Morning Dew's

70

Yuki's back and shoulders were reddened by the blood coming out of her body. 

"Call Serfa" Prince Riana ordered the guards on guard.

Meanwhile out there are voices from the soldiers chasing after the cloaked figure who has been shooting Yuki.

King Bardana was furious but He hid his anger. The daughter of her best friend was near miss in front of her eyes, while the person who harmed her did all that in the palace, even as the royal guests gathered. Obviously he feels harassed.

Reverend Serfa came quickly when he received the report from the Royal Guards. Fortunately, He followed Prince Riana to the palace of King Bardana even though He did not enter the hall. Serfa was looking for a file report on black magic that was written by Grand Reverend Hiro when the Guards came and reported the attack.

When He came, Princess Yuki was inside Prince Riana's arms. Prince Riana's face was dull. The Prince's hand hugged Princess Yuki's blood-splitting back. 

Reverend Serfa immediately approached Yuki to check. Takes Yuki aside to a corner of the room away from the crowd. Meanwhile Prince Riana continued to stand nearby. He did not leave Yuki at all.

"The person I saw earlier, was the same person in my dream. He killed them all" Yuki whispered to Reverend Serfa in a trembling voice.

Reverend Serfa gave Yuki a glass of water that had been given the potion. Yuki drank it straight away. His feelings are much more relaxed. The pain in his shoulders and back is reduced, not throbbing as before.

"Only ordinary arrows, There is no poison in Princess Yuki's body. After the treatment, the Princess will be fine" Reverend Serfa reported the results of the examination to Prince Riana.

Prince Riana picked up the potion in Serfa's hand, two servants spread a cloth covering the eyes of the people around them as the Prince lowered Yuki's clothes. Reverend Serfa stood outside on guard if anyone approached.

After Yuki's wounds were cleaned and treated, Prince Riana helped bandage and tidy up Yuki's clothes again. He puts his robe over Yuki's shoulder to warm Yuki up.

The nobility of Xasfir reentered the meeting hall with arrows and bows in hand. Yuki and Prince Riana returned to the center of the hall approaching King Bardana.

"I only found this on the balcony of the palace. The man immediately left when he was found out, while the soldiers were still chasing and combing throughout the palace" he said, showing a bow and arrow in his hand.

"Add troops to.search, I want Him brought before me life or death" Prince Riana said firmly.

"Prince, I've prepared an army. We can go back to the palace now !" Said the Asry Noble who emerged from behind the back of the Xasfir Nobles. Everything looks tense. Anger is on every face.

"Your Majesty, Forgive Us, We asked for permission to leave early, return to the palace" Prince Riana asked King Bardana. 

King Bardana nodded his head understanding the situation. 

"Strictly escort, whoever that person is, he is brave enough to attack the King's palace even near all of us" the King said.

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty. We say retreat" said Prince Riana while saluting the others behind her.

Yuki was still bowing to pay his respects to King Bardana, when Prince Riana turned around and directly carried his body.

"I can walk alone" Yuki refused trying to prevent Prince Riana's actions.

But Prince Riana did not hear. He carried Yuki easily, walking away from the palace hall. Seeing the Prince's face that did not want to be denied, Yuki undoed the intention of protesting. He was silent and did not fight.

They reached the front yard where the horse carriage was waiting.

Reverend Serfa got on the horse-drawn carriage. He was on guard in case of an attack using black magic. The nobility of Xasfir and the nobleman of Voldermont escorted from the side on horseback followed by the soldiers. The noble Asry sat down with the chariot driver to watch the movements on the streets.

Yuki lay on her stomach on a long sofa without a backrest, while Rena was smearing medicine onto her back.

The view outside is beautiful. The sun was shining brightly, the light pierced through the room where Yuki was. The weather today is in stark contrast to what happened last night. 

The journey back from the King's palace felt very long and gripping. Fortunately, they arrived safely without any interruption. Arriving at the palace, Prince Riana immediately put Yuki into the room and added a few guards around the room. He also asked all the soldiers in the Prince's palace to be on standby. Patrols are carried out in turn.

"Hopefully the wound didn't leave a mark" Rena grumbled softly behind Yuki. 

Yuki silence. Not replying to Rena's words. He doesn't want to argue. His mind was filled with last night's events. Where he almost got killed. 

Now it was clear, the target of the shootout was Yuki. His blood is capable of awakening such great power. The person who controls it can rule the world easily. Who is not tempted ?.

Yuki could not imagine how many more lives were lost to him.  Until when this madness will continue. And how did it end ?.

Yuki was deep in thought. Trying to unravel the complicated threads wrapped around him uncontrollably.

"Ohhhh!!, slow down Rena, why is your energy like a coolie.." Yuki was strangled as the bandage ties on her back were firmly fastened. When He turned around, He found Prince Riana sitting next to him. Rena stood awkwardly behind Prince Riana. 

Yuki was only wearing a bathrobe, her hair was still damp. He was wearing nothing but a robe that covered half his body. Even as Yuki turned around, her robe slumped down almost to Yuki's elbow. Rushing Yuki got up and tidied up her robe nervously. He did not expect the arrival of Prince Riana at this moment.

Rena who understood the situation, tidied up the equipment and put it in the basket. With a professional attitude, He bowed away then left Yuki and Prince Riana both inside the room.

Yuki sat down misbehavingly, She did not dare to think about how many Prince Riana had seen just now.

"The Prince's Tumben this early is in the palace" Yuki said trying to open up the chat. She unnoticeably shifted her seat slightly away from Prince Riana. Put some distance between the two.

"How are you doing ?" Prince Riana asked calmly.

"I'm doing fine. The medicine of Reverend Serfa is very effective" 

"Your wounds will be impregnated, but with the medicine from Serfa its traces will not be too clearly seen" explained Prince Riana again.

Yuki nodded his head understandingly. "I've been lucky enough to still be alive until now, this former doesn't bother me too much. After all, as humans we can't be greedy" 

Prince Riana looked at Yuki in astonishment. "If it was another Princess, they would have cried out in confusion just because of a single point of scarring on her body"

"Thank God Prince, I'm not of that kind" Yuki's origin.
