Defeat - Victory's

Kihan, Third Prince

A pale-faced man with a mixture of travel dust, the grumpy and dirty clothes that were filled with tears everywhere felt his lips trembling withstanding hunger continued to walk chaotically like a drunken person who had almost lost his balance and consciousness. His feet stepped closer to an old hut that was awakened from an old wooden structure. The old cottage that stood alone in a dark valley that no one wanted to touch.

His hand wrapped in long sleeves but still unable to hide the scratches from his hand with the dried blood knocked on the old door in front of him almost powerless.

A thin old man with wrinkled skin showed no fat there and hair filled with white opened the door. His slightly whitened eyes clearly saw the young man in front of his old house.

The chaotic appearance of the long and impressed journey was not an ordinary journey shown by the unkempt wounds of the young man's body visible very clearly in the old eyes.

I don't know who and what the purpose of the young man's arrival in his old cottage was, but in the young man's eyes, he saw clearly a very strong and unquestioning determination.

Hunger and trembling lips were not so much that the young man was ignoring the wounds on his body at this time. He was completely focused on the old man who was in front of him. His spirit was burning more than usual.

"My name is Kihan" he said, introducing himself in a good tone that does not indicate he is experiencing problems of tiredness, hunger or pain.

"Third Prince of the Kingdom of Qirthas. I've come here to borrow your power, Mr. Kaedius. To take over the Kingdom of Qirthas from the king and the crown prince," he added directly to the core and purpose he had brought here.

The old man looked at Kihan flatly for a few seconds before he responded to Kihan waiting for him to speak.

"I don't understand what you mean, son," he said. "It looks like you've misunderstood some things. If you want to find strength, don't come to an old man who is already vulnerable and just waiting for his death to pick him up" he added.

"Mr Kaedius. You may be a royal criminal hiding as an old man to avoid the royal army. With me, you can be yourself without hiding behind this old shell. As long as you help me become king, I'll give you whatever you want" said Kihan confidently that his interlocutor understood well what he was talking about.

Again the old man looked at Kihan with an unusual look. He smiled strangely at Kihan's words. He knows well about humans. Man cannot give anything that others want.

"I'm sure you already know that the great chaos that is happening everywhere right now is the obvious reason. I will take over the throne and become the new king. I will exterminate the demons who have been resurrected and freed by the king and crown prince from the seal that locked them away for thousands of years" Kihan said with ambition inside the hut.

Kaedius smiled underestimating Kihan's ambition that was too high and was truly a dream and a delusion. "Young people. There's something you need to understand very well here. The difference between human and demonic powers is huge. The chance of winning for a human is a big zero" Kaedius said, looking at Kihan.

In the affairs of life, Caedius had experienced much. If just dropping a king from the throne and raising a new king could defeat the demons easily, then it was too easy. The future would not be what it is today if the concept were like that.

"You can't just decide, Mr. Kaedius," replied Kihan.

Kaedius became astonished by the response given by Kihan. He thought Kihan would think and become doubtful, but this young man did not think there. "What you say is completely unreasonable. If the demon clan is as strong as your praise, then why didn't they win thousands of years ago?" ask Kihan.

Caedius's mouth opened slightly to Kihan's question. It was as if he really did not expect to get this kind of result.

"They were defeated by an ordinary human king. It only takes one person to get started. As a Prince of the Qirthas Kingdom, I am also responsible for this mess. In this day and age, I will begin. Even if I die with defeat, at least I will leave behind those who want to win. They will continue it. I hope you don't let your soul dry up and don't let your soul be devoured by the Devils,"

"I can see ambition and arrogance from within your eyes Third Prince. But I like it. Let's try the possibility you're talking about. I also want to know, whether you can surpass the king who sealed the demons in the past or you will only be the joke material for the demons. I, the Captain of Hidden Sin, will lend you my power Prince Kihan" Kaedius said, revealing the real figure of him.

A man who was completely different from the old man. The vulnerable old man is just a shell. Kihan looked surprised to see the real figure of Kaedius. He looked young just a few years old. Kihan believes Kaedius looks to be the same age as Crown Prince Andre, his eldest brother. Kaidius became unsure if this was the real figure of the leader of the fugitive group with the most expensive price, Hidden Sin.

It is not important that the original figure of Caedius. Most importantly he had obtained a sapphire blue-eyed man who looked to reflect justice and destruction. Those eyes had already explained everything that this person was truly Kaedius. Kaedius the Dirty Demon captain of the Hidden Sin.
