FIRST ARC: THE START OF THE BEGINNING

CHAPTER 7: Meet the Princess?

Zillion is still hiding behind the large narra tree and some thick bushes around it. His eyes were stuck to the prince running away from the group of people, he's running near his location. He need to hide or he'll also be assassinated by those cold blooded killer.

Xiello's figure fighting the group of people instantly captured his attention. The royal guard mumbled some words and a golden armor instantly engulfed his body. A spear also appears from his hand. The royal guard stand in his defensive form, he take a step with his right foot and whirl the spear in front of him. One of the young masters man jump to the air and summon three fire sword around him, he grabbed the two sword and let the last sword to strike Xiello. He spins downward, striking the royal guard with the two fire sword from above.

Xiello successfully dogde the attack, he instantly pierce the man in the chest with the spear in his hand. A fountain of blood, spray toward Xial's face.

Irritation instantly drawn into the young masters face. He shake his head as a surge of silver light circulate around his hand. He summon a silver bow and an arrow with it.

The young master raised his hand and slowly pull it's string. The two disloyal guard looked at each other and attack simultaneously. Xiello successfully block those attack but a silver arrow escape his defense.

Zillion's eyes widened as the bow pierce the forehead of the Royal guard. He instantly covered his mouth. His breath becomes heavier.

After a few seconds, five people left the group following the prince. There's something about him that wants to help the prince. But what could he do, he's only a mere mortal. He'll surely die this time Once he encounter those magic cultivator. But maybe if he could help that man, he could offer him something that could help him in his incoming journey.

The only problem he have is how can he help him now. He let out a heavy breath. I need to think a way or I'll also be hunted by my guilt.

Unknowingly, Zillion's legs move authomatically following the path the prince and the five people take. 'It's suicide! It's suicide' his mind continuously reminding him. But his body were already moving on it's own.

Zillion immediately stop his steps and hide behind a big tree. The prince were already cornered at the bottom of a cliff. Towering walls of the cliff were surrounding him.

The five people were also standing around him, not making him scape.

"Looks like it's the end of the road for you, Your Majesty" There's a sarcastic tone in the voice of one among the people's chasing him.

The cold sensation from the rock of the cliff travel to the back if the young majesty as it touches him. There's nowhere for him to go. The prince curse, multiple time. Xiello's sacrifice were in vain. He didn't manage to escape.

The person in the middle of the five guys mumbled a spell. A bright orange light instantly blind him for a second. As the light slowly disappear a figure of a long fire spear appear in his hands. "Let's finish him!"

Before all of them made a step forward. A fist size rock flew towards them and hit the head of the man with the spear.

Instantly, it capture their attention. The five person surrounding the prince immediately scan the surrounding.

Zillion immediately sprint outside his hiding spot towards the prince position. He grab the prince hand and pulled him outside the besieging man.

He didn't have the time to look back at him at all. He keep his fast and continues step away from them. He's already catching his breath. And his heart were already jumping away inside his chest.

"He... hey! S-stop, who... who..." The prince cut his word. Accidentally, the prince tripped to a medium size rock from the ground. He crossed his legs and loss his balance pulling Zillion down with him.

Zillion's eyes widened as he was pulled down to the ground. The prince groan enter his ear. He fall above the prince body. With his right hand touching the middle of the prince thighs. "KYAAAAAA! You're an enuch!"

Ciel's eyes widened as the surge of heat envelope his face. The prince ear and cheeks were burning red. Zillion's palm were down between his thighs.

"AHHH! Fool! Get off your hands of me!" His loud voice echoed to the thick forest. He raised his left hand and slap the boy atop of him knocking him down to the ground.

The boy instantly sit with his legs crossed while rubbing his sore cheeks due to Ciel's slap. Ciel's slap left a hand mark that were almost beating red in Zillion's face.

Zillion's eye slowly move downward. Ciel immediately stand to his feet. Irritation filled his eyes as he removed the dust covering his dress.

"Wha... Why it's flat? You... You don't have our thing?" Amusement were painted to Zillion's voice.

Ciel's eyes narrowed toward the boy, he lowered his eyebrows and clence his fist. A killing intent instantly thrown towards the boy.

Zillion slowly stand to his feet and still look unconcerned at all. A surge of energy instantly covered the sword on his back. A red transparent red like air covered the crystal on it's hilt. After a few seconds, Sabers came out from it. She yawned as she look towards the prince direction.

The prince freeze to his position as he stare with wide eyes towards the closely transparent image of Saber.

Saber moved his eyes towards Zillion, her eyes were looking down on him. It's stating the word stupid and idiot.

"Offcourse she doesn't have anything like you men have, she's a woman after all."

Ciel's jaw drop, she take a step back. 'How did she know I'm a woman? And what is she? Are they enemy, but why did he save me?' Different thought were running inside her head. She tilt her head, only the royal family knows about that secret so how did she figure that out.

On the other hand, Zillion's eye's opened wide as he shift his sight from Ciel to Saber. "HA! S-she's a woman... So... so woman really doesn't have a long thing on between their thighs."

The sword spirit slaps her forehead. She bite her lower lips to prevent a laugh from escaping. She nod her head, "Offcourse we don't have."

Zillion's eye's instantly fix towards Ciel's chest. There's no emotion painted to his face. "Then why doesn't she have any mountain nor a hill on her chest."

Ciel's eyes slap out of his thoughts as Zillion's word filled his eyes. His face instantly turned red. He really wanted to kill this man. "Is this your first time seeing a flat chested woman! PERVERT!"

There's no changes to the boys reaction, he move his gaze toward her face. "W-Well you could touch mine so we're fair"
