The Dragon'S Blue Gem
(S2) Chapter 115 [The Return of the Prince ]

Turquoise with cold eyes. The Elves are a proud race, but that does not mean they are so to anyone. The proof now none of them dared to anchor themselves in front of Raven. The aura and pressure that showed this huge level difference they could not fight against.

Pride took a few steps forward towards where Turquoise stood.

"So you are, Prince Turquoise of the Elf race. You should have known the purpose for which we came here."

Turquoise goosebumps, he had never met anyone this strong other than his own grandmother.

"Yes. I've heard everything from the Elf elder. The elders said you saved and protected my sister. That's why I thank you."

Although under the pressure of a Pride, Turquoise can still show his calm. From there it can be known that his determination is not that low.

"However, there are enough people who say the same thing in order to get a gift from the Vittacelar Kingdom. How do I know if what you're saying isn't a lie?" ask Turquoise bravely.

Pride was stunned, he did not expect Turquoise to dare say that to him. Either the man is really brave, reckless or stupid.

"I know. That's why I brought the evidence."

"?"

The Elves are under a big question mark. They wondered what "evidence" the woman had mentioned. Of course, Turquoise was the most curious and nervous about it.

But all the curiosity they kept in their hearts instantly disappeared in an instant once Lust pulled a 15-year-old Half-elf with her silver hair from inside the horse carriage.

"?!"

Just look at them immediately knew, the child brought by the suspicious group was indeed the Second Prince of Vittacelar Kingdom who disappeared.

"It's this one, right?" ask Lust coldly.

A happy face immediately painted on the faces of the Elves, of course not with Turquoise. Although his mouth was smiling and his eyes were shedding tears, he continued to curse and was wary of the appearance of the child in front of him.

"Oh!! Prince Aquamarine... Is this really you?" asked the Elf elder with a moved face.

"That's His Highness the Prince!!!"

"Prince Aquamarine is back!!!"

"Prince!!!!"

"Are you okay?!!"

Cheers after cheers rang out filling the Vittacelar Kingdom. All the Elves there are happy to see their kind-hearted Prince who went missing 1.5 years ago and is presumed to have never returned.

"A-aqua?" ask Turquoise to worry.

"What is this...really you?"

The Elves were looking forward to Aqua's response, what would she say once she finally returned home?

"T-No!! I'm not a Prince!!! Who are you?!! What is this?!!" aqua's screams hysterically while breaking free and re-entering the horse carriage.

"?!!"

The response given by the Prince was far different from their expectations. Instead of being happy or moved to return safely, Prince Aquamarine curled up in fear in a horse-drawn carriage.

"What is this?! Why is Aqua acting like that?!" shocked Turquoise.

This time Envy advanced not far from Pride. He began to explain the situation to Turquoise.

"We did say that we saved your Prince and protected him. But we're not saying it's okay."

"As you can see, Prince Aquamarine is not in good shape. As soon as we found him while exploring the dungeon, Prince Aquamarine passed out not far from Princess Citrine's body."

"Either because of the symptoms of severe shock or impact on his head, Prince Aquamarine's memory was messy and mentally disturbed. Well, we could have thrown it away by then. But looking at the color of his hair and the information we have, it seems better to bring him back to the Vittacelar Kingdom."

"Losing memory and... mentally disturbed?!" shock Turquoise's.

Envy nodded without guilt. Hearing Envy's answer and Aqua's situation directly, made the originally happy Elves instantly limp.

"W-how did that happen?"

Turquoise's face showed that he was very depressed and desperate. But deep down, she danced happily. Because even though his sister managed to return, he still could not harm her.

Of course Turquoise is not a careless person to not be sure. He brought a lie checker and a power meter with him. And the result is...

The group in front of him did not lie. And Aqua's strength had really not changed since the last time she saw him. Or maybe it is reduced because of its condition.

"Don't waste our time any longer! We just wanted to take him and come right back. Do you want to take the kid or not?! He's this is really troublesome!" exclaiming Pride awakens Turquoise from his reverie.

