The Lady Gangster’s Mission For The Prince

The next day, Prince Dylan was coming home from the other side of the area where the average person lives. Growing vegetables was the only source of income. He visited them and checked if the livelihood of the people there was still good.

The prince is near, together with some soldiers in the palace while riding a horse. When they arrived in front of the palace, he came down, and the soldier took the rope of the horse and brought it into the stable. He went inside and was immediately greeted by the soldiers guarding the big door. They bowed at the same time, but as soon as he entered the palace, General Agustin immediately greeted him.

“Good morning, prince. Did you have a good and safe trip?”

“Yes, but I need to rest first, and I’m tired from traveling.” He was about to leave when the general stopped him.

“But before that, the king is calling you. I know you’re tired, but what your father has to say is important.”

He just sighed because he wanted to lie down and rest, but eventually, he went with General Agustin. They entered his father’s office and proceeded to the part where there was a table that could fit six people, two on each side and one at each end of the table. His father sat at the end of the table, and he sat near him.

“Father, what are we going to talk about today? I wanted to rest, but General Agustin said. Do you have something important to tell me?”

The king folded his hands. “Yes, it’s important, and I have to say it now, not tomorrow, but now. Later, you have to train again with General Agustin. ”

He was surprised at what his father, the king, said. “That’s what you’re saying is important, Father?”

“Yes.”

“But I haven’t rested yet from traveling to distant places.”

“You can rest now, but you must be awake and train before the sun goes down.”

He frowned as he looked at his father. “Can’t I just train on another day?”

“No, it can be done for at least an hour, and then you can stop.”

He’s wondering what his father is saying that he can’t explain. He will practice for an hour? General Agustin and his training time sometimes reach five hours, but now it’s only one hour. What else can they do if it’s only an hour of training? But he just obeyed since his father ordered it.

“Then, I’ll go to my room and rest and wake up before sunset.” His father nodded, and then he completely left that room.

Meanwhile, General Agustin and King Stephen were left behind. “Go to Adira’s room and tell her that he has agreed.”

General Agustin bowed in respect before leaving the room and continuing to Adira’s room. “Young lady, may I come in?” He said it with strength in front of the door to Adira’s room.

General Agustin continued to enter as it opened. “Good news! The prince is here at the palace. He has agreed, and before nightfall, we will train. If you want to secretly watch, you can go to the top of the palace so you can see how he moves, and if your vision is like an eagle’s, just be careful because he might notice you and we suddenly stop, and you won’t see how he trains. ”

“All right, I’ll do it.”

“Then I’m leaving. Don’t forget, you should be at the top of the palace before nightfall. ” She nodded. “I’m going out.” General Agustin finally came out, and she decided to go to sleep and wait for the time because she had nothing to do in that huge room.

By afternoon, Adira was at the top of the palace, but she had not yet seen the prince in the lower part of the palace. She only looked for a long time before she saw two people come out and go to a place with various weapons, such as bows, swords, and pointed wooden sticks. They are now in the middle. It is huge, so it is easier to move.

She hasn’t seen the prince’s face yet because she’s in the upper part of the palace, so she can only see his head. She just watched them because they were getting ready for training, but she immediately saw the prince’s weakness. His grip on the handle of the sword was not tight, and it was obvious that he was just holding something about to be released due to the looseness of his grip. She saw General Agustin; she saw that he was good at fighting, especially when holding a sword. General Agustin started rushing, but the prince, she saw, was not good, especially when he held the sword, and from what she saw, she was sure he will die in battle from the weakness he shows. She looked carefully at the hands of the two and saw how the prince raised his sword to the sword of General Agustin, and it was obvious from the force of the general’s sword strike that she saw the prince’s grip on the sword loosen. She was alerted because General Agustin was serious but the prince was not, so the general’s sword could slip and hit the prince in the face. She was so focused that she hit a small pot and was shocked that she just watched it fall. But the two stopped at the bottom when the pot fell to the ground, so General Agustin and the prince looked at where she was. The eyes of the prince met hers, so she bowed down.

“He probably didn’t see me, did he?” she asked herself.

Meanwhile, Prince Dylan frowned. “General, is what I saw right? Is that a young lady?”

General Agustin’s eyes blinked. “Where? I didn’t see anything.”

“I saw a real person, and she is a woman.”

“Maybe you just hallucinate, your highness?”

“But-” He looked at the pot that fell and immediately let go of the sword he was holding. “My plant!”

Prince Dylan is worried about the plants that have no pot and that the soil has separated, as well as the plants that have gone everywhere. “My plant!”

General Agustin frowned at what the prince said. “Your plant, dear prince?”

“Yes, it’s mine. I made it grow for a month, and then it just fell.” He looked at the top of the palace again and walked quickly towards it.

Meanwhile, Adira peeks in again, but Prince Dylan and the general are gone.

“Where are they now?” She was surprised when the door opened loudly to reveal her.

She was stunned for a moment, and the man was now standing a few steps away from her. “You! ” His finger pointed at her. “You’re the reason my plant fell!” He made his eyes squint even more.

