Chapter 91
"Are you alright, sir?"
Loki continued staring at the grass below him bago unti-unting umangat ang tingin sa lalaking tumigil sa harapan niya para tanungin kung ayos lang siya.
The guy's tall, probably already reached 6ft height. He has light blond hair and is wearing a black blindfold around his eyes. He's also really pale, paler than Sif in Loki's eyes. He is holding a silver cane in his right hand.
"Sir?" Tanong niya ulit.
Loki squinted his eyes on the man. "Are you blind?"
"Man... That's rude." Tawa nito.
"Yes, I'm blind." Tumawa ulit ito. "You're really very much like your father. Haist. He's also rude when he first met me."
Nagulat si Loki sa narinig. "W-what?"
Paanong nagagawa siyang makausap ng lalaking ito na para bang nakikita siya nito?
"You must have been shock and confused." The man hummed, smiling gently. "Get used to it. I really act like I'm not blind kaya marami ang nag-iisip na umaarte lang ako at hindi talaga ako bulag." Tawa niya.
"Your accent..." Napansin ni Loki. "You're from Ferrucio."
The man hummed.
"Your father also is from Ferrucio. Did the Empress already tell you about him?" He leaned his weight on his cane, relaxing in front of him.
"Yes. We talked about it earlier."
"What do you think, then?" Tanong nito sa kaniya. "After knowing that you're also a part of the Imperial Family of our empire? A full-blooded Imperial Prince. Notice how both the oldest and the youngest child of the Empress are full-blooded? My... Such a coincidence."
"It's fine." Tanging sagot ni Loki.
"You're not excited that you found out that you are our prince? A member of our Imperial Family?"
"Why would I?" Kunot noong tanong ni Loki. "Wala namang nagbago kahit na malaman ko iyon."
Natawa ito ulit. "You really are your father's son."
"What's your connection with my father?" Curious na tanong ni Loki.
Natahimik ito bago nagsalita.
"The Empress didn't tell you everything?"
"She only told me the important details, not everything."
"Very much like her." He shrugged. "I'm one of his colleagues before. We work under the same man. He's probably my favorite despite the fact na sakit siya sa ulo dahil sa sobrang tigas ng ulo niya."
"He's your favorite?" Napatabingi ang ulo ni Loki. "Why?"
"Well, he's the only one who can last long with me in a conversation. He's the only person who can keep up with me on a certain topic." He smiled proudly. "He's my greatest client. A man with talent who can use my inventions perfectly."
"Your inventions?"
"I am an inventor, sir." He placed his left hand on his chest. "I make the guns, he pulls the trigger. He is my greatest partner."
"You make guns?"
Napalitan ang blankong tinig ng boses ni Loki, naging masigla ito when he heard what the man said. He excitedly stared at him.
"And you're interested in them." He hummed. "I had been in distress since he was gone dahil wala nang katulad niya ang kayang gumamit sa mga inventions ko. All of them are clumsy and amateurs. Say, my kind sir. Are you good with guns just like your father? If so, are you interested in becoming my business partner?"
