I Became the Prisoner of the Tyrant
Chapter 51 Explains to Darren
***
On the other hand, Derrick searched for Leticia's whereabouts, but his sister was nowhere to be seen.
I was sure they were here, but why don't they exist now?
Such was Derrick who was confused looking for the whereabouts of his sister and the tyrant King. He drowned here and there but could not find his sister.
" Sir Derrick, let's eat with us. You must be tired" said Daniel, offering Derrick grapes kindly
" You saw them here too, right? then why did they disappear all of a sudden?" derrick asked confused
" You don't know how great my King is, you won't find him even if he's near you" Daniel said as he ate wine with Harold and the coachman.
" Sir Derrick, let's just eat while we wait. You don't have to worry, I'm sure that the princess, I mean the lady will be fine" said Harold calmly.
" You're eating too, Harold?" ask Derrick not to believe it
" I'm hungry" replied Harold with his innocent face
" Right said this master, your Majesty the King will not do anything of the sort to Miss Leticia. When they're done talking, they'll come back " said Daniel casually
" Right right.how could the noble one hurt the one who made him into a slave of love like that" said the coachman justifying.
Derrick seemed to be thinking about something serious, he daydreamed. Daniel and the two who were eating the wine, could see that Derrick still looked anxious at Leticia.
" How can I be calm, if my brother is with my enemy. What if he hurt my sister "murmed Derrick anxiously while clenching his hand
" It won't happen, I assure you, Sir Derrick. Your Majesty will not hurt the missus" Daniel said
" Why are you so sure of your King? he didn't even hesitate to slaughter all my family overnight. Not just my family, but maybe many others are just as lucky as me "asked Derrick in surprise
" if so, I don't deny it. But, believe me he won't hurt the lady. Because his majesty loves missus so much ", said Daniel, trying to convince Derrick
" Love? can someone like him love someone? people who only know how to kill can fall in love? haa... I doubt even, does he have a heart?" ask Derrick emotion
" It seems that sir Derrick hates the noble, the noble lady. But, I as a noble right hand should raise the value of both the noble ones in the eyes of sir Derrick and the people. The noble image, must be transformed into a good "inner Daniel is concerned
" Of course your Majesty has a heart, he is human! the proof is that noble can love someone. And his majesty also let sir Derrick and the lady stay alive until now. What do you think is the reason? you know for yourself that the noble has principles in war, even everyone knows that. If his Majesty the King is a tyrant who will not spare a single person from the land he colonized for life. Then why would your majesty keep Sir Derrick and Miss Leticia alive? " ask Daniel seriously
" May this help your Majesty. Open the mind of this man, that his majesty may also change "inwardly Daniel hoped
This time it was Derrick's turn to run out of words, he could not answer Daniel's relaxed but sharp and piercing question. Derrick seemed to think, again he daydreamed.
Come to think of it, this guy has his right. He was a tyrant who would not spare a single person from his colonized kingdom. If it's true that it's because of her interest in Leticia, then she's been liking Leticia since then, but since when? he should have hated us, but he let us live well. While it's true that she likes Tisha, I can't let Tisha be with a dangerous man like her.
A few minutes later, Leticia and Alexander showed their noses to 4 men waiting for their return.
" Tisha, where have you been? why so long?" ask Derrick firmly
" We were there, near the tree, "plain Leticia replied
" I didn't see you there at all, ah let's go home" Derrick's voice sounded annoyed
" i thought, your majesty must have used her magic so as not to look "inner Daniel had guessed
" I went ya Lex " whispered Leticia to Alexander. The man was instantly stunned and his face flushed red upon hearing the woman's sweet voice calling out his name.
" I. yes chia." Alexander replied nervously
Daniel and the coachman looked surprised by Alexander's attitude that looked like a tame child in front of Leticia. Just hearing the woman speak had already made the Demon Lord on the battlefield drunk to the heart he made.
" God, is that our King's majesty?" whispered the coachman to Daniel.
" Haa.. I don't believe it either, is he really our King? " chanted Daniel to the coachman.
" Maybe before the love of all men be foolish, without exception the noble himself "inner Daniel
Alexander sees the departure of Leticia, Derrick and Harold. Silently the girl turned her head back and smiled at Alexander. After Leticia and her brother had gone far away, Alexander's attitude changed, he was already sitting in his carriage.
" Yey ! why do you guys keep talking?! let's go back to the palace !" alexander said fiercely
" Geez, as soon as Miss Leticia leaves she goes back to being fierce "inner coachman
" Good noble one !" daniel and the coachman obeyed
" You guys are so long ! Hey ! want to die !" alexander was upset
" Yes, this is how the true King is.." Daniel was patient.
Alexander smiled to himself, apparently the man was happy and in love drunk. He also thought about the future with Leticia later.
***
Leticia, Derrick and Harold had already arrived in front of the palace road. They saw Darren as if he was waiting for someone anxiously.
The three of them paid their respects to the prince of the Ilios kingdom.
" Tisha.. I mean you guys from anywhere?" ask Darren worriedly
" Pardon us, your majesty, we leave without notice. We went out to eat together in a tavern not far from here" Derrick explained
" I think you guys went where." Darren said as he looked towards Leticia. However, the woman seemed to be ignoring him.
" What's wrong with him? why didn't he see me? did she misunderstand me and Miss Giselle?" inner Darren astonished

