Chapter 5 - Encounter and Coronation pt.2

Before the coronation was starting, Yun was caught by the guards. She tries to get out of the grip but fails. She looks at her neck to see no necklace which she thought that it might had been lost. She knew that she can't stay that long without her necklace.

"Prince! We caught her!" The Prince she saw at the fight before looks at her smirking at her in a sinister way that she was disgusted a lot.

"Why are you doing this?" The Prince looks at her and laughs. He touches her face and replies, "Don't you know why? It is because two of you humiliated me in front of everyone. This is my revenge for you two!"

Yun furiously looks at him trying her best to get out of the grip of the guard.

"That's too much for the revenge!"

"Stop with this chitchat. I am Young-chul by the way. What's yours?" She grits her teeth for asking too nicely when she was here going to be punished so soon.

"I am not going to tell you okay! Why are you being too nice when you were just a minute ago so evil?!" She yells at the Prince not even differentiating their rank.

"Take her to a room and lock it! This is for her not knowing who she is talking to!"

The guards take her to the room and locks it. Yun lays on the bed and cries. She feels sorry for Yong to be left alone in the place full of unknown people. She only had short time to live in the world.

"I'm sorry Yong for living you alone."

"Greetings my brothers!" Daeshim comes running outside the garden. the coronation was going to be started in a minute. The brothers stays there talking when their brother Young-chul comes to them.

"So, our brothers are all here!" Hyun-ki smiles at him to lift the bad aura around the brothers. They were all under control of the Devil King which they don't appear to be friendly. But without being in under control they were lively.

The official announces them that the coronation was starting so, they goes to the ball room.

They watch the Devil King walking in front of them and thanking the people for coming. After that the Prince were crowned one by one by their father.

Hyun-ki spots a girl in a long black hair with an old man and a dog. He watches her carefully not trying to be seen by his brothers. He feels suspicious about the girl from the looks.

After the end of the coronation Young-chul speaks to his brother, "I have something to tell you. I told you guys like yesterday that I was being pushed by a girl, right?" All the Princes nods their head. "So, I have caught one of her friend. I don't know what to do with her but I locked her in a room." The Princes makes an 'o' face which Young-chul just smiles.

"What about I have se--" Chin-hae covers Daeshim's mouth before he could speak any words in front of Hyun-ki.

"Chin-hae! I am a man now, remember?" Hyun-ki reminds his brother who was being protective for his younger brother.

"Haha... Yeah, but still I don't want you to!" The two boys runs Hyun-ki chasing Chin-hae. The other brothers walks slowly when Korain speaks to Young-chul, "What if she dies in that room? She probably might be hungry?" Young-chul nods his head. "Yeah... I guess so."

All goes to their own room while Young-chul walks towards their kitchen to bring some food. He walks towards where their girl was locked when he unlocks the door to find her thinner than before. He tries to wake her up but finds her not moving an inch.

His face suddenly becomes white as a ghost to find out that she was dead. He orders the guards to throw her into the river.

"Now she is dead." Young-chul walks towards his room to sleep.

Yong-Byeol wakes up when the light hits her eyes. She stretches her arms and looks for U-jin beside her only to see a man with brown hair. She stands up fast and stays in a fighting pose.

"Hey! Who are you?" The man opens his eyes slowly to see her. "I am U-jin. W... Wait a minute! H... How come I... can talk!" He looks at his hands and everywhere to see that he was transformed into human.

Yong-Byeol with her mouth opened looks at him suspiciously. "Are you really the dog?" She asked him only to see him nodding.

"Wow!! How in the world just happened?" Two of them thinks for a while only to live this subject.

"I think we can stop thinking about that and get back to the village. And two of us should find a shelter still."

"Oh! What if we ask the old man we met yesterday?" Yong-Byeol agrees his plan and walks back to the village.

Yong-Byeol suddenly hears Yun voice in her head. She thinks that it was just because she missed her but she really hears the next voice saying that she was not dreaming.

