RUI POV

・・・・・・

As Mizuki and Akito dragged me along, I watched the whole kingdom get taken away by Royal Guards.

It was a terrifying sight to watch.

And I couldn't even do anything about it. Even though I am a villain, I don't want to hurt anybody I actually care about. All villains know that.

Villain rule number 127 is to never hurt somebody you care about. And here I was, watching my friends get handcuffed and thrown away.

Of course, I was getting death row for all the crimes I've committed in the Royal Kingdom.

Tsukasa talked to Mizuki, Akito and I about it all. What's going to happen after they take over Phoenix Wonderland, in prison everybody and when Tsukasa becomes king.

Mizuki and Akito were obviously happy and fine with the whole thing, but I just listened to them talk about it, trying my best not to start sobbing or yelling at them right then and there.

"Rui, please get in the carriage." I snapped out of my thoughts as I heard Tsukasa speak out to me.

"Oh right, okay then.." Mizuki untied me and I got into one of the many carriages there.

Everybody in the kingdom that didn't manage to flee the place in time was captured and shoved into a carriage and are now being transported to the Royal Kingdom.

Those people who didn't leave include Saki, Emu, Nene, most of the kingdom's population and then me.

Shizuki luckily escaped, which I'm very happy about! At least one of my friends made it.

But.. the rest..

I snapped out of my thoughts once again when I had noticed we finally arrived back at the Royal Kingdom.

I hated it here. I never thought I would return. But here I am.

I wonder how Saki feels about her brother she relied on and cared for just breaking his promise to her. Saki had even promised the whole entirety of Phoenix Wonderland that he would never do such a thing of hurting anybody here.

I bet she feels horrible, I wouldn't be surprised if she decides to put herself in death row along with me.

"Everybody, out." I heard one of the Royal Guards call.

A Royal Guard then grabbed me and threw me out of the carriage and begun tying me up again so I wouldn't escape.

"You don't gotta do this, you know?" I said in a playful tone, one I used to use with Tsukasa, back when nobody would even think of him doing such a thing.

The Royal Guard scoffed before speaking, "shut your trap, kid."

All the Royal Guards were in the 30s-50s so they all sounded so old and aggressive.

I rolled my eyes at him, but he didn't see because he wasn't facing me. "Fine, fine.. just saying!"

I then got led to towards the grand castle.