She can’t speak at first because it’s her fault that the pot fell, but what she’s wondering is why he was so concerned about the plant.

He frowned. “Wait, who are you? What are you doing here in the palace? You’re a spy! General, catch this woman right now! ” But General Agustin just stood behind the prince and did not move.

He was surprised because General Agustin was still not moving. “General, why haven’t you taken action and arrested her?”

He hesitantly smiled at the prince. “I’m sorry, dear prince, I cannot do as you command.”

“Why?” He looked at her. Now she was smiling. And he was completely confused by what was happening.

“We have to go to your father, Prince Dylan’s, office again.”

“Why do we have to go there again?”

“Just come with me, you too, young lady.”

Prince Dylan looked at her in disbelief. “Why is she still included?”

The general did not answer him and started walking. “Go ahead and follow him; my time is wasting and I’m in a hurry,” she said.

“Who are you and what are you doing here?”

She looked at him seriously. “Follow the general so you can find out who I am. Not because you’re a prince, you won’t follow what the general said, especially the more questions you ask. ”

“Who are you to say those words?”

She grinned. “You’ll find out when you go to your father’s office, but it looks like I’ve made a decision, and I’m sure you won’t like it.” It walked away and left him wondering, but after a few moments, he followed, and they sat down together on the chairs next to the table.

Before Prince Dylan was even fully seated, he immediately asked. “Father, who is she? I don’t like the behavior she showed me earlier. She is guilty; she destroyed my plant! ”

She raised her eyebrows. “I didn’t mean it. The way you talk, it’s like I meant to trip over the pot and fall.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The prince gave her an angry look. “If you weren’t there, my plant would still be alive!”

“Then dig and plant seeds so that you have a plant again. Is that a problem?”

The two were just shocked when the king hit the table with all his might. “That’s enough!”

“But father-”

“I’ll tell you why she’s here, so listen, Dylan; you two have to agree.” The king looked at him. “Have you made a decision yet?”

She nodded. “I accept.”

The king smiled, much to Dylan’s surprise. “What’s that for, Father?”

“By the way, she is the one who will teach you how to wield a sword and other qualities of a prince who can face even if you are the only opponent of them all.”

He frowned and seemed to be judging her. “I don’t understand. What can she do to teach me? She’s a woman and doesn’t seem to know how to fight either.” He was even proud of what he said.

She smiled secretly, but his father laughed out loud because of what he said about her.

“It’s too early to say that, son. You don’t know who she is, so don’t judge the person you just met because you might regret why I chose her to teach you. ”

The prince looked at her, so she raised an eyebrow at him. “Why do you seem to be in such a hurry to learn how to fight? The surroundings are quiet, and we don’t have any enemies.”

The king looked at General Agustin. “You don’t control time, son. You better learn now so you don’t go home defeated when there is a sudden war or you have an enemy to meet.”

The king produced a document and gave it to her. “Sign the document for your passport, and I’ll make it valid so you don’t have any trouble going home and coming back here. By tomorrow, before you leave, the passport will be in your hand.”

In her mind, “It’s so easy when a person has power.” She just shook her head and signed the document.

While Prince Dylan just watched and was confused by what was happening. “Does that mean she’s from another country?” he suddenly asked.

Everyone stopped except Dylan.

“Yes.”

“How strong and talented is the woman in front of us? Why is my father so very impressed with her?” he said to himself.

After Adira signed the document, King Stephen spoke again. “Would you mind introducing yourselves to each other?”

She looked at the prince, who didn’t seem to like his father’s idea, so she didn’t speak either.

“Dylan, introduce yourself to her, then we’re done.”

She saw that the prince was trying to prevent her from making a scene because it looked like he didn’t like her whole being. “I am Prince Dylan, the only son of King Stephen, the King of Stalwart Castle.”

She, on the other hand, got ready and gave herself the honor of introducing herself. “Adira, from another country, and I am the one feared in the world of gangsters.”

The prince looked at her with his eyebrows almost touching. “Gangster, what’s that?”

“People who kill anyone who bumps into them are heartless and kill as if they were taking the life of a non-human being.”

He suddenly looked at his father. “Father, what kind of person did you hire? Why a gangster! ” She can see the fear in his eyes.

While she was already laughing out loud in her mind. “Your son, King Stephen, is not only a weakling, but he is also a coward.” An angry eye met hers. “Don’t worry, my dear prince. I will take care of you, and you won’t have any more scars, even though I have a habit of not following through on what I want. ” She stopped speaking and stared at the prince, waiting for the next thing to say. “You will get a punishment from me that you will not forget. There is nothing you can do because I have accepted the mission. Even if you kneel in front of your father, I will not take back my decision.” He gave her an obstinate look, which she avoided. “So during training, you need to be alert because you can use that infighting. You can’t just wait for the enemy to come to you and just die without fighting. ” She looked at the prince again and smiled a little.

But the effect of that little smile on the prince was so strong that he was surprised by the acceleration of his heart rate.
