Yisha and Han Sen returned to the base of the Ice Blue Knights, where they ran into Ice Blue Knight King. It was fairly obvious that he had been unable to navigate the palace maze, and had thus decided to return.
When he saw Yisha and Han Sen come back together, Ice Blue Knight King's eyes widened.
"Knife! I am so glad to learn that you are still alive..." Ice Blue Knight King said, coming up to her.
"I'm afraid that my survival might not be a good thing for you," Yisha growled.
Ice Blue Knight King frowned. "Yisha, what makes you say that?"
"I am alive. That means no one is allowed to bully my student. Do you understand now why that might not be a good thing? It would have been better for you if I had remained dead," Yisha said, her voice as hard as stone.
Ice Blue Knight King fidgeted awkwardly, but he said, "I was just doing my job! I had no choice in the matter. There were some things I just had to do."
