Chapter 23 - THE PRINCE'S BATTLE

Malik, why do you people keep calling me that?

You sure you aren't prince Malik you look identical to the pervious Queen, Queen Hera, she was our grandmother. Francis asked with a look of defeat on his face as he was sure that he was the long lost prince.

No I am Miklaus Lambert son of King Lambert from the Fallen kingdom. I have never met your grandmother in my life all I know is that your grandfather killed my family members and left me wounded in the fallen castle as a child and that's where King Lambert rescued me raising me as his own. I am his loyal servant the Great Knight of the Fallen Kingdom and I have been ordered to kill off King's Nolan descendants. So enough with the chit chat and fight me like the man you are or surrender yourself so I can bring your head to my lord. Miklaus said with a menacing eyes directed towards the two young prince's.

Causing prince Logan to quickly raise his sword as a response. Francis sighing as the men were being immature he raised his sword as well.

Logan first charged at Miklaus giving him one of his strongest swings that most men could not block in time as he would increase his speed when doing that certain attack, but he had managed to block it while throwing his fist at Logan's stomach. Shocking the young prince as it had never happened before. Francis tried striking while he was distracted with Logan which did not succeed as he was a very skillful knight he had managed to take both prince at the same time. The three continued for a while, but eventually Miklaus ended up taking the upper hand as he had struck Logan in the face with his sword. He had barley managed to escape but was not completely safe from the attack. His right eye had been struck causing him to bleed during the fight, yet it did not stop him from continuing to fight. He had gotten it wrapped while Francis continued to fight the man one on one, he was able to keep up which was impressive. Once he was ready to fight again he had charged with all his might knocking down the man. He placed his sword towards the man throat, threatening him during the process as he sat on him. As the old man was a bit bigger he managed to flip the prince so he was now on top, yet as he didn't have a weapon in hand so his attempt was useless in winning the upper hand. But Francis showed up behind him placing his sword on his neck now demanding for him to get off his little brother. He turned quickly knocking the sword out of his hands grabbing Francis placing him in a head lock. Then Logan grabbed a dagger from his boot throwing it at Miklaus causing him to let go of Francis. Miklaus turned with a scary face unbothered by the dagger in his back, he then charged at full speed towards Logan who was now weaponless. In that moment William who was standing protecting the young prince from other attackers, threw his sword at the prince. He caught it stabbing Miklaus in his leg causing him to fall on his knees. He then tied the man up to prepare him for the trip back to castle. Fortunately the rest of the soldiers had managed to defeat the small army with no causality's which had them all filled with joy as they accomplished their mission and brought the masked man down in the process.

As the battle was going down another masked man was sitting up the hill observing the battle in front. Trying not to be noticed, but the sharpest eyes also known as the eagle eyes of Logan crew had seen the man only causing suspicion to rise among the group.
