Chapter 120: Crown’s Shrine 3



As I approached the monument, its towering presence cast a solemn shadow over the courtyard.

Conner gestured toward the stone colossus with reverence. "Behold, everyone, the embodiment of our city’s genesis—the First King, a visionary monarch whose legacy resonates through the ages."

My eyes traced the intricate details of the statue—the regal robes, the stoic visage, and the outstretched hand that seemed to command both authority and respect.

The First King’s likeness exuded a sense of authority and wisdom, frozen in a perpetual gaze over the city he had birthed.

"No matter how I look at it, he looked like the current crown prince." Aeloria, standing beside me, mumbled, looking at the statute.

"You have met that bastard." I asked curiously.

"Yeah, he is a bastard." She replied with a hint of disgust in her voice.

"Yeah, fucker well, trying to go after every woman he lays his eye on." I replied as I remembered him, if one thing that can describe him properly is playboy.

"Did he also try to hit on you?" I asked, looking at her curiously.

"Yeah, but because of Anna, he never got too close." She replied, her expression turning sour, thinking about him.

"Well, he also tried to bully my sister." I mumbled but immediately corrected myself. "My former sister."

"There is no such thing as a former sister." She rebuked me, but I just ignored her comment.

"Anyway, where is ivy?" I asked, as I hadn’t found her since we arrived here.

Normally, she would jump at me at any given time if I was around her.

"I don’t know, she said something was happening in the Fairy realm so she will not be answer to my summons."

"Is that so?" I mumbled as I turned back to follow rest of the class towards the next destination.

"Hey, Eden," Aeloria called out grabbing me by the shoulder as soon as we reached out on the streets, as I looking around the place.

"What?" I asked, turning back to her.

"Don’t you feel something is following us in this place?" She whispered, looking around suspiciously.

"What do you mean?" I asked, also scanning the surroundings.

The city was bustling with people, moving happily without a care in the world.

Understandably so, as they were in one of the safest places in the kingdom.

The old capital held a rich history, and the royal family placed great importance on its security. Various weapons and artifacts were kept here as historical keepsakes.

"Don’t you feel like some people are keeping an eye on us all the time?" She asked, frowning.

’How did she notice that?’ I thought, studying her expression.

Since we got out of the building, many people have been keeping their gaze on us, and why would they not? We are standing out too much here.

Because of that, many of the students have already been ignoring the crowd around us and not giving too much attention to them.

But some of these random people are giving us so much importance that they are following us around the place.

Well, they are not really some random people, some of them are assassin’s who are here for the head of our dear Princess while another group is after destruction of the city.

They are literally planning this attack for years and have made every preparation possible to execute it.

but they are doing their best in regards to not standing out too much, making it hard to notice them.

"Don’t worry about them; I am sure the teachers will take care of them if they try to do anything funny." I replied, as i stated to follow the rest of the class.

"Wait, how could you be so insensitive about it?" She asked, galring at me.

"What do you want me to do? Ask them why they are not minding these business and following us." I replied, feeling annoyed by her behavior.

"What if they try to attack us?" She asked as she followed me.

"You are being too pessimistic."

’Well, they are here for that.’ i thought knowing full well who these people are.

But she sure has some good sense of her surroundings, or maybe she knows―

"Wait, why do you think they will attack us?" I asked, halting my steps.

"What do you mean? Don’t things usually go like this on every trip?" She replied, frowning.

"You are not in a novel, stop thinking about clichés." I replied, turning back and continuing my walk.

I know she is warning me about the attack that’s going to happen, but I am not going to do anything to stop it.

To keep the security of this place busy for a while, I need them to do as much damage to the place as they can.

As I move forward, we quickly join the rest of the group.

’Why are they moving slowly?’ I thought as I noticed both Fatima and Emily walking slowly, getting overtaken by the rest of the students.

"Why are you here, Eden?" As soon as they reached beside me, Fatima said it in a surprised tone.

"I was always here; you are the one who came towards me." I replied as I looked at her.

"Hey, Miss Vice President, I never knew you were such good friends with Eden." Ignoring me Fatima waved towards Aeloria.

"It’s good to see you, Lady Fatima." Aeloria replied with a smile as she bowed gracefully,"And Eden has been my benefactor since childhood."

"Has he now?" Fatima asked.

"Yes, my lady."

"Anyway, Miss Aeloria, do you have any idea why we are paired into groups of two?" Emily asked as she joined our conversation.

"I didn’t know." She replied, shaking her head, "The only thing that I know is that it has something to do with the last place of visit."

"The tombstones?" I asked, knowing what she was talking about.

"Yes, it’s too small for more than two people to enter at once."

"How do you know,Eden?" Fatima asked, getting close to Aeloria.

"We have met in the awakening ceremony." She replied, and immediately Fatima gave her a strange look.

"You do remember what happened there, right?" Fatima asked, glancing at me.

"What happe―"

"Nothing happened; they are baseless rumors." I replied, cutting Aeloria off.

"Mind telling me how you met him?" Aeloria changed the topic as she asked Fatima.

"Well, I met him when we were kids." Fatima replied with a smile, "You know, when we were kids, Eden had his own harem of three following him everywhere."

"Who were they?" Emily asked as her curiosity sparked at Fatima’s words.

"Do not say a word, Fatima." I warned her in a strict tone, but she ignored my words.

"Well, there was Grace, who followed him around, and then there were the two princess―"

"What are you talking about, Fatima?" As she was about to complete her words, a chilly voice interrupted her.

We all turned back, and there Angelina stood with a look that said, ’I will kill you if you say any more.’

"Hello Angelina." Fatima greeted her with a smile and said, "You have been keeping yourself away from us since you got engaged."

"I don’t have any reason to associate with you." Angelina replied before shifting her attention towards Aeloria.

"Can I have some time alone with you? I need to talk." Aeloria nodded at the words as they both moved away from us.

"You know we have been strictly told not to talk about her sister since we were children." I said as I moved towards her.

"I remembered that as well, but how you all behaved like she never existed always made me feel annoyed." She grumbled as she remembered her.

"We can’t do anything about that now; she is no more." I replied to her words as I moved a little towards Emily.

"You didn’t hear anything, okay?" I said with a smile, and she nodded her head quickly.

’They should start any time now.’ I thought as I noticed the sudden silence around the place.

The arrival of the princess in the game was the timer for the start of the event.

That means any time now, they are going to attack us. ’Time to start my plan,’ I thought as I started to slow down my pace.

"Where are you going.?" Emily asked confusedly as I changed my direction from the rest of the students.

"I will be back in just a minute," I replied as I took a turn, arriving on a different street.

Sophia and the rest of the teachers should be able to keep the students safe for a while.

’Aron let’s see what are you going to do this Time.’ I thought as I took out ’Mask of Deception’ from my inventory.
