Hello Brothers: The Prince of Twins
Chapter 82 The King's Guest

The stories are now coming true, of sun-protected splendor to the royals' dresses sweeping the floor. When he first met Tianna he thought Tianna was just an ordinary vampire, but after he changed his appearance Ima could see the elegance of a real noble daughter.

He walked down the stairs with twinkling eyes still staring in admiration at the palace, Tianna as a guide led them into a large dining room.

"Wow." Ima was increasingly amazed to see the amount of food presented at the long table.

"Please" Tianna said hinting to sit down.

All of those foods are common in human consumption, it was enough to make Kyra a little surprised because she thought it would be served raw food and blood.

"I didn't know your taste so I told Koki to cook everything" said Keenan, who was sitting in his chair.

"Everything looks good" said Ima who had been tempted.

"Then do not hesitate, please eat" he said with a smile.

Even so, Ima still waited for the host to raise his glass first, with a glass of water they began to eat. Ima unhesitatingly ate whatever was presented, in contrast to Kyra who was still looking around.

"Watch the food, all this is safe for you to eat" whispered Ima who was aware of Kyra's fear.

"You sure?"

"I'm also still half human" Ima replied convincingly.

Because the speech finally Kyra wanted to try it, beyond expectations apparently the food was quite good.

"We are also used to eating human food, especially as an occasional King I have to invite witch leaders so our Chef is used to making this banquet" Keenan said.

"It's like eating in an expensive restaurant, maybe even more than that" said Ima.

Keenan smiled happily to see his guests satisfied, the meal was closed with a fresh blood.

"Ah.. this is really delicious" said Ima praised.

"We have the best quality of blood" said Keenan who made Ima speechless.

Of course as a king he had everything, even for a glass of blood of the highest quality he could get easily unlike Ima who had to hunt.

Finished eating Keenan was intending to show them the palace, but Kyra had no desire for it.

"I've prepared a new room for you, the waiter will take you" Keenan said.

Being around vampires is certainly not fun for Kyra even if she is treated well, it feels like a food reward before the death penalty.

Only Ima is still eager to explore, he follows where Keenan steps while chatting.

"Every time I dream of living in a magnificent palace like this, even if only once in my lifetime I still want to feel it. Now my feet have stood here, all thanks to your kindness" Ima said.

"We have the same dream, want to live a quiet and acknowledged life. If everything goes well, you'll even meet Anna"

"I hope it becomes a reality" he said.

"Your Majesty, the meeting will soon begin in the hope that you will attend" said a soldier.

"Ah looks like this tour should end here" Keenan said.

Ima quite understood as the King of course Keenan was very busy, after the departure of Keenan a servant came to take him to the room.

There Kyra looks restless by continuing to squeeze her hands, with a pale face she walks up to Ima to talk.

"We have to figure out a way to get out of here"

"Do not do anything in vain" said Ima with a more interested view on the design of the room.

"What do you mean? don't you want to get out of here?" ask Kyra in a high tone.

"How much power do you have against those soldiers? think carefully about the risks you'll take"

"But we're gonna get here?"

"Until Anna comes along, as long as whatever it is the most important thing is that they treat us well" he replied.

"You enjoyed the food very much, you were also very enthusiastic about seeing the palace. From the beginning you wanted all this" Kyra accused cynically.

Prang

Aaaa....

With just one hand Ima brushed off the vase until it fell and shattered on the floor, her expression was so cold with a sharp gaze fixed on Kyra.

"What if I enjoy all this? you who live in peace without having to move house for your safety will never understand, if you want to run away then do it yourself. I don't want to guarantee your safety that can't even keep his own words" Ima said.

Kyra was silent about the remark, aware that she was too weak and reckless. In this situation it would be more appropriate to think with a cool head, then take action in the right time.

With a sour face Ima sat on the edge of the mattress, thinking of finding a safe way out.

He was happy to live there but that does not mean he wants to stay forever, he also thinks of Agler and Chad who are definitely worried now.

Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok

The knock on the door made them aghast, carefully Ima stepped up and slowly opened the door. He was quite surprised to see Ballard standing there, from his face he looked anxious.

"Ah right my guess" said Ballard.

"What are you doing here?" ask Ima surprised.

Ballard then entered first after making sure it was safe, his eyes fixed on Ima who was looking at him in wonder.

"How come you're here?" ask Ballard.

"That's.they kidnapped my friend, when I tried to save her I was dragged along" Ima replied.

As he walked following Tianna into the dining room Ballard accidentally saw him, Ima's familiar face certainly made him curious to remember.

"Agler must be worried if he finds out you were kidnapped by him" Ballard said.

"Right, I was thinking about it"

"I'll tell Agler you're here"

"Master! please tell brother that I am fine, the King treats me as his guest so there is nothing to worry about. Please prevent him if you want to save me, for now it will be in vain" pinta Ima.

Ballard was quite surprised to hear that, he did not think that a girl like Ima could be so calm in dealing with problems.

"What the King wants is just to meet Anna, as long as we can think carefully about how to get out of here without causing trouble and surviving"

"It looks like the King has had a lot of conversations with you" Ballard commented.

"He's just an ambitious guy, we have one idol in common so I understand him quite well" Ima replied.

Ballard nodded in understanding, making sure that Ima was okay and promised to deliver her message to Agler.

