Fake Princess
Cdlx Chapter
The two men brought us closer to the fence, the second step of the horse we were riding stopped as two guards standing on either side of the fence blocked us with spears in their hands. “Where are you going?” I glanced at one of the guards who stepped foot near our horse.
The man in front of me opened the headgear on the robe he was wearing, his head slightly lowered to the side, towards the guard I meant, “kami, kami, ordered Prince Alma Mateo to look for something,” said the man was brief.
“We, are not allowed to open the fence to strangers,” replied the guard while lifting a little view, “come back inside,” said the guard back while moving his index finger towards us.
The man riding on the horse in front of me grabbed and grabbed the guard's index finger, he moved a little bit of his hand until the guard groaned in pain with both feet also slightly bent beside our horse. “What are you doing?!” The other guard who walked over with a spear he was holding was pointing at us.
“Prince Alma Mateo, higher status than your Lord. If we finish you both off, there is no punishment whatsoever for us, as we are only carrying out orders directly from the Prince. However, if one of you hurts us .. Don't expect, your life will be forgiven by him,” I glanced at the man who was in front of Eneas, the man raised his head slightly followed by his eyes which glanced sharply at the guard who looked deathly pale hearing his words.
My eyes turned again to the guard whose finger was broken by the young man before me, the guard fell down with one hand clasping his palm tightly when the young man or I meant Alma's bodyguard, release the grip of his hand on the guard's index finger earlier.
“Open the door! Don't waste our time,” continued the man sitting behind me by raising his index finger towards the fence.
The guard long stared at him before he lowered his head then stepped closer to the fence. He opened and pulled the fence open.Slowly, the horse we were riding passed the fence and began to run fast and faster when the fence or guard was beginning to be invisible.
“Do you know the weed pastures that are on the roadside?” I said softly until the young man sitting in front of me slightly looked back.
“Is there something there?” He asked back before turning his eyes forward.
“Once you go, I just want to make sure. Can you speed up your horse, if you can't .. Let me, who rides it straight away,” my mouth answered a tongue-tie from him.
I looked back as the horse we were riding was further away from the man riding with Aeneas. I reflexively hugged the man's waist as the horse we were riding raised both of its front legs upwards before finally stopping.
“What happened here?” I glanced at him who was moving his horse closer to the carriage with two male corpses around it.
Didn't anyone help their bodies?
“What could they possibly be robbed?” I pretended not to know what happened, “do we have to help them?” I asked back what was answered by the man's head.
“He seems to be a Noble, will make trouble for us if it helps them .. Because the worst possibility, we ourselves will be suspected as the mastermind of his murder, he said,” revealed the man before he moved his horse away from the carriage.
“What's up?” We stopped again as his friend who was carrying Eneas stared at us from the horse he was riding.
“Nothing, only two corpses were not cared for,” the young man replied as he directed the horse we were riding towards the field of weeds.
I slightly raised my face as the horse we were riding was splitting the vast field of weeds, “try, in that direction,” I said by pointing to the right.
“Actually, what is there?” He asked back while trying to look at me who was behind him.
“I heard a legend of this place, I just want to prove the truth of that legend. That's it,” I said, I squinted both eyes .. Trying to clarify the view.
The more our horse walked forward, the stronger the foul rancid smell that spread into the nose. I glanced slightly at Aeneas who closed his mouth tightly using the palm of his hand, trying to hold back the nausea that spread in his body. I unconsciously grasped the clothes that the man in front of me was wearing, when his friend who was with Aeneas vomited a lot of his entrails from the horse he was riding.
“Are you okay?” He asked his friend as the horse we were riding approached them.
“What is this place? Why is it so rotten?” Reply to the man by regurgitating mucus mixed with food from his mouth.
I cast off my gaze, avoiding them. I tightly closed my lips and nose using my arms, as hard as I could try to expel the looming nausea. I held my breath as I moved down from the horse.
“What are you doing, Princess?”
I stopped my footsteps and turned to look at him, “aku, will check it out myself. You, just take care of my friends and sister,”, I said before continuing.
Again my footsteps came to a halt when a voice fell from behind, “Prince, commanding me to guard you. I, will lose my honor in the presence of the Prince if I am not able to do his orders,” said the young man who had also jumped down from his horse.
“How about your friend?” I said with a slight glance towards the man sitting in front of Eneas.
“He will keep your sister here,” his timpals who also direct his eyes glancing towards Eneas.
“Nee-chan, if you go, I'll be-”
“Eneas,” I said cutting off his words, “you are still not used to this stench. Stay here!”
“But nee-chan.”
“What if there is an enemy there, and I am forced to hide to avoid it. Are you able to linger in that stench?!”
Eneas was silent as I said it, “you guys, still think of me like a child,” quipped as she cast her gaze, trying to avoid my gaze.
“I never did. Instead, mature men, will know their limits.. They will think of something several times before doing it... Will my actions hinder the journey of my colleague? Am I going to trouble them?”
“If you still don't understand it? Lyrically, men, Knights who are near you,” I said as I glanced at the bodyguard Alma who was sitting near Eneas. “I'm gone, if I haven't come back by sunset, find me immediately. I'm counting on you, my sister,” connect me while turning around and stepping away from them.
