The Ruler of Westeria

TROW 15| Mysterious King

Third Person

Reed look down on his general who was kneeling in front of him with both of his palms on the floor. Pinasidhan niya lang ito ng tingin. He had no idea why he is acting like this, but judging from his character it would be something serious.

"Tell me, what's the problem?" Imbis sumagot ay nagmatigas ito.

"I deserve death for neglecting my duties, your highness! Please, kill me!" Kumunot naman ang noo ni Reed.

He neglected his duties? That's so unheard of. General Khazar is not the type to put his personal matters first before his duties.

"What exactly did you do, Khazar?" Inangat niya ang tingin niya't binigyan ang binata ng nakokonsensyang tingin.

Napahinga na lang nang malalim ang Arkon. He had enough of the shits that's going on lately. He heard Kane lost the armories that was about to be delivered here. It was long been awaited in order to provide the weapons to the new warriors he'd recruited. Such a shame that it was ransacked and nowhere to be found which caused the failure of their trade.

"N-nakipag hiwalay sa akin si Georgia, kamahalan." Tumaas naman ang kilay ng binata. He don't know how to react. Should he be weirded out or feel sorry for him? 

Nilapitan na lang niya ito upang alalayan siya tumayo. He gave him two taps on his left shoulder to comfort him.

"Happy breakup." He didn't know he's such an important person in Khazar's life that he would even tell him his personal love affair. As his superior, he's flattered by his trust and loyalty.

"I appreciate you telling me. I understand." Reed gave him a nod and a small smile. He'd been through a lot of wars against barbarians and bandits and earned a lot of merits for his good work. He is not that hard on his people who accomplished lots of things.

"You may take a leave from your work for a week." The Archon expected him to feel thankful but he just widened his eyes and shook his head repeatedly. Halos ingudngod niya na rin ang ulo niya sa sahig.

"N-no, y-your highness!" Reed crossed his arms as his forehead knotted. 

"I do not deserve your grace and kindness!" Bumalik sa pagkakaupo sa trono ang binata. Nagsalin din ito ng tsaa sa tasa bago siya tapunan ng tingin. 

"Be direct to the point, Khazar." He stood up and took a deep breath. 

"Naghiwalay kami ni Georgia kaya naglasing ako kagabi. I had a conversation with a random third class geisha. And I. . . I had a night with her just to tend my broken heart." Reed scoffed in his head. 

Does banging a woman when you're broken hearted fix it tho? 

The answer is no, women are dangerous in more ways than one. Just when you think they are the solution to your problem, they are actually not. Every woman is just a different type of problem.

It's the same question for women. Does getting laid with men fixed their broken heart? Of course not! The hole in their hearts could not possibly get fixed by a cock. 

"And then what happened?" He asked.

"I was so drunk that I may have disclosed discreet matters such as the manner of my work, the secret passageways of the region, and the locations of the newly breed war horses." Kaagad nagbago ang timpla ng mukha ng Arkon. Khazar could see he was not pleased hearing the news.

Nang mapansin niya ang pagbabago ng ekspresyon ng binata ay naikurap niya ang kaniyang mga mata sa pangamba. Reed saw how Khazar look nervous. Leaking those information is prohibited for it is the secret that only the Archon and his trusted allies know. Ang paglabas ng impormasyong ito sa iba ay maaring magdulot ng kawalan sa kanila.
