"Miss, are you really going to live at the palace starting next week?!"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxLKsyy5kN
Sloan raised her brows. "Now, now, you've all heard it from father, don't you?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL3RdQ7KGA
The younger knights bowed their heads. Sloan chuckled.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEepl8ebeY
"Is there anyone going to stop me?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq66LX5fzg
All the young trained knights at the training grounds stood straight, determined. Sloan almost choked in her saliva.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMnbpCt0a2
"If you're going to stop me, you all should stop the prince first."
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwbMsNrDcS
They all seemed to lose hope when they heard her say that. Sloan smiled.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcfLGY6I1H
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaFhBpVkWr
"Miss, if you live at the palace and become a queen someday, would you go visit us still?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDm7kaOqFgb
Sloan blinked. She looked down, and smiled. "Of course, why I wouldn't?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRPSyGtUVT
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!"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ltwbCRd7c
"How kind, Rovan,"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P6gSYA96G
The strong wind swayed her hair as she blankly smiled.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNKhOCkuHu
"I'm going to be a wife now, aren't I?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRY9cPouF7J
"Miss, you can back out!"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gfmfxitX0
Sloan snorted. As if she can.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTmN92KmZx
"I wish," She whispered and turned around. "Go train now, I apologized for interrupting you all,"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwrXqh47aD
"NOT AT ALL!" They shouted.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCThpu3KwL
Sloan grinned while shaking her head, heading her way to the drawing room where her father was.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMs162jAof
"Sir," Sloan called.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOerKUj7DvO
Shae almost slammed the table. "Sloan, I told you to call me Father. Do I look like a visitor to you everytime?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nvK8k8MQO
Sloan looked down and chuckled. "I apologized, Father,"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWMSvvLR90
Shae clicked his tongue and signed her to sit. "What makes you head your way here? Any problems going on?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiQmuENpKV
"I need a carriage, I need to go somewhere."
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PXEIcRs4J
"...Again?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQpEvxGxkD
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..."
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmxDm4OPTA
Shae nodded. "Bring a knight with you,"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BXepoaVrn
"I can, myself,"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5m53psT9Th
Shae raised his brows. "No, Sloan,"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq2lM9YF0B
"Yes, Father."
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWXT1I7fPb
Shae sighed. "...I don't know anymore, daughter. Just go."
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXSVYPAT9A
Sloan smirked. She bowed to him and left the drawing room. Shae could only suffer in silent torment.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U1okz74uM
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo480QC3Lun
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0kIuZcCpv
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xeJSWmOgE
Sloan too, she felt attached too her ever since as she can remember. She can even pass as her mother in other life.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEhsMrLHfi
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkSeoAGrev
Is it a bear? A monster?
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o7OMEPqGt
As she thought of that, her heartbeat goes rapid, like it's going to burst out of her any time.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgNpGgVgf4
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9OQQR6kQN
Sloan gulped, terrified.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvUVIIjfN8
"COME OUT!" She shouted, her knees was shaking.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvKTzr6lX1
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcwg4wy4aw
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!
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDw6ettGR81
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!
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEmm6pUkNg
She can fight, Sloan can fight. But she can't win! She won't win! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! SHE'S GOING TO DIE!
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjL5miJZKW
JUST WHO IS THIS PERSON?!
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHD1WkXrxp
"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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyGhi03eGS
"Captain? Why can't you just say 'father?' Aren't you the child of that bastard prodigy that destroyed my life?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXSNL4oxvn
Destroyed his life? What????
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjscWNjUfEW
"What are you---! My father...he's not someone who ever wanted to destroy someone else's life!"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6ORlljG3T
"Oho! That's right, he doesn't know!"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5hubo6gB2
What???
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KZLWlAn5F
"He doesn't know what?! Just what do you mean?! Are you fucked in the head, old man?!"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgpp69jHqj
He smiled again, creepily. Sloan wanted to run, but her feet stayed, she felt so terrified. She tried not to stutter.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWzrkViFpR
"Old man, you say, I'm almost the same age as your father."
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ofNgMXPot
Really??? What the hell??? He looks like my grandfather!
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIq92VFVmL
Sloan gulped. This is crazy. She's gonna die. Run!
