15 Taking Liberties

When the servant announcement has been made, the garden quited down, and the crown prince entered the garden accompanied with royal guards. Without saying anything he walked towards central area of the garden and sat down. Seeing the Crown Prince took seat, the ones who came from the powers which support the crown prince went to greet him and exchange pleasantries and the ones have no relation with the Crown Prince still greeted him superficially. After a couple minutes the servant announced again;

"His Highness, Second Prince has arrived"

As the as before The second prince entered the garden and started look around. When he saw Svaily and Nela sitting at the corner, he went their side with a smile on his face;

"Mister Bain, Miss Seria, I'm glad you accepted my invitation."

Looking at the blond man with politician smile on his face, Svaily smiled and said;

"Thanks for invitation Second Prince." After a bit pleasantries Second Prince tried to probe their identity. While Second Prince were trying to probe their identity, They gave vague answers to him. But even with that Second Prince became assure that Svaily and Nela had a great backing. After probing, they resumed to have small talks. While they were conversing with each other, Svaily couldn't help but ask;

"Prince Brain, is this Heroes gathering just for gather the geniuses of the kingdom in same place or there is more of it?"

"Actually, there is. Do you see empty area in the of the garden, it is for competition." answered Prince Brian.

"Competition, what is the prize?"

"It's just for ranking of the geniuses of the kingdom." Said smilingly.

"It's just for fame huh." Said Svaily seemingly lost his interest.

"I heard that you had an unpleasant encounter with my elder brother." Said Second Prince,

Svaily looked at the Second Prince and smiled with a thought 'Game of Royalty huh'

"He thought I stoled his spatial ring and didn't give him a face, he was just bit annoying."

Just as Second Prince was going to say something, Crown Prince came to their table with a smirk on his face looking at Svaily and said;

"I said you were going to live that day, it's not for this day."

"Do you think I'm going to die because you said so." calmly replied Svaily without even looking at him. Seeing Svaily talked back with a light tone, the Crown Prince became angrier. The crowd around them also taken back,

"Who is this kid, does he want to die."

"Look, he is sitting with the Second Prince."

"Maybe the Second Prince want to protect him from the Crown Prince by sitting with him."

"It seems like there will be direct confrontation between princes over this kid."

There all types of whisperings and speculations within the crowd. But one of the subjects of the whisperings didn't seem like care and just continued to drink his beverage with relaxed expression on his face. Of course it made the crown prince even more angrier by the second, and his smashed his fist on the table, destroying it. Looking at Svaily with fire in eyes growled;

"KID, do you..." without he could finished his sentence, Svaily kicked him on his ribcage, the Crown Prince got tumbled from where he stood, to the center of the garden with his half life left, bloodied state. The garden became silent with only hard breathing of the crown prince. Without the crowd even understand what happened an angry roar came from where the crown prince laying.

"JUNIOR, how dare you hurt the crown prince!!" When everyone looked who was yelling, they sucked mouthful breath. But Svaily didn't even looked who was yelling because the moment the man started to talk, he was trying to press down on Svaily with his aura. And from the aura Svaily could say that he was at 1st grade of Qi Refining Realm. Svaily released his aura with his sword intent to pressure all people in the garden.

"Old dog, there is no one could call this young master, a junior in these lands. And for the crown prince," smirked Svaily "He should be glad I was merciful enough to left him alive."

When Svaily said his line, there was no sound in the garden, because of the pressure released by him. Every geniuses were tensed and looking at him fear in their eyes, including the man who just spoke. Svaily looked around and thought 'Well, there is no atmosphere of gathering anymore' turned to Nela;

"Miss Seria, I think, I'll left the gathering early."

"Then I'll accompany you." smilingly replied Nela. The two left the garden with eerie silence.

"Is there anything left for you to do in this kingdom?" Asked Svaily while they were walking in the streets.

After a bit thought Nela answered "It was my tempering to supervise the auction house in this kingdom. It ended five days ago but I caught up the gossip about the inheritance of Sword-saint and didn't leave here immediately. I gained my aim there isn't anything for me here."

"I also plan to leave the kingdom."

"Do you have any idea where to go?"

"No, I didn't even think where to." talking here stopped and smilingly looked at Nela "Maybe I should go where you go."

Nela smiled and touched his cheek with her hand "Be honest and tell that you can't bare to separate with me." said teasingly.

Svaily rooted to the ground and looked the back of Nela who is giggling while walking away, thought 'She took liberties with me, The script is wrong, definitely wrong.'
