Chapter 255 255: The End Of It All [Pt2]
?
As soon as Huye had heard the words that were spoken between Yohan and Freshia, she knew she needed to warn everyone.
There was no love lost between her and the little goddess but Huye knew that the resistance had come to depend on the foreigner. And as such, Huye wanted to make sure the little goddess understood what was happening.
But Huye did not get to go far before the veins decided she would make a tasty snack and started to collide all around her. Huye had to take a deep breath to curb her fear.
“Well, look who we have here. A small rat is sneaking around the place and doing as she pleases. I wonder what gave you the courage to run around like this.”
Yohan had caught Huye with his magical chains and she could not escape them. She was trapped in her place and her face looked terrified of Yohan. Yohan tried hard not to laugh at Huye’s discomfort but he could not help it.
Huye was just too funny sometimes and especially when she thought she could outsmart Yohan.
It was too bad that she had no idea what she was doing.
“You bastard. We trusted you to help us out. We also trusted you not to betray our trust. But you ended up doing both.”
Huye was not yelling but it was only because Yohan was not allowing her to yell. Otherwise, she would have told the whole palace what happened here.
Yohan snapped his fingers and the binds holding Huye tightened around her body. She was in pain but she could not convey her thoughts on her face.
Huye refused to show Yohan any weakness despite him trying his best to make her. It was all very painful for Huye to bear.
“Oh, you trusted me? But I never got the feeling that you did. After all, you stopped contacting me as soon as you felt like it. You also did not inform me of this raid so how was I supposed to know I would interfere with your plans, huh?”
Yohan simply spoke as if it did not matter to him anymore. But his words caused Huye to flinch. It was the truth that she had not kept Yohan in the know-how of what was going to happen next.
She had not even thought about him and what would happen to him. He was not a part of the rebellion and he had also no connection to Lady Freshia. He would not have been able to help Huye -
“See, you are doing this again. You are weighing me to see if you can trust me or not. But you see Huye, you do not have a choice in this matter anymore. You must trust me or you would be killed.”
Huye flinched as her limbs were pulled upon. It was painful and the stretch felt uncomfortable. She was not able to even speak up on time.
But the more she tried to speak against it, the more Huye realized that it did not matter what she did. Yohan had already made up his mind.
“Are you going to kill me?”
Huye questioned with a tried expression in her place. She had already gone through so much and it had resulted in her being confined to a place and losing everything she had fought hard to build up.
She no longer had any regret even if she ended up dead. She would not be able to take anymore.
“Kill you? Hmm, I should kill you. But I also feel sorry for you and your condition. I feel like you can still be of use to me even if I do not kill you. So how about it? Do you want to cooperate with me?”
Yohan extended his hand to Huye and she looked at him with a blank expression. She did not know what to do with his hand.
Should she take it? Should she not take it? What should she do next?
“I guess there should be no problem in my taking this hand for now. It is not like I have any other choice and my life is a mess right now.”
Huye took Yohan’s offered hand with a hesitant expression and power filled her body. She could feel chains binding her soul and loyalty sprouting inside her mind toward Keith.
She knew the emotions she felt were not her own but she could not stop feeling them anymore. She needed to consider her feelings but Huye no longer felt like herself.
“What happened? What was that power? What did you do to me, Yohan Strout? I feel different from before.”
Huye spoke with awe in her voice. She looked at her hands, not being able to believe that this power was hers now. Her hands were full of weird power and she felt much more powerful than before.
It felt like Huye could do anything if she put her mind to it. And there was no one to stop her either.
“This is the power of the guardian, the one who swears loyalty to the realm key’s holder. I chose you for this role so that you can rule this place as my proxy. I hope you are ready to uphold your position.”
Yohan ordered Huye and she looked excited to take up this role. Her eyes were shining with the need to be the news that she would become the next queen.
“I see. So that is what happened and that is what the purpose of my life is now? I cannot say that it is too bad. Yohan Strout, I accept your proposal. Whatever happens next, I will follow your command and make sure you will be followed.”
With that said Keith gained new followers. It had taken such a short time for the new queen to be appointed.
“Now then, you should go and give the rebellion a little hello. After all, you cannot allow a rebellion to take place now that you are the queen, right?”
Huye looked intrigued. Her expression said that she had not even realized that it was a possibility. But she was suddenly fired up and her new magic surged inside her body.
“You are right. I should go out and say hello.”
