Chereads / The Power of Evil / Chapter 13 - 13. Hidden

Chapter 13 - 13. Hidden

Prince Ken is still in Horathomi's Palace room. He was not allowed to go home because the king was worried about him. Bored and irritated if it takes longer in the room, he can feel it. Especially when she would just eat and sleep there.

"Prince Ken, someone has come," said a servant after opening the door. Behind him was Jerry, who looked down and smiled.

Prince Ken smiled kindly at Jerry. It's nice to see his opponent at the golden sword competition. Plus, Jerry was the only one who could take him down. Instead of being afraid, he became more and more interested in Jerry.

Jerry was a little nervous walking up to Prince Ken. Anyway, she had made prince Ken have to sit in the room for a few days. That's why she wanted to see Prince Ken.

"Is prince Ken feeling any better?" Jerry asked.

"As you can see. I'm fine," prince Ken said casually.

"I didn't expect to make Prince Ken this way," Jerry lamented.

"Calm down! I'm fine. I'm fine. I heard from all the gay guards who came to see me that I was dead, right? But it's because it's a miracle that brings me back to life."

After that, prince Ken briefly explained the power of evil. He didn't want to confuse Jerry anymore. He knew that Jerry was just a small-town boy who wasn't familiar with the power of the spirit.

Jerry fell silent with his mouth open. It never occurred to him about the power of the spirit. However, now he even possesses it at a higher level than reasonable. Now, he was in awe of himself.

"Today, practice again. Look at the extent of your spiritual power. After that, you need to be able to control it.

Jerry nodded despite his confusion. Then, he saluted prince Ken and got out of the room. He went straight for the training.

***

Jerry was sitting under the tree where he was rehearsing. He placed his sword on the thigh. Looked at his sparkle and stroked it gently. A sword is most precious to him.

The sword had accompanied him to practice for the sword of gold. Even now, he still doesn't expect to use it to kill his opponents in the competition. It's practically what makes him a criminal.

After finishing the wave, Jerry stood up and walked toward the wooden doll he had been using for practice. He placed his sword on the ground, then threw a punch at the wooden dummy. Put all his strength into it just to get the spirit that he wants to control.

From a distance, Ichiro and jirou noticed Jerry. They were both sitting under the tree where Jerry had been resting. Accidentally, I saw the sword lying there.

"Isn't this Jerry's sword?" asked jirou.

"Yes. He has been putting down his sword since the gold sword competition ended," ichiro replied, remembering jerry's new habit.

Jerry was getting tired. He adjusted his breathing and accidentally saw ichiro and jirou holding his sword. Then he ran toward them and grabbed his sword roughly.

"What's wrong with you?" asked jirou indignantly.

"Don't touch my sword at random!" no jerry.

"So what?"

"Jirou, Jerry, anough!" ichiro asserts.

Jerry was almost just mad at jirou. He doesn't like someone to hold his beloved object. What's more, it is something that can boomerang back on him.

Jirou went straight with resentment, leaving ichiro with jerry. Ichiro immediately apologized to Jerry, then quickly caught up with him. Afterward, Jerry could barely breathe under a tree.

Jerry shut his eyes. Taking a rest from everything he's tired of. Practicing hard and that's the first time he had a fight with jirou. After thinking about it, he felt bad about jirou.

Amid the wind lapping around the tree where he leaned, suddenly there was something ridiculous he felt in his ears. Then Jerry opened his eyes to check it out. As it turned out, Princess Alice was tickling hir ears with thatched grass.

The woman smiled amused as Jerry looked at her with astonishment. "Can you don't close your eyes?" he asked Jerry to raise his eyebrows.

"Why?" Jerry asked hesitantly.

Princess Alice grabs Jerry's cheek. "Because your eyes are transparent and very charming. I want to see that ... constantly till I get bored."

Jerry took princess Alice's hand off her cheek. "Princess Alice, I can't. How could I betray prince Ken?" politely refused Jerry. He felt that princess Alice was teasing him.

Princess Alice has been intentionally approaching Jerry ever since her identity as a princess has been compromised. He felt Jerry was increasingly distancing himself from him. It was the only way he could get close to Jerry.

Princess Alice took out a folded paper from the bag. Then he pulled out Jerry's palm and placed the paper on it. "Jerry, I've already confided in you. You can read it more clearly in this letter I wrote. You still have until tomorrow afternoon to return the favor."

Jerry nodded in the stillness. Afterward, princess Alice moved away. In her current solitude, she used to read the letter that princess Alice had given her. He would write a reply right after reading it.

***

Jerry stuffed the counterletter into his pocket. He'll give it to princess Alice later. At present, the weekly practice schedule is held at the palace.

As usual, they stood first to listen to instructions. But jerrry was not focused on paying attention. He turned to and fro, hoping that his wits would just disappear. Before long, he saw princess Alice scurrying out of the palace. He immediately thought that princess Alice was running away.

Jerry immediately went out of line to pursue princess Alice. Even the shouts from his coach were ignored. He kept running for the whereabouts of princess Alice who had just disappeared from his sight.

"He runs fast! Where was he going so fast?" he mumbled with breathless breath.

Suddenly, Jerry was pulled by someone from behind the wall next to him. On the quiet side of the wall, he saw Princess Alice beckoning him to stand still and then heard some footsteps looking for him.

When the atmosphere cleared, Princess Alice pushed Jerry's shoulders against the wall until the man's back. "Have you lost your mind?" her wrath.

"What? Why am I being chased? You're the one who got away, right?" Jerry wondered.

Princess Alice huffed. She thinks that Jerry may not be clear on the situation. Apparently, it's her job to explain to Jerry.

"You can't leave on a training schedule. Plus, you were already in a line. You're gonna get punished, jerry."

Jerry doesn't know about the rules. He spontaneously followed princess Alice as soon as he saw her. "I'm worried about you, princess Alice."
