I'll bring you the key to your door, take this as a gift

They arrived near the borders and saw one of the young spies was being chased by bandits of the other Kingdom, let all just say horses were running everywhere, it was pure chaos

"Block the way to the village, those bandits are not allowed to cross the line. Jayden, come with me." Minho got on his horse again as he rides it quick while preparing his arrow to chase the bandits.

Jayden followed along and ordered his men to help the prince. Minho took the other way around and kept on guiding his horse to run faster, as he was now approaching the unrecognized spy's horse.

"Run that horse faster!" he yelled at the spy and the startled man immediately ride his horse faster, making Minho drag his sword out and raised it up for the bandits to notice.

He blocked them in a sudden and pointed his shining golden sword towards them.

"Stop in the name of the King!" he shouted and all horses stopped with the bandits stopping as well.

"And who must this be?" one of them shouted at him.

Minho removed his mask and hood of his robe revealing the Royal Symbol. He hopped out of the horse.

"The heir of the throne you are threatening, the Prince Lee Rino. What were all of you thinking and chasing one of our spies? Considering you are all bandits from another Kingdom, you aren't welcome in this territory nor to your land." Minho hissed with his sword, aiming and pointing at them.

"Your spy has crossed the line, and he shouldn't be in our territory as well in the first place. We have coordination with one of the Eunuch in your palace, we can talk this out and hand us the boy." their leader spoke.

Minho sarcastically laughed and looked at them.

"No, thanks... I'm not gonna take it easy on you or your men." Minho shoots his arrow at a horse who had a huge pile of bags.

All of a sudden, clashing bags of coins were dropped from the horse since it reacted to the arrow. Minho smirked and looked at the leader.

"Stealing from the treasury of your dear Kingdom? I don't think that innocent boy is safe anywhere especially if your intentions here in our Kingdom is to steal some more." his face turned dark as he faced his men.

"Arrest them, make their leader sing on whoever their connection is pointing at, and inform King Choi about this betrayal of his trusty right hand." Minho ordered and they quickly obeyed.

"Take the boy to the palace and treat his wounds." Minho ordered again and saw that the injured spy was talking to Jayden.

Minho hops on his horse again and goes back to the palace.

Minho stares at the young boy in front of him, his wound was being treated by servants he ordered for them to help the young boy.

For a boy like him, he seems pretty young to be a spy, too young...

He waited for the servants to finish treating the boy up and serve him some food to eat. As he can tell, the boy was really hungry, but also an alluring sight to Minho, making him chuckle. The boy paused on what he was doing and looked to the prince.

"Your highness, is there something I can help you with your thoughts?" the young boy asked, Minho smiled and just shook his head.

"No, it's just that I am pretty impressed by how adorable you look eating your meal. That's quite a big bite you got there." Minho answered.
