The Rising Sun

6 Voldermons

"That's just your feeling" I said comfortingly. To be honest at that time I had not felt the strangeness that Yuki meant as I now realized. I thought Yuki was too tense in this war that He became sensitive.

Yuki. He looked at Nara with a sad face.

"Lord Voldermon..If in this battle I don't survive. Promise to look after Prince Sera and Nara" Yuki said with a pleading look.

I drank the wine straight from the bottle, trying to ease the emotions entrenched in my heart. If I think about it again. Sera and Yuki were already preparing for her death and they both asked me to look after one of them. What am I, then ?. Child guard ?.

"You're here ?"

I turned. Xasfir walked over with a tired face. He leaned right near me. Take a bottle of wine and open the lid with his teeth.

"How is it today" I asked as Xasfir sipped the wine quickly.

"I'll take it down as one of the worst days of my life" Xasfir sighed. "Argueda closes the relationship with us. I even heard the King ordered that Yuki be taken to Argueda to undergo royal court"

"Riana won't let it"

"We're not ready for another battle yet"

"Nobody is ever ready in battle"

"Yes..Youre right. Have you seen Lekky ?"

"Yes,********it was seriously injured but the holy priest was not too worried. I have faith He will recover as he did"

"It's a miracle he survived the explosion"

I didn't tell Xasfir that Lekky had such great power that He survived. It seems Lekky once drank Yuki's blood. I will ask Yuki someday if this is with Yuki's knowledge.

"What is Riana's plan to deal with" Xasfir looked at Argueda's entourage who was walking into the holy temple. Sera has been placed in a special room. With super tight care. I was refused to see it.

I realized that if Argueda was grieving, they would be more sensitive to contact with Us. I don't want to be too imposing that can create unnecessary disputes.

"He hasn't said much. But clearly He asks that We support his steps in this regard. Xasfir....I don't really want to ask. But now I feel like I have to ask him. Are you okay ?"

"Marsha"

Marsha was hanged before the day of departure. Riana herself took the lead as the sentence went on. He was acting indifferent to the woman who had been accompanying him all along.

I wasn't too surprised when Riana was being indifferent to women including Marsha. Because all this time I've only found one woman who makes Riana care about her so much. Riana did many things for the Woman to be by her side. Often He crosses his own boundaries for the sake of the woman.

What surprised me other than when Riana desperately impregnated Yuki for the kingdom to give strong support if We had to face Argueda, was that Riana with her own hands was able to kill the woman who faithfully accompanied her. I don't like Marsha. She's gorgeous. But only physically. I feel like He has an unhealthy soul. Sadistic. That's his picture.

She is obsessed with Riana. Even I heard He once broke the face of a beautiful waiter just for catching the waiter staring at Riana. But unfortunately, Although many things are done to make Riana interested in him. Riana never turned her face to Marsha.

Perhaps this is why He hates Yuki so much that he sends assassins to finish off Yuki several times.

I'm speechless. Looking back on what happened in the last years. Besides Marsha, there are some people who send assassins to finish off Yuki. Made me deploy a lot of people to protect her secretly. But it wasn't just me who gave him an escort. Sera, who at that time still recognized Yuki as Lekky Darmount's servant, did not hesitate to tell her best man to escort Yuki secretly. Even Riana herself had apparently also done it long before I suspected the Servant was Yuki.

Did Riana know before that it was Yuki ?. If not wrong Sera immediately recognized him when they passed by on the stairs. There was a horrendous incident at the time. When Lekky appears and points a gun at Sera, Yang attempts to remove Yuki's veil. So, Maybe Riana also already recognized Yuki herself early, Just like Sera, however hard Yuki covers her identity.

If Yuki knew how many lives were killed behind him to protect him, he would be shocked.

"She's actually a good woman. But the circumstances that made it so" said Xasfir disperse my daydreams. Bringing me back to reality.

"I'm sorry for what happened to him"

"I had warned her from the beginning that She would be hurt if she expected Riana. But he insisted. He was so sure of himself. I was a little relieved when He decided to surrender and marry the King of another country. But when He returns and finds Riana with Yuki. I see She's no longer the woman I know"

"I heard her case was opened again, because there was a suspicion Marsha poisoned her husband to death"

"Investigation has proven it" Xasfir said heavily. "It seems that the news of Riana having a lover became the trigger. She kills her husband and returns to Garduete in the hope that Riana will return to him. But Marsha was wrong. She doesn't want to realize that Riana never loved him"

"I feel lucky you didn't marry her. I dare say this because you're my best friend"

Xasfir smiled before his gaze stiffened. He looked straight at Riana's room. I followed her gaze and found Yuki had woken up. He was having a discussion with Riana.
