The Goddess and the Cursed Prince

27. Back to Meet

"Done!" alchyls shouted with a proud smile.

"What are you doing?" sam asked, he saw Alchlys looking busy after taking off his robe.

Alchyls shows two neatly arranged stones inside a glass ball, "I'll give this to you when you get back."

Sam approached the glass ball made by Alchyls, he was a little surprised because one of the stones inside was a rare precious stone.

"Where did you get this stone?" ask sam.

"There was a beautiful woman giving this stone to me, it was strange to say this stone was for a gift but it was given to me" he replied while cleaning the dust around the ball.

"Woman?"

Alchyls nodded, "Yes, I don't know her face for sure, but I think she's very pretty, her body is full of black spots, like burning and she has a warm smile" Alchyls said excitedly.

Spotting black and a warm smile, Sam remembered something, "Is he with a servant?"

"True, did uncle know him?" Not until Sam answered, the man darted away leaving Alchlys who was still curious.

Sam opened his sister's study, but no one was there.

"Damn it, has Chriss left yet?" inner wondering. Sam is convinced that the woman Alchyls was referring to was Ijima.

👑

Chriss chatted with other kings who were present at the party, occasionally he glanced at the crowd of women there hoping he could be reunited with Ijima.

Many times Chrisa was reprimanded for not focusing when spoken to, because it was tired of Chriss decided to leave the kings and then approached the table of dishes, he took water and drank it slowly.

Suddenly Chriss felt the warm aura he had felt before, the man quickly turned his head back and forth tracing the aura.

No doubt, the woman he was looking for was around, Chriss put glass on the table and then stepped away.

A cool woman joked with the officials of another city, the white dress and robe covering her arms riveted Chriss. The burden on his back instantly disappeared seeing his smile. What a miracle of God, Chriss met his poem.

"Ijima," call Chriss in your heart. He took a quick step to grab the woman's hand.

Duars

The magic explosion occurred, Chriss slightly rewinded his body, "Your Majesty," the woman said involuntarily. It turns out that he really is Ijima.

Ijima ran away from the party of course Chriss chased after him, he did not want to lose again.

Grep

Chriss manages to clasp Ijima's arm, the woman's robe revealing a black blotch that makes the man's red eyes round.

Shortly after the magic explosion occurred again, Chriss rewinded without releasing his grip.

"Don't go, Ijima!"

Ijima continued to rebel, "Let go of my hand."

The magic explosion kept happening, this was the magic Ijima created to prohibit people from touching it without permission.

A light appeared on the back of Chriss's hand until the man let go of his grip.

Dayang Annie held Ijima and then made a magic circle on the ground they poked.

Just as Chriss was about to approach, Annie's lady-in-waiting brandished the sword he had hidden under his black robe, "Don't you dare approach, Your Majesty. This is an order you must follow."

Blase

With a single flash of light, the two of them disappeared, Chriss panicked when they had just met. Ijima looked different not as bright as before. Just like her when she received the Geni monster for the first time.

"You owe me an explanation!" inner Chriss growled. Chriss wants to know what agreement his father made.

👑

Chriss broke through the door of King Kodama's room, the man was casually drinking warm tea before the sound of the door slamming jolted him.

"Thanks! You know the rules, "remember King Kodama.

Chriss ignored his father's words, he pulled the collar of King Kodama's shirt, Chriss seemed to forget that the man in front of him was his father.

"What did you do to Ijima?!" he asked with a loud voice, his breathing was irregular and his eyes were like restraining deep emotions.

King Kodama touched Chriss's arm, "What's the matter? What the hell happened to you?"

"Don't beat around the bush, dad. I just met with Ijima, Ijima's change I know clearly!" snapped it.

"Let go of your hand, I will explain" said King Kodama, Chriss loosening his grunts. They both sat facing.

"My goal is to get you married to the monster in your body, Chriss. At first King Oda refused because it concerned his daughter's life, I continued to urge and threaten King Oda until he agreed," continued King Kodama who was listened to seriously by his son.

"What was the threat I made that King Oda approved of the marriage?" ask Chriss.

"Secret war on the kingdom of Asteria and cut off alliances with it" replied King Kodama as is.

Chriss's jaw hardened, he didn't expect his father to do that, "Then what agreement did Ijima make?"

"Reliminating the Geni monster and giving birth to Neoma's heir. I thought Ijima would put the monster on another human body but in fact the woman was very gentle, she sacrificed herself into a container of Monster Geni where the monster power collided with her."

Chriss's body shook, his tongue was a little too faint to speak, "J-so, that monster is in his body?"

King Kodama nodded.

"Why did you make that deal?! Ijima is a woman! I've got to take over the monster again soon" Chriss said.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect Ijima to do that. This is the second time a woman has saved you" said King Kodama as if recalling a memory.

"Other than Ijima, who else?"

"Your mother, Queen Ixora."
