Two Faced Princess
Chapter 17's
The air around Uriel blew louder, but Uriel's confidence in her sword was stronger than anything else. Uriel took a step forward and raised his sword. He felt stronger than ever.
Shiying! The moment the sword struck the restrainer appeared a crack. Uriel pushed her sword into the cracked part. A sense of shock spread throughout his body.
Clangs!
The girl realized that her arrest had been broken. Uriel was thrown on the bed and her sword floated. The tip of the sword fell right in front of the girl's forehead.
The silence seemed suffocating. Their gazes collided with a sword in their midst. The girl's pupils are enlarged. The girl gasps.
“You..”
The girl's voice was shaking. The corner of Uriel's lips rose in satisfaction. The girl was nervous.
Their distance was so close, yet they just stared at each other. Both are not moving. Then-then
Bang out!
The door slammed open and the middle-aged man rushed in.
The swish!Thud!
Uriel's attention was so focused on the girl that she could not react. The dagger of the middle-aged man who had just entered swung and landed teapt on Uriel's left shoulder. Sid came forward and pinned the cloaked man to the floor. Uriel did not dodge at all.
“Sorry I'm late Your Majesty. Please punish me later”
Apollonia was silent.The mind of Apollonia was filled with what had just happened. Just now..
Apollonia still thought that this was not the case, but she saw it with her own eyes. The black-robed man must have severed his restraint. There was no other way seeing his sword could get close to him - even if only for a moment, when their eyes met, Apollonia realized that this Man could kill him.
Even so, the man is currently being held by Sid with a dagger stuck in his shoulder.
“Take me a chair. I'll interrogate him myself.”
Without turning his eyes away, Apollonia waved at Sid. Sid took a chair and placed it in front of Uriel who was kneeling. Apollonia approached the man.
Sid pulled the man's head covering with the tip of his sword. The moonlight struck the man's face. The eyes of Apollonia widen. Sid was shocked.
Kneeling before Apollonia was a boy of Apollonia's age.
His face is very handsome. His silver hair was beautiful as if it was made from strands of moonlight. A pair of sharp eyes and perfectly sculpted jaws were engraved on his face. His slightly lowered eyebrows looked like a painting, though,. Her lips blushed in perfect shape.
This man is like an angel who symbolizes the whole beauty of the world. The blue eyes were filled with agility like a deep ocean.The astute gaze was not directed at Apollonia or Sid but was indeed the bearer.
“I can't believe. This little boy”kaget Sid.”Is he really one of the Safiro Lions?”
“I'm sure. Safiro is the only person who can send assassins this fast to the Royal Palace. I know only a few ‘singa’ left, But I didn't expect one of them to be so talented”
“….Lion Safiro.”
A soft and calm voice resounded in this quiet room. The young man opened his eyes after Apollonia learned of his identity. Curiel's eyes only looked at Apollonia's feet but she remained silent.
“What are you here to kill me?”
Uriel remained silent. Apollonia took that as confirmation. Apollonia laughed bitterly.
“I know my aunt won't dirty her hands with my blood”
Hearing that Uriel's forehead wrinkled. Apollonia saw that and continued
“Do you know who I am?”
As Uriel nodded, Apollonia advised Sid to move the sword around Uriel's neck. Gently Apollonia lifted Uriel's chin.
“See closer”
Both are back in sight. Uriel's eyes gushed softly but she remained silent.
“You must be surprised that the person you have to kill is a young girl. Not only that but also Petra Liefer's niece and Gaiius Liefer”'s daughter
