PRECIOUS PRINCESS

TWENTY NINE

Ran looked back at his master,

"It wasn't a birthmark, it was a seal" Ran said startlingly at Xiao Lan and Kuma.

•••

"What seal is Ran?" it was not Xiao Lan who asked that but Kuma,

"From the beginning I've seen something wrong with your body, Lord. It's like there's something covered up from your body but I don't know what it is because my knowledge was low at the time"

"What seal is in my body?" xiao Lan asked curiously,

"Star seal, you're not a random person, Lord"

"What do you mean?" xiao Lan asked curiously,

"I have no right to tell you, Lord. When the time comes you'll find out"

What the fuck is this why Ran looks to hide something from him he is also asked to wait for the time to answer everything. Was this the karma from him covering up his identity to the Li empire and waiting for them to find out at the right time?

Today is the day of the appointment of a new chairman in the combat group. No one knew about this except Xiao Lan and Ho even the person who was appointed as Ho's replacement didn't know either. He is only told that if he will get a very important task and must not refuse it he will also accept it.

However Ho remains an ordinary man, he feels cold sweat pouring from all over his body,

"Actually what's my fault reine" her inner self in the heart,

The entire Gold Tiger members had already gathered but Ho asked once again if they had really gathered, already,

"We've all gathered, chief. There were only a few people outside who were keeping the headquarters safe"

He was still called chairman by the people around him when soon his position was lost his heart grimaces, grimacing,

"Don't forget to make a change if the party is half the way they certainly want to enjoy it" said Ho patted the person's shoulder and then went to meet the reine,

"Everything has gathered, reine" Ho told Xiao Lan, who was looking at the scene outside his window,

"Okay, get started. Are you ready?" asked Xiao Lan,

"Sure, let's reine" she said steadily while Xiao Lan only smiled behind her golden mask,

The noisy group of humans became silent when they saw someone wearing a golden mask coming out of the room.

"Do you know what you are gathered here for" Xiao Lan asked flatly to them,

"Answer, no reine" they said in unison,

"Is this Jun here?" xiao Lan asked again, the person called by his name came forward fearlessly,

"Do you know why I called you here?" ask Xiao Lan again,

"I was asked to perform all the tasks that Reine gave me"

"Are you sure?" xiao Lan asked coldly,

Jun started to get nervous because of Xiao Lan's tone but he acted as calmly as possible,

"What if I tell you to kill Ho?" everyone was made shocked by Xiao Lan's statement,

"I will definitely do it" he said cut off with the words of Xiao Lan,

"Do it" he said back coldly,

"But you have to tell me the exact reason why I should kill Chairman Ho, if he is proven to be a traitor to Reine then I will kill him" Jun added,

"If I have no reason?" asked Xiao Lan who started to smile cynically behind her mask,

"Then I won't do it" Jun said steadily, saying,

"Well, you dare to oppose me huh" Xiao Lan said flatly, very flat more than usual even the person who heard it would be hard to swallow her saliva,

"I wouldn't dare oppose reine, we've all made a pact to only kill people who are proven guilty and not hurt innocent people let alone kill them" he breathed in,

"I also believe Chairman Ho will not do anything to Reine or Gold Tiger" he said again sounding steady,

"What's the point of saying that Ho never messed with me and Gold Tiger? Though you weren't always by her side" Xiao Lan asked sarcastically,

"Because he's the chairman of my group, however, I have to keep believing in him, wouldn't it be the same if we didn't trust the chairman in our group that we didn't trust the Reine who had entrusted him with it?" he smiled with a thin smile, though,

Xiao Lan smiled with satisfaction behind her mask and then faced the group of humans in front of her,

"Have you heard what he said?" tanyakene,

"I replied, we heard reine"

"What did he say?"

"We have to trust our chiefs because they've been sent by Reine himself"

"Good, but that's not the answer I want" the people there exchanged a clueless look before Xiao Lan returned to her voice,

"You have to trust each other because it's people's trust in you that makes you strong. Also keep that trust in yourself lest you renege on the trust you've been given"

"We understand, reine" they said back in unison,

"And as for you Jun" Xiao Lan directed her gaze at the man beside her,

"I'm appointing you head of combat"

Silent,

"W-what about chairman Ho?"
