HE'S NOT HUMAN
CHAPTER 35 (Bag. 1)
“Your Majesty, I will take a hundred troops from Underworld.” Agnor proposed her idea.
“Your Majesty, we must prove that Argus was the mastermind of the death of the late King Lexander. That way, the people can side with you.” Levi is back.
While Bella who stood beside Arro could feel nervousness mixed with anger in her husband's heart. He hopes to do something for Arro. Adena, Arzeus and Jasmine stood in the corner of the room. They are nervous about what will happen.
Arro struggled with his own thoughts. He knew it was very difficult to find evidence of Argus betrayal and rebellion.
“Your Majesty, I have a plan to convince the people that Argus is the cause of all the chaos in the Main Kingdom.” Agnor seemed confident in her words.
“What's your plan?” Arro finally paid attention to Agnor.
“Abercio, Your Highness.”
Arro scrunched his forehead. “Abercio?” Arro doesn't understand.
“Damian!” exciting Agnor.
Damian immediately came forward and told the truth. “Yang Mulia. Against Abercio in the Underworld. We didn't kill him. We locked him down there. We think maybe one day, he'll be useful. Even though we tortured him so severely. But he also didn't want to say anything. He chose to cut his own tongue.”
“So, she's alive?” arro asked in surprise, who was nodding back by Agnor and Damian.
Arro now understands the plan they mean.
Levi is approaching. “Argus forces are already in front of the Main Royal Palace. They have also gathered the royal council and the people there.”
Arro stood up from his seat with wide eyes. “APA?!”
“They ... will hold the inauguration of the King's title for him.”
No one could describe how shocked they were to hear the sudden news. Arro is the true descendant of the King. He won't let Argus take his throne. Argus would only be a disaster for the Upper World.
Arro no longer spoke. He immediately headed out of that space and flew towards the Vasileion Imperial Main Palace. The palace he had left behind.
...----------------...
Arro could see from above, the group of Argus troops and people had become one in the courtyard of the vast royal palace. Then there is Argus and the five royal council members who seem to have been allies of Argus.
The palace had an entrance with dozens of steps. The people had gathered under the steps to witness Argus' coronation to become King.
As Arro descends and lands his feet not far from Argus, Bella and all who follow Arro also make landfall behind Arro.
The people were very surprised to see the crown prince there. Since the death of his father and mother. Arro almost never set foot into the Main Palace. It's all because of Argus.
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?” Arro was angry to see a councilman had almost attached the crown his father used to wear.
The royal council flinched, then chose to retreat when Argus had already stood up from his knees.
“Where is your manners to your uncle, Arro?!” Argus was not surprised by Arro's presence.
“I am a descendant of King Lexander Kyrillos. I'm the one who has the right to replace my father.”
“Shut! You can't be a king, your pragma is half human. Not a pure angel.” Argus did not speak to Arro. He deliberately shouted for all the people present to listen to the facts.
Arro could hear the whispers of his people. They looked down at Arro. Especially with all the scornful looks they gave.
Bella who could not bear to see her husband in disdain because of him. Choose to go forward to defend Arro. “I am not a descendant of pure angels. But, I ... never killed my own brother for the throne.”
Bella's words managed to get Argus to attract her attention. Argus clenched his fingers while looking furiously at Bella. “Nona, you have no proof for that,” furious Argus.
The people became boisterous as they were confused by the conversation that was happening in front of them.
“DAMIAN!” agnor shouted to Damian who was not there.
Not long after, Damian and Arzeus show up. But what shocked Argus and all the people was Abercio's presence. His body was weakened, his hands were tied with ropes from the Underworld. Locking the power of prisoners. Moreover, Abercio's body had many wounds and blood everywhere.
Argus. He did not expect Abercio to be alive.
“I am Arzeus. People of the Kingdom of Doria. I can read the thoughts and memories of a person.” Arzeus spoke loudly, hoping the people could hear his voice.
Arzeus who felt humiliated, immediately held Abercio's head. He paid no heed to the sound of Abercio's agonizing cry. Arzeus went around in all Abercio's thoughts. “Argus, how did you get that poison?” Arzeus spoke the sentence without opening his eyes and in the manner of speech Abercio used to do.
