The Romance Of The Kingdom

Chapter 31: The Two Souls

Pov 1's. Abhlesh

Have you ever heard the story of the sleeping princess. A princess cursed by a witch and had to sleep for tens or even hundreds of years. The princess had been asleep for hundreds of years just because of a curse. Then a prince rode white and took off his curse.

The story sounds very romantic and full of happiness. But you know, in his sleep not a single person knew of his condition. People only see the romantic story of him meeting the handsome Prince. No one cared about the suffering he was going through in his sleep.

That's like destiny. Sometimes people just see you as something big. While to get to that point no one knows how much blood you have to sacrifice. Like me, no one can save me from the curse. Because I am the Prince and the curse also happens to me.

Now I can only look at the face of the Cardinal who fell asleep because of the magic I gave. He knows all the secrets of my soul with just one look. It doesn't matter to me if all this is exposed or known to others. But what if they think I'm the killer of their prince.

The knock on the door broke my hayal circuit. A white-haired man with a slightly sleepy face entered the room. That man is Emerson, one of the K**nights I trust.

"Prince, how is he? are you sure you can do it?"

I smiled at the words he said. Emerson did give me authority on interrogation and information gathering. But he is still unstable and it could be that Emerson 'destroys' Eve with all her methods.

"Specifically for him to let it be my business, what is the condition of the attack?"

My question made Emerson smile and the man was standing next to me. Poor manners and whimsical traits are a hallmark of Emerson.

"Prince, can we speed up the assault? the Theocratic capital is only a few hundred kilometers from Aneta, I think if it moves tonight then-"

"We'll get there at dawn?"

Emerson nodded and his face looked delighted. The man always makes me dizzy with his wild nature that sometimes gets out of control.

"Hector."

I mentioned Hektor's name because he was outside the room. They are both more predictable when something catches their attention.

"Sorry Your Majesty."

Hektor came in and the two of them were now seen waiting for a response from me. Seeing the way the two of them were acting made me sigh and stand up.

"Prepare everything, and leave some troops to guard the city of Aneta, attack the capital of Suez I leave it to you."

The words they were waiting for finally came out of my mouth. Once again I had to take off the non-retractable bullet. They are both Knights, their job is to obey all the commands and duties I give. For them it is their duty to me.

Stained with blood and taking the lives of others was common to them. But who is responsible for everything. A bullet won't come off if the owner doesn't pull the trigger. They were just innocent people and I was the one who made their reputation terrible.

Now this room is back. Hektor and Emerson had already left this room. They did everything I told them to do and the Airship started moving towards Suez city.

I stood in front of the mirror in this room. I saw on that reflection a handsome face with beautiful blue crystal eyes. A perfect body as well as an extremely viscous noble aura were reflected by that mirror.

I asked the question to my reflection in the mirror. The face that many women may adore now looks moody. My mind was immersed in the reflection of a mirror that pointed everything at one person. That guy is what got me back to doing all this.

If fate hadn't brought us together, maybe the Kaspian would have been just an empire with very advanced technology. I brought it all from my old world. A world that has concepts of weapons and vehicles that can only be realized in this world. Everything I created was only to defend the Kaspian from another kingdom's attack. But look what I did, I made this land come back in a terrible war.

"Why don't you just die!"

The mirror before me cracked after receiving a blow from my hand. Fresh blood came out from the wound which now seemed to add to my pain. But this body is terrible, no matter how many times I try to injure it all will return to its original state.

I can only once again breathe. My steps led me out of the room and into the control room of this thing. In that place all the movements of my troops were visible. It all points to the capital of Suez, formerly known as the holy city of Gaia.

The city was the target of the stage Gaia and I were playing on. The god may now laugh at me chasing after him and instead spin on his palm.

"All the troops, don't let the city of Suez avenge our attack, destroy all their air defenses and bring down the troops at some point."

Hektor's voice guiding the movement of the troops echoed in the room. Hektor is indeed a reliable man in the affairs of the movement of troops. But again I had to make him take another man's life and go home hugging his daughter with a bloody hand.

"All preparations have been made, Your Majesty."

Hektor's words made me realize that this army and the Kaspian do need a leader. Although they must bleed and become killing machines, they will do everything for the sake of the Caspian welfare. I as Prince and their king should be much stronger and lead them.

"Start the movement and remember .. no war crimes in the Caspian forces, rape, looting and killing of civilians are not allowed, do you all understand!"

My words were met with an excited cry from the entire Caspian army.

"Start the Suez clearance operation!"

One sentence from me made dozens of airships fly away from the fallen city of Aneta. All the food supplies and precious things I had not touched at all. The people of Theocracy are too miserable with the changing conditions of Theocracy. Even one of the former Cardinals named Jhon happily opened the doors of the city of Aneta when he found out Eve fell to Emerson.

The man fought with Hektor and almost lost his life. However, John surrendered and gave the city of Aneta to the Caspians. When he saw the Caspian troops giving food to the starving people, the man knelt down. He realized that theocracy must be abolished. Now the man arranged for the distribution of food to the people and restored the city to its original state.

While Eve, that woman is obviously still needed for my final goal of coming to Theocracy. The most talented former cardinal and he was one of the keys to meeting Gaia. That night the entire Caspian army marched towards the city of Suez without a single person being aware. The movement of the air that was so strong became a scourge for all my opponents. Now I'm just counting down and getting ready to meet the creatures I hate most on the whole land.
