"Your Highness ,that boy woke up.",said a soldier as he entered the office and bowed down.
"I see,you may leave." ,said Livion ,signalling him with his figures.
Livion was now determined, he thought that standing here or asking him would not bring him any results rather he had to take some actions.
He walked out of his office thinking about a plan ,a lot of things happened today and more importantly now 'His Majesty ' ,the king also knew about Darcel so he couldn't let his guard down.
Moreover, he still had to find those people who can use the dark sphere because rapidly all the people who had 'mana' were losing it.
There was also a secret mission that he had to take care of.
"I have to work fast or else it would be difficult to obtain what I want?" thought he ,as he was on his way to the room.
He felt a slight disposition of aura mending around the room and the corner of the corridor followed by the room.
"This aura is familiar to that water aura ,that means ,Darcel is recovering. " thought Livion, as he stood outside the room.
"Your Highness. "Said the guards, who were standing guard at the door.
Darcel was in some thought so he didn't hear the greetings and arrival of the crown prince.
"It's taking a lot of time ,I have to execute my plan fast." He thought and subconsciously nodded his head.
"I see ,you are lost in thought and care to share." Said Livion ,as he entered and sat in front of him.
Darcel now gained back his senses and looked in front of him ,he found Livion sitting in front of him and a strange sarcastic look was covering
his face.
"I am sorry, your Highness ." Said he, while he tried to rise up from the bed and bow to him.
"No need ,I will go straight to the point." Said Livion as he rose up and moved towards the window.
"Listen ,now you are recovering your power so You have to prove your worth as my assistant ". Said Livion,in a determined voice.
Darcel looked at him in a confused manner as some" heavenly thunder ",fell onto his head or ,maybe "hellish thunder", but now that was not the time to think about the type of thunder that fell .
Livion peeked at his expression and he understood that he was already planning for something.
"I will be straightforward, my assistant means gaining power but also risk and if you want to survive on this palace ,you have to rely on a greater power source like me." Said Livion Livion without restraining anything.
He saw that Darcel was listening with great attention and he knew that he was interested in his offer.
"You can't become my assistant as you wish, you have to prove your worth, that you are eligible and you have to gain others' trust." Said Livion , looking at him ,he was trying to trap him in his plan.
"What do I have to do?"said Darcel.
Livion smirked, he knew that he was taking a risk but he also knew that if he could use Darcel he would gain a lot and he too was helpless because only a number of people were loyal to him.
So,he thought of gambling .
"You would be questioned in the knight council,you have to fight them ,you have to save yourself and also protect me." Said Livion, now in a more serious tone .
Darcel just looked at him ,he knew that if he agreed then he would lay his feet on the trap but he had no way he had to execute his plan and what could help him more than power.
"I am ready , I will prove it." Said Darcel.
Livion smirked and came towards him ,he bent his head down to bring it near Darcel's face.
"You could fool anyone with your pretence but me." Said he, in a sarcastic tone.
"You will first fight with the magical spirit lion ,if you can tame him then you could select your weapon and proceed for your real test." Said Livion ,as he smirked.
Darcel's eyes widened his heart beat became first because he knew that magic lion are the royal beasts and they are evolved from the meteorite magic ,they are very furious and powerful and its possible to get killed facing them.
He clearly knew that Livion had no intention to go easy on him ,but it was reasonable he had to prove his worth wherever he wanted to survive.
"So,are you ready?"said Livion.
Darcel nodded and he smiled a dark laugh, he signalled the guard to prepare the field where the fight would take place.
"Oh!yes you can have some milk and bread before fighting as you healed me,before fighting. " said Livion ,as he ordered the maid to bring the meal.
Darcel already knew that he was mocking him but he needed the energy to fight, win and establish himself and of course return the insult ten fold.
He endured it and ate the food then he rose up from the bed .
Seeing him, Livion asked his guard to take him to the field .The guard bowed and took Darcel away.
"Darcel don't disappoint me ,if you thought that healing me would make me believe you then you were wrong." Said Livion .
He was angry and dark mana surrounded his body again and he almost lost control but then suddenly a calm energy evolved from his crest and it cooled down the mana ,suppressed it.
Livion came to his senses and he saw that he didn't lose his control this time.
"Is it because of his energy?" Said Livion , now he felt a bit bad but this was the only way for him to see his power and for him to see if Darcel was worth the responsibility.
"Crown prince, the field is ready. " said a guard kneeling down.
Livion heard that and proceeded towards the field with mixed emotion ….
