Fake Princess
Ccxxxvi Chapter
"Dad, what's going on? Why did you suddenly call me?" Said Egil with two Knights walking behind him.
The door of the room closed again, Egil and the two Knights were walking closer and closer to us. I turned my gaze to Niel who was holding both hands with her eyes still fixed on her child.
"Dad, what do you need to call me?" He stood before Niel.
"Do I have to explain? You must know why I did it" he said in response to Egil's words.
"Dad..."
"Who is Sir?!" Tukas Niel with a slightly raised tone.
"Master?"
"Don't try to trick me, Egil. How dare you betray your own father?!" Connect Niel with a higher tone of speech than before.
"I, not understanding what you mean," he said, looking at Niel with his head rapidly shaking.
"Did you see the five Knights who were there?!" I said, I looked into her distracted eyes at me.
"Knight? Misguidedly..." His speech was cut off as his head moved staring at the five Knights earlier.
"You're working with them to become spies in the castle" I told him.
"I'm..."
"You almost killed me today. You're messing with the territory that your father has been taking good care of" I said, cutting off his words.
"Dad..."
"Who is Mister? Tell me, who is he?" Tukas Niel with a trembling voice looked at the child.
"I'm not..."
"Didn't you hear my words? Tell me, who is he?" Niel said back, I turned my gaze to look at the bowed Egil with my palm touching his cheek. The slap that Niel had done to her, made her pause for a moment.
"Father's right. I don't like it if Dad becomes the leader, I want to destroy this place" he said still bowed unmoved.
"Say it again!" Niel snapped, I raised my palm holding Niel's hand that was about to slap Egil back.
"Egyl. Can you tell me who he is?" Tukasku release the grip on Niel's arm, I give my body a bow near him.
"Why did I tell you?"
"Because that Master is someone you know?" I said, Egil raised his head to look at me.
"As I thought," I said again, I lifted my body to my feet.
"Easy enough, the first time we came, Egil looked suspicious of me, he thought if I was your partner, it could be said if he wanted to know what exactly our purpose here was. I'm right, aren't I, Egil?"
"Secondly, when I said no, he was trying to work with me, by giving me a lot of information. And from the amount of information, only the gold mine and also the weakness of Niel is true... That's why, I discussed it that night to ascertain the truth. As you've often heard, even trees can talk, and you're lucky to hear us talk, so I can confirm that the gold mine exists."
"Thirdly, he once said that Egil made a lot of thieves in the market as his subordinates, and a bunch of people who attacked me first and tonight from the same group, he said, I found out about it when I saw the knife-handling carvings of those who attacked me and Aeneas!" As I turned my gaze to Aeneas, Aeneas walked over with one of his hands reaching into the inside of his bag.
"It's nee-chan, we got it straight from her room" he said, handing me a knife.
I thrust my palm into the knife that was in Eneas while the other side of my hand reached into the bag I was wearing. I raised the two knives towards Egil who was still silent.
"They have the same carvings, right? Carving a crocodile in the handle. And also, nii-chan... Give me the sword" I said, turning my eyes to Izumi, Izumi walked over with a sword I got from the villain who attacked us in the forest.
"The sword that my brother was holding, also had the same carving. Do you think you can trick me?" I looked back at Egil.
"If you think I'm gonna believe everything you're saying, then you're making a big mistake. Me, just trust my family... Other than them, I won't trust anyone too much" I told him.
"Where did you get that knife? How did you get it?"
"You're so stupid, do you remember when you came to pick up your dad in my room the other day? Lux picked you up, didn't she? And Lux also took the knife from the table in your room... He took the knife flying and threw it in the grass in front of your room, of course the next day, My sister Aeneas picked it up," I smiled at him.
"Say Egil, what does the key to the dungeon have to do with this?" Reveal me while I cross my arms over my chest.
"Tell me! I'm gonna assume it never happened, and I'm gonna make sure... I'll help you" I said, long ago looking at me with reddened eyes.
"Egil," said Niel crouched in front of his son.
"I don't know what caused you to dislike me leading this place..."
"But you must have heard, right? If your father built this place, because my kingdom was betrayed by someone. Please, don't make the same injury to your father," he said again as he directed his palms to touch Egil's cheeks.
"Dad... Forgive Egil," his cries slipped.
"Egil had to do it. The uncle said, if he was going to kill Dad... He also said, will destroy this place."
"I don't want to lose my father or my friends. So then... So," he said again a hug in Niel's arms.
"It's okay, your dad will be fine. Everything will be fine, so tell your father everything" Niel patted his son on the back.
"The uncle said, if he asked me to be a spy, so as not to get caught by you. Because if he gets caught... The king will burn this place down."
"How can he burn our territory. You were lied to by him" said Niel again to Egil.
"No Dad, you didn't see him... I saw it for myself, the red-eyed black monster behind him. I saw it," Egil said as he clasped the clothes Niel was wearing.