"Hello Yong-Byeol! How are you?" The voice inside her head speaks. "W... Who are you?" She speaks inside her mind which she hears somebody calling her.

"Yong-Byeol! what happened? You were not responding me?" Yong-Byeol just smiles at him and tells that she was thinking about her friend which he nods.

"Oh! There is the old man we saw yesterday! Let's go!" Two of them walks towards the old man to find him working in a bar. the old man noticing a figure in front of him smiles at them.

"Hello, my child! I see we have met again!" Yong-Byeol smiles at him when she greets him. The old man notices the man beside her which he looks at her. "Oh... he is U-jin. We met when I was coming in this village." She lies to him for she didn't wanted to freak out somebody telling that he was a dog or something.

The old man ask her why she came and tells him that she doesn't have a house to stay which the old man kindly tells her to stay here.

"For your work in here two of us will help!" Old man being happy thanks her and U-jin for helping him.

"So, grandfather I wanted to ask you a question."

"Go on dear!" She breathes for a while when she asks, "Do you know any way for me to sneak into the palace?" The old man any hates his head. "No, my dear. The palace is full of soldiers guarding each palace ways nowadays. So no one can ever sneak into the palace."

Yong sighs thinking that she might never get time free her friend and mother.

"Hey! You don't have to come to save me!" The voice inside her head speaks again. She grows confuse to why the voice inside her told her not to come save her like as if she was Yun.

"Who are you really?" She asked the voice inside her head being really curious to why the voice was inside her head. "I can't tell you who I am yet Yong." Hearing that respond made her even confuse to why it feels a bit familiar when calling her name.

After working for a day, she throws herself on the bed to rest. She still misses her family a lot but she should be strong to live. Yong speaks to the voice again, "So what are you doing voice?"

"I was just there silently and call me Yu." When hearing the voice name she grows suspicious about the voice in her head.

"Okay Yu but, why does it seems so familiar that your name resembles a bit like my friends name?" The voice stays silent for awhile and speaks. "There would be same name...right? You will know when the time comes."

Yong sighs, when she gets into a deep sleep.

"Please save my child---- and don't come back here. Live your life peacefully." Yong sees a woman, her eyes wet with the tears and a white diamond gem crown on her head with a white floral dress touching the ground. Yong assumes it was Queen. She also looks at the guard which she thinks she saw him somewhere.

"Okay your Majesty!" The guard runs with the infant baby in his hand. Yong looks at the Queen and the King. She sees them sobbing probably about their baby she thinks.

Suddenly, she hears a loud laughing sound from the door only to see the Devil King but he was and much younger than she thought. Her eyes widens when she sees a sword full of blood in the Devil's King hand.

"WHY DID YOU BETRAY ME, WON-SHIK!" She hears the King yelling at the Devil King or Won-shik cause he was not King yet she thoughts.

"Haha!!!! You didn't knew that I wanted to become a King! I was just acting as your friend so that I could be one day be in a place where everyone will obey me but... your wife was pregnant which I couldn't be in a place like yours. Your daughter will be the next rural I thought of killing your baby inside your wife's womb before she could give birth but she was lucky everytime, everyday." The Queen and King becomes horrified by the way Won-shik looked at them.

"Now, let's finish what I had planned." Won-shik runs towards the them with the blood full sword to kill them which the King was stabbed right to his stomach.

"Y... you won't leave so l... long... Won-shik. My d... daughter will come back... to kill you... after 18 years." Won-shik laughs at the King who was having pain in his stomach.

"You think your daughter will come to avenge the throne!!! Haha!! I don't think so! I am not scared at all!!" Won-shik takes out the sword from the King's stomach which he fells down on the ground while Won-shik kills the Queen too. The King regretting for trusting him and sewing his wife being killed fells a tear from his eye before he dies.

Yong-Byeol wakes up from seeing the dream. She feels a bit connected to the past King and Queen which she goes to the old man to ask who he really was.
