Chapter 46: Magic Poison

It has been 5 days they arrived in the kingdom of Arrenthia until now even they were not given time to just relax. From the start they arrived, they were only told to rest for a while, then the king of Arrenthia directly to the point assigned the four of them to a place that was in trouble, or someplace else that's supposed to be the headquarters of a dark organization.

Before that, they ordered the saint to install a strong kekkai so that it could not be penetrated by those who have black magic, in anticipation of sudden attacks by the enemy.

Now they are in one of the villages that are still under Arrenthia's rule, the village looks deserted like a dead village but actually in the village there are still residents, he said, it's just that they rarely go out because the atmosphere outside is considered very unsafe and they are afraid something will happen to them such as kidnapping or human trafficking if they come out.

In one of the dwellings in the village there are four of them who are looking for information about a dark organization that trades people. They did this first because the king considered the safety of his people more important than the issue of power struggles that occurred in the kingdom.

Elaine approached Erdwan who was seen sitting relaxed while playing chess with one of the members of the house who was not even well known by them.

"Prince Shun was studying how the motives were carried out by them from several newspapers," Elaine told Erdwan, Erdwan only glanced at a glance and then turned his eyeballs off guard.

"Aren't you thinking when we relax? I'm tired of having to keep learning while doing missions, this is the same as a double job," protested Erdwan annoyed while launching one of his white knights so as to knock down the fortress belonging to the opponent.

"Our prince is busy but you're relaxing while playing chess, is that so the behavior of a private bodyguard who he says is loyal to death?" Elaine doesn't want to lose.

"I just played it a while ago, after that I will help again, after all you must be envious right? If envy comes into play..." Invite Erdwan who gets a dislike view from his partner.

"At least we have to respect the owner of this house and do things as we promised,"

"New pardon also until the time immediately comes and fights? Are we not treated as special guests? The part where the culprit is not there anyway"

Elaine was silent, she was right, they had just arrived and had just convinced the owner of the house to take them in the meantime, therefore they should be respected and treated to food, not having to go straight on a mission. "Hmmm... Right but..."

"Excuse me sir, miss, we have prepared food, you can eat in the dining room" cut off one of the women who suddenly entered their room.

"Thank you" replied Elaine and Erdwan.

The two of them went to the dining place mentioned by the woman and sat down with Prince Shun and Prince Kenn who had arrived earlier than them.

"Good to enjoy, may you like our special dishes." said one owner of the house.

They nodded briefly then began to prepare for a meal.

Prince Shun gestured for his friends not to eat before him, and they immediately understood the body language. Prince Shun then poured the dishes and rice that were already available on the table plate.

"Good meal." he said, showing a small smile as a sign of his interest in the food.

Prince Shun fed a spoonful for a spoonful of food. Not long after that Prince Kenn cleared his throat. Prince Shun forgot to allow him and others to eat so that they can only swallow saliva when they see the activities performed by Prince Shun.

"Why are you just staring? Let's eat.." said Prince Shun then with a clumsy smile. He felt a little guilty for forgetting to let them eat.

After hearing such utterances come out from the mouth of prince Shun they without ba bi Bu attacked voraciously that delicious looking food.

"Sir please drink." said a beautiful girl carrying a tray of water to Prince Kenn.

Seeing that Prince Shun immediately took his drink then gulped the water.

"Ukh..!!! It's poisonous!!" Prince Shun said as he held onto his chest. Erdwan and his friends approached Prince Shun with anxious gazes but remained vigilant.

The woman named Khell smiled faintly.

"I can't believe you're the one sent by the king! After all, the king always ignored us and was busy maintaining his power!!" Shouted one of them named Krull.

The man in this house alone numbered five people, a head of the household, his wife, and the twin women were also a man who was the older brother of the two women, his name was Nino.

"That's not true! The king also attaches great importance to you therefore we were sent to help!" Tukas Prince Kenn.

"After a long time have come to help?! It doesn't make sense!"

"Let's understand from the beginning the condition of the kingdom of Arrenthia has never improved... But we're all trying to fix it slowly, like in the capital and some nearby villages, where it looks safe, peaceful and peaceful despite a coup d'etat." Erdwan said.

"We still won't believe it! Would you believe right away if it was attended by your mother or father who has long abandoned you!"

"Wait for mom and dad's cake?" Asked Erdwan who was astonished.

"That's just a stupid basic term." replied Shun as he thrust his fist into Erdwan's shoulder.

"Prince Shun has improved?"

Hearing that question his expression immediately turned pale again, "Yahh I don't think so, I want to throw up the taste." said Prince Shun again while holding his stomach.

Nino suddenly laughed in satisfaction. "It's a magic poison that will make you unable to use magic! A special gift isn't it for our uninvited guests?"

"I got poisoned when I've never been before. ukghh!"

"Prince!!" Screaming them for being anxious.

"Why are you doing this to us?! We have no evil intentions at all!" Elaine asked as she stared cynically at them.

"Wahh beautiful, unfortunately I don't know what you mean so I don't want to risk anything bad happening to us" Nino replied with a sly smile on her face.

"I wasn't exposed to the poison so I'll teach them a lesson!" Erdwan.

"Don't!" Prince Kenn is holding Erdwan.

"You don't realize that you've got it too!"

"Well?!"

"That's in the fruits I sent you before you ate.."

