"You know that you are not welcomed here." Empress's sword touched King Lucifer's neck as she said.
"I know." King Lucifer just gave a smile.
The mountain city, once filled with noise, now stood silent. No one even dared to make a sound. Emperor Gabriel stepped forwards as he said
"Why... Why are you here?"
King Lucifer just sighed as he unhurriedly took out a piece of paper. His smile brightened as he gave the piece of paper to Emperor Gabriel. However, Emperor Gabriel's face twisted into horror.
And somewhere along that horror, he realized that the legend didn't come here for nothing.
"We have your Crown Prince." Said King Lucifer. "But, you must give us the Chand Script."
Empress's sword dropped. Yet her face sat stoic.
The Emperor gradually turned only to meet with emptiness where guards used to be. Empress noticed Emperor's falling face. However, she was also met with disbelief when she faced the same emptiness.
"Any one who volunteers to find the Chand Script will be rewarded with 500,000 gold coins."
People hiding wanted to go out. They all were tempted by the offer but the only thing which kept them from going was the fear of Golden Eyes.
They all knew that there is no guarantee that their eyes will drift to the artifact. More over the consequence of that action is something that can't be solved with money.
Yet a stepping noise rang across the whole mountain as a person came forward.
She was young, maybe around 22 or 23. But not young enough to not understand what was on the line.
Something flicked in the couple's face as they face her. King Lucifer was slightly amused.
However, a line that no one saw coming was delivered by this young lady.
"The Chand Script is with the highness, Crown Prince Isaiah."
King Lucifer's brightened face dropped cold. The royal couple didn't even know what to feel.
"How...How did you know?" Empress asked.
"I am Crown Prince Isaiah's personal attendant. He had placed me as in charge of the Chand Script until Night Polar started. It is currently with him."