A letter that arrived that morning made all the residents of the old castle frenzied, screams to sobbing triggered a debate that led to nonsense.

Many times Jack was about to leave and many times also Shigima stopped him, in the end they just remained silent in regret.

"What should we do?" violet asked with empty eyes.

"I'm going to sneak into the palace to make sure Blue is in shape, but I can't take him home" Hans said.

"You can do that why don't you save Blue?" violet asked in a high tone.

"Keenan is not a vampire that can be defeated just like that, he can even kill a herd of vampanences alone."

Among them was Hans who knew Keenan the most, which is why Jack entrusted this matter to him after Shigima's persuasion.

"We better not act rashly, I don't want any more casualties in an event like this" Shigima said.

Jack and Ryu are shocked at the scene because they are reminded of Ken's sad death, if they are not rash in saving Anna maybe Ken is still there.

"I've sent a letter to the Elves, I hope he can help us" Hans said.

"Hopefully" said Jack.

While waiting for the new sunset Ballard goes to see Agler, before he also comes to see Chad but only asks to come with him to meet Agler.

"I brought a message from Ima" he said.

"What's? do you know where Ima is?" ask Chad quickly.

"Listen carefully to the message I'm carrying and remember to stay calm" he said.

Chad and Agler nodded their heads but Ballard was silent for a while just to make sure they were ready with the news he brought.

"Keenan has a new plan to attract Anna's attention, namely by kidnapping members of the Hermes family. At this time a girl named Kyra has been kidnapped and unfortunately Ima who intends to help in the kidnapping as well"

"What's? how come?" ask Agler.

"I don't know what the real events are, but for now Ima is in the palace. As for his own circumstances he was perfectly fine, Keenan treated him as a guest of honor so you don't have to worry too much"

"What is the message from Ima?" ask Chad.

"He asked not to act rashly, it was more to show you" he replied, pointing at Agler.

"He will stay there until Anna actually comes, he also guarantees Kyra's safety" he continued.

There was a faint smile on Chad's face considering that the message was very typical with Ima, the brave stubborn girl. If Ima had said so it means that he had thought everything carefully, even so he still wanted to go to make sure.

Seeing the look on the faces of his two grandchildren who were still anxious made Ballard think to reach their hearts.

"I know you're very worried, if you want I can help you meet him" he said, which made the twins smile.

"But remember! you can only meet him and leave, as Ima said if he ran away then the problem is getting worse" he warned.

Agler and Chad nodded in understanding, so they left immediately. Guided by Ballard they take a shortcut so they can quickly arrive, when their feet have stepped on the territory of the vampire Ballard again reminded not to be rash.

He gave instructions to enter through the window at the side of the palace while he would enter through the front door as usual, with just one jump they could pass through the window.

Hiding behind the darkness they waited until Ballard picked them up, then with them walked back.

When there are soldiers passing by quickly they hide while Ballard is in charge of distracting.

"You go on and turn left, you'll find a room and wait there for a while. I'll tell Ima first if you come so she can be ready" Ballard said.

"We understand" Chad said.

They parted ways, Ballard took another path while they took steps as directed.

The corridor was quiet enough that they could freely walk, late at the intersection after turning left easily they found the room in question.

Slowly Chad opened the door, his crackling voice was noisy enough to make them a little afraid of being discovered. It took only a few seconds for Chad to make sure the room was indeed empty before it finally entered.

Once the door is back in the lid of flying dust that makes Chad's nose quite itchy, he who does not like dirty is certainly quite disturbed because of it.

Agler looked around the room, with dust stuck here and there the room was more suitable to be called a barn than a room even though there was a bed.

Suddenly a quick footstep made their eyes watch the door, before it opened quickly they hid behind the darkness.

A man dressed in all black walked in and immediately stuck his body beside the door, watching for another voice that was outside.

Although the room was quite dark but Chad was able to see the man's face quite well, his heart that had been able to calm down had suddenly burned to make him come out of hiding.

Syuut...

Trunks

Ah..

Hans who has been trained can certainly feel the presence of Chad despite coming suddenly, he reflexively threw a dagger but Chad can fend it off easily.

"What are you doing here?" ask Chad.

"You." call Hans to remember the face he saw.

He remembers that it was Chad who came home to visit Kyra even though the one who came was Agler.

"I'm going to see Kyra" she replied.

"You know him?" ask Agler who suddenly came out.

Seeing the same faces made Hans quite surprised, he did not expect Chad to have such a similar twin.

"He's Hans Hermes, the man who kidnapped and harassed my cousin" Chad's accusation holds anger.

"What?" ask Agler in shock.

"That's not true, I've never done such a thing" said Hans, who did not take the allegations for granted.

"That's right! you easily forget that, if grandma hadn't acted fast you would have done even crazier things."

Hans was only pensively astonished until he remembered that some time ago he had saved a girl who saw his fight with vampires, he said, due to a misunderstanding, Joyi accuses him of being the mastermind behind the kidnapping, and even Shigima and Jack have alluded to this.

"You misunderstood me, I didn't do that to your cousin" Hans defended himself.

"No thief claims to have stolen" Chad said.

He had harbored too long hatred for Hans for the case of Alisya, now when Hans was right in front of him with a plain face of course it invites his anger.

Not allowing Hans to escape Chad to launch a single attack.

Buk.
