Prince's Sleep | Taegyu ✔︎

•Chapter XX:Fighting against the evil part II•

What?

Soobin couldn't believe what he heard from the witch.First,he paralyzed him to kill his best friend,and second,she tried to kill him too,and now,all of these things happened,just to make him realise that the witch needs him.

The servant thought that was absurd.Who would do that?But Soobin knowed that he couldn't accept.If he did,the witch would surely kill his friends,even himself.

Plus,they needed to hurry.Beomgyu will die soon,and the king will be terrorized if the prince wouldn't wake up.

The group got here to take a rare flower called 'The Ice Rose',who could save him from the fulfilled curse,and sadly,they got caught by the witch.

A powerful blow woke the servant from his thoughts.He got back to reality,with the sharp blade in his hands,straightened it towards the witch.Taehyun couldn't help but look at the scene exhausted and terrified.

"I am not going to ask you twice."The witch's raspy voice spoke."Answer my question!"

Soobin furrowed his brows and clenched his fist, and the arm who was having the sword.He took a deep breath,making himself think freely and calmly.

"You can ask me that question a million times."The servant's voice got coldly."But how hard you will try,I promise,I will never try to get by your side!"

Clenching his teeth,with a fast move,the blade moved fast against the witch body.She gasped,almost got stabbed by the servant.

"How could you?!"

Suddenly,Taehyun's eyes were glued outside of the window.The weather felt like going even chaotic,spreading rafals of snow everywhere around.
He took his glare away, and he fixed it on Soobin's fighting moves.

The servant was moving fast and chaotic.It feels like the prince could smell the mix of emotion based on fear and anger that paralyzed Soobin's body.The witch was fighting against too,trying to avoid Soobin's sharp blade.Taehyun hopes that Soobin wouldn't spiralate out of control again because of anger.The servant needed to remain calm to escape from that situation.

Taehyun couldn't help him anymore.The pain from his leg, his respective arm was too brutal to let the prince him move even a little.But he tried to pull himself on the floor,trying to pick a shield that fallen from a knight armor.

Soobin was scoffing at every time he got the blade closer to the enemy.But how many times he tried to stab her,he remains only with wounds that caused because of the witch's magic.His instinct said to hurry,because time was getting limited,but how could he,when the enemy was dragging him deeper into a close fight?
Pulling energy and breathing heavily,he again headed the sword blade towards the enemy.

I got it!

Taehyun picked the shield up and dragged it after himself.Soobin couldn't fight if his moves were slowed down by the witches' magic.Even with his injury,he needed to believe in the servant that he will do what it was right.

Getting closer to Soobin to get sure that the servant will hear him clearly,he pushed the heavy shield towards Soobin's foot,shouting.

"Take that!"

Soobin widened his eyes and quickly moved his glare towards his foots.A shield was lying on the ground.The servant got closer and rapidly picked the heavy object up.And at the last second when the witch was ready to stab him with the Ice,he putted the shield in front of him,protecting himself.

The witch was extremely angry,realising that the servant would win the fight.She would not let him win.Shouting,Ice started to spread everywhere in the room's palace.Soobin instinctively prepared for the action and protected himself again with the shield.

Breathing for air and straightening his position on the chair,shouting loudly,he tried again to stab the blade into the enemy stomach.But the witch avoided it many times, and he tried to do it.

It feels like this will never end...

Suddenly,the servant couldn't spot the enemy in front of him.Something must be wrong.Moving his eyes behind,he could easily spot that the witch was trying to stab him with a knife.
Taehyun saw the action with his jaw dropped.

I can't let this happen.I need to save him!

Struggling to get up,he picked the knife that Soobin tried to kill him and approached the witch slowly,not to get caught.The prince needed to help the servant,if not,he will surely die.

Soobin was ready to continue the fight,but with the witch behind him,a single move could destroy everything.A laught could be heard in the background.

"How silly of you... trying to kill me... Do you really hope that you can break the curse and save the Kingdom?"A raspy voice talk behind the servant,making him flinch.

"Well,for now, I will tell you that it doesn't work..."

Soobin breathed heavily as he heard the witch continue to speak with her squeaky voice.He didn't dare to move a finger,knowing that the witch was controlling him.

"I am sorry that it wouldn't be a happy ending for you!"

The witch shouted as leaning the knife blade towards Soobin's torso.But the witch couldn't finish her move because of a hard pain that could be felt in her stomach.Someone stabbed her with something.

"I will not let you...to kill...my friend..."

Taehyun's voice tone was cold as the enemy turned to visualize who was the one who stabbed her.

"You..."

The witch's words fade away as Soobin approached the blade towards her neck and cutted her head of.The head rolled from her neck and falled on the ground.The servant looked at the enemy with non expressions on his face.

He moved his glare to the prince, who was losing his balance.Soobin saw it and fastly moved and picked Taehyun,putting him slowly on the ground,whispering a 'thank you'.

Of course,he knowed that Taehyun hadn't died but was feeling tired from the hardly moves.

Fixing his glare towards the sky,Soobin realised that the wind had stopped to blow,and the sky was getting sunny.Looking at the enemy,it started to slowly to dissappear without any other signs that she will come back.

The witch is gone...
