Chapter 45
Third Person's PoV
"They sent us some letters," One man announced. Agad naman itong nakuha ng atensyon ng kanilang kasamahan na nasa baryo. Ang isang baryo na nasa kalagitnaan ng gubat. A barrio in the middle of nowhere.
"Tungkol saan ba ang sulat na ipinadala nila?" Tanong ng isa pang lalaki na naatasan na mamuno sa ngayon ng kanilang grupo.
"Gising na raw ang empress," Paunang pahayag nito na nakuha ng atensyon ng isang lalaki na na kasama nila. A man who also happens to be the 12th imperial council...
"Ano? Gising na siya? Kailan pa?" Sunod-sunod na tanong ni Flynn Bhavani tungkol kay Adela. This is something that messed up. This is not part of their plan. Masyadong napaaga ang gising ni Adela, at hindi ito ang dapat mangyari. Everyone became frustrated because of their plan that failed. Ang hindi nila akalain na mapapansin ito ng iba pang manggagamot sa Korvus at mabibisto si Therese.
After what happened, the group became quiet for the meantime. But they know they need to create another plan because the emperor... the emperor of the Litis Empire wouldn't be happy if they didn't project a new plan.
The main reason why Adela joined the group is because she wants freedom. Gusto niyang makalaya sa palasyo at makasama si Flynn Bhavani, her longtime lover. She cares for her freedom. You can tell she's somehow selfish, she didn't even bother to check for her children with Valdar. Hindi na niya iniisip iyon, ang mahalaga sa kanya ay ang kalayaan niya— ang kalayaan nila ni Flynn.
"Gising na siya, iyon lang ang nakalagay sa sulat na isinulat niya," the man answered. Pero biglang pumasok ang... prime minister ng Azumi. Agad naman nagtaka ang kanilang kasamahan sa kanyang reaksyon. He looks bothered and worried... tila nag aalala sa pwedeng mangyayari sa susunod.
"At nga pala, nakalagay din ito na may ipapadala sa Azumi, Cluster." He said to the prime minister. The prime minister expected that. Due to the country's betrayal, they must pay for what they have done.
"Sino ang ipapadala nila?" Tanong ni Cluster sa lalaki.
The man shrugged, "Iyon ang hindi nila alam. Ang sabi dito hindi nila alam kung sino ang ipapadala sa Azumi. So Azumi better get ready," he said. Cluster immediately nodded.
"Kung ganon, bukas na bukas, aalis na ako at babalik sa Azumi. I'll prepare the army then," he said and then left the room. But somehow, he has a feeling... a bad feeling about this one.
The people around the room are simply the ally of the Litis Empire, the rival empire of the Al-Uzza Empire. Those people who want to gain power, pursue their freedom, seek revenge, greed for money, and betray the Al-Uzza Empire.
They're on a mission, a mission to put an end to the Vertishire Dynasty... on the Al-Uzza Empire.

Carmela's PoV
"Matalino talaga si Dagmar. Bata pa matalino na talaga 'yun eh," I heard Astrid say. We are still talking about what happened yesterday... at hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin kami makapaniwala sa nangyari kahapon.
"That makes sense. Hindi ko akalain na siya ang magiging volunteer para sa ikalawang prinsipe. Akalain mo nga naman?" Franco said. Sumandal na lamang ako sa upuan. Maging ako hindi ko rin akalain iyon. Hindi ko akalain na si Dagmar mismo ang mag vovolunteer para sa ikalawang prinsipe. I mean, she's just his companion in the mission... Pero bakit may iba akong pakiramdam dito?
May hindi ba kami nalalaman tungkol sa dalawang iyon?
Napatingin ako kay Reagan na bigla na lamang tumahimik. Parang may iba kasi sa ekspresyon niya eh. By the way, nandito lahat kami sa inn at magkakasama sama. Kakakain lang namin ng tanghalian at ngayon ay nakatambay lang kami. Wala pa namang inuutos sa amin eh. Pinag uusapan namin ang nangyari kahapon dahil alam kong lahat kami hindi makapaniwala. Wala dito sina Caerus at iba pang miyembro ng imperial family, I think they're having lunch somewhere separated from us.