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7oFPataJn
She tried to move her feet. But the man warned her.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPxnj5lJfe
"One move, I'll cut your head off, young lady."
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPw0ZtW7ll
Sloan's pupils dilated. She almost fell her sword.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfKG5M2dVv
"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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oqSf5YzFQ
Foolish? Stupid? Low life bastards? He know my mother? He called her stupid...for having me? What's my fault?
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CaeFtjzqR
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum0upW6zip
Sloan attacked, it was fast, the creepy man's instincts happened too slow, he didn't realized until his chest was deeply stabbed.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVF1EfZoKz
His face twisted. "You little---"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHcw2QtThy
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfou9lviz50
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdw9darjxB
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ecxYc8uG0
I'm alive. How?
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtIQBXoviE
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77d9sltATG
She don't want this.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdmVKORjQx
This is so painful.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSl1rNATh4
The wounds. Her body can't move. She can't breathe like a normal person could.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJ2oEv0lk5
She want to die.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyaEZj69Gw
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!
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1qiCTQVZQ
She tried again, but it failed. Her tears began to fall.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIqT8dFOcs
"MOTHER!!!" She screamed, crying. "FATHER!!!" She coughed.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5rGc8ujCp
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFdrtRFjES
"MOTHER! FATHER! WHY CAN'T I---" She screamed again, crying.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEqGVbjb3H
Gale, her mother, rushed to her with eyes suffered for crying the whole week.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQe8u1H6bZk
When Gale hugged her tightly, Sloan thought of wanting to do it too. But she can't do something. So she cried even more.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprUDTe8LMM
"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...!!!"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS4Dabqv7m
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,"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJvbKHePTT
All Sloan could do was cry.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JIjGVYkU2
Shae clenched his fist and told the knight to call the physician at the first floor and told him that Sloan was awake.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSVnIJVUMW
Gale, still crying, turned her head to Shae, who was walking at a fast pace towards them.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuQIvlW9Zu
"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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAT9A3p2JK
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KZNKM9Fad
They could only know after their child was not in this condition anymore.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiB9CNefsE
Sloan was asleep for a month. She never woke up until then.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRH8qut0Ih
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsYXhwqOO4
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGPUXhBBn2
Gale was the most patient for Sloan to get better. She never left Sloan the whole days for four months.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI47oZBROtJ
"Sloan, would you mind if we go outside? Do you want to see flowers?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLMsEP0BwD
Sloan silently shake her head. She pointed the floor, signing 'only here'.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQNEKbCxKq
Gale could only suffer in silent torment.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLJPrNFcJb
Shae too.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzknzTPh7H
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzJoSHTGf9
"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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1Iiv5hsCJ
Sloan shakes her head, pointing the floor. 'Just only here.'
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvd0pz2WMX
They couldn't do anything in those months but to stay by her side.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqL5JxdLpO
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU473RS2Brz
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuK1pZAEiQT
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiupUsB5Cl
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRXkeWsV0f
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKAWZQUBjm
The first person who was awakened was Gale, who rushed to the kitchen, and saw Sloan.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlosIcvVBC
"Sloan...what are you...???"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiQX6SgOPz
"...Mother?"
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7XAcz3z8L
Gale was astonished, having to hear her talk again.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hx9mbZwRZ
"What...Sloan? Baby? You can..."
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EHJbeqV5m
"Mother..." She repeated.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNoDZPTJVb
Gale's heart almost burst out of happiness and relief and rushed to get her a jar of biscuits.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPahVMeMVR4
"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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlmzUAZdBi
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz78SsV0x3R
Shae cried too.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDEmdeNDew
The entire house was rejoiced once again.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sDf7p5Dzi
"That's a terrible and funny memory," Sloan whispered to herself as her lip's corner lifted.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI6kdkJ3hX
After that happened, Sloan described the creepy man to her father.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHqVotUr9w
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVCH5IbUWO
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfelbc9WmV
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBFfwy0N1j
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.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ne3qlGNn9
Shae knows, that Gale never once changed her mind since she was decided and determined.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuv748ZyBZ
That way, they will live in peace.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjl1GnhAgk
Sloan looked outside the window and her fingertips travelled through the window glass.
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRtiV5wFz9
There was a snow outside, falling slowly through everywhere.