Argus widened his eyes, of course he knew that sentence was a sentence that Abercio had asked after knowing Argus' plan to kill the king.
“You don't need to know, this is the only way to finish off Lexander. Especially after his son lost his pragma,” said Arzeus again. After Arzeus fell silent, he seemed to be choosing which scene he would reveal again.
Bella can feel hold Arro strengthened. Bella also returned the tight grip, strengthening Arro with what she was about to hear.
“Hahaha, I know where Arro hid his mother. How about a little fun before killing him.”
Bella shut her mouth in surprise. Right, Arro's mother was also killed. Bella's heart grimaced at the disgusting remark.
“Don't touch me, biadap! … Arro will avenge you. Arro is the heir to the throne actually.” Arzeus shed his tears, he could see the heartbreaking scene there.
“Sweetie, you won't see your son die .. like his father and mother died in my hands.”
“You won't be able to kill him. He has the blood of the King.” Arzeus imitated Arro's mother's words with tears. Arzeus grimaced a little at the aftermath.
Before Arzeus opened his eyes and ended that terrifying scene. He's waiting for something. Something in the memory looked very dark. There, he saw. Arzeus opened his eyes and shouted at Argus.
“YOU ARE ALLIED WITH THE KING OF DARKNESS!” accuse Arzeus of guts. The people were surprised, but did not believe Arzeus' words.
Arzeus turned towards Arro. “Your Majesty, the left arm is a sign of darkness. Ling— shaped sign"
“DIAM!” Argus instantly cast his power to silence Arzeus. Arzeus was thrown away receiving the attack. He coughed up blood, until he didn't move anymore.
Adena who saw him screamed hysterically but he could not make his voice. He immediately ran toward Arzeus' body. Arzeus could still open his eyes weakly. “Finally, I will meet my wife and son,” he said, then close his eyes tightly. His breathing weakened until it disappeared without blowing anymore.
Adena hugged Arzeus' body. It is like losing his partner. He and Arzeus share a destiny. They both lost their pragma. Adena was left alone again.
Jasmine immediately ran up to Adena and Arzeus' body. Jasmine's tears fell down, she then looked towards Arro and shook her head weakly.
“You just revealed yourself!” yelled Arro loudly. Then cast a small force to reveal the royal robe he was wearing. Right, on Argus' left arm is a black circle with a star symbol in the middle. All angels know the meaning of the symbol.
Argus soon realized, the people were watching him. They were surprised by what Argus did and what Arro revealed.
“Agnor! The levi! whatever happens, protect the people,” whispered Arro.
“We understand, Your Grace.”
“YOU DON'T DESERVE TO BE KING.” One of the people shouted from down there pointing at Argus who was standing angrily.
“YOU SHOULD BE DEAD!”
“YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE EXILED, NOT THE CROWN PRINCE.”
The voice of the people's cries continued to corner Argus. Argus already knew his plan was failing. Immediately ordered his mingled troops to start attacking.
“Now!” arro's orders to Agnor and Levi.
Levi mobilized his army of less than a hundred to repulse the Argus army. Separate them from the people.
Adena and Jasmine stared at the nanar into Arzeus' body which began to disappear leaving a light that began to extinguish. While Damian had burned Abercio's body to the end, then went down to help Levi and his troops.
Agnor closed her eyes, a red circle of fire appeared before her. “Come out!”
One by one the troops from within the circle came out, the troops that Agnor summoned from the Underworld. Now they are almost equal to the Argus army.
After that, Agnor then hit her stick hard to the ground. Glass fibers started to stretch out in front of there. All the people are in that circle. Agnor ordered the people to follow her. Hundreds of people are now walking half-run. Avoid what will happen.
Argus will wrathfully attack the glass fibers made by Argus. He does not need a people who do not take his side. The energy released by Argus is thick green and large. Of course, it was not worth the protective power there.
Seeing that, Arro quickly cast his power, to crash into Argus power. The sound of a huge explosion sounded as the two forces clashed against each other.
Argus looked furiously at Arro and Bella who were standing beside him. Argus grinning. “How about a little fun before killing them,” muttered Argus with something in itself. Something that has always accompanied Argus ever since he got the mark on his left arm.
