Chapter 12 - ENOUGH TO USE WISELY

IN THE KINGDOM OF ZYON

at the high-end tower which is also a well-known messenger tower Zyon kingdom, Grand Chamberlin Jin was patiently waiting for the 6 messenger birds from the spies of the Dragao kingdom and the spy from the knights he sent along with Estelle, when he saw one of the messenger birds arriving, he stood up and went to retrieve the paper attached to its leg,

at the same time, the rest of the birds arrived but the information he got was different in each of them, flustered he went to the king's chamber with the messages when he saw the king and the prophet were discussing something he hurriedly closed the door and went towards them,

placing the small rolled papers on the table he started speaking "these are the messages from the Dragao kingdom"

The prophet raised his eyebrow at the flustered Grand Chamberlin and read them one by one

'The princess showed a great deal in front of the king'

'The princess is targeted by the present king'

'The princess is not doing well and went into a coma again'

'The present king was almost dethroned'

'The beast kingdom and rebels combined were planning for an attack on the king'

'The forces in Dragao kingdom were shaken badly'

The king and the prophet became silent, now the most crucial thing was the princess Estelle who was supposed to be dead is alive and the present king is a powerless puppet to his parents,

The king flustered raised his concern "how come that kid is alive shouldn't she be dead by now"

Grand Chamberlin Jin nodded his head "her familiar was dead for sure I confirmed it personally"

The prophet then waved his hand and said "the possibility of her being alive is one in million and also only possible if her familiar has an ancient bloodline, apparently it does and for that kid to be alive means her familiar gave up the life force to that kid"

king and grand chamber Jin were shocked beyond words at the luck of Estelle, king spoke "one of the messages said she went into a coma again that means"

prophet nodded his head "she can't be alive while withstanding the power of life force her weak body can't control that strength she will die in no time, in any way her being lucky has opened us some opportunities"

Grand Chamberlin nodded his head and said "what do we do with the rest of the messages if the present king is powerless then our plan is bound to backfire"

King waved his hand at the grand Chamberlin "that's nothing to worry the information of rebels and the former queen's followers were quite sufficient for us to make a move unnoticed, we can make use of them anyway the present king is a power-hungry youngster like his mother unlike his father which makes our work quite easy"

Prophet nodded his head agreeing with the king he instructed the Grand Chamberlin jin on the reply messages and then took his leave as they were making a follow-up plan,

the prophet came out of the king's chamber, he walked as fast as he could to his room which is eerie and silent with no light he collapsed on the floor in pain, he walked to his bed with much difficulty, laying on his bead he cursed loudly "damn this dimwit's body was supposed to withstand my power yet I am suffering from a backlash ahhhhh!!!!!"

Unknown to him a low whimper was heard when he was cursing to which the prophet didn't pay attention, after the prophet fell asleep with much difficulty, the door opened and was closed swiftly without a sound.

The 6th princess Ria Zyon was taking a stroll in the garden alone with a blank expression, if it was before there would be a bunch of people following her behind, just for her needs, while walking she stopped at a certain spot which used to be her mother's favorite, she sat there looking dazed afar,

her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a maid who came to her running, she shook Princess Ria from her dazed state, panting, princess Ria frowned her eyebrows in confusion and waited for the maid to calm down,

"Possess....possessed princess...possessed...pro-" a knife was stabbed right in her throat, Princess Ria froze on the spot when she saw the maid fall to the ground was groaning catching her neck while the blood was flowing from her neck wetting the floor, neatly polished shoes came into her view, she lifted her head with fear and nervousness.

Grand Chamberlin Jin's expression was serious as he deepened the knife on the maid's neck with his foot, Princess Ria started shivering her complexion became pale and her legs gave up, just as she was about to fall, Grand Chamberlin moved to catch her, he then made her sit on the nearby chair and asked in a concerned voice "my princess don't bother with this lowly maid calling you possessed, as long as I am there, I won't allow anyone to insult you" saying he gently rubbed her head

his words sounded scarier than assuring Princess Ria, tears started flowing from her eyes and dampened her pale face, Grand Chamberlin Jin became restless and hugged her while comforting her when he noticed her shivering increased, he assumed she was shocked by seeing something like this up close, he saw the maids who came to them after listening to the commotion and then instructed them to take Princess Ria to her room and to call for the royal physician.

Princess Ria after coming to her room, she hurriedly laid on the bed and took the sleeping pills which were prescribed earlier and closed her eyes surprising the maids, when the king heard what happened from the grand Chamberlin, he issued a punishment for all the servants, to keep them in check, which highlighted the Princess position in the castle.
