Two Faced Princess

Chapter 16's

Shigong!

The sound of a long sword was emitted from its scabbard. The sword was shining through the reflection of the moonlight. With the sword in hand Uriel approached the edge of the bed to look at her target.

“... young girl?”

Upon seeing his murder target his stomach churned. 

A girl who is only 16 years old. The girl was sleeping in her big bed. Her shiny hair was spread on the pillow.

“Safiro son of a bitch-“Uriel cursed Safiro. As usual, he was only told the location of his target. But this is more than an unpleasant mission. For Uriel killing was common. Uriel was made into a killer. However, Uriel, who had killed and slaughtered many of his enemies, had never put his sword in a helpless girl. Uriel looked at the girl and sighed.

“I don't know what you've done so Petra Liefer hates you so much.”.

His face was filled with pity that he had never shown.

“I can't help you, You just weren't lucky.” Uriel sighed once more and He set his decision.

“If I don't kill you then I'll die with a pain you can't even imagine. I'm sorry but my life is more important than yours”. His eyes glistened coldly. The pity that only appeared for a moment disappeared instantly.

“May you rest in peace”. The sword in his hand glistened in the moonlight. The sword swung in the air and landed right on the poor girl's neck. 

Shing-in! Thud-h! But just before the sword touched the girl's neck the sword Uriel seemed to hit something and bounce off. 

“What...”Uriel frowned. It was strange that Uriel's sword did not move as he wished. Once again Uriel raised her sword and swung it right at the girl. 

Shingg-!Thudd! the sword bounced back. It was not long before Uriel realized that something on her mission had gone completely wrong. 

“There is no use” When that voice slowly breaks the silence. As Uriel turned toward the voice thinking he had misheard, Uriel noticed. The girl who was asleep was now awake and staring at her. 

“You're the one who needs luck” the girl's eyes sparkle ruthlessly in the dark.

Uriel's body jerks. He tried to retreat towards the window but his body seemed to be held back by the wall.

“There's restraint. I don't know who you are but your sword can't penetrate it”

The girl sat down. Uriel could see his golden hair and blue eyes. But when he looked closer his eyes turned golden.

Is he a member of the royal family? not likely..

The girl continued to look at Uriel as if peering into Uriel's soul. The girl's gaze overwhelmed him. Yet there was no look of regret on Uriel's face. 

The girl's brows furrowed worriedly, and her lips that rose slightly looked loving. Like his eyes a moment ago.

The girl waited for Uriel to surrender.

The girl acted as if she had control over Uriel. Usually Uriel never lost her composure while carrying out missions. But his mind was currently filled with rage. All Uriel saw was red. 

Uriel wants to destroy the girl's arrogance. Uriel hated this feeling let alone this feeling she got from the little girl without a weapon. Uriel wanted to remove the look of sympathy from the girl's face.

The sword will always follow the wishes of its master, no matter what

The words of Safiro, the person he hated the most suddenly appeared in his mind. If those words were true then, any restraint would not stand in his way.uriel did not believe the girl's words that the restraint was indestructible.

He has to finish this.

Uriel tightened her grip on her silver sword. His hands are ready. He raised his sword and pointed it at the girl for the third time.
