Beomgyu took deep breaths before he shook his legs and kicked one guard on his crotch, hastily letting go of one of his arms. And he did the same on the other.

With his now free arms, he looked at them and stepped on both their faces before he walked away with a smirk plastered on his lips, completely forgetting that there was one more soldier behind him.

And he was shot at his back, making him fall on the cold ground. "Well, fuck."

-

"General, there's an intruder from the Kingdom of Hearth who stepped into our border. Yeonjun, Jungkook, and Keeho had now captured him."

The General who was seated on his wooden chair looked at the man with dead and disappointed eyes, clenching his jaw from another news that he didn't like.

Didn't the Kingdom of Hearth's Queen agree to let go of their grudges so both of their kingdoms get to live their lives peacefully? Didn't they agree on not causing another battle and rather talk? Are they not tired of everything yet?

"General, what do we do? The fairy had been wounded and is bleeding out with countless scars imprinted on his body. But Keeho only shot him once," That seemed to have caught the General's eyes.

"Where is the intruder?" He asked, rubbing the cigarette butt on his wooden desk, applying a balm on his lips right after.

"Inside one of the dungeons, General. He is currently chained," The soldier retorted that didn't appear to please the General. He clenched his fists into a ball and placed down on his desk, his eyes calm yet didn't seem to be. It surprised the soldier. "Is- Is there something wrong, General?"

"Didn't you just tell me that the fairy was wounded and bleeding? Why did you not get him treated first before locking him in? That fairy might die and I can't let anyone, outside of this kingdom, die in our hands," The General kept his voice firm and looked straight at the soldier.

"But he intruded our territory-"

"But he is wounded, didn't you say? Get his wounds dealt with then you can chain him back in the dungeon once done. I will talk to the intruder after the Healing Fairy have cleaned him. Call me once it's finished," The soldier nodded at the General before hesitantly walking out of his office. If the fairy dies in their hands then they have committed a blunder.

When the soldier had stepped out, he pulled out another one of his cigarettes from the chest pocket inside his uniform and flickered a lighter. The General who swore not to smoke again just broke his pact to himself. He locked the cigarette in between his lips and glimpsed at all the papers laying down on his desk.

He flinched when he heard knocks on his door out of the quietness.

"Who's that?" He asked. The door opened when he raised a question, only to see that it was Yeonjun, his right hand.

"Ugh. I did not expect to see a fairy from the Hearths in our territory today. He did something so rude and unbelievable," Yeonjun sighed and sat on the couch placed beside the General's office's entrance. "Can I have one?" He asks, the General handing him a cigar.

"What was it?" The General asked disinterestedly, breathing his cigarette in and blew it out so smoothly. Yeonjun looked at him with pain and pointed at his crotch, making the other frown his face. "What..?"

"The wingless fairy kicked my dick. It hurts! I might not be able to produce a family of my own at this point! I'm blaming everything on that fairy," Yeonjun wailed and looked at his friend with despair who wasn't even looking at him. He threw his shoe at the General.

"Are you not listening? I'm here telling you about losing my chances of producing good-looking children and yet you're not interested?" Yeonjun fished a lighter from the pocket of his gun.
