Chapter 6 : Returning To The Palace.

"I was telling him to get someone to clean your canopy bed for tonight."

He felt that it was wrong not to tell her what he was talking to the man.

He thought Ari might feel uncomfortable.

"Alright... but how many languages can you speak?"

Ari said curiously.

"I can speak six languages such as Hwang, Chioye, Sakuro, Spèacie, Noufi and Aruhi and I'm still learning other languages."

Hwang was spoken by the people of Jiuhon, Huryo, Georsh and other surrounding areas.

Chioye was the language of the people of the Xixi Empire and its surrounding territories.

Sakuro for the people of Nakasatuko and the surrounding territories.

Spèacie was the language spoken by the people of the Resis Empire and the surrounding territories.

Noufi for Neofas.

Aruhi for the people of Dalhashi, Bahul, Makhal and others.

"Oh, you're so impressive, I only speak Hwang and Chioye. What a shame."

Ari muttered.

"It's not like I like learning all these languages. Any member of Honoured Family, officials, advisors and army commanders must learn them."

That was one of the royal rules of the Abaki Kingdom. This helped Abaki Kingdom establish strong connections and develop relationships with other kingdoms and empires.

That was also the reason why only Joab and Grandpa Masula could speak and understand Hwang.

Masula was the one who was teaching Yeli and had also taught many other people including Joab.

Johan was just captain of 10 men's team, so he was not permitted to learn those foreign languages.

"Ok fine but all these languages you have mentioned belong to other kingdoms and empires. What about the language of the Abaki Kingdom? Don't you speak it?"

She as a princess have heard about those languages even though she couldn't speak them and she probably knew the territories that spoke each of those languages.

When Yeli heard her question, he realised that he didn't include Bali his vernacular language. He laughed.

"Ha ha ha Abaki's main language is Bali, in that case, I can speak 7 languages."

After chatting for a while Ari decided to sing and dance some dances and songs Jiuhon.

Yeli was full of excitement. He felt the feeling he hadn't felt for a long time.

****

Early in the morning, in another room Yeli, Joab, Grandpa Masula and other men gathered to discuss an important matter.

They sat around a small stone table covered with some think and beautiful garments.

The other men were captains of 10 men teams in the army just like Johan.

Their faces were very serious.

"The matter is the girl has decided to do us a favour. She said she will talk to the king to give us someplace to stay. But we have to follow her to meet the king."

Said Yeli who was the only one with an unserious face and looked calm.

"That is so dangerous, how can we do that? It can be a trap."

A burly man raised a doubt.

Some of them nodded their heads in approval.

"It can't be a trap. I believe her. Why hadn't she left the moment we let her go? She could have come back with her father and dealt with us." Another man uttered.

Yeli stared at him and felt satisfied with the man.

Yeli had spent several hours with her, and he had long found that Ari no longer bore a grudge against them.

So, he thought there was no reason to doubt her.

"I think we have to ponder it carefully before making a decision otherwise it may cost our lives."

Grandpa Masula raised a doubt too.

"Don't worry Grandpa. Only one person will go and come back to let us know if the king had agreed or not"

"One person!?" They all asked in unison.

They were astonished. One person could easily get harassed and killed.

'Why does the Honoured Prince want to sacrifice someone!'

"The person's life would be in danger. Don't think that is a little cruel?"

Johan who hadn't spoken the entire time finally spoke.

"Don't worry again, I'm the one to go"

Yeli said a little playfully while smiling.

The men frowned.

'What is the Honoured Prince doing? Playing with our hearts. Why didn't he just tell us straight?'

When Yeli said that only one person had to go, they began thinking that he was becoming harsh and cruel to them. Now he said he was the one to go.

They were at a loss for what to say.

But after pounding what he said, they still thought that the Honoured Prince is becoming harsh to himself.

"But what about your defence? You have already forgotten what happened years ago? That is the very same king who killed our brothers!"

Johan uttered in disapproval.

"This time, it is different, Ari will stand by my side. She is willing to give us a hand otherwise she could have left a long ago with the treasures. But what? She chose to apologise and even stay one more night with me. She even took the initiative to say that she wanted to help us to get out here. In addition, you know better my abilities no one there can afford to harm me."

Yeli said in a calm tone but full of confidence.

"Alright, but I still don't know why I feel like not letting you go alone. How about going only with me? I'm not trying to be think-skinned, but I'm somehow outstanding and with you along, they probably can't afford to harm me too."

Joab couldn't bring himself to let Yeli go alone.

He could pay with his own life to save Yeli. That was also the case with all other men.

When Yeli said that only one person should go. No one of them was willing to be that unlucky man.

But now that Yeli was the one to go. They really wish they could follow him.

After all, their task was to look after the Honoured Prince. King Tharbera specially chose them after seeing how loyal they were.

"Ok get ready then. We'll be leaving soon."

Seeing Yeli agreeing to Joab's request the other men turned green with envy.

However, they didn't dare to show their disapproval instead they casted jealous gazes at Joab.

"Hey everyone! Listen, we will be back soon to take you to a new place. Please, be happy."

Yeli said after seeing the awkward expressions on their faces.

After saying that he patted Johan's shoulder and walked out.