" Sir Derrick and lord Harold, the King calls you in his room" Moore said politely.
" I'll be there soon, Tisha you're coming with sister too" Derrick said
" Yes, sister " replied Leticia obediently
" Wait, I want to talk to Tisha !" exclaim Darren
" All right" said Derrick
" Your Majesty, I don't think there's anything I need to talk about with your majesty. And I also had to immediately prepare dinner in the kitchen" said Leticia rejecting the man
" Why are you suddenly talking formally to me? did I make a mistake? Tisha, let's talk first, shall we ?" darren said as he held Leticia's hand, he looked at the woman with hope
" actually I don't want to talk to her right now, but it seems like I have to sort this out and confirm everything" Leticia said
" Oh, your majesty, let's talk. But, it won't take long " said Leticia with a sigh
Darren looks happy and takes the woman to the labyrinth garden which became his private garden. A place no one knows but him.
" I've never seen this park before her, and like her this place is secluded "
" You're right, this is my private garden. Ever since I was a kid I used to play here secretly. No one knows this labyrinth garden but me and you "Darren smile
" What does it mean he just brought me here? me? " leticia's mind was shocked
Seen 2 swings in that secluded and beautiful garden. Leticia admired the beauty of the garden. Darren had Leticia sit on the swing, and the man knelt in front of her.
" What.. Your Majesty what are you doing?" ask Leticia in shock
" What's your attitude like this from hearing I'm getting engaged to another girl? " ask Darren
" That's right" replied Leticia.
" So you're jealous of me?" ask Darren happy
" Eh, why does he look happy? don't let her catch me wrong I mean "inner Leticia's shocked
" I thought you didn't want me to get engaged to him, did you? because you like me, right?" asked Darren while holding Leticia's hand
" Your Majesty misunderstood, that is only one of the reasons why I should be polite and formal towards you. But it's not because I like your majesty "

The statement from the woman made Darren surprised, what does the woman mean?
" You mean what? you don't like me? what's that supposed?" ask Darren
" I will affirm her this second as well, I don't like her noble more than friends" Leticia said clearly
" What?" Darren was stunned to hear it
" Your Majesty, did I say it less clearly? I don't like you, if I like you it's just as a friend, nothing more "
" I'm sorry, I had to deny your feelings. But, I realized that I only liked the psychopath tyrant "Leticia felt guilty
Darren paused for a moment, trying to guess what he heard from the woman's mouth. What he heard was wrong !
" I'm lacking what? why are you doing this to me? we haven't even dated yet and I haven't properly expressed my feelings for you ! how can you say you don't like me like this?!" darren said in disbelief, and he sounded disappointed
" But I don't like you, for me your majesty is just a good friend, not a man" Leticia replied trying to convince the man
" It must be because of brother right? did my sister say anything to you? is that why you're talking and acting like this?" darren asked as he looked at the woman sadly
" That's one of them, but I can't say "inner Leticia
" His Majesty the King did not say anything, this is because of myself. I reject you " said Leticia firmly
" i just found out that he's a stubborn person and "inner Leticia was astonished
" In that case, is this because of my engagement news?" ask Darren plain
" No ! I told you this because I don't like you ! " leticia began to get upset
" You're just making excuses to reject me, aren't you? you like me, but because you heard the engagement news you got angry and said like this "Darren can't believe it
" What? I've been having a hard time explaining at length my heart's intent, but he thinks I'm making excuses and he doesn't believe me? " inner Leticia was stunned
" You misunderstand me again, I'm not making excuses. It was purely my feeling to the noble "woman's voice was a little loud
" If I told you I didn't want to get engaged to that girl, wouldn't you be angry again?" ask Darren plain
" It's a noble affair, why should your majesty ask me? and. I've said I don't like your majesty" said Leticia as she stood up from her swing
Darren who was looking at Leticia, followed her standing as well. The man clasped Leticia's hand, insisting that Leticia turn him down because there was another woman he was betrothed to. Apparently behind his gentle demeanor, Darren is also stubborn and unyielding, he tries to persuade Leticia that the woman gives him the opportunity to try to approach her.
" I'll talk to my brother to cancel the engagement ! I'll tell him I really like you "
" That means you are violating the King's command ! you can't be so noble " said Leticia reminded
" Let it be so ! I'll fight for you "Darren full of faith
" But I don't like you noble, there's no point in you fighting for me !" leticia began to get upset
" Why the hell is he so stubborn?" inner Leticia
" In that case, I will tell my sister that I will only marry you" Darren said seriously and stubbornly
" What? married??! " Leticia was stunned
It turned out that the man did not understand at all what Leticia meant and misunderstood her intention.
" Yes, let's get married ! I'm willing to leave the palace and my status as prince, as long as you accept me and want to be with me" Darren said
" What noble has gone mad??!!" Leticia's shocked
Crazy, totally crazy. What say? married????! My long explanation is so considered what? why misunderstand this big?
" It can't be this noble. The reason I rejected your majesty is because I now have a lover !! I like that guy !" leticia shouted annoyed

The piercing words again stunned Darren. Will he misunderstand again this time? or understand what Leticia really said?
