At first glance, Lihan harbor suspicion that the man was plotting something. And he tried to track him.
While the man was hustling.
Like a flash of light someone appeared and stabbed the man with a sword. As the man felt down dead.
Lihan looked at the person and he sounds in excitement, "Prince pial!". Then he moved forward and embraced him. "How excited I feel to see you prince pial" he uttered, still held with each other.
And prince pial smiled before he loosened from the hug. Then he faced him and spoke, "Are you alright my friend? Nothing bad happen to you or mother or anyone here?"
"Nothing my Lord, everyone is fine and safe here. Where's the princess, commando pliph, sir samar and others?" He asked, looking behind prince pial.
Prince pial smiled before he responds, "see for yourself". And he showed him to where princess Nar, Ixan, commando pliph, Samar with the rest of the villagers were standing, looking at them.
Lihan laughed in excitement.
"Come on friend. Let's say hi, it's been a long time", said prince pial. And he dragged him to them.
Then they continue to discuss.
The noises of the people calls Drisat's mind as she quickly went out to have a look. To her surprised, she saw princess Nar with prince pial, chatting. Drisat couldn't believe what she saw and she quickly walked to them. "Welcome back princess! Welcome everyone!" She said out gladly before she turned to princess Nar and kindly bow to her, says "my lady!".
And princess Nar smiled while looking at her, "are you fine Drisat? I am so glad to see you again. Come, let's hug. Come on", and she embraced her.
"Thanks my lady".
"Wow! What a blessing surprise? Where are you heading?" Asked lihan.
And prince pial looked at him before he sounds, "where do you want us to go? To the queen, idiot. Oh I see! The queen is resting now, we shouldn't meet her like this. Come on everyone, let's visit my dear friend, Lihan Fas". The he turned to Lihan with smile on his face, "let's go to your house".
"Highly welcome", answered lihan pleasantly.
And they walked inside.
Swed was frisking around the room as he heard a knocking sounds of his door. And he turned in wrath, "what's this habit Joe? You will never be sensible in your life?"
"Forgive me Sir. There's a problem".
"And what's that problem? I understand that your full life was retained with problems. I don't even know how you get involved in my life activities", sounded Swed while looking at him.
And Joe sounds, "it's the battalions you have sent for the mission. They were destroyed. Prince pial has vanished them all".
"And that means what?" Asked Swed again as he walked to him, trying to smash him.
And Joe bent down his head, feeling scared to speak up.
"That means I failed. Me, Swed. How's that possible? I have arranged everything in order. What about the outlet villages?" Asked Swed.
And Joe utter, "they were all under control. Our battalions cannot pass through the era".
Swed kept silence, thinking in embroiled.
And Joe added, "it's confusing. But I have heard that prince pial is not alone. He got supporters".
"What?"
"Yes Sir, it's not that I heard it, but I have also seen it myself. There's a strong and gracious lady who came from the village of Heoro. That lady has killed many of our men. And she's the warrior of them all apart from prince pial and commando pliph".
"What did ... She killed them all?"
"Surely Sir. I have seen her in action. She should be somebody I guess".
"Or someone who has just appeared to be my doomed. And I will not let that happen because I am not a slack. That soul that will break my wisdom was yet to be born", he added in gruffed.
"It's above your knowledge. For whatever you think, this girl is born of an earth's gym. Forgive me for my words but, you need to be very careful with your rail of missions".
Swed walked to the table and took a sharp knife from the tray. As he was spinning it with his hand, he approaches to where Joe was standing, looking at him.
Joe's body continue trembling while looking at Swed approaching him. He was fearing what Swed will do.
As Swed came to him, he bent with the knife in his hand. Then he dropped it down on the ground as Joe yelled in scary. "You see my intentions and gradually, you'll see my actions. I don't care who is it or what it is. But if anyone tried to cross my path should face my anger. And I am not good. I can endure any pain to succeed and I will never accept failure. For the first time a lady has crossed my bridge. And she will face consequences with no facile", said Swed furiously.
While Lihan has prepared many foods for the people with Ixan, princess Nar and Drisat assisting him. And after the food is ready, they shared it to everyone. Until everyone got the food before they settle together in one place. And they begin to eat while having a chat.
"That's a wonderful break. Drisat! Please pass me the vegetables", sounded princess Nar in thrilled.
As princess Nar, Ixan and Fanat were trying to get on the food.
"It's so great, really", said Lihan.
As princess Nar uttered, "oh no, I forget to tell you about my new friend Lihan". And she looked at Ixan as she added, "Meet my new friend ...".
"Ixan!", Sounded Lihan as he swiftly held his tongue, looking at prince pial.
And prince pial utter, "do not worry, we have passed that level since many years ago".
"Really?" Asked lihan, looking at princess Nar.
"So ... You also hide it from me hah! That's very good. Have you seen them Ixan?" sounded princess Nar.
And Ixan smiled.
"Forgive us my lady. Surely we have made a mistake but that wasn't intentional. We worried about how you feel not what we like, so we decide to leave it as a secret. But I hope it's only you who knew about this?"
"Even uncle Samar knew. I do not resembled you, in keeping secrets from my people", answered princess Nar anxiously.
As lihan utter, "what?"
"Don't worry gentleman. Samar is my uncle and if there's anything that worries me, he should know first. But apart from him, no one knows anything", sounded princess Nar.
And Lihan took a breath in relief. Then he turned to Ixan and Fanat before he spoke, "my lady! Sister in law! I hope the food is delicious to you?"
"Yes it's Sir", answered Fanat.
As Ixan quietly smiled and continue eating. So also prince pial continue eating his food silently.
AN HOUR LATER,
Everyone settled to sleep. Although they were not prepared but they have gotten a pillow and a blanket.
Ixan arranged the sleeping spot for Ding. Then she gave him the blanket, "take it father. I hope the place suits you. It's not really like ... Home but ... It's very safe here".
Ding smiled and collect the blanket. "It's okay here my dear. We have gotten all that we deserves as honourable guests. I am so happy to be here with my daughter sound and safe".
Ixan bent down her head and utter, "it's not how we wish father".
"What can we do my child? It's our destiny. We should be thankful for these people. They have tried their best to see that we're saved".
"I know father. My worried is somewhere else because ... I just feel something is going to happen".
And Ding looked at her with concerned. "What is it child?"
"I don't know. But if I was right, something bad is going to happen. I don't know when and how. Although I don't know from where the strike will break. But I just don't feel comfortable here. We have to leave as soon as possible father, since everything is in control now. Please father, let us leave here", sounded Ixan in worried.
As Ding continue looking at her, thinking of what to say.
