A voice sounded in the crowd farther away. Semak’s eyes brightened; he suddenly saw Little Prince Tropinski squeezing out of the crowd and appearing in the circle.
“Your Highness, help me Your Highness. Chambord has betrayed the Empire! This evil king is planning to take on Zenit Empire……” Semak forgot all about his knight’s temperament and class. He crawled and rushed to Tropinski’s side. He kneeled down and cried, “It’s so cruel! This evil king murdered the Imperial Cavalry. He even commanded his troops to wipe out the entire Royal Canonization Legion!”
All the blame and faults had been skillfully pushed onto Fei by Semak.
After Little Prince Tropinski looked at all the severely wounded and almost dead cavalry on the ground and the panicked Knight Captain Semak, he questioned Fei angrily, “King Alexander, what is this? You better give me an explanation!”
Little Prince Tropinski was having a lot of fun tonight. This poor and remote kingdom had allowed him to experience an unprecedented freedom and happiness; there were no more imperial teachers following him everywhere he went and telling him again and again what not to do. He didn’t have to pay close attention to his father’s – Emperor Yassin – mood and act accordingly, nor did he did have to swallow his anger from the insults of his older brothers Arshavin and Zhirkov. Here, he felt the warmness of the citizens, and was able to run and dance around the bonfire happily. This type of freedom was rare at St. Petersburg.
This unprecedented party had slowly removed all of his dissatisfaction and bias towards Alexander. A few moments ago, he heard the Chambord citizens beside him proudly discussing Alexander’s brave and heroic stories again and again. He even thought to himself, “It sounds like this King Alexander is a great man. Interesting, maybe we could become friends……”
But, what happened in front of him had angered greatly.
Due to the crowding citizens, he had arrived after more than half of the situation had already taken place, so the Little Prince didn’t know the whole story. However, it didn’t matter if what Knight Captain Semak said was true or not. As the prince of the Empire, Tropinski felt that the majesty and dignity of the Empire was severely challenged. He had to stand up; if Alexander wouldn’t give him a reasonable explanation, then the consequences would be catastrophic.
However, the response Fei gave shocked him. He couldn’t believe it –
“Explanation? Explain what?”
Fei’s mouth drew out a disdainful arc. As if he heard something ridiculous, he continued to walk forward; he approached Semak slowly and steadily, one step after another. The golden sword felt like the life harvesting sickle of the Grim Reaper, with coldness diffusing from it. Fei stared at Tropinski and said coldly, “Your Highness, don’t make the wrong choice. Step aside or die!”
“You……”
Little Prince was enraged.
At that moment, he clearly felt the undisguised murderous intent from the opponent. He didn’t doubt that if he continued to block Fei’s path, this young king would kill him without any hesitation – even if he was a high ranked imperial prince……However, it was the dignity of the imperial prince that forced him not to beg or please Alexander like the last cavalry did. Although Tropinski was not a hero or even a warrior and had inappropriately attacked Fei before, at this moment, Little Prince knew that he wasn’t just protecting the Knight Captain Semak, but rather the dignity of the entire Zenit Empire.
Therefore, although Tropinski knew he wasn’t a match for his opponent, he still had to draw his sword.
“Eh?”
Fei wasn’t expecting this kind of behaviour from the prince. He didn’t know that this playboy looking prince could be so tough in this situation……but, he was only surprised. His pace didn’t slow down at all. Everyone had something that they wouldn’t allow anyone else to touch, and whoever violated this would face the consequences. Even if the Emperor of Zenit – Yassin was in his way, Fei wouldn’t hesitate to strike him.
At this moment, under the shade of a huge god statue at the side of the square, someone was getting impatient.
“That guy is too audacious……” The female knight Susan who was hidden under a large cloak said angrily. She turned around and said to the other person hiding under the large cloak, “Your Highness, please allow me to go and kill him.”
“You can’t take him on.” The princess shook she said lightly.
“How is that possible? Your Highness, I respectfully disagree. I’m a three star warrior; even if that savage was able to defeat Second Prince’s vile jackal Semak, he is no match to me!” It was obvious that Susan didn’t trust princess’ judgement.
The princess shook her head and ignored Susan. She turned around and said to another person, “Knight Captain Romain, it looks like you have to take action yourself this time.”
“It’s my pleasure to serve Your Highness.” The cloaked man took off the cover on his head. It was the tall and b
