I Don’t Want This Bad Ending - Chapter 203: LET'S SEE THIS THROUGH TO THE END: PART 2

After looking and making sure that where they are right now was not a trap, Alisha and Gil decided to un-gagged Elise.

“… so you’re saying that there’s a barrier here that cancels the outside noise as well inside?”

The clothes that were full of her saliva was the proof that Elise tried hard to make a sound but only to be obstructed by the clothes that they put in her mouth.

“That was what I was saying earlier…!!!”

“Why are you shouting? Do you want to eat that clothe again?!” Alisha said as she was getting irritated at Elise.

“I’ll make sure that you’ll regret this!” Elise said through her gritted teeth.

“Oh yeah~ then try to free yourself first…” Alisha smirk when she saw Elise grip the chains in her wrist.

“You can’t, right? The people you think will rescue you must have fled by themselves by now… you’re the Saintess but I guess you’re not that important.”

Alisha was having fun provoking Elise and at the same time the look in her face, the frustration that was showing through her whole being was making her feel satisfied.

“Stop looking like that…” Gil suddenly said through their link.

“What? What did I make?”

Flustered at the sudden words of Gilbert, she was sure that she was making the face that she usually does.

Her neutral face.

“You don’t look nonchalant at all… you just did a face that a sadist does.” Gil answered.

Elise was staring at her with her confused eyes, Alisha’s reflection through her ocean eyes definitely looks like a sadistic maniac.

“Huh…?” Flustered at her own reflection, she let out her honest opinion.

“Oh, I must be happy because I can see this bitch tied up… I’ve been waiting for this since forever…”

“What did you say to Lady Alisha? Bitch…?! Are you referring to me?!”

“Yes… you’re the only bitch here, Saintess”

Elise almost couldn’t believe what she just heard. There was never a time that she was called like that.

She was revered as the Saintess, the pure lady, the innocent woman that gives the people a sense of home. She was the calm that put the hearts of the people who are in the storm to have hope.

Elise was never called like that… even the people who envy her don’t have the guts to look at her and tell it to her face.

It was because she has a high status and the citizens of the Levingstone Kingdom have her back.

That was why no one had the audacity to call her a bitch just what Alisha just said.

“Ha-haha… you don’t believe what I just called you, bitch? Don’t worry there’s more words that I could call you other than that…”

“Stop it, Alisha, we have more things to do… where’s the door?”

Elise watches Gil’s eyes that show impatience.

‘What is it that they want in the secret chamber… should I take this opportunity to make a deal?!’ Elise thought.

So, she gave it a shot.

“Why do I have to tell you about the door?!”

“This little…!”

Alisha almost tried to smack Elise, but Gil stopped her.

“I see… is this your way of saving yourself?”

“I’m not an idiot… Do you think I don’t know what will happen if I just get dragged to where you will take me?!”

Step… Step…

“I see, can you tell me what we will do after we dragged you to our place?”

Step… Step…

Elise gulped the lump in her throat. The presence of the man walking towards her was getting heavy that her shoulders won’t stop to quiver.

“You know… I don’t really have time for this useless chit-chat… Do I need to order you to do what I told you… AGAIN?”

The smoky eyes of Gil seem more colder than usual as he stares at Elise. The difference in their height also played a role that made Elise think that the man in front of her was dangerous enough to make her think about what will happen if she didn’t obey.

With her shut mouth, Elise slowly opened it and a small voice like a whisper came out.

“…I, I’ll do it”

After Gil heard her response, the heavy atmosphere that felt like the gravity was pulling her whole body down, Elise knew then that the culprit was this man’s dangerous mana.

***

Elise decided to obey them for now. What she learned earlier was her instinct telling her that the man who has grey hair would definitely kill her without mercy.

He has that eyes that tells her he didn’t see Elise as human but as a baggage. She already saw enough people who have the same eyes as him.

It was enough for Elise to retreat for now and do what they ask from her.

“It’s not my treasure anyway…” she mumbled.

“We’re here…”

Elise pointed at a large tree in the middle of the green house that was located at the back of the temple and beside the garden.

“Hmmm… I see, so this is why people didn’t know about this.”

The tree was actually so small that you would think that it was just an ordinary plant that was tall as a human.

But it was strange as the roots were big enough to think that it belongs to a century year old tree.

It also looks so normal that Gil understands why people didn’t suspect or find the door of the secret chamber of the treasure of the Temple of Light.

However, because the door also has a small amount of mana, Gil could feel it.

“This is the door huh… Then, open it…”

Gil said with his arms crossed and his sharp eyes were only staring straight at the “door” that Elise said.

Elise glanced at the back before she gulped her saliva again. She shut her eyes with force.

“You tied me up with a mana blocking chains… take this out first.”

Gil and Alisha looked at Elise with a murdering look.

Silence crept in as the two higher spirits think about what she said.

“… fine, but remember, I’ll cut your head without a thought if I feel your mana fluctuate…” Gil warned her.

Elise turned around after Alisha unchained her.

“Don’t worry… I don’t like to die yet”

Elise was smiling evilly and because Gil and Alisha were at the back they didn’t see the face that she just made.

***

King Charles and his loyal imperial knights immediately left the throne room and went to one of the passages that the previous king also used in case of emergency like this one.

“This way my king…”

One of the knights said as they assisted and surrounded the King with the available knights and the best among the Imperial guards.

“I can’t believe that my own flesh and blood would do something traitorous like this!”

King Charles was suppressing his anger towards the Crown Prince. He knew that his son was a genius among his peers since he was young.

It was the reason that the nobles pushed Edickart to become the current crown prince. That said, he also knew that being born a genius would have fatal effects on his regime.

“I should have killed that bastard when he was still young… tsk!!!” King Charles mumbled to himself.

“We will be leaving the main palace after this turn, your Majesty.” The knight at the front said.

Before they make a turn, the knights at the back made a noise.

“Ack!”

Shing! Swish!

That itself indicated that the enemies have reached them.

King Charles was furious, he turned around and saw one by one that his knights were falling down on the cold floor with their bodies drenched in their blood.

They were wearing full armor but because the Crown Prince and the

This passage was supposed to be only known to the Kings. Even the Crown Prince doesn’t know about this place until the promised time that he will inherit the crown.

Thud!

Another knight down as Allan and Crown Prince Edickart swing their sword like nothing matters and the only thing that is needed was to kill the king and take the throne.

“Your Majesty… we need to go now!!” The knight persuaded as his allies are still fighting and buying time for King Charles to safely make his way out.

“Let’s go…!”

King Charles didn’t look back again and walked hurriedly to the exit.

Though he knew that Edickart and Allan already knew the passage, there was still quite a distance from him and them.

He would have enough time to get out from here as long as the knights that accompanied him try to sacrifice their life for their monarch.

“King Charles!!!!”

Edickart called as he looked towards the King who was running with all his might.

King Charles gave his son one last look and mouthed words that Edickart could clearly read.

“I should have killed you back when I also ordered to kill that wench”

‘Wench?’Edickart thought.

The words that the King said made his suspicion clear. It was him that instigated the queen to kill his mother that time.

Edickart froze for a moment as the words sank in. He gritted his teeth while his eyes were showing full madness.

“I’ll kill you!!!!”
