42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a4GiIlaam
"Miss, are you really going to live at the palace starting next week?!"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGc46d6XdDC
Sloan raised her brows. "Now, now, you've all heard it from father, don't you?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzlxtbCffm
The younger knights bowed their heads. Sloan chuckled.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLIO1JoA5F
"Is there anyone going to stop me?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPGAFq5Aw4
All the young trained knights at the training grounds stood straight, determined. Sloan almost choked in her saliva.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXPGbHwszo
"If you're going to stop me, you all should stop the prince first."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9ypa6tB2i
They all seemed to lose hope when they heard her say that. Sloan smiled.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJs8IFp4tU
These youngsters in their place's training grounds were the ones she also trained. They're more like grew up with her, treating her like she was an older sister.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk9iGOempk
"Miss, if you live at the palace and become a queen someday, would you go visit us still?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsw5Z6xsKE
Sloan blinked. She looked down, and smiled. "Of course, why I wouldn't?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw25xDNgtLv
The young knight at the middle row shouted, "Miss, you know! Responsibilities! I'm not doubting your abilities Miss, but your health would deteriorate! You must always take care of yourself so you can always visit us!"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9n5Js2N9G
"How kind, Rovan,"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh63zl2oxV
The strong wind swayed her hair as she blankly smiled.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETKldA2PSe
"I'm going to be a wife now, aren't I?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzgIOuzsoK
"Miss, you can back out!"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JshZe6OKI
Sloan snorted. As if she can.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xkwq8wc6A
"I wish," She whispered and turned around. "Go train now, I apologized for interrupting you all,"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8SI1nebFQ
"NOT AT ALL!" They shouted.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnASq1vzSvp
Sloan grinned while shaking her head, heading her way to the drawing room where her father was.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzrpG9ek96
"Sir," Sloan called.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBaBfHsaHS
Shae almost slammed the table. "Sloan, I told you to call me Father. Do I look like a visitor to you everytime?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcxG6sXvno
Sloan looked down and chuckled. "I apologized, Father,"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoWwRemHaX
Shae clicked his tongue and signed her to sit. "What makes you head your way here? Any problems going on?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYjnS70mKs
"I need a carriage, I need to go somewhere."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeFcPQFvJg
"...Again?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFFNsWzLs1
Sloan nodded. "The child I saved yesterday was still on the physician's place. I told you about the child, the countess made him a slave..."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rnbF9Y49i
Shae nodded. "Bring a knight with you,"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EBs3fiCgt
"I can, myself,"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPiEYimmpT
Shae raised his brows. "No, Sloan,"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVcM7mmLkp
"Yes, Father."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmzO34w8Sb
Shae sighed. "...I don't know anymore, daughter. Just go."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUhS8kJkb0
Sloan smirked. She bowed to him and left the drawing room. Shae could only suffer in silent torment.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfPQz9Ew2y
The carriage was prepared afterwards, as Sloan head her way out of the place. Inside the carriage, Sloan recall the days she was a child seeing her scar on her palm near the pulse.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJz539B9GQ
The other female knight was cheerfully teaching her head-straight and pose in the training ground. The other knights troupe were on a mission. It was morning. They trained for hours. When the noon comes, the female knight, Corvina, told her that she was just going to get them some water to drink because of thirst. Sloan smiled.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSvioopfIR
Corvina was the only female knight in the troupe, and one of the strongest and determined person. Shae told Corvina to train her strictly when he wasn't around, cause Shae know the capability of her ability. Many acknowledge Corvina because of herself, and Sloan's father was one of them.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQmEK2cijX
Sloan too, she felt attached too her ever since as she can remember. She can even pass as her mother in other life.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGIPd86yWX
As Sloan was patiently waiting, she heard step noises behind her. A rustle of the fallen dry leaves, it goes around. But she can't see anyone's sillouhette or shadows. The training ground is the entrance of the forest, Sloan can barely think.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX93IhP2zx5
Is it a bear? A monster?
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oCGWhWwTF
As she thought of that, her heartbeat goes rapid, like it's going to burst out of her any time.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxMmZCby1S
She can fight, but Sloan wasn't confident in real fights, though she always wins. She has traumas in fighting, she's still a child with little experiences.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrb8WVrtPV
Sloan gulped, terrified.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwImx5XRhaO
"COME OUT!" She shouted, her knees was shaking.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKewUzkaIEb
Suddenly, she heard someone chuckled behind her. Sloan has slow instincts by that time, and her palm got a slash of a sword by trying to get away with a man who has a long white hair and a creepy face.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemANeDXlhN
Green eyes, pointed nose, pretty lips, smiling creepily. By the looks of him, he looks more than the age of forty year old. So creepy! And he's holding this black sword with him, and it's emitting a black aura!
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Km3yXkwaV
This is bad! Sloan thought, she felt it. She's already feeling it. She will die! She's going to die right now! That sword has got the craziest amount of aura! More than her sword!
