Revenge Journey
Chapter 30's

"Laren, you are a very devoted child. You have helped the people of our kingdom to escape the deadly plague and have now been invited to the imperial court. This is a great honor for our palace." Said the king, stopping his steps

"Laren only wanted to help his father and the palace to get ahead, Laren had not done much for the kingdom, so the father did not praise Laren too much. During this time Laren was sick and had not been able to help his father, now Laren must repay the kindness that his father had given all this time."

"You don't humble yourself anymore, my son, you obviously have helped me a lot and this kingdom. The matter about you being sick earlier it was my fault."

"Daddy mean?" Laren asked while staring confusedly at the words of the king

"I've neglected you so much because I've lost the person I love the most, so you can be trapped in the woods and end up hurting your legs badly." Said the king with a sad face

The most loved one? Doesn't that mean empress? Mother of the original prince Laren. (Batin Laren)

"So... Does your father know all that?"

"Yes, I sent people to investigate what happened back then and it turned out that these were all the princes. But because of the words of the queen mother who said if they were too small to serve the punishment therefore I could not punish them according to royal rules. At that time my power wasn't as strong as it is now so I can't argue at all."

So like that, I once thought that the king was already indifferent to the real prince Laren because the empress was gone and ignored all that. But it was unexpected that he investigated this matter to the root. Wait for... Who is this queen mother? (Batin Laren)

"Suri's mother?" Ask Laren to the king

"Right, maybe you've forgotten the queen mother. You haven't seen him in years, right now he's in the southern kingdom helping your grandfather." Speak of the king

Grandpa? The queen mother? Why don't I have any memory of that? (Batin Laren curious)

"Alright then, in three days you will go to the imperial palace. Prepare what you're going to bring Laren."

"Okay, father, then Laren permits the exit." Said Laren while bowing

"Hmm go."

I had to ask Lacey all this, not knowing if Lacey was back or not, hopefully I could meet her. (Batin Laren)

Laren also stepped towards his residence in the main palace, while on the way Laren met the prince of Stellan who was followed by several guards behind him.

"Laren, wait a minute." Call prince Stellan

"What's up, brother?" Laren said as he approached Prince Stellan

"I want to talk to you with four eyes." Prince Stellan

"Sorry before the prince, but you must immediately return to the prince's palace and return to your residence in accordance with the punishment of the king a few days ago." Said one of the bodyguards following Prince Stellan

"It's okay, bodyguard, we won't be long. After that Prince Stellan could return to his residence. You can leave us." Laren

"Then, our prince excuse me." Said the bodyguard then left and was followed by the other bodyguards

"Let's talk there brother." Said Laren as he stepped towards a seat in the park

"Hmm okay." Reply prince Stellan while following Laren

"Laren, it looks like you already know what I want to talk about." Prince Stellan said as he sat next to Laren

"Sister, just get to the point, what do you want to say?" Said Laren while looking towards the bright blue sky

I'm guessing Prince Stellan is gonna talk about the hit man. (Batin Laren)

"Well I will not be stale anymore, now answer my question why are you accusing me of being the one who sent the assassin? What's the reason you think that way?" Prince Stellan said straight to the point

Well, according to my estimation. (Batin Laren)

"First, because I told everyone who knew about the hit man to shut up and not tell anyone. Second, because I only told this to my father and I'm sure father still hasn't told anyone this matter." Laren said without looking at Prince Stellan

"Hmm so it's like that, do you really mean it?" Prince Stellan said as he looked at Laren

Am I thinking too far about this? Does Laren think I sent the hit man just for some reason? (Inst prince Stellan)

"Of course." Laren turned his head towards Prince Stellan

Does he really believe this? It's easy to fool him haha. (Laren satin with a faint smile)

"Why does my sister not believe what I say? Is it really that big brother... Sending those hit men?" Ask Laren

"T-of course not... There's no way I'm gonna send a hit man to hurt my own sister." Prince Stellan said with a little brick

"So, do you know? Before I went to my father's birthday some time ago I had a dream that I was taken by three people and then threw myself into a pond in the prince's palace." Laren said as he glanced towards Prince Stellan

"W-what? Did ya? How could you dream like that?"

It was fortunate that Abercio's brother had already changed Laren's memory of the incident using his cultivation, otherwise he could have complained to the father. (Inner prince Stellan with a long sigh)

You must think if my memory has been changed by one of you, just relax anyway I've reciprocated your actions for the incident. (Batin Laren with a small smile)

"I don't know either."

"Have not thought about it again it was just a dream, everything can be in your dream Laren."

You're advising me like you're a good brother, but who knows if you've wanted to get rid of me all along. (Batin Laren gazing at Prince Stellan)

"Hm. Alright then since there is nothing we are talking about anymore I want to leave because I have to arrange the time and also prepare the items I want to bring to go to the imperial palace." Said Laren while standing up
