Chapter 2 - THE BLACK CROWN-2-

"Something is wrong in the castle!" After Han shared his concerns all of them looked at him seriously while the prince stands and call the guards to prepare the royal carriage,

As they made their way towards the carriages, Aria stood with determination, helping han to follow the other. The prince had a subtle change in his eyes, a slight crimson hue that was hard to miss. The group's gazes fell upon him, noticing the unusual glow. The prince trusted Han's ability to foresee the future, even if he could only for few seconds but still helpful.

All guards bowed for the prince as the open the carriage door for him. Han looked at the prince while he get in the carriage.

his voice rose with a tint of worry as he asserted, "Shouldn't one of us go with the prince? We can't let him go alone!" The others were preparing to enter the second carriage, but Han remained unmoving, his concern for the prince's safety plain on his face.

"Don't worry about his highness han!" Eric says as he sits in carriage "but-" han couldn't complete his sentence as John's sharp voice cut through the air as he spoke, a harsh chill in his words.

"Can't you just get in the carriage already? The prince isn't weak like you!" The others stared at him, dumbfounded at his insolent behaviour as Han clenched his fists and just get in the carriage silently

Eric and Aria observed in silence as time passed, noticing that the colour of Han's eyes hadn't returned to normal. Instead, the once faint yellow had become even brighter, casting an intense glow across his face. Yet, they remained silent, puzzled by his deep concern for the prince. After all, Charles was the strongest demon in the kingdom and the future king. Why was Han so worried?

"Eric and aria can both of you please use your magic to create protective seals on the carriages?" Han says to them as they both exchanged a glance, sensing the urgency in his tone. They nodded and got to work, their eyes glowing with bloody red colour as they formed a magical aura around each carriage

As their caravan of carriages rolled into the city near the royal castle, a sudden wave of magic and flying projectiles assaulted them. The Prince's carriage was hit especially hard, but the powerful shields held firm, deflecting most of the attack.

Looking out through the window, John observed the frenzy of anger outside. The inhabitants were shouting, unleashing magic, and their eyes had turned a deep, ominous shade of red showing how angry they were

Aria's eyes widened in disbelief as she spoke, her voice filled with shock. "What's happening? They're so angry!!" The usually calm Aria had never witnessed such intense fury before.

As they reached the castle all of them saw the guards trying to protect the prince while the prince walk calmly towards the castle the rest followed the prince but all of sudden a powerful spell shot straight for Han, catching him off guard. Thankfully, John reacted quickly, yanking Han out of the way just in time before the spell exploded with a loud bang, leaving everyone in shock

John looked so angry as his eyes was shining with red colour. John's face darkened with fury as he grasped Han's body firmly and hoisted him over his shoulder. Without warning, he tapped into his unique magical power and catapulted them both forward with high speed to the castle

As they entered the castle John threw han of his shoulder as his voice was sharp and cold as he spoke, laced with disbelief. "Tsk, I can't believe you're so idiotically careless that you almost got hit by such weak magic," he rebuked, his words punctuated by a disapproving scoff

Han looked at his torn sleeve of his shirt, a grimace crossing his face. "Thanks, John," he murmured, his voice low. John, however, dismissed his thanks, striding away to rejoin the twins. A jolt of surprise shot through Han as the prince's hand abruptly landed on his shoulder, accompanied by a concerned question. "Are you alright?" the Prince inquired, his voice laden with worry.

Han couldn't hold a weak smile that formed on his lips "yeah thanks to john!" As he says that the prince ordered his servants to prepare a new clothes for han. "I'm going to see why all people angry john and eric follow me" as the prince says that john and eric replied with "as you wish your highness" and followed him.

As han and aria followed the servant. the prince arrived at the medical pavilion within the castle, his eyes widening in shock at the scene that greeted him.

About 3000 persons were laying lifeless on beds with their Life core had been taken

"What happened here?"...