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAayECqPJLw
She can fight, Sloan can fight. But she can't win! She won't win! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! SHE'S GOING TO DIE!
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezKIffVFPP
JUST WHO IS THIS PERSON?!
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK8aV594yV
"You...who are you?! Why are you doing here at the Blue Knight's Captain's territory?!" She tried to scare him, but it bounce back. She's too weak for this.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHIDS64vQ4
"Captain? Why can't you just say 'father?' Aren't you the child of that bastard prodigy that destroyed my life?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfw8seifo5E
Destroyed his life? What????
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt09dpCIgL
"What are you---! My father...he's not someone who ever wanted to destroy someone else's life!"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzj3Ffsh7X
"Oho! That's right, he doesn't know!"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdDE90cS7r
What???
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHjh65Yy9l
"He doesn't know what?! Just what do you mean?! Are you fucked in the head, old man?!"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtkqvgLDyT
He smiled again, creepily. Sloan wanted to run, but her feet stayed, she felt so terrified. She tried not to stutter.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiYvQ7Ukq7
"Old man, you say, I'm almost the same age as your father."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJBhSsBUcD
Really??? What the hell??? He looks like my grandfather!
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrMi0DDvAY
Sloan gulped. This is crazy. She's gonna die. Run!
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWwsRfEhD9
She tried to move her feet. But the man warned her.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiwacMCxi0
"One move, I'll cut your head off, young lady."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnSvsFlyIO
Sloan's pupils dilated. She almost fell her sword.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlGks7FOQU
"Good lady, you really take after your stupid father who did everything I say, Foolish ones, Like low life bastards, ha! Even your mother was stupid for marrying your father and having you, now what? They separated! Ha!" He laughed crazily, telling insults.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE7maAf9a9
Foolish? Stupid? Low life bastards? He know my mother? He called her stupid...for having me? What's my fault?
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotgMee5ysQ
That insults was blood boiling. Sloan can't think of nothing else. It triggered her spines to attack him. She will die in honor for killing this one. Nothing else will matter after she kill him.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytW3ZTXcJi
Sloan attacked, it was fast, the creepy man's instincts happened too slow, he didn't realized until his chest was deeply stabbed.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSONNIqMDc4
His face twisted. "You little---"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHctDpp3OU
That was the start of their fight. Sloan never got a chance to wound him again. Though she knows she wounded him deep, he can still fight ruthlessly. Sloan was stabbed ten times. Different parts on the body, her palm was stabbed too. She lost a lot of blood, she was miserable.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeT3xh6acq
When she fell and her sight gone blur, she thought of herself as going to meet death at eleven. The man smiled again, creepily. And that was her last memory before she lost conciousness.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4j0LoGlIe
When she woke up and regain conciousness, the first thing that crossed her mind was to thank God for still having a life. But she wondered.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhe3cMcv5ck
I'm alive. How?
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsKlbfzUMt
She tried to move, but her body contradict. She can't move! Why she can't move?! She breathed, she's having a hard time to breathe.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbQ6fswvgm
She don't want this.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeza9EgIMg5
This is so painful.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vCo0WTFbs
The wounds. Her body can't move. She can't breathe like a normal person could.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKNyByCiXj
She want to die.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkN2yXbKG62
Let me die! Just let me die, God! It's useless being like this! I like to walk! I want to meet my father and mother! I want to meet Corvina! I want to meet everyone!
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIdW9ZGB1u
She tried again, but it failed. Her tears began to fall.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FwKWoqkaB
"MOTHER!!!" She screamed, crying. "FATHER!!!" She coughed.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODMyAI5UCa
She heard rushing steps as the doors of the room opened. She could only move her head, and when she turned it, she saw her mother and father together along with the maids and knights entering the room hurriedly.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw5CoPoeTe
"MOTHER! FATHER! WHY CAN'T I---" She screamed again, crying.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsK1MVu6Co
Gale, her mother, rushed to her with eyes suffered for crying the whole week.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmK9cc4S2Y
When Gale hugged her tightly, Sloan thought of wanting to do it too. But she can't do something. So she cried even more.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IXvORJv2n
"Why I can't move? I...I want to move. I want to breathe easily...why it's so hard to breathe...mother, I'm gonna die...it's so painful...!!!"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66PnDSoEQr
Gale cried even more too. "No, you will live, alright? You won't leave me, Sloan. Please, baby? Don't leave mother, alright? It hurts, it hurts, it will be alright, it will be alright, baby, you will be fine,"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgdQ0bIfPU
All Sloan could do was cry.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlLnhIQLTb
Shae clenched his fist and told the knight to call the physician at the first floor and told him that Sloan was awake.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX3fhgbh6o
Gale, still crying, turned her head to Shae, who was walking at a fast pace towards them.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlBxahDpxF
"Shae, I don't know what to do, why can't I just take her pain? Why?" Gale panicked, shaking. Shae held her hand. He was suffering for crying the whole week too.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYqP29bAds