"No way! You want to put yourself in danger?!"

"We don't want to think about it, if you intend to leave this village then I will give you this antidote,"

"Prince.." said Elaine as she glanced at Shun.

Prince Shun did not just shut up, he chose to come forward to speak. "Although we will still help you even if with this poison, as a condition to stay here... Since our desire to help was sincere and did not expect any return, we just wanted to be allowed to stay for a while,"

They were all shocked to hear Prince Shun's words. They think why should they bother to harm themselves just for the benefit of others? It should be better to choose to leave here, that way they can bring the antidote.

The man who became the leader of her place also smiled slightly, "Well if you guys succeed then I will give her offers as well as gifts for the four of you..."

The four of them smiled with relief but in fact they knew very well that making such a decision was the same as finding danger for themselves.

After that they were provided a room to stay but only one room, no other, Elaine slept in the bed closest to the door, more precisely next to Prince Kenn, who was in the room, after that prince Shun beside Erdwan.

Prince Shun felt a little better, then he changed his position to sit still on the bed while watching them.

"Prince will the kekkai you installed in the kingdom of Arrenthia weaken?" Elaine asked Prince Shun, Prince Shun shook his head.

"His protector consists of four layers, it is impossible for the enemy to break into the kingdom." Erdwan replied.

"If someone manages to break through it then Prince Shun can do nothing to fix it, but you take it easy, as there are also some great witches guarding the main palace, thus adding to the security guarantees there," Erdwan.

"My seal's mouth is shining! Something's happened to Leca!" Shouted Prince Shun suddenly who immediately got an anxious look from all his friends there.

"Then Prince are you going to focus on controlling Chun?"

"No Chun is not controlled by me, but I share my magic power with her..."

"The message is different, so what does it mean that you created someone else to take your place in Leca?"

Prince Shun nodded, if one day Leca favors Chun more than Shun, and so does Chun, then there is a possibility that his presence could vanish, because of Chun's strong desire to change and take on his human figure.

"But take it easy, Chun and I share one soul, so I can feel what Chun feels for Leca, if it's excessive, then there's no way to eliminate it, anyways I could easily take over Chun's body and of course it would require a rather large amount of magic,"

"Yes so complicated..."

Prince Shun was silent, he seemed to focus on thinking about something, suddenly he was nauseous and felt like vomiting because he could not balance the use of magic and mana in his body.

"Prince!"

"Two people! Two people who were targeted had come! I felt something on the lookout magic that I used in areas a and c because I felt that region was vulnerable, They were also armed and had magic users,"

"Heeh let me go! I'm not a magic user anyway so the poison is useless to me" Erdwan volunteered.

"I can still use magic! It's just that this poison messes up my magic a little bit" Prince Shun said as he did not want to let his friend move on his own.

"Prince, don't be stubborn, you better rest..." Erdwan disagreed with Prince Shun's words.

"The prince will depart with me, I can still use my great martial will to protect him!" The word Elaine instead helped strengthen Prince Shun's wishes.

"I can't do anything without magic, but at least I'm adept at using millipedes" Prince Kenn said.

"Well then we for 2 teams will get to this point, me and Elaine and Princes Kenn and Erdwan will be here, remember our mission is to thwart their actions if necessary to kill them all if they do not want to provide information" Prince Shun said. The four of them nodded briefly and then left.

"Prince, let me have you," Elaine said as she saw Prince Shun a little trouble walking.

"Well, I don't think there's any harm..." Prince Shun replied, and they left.

Elaine secretly smiled cunningly, like tucked away something she was hiding, it was possible that she intended to do something bad to someone she should be protected by. While Prince Shun also secretly knew of his suspicious expression, but he did not want to take a headache and choose a bite.

Elaine attacked from behind them, she could sense that they had a strong black magic aura, then instantly gave her kick to her target.

Someone else was preparing to help, but his intention failed because it was blocked by Prince Shun.

"Hey tell me what your purpose for coming here is and who's it for?" Prince Shun asked before giving out an attack that instantly subverted the bodies of the opponents, after which his existence simply disappeared.

"Ck! Illusionist!" Prince Shun clucked angrily then turned his gaze towards Elaine who turned out to be the target of two people at once.

"El!!"

Prince Shun pulled Elaine's body after which Prince Shun was immediately blown into the air by the attacks of his two opponents.

Elaine who received such treatment just smiled a little, then instantly changed her expression into panic.

"Prince Shun!!" He shouted while running towards Prince Shun who was injured to bleed a lot.

"Ahh..my healing magic is useless, this is too little." said Prince Shun while staring at the seal in his orange shining hand, rather he had already used the healing magic on Leca.

"I'm sorry, prince, but you can't fight under these circumstances" Eaine said, waving her in the Prince's face, knocking her unconscious.

He started grinning then laughing wickedly, in fact he was lying, he would not have eaten anything from that house, he was just doing magic that made it seem as if he was doing that.

"Now you are my opponent" he shouted with a cynical smile and pointed at them one by one.

"SHADOW BLASTS!"

DHUAAR!!

The magic produced an ear-splitting explosive sound, so Elaine as the user herself pressed her own ears with both palms.

"Ups, I'm missing!, they're all on being black granules..." Elaine muttered while flabbergasted in amazement at the black rukh form scattered before her.