"Ah, forgive me. It's hard enough for me to accept this situation. You don't have to worry anymore, I'll take good care of my sister. Thank you for bringing him here. Please just say whatever your request is! I will try as much as possible to fulfill it as a form of my thanks!"

So quickly did Turquoise blend into the situation. He acted like a good brother and loved his sister very much. Of course it made other Elves touched by Turquoise's affection.

But that only makes Raven disgusted.

"no need. Just take him again. We'll continue our business."

As soon as he finished saying that, the entire Raven members instantly teleported to an unknown place, leaving the horse carriage with Aqua still cowering in fear inside.

"Huft... What the fuck are they? Not very polite. Well.thank God they didn't ask for anything in return," Turquoise was upset.

Carefully and full of meekness, Turquoise approached Aqua. He touched the child slowly so that he was not too alert and afraid.

"It's okay. Everything's gonna be okay."

"Who are you?! What do you want from me?!" afraid of the boy.

Turquoise smiled gently full of warmth.

"Look, our hair color is the same. This is the color of our family hair. Only our family has hair color like this."

"K-family?!"

"Yes. I'm your older brother. And you're my little brother. I know you've been having a lot of trouble. Thank goodness you came back safely. Welcome back home, my sister."

Hearing such warm words, made Aqua powerless to hold back her tears. He showed a face like he had not seen the light for a long time. In a short moment, Aqua jumped into Turquoise's embrace and wept roaring.

"Sister!!!!!" crying profusely.

"...!"

Although a bit slow to respond, Turquoise immediately hugged his sister and patted her on the back.

"It's okay. Everything's gonna be fine. Forget the memory loss. You came back safe and it makes me so grateful to the Goddess."

Seeing the heartwarming scene made all the Elves there unable to hold back her tears. They were carried away by the feelings of a brother sister who separated and reunited despite being in a miserable state. All of them were grateful to the Goddess because the Goddess returned their Prince safely.

"Wait for what else?! Close gate!!! My sister is back, let her rest in the palace. After that we will celebrate a big party!!!" the screams of Turquoise delighted all the Elves.

"Why-sister??"

Just like this prince's order, the Elves instantly closed the gate and lined up neatly to the palace while spreading flowers as a form of their happiness.

"It's okay. I'll explain everything back to you. Don't hurry, we can rebuild everything slowly. First accept your status as the Second Prince in this Kingdom. You deserve this cheer," Turquoise's smile warmed Aqua.

Aqua's expression warmed up, the red hue on her face began to adorn her pale face.

"Emm..."

Meanwhile somewhere

"Well, if the bastard list to Hollyw*od, I'm sure he'll get the best actor award" Sloth sneered as he watched them from his rifle telescope.

TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP

The footsteps that sounded approaching him, were simply ignored.

"You're back?" ask Sloth flat.

"Have you noticed from earlier?" reply Envy with other questions.

"of course. I'm getting a sniper."

Sloth glanced briefly at the other Raven.

"How do you feel when you see it firsthand?"

Wrath growled in annoyance, he laid himself on the grass just like that.

"Yes that's it. What to comment on?!"

"The bastard was completely unaware that I had met him."

"Fufufu... Isn't that a good thing? It means our disguise is perfect, "little laugh Pride.

"But I'm still pissed!"

"yes too. At first I was wondering why we should be tired of doing this charade.." - Limpal Lust.

"But on second thought, what Gluttony said is true. For a bastard like him to be destroyed decisively by a much stronger person it was unsatisfactory."

"Ara-ara. Our leader is quite sadistic as well," Pride smiled.

"This boy really knows the best way to get revenge" Sloth said with his signature grin.

The shadow of memory of the thing Gluttony had said to them moments before coming to the Vittacelar Kingdom suddenly flashed.

"Hmm... What should I do...? Which do you think hurts more? Destroyed by someone stronger than you in a landslide

or destroyed bit by bit from the people you think are weaker than you?" gluttony's smile is sneaky.

"Of course the answer is clear~ He who destroyed me first when my expedition was very high, of course, must be destroyed when the expectations are very high as well."