Their child almost died. Her heart was barely beating when she was taken to the physician's place after she was found by Corvina. And both of them wasn't around. They never knew who did that.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvhkbFCB8R
They could only know after their child was not in this condition anymore.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkprz96N0sV
Sloan was asleep for a month. She never woke up until then.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsWP0CMeR8
And when the time comes she was awake, she became mute for another four months. Sloan was always at the corner or staring at the ceiling, never wanting go out.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEghp4nDh8
Gale and Shae both talk to her everytime even Corvina, who held the most guilt of them all. Corvina told Shae what happened. Shae was a little pissed off, but then he realized that she wasn't at fault. Corvina always take good care of his daughter.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55gxPPBRf4
Gale was the most patient for Sloan to get better. She never left Sloan the whole days for four months.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SHNvt9oOO
"Sloan, would you mind if we go outside? Do you want to see flowers?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqiGDjPUPC
Sloan silently shake her head. She pointed the floor, signing 'only here'.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcl2bVrQfbz
Gale could only suffer in silent torment.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT2E7OmEs9
Shae too.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEAc8BEV61
He was also always there after his duties and finding clue who did this thing to Sloan. He can't sleep. He's taking supplements to be awake the whole days. He'd do anything.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEvMZjohLn
"Would you like us to play? Sloan, let's play, outside, not swords. If you don't want swords, let's go to the plaza. Let's buy..." Shae was interrupted.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6EHo1Cuo0
Sloan shakes her head, pointing the floor. 'Just only here.'
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7LoLANDM4
They couldn't do anything in those months but to stay by her side.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8j6Dja3yS
One night, Sloan woke up. Her mother and father wasn't around in her room. She was alone. She dreamt of that creepy man again, and this time, she already remembered his face.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCYEJIoIG2
She remembered his face again. Now, she felt like there was nothing to be afraid of anymore. Her father, she felt, was stronger than anyone else. And by saying anyone else, she meant that that creepy man was one of them. No matter how that creepy man defeat people who's weaker than him, he can never defeat what's stronger than him.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nqkCHECNX
She walked slowly, finally opening the door of her room for the first time once again. There outside, she saw the dark hallway. She walked slowly, having to recall the way to the kitchen area.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdz6OOGZd1J
She walked down the stairs carefully, not wanting to wake up anyone else of the house. She took a lamp in the drawing room and head her way to the kitchen to got some food. She felt hungry.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsV4toaYGY
But as she was reaching the jar of biscuits on the cabinet, it fell and the jar broke. By that reason, the entire people of the house was awakened, being alert of everything after the young lady of the house had this cruel accident by someone.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7QcsrLzuS
The first person who was awakened was Gale, who rushed to the kitchen, and saw Sloan.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg3iczel2p
"Sloan...what are you...???"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYJgvVRx5r
"...Mother?"
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3t6vLK6a1
Gale was astonished, having to hear her talk again.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtsbeuv2Zh
"What...Sloan? Baby? You can..."
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJJ1s1CSSt
"Mother..." She repeated.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugrfxunQKK
Gale's heart almost burst out of happiness and relief and rushed to get her a jar of biscuits.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFA4wYtp8ec
"Are you hungry?" Said Gale, tears on her eyes. Gale thought of herself that she looks stupid right now. Crying and giving her daughter food.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5FBuPwbqG
When Shae and the other knights and maids entered the kitchen area, they were shocked for a minute. They saw Gale crying and smiling at the same time, and Sloan laughing along with her. She's already talking...God.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvmL9PxnmV
Shae cried too.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3xgh6kBEX
The entire house was rejoiced once again.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLvshbeQcA
"That's a terrible and funny memory," Sloan whispered to herself as her lip's corner lifted.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ospHiotbs
After that happened, Sloan described the creepy man to her father.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRahBQGLBZ2
Turns out the creepy man was her father's rival. Shae always thought of him as greater than him at almost everything. But he has a darkness in his heart, he's always enveloped with envy. At this kingdom, many call him a fallen prodigy. The opposite of Shae, who was a named prodigy.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtlEbO69zm
He fought with Shae and left the kingdom when he lose, developed a black magic to transfer only to his sword and did wicked things. He went here for revenge, after so many years.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEVooZCcNt
Shae travelled miles to find him and kill him. He was bestowed great honor after that, even to another kingdom. He just killed the evil man that's pestering the two kingdoms for more than a decade.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNHQeEbGGS
Shae was a hero, she's also a great father, many women strive for him. But still, Gale left his place again once Sloan recovered. Sloan was then spending half of the year on her father, and half of the year on her mother.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1vaEysYDJ
Shae knows, that Gale never once changed her mind since she was decided and determined.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqBcuUHLRO
That way, they will live in peace.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3e0o2okNZ
Sloan looked outside the window and her fingertips travelled through the window glass.
42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU1sR88DS2
There was a snow outside, falling slowly through everywhere.
