Uranium: The Jinxed Prince
The Jinxed Prince 5's

A pair of green netra reflected the moon's shadow behind the window. Unknowingly Brianna touched his lips, it was still obvious the taste of Shawn's cooking he had as dinner last night: the white rabbit satay. This is also one of the reasons Brianna regularly visits this house every once in a while, which is to be able to eat delicious food that he had never before found in his residence.

Out there, the snow came back down, making the window that reflected the shadow of the girl condense. Brianna stared at the darkened window panes, imagining how Shawn, who was the same age as her, would have to face 57 hitmen in the middle of a dark night. Then he remembered the red liquid on the tip of the prince's clothes, and the occasional glare of Shawn holding his chest in an unusual manner.

Geck. Geck. Geck.

Brianna's manic reflex snapped when the window in front of her was suddenly knocked. The girl snorted, lazily opening the window. “What's up?” brianna asked flatly, looking annoyed at the pair of black eyeballs belonging to the young man standing in front of her. “Gosh, just left for a while My Miss is immediately cold once.”

The right corner of Brianna's lips lifted along with a sinister gaze that emanated from the viper's netra. If you do not remember the young man in front of him is the friend of the brother and the son of the duke's family, want it to feel this second also the girl vomited into her ‘bias’ face.

According to Brianna, the young man dubbed as Candidate Husband Number 1 Lionheart is actually not handsome-looking at all, if not for his family background. Look at those ordinary black hair and eyes, not radiating charisma at all. His body was indeed tall, but it was not at all sturdy like the other Lionheart youths. For the size of the nobility, arguably Harry's cheeks are a little too puffed up—but with the fact he is a descendant of Geraldo Lawrencium no one dares blatantly criticize it.

Harry who was feeling funny with Brianna's expression chuckled. “Do not do that. I just wanted to ask if you got any other leads in this monster house?"

Brianna flinched, but tried to hide it with a smile. “For now not yet, but maybe we can get it if it's just a few days away. Like you said, 'he's a monster, right?"

Harry glanced at Brianna for a while, then nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, but whatever happens, we're back in 2 days."

"Why rush once? Who knows, we could find traces of a hit man who survived if we investigate for longer" Brianna asked.

“’Camate’?” Instantly the gaze that the pair of black beads emitted changed, like a darkness that was about to devour its prey. “Brianna, do you think anyone can survive that Goddamn Prince Bearer? Without sword or magic abilities, the monster could even kill 57 people without being injured in the slightest! I don't know what would happen if he touched the sword a little!”

"Even to be honest, I am not at all calm about leaving you alone with that monster in this house!" harry exclaimed in frustration, ignoring the snowflakes that landed on his body.

Brianna gulped. The fact that this fourth prince of the kingdom could use magic was only known to certain people in the residence of the Marquess Plutonium, so it was natural that Harry thought so.

“I know,” said Brianna quietly, "but my ability also can not be underestimated by him. So please don't make an unnecessary fuss."

Spontaneous Harry turned his head, not usually the girl immediately agreed with his statement. The right corner of the young man's lips lifted. Did Brianna finally realize how terrifying the Jinxed Prince was?

“By the way, have you found a place to stay?” ask Brianna to switch the conversation. Harry nodded, then pointed to the northeast direction, “There is a cave located in a fairly closed location. At least I can last for 2 nights.”

Brianna stared at the direction Harry pointed to, smiling. “So apparently.”

“Your Majesty, wake up!” Shawn's consciousness seemed to be forcefully drawn by that voice. Samar, Shawn can see the face of the girl who keeps shaking her body from the sidelines of the eyelids that she is forced to open.

“What's up?” shawn's hoarse voice just woke up asking, then sat down and rubbed the netra.

If he does not remember wrongly, before going to bed he and Brianna had agreed that the girl would sleep in his room, while Shawn slept on the living room sofa. Then why else would the girl wake her up in the middle of the night? Was he not tired after a long journey from the center of the March Plutonium to the forest on the outskirts of this kingdom?

“Your Majesty, can you follow me for a moment?” brianna asked suddenly, then knelt down and clenched her right hand on her chest. Brianna's behavior just made Shawn's consciousness fully collected and spontaneously told the girl to stand up. “Tell me, Miss. You don't have to do something like this..”.

