Revenge Journey
Chapter 80's

What exactly is Rayden hiding? Are there any traps underground that would hit me if I stepped on the ground? (Batin Laren asked)

No prince, don't let you step on anything other than the leaves I prepared. Otherwise, even if I act maybe you will still be seriously injured. (Batin Rayden while continuing to observe the legs of Laren who stepped on the leaves one by one)

After a while, the leaves put down by Rayden were exhausted and Laren completed the challenge from Rayden safely.

Huft, it's a good thing that the prince can complete the challenge from me. (Inner Rayden with a sigh of relief)

"Well your prince has completed the challenge I have given, I will do whatever request from prince Laren." Rayden said after Laren completed the challenge from him.

"Hmm well, I'll think about this first. If there's something I want then I'll tell you." Reply Laren.

"Good prince."

They immediately returned to the kingdom and after a while of travel, they finally arrived at the prince's palace.

When they returned, the other princes were gathered in the garden and looked directly at Laren as Laren entered the palace.

What do these princes do? (Batin Laren asked)

Laren paid no heed to the princes and rushed straight to his own residence.

As he was about to enter his residence, one of the guards called Laren.

"Prince Laren,"

"Hmm what's up?"

"The noble king invited all the princes to go to Yun's palace tonight as well." Said the guard.

"Tonight as well? Wh-wh-what for? Why so suddenly?" Ask Laren curiously.

"Right prince, it was because the queen mother came to Yun kingdom and earlier the emperor lowered his decree to elevate Yun kingdom into an empire." The guard explained.

"Alright, I understand I'll be ready." Reply Laren while nodding slowly.

After that the guard left and Laren entered his residence followed by Rayden behind him.

The queen mother? Who her? (Batin Laren)

"Rayden, do you know who this queen mother is?" Ask Laren to Rayden.

"The queen mother was the real mother of the king, she had been in his kingdom for a long time and for a few years she had very rarely come to the kingdom of Yun. I don't know why he came here today." Rayden began to explain.

"Hmm so that's how it is, you get ready later tonight we're going to Yun kingdom."

"Okay prince, I'm sorry." Said Rayden who was then nodded by Laren.

Rayden disappeared after getting permission from Laren to leave and Laren locked the door.

Laren took down Xiao Ying who had been in his arms since then and let her walk the path in her room.

"Lacey," Call Laren on arrival.

"Yes, sir, I'm here." Reply Lacey who just appeared before Laren.

"Who is this queen mother? And why did he come to Yun Kingdom?" Ask Laren without further ado.

"For the king?"

"True master, as long as king Yun has not been appointed king, the queen mother is very trying hard for her son to become the crown prince and become the next king. Then to help his son, the queen mother set all kinds of rules and also laws that will apply during the reign of king Yun." Lacey explained in detail.

"Hmm so that's how it is, then what do you think is the reason the queen's mother came to Yun Kingdom and even told the princes to go to the kingdom tonight?" Ask Laren.

"In my opinion, it's because the news that you can walk back is heard to his ears and also this along with the adoption of the Yun kingdom into an empire." Reply Lacey.

"Yes, I used to think that way. I thought if the Yun kingdom had previously been raised to an empire, it turns out that until now it is still not and will only be inaugurated tomorrow morning." Mumbled Laren.

"In his adoption of the Yun Empire into an empire there could be no celebration or crowd of masters, because it was a very special thing if a kingdom could be raised to an empire." Lacey.

"Hmm you're right." Reply Laren while nodding slowly.

After that, because there was no activity Laren decided to purify the remaining magic stones that were still in his possession.

After about an hour of Laren refining his magic stone, there was someone knocking on his door.

Laren stopped his practice and kept the remaining magic stones and opened the door and saw who had come.

"Hamba salutes Prince Laren." Said the bodyguard while bowing.

"Hmm what's up?" Ask Laren.

"Prince, I'm sorry to interrupt your time. But it is time for the princes to go to the kingdom of Yun." Said the guard.

"All right, I'm going. You wait there, I'll catch up." Laren.

"Good prince." Reply to the guard and then leave.

Laren went back into his room and saw Xiao Ying playing around his room.

What about Xiao Ying? I don't know how long it will take, then who will take care and look after Xiao Ying? (Batin Laren asked while observing Xiao Ying who ran to and fro)

"Rayden," Call Laren on arrival.

"Yes prince, servant here. Is there an order?" Said Rayden who had just appeared in front of Laren.

"I want you to stay in the prince's palace." Laren said without looking back at Rayden.

"What's? But why prince?" Ask Rayden in wonder.

"I want you to stay in the prince's palace and keep Ying for me."

"But prince, what if you need me in Yun kingdom later?"

"It's okay, you don't have to worry. I've been able to take care of myself, and you also know my strength Rayden. There's nothing more to worry about right now." Reply Laren.

"But prince..."

"Rayden didn't you say that you would obey all my words if I completed the challenge? Now I want you to stay here and look after Xiao Ying." Laren said as he looked at Rayden.

"Well if that's what the prince wants, I'll stay in the prince's palace and keep Xiao Ying for you." Reply Rayden.

"Thank you Rayden."
