Chapter 5 - THE BLACK CROWN-5-

Charles spoke up, stating firmly, "I have plans." All eyes fixated on him as he continued, "We should send someone to negotiate with the human king." "I will go your highness" John interjected, expressing his willingness to go, but Charles shot him an intense glare.

"You and Aria are the last two people I would send," he retorted, his voice tinged with irritation. "What?" echoed John and Aria in unison, their shock evident. Both were powerful in their own right, ranking just below the prince, and expected to be chosen for such a task

"I want someone capable of negotiating if i send one of you I won't be shocked to see the human king declare war on us!" Charles says as he glanced over han "you won't go either han you can't control you own power if something happens you could get hurt"

As han heard that he sighed in relief he wasn't ready to go see the human kingdom. He had seen something within his power for few seconds that something dangerous going to happen

if any of them goes to the human kingdom. However, he hesitated to voice his concerns, fearing that his words would be dismissed. Rather than speaking up, he chose to remain silent, letting the discussion continue.

"I volunteer," Eric offered calmly, meeting Charles' gaze. "Absolutely not!" Aria protested, as she refusing to allow her brother to set foot in the human realm. "your highness it dangerous to send eric there!"

John says with icy tone refusing to send eric there too… Charles was unfazed by their protests, as he spoken up, "On the contrary, I don't see why not. He's strong and more sensible than either of you."

"Then eric you are the perfect person for this role" Charles smirked, confident in his choice "i won't let you down your highness!" Eric says as he smiles to Charles

Charles shifted the conversation's focus "John, have you located the queen's body and the second prince?" John looked at the prince trying not to show how annoyed he was with him for choosing eric but he reported with a somber tone,

"We've found the queen's body, your highness, but unfortunately, the second prince's body is still missing." Charles tightens his fist but he calms himself down as he nodded "keep the searching and now everyone can leave"

Everyone was about to set out on their assignment, but the prince held them back, requesting a moment of private conversation with John and Han. "John and Han," he addressed them, "I need to have a word with you before you go. Don't leave just yet!"

John and han sit back as eric and aria left… "john you are going to teach han how to control his power we need him if anything happens" as the prince said that there was a moment of silence fall On both of them

Han was stunned at the turn of events. "Me?" he echoed, unsure of why he was being included. "your highness I refuse to train him he know nothing about forcing his strength to his life core"John protested,

declining to train Han due to his lack of knowledge about forcefully exerting strength on his life core. Charles smiled mischievously, replying, "It's your responsibility now, and you're free to use any method you see fit."

John's smile turned chilling at the prospect, "Any method, you say?"
