Jongin panted as he slid his sword through another one of the elfs, falling to one of his knees as the other leg had been wounded badly.

He was exhausted, he didnt know how much longer he could go killing them. It seemed like they didnt stop, he battled with himself about staying to search for kyungsoo or to follow the others to make sure his uncle, the king would be save.

Because that's what they're after, they want to kill the king and overtake the castle.

But he couldnt leave to join the guards protecting his uncle, because he knew compared to him kyungsoo had no one to protect him but jongin at the moment.

He inhaled deeply to exhaled again steadying himself on his sword when he got back up readying it in his hold while he walked forward with a fierce expression, sweat tickling down his temple from both the exercise and the pain.

He stepped back cautiously as another elf came from around the corner swinging his sword but jongin blocked it easily turning skillfully to make him stumble to the side trying to swing from underneath but even then the prince had seen it coming blocking it quieckly to give himself a free opening, through where he stabbed the men into his chest.

Pulling the sword out, jongin stumbled back and the men fell to the ground coughing as he gasped holding his wounded spot. The prince blinked hesitantly before he quieckly swung his sword cutting his throat and ending the misery.

Some of these were horrible fighters, they could've been villagers who had just learned how to properly hold a sword moments before they attacked.
While others seemed as good of fighters as his personal knights.
Here aswell as back at his parents kingdom.

It was weird.

,, you're highness !" A breathless, wheezing maid appeard running toward him from behind as she clung to his arm.
,, it-the boy ..  the .. he save me please, sire ! "

,, what ? You should go out run to the-" he turned to her holding her hand in attempt to calm her but she just shock her head upset, tears streaming down her face and her sobbing was making it hard for her to talk properly ,, no .. no he needs help! He tried to make him talk but he didnt and now he... oh god hes going to kill him "

,, who ? Where ?"
Jongins frown hardened when he looked at her expectantly, hoping it wasnt him but at the same time hoping it was because then he wouldve found him and could save him.
,, who !?"

She swallowed ,, the servant.. the servant boy, the boy."

,, kyungsoo " he stared at her not waiting for her to say it as he already saw how she was going to nodd and he held her by her shoulders wide eyed.
,, where !?"

She pointed down the hallway
,, in a room, he took him.-"
,, get to the courtyard and search for the guards they will lead you to safety" he ordered already starting to run off into that direction the best he could with his wounded leg.

He hurried holding himself on the wall now and then when he bursted into the rooms searching him.

If he would be too late, he could never forgive himself. They better not have hurt him. Jongin was sure he would have them beheaded and fed to the dogs if they did.

He was panicking in worry when he kept going from door to door but couldnt find them. He encountered many more but he was glad to be lucky enough that he only had to deal with the ones who werent very good at fighting.
