"My queen I swear on the throne that I 'Capheus' will protect the royal prince with my life".
"Good, now escape from here. Don't ever come back here" The queen said it seemed as if she wanted to say more but the speed of Capheus was too fast as he had already disappeared from sight.
It was at this time that the queen heard lots and lots of footsteps rushing towards her. She knew this was it.
The demons that mougan had ordered to retrieve the baby, came but they couldn't find any baby and they saw the queen, and ruthlessly killed her. They began to search the whole area.
"My husband, I'll be able to see you soon," She said as tears mixed with blood soon fell from her beautiful white eyes.
Capheus was running as fast as he could. He didn't look back even once, he ran and ran until he was exhausted.
He had to rest. He started to look for a village. It was starting to get dark and he didn't feel safe with the baby in the dark so he increased his speed of searching.
Soon a village came to his sight from far away. It looked desolate and it has quite a few houses. The village was covered by fences that were made of bamboo. There seemed to be no one around but there was fire still burning outside the village, as well as on the entrance which indicated that people lived there.
Capheus decided to approach the village as he had no other option.
Capheus decided to put up a barrier around the village which meant that as long as no one stronger than him came no one would be able to see or sense the village. This was done in order to prevent anyone from finding them and also Capheus was a good man in heart because he did not want to drag the lives of the villagers into this, that was also another reason why he put out up a barrier around the village.
This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
Capheus needed a place to hide but from the looks of it, all the villages seemed to have people living inside them. Capheus didn't know what to do. Now it was at this time that Capheus sensed something.
Capheus looked at the place where he was able to sense something and soon he saw a figure staring at him.
"Who are you? Why are you here ?" The figure asked him in a deep and demanding voice.
"My name is-" Capheus had decided that he would make a fake identity as he did not want to reveal his true self because of the situation in the kingdom but before he could even begin his life the figure spoke up.
"Aren't you Capheus the Great General of the Royal Army? What are you doing here ?" As soon as he asked that and seeing the condition that Capheus was in he knew what had happened.
"The kingdom has fallen hasn't it ?" Asked the figure once again to capheus.
Capheus was surprised he didn't think that anyone here would recognize him as this was a very secluded place and by his senses, the person in front of him seemed to know a lot of things and he seemed to be strong.
"Yes, the kingdom had indeed fallen," Said Capheus pain mixed with his voice."
"That boy could it be ?" The person asked in a very surprised voice.
"Yes, he is the royal prince and the last remaining heir to the southern royal family".
Said capheus he could have lied about the baby's origin but the person in front of him seemed to be someone he could trust and that is what he needed right now so he decided to be honest with the man in front of him.
"I need your help please I'm being chased by the enemy I need a place to hide please this was the last order the queen gave me I have to complete it". Capheus decided to come clean about the fact that they were being chased as he thought that this person would be able to help them.
"I am still under and will always be under the southern crown.
My name is Asahi Reo. Come you can rest at ease I will also put up a barrier with our two barriers combined no one will find us".
These words were Luke melody to capheus's ears he had been fighting and running for so long he was tired and on the verge of collapse but now he could finally be at ease.
And like that with the help of the person who capheus learned was the village leader capheus and the royal prince was able to live in the secluded village.
