“Leon? What the hell's going on? Where is Floretta?" yelled Alden who had just arrived, through that teleportation.
"He is there, Your Majesty," replied Leon Hazel, pointing towards the bustling village square. The brownish-red-haired handsome young man was sitting casually on the branch of a giant oak tree.
"Why are you staying here?" said Alden in a high tone.
Leon suddenly confronted the vampire king who was about to move to help the wife, from the brutal attack of the thugs.
"It seems we need to teach him a lesson, Your Majesty. In order for Her Royal Highness Princess Floretta to be a little deterred from the palace,” Leon said without releasing the wrench of his hand on Alden's shoulder.
"Stay it's dangerous, Leon. How could he beat six men by himself" Alden said.
“Who said there were six? Look, there's only one handsome young man nearby,” point Leon again. “Let's if he's really desperate, I'll come help him,”.
Meanwhile in the village square ...
“Let's play with me, pretty girl. I'll unseal your woman. Just so you know, I am more powerful than His Majesty the King,” whispered one handsome young man full of seduction. His hand spread across Floretta's abdomen, and moved upward.
Hiduprak! With two quick moves, Floretta managed to knock out the young man.
“What's great? Just like this you have fallen,” sneer Florettta, while pointing his knife at the perverted young man earlier.
“Damn it!” the young man tried to stand up.
Pork! Once again, Floretta paralyzed the man's movements.
“Wow! It turns out that he was better than I thought,” exclaimed Leon, seeing Floretta's action is very unexpected. Alden was astonished to see his wife, who turned out to be very good at martial arts.
“You think we'll just give up?”
The men of great stature who had been away from Floretta, now came back again while carrying some weapons.
“I'm not afraid!” floretta said as she raised the butcher knife up high.
With all his strength left, Floretta fought them all. His moves look very professional. Floretta was able to defeat some of the vampires using only a butcher knife, and a perfect martial arts move.
“Looks like he doesn't need our help, Your Majesty. His martial and sword skills are very good" Leon said. “What noble purposefully chose a brave woman like her?” ask Leon curious.
“Ngak, tuh. I just found out that he can defend himself and use a sword, uh a knife well,” Alden said.
The vampire king was amazed to see the many hidden abilities of his wife. Floretta is not a weak woman and can only cry when she gets into trouble. The petite beautiful woman had a myriad of wits, to escape from all the obstacles that approached her.
“You want to try and finish us all off? Enough of the fooling around. Our group consists of hundreds of people, and you are alone.”
Argento pulled Floretta's long hair violently. Several other men also gripped Floretta's hand tightly, and grabbed the knife she was holding.
Suddenly a man wearing royal clothes, standing in front of Floretta who was struggling to escape.
“Y-His Highness?” Floretta was surprised to see Alden Black appear there. “Did anyone report my whereabouts?” think Floretta again.
“That's His Majesty the king, right? Why is the king here?”
The villagers just watched Floretta being tortured, whispered to each other and slowly moved away from there. They were afraid of being dragged into legal trouble, for the king had come.
“Sorry, Your Grace. But this woman herself chose to escape from the palace, so this woman is ours. According to the law in our kingdom, if someone escapes from the palace .. ”
“I said stop!" Snapped Alden once again. “I'm not as cruel as Prince Raven Black. But if someone dares to disturb and hurt my wife, I will be more cruel than Prince Raven,”.
Alden's jaw was hardened. Both of his eyes were reddened, and his sharp fangs were clearly visible from the sides of his lips. Alden's expression was exactly the same as it was a few days ago, when Floretta had just come to the palace.
But somehow this time Floretta wasn't afraid to see it. She felt safe with her husband by her side. Unknowingly, her tears flowed profusely on her pale cheeks.
Either Floretta's feelings alone, or the air around him is getting hotter to make him sweat. The vampires who were troubling Floretta looked in pain. Their skin blisters. But they have not given up on getting the human blood.
Alden spread out his hands, then made a forward punching-like move. Both of his legs formed strong horses. From Alden's palm came a very bright and dazzling light.
The duarrr! There was an explosion, to splash snow on the ground everywhere. The vampires were driven far back. They also look badly injured. Surprisingly, Floretta who was closest to Alden was fine.
Leon Hazel and the royal soldiers rush to capture the vampires. While the other soldiers secure the female vampires and the uninvolved children.
“Rescaping from the palace is indeed considered to betray the kingdom. Unless he runs away to save himself, without harming anyone and depriving anything of the palace,” Alden said after all the troublemakers were handcuffed.
“But you must also remember, injuring a member of the royal family can be punishable by life and even death,” Alden continued.
“But all this is wrong from the royal members as well. We live poor and hungry because we rarely get decent food, and have trouble getting a job,” said the handsome young man who had almost desecrated Floretta.
Alden took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. Both of his eyebrows were linked to the sight of the little vampires looking thin and wearing tattered clothes. Older vampires also look faint and limp, like for days without eating.
The vampire king admitted that not all provinces in his kingdom were prosperous. Plus some local officials who corruption and let the people displaced.
“I'm sorry, if I haven't been a good king like my father. But I didn't come here empty-handed. I brought a little help of clothes for the winter. Tens of liters of premium milk and blood, and dozens of cows to be farmed here,” Alden said in a low tone.
The vampire king also slightly lowered his body as an apology. All the vampires whispered to each other, because it was a very rare occurrence. The highly respected members of the kingdom were precisely bowing their bodies before the commoners.
“Ah, I also want to introduce someone officially. She is Her Royal Highness Princess Floretta Black, the future queen of this kingdom. Please respect him, as you respect the rest of the kingdom,” Alden Black said to all the vampires there.
