Klaus found Augustus in the wing of slaves. He had already managed to drive everyone in one room. The whole servant, accustomed to obeyedly obey, sat quietly, straying into a heap and only their advanced eyes and quiet sobs of children gave fear.
"Where is the Pritik?"
"He combs the estate. We should not miss a single slave. And who is this with you?"
"This is a former high-born, then I will tell you everything, and now we need to discuss something important. Plans changed, contact Gorald. Today we will not capture the estate."
"In what sense? Are you crazy, Klaus?"
"There are reasons for this. To begin with, contact Gorald."
"I hope you know what you are doing," August said displeasedly, taking out a communication stone.
"Professor, make sure that it is quiet here? We will leave for a couple of minutes."
"Of course, Your Highness."
"Gorald, here our Klaus drove a little roof. I don't know the details yet, but we cancel the capture plan. Turn your army, we retreat."
- Are you all right there?
- Yes, we really haven't done anything yet.
"Then I have to ask you to think again." There may not be a second chance to capture the estate.
- What are you talking about? - Klaus intervened in the conversation.
"Your ... Klaus, we caught the scouts when they spotted you near the secret entrance, but one of them slipped away. After the interrogation, we learned that these three were supposed to report to the estate, and the one who disappeared, probably already reported your appearance to the king. If we step back now ..."
"Do not continue, I already understood everything."
Klaus realized that all his plans have the habit of crumbling. If they leave now, then the king will simply try to transfer the queen to another place, but it will not be here. He will be able to turn everything in his favor. They will lose the advantage.
"Okay, we act according to plan. We will simply endure the time when we introduce a living proof of his act later."
"Do you want to continue to hide the queen?" August was surprised when he turned off the stream of magic from the communication stone.
"August, she is not in her mind now, and outwardly did not change at all due to the witch's mixtures. If we introduce her in this state, then I do not know how everything turns out."
"Her condition can benefit us."We will show the people what the king brought to her. As for her personality, the sign will confirm her."
"It's easier to show. We will wait for the Pritik and three will go to her. You yourself will see everything."
While they were waiting for the Pritik, Klaus told August his plan and his hopes to return the Queen's mind. The captain promised to talk with the Brod. This master of poisons and an excellent doctor may also be able to help something.
The ringing of the bell was heard at the very moment when Pritik opened the door and brought one girl a slave.
"What is this?" August asked, without specifically addressing anyone.
"Minami's have insomnia again," Vitos answered, "she calls the servant."
"Great. Come on?" Resolutely stepping to the still open door of Klaus, "Protik, they are on you."
"I obey, yours ... Mr. Klaus."
Three men stood near the queen's room, from which the bell was heard for the third time.
"Well, August, are you ready to meet my mother?"
"Oh, how unexpected it is, Klaus. You suddenly decided to introduce me to your parents!" the captain and Klaus discharged the tension with a joke even grunted something like a laugh.
The first entered Professor Skotsky.
"I did not call you. What are you doing here at all, I told you that until you fulfill my request, you can not return."
"I just brought you the one you wanted to see so much."
Minami abruptly stood up from her chair and a crazy smile blossomed on her face.
"He came! Ah, he nevertheless understood his mistake and came to pray for forgiveness!"
"No, mom. I came to help you." Klaus seemed from the doorway.
"You son of a bitch! Do not dare to call me that! Look at me how I can be your mother! I'm young, beautiful! You must pray me for forgiveness, for rejecting me last time and fled!"
"Calm down, Minami..." Vitos tried to admonish the woman.
"Shut up! You promised that you would do everything for me, and you united with him to humiliate me even more!"
The tantrum ended as abruptly as it began. The woman's face softened, and she gracefully moved towards the prince. Klaus strained a little, but remained standing still.
"What a face, and these eyes! You are so beautiful," the crazy to Klaus turned. "You yourself came to me, oh, how I was waiting for this," she extended her hands to the prince's chest and he involuntarily stepped back a step back.
"Are you serious about me?" The crazy shine returned to the woman's eyes and the prince decided that he could not hesitate to herself further.
He held out his hand to her face with mines and touched the point between the eyebrows, pouring all the knowledge about another world into the head of the woman.
"What is this? The woman asked dumbfounded. What was it now?"
"Vitos, it's time."
The man took out a bubble with sleeping pills, opened and handed it to Klaus. He did not stand ceremony, pressed his mother's cheeks and poured the contents into her mouth, throwing his head back so that Minami had no other choice but to swallow the contents.
"And you are a persistent boy," coughing up, a woman smiled and reached for the prince, but did not manage to do anything. The mother went limp in the arms of her son and stuck evenly.
"Everything went better than I thought," the professor remarked.
"Did she try to seduce her own son?" Augustus asked, entering the room.
"Seduce, then kill," the prince answered casually, laying the woman on the bed.
"If you heard what she said about you about you," Vitos shook his head.
"Not worth it, I don't want to know that. She is not in her mind."
"God, it's just .... How are you?"
"Forget, August. I'm fine. I need to open the portal. God, they must first be transported to the underground city. The portal in the house of the Pouoka acts from there."
- I will ask the Pritik to open the portal and change with his in security. What to do with the flags and the Army of Gorald?
"The old woman said that the potion is strong. Let's first figure out the capture, and then we will send the professor and the queen."
"A good thought."
Professor Skotsky refused to leave his girlfriend alone, so Klaus went to hang the flags with August alone. Gorald with his detachment was already waiting for a signal. Young people had a few more minutes. They went down to the main entrance and lurked behind the tapestry to meet enemy soldiers at once.
"Klaus, what happened in the few days that you were absent?"
" Now is not the time to talk, August."
"In recent days, you always have excuses. Talk to me!"
"What do you want to hear?" the prince sighed tiredly.
"Why did you return it back?"
"I had good reasons for this, I eh ..."
"No, I want to hear these reasons."
"Let's just say it is more dangerous to stay there than here."
"Are you his mommy? Why are you baking about him like that? Who is he for you?"
Klaus sighed doomedly. He understood that this conversation would someday happen, but he also understood that someone could be painful for someone. He regretted again about his decision. He looked at August, and introduced himself in his place. What would he feel if Egor told him that he had chosen another? Pain? Disappointment? Resentment?
"August .... He is more for me than just a friend and in those few days I understood it."
"So you want to say that you chose it?"
"You can call it that. August, please. I can't really understand everything, so ..."
"Answer me one question. At the time when you were under the influence of herbs or then in a bath, you ... Then you did not feel anything?"
"I was pleased .... Not like with others, yes ... I really liked it."
"Then why?"
"Because it was like an explosion with him, I don't know as if I had lost my mind and got a surge of energy. I felt that I could turn the mountains, you know?"
"I understand, because I feel the same in relation to you. Listen, I will not give up. Whatever you feel for him now, it will not last long. Klaus, I can wait," the captain grinned sadly, "and when you understand what to be with him is problematic and painful, I will be there. I will always be there."
Klaus did not answer. The cry of the guard and the clang of swords saved him from this necessity. He took out a heavy sword, capable of only killing, and left his shelter at that very moment the main doors opened and soldiers poured into the estate.
