130. The Crown Prince's Curse

In the end, we did not manage to catch the mysterious figure of the kidnapper and the killer. The Second Prince decided to return to the palace and I followed him. I was asked to return to my room only and let the two aides who were in charge of guarding the Second Prince's room door to guard him while in the room.

I followed the request, at least in front of him. But once I had entered my room, I immediately slipped out again, passed by and hid behind the roof to ensure the safety of the second prince.

I thought, this mission given to me must have some ulterior intent. How could the system possibly provide such a mission if the Second Prince was indeed not in danger. It could be that someone or something has been eyeing his life or he himself is now planning something dangerous.

And my guess is correct. Right at midnight when almost all the inhabitants of the palace fell asleep except for the guards, the Second Prince slipped out of his room through the window.

I followed him secretly. As expected, he was still curious about the case earlier. Apparently he returned to the scene of a kidnapping by the kidnapper and the mysterious killer.

“Disclose your true smell.” I heard him say a spell. Then after, it appeared that he was observing something that my sharp eyes did not see while seemingly following in his footsteps. I followed him from behind secretly.

Apparently, he stopped, no, to be exact he went back to the palace. The Second Prince swiftly passed through the palace wall fence and a moment later I followed him through the same wall fence. I can't believe he's headed to the First Prince's palace aka the crown prince of this kingdom.

It looked as if the Second Prince had secretly sneaked into the crown prince's residence. Behind him, I followed him unbeknownst to him by hiding the figure of my existence.

“What does he want? Don't tell me he wants to kill the Crown Prince in order to take his place? If caught, he is guaranteed one hundred percent that he will be hanged regardless of his statutes as a royal family for having committed a great betrayal of the country.” I murmured in my heart.

There were many bodyguards watching over the crown prince's room. However, as important as the crown prince's position was, wasn't the bodyguard who guarded his room too much even more than the King's room guards. Out of curiosity, I also passed through the roof gap to peek at what the Crown Prince was actually trying to hide by hiring so many bodyguards like this.

It appeared that the chestless Crown Prince was emitting a black aura all over his body.he seemed to be trying hard to hold his voice back so as not to roar. Although I did not experience it directly, I could feel the pain she was suffering. But this, what exactly happened to the Crown Prince?

However, my curiosity, it was answered in a short time. From behind the shadow, he suddenly pulled a woman and I saw that he was about to suck the energy of his life. It seems that's the girl who disappeared last night. So it turns out that the Crown Prince was the perpetrator of the sadistic kidnapping and murder.

Before the girl's life energy was sucked out by the Crown Prince I descended down and kicked the Crown Prince's face, no, that Demon's face.

Hearing the sound of commotion from within, the guards who were watching over the Crown Prince's residence instantly charged inside. How shocked they were when they saw the face of the Crown Prince they knew was no longer human, but rather that of a violent demon.

The Crown Prince was immediately wild and I took advantage of the opportunity to save the hostages. The Crown Prince killed by slaughtering all of his own bodyguards so savagely that I was nauseous to see him.

I also used my telepathic style to call Kaiser's brother here along with his patrolmen's friends to this palace to see firsthand the incident to capture the crown prince who had become a vicious demon.

I thought everything had gone smoothly where I could buy time by fighting against the human-shaped demon until the patrolman came to verify the incident because the Crown Prince's fault was back in his human form, he could have been me who broke into his room and killed all the bodyguards who were trying to protect him.

But foolishly, the second prince who had watched the residence had also come out by fighting against the Crown Prince who had been possessed by the devil.

“Hey, Foolish Prince, why are you also following in?! Can't you keep an eye on the incident?!” I shouted cursing at the foolish prince by forgetting his status as a state magnate.

“Hahaha. I thought it was you, Adrian. Even if you wear a face mask, I might forget the smell of the people who have served me for 10 years.” Reply the second prince with origin.

“You what else do you mean? Don't make everyone misunderstand!”

I saw after hearing the voice of the second prince, the Crown Prince's cruelty in his demonic form subsided. Slowly, he returned to his human form.

“Kakak.” As soon as the Second Prince was about to approach the Crown Prince then I prevented him swiftly.

No one will know what is on the Crown Prince's mind right now. Is he really still his old self or really been swallowed by the darkness. Seeing what he had done to those innocent weak women, I believe the second answer is probably the right one.

“Adrian? Why are you preventing me from hugging Brother?”

“You still ask him when his condition is like that?”

Hearing my answer, I saw the Second Prince looking at me intensely as if he was going to punch a hole in my own head. But I kept my position to protect him. After all, my mission in this world is to protect him until the day of his coronation as king.

Thus, with the crown prince now involved in black magic, it was certain that the position of crown prince would be passed down to the Second Prince.

“I'm sorry, my sister.” Said the crown prince.

“Do what Brother apologizes for now?! If you know that it is the wrong thing, why until you get involved with black magic to the heart of killing many of our innocent citizens.”

“This is all because our three neighboring kingdoms have made a secret agreement to coup our kingdom. We don't have enough conventional power to deal with it. I think only this disgusting way can protect our kingdom, at least for now.”

“Lantas how Big Brother will face attacks and other kingdoms that strongly oppose the existence of black magic, also what will Big Brother do with public sentiment?”

The Crown Prince nodded.

“Now seems to be enough, my sister. Actually, I want to gather even more energy so that the curse is bigger. But not much time. My crimes have been exposed. Now it's your turn to be the successor to the crown prince's glass.”

Saying that, the crown prince disappeared into the shadows. We didn't initially know what he meant, but once we heard news from abroad about the spread of curse energy in the three regions of the kingdom in the west that caused the three kingdoms to go into crisis, he said, we soon knew what it meant.

The First Prince had originally intended to sacrifice himself by applying black magic in hopes of destroying the three kingdoms that wanted to destroy his kingdom. His actions had truly saved the kingdom, but on the other hand, he had killed blindly the innocent people of another kingdom.

Recorded more than ten thousand victims in the three countries in this disaster in just a day and continue to experience increased casualties. Fortunately, the energy of the curse is only in the three kingdoms so that people who are outside the territory of the three kingdoms, are not affected as a result.

No one knew it was the crown prince. As soon as Kaiser and the patrolmen arrived at the scene, the Crown Prince had disappeared from his room where dozens of corpses were scattered there as if being pounced on by a savage beast.

The incident was concluded as an attempt to assassinate the Crown Prince, but everything cannot be concluded with certainty because of the disappearance of the Crown Prince's body. This incident also became a rumor associated with the disappearance of some slum residents lately. Until here it was true, but later rumors say that it was all done for the sake of the creation of black magic to kill the crown prince.

In fact, it was the Crown Prince who was involved in black magic and now his body has been destroyed along with the curse he brought to the three kingdoms.
