Fake Princess
DXV Chapter
I walked following Haruki who was carrying my bag on his shoulder, he stopped his steps, turned his head around before opening the door of the room he had previously slept with the others. Haruki opened the door, more precisely, lifting the door that had been detached from its hinges then shifted it slightly to the side so that we could both go through it.
My legs stopped as my eyes fell on Tsutomu, who was laying a dark cloth on the floor. Tsutomu's hands moved, lifting one by one the bald male body parts we caught earlier. First Tsutomu put the tip of the toe until the man's hanky, then Tsutomu grabbed a piece of palm near the piece of foot earlier, and then Tsutomu grabbed a piece of palm, and so on until the last he put a head piece whose face was already shapeless by a gaping wound.
I turned to the side, looking at Eneas and also Ryuzaki who had walked in with a few bags on their shoulders. “Where is Izumi?” haruki asked which made me look at her.
Haruki gave my bag to Tsubaru who was standing before him, “Prince, cleaning his body,” Tsubaru replied as she pointed towards the bathroom that had no doors anymore.
__________________.
I still can't believe what happened before, especially how calm the vice-captains to carry out Haruki's orders. Before leaving, they completely tidied up the place so that not a single drop of blood could be found there.In fact, Tsutomu and Tatsuya, too, take the pieces of the criminals' bodies to the bathroom for them to wash before they store them in the cloth parcels that are behind their horses now.
The footsteps of our horses stopped as the Knights guarding the border stepped forward with spears in each of their hands. “Before leaving, we have to check all the items you brought,” that is how the words that one of them said to Tatsuya.
Tatsuya glanced towards the back, precisely towards Yuki who was riding slightly in front of me. Yuki brought his horse forward near those Knights, “he brought nothing, just check on me,” Yuki said to the Knights standing near Tatsuya's horse.
“You will get your turn,” replied the Knight as he grabbed the bag forcibly in Tatsuya's hand.
The horse that Yuki was riding moved closer and closer to the Knight, I don't know what happened .. Yuki's hand moved quickly to pat one of the body parts of the man. The man rebukes her when Yuki says that she just wants to pat the flies on her body. Not sure what happened again, not long after the man grabbed Tatsuya's bag, he immediately collapsed forward, his body slightly leaning against the horse Tatsuya was riding on.
His comrades who were standing around the gate, walked forward approaching him. One of them held the body of the man, while the other raised the spear in their hands towards us followed by a threatening tone that also came out of them. Before long, the knight who had collapsed earlier started to look strange, he started to laugh loudly by himself.He even ran away leaving his friend approaching the gate and knocked on the gate with his palm repeatedly.
Did he have hallucinations?
Is Yuki, a poison master just like Eneas? That's why, you asked him to look after Eneas?
I glanced at Eneas as Yuki jumped down from the top of his horse. “Daughter, cover your mouth and nose using this,” I glanced to the left when Tsubaru had been riding beside me while pointing a flower-patterned handkerchief at me.
I grabbed the handkerchief and put it on my lips with my nose. My eyes turned back to all those who had closed their noses just as Eneas did, Yuki walked forward … He continued forward and continued forward while reaching into the small bag he was carrying. Yuki clasped the small piece of cloth in his hand, he threw the piece of cloth earlier into the face of the enemy Knight who ran over to him.
“The piece of cloth contains powder from poisonous mushrooms, once you inhale it .. You will act foolishly like the previous Knights. So make sure not to inhale it, Sachi,” I slightly glanced into the corner of the eye when Lux's whisper suddenly touched the ear.
“They will kill themselves without the need for us to dirty our hands, or maybe they will kill each other .. That's the poison we just made, as we tested it on the intruders … Those who initially laughed like the Knights, would gradually scream hysterically, as if they were met with something they feared, they tried to escape but were failing … They end up killing themselves. A very amazing poison, isn't it?”
“How can you make it?” I whispered again by tightly grasping the bridle I was holding.
“Yuki is reliable, she has traveled the world.. She understands a lot of poisons from many poisons that come from the intricacies of other Kingdoms. With his knowledge, and the ability of both of us .. What we can't make,” Lux continued in a whisper.
_______________.
I took a deep breath by holding back my horse's harness. I occasionally glanced at the rows of trees around us. The vice-captains opened the gate when all the enemy Knights were under hallucinations of the poison Yuki gave them.
When Izumi asked, why not just kill them all? Tatsuya answered, if the poison has all day to be able to react perfectly. That said, it's the perfect poison, if you want to wash your hands of the evil you've done.
I pulled my horse's harness when the others stopped their horses. We stopped not without cause.A swarm of lions blocked our way. My body was stunned when Tatsuya threw the bundle containing the pieces of the body of the criminal we had previously killed towards the lion horde.
“Sachi,” whispered a slow-sounding Lux.
“I know, I was feeling exactly where he is,” I whispered back while moving my horse near Ryuzaki.
“Ryu, you feel it, don't you?”
Ryuzaki glanced at me, “do you want me to catch him?” Ryuzaki asked back while still looking at me.
I nodded slowly before Ryuzaki closed his eyes, “wait any minute. I, was spreading my thorny roots throughout the forest. They are not just one, so it takes time to figure out where they are rather,” Ryuzaki replied with his eyes closed.
“Do you need help?”
“You can't control the plants, so leave everything to me.”
“But I can feel them all very clearly. Kou can feel the slightest magic, just .. Follow the instructions I give,” connect me back by staring at the horde of lions that are devouring five packs of cloth containing body pieces in front of them.
