Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: The Crown Prince

[A FEW MONTHS AGO]

The problems that occur after my death as Rose Bennett was quite troublesome.

[AT ROYAL PALACE]

Due to the prince Alexander Clifford's foolish action with my brothers, his position to be a crown prince was revoked by the king. The king then gives the position of the crown prince to his sons from another concubine.

Vincent Clifford, the second son of the king's descendants from another concubine was two years younger than the first prince. He was idolized by his servants because of his looks and his friendly attitude towards others around him.

The king then appointed the head court magician, Alfred Dormer, a genius who mastered magic arts at the age of 10 to be the crown prince aide. He has a high amount of mana than the best magician in the kingdom and any normal children at his age. Even though he's like that, He is adored by the women because of his child's face and was envied by men.

[IN THE CAPITAL CITY]

The crown prince was strolling the city in incognito with Alfred to relax from the tension in the Royal Palace.

"Hey did you that the village on the east became a town due to many merchants residing in it?",

"Oh, you mean the town that has the best restaurant and a beautiful lady as the owner?",

"Yeah, that one! I visited it the other day after returning as an escort from a merchant request in the guild. The food is really good there compare the food from the capital best restaurant and I must say, she indeed a beauty",

"Wow, dude! Why didn't you invite me with the request",

The crown prince became interested in the adventurer party story that was passing by the street and wanted to go to visit the town at noon.

Not long after that the incognito carriage then was prepared for the crown prince to visit the town. It is guarded by five of the royal knight from the palace that disguised themselves as adventurers.

[ON THE JOURNEY]

The sky is clear and the breeze is soothing them with fresh air. The scenery around the route is full with a colorful flower that covers half of the field.

The mood then was ruined by a disturbing rumbling and hissing sound coming from the thick dark forest on the other side of the route.

Then appeared a glimpse of the giant snake body between the trees. Alfred was alerted by its presence and went outside to cast a magical barrier around their radius.

It was startled by the magic and started to attack the carriage out of nowhere. A violent thud then can be heard due to the basilisk attack and a visible crack was made.

The barrier is cover by Alfred mana but then the attack from the snake gives a lot of pressure to his body and he tried to endure it in order to protect everyone from the danger that awaits them.

The barrier then shattered apart and cause a devastating effect on Alfred's condition as he coughs out blood from his mouth. The guards then tried to hold the basilisk for the crown prince to escape.

" Isn't that The Legendary Basilisk?!?!",

" Damn it, isn't it suppose to be at the Northside?",

" Faster! His Highness safety comes first, protect the carriage at all cost from the demonic beast",

"Yes sir!",

The carriage continues the journey escorted by two of the guards while the other three fight against an S-rank beast, The Legendary Basilisk that was known to be on a rampage from on the North.

The basilisk then throws a huge tree on the route and the carriage ends up crashing on the tree and the prince life ends up unconscious due to the impact.
