Chapter 285: His people
Nessa never wanted to kill anyone, but she knew that some people couldn't stay within their lives or they would endanger the innocent; everyone has their own reasons for doing things, and some have to do it even if they don't want to while other just do it.
As Nessa approached the king, he smiled at the girl he had killed and she sighed before lowering her head.
The other approached Nessa and Sophia hugged her tightly from behind as Isamu and Terou appeared before them, and Nessa chuckled then smiled at Sophia and she grinned before releasing her, after which Nessa patted Terou and Isamu on the head and they bowed, and she exhaled deeply as they looked at the shambles that had been created by the fight.
"We have a lot of cleaning up to do," The prince said as the members of the guild exchanged glances and the knights approached them then looked at their king.
"Your highness," The captain of the knights said and the king sighed, then sat up and braced back on a broken apart wall then looked at Nessa.
"You are someone who knows a bit about us and wants us to fall apart, who are you?" He asked as she looked at his wound and how bad it was.
"You don't need to know anything about me, this wouldn't have happened if you had just backed off you know," She responded and he chuckled.
"If I did, I would have died an entirely different way, it's better this way, it's not like you care, but I don't blame you for what you had to do Nessa, listen to me carefully, this fire that you might get yourself caught in, it's one that can engulf the entire world if it's not stop, you don't know the half of it, this is not just one person, just know that powerful people are in this, I can't tell you anything else other than that, any place in chaos, know that it's them, good luck, all of you," He said as he took his final breath.
The prince as well as the others knew they would have many questions and he intended to answer it all in time.
"So that's why you guys were fighting, but, how do you guys know all of this?" The captain asked and Nessa glanced at him.
"Because I am the king and queen's son, the true heir to the throne," He responded and the captain's eyes widened as he stared at him and everyone gasped, not knowing what to say next.
"How are you the son when they have never mentioned anything about you before?" The captain asked and Nessa sighed then stepped forward.
"He will explain to you guys, first to clear your doubts, we will show you the proof, I am one myself, he is the prince and I am the one that met his parents just before they died," Nessa said as the people looked at them and the prince then showed them all the proof he had.
After seeing all of the proof that they had, it cleared their doubts and they were all happy to know that he was the prince and they all bowed before him and he flinched and was about to move back, but Nessa placed her hand on his back and he looked at her then she smiled as Yonja and the others bowed as well as the knights.
"Don't, they are your people now, your responsibility, I respect you, but I won't bow, if that's okay?" She asked and he smiled and then nodded.
"That's okay with me, I have no problem with that, you have supported me all this way, your respect is more than enough and we have a lot to discuss," He responded and she chuckled then he smiled and looked at his people before taking a deep breath.
The prince was not accustomed to getting that much attention from anyone, but he knew that now everything was different, he was no longer living within the shadows that he was in for all those years and he had to change if he wanted to protect his people and that's exactly what he intended to do.
