Chapter #19: The aftermath

Third Person POV

After the bandits left the battlefield, Kouka's troops were able to push back Li Hazara and his troops until they eventually had to retreat. King Soo won and the two generals returned to Hiryuu Castle with their troops to announce their successful plan to defend Kouka.

After the rebellion of the fire tribe against the other tribes and Hiryuu castle, Kouka was left with many unanswered questions. Why did Kan Soo-Jin rebel against the rest of Kouka? What was his motive? Those are questions only Soo-Jin himself can answer, but that didn't stop many from thinking about it. Was it money, power, belief? Only Li Hazara and the people close to Soo-Jin may ever know.

But who was going to receive punishment?

A few days after Kouka's victory, King Soo won visited Sen province Li Hazara to discuss a possible peace. Under three conditions, one of them being that Kai wouldn't attack Kouka under any circumstances, King Soo won promised to sweep the matter under the carpet.

Another few days later, King Soo won arrived at the fire tribe. There, he talked to Kyoga, the older son of Kan Soo-Jin.

"King Soo won, the fire tribe is a traitorous alliance to Hiryuu castle. Father's beliefs about him being King Hiryuu clouded his mind, and finally led him to betray you. I beg of you, please punish me in place of my father. Do anything you want to me, but please do not hurt my mother or my younger brother, Kan Tae-Jun" Kyoga asked on his knees. The only ones in the large room were him, Soo won, Joo doh, Guen-Tae and some guards who bowed next to Kyoga. Soo won listened closely to his statement. He finally came up with a good idea.

"Your actions are not your father's. I've seen you train the troops, you are very skilled. And from what I know, you did not know about your father's plans, correct?" Soo won asks Kyoga.

"Yes, I did not know about his betrayal. I can guess that Tae-Jun did not know about it either" Kyoga explains. Soo won nods slowly and smiles.

"Kyoga, I hear by give you the title and authority as the general of the fire tribe. You will guide the fire tribe to a brighter future and prove that your are no traitor"

Kyoga gasps and gets up from the floor.

"K-King Soo won, you can not do that! I couldn't possibly be a general! Not after what father did..."

"I believe you are worthy of being a general.  You can make the fire tribe a trustworthy tribe again. Your brother is already making a difference from what I have heard" Soo won explains.

"What?! Tae-Jun is...?"

"I've heard that he is helping the starving villages outside the capital. Let us go visit him"

Aria POV

After the war, I decided to go with Yoon and Zeno to say hi and help Tae-Jun in the village is supposed to be in.

"Tae-Jun!" I shout at the familiar man, who instinctively turns around to look at me. I see his face light up and he jogs up to me. We greet each other until he notices my roughly bandaged foot.

"Aria, what happened to your foot?" He asked me.

"It's fine, I just kicked a soldier. Anyway, we came here to help you" I said and picked up a pile of laundry that was just waiting to be washed. Yoon went up to some villagers and gave them some medicine while Zeno entertained the children. He had told me that his dragon powers didn't make him strong like Kija or Jea-ha and he didn't know how to treat people's injuries like Yoon, but he can definitely cheer people up and make them happy.

While me and Tae-Jun walked around and helped some soldiers with the village, we talked about what had happened. I didn't tell him about his father's betrayal. I'm in no position to tell him that.

He told me that he took some soldiers from the castle to help him. They built a local hospital and hired doctors from the capital. I told him I was proud of him and he blushed. Then, I spotted people walking into the village and I gasped, making Tae-Jun look at where I was looking. He also gasped and started walking up to the visitors.

Oh my god

I walked up behind Tae-Jun and faced our guests, who were as surprised to see me as I was to see them. Well, at least two of them.

Soo won and Joo doh

——————————————————-

So I have ordered three different manga volumes to try out! I remember that one was called Kirarin Revolution or something like that, one was called fruit basket and one was called Sugar Sugar Rune.

I've heard of all of them before and I actually watched like one episode of the fruit basket anime, but for some reason I didn't continue it. I think I will after I read the manga though!

I also heard about Kirarin Revolution but I never watched it, and I saw Sugar Sugar Rune in a second hand store. However, it was translated to Swedish and it was the fifth volume, so I didn't get it. I regret it now though since it was only like a dollar lol

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the chapter ;)
