4 Finally found him

A bright sunny day suddenly turned into spring. Like always the king was using a locator spell to find his son when it actually worked.

He found the location of his son again in the human realm like he was always there. It means someone has put a guardian spell on him which has been broken recently. He was happy through and through.

He called his best friend Harold to share the news so that it can be announced well and a feast could be organised as a welcome back party for his son.

He would himself go there and bring his son back. But his friend has other ideas, Harold Was not only his Friend but also Duke of the nation.

He had thought about that accident again and again in the past twenty years. How could his son reach the human realm and why? If someone wanted to kill the prince they could have just done it here.

There is no sense in taking the child far away just to be killed? And if the killing was not the purpose then why did the maid kidnap the baby. It's not possible that like humans they could hide the baby and ask for money.

Witches have power and magic in them which also helps in locating the person as the king did. And even if we assume that it's kidnapping for some reason then why did nothing was asked ever.

In fact, the child was kept hidden, if he is alive just like the king said, then most probably the maid killed herself to keep the baby hidden which is one of the biggest sacrifices in the witch realm.

So, there must be some conspiracy behind it, which is kept well hidden. So the prince should remain dead in the eyes of the public until they find the truth.

"I think first we should bring the prince back here safely then we should announce about him" Harold advised with a grave face which turned the king into serious mode again. "His safety is much more important than a feast. We can arrange as many as you want, once we meet him"

"It's not like I have not thought about it Harold, but you know how the locator spell works. It only gives you a direction.

You need to find the person there, and it won't be easy to hide if knights go to the human realm, they would be suspicious and the Matter would come out" the kind replied after analysing the situation.

"Hmmm, leave it to me. We don't need knights for it. It's not like we are going on war, and they mostly don't know the human realm better than us.

We are not living in the sixteenth-century my King, things have changed there. We are the best option to go there. And no one will be suspicious because we often go in the human realm for trade and other work"

"But isn't it the same, what if any member of your team told others about it? I am not doubting them. It's just they could tell friends or family the reason for their going, and you know how this kind of information spreads like fire in the dry straw" replied the king shaking his head.

"I know, you don't have to worry about it. Only three people will know about it. You know my son, Victor got engaged last week. We can send him and your daughter Cynthia as his fiance along with my daughter Valerie.

We can tell people that he is going to take my responsibilities after marriage. That's why he is going to live in the human realm for a while to learn about it.

My daughter is going as a guide since she has been going there with me since childhood. You can always trust them." He started the best theory possible at that time.

"Of course I can, Valerie is like my own daughter. But only three people are not enough. It would take a lot of time." He didn't have that much time.

" I know but it's the best for now. You don't want to suffer once again. Do you?" his question immediately finished the discussion.

" Fine, as you deem fit. I trust you with my life Harold" he replied at the end.

********

In the palace

"What are you doing Vale?"

"It's Valerie, VALERIE, Victor. Why can't you just take my name? I am not a kid anymore. Vale sounds like well. " She replied angrily with a hmph.

" Fine, don't be too noisy. Now would you tell me why are you following me into the palace? I am here for work Vale, I mean Valerie"

"Yeah, yeah I know watching the princess all day is very hardworking work. When you can be lovey-dovey all the time, Take a walk near the lake or what's more to have a royal dinner!!"

"I am not here to meet Cynthia, I am here to check on the knights. I am in charge of training their mental power since I have the strongest ability of mind manipulation. Not like some who can only fly."

"Hey, I can also use the power of nature except flying" she replied while sending nearby vines in his direction to bound him.

"And I can use my mind for anything I want to like this." He replied while stopping the vines without even looking at them and throwing a small pebble over her head.

" Hey! Did you just hit me?" She asked angrily with a shocked and unbelievable look on her face. "How could my own brother be too cruel!"

" Asking the one who sent those vines to chain me! Common Vale, I have work to do. I am not a kid anymore to play with you here all day!

Why don't you go to Austin, you know he will leave all the work for you just to get your one look!" He said helplessly and sighed.

"Austin is going to be king soon Victor, he is busy in his training. I don't want to disturb him. It's been a year since we last spent some good time together!

Those people are always around him looking like hawks. A mere mistake and he would be attacked badly. And... I don't know. You have been busy with your duties while Austin has his own responsibilities.

Ellen is always out of reach. You know how she is! While Cynthia, what to say! She is always busy with learning. She is not going to be the queen but she is the most dedicated one"
