THE LORD OF THE OTHER WORLD

Chapter 34: The Sharp Leafed Man

"Thank you for driving us, Prince, but I'm sorry to say, we have to split up here."

"Is Miss Lily sure she doesn't need my help?" Prince Arslan let out a heavy sigh, looking at the woman before him with a feeling of reluctance to leave. "Alright, I don't want to force and even interfere with your plans and others. However, if one day you encounter any difficulties, look for me at the warrior training camp."

"I'll remember it."

Lily smiled faintly before turning over and walking away following her comrades in front. Leaving the back of the body that could only be seen by the prince from behind, it grew further and made his heart become very lonely.

"Miss Lily, you really know how to frustrate me," the prince said with an amused smile. He turned his body, then continued his words. "No problem, all I can do right now is wait for him to come back."

It's very ironic on Prince Arslan's side. Remembering that he had tried many times to approach the woman and steal her attention. But unfortunately, all of his efforts seemed to have no impact on their closeness. The problem is that what she doesn't know is actually the hidden fact that Lily isn't a female figure she can have until anytime. Because, be it Lily, or any other shadow creature in the same entourage, all of them are basically rare beauties that only their masters have.

"I don't understand, why are you still being so friendly in front of that man?" While walking and matching the steps of the friend, Becky rolled her eyeballs, then put a stale expression on the face. "Pretending to be sweet on the surface, isn't that exhausting? Moreover, before you threatened me to stop dealing with the humans who had mocked me, was that really necessary?"

Becky again felt annoyed after she recalled the incident in the meeting room some time ago.

"You mean the echelons?"

"you reckon? Who else?"

"Becky, you must remember that Master entrusted us with this mission. As his emissary, wherever we go and how we act will have an impact on the reputation of my Lord. Moreover, I was given full responsibility by my Master to make a decision when necessary. I'm holding you back from acting impulsively not because I want to, I don't like humans with greedy nature and disrespectful behavior like that."

"You're so confused, Lily. You said you didn't like it, but you protected her?"

"Wear a little bit of your brainpower, Becky." Becca from behind satirized with a cold soft tone.

"Do you think you'd be happy to hear that we're being cruel to them? After a long while I settled down by my Master's side, many things I understood about Master's will," Lily said followed with a small smile. He then patted Becky softly on the shoulder as he continued his words.

"Didn't we all want this mission to end with satisfactory results? So be patient, our real enemy is waiting ahead. They would be much more fun to deal with when compared to those clowns. You can have fun on the battlefield."

Switching places in the western continent, precisely in the middle of the wild forest Razeen.

The sunlight is so bright, entering between the cracks of the leaves and highlighting everything in the depths of the forest. No exception some figures behind a black hood that is now hiding behind a tree. They saw faces that were so pale, breathless, and sweat soaked all over their bodies.

"Aleena, go without me. You must continue to fight for our revenge against the people of that sacred temple!" The blond man said as he opened the hood that covered his head. Revealing her true appearance, a handsome face with a pair of distinctive pointy ears belonged only to the forest fairy race.

"Stop talking nonsense! Or I'll be really mad if you say it one more time."

"I told you, hurry up and go! Please, just listen to this one time from your brother. There's no more time. Take Kala and the others away from here! I'll try to find a way to buy time so you can go far and be out of their reach."

"How can you do that? If the condition of your foot is seriously injured like this! Even to stand up you can't!"

"I promise I'll catch up with you."

"You lied."

"Aleen!"

"I don't want to! I won't leave without you, brother! You stupid brother! You—"

One of the elves did something to Aleena's body, causing her to fall unconscious in the arms of her brother.

"Please, take care of Aleena and Kala for me. Can you?"

"The Prince's wishes are the reason why I can still be here. The prince has raised my family and has saved me from suffering." The man smiled with an ugly expression, trying to hold back the tears from coming out of his hazel-colored eyes.

After all, it would be embarrassing for a knight if it was easy to cry.

"Prince Yasha please rest assured, I swear under the will of Goddess Marica that I will protect Prince Kala and Princess Aleena with my life at stake."

"Alright, that way I can calmly leave both of them. Now, take Aleena and the others away."

"I understand. See you soon, Prince. I pray for your safety."
