Even though they have combined with other Kingdoms, it is still not comparable to the strength of the Sadrach Kingdom.
Shem beat one of the Kings, their leader with his sword, as well as King Theophylus, His father also faced other Kings. They fought fiercely and nimbly, each eager to spill the blood of their opponent first. They must choose which of the two of them will die, and who will live? Of course Sadrach hopes to win and be able to cripple these rebellious colonies again. Punish the leaders and masterminds of this rebellion and still rule them fairly if the people and soldiers have submitted after their leaders lost. This battlefield was very dark, covered with anger and resentment as well as hurt from both sides.

Masyayel this morning as usual practiced the sword with Abraham, with new techniques and further lessons that had not been taught. Now is the fifth day where Prince Shem has not returned to the palace, to be honest the girl harbored a longing for her prince, but she does not have access to get news from him there. Even Abraham did not know anything about it, after finishing practicing the sword as usual he would immediately help Uncle Elliot to prepare herbal concoctions that were made manually by Uncle Elliot every day.
"Masyayel, there are leaves that are gone, I want to go out of the palace first to look for them? Meanwhile, this vessel must always be stirred until it is ripe," he said.
"Where is Uncle? Is it at the Palace Herbal Garden located three hundred meters from here?"
"Yes, how do you know? I haven't asked you,"
"Prince Shem has told me all the important places of this palace, please allow me to go there, Uncle. I want some fresh air while taking a walk,"
"The Prince's message, you may not leave the palace alone, I'll just go,"
"I used to go out of the palace practicing swords with Abraham, I only took plants not far from the palace, Uncle, don't worry,"
"If you practice the sword in the company of Abraham, it's you yourself. It's dangerous Masyayel,"
"Come on Uncle. I can already play the sword, I will bring a sword just in case, which plants should I look for? I want to bring an example."
Because by all means Uncle Elliot had forbidden it and it did not work, then Masyayel's seduction to go help him was also granted by Uncle Elliot, although with a heavy heart.
She handed over the types of plants that had a little remaining one or two sheets which he handed over to Masyayel. Masyayel was glad she was finally trusted to go to the palace's herbal garden. She immediately ran and went out to the exit of the palace.
She pocketed several sample sheets of the plant. Then she walked along the streets outside the palace, also taking a leisurely stroll like this. It is not lonely either, in the streets there are many people passing by. "Why is Uncle Elliot so scared and so worried about me? Nothing will happen to me." She muttered to herself, while stroking the hilt of the sword that she had tucked tied next to her clothes. Besides, it was not far too according to Masyayel. Only about three hundred meters from here. She smiled and greeted the residents. who passed with their respective busyness. She was very happy they all replied in a friendly manner. Masyayel was touched and remembered the friendliness of her previous people. When Serafin was still standing tall and he was still a princess.
"Ah ... I have to extinguish all my daydreams. Abraham has said that the past must be buried deep, and I must step forward for my future happiness. I feel a little bit more arriving at my destination." Her steps were accompanied by a smile.
Masyayel was so confident in the safety of the environment here, and she was too happy to be able to breathe free air without being spies like Abraham. Make her escape someone's evil intentions. There were two stalkers who had unwittingly been following her from a few meters away, secretly hiding in the thickets Masyayel passed. She continued walking without the slightest fear. She doesn't know what their intention was to follow the girl. Even though Masyayel doesn't even know him, nor does she have any business with anyone so far. Since Masyayel is a palace secret, not even the core members of the Kingdom are aware of the girl's whereabouts. Only the Prince, Abraham, and Uncle Elliot, the herbal drink concoction of the Palace, knew about Masyayel's whereabouts. So who is the stalker?
Even she walked wearing a hooded and covered clothes, so her face could not be seen.
"Aaaarghhh ...." Suddenly Masyayel was embraced by two young men. She was pulled and taken to a room without enough light.
"RELEASE ME !!! Who are you?" shouted Masyayel in shock.
"Waah, I thought you were Gabriela - the palace cook? You're not her, huh?"
"No! I am Masyayel, I am a special servant of palace herbs, I specially serve the Prince too," she replied in fear because she was caught by two men.
"Eh, she's very pretty too for the servant size? Humm ... I think we'll forget about Gabriela's promise, we'll just mess with this one. Hehehe,"
"Yes, huh? You are very beautiful. Like not just a servant. I like this one. You are equally worthless servants! Wow,"
"What do you mean? !!! I am a precious servant !!! I am Prince Shem's special servant! If you dare to mess around, Prince Shem will kill you!"
"Humm ... Don't be silly. Lowly servant! In the past, Gabriela and her friends were also hypocrites, cursing and getting angry with us, but after knowing what it was like to play with us, now twice every week, we make a meeting, those who are looking us, they should be here "
"Yes! They are addicted! You holy pretentious servant women! It's our turn to play with us. So addictive. You must be the same as them too dear! Hahaha," he said.
