The Master of Uradan - Chapter 150
Rohan directly headed toward one of the inns of the city. The cost for a night wasn’t high, and even if it was, Rohan didn’t care at all.
He booked a room and without looking back, he entered inside. It was a small room, with only a bed and nothing more. There were better inns with rooms made for rich people and even special ones for nobles, but Rohan’s plan wasn’t even to sleep here anyway, and the more inconspicuous it was, the better.
He sat down on the floor and took out a sheet of paper, as well as a small bottle of ink and a pencil from his bag. He could only thank Delia for giving him all of that, as he didn’t know where he could find paper.
He quickly wrote something, and a few minutes later, Rohan left the room and the building. He headed straight for his family’s estate, but he wasn’t planning on showing himself as a flower. He was still searched by everyone after all.
It only took a short amount of time for Rohan to reach the area, where a large estate took its place. Several buildings were protected by a small wall, while a couple of guards stood in front of the large portal.
Some people were walking around, and Rohan engaged with one of them after being sure the guards couldn’t see him. It was a man that was simply passing in front of the estate to go his way, and the moment he heard the offer made from the man with a hood in front of him, he quickly accepted.
Rohan asked him to hand over the letter he had written to one of the guards for him to give it to the young master Luke. He gave him two gold coins and also asked him to give one to the guard to bribe him.
The man was obviously enchanted with such a lucrative offer and accepted it easily. In no time, he walked toward the guards to perform his task. Rohan wasn’t afraid of this random man cheating and fleeing with his money, as he could catch up with him in a second anyway.
When the guard took the letter as well as the gold coin, he immediately set off from his post and headed toward the largest building, letting his buddy keep the gate alone.
Ten minutes later, the guard finally came back, and since everything was done, Rohan walked away. His direction was the inn in which he had reserved a room, where he would wait for his brother to come.
He waited patiently inside the small room. His heart throbbed faster in his chest as he thought back at everything that happened to him. His journey was far from being uneventful, and he could even say that it was near hellish. To finally see his brother once again, he was excited, yet in a relaxed manner.
The time flowed, and the more he waited, the more his frown deepened. He had already been there for several hours, but there was still no sign of his brother. Did he meet some difficulties?
He stood up from the bed and walked toward the door. He put his hand on the handle, but before he could put some strength in his arm, the door suddenly swung open.
A cloaked man appeared on the doorstep. He stared at Rohan for an unknown amount of time before pushing him away without any sound and entering the bedroom. After closing the door behind him, he removed his hood as he glared with fury at the young man.
His long blond hair was tied back, and his handsome face would definitely make all women fancy this person. If it wasn’t for the obvious rage in his eyes, contorting his face, this man could have been qualified as a woman killer.
“Why did you come here?” His lips were trembling as he tightened his fists, trying to control his anger. Rohan was rendered speechless from the moment he had seen his expression and didn’t have the time to answer before the blond-haired man continued. “No one wants to see you here again! Mother doesn’t even want to acknowledge your pitiful existence, and yet you dare to point your damn nose?”
His anger was slowly shifting into a fury as he almost yelled the last words. Rohan’s expression deepened as he looked at his brother on the verge of losing his control. His calmness reached a dangerous level as all emotions left his face, leaving only a soulless mask behind.
The tough words his brother had thrown on his mouth spun in his mind, ravaging his insides as it destroyed all expectations he had to meet his brother after a long time. The two brothers stared at each other for a short time.
One was loudly breathing and ready to punch, while the other one was calmly watching without any emotion. The contest slowly stopped as Luke took a deep breath.
“Why is mother still the countess?” Rohan threw this question. He was already pissed off by his brother, and the terrible thought that his mother had betrayed him and their father before the war came to his mind. Otherwise, why wasn’t there any punishment administered to her?
“You fucking dumbass,” Luke muttered through his teeth.
He took a deep breath and released it, as well as a large chunk of pressure. He glanced at his brother before moving toward the bed.
“Can’t you think you bit? Don’t you know that the whole kingdom is after you? What do you think was their best way to attract you apart from using your family?” Luke sarcastically asked question after question. “Can’t you understand that their goal is to capture you, to chain you, and to make you their dog?”
“That is indeed accurate.” The new voice booming from the other side of the door startled Rohan and Luke as the former one unsheathed his saber.
The door opened and a man with an apologetic smile entered. “I am sorry to intrude while you are so warmly catching up with each other, but the time is counted. You don’t need to be in a battle stance. You have no chance against me, Rohan Sharkan.”
Following his words, a mighty pressure descended against Rohan and crushed him on his shoulder. His brother couldn’t resist and was already kneeling on the ground with a groan. He could only gnash his teeth.
His saber was shaking in his hands. Rohan steeled his mind as he prepared to fight against this man. He knew he had no chance to win, and from the fact he used his Aura from the start, Rohan also knew he had no way to escape. He wasn’t like the warrior from the Barren Lands.
“Under orders of the Lord Hanshen, you are now arrested in the name of the king, and you will have to kindly follow me. We have been given no boundaries to achieving our task, and using the life of your mother and brother to make you wield if necessary will be done. Please, consider it before attacking me or trying to flee away.”
The solemn voice of the man thundered in his ears, fused with Aura to explode in the inn. Rohan’s eyes flickered. He reluctantly sheathed his saber as he stared at the Advanced Warrior standing proudly in front of him. He didn’t want his brother to die for anything, and now he understood why Luke was acting this way.
Rohan had indeed been stupid to dare and come here.
