The Golden Throne - Chapter 118

The two of them slowly drifted off to sleep. After a while though, someone came to wake them up.

“Looks like you two have become lovebirds now. I am sorry to split you apart, but you have a problem now Liu Feng. The king of Glade is here.”, a voice rang.

Liu Feng opened his eyes and saw Alderan.

“What’s the time? How long have I been sleeping”, he asked. He saw that Amelia also fell asleep leaning on him.

“The time? The day’s over, can’t you see the sky went dark?”

“Yes, but how long has it been since it went dark?”

“About an hour maybe.”

“Looks like I have to make a proper time measurement system as well, at least for myself.”, Liu Feng noted to himself.

He got up slowly, trying not to disturb Amelia, but she woke up regardless.

“So, what is it? Why did you wake me up?”, he asked Alderan in a low voice, afraid that he would wake Amelia up.

“The king of Glade is here. You being the person he probably hates most in the whole world, it is better if you know right now. You better stay prepared.”, Alderan warned Liu Feng.

“It’s just a king, what can he possibly do to me? It’s not like he is a demon himself.”, Liu Feng joked as he started walking away.

“I’ll go back to my dorm, you better be careful around Tyrion. I heard horrible stories about the King of Glade. I heard that he became the king of GLade, not by succession, but by killing all of his siblings, even his sisters.”

“Didn’t almost all Kings ever?”, Liu Feng said.

“Exactly. When you are talking to a king, you must always be careful. Number one lesson when you prepare as a princess, or a diplomat.”

Liu Feng nodded. “Thanks, but you should know that no amount of diplomacy will save Glade.”

Liu Feng asked Alderan, “Where is he? I want to speak with him.”

“He’s in the guest rooms of the academy. But that’s where my father is. Don’t make a ruckus. My father hates Tyrion, and if he knows that they are in the same building, there will be a problem.”

“Don’t worry about that. The kings who came today went to Dilheim.”

“That was a smart move. Now, what do you want to speak to the King of Glade about?”

“Well, you’ll see if you come with me.”

“No thanks. No one wants to get in between a fight.”

Liu Feng was about to move away when he suddenly remembered something. He turned back around and looked at Alderan and Amelia, who was arousing from her sleep. “Take her back to the dorms, will you? Better not have an innocent girl sleep in the open like that. That shadow guard will be useless if more than two people attack her.”

All of a sudden, the same familiar black clad man appeared next to the two boys. Alderan jumped up in shock. He regained his composure quickly though and looked at the guard with a higher face. “Number 3. I did not know that you were so bad at hiding that you could be found out by a boy.”

The shadow guard looked down with shame. Liu Feng laughed at the scene.

“Pity the man. He is just unlucky because I care about Amelia so much. You? Not so much. Why would I spend even the slightest effort on your guard when she is not even spending the cleared effort trying to get closer to hear in on our conversation?”, Liu Feng sneered.

Amelia’s shadow guard looked at Liu Feng. “Please do not do that. It is dangerous to the royal Highness and her Highness if we are found out in the open.”, he implored.

Liu Feng waved his hand in approval and he went away. By now, Amelia was awake, but in somewhat of a daze. She started talking to Alderan, while Liu Feng was trying to look for the guest rooms where Tyrion was staying. There were a lot of buildings around, and synonymously many people.

Unable to find the right buildings, Liu Feng asked around and finally found the guest rooms after a lot of running around. He thought, “Who the hell wanted to make the magic academy so big and complicated?”

Meanwhile, in Dilheim,

“Achoo!”, Liu Man sneezed. “God damn. Someone is cursing me a lot these days.”

Liu Feng went inside the guest rooms, and saw the hall was empty. There was no one at the reception table either. He still went up and dinged the bell.

“Leave. My master is resting.”, a sound came from behind him. Liu Feng did not even turn around, because he recognized this voice very much. This was the voice of the rude man that accompanied Tyrion the last time he visited Liu Feng in the hospital.

“You should tell him that Liu Feng is here to meet him. Surely he wants to speak with me, get to know a first hand account of events”, Liu Feng said.

“Enter. Go to the first door on your right.”, the burly man said after a long pause.

Liu Feng went up to the first floor, and saw the room to his immediate right. He closed his eyes for a moment, and then smiled. He went a little more forward and opened the second door and entered it.

“How are you, Your Majesty? It seems that you are in a very bad mood, that you even wanted to kill me for something that your stupid children did.”

“You are not a normal person. You just closed your eyes once to know how many people were in the room.”, Tyrion’s voice rang out. “I was hoping that you would save me the hassle and just enter the first door.”
