Peace Offering To The Cursed Prince - Chapter 399
The next morning, Sebastian looked at the woman who was still sleeping so soundly. If her family was not leaving the kingdom that day, he would have allowed her to sleep a little more, after all, she did not get much sleep last night because of him.
“Sunshine,” he whispered not really wanting to wake her. Hearing the whispers Ellen who was not a deep sleeper open her eyes.
When she saw Sebastian looking at her, she close her eyes and was about to go back to sleep.
“Wake up, sunshine,” Sebastian’s voice was louder this time.
“I still want to sleep,” she complained.
“Well, does this mean you do not want to see your family before they leave?” Sebastian asked. As expected as soon as Ellen heard those words, she was wild awake.
Not even bothering to greet the king, she rushed into the bathroom to learn up, will Sebastian felt sour. Usually, when Ellen woke up, she will greet him with a good morning kiss him. This has been her habit since the time he lied about her death if she did not kiss him every morning.
Even when he told her the truth, she still kissed him every morning expects today. How could she forget something that important?
Feeling very angry he storms out of the room straight to the training field. One arrived the previous night and he was kneeling at the training field waiting for his punishment.
“Your Majesty,” One bowed. Sebastian stopped and look at him. From his aura, One could guess that the king was in a bad mood, but he did not know if this was his fault or the king was already angry before he arrived.
“Get on your feet and draw your sword,” Sebastian commanded. When the men in the field heard his words they felt sorry for One.
Without asking any question One drawer his sword. Just like that, he began to spear with the king while the other watched. Nobody was surprised that the fight between the two of them look like the battle of the truth.
In five minutes, One could no longer get up on his feet. Just when he thought the king will really kill him, Sebastian looked away. “I have given you to the Queen, it is left to her to decide your punishment,”
One felt relieved, the other soldiers felt sorry for him. The King has beaten him up badly, yet his fate was in the hand of the queen. Some of them even felt Jelous as they thought the queen was easy to deal with.
“Jeffery,” Sebastian called, usually the person he likes to fight with best was Jeffery.
“Your Majesty,” Jeffery stepped forward. as expected Jeffery was there to see his brother he has fought with for so many years.
“One, gather your brothers,” Sebastian instructed. The Twenty immediately step forward.
“You will have a second chance to stay back in Avalo if you can beat the twenty of them,” Sebastian said. Since he was a king he could not just take back his words.
Jeffery looked at the twenty, if it was any other day he would have been confident in beating up all of them, but he was just recovering after catching a cold.
Even if he did not know why the king was giving him a second chance Jeffery took it. He knew that changing the king’s mind was very difficult.
“If anyone dares to go easy on him, then you will face me, and I promise you will lose a hand,” Sebastian warned.
One was the first to draw his sword, he felt that the king was punishing him even if he put his fate in the queen’s hand.
Jeffery also drawer his sword, he knows that defeating One will not be so stressful, after all, he just got beaten by the king and he has not had a good rest in the last two days.
*clash*
Their sword met and the fighting began. One was not in his best so the fighting between the two of them ended under five minutes.
Without giving Jeffery the time to rest, Two charged over and the fighting continue. One after the other Jeffrey managed to pull tricks and win over them. He had fought and trained with this group from a young age so he knew their weak point.
He knew that for him to be able to win the twenty of them, he had to attack their weak point as soon as the fight began. After all the short the fight lasted the higher his chances.
Luckily they were number according to their strength so Jeffery manage to deal with the first five people who he could not be certain to win in half an hour using the trick of attacking their weakness.
Even when the six-person notice his trick, there was nothing he could do to guard against. Motivated by the hope that he could get a chance to continue to serve the king Jeffery defeated one man after another.
Soon, it was past time for breakfast, neither Jeffery none the king came over, so Ellen lead the family to the training ground to see what was going on.
Lady Bridget and Lawrence we’re happy that the king has allowed their son to return with them. They knew that most kings will never exile their right-hand man as he will leave with many of the king’s secrets.
They knew there was a chance that the king only Exile Jeffrey on the surface and that he planned to kill him. This sounded unlikely but it did not rule out the possibility. Although they tried to push the negative thoughts lady Bridget was very scared for her son.
To her it was best he remains by the king’s side, where she will not have to worry about the king targeting her son and their entire family in other to keep his secret.
When they arrived at the training ground they were surprised to see Jeffery fighting with two men they were surprised.
“I knew it, the king has plans to silent our son,” lady Bridget looked at her husband. Lawrence closed his eyes and hugged his wife.
“He will be fine, they are just training,” Lawrence replied he was not sure if he was comforting his wife or himself.