Gotcha. Secretly Brianna smiled, indeed the time for ‘forces’ the fourth prince is when he just woke up, when he was not able to think clearly and act spontaneously. “Then, let's follow me, Your Majesty,” Brianna said as she threw a dark cloak at the young man, then unceremoniously clasped Shawn's hand as soon as he finished wearing it and pulled the young man out, walking in the shade of the night sky and among the snowfields.

For the umpteenth time Shawn blinked a few times, resignedly walking after the pale purple haired girl who pulled her hand. Moonlight became the only lighting in the middle of the forest filled with dense trees. Shawn and Brianna had to lift their steps up high to avoid the roots of trees that spread on the surface.

He was very calm, inner Shawn while quietly observing Brianna's face that looked very focused forward, meaning he did not see it right, the corpses? so the concern that arises since the prince saw the presence of Brianna on the doorstep of his house.

But at the same time, another thought came to Shawn's mind. But what if he had seen her on the way here, but pretended not to know anything? If so.., what does Brianna think of me now?

Shawn unconsciously clenched his other hand. He shook his head, trying to get rid of the bad thoughts just now. For Shawn, Brianna is arguably the 'friend', the only other human being he interacts with. Moreover, they have known each other since childhood. That reason alone was enough to make Shawn not want to be looked upon badly by the girl.

"Wouldn't His Majesty ask where we're going?" finally after a long moment of silence, Brianna started a conversation, making Shawn turn his head.

The silvery-haired youth smiled wryly. "If Miss did intend to tell me, then from the beginning you would have said it before even pulling my hand."

"Hm.... Meaning Your Majesty, you don't want to bother asking because I never intend to tell?" a crisp laugh escaped Brianna's lips. "From the beginning you were really 'lazy'."

"'Lazy'?" Shawn's right eyebrow raised, not accepting the words of the girl in front of him. "First, why bother asking for answers from a stubborn girl like you, Miss Brianna Plutonium? Asking a fly is even better than asking you," said Shawn, annoyed, until he unconsciously spilled all his thoughts.

The gust of night wind caressed Brianna's beautiful face which now flashed a smile. "Geez, so now Your Majesty is comparing me to a dirty fly?"

"Why not?" Unknowingly, Shawn becomes involved in Brianna's game. "In comparison, even dirty flies are more polite than you."

"You mean, Your Majesty, all the flies ask permission before entering His Majesty's house?"

"Of course not," Shawn shook his head, then sighed as if Brianna's ignorance was no longer helped, "when entering people's homes, flies enter without causing any commotion, but you? Never mind the commotion, you always threaten me with the use of your life! Your life!"

Hearing Shawn's last sentence, Brianna tried to hold back a laugh.

"I can even remember clearly 5 months ago, when you came and pointed a dagger at your chest and shouted that I did not appear in front of you, then I must prepare to clean up the body of a girl in the middle of this forest by myself."

This time inevitably Brianna could not help but laugh until his stomach hurt. "As I said, otherwise Your Majesty will not appear before me." Brianna replied in a laugh. “This time is just a coincidence I came along with His Majesty's return, but who knows in the future?”

Shawn clucked as he shook his head inexhaustibly, "What daughter of this Marquess Plutonium still doesn't understand—"

Ah, "daughter of the Marquess Plutonium", those three words instantly made Shawn aware of his recklessness.

Within seconds the young man immediately lowered his head and placed his hands on his chest, "Please forgive my disrespect just now, Miss."

Brianna did not reply, nor did she turn her head, continuing to focus on the road ahead and making sure Shawn's hand was not off. "It's a pity that I enjoyed it enough" murmured Brianna softly, but from this close distance Shawn could hear it.

The atmosphere between the two teenagers was silent.

As the night grew darker and the howls of wild animals became less and less audible, Brianna suddenly stopped, making Shawn who was behind follow. The Marquess's green-sweetened maiden removed her hand from Shawn and turned around, staring straight into the pair of jet-blue neutrals.

"Prince Shawn frost Uranium, let's bet with me!" The wind was blowing so even Brianna said just now, playing at the end of the long robe the two were wearing.

Shawn blinked, showing no particular reaction to Brianna's offer. His eyeballs reflected the shadow of a pair of green beads like vipers, which hid the 'can' behind their hospitality and smile.
