Queen Rushi
Chapter 39 The phrase
Bugh!
Mozaru was dragged along violently and abandoned by the workers. He rose with all his might and opened the back door. However, he was shocked when he saw Yagyu already standing in front of him. His angry feelings again peaked, given the defeat of the bull that made him experience all this.
‘’Why did you come here? To laugh at myself?’’ mozaru asked with a heavy voice.
Yagyu traversed Mozaru's body from bottom to top. Compared to his excellent clothes, Mozaru's appearance was completely chaotic. His clothes were like scavengers, probably because he was so often beaten and whipped.
The deg!
Mozaru glared while bluffing his teeth while looking at the pity gaze of Yagyu. ‘’Stop looking at me like that!’’
He threw a punch, but he had not yet reached Yagyu, his body falling weak. Luckily, Yagyu caught it so he didn't fall.
‘’Leave! I don't need your mercy!’’ mozaru is so weak.
‘’Haa, don't be stubborn. Just stand up you can not afford,’’ said Yagyu memapah Mozaru to the surrounding log, which has been cut down to sit.
Yagyu sat on a wooden block not far from the trunk. ‘’What happened? Why are you like this?’’
Mozaru was silent and had no intention of answering. Yagyu who was happy was never waiting, only let out a long sigh.
Yagyu took a breath. ‘’I am a bull race, but my strength does not describe a bull. I was very weak despite continuing to do the exercises. I never thought about the outdoors, because I just kept being in the house. I always received affection, but all that changed since the bull race exiled me to the fighting house. Yes, they dumped me for being weak. During my time at home fighting, I never got a decent meal like at home.’’
Mozaru just silently listened while staring at the ground.
‘’You know, we fought three times and I always lost. At the time, I was really ashamed of myself. I thought, the bull race made the right decision by dumping me. The first minute of the third round, I resigned and chose to wait for my death. No matter how hard I tried, there was no result. Until finally His Majesty bet on me. It was the first time in 17 years that someone wanted to bet on me,’’, Yagyu said.
At that time, Queen Rushi threw her shawl at me, and right then and there for the first time, something made me fall to the ground, Mozaru said in his heart.
‘’If it wasn't Your Majesty, maybe that day I'd be dead from blood loss. You will win as usual. But His Majesty gave me a chance once again, which is why I owe him my life,’’ Yagyu said.
If Queen Rushi had not come that day, I might not have been defeated like this. The palace also does not need to dump me, nor does Princess Rukaia. All this time, people knew me and respected me as a warrior. But everything disappeared in an instant just because of the intervention of Queen Rushi, Mozaru said in his heart.
His hands clenched while bluffing his teeth. ‘’If it wasn't for losing to you, I wouldn't have to go through any of this. Princess Rukaia would also not throw me away and even beat me, until it made me remember this pain. Right now I don't want to be angry. Go away, before I really hit you.’’
Yagyu looked at Mozaru who was standing up and went back inside. He felt a little guilty, if what Mozaru said was true.
With Queen Rushi taking him out, Mozaru pays for his defeat and takes his place at the fighting house and receives harsh treatment, which he has never felt before.
