Chapter Ten: The Last Twins
As expected, all the villagers in the village closest to the oil field fled.
I found a reasonably clean family and put the IUD on their bed.
"He gets into this mess every day, doesn't he find it troublesome at all!" Oni-hime thought to herself as she removed the bullets from his body.
However... back then... I think I was also moved...
This person...is that why Wang Yi is so deeply in love with him?
“Ghost Princess—” Heng seemed to be deep in thought.
"yes!"
"They're coming soon. Do you recognize the scent of these two people nearby?"
The Demon Princess temporarily set aside the bullet she had taken out, closed her eyes, and quietly felt the sensation.
"Hmm, it seems to be the Sonas and Kupat brothers, known as the Last Twins, and rumored to be the strongest among the two-star nobles." Ghost Princess was a little worried. If it was those two, they would be quite troublesome, and the king, who never cared and was always high above, didn't know anything about them.
"What makes them so special? Are they stronger than me?"
Heng read the expected content from the Oni Princess's expression, but the question was still asked with disdain.
“How could that be? No one is stronger than you.” She laughed, but then changed the subject, “Those two may be the strongest fighters among the two-star nobles, but they are not warriors. They are ruthless and cunning in achieving their goals, avoiding direct combat as much as possible, and killing without bloodshed… That’s what they like.”
Therefore, facing someone as powerful as the king, these two shrewd brothers had no reason to launch a suicidal attack...
Moreover, she sensed their faint presence circulating around her... but they weren't moving closer...
"Oni-hime—"
"yes."
"If those two come, can you handle them?"
After thinking for a moment, Oni-hime said, "It's quite strenuous, but if we don't fall for their tricks, it should be fine."
After all, being the second lady-in-waiting after Lord Mo Yin isn't a nice title.
"Alright, from now on, you guard Huan and stay by his side at all times! If those two make any moves, kill them without hesitation!" Heng gave the order.
With Qina handling daily life, Bisso can handle reconnaissance, and the strongest Oni-hime will be in charge of protection... This arrangement should be fine.
And what about you?
She finally realized something was wrong! Protecting the one he loved—wasn't that something the king should do himself? Could there be anything more important than that?
"I'm going to have a serious talk with someone. I don't like being constantly hindered like this! I arranged it like this before I came back," Heng said with a dark face.
If he could, he wouldn't want to take action against Morgan Stanley.
...
“Just as you planned, the king has left.” Sonas put down his binoculars.
"Ah," Cooper responded, not pleased, as it was all expected.
Making his presence both near and far, maintaining a distance that would allow him to be detected, was very risky; he could be killed at any moment by a displeased king. However, he gambled that the king wouldn't come, because even if he killed them, someone else would quickly be sent, which wouldn't solve the problem—something the king was well aware of.
Therefore, Wang went to find the root of the problem—the diversionary tactic was very successful.
“But—” Sonas looked through the binoculars and frowned, “Why is Lady Oni-hime guarding that person?”
Oni-hime? The Second Female Official Oni-hime?
Although he had considered that the king might send someone to protect that person, he never expected it to be her! How interesting, Lady Ghost Princess betrayed Lord Mogin…
"Hmph, I admit she's good. If it were a one-on-one fight, I could only last 20 minutes at most, but if the two of us go at it together, then we should—" Sonas calculated.
"It's no use. The combined strength of the two of us is still slightly inferior to that lord's." Kupat interrupted his delusions.
"But if we add our wisdom..."
"It's no use. Have you forgotten what she's in charge of in the organization?"
The Second Lady, Oni-hime, is not only a miraculous doctor, but also in charge of all intelligence processing within the organization and assassinating traitors within the organization! This woman knows everything about the nobles, and using tricks on her is tantamount to digging your own grave.
...That's why...the king was so at ease entrusting his beloved to her...
It seems that a direct attack won't work.
However, if it's that man, there are other ways.
...
Huan woke up shortly after Heng left.
The intense pain in his shoulder had subsided, and even the scars were less noticeable. He had gradually become accustomed to the Oni Princess's astonishing healing abilities.
"And him?"
His inability to find Heng left him feeling disappointed.
This is the first time—
When he woke up, Heng was not by his side.
"He said he had something important to take care of and would be back soon. Don't worry about him. Bisso and China are safe too, so don't worry."
The Demon Princess's smile looked warm, and even she was secretly surprised; she never knew she could smile like that. The King would surely be pleased to see this.
Huan breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully his reckless behavior hadn't cost anyone their lives.
The innocent laughter of children could be heard from outside.
Looking through the window, he saw that it was Peso playing with him.
Anyway, the wound was fine, so Huan jumped out of bed to find Bisso. When she turned around at the door, she found that Gui Ji was following closely behind.
“Oh, I’m your doctor. I need to stay close to you to prevent the wound from reopening!” she quickly explained.
This kind of irrelevant and lame excuse only works for simple environmental issues. That's enough.
Stay by his side at all times; this is the king's instruction.
"Where's Qina?" He looked around but couldn't find Qina.
“She went to the nearby mountains to find some vegetables. There are no troops on these mountains anymore, so it’s fine,” Peso replied casually.
In this remote mountain village, without even a market, this family is really something else. They're just fleeing, but surely they didn't take all their food with them?
Ghost Princess hesitated for a moment; those two were still nearby! But then she thought, they probably wouldn't be interested in Qina, and killing her would only expose their whereabouts. Besides, she only had the energy to protect Huan right now; she could worry about the others for now.
"You two play with him first, I'll go start the fire!" Bisso suddenly slapped his forehead, realizing he had forgotten Qina's parting instructions.
"Huan, let me change your medicine first." Gui Ji pulled Huan along while patting the child's head. "Be a good boy, little one. I'll come out and keep you company soon."
While they were all leaving the yard, the child sat there alone, playing with the branches on the ground. A dark figure appeared on the roof, leaped down, and grinned triumphantly.
...
"Brother!" The child hugged Huan affectionately as he came out of the house, and even pulled him aside to whisper to him.
"They really have a good relationship," Gui Ji thought, looking at him. "This person is completely different from them. He's so sunny; even children would like him."
"I'm going to sleep," Huan suddenly said to her after listening to the child's whisper, and her expression was also a little off.
She certainly sensed something was off, but what could a child's whispers possibly mean... She really regretted not eavesdropping earlier.
"I'll stay with you!"
She was probably just tired. Whatever happened, as long as she stayed close by, everything would be alright! she told herself.
"Huh?" Even sleeping with you? Huan looked annoyed.
"Do you think I wanted this?" Ghost Princess thought resentfully.
"Ah... well... I need to pee..." Huan rushed towards the makeshift toilet outside the house.
What a hassle!
Ghost Princess simply crossed her arms and waited for him at the door of the room.
Inside the bathroom, Huan's trembling hands slowly touched the note in her hand.
This was given to him by the child. The child said that an uncle had just given it to him to give to Huan, and also to tell him that the beautiful older sister was in their hands, and if anyone else found out, she would be dead...
What exactly happened?!
The note was fully unfolded, and cold sweat broke out on Huan's forehead—
"Qina is in our hands. Don't tell anyone else. Come alone to the woods on the back side of this mountain to the east. If anyone else finds out, this woman will be dead."
Kidnapping!
No, the target is him!
It's because he was always being protected that Qina ended up like this!
It's because of him again!
Huan pounded the wall hard.
...
"ring--"
Ghost Princess stood outside the bathroom shouting.
They've been inside for almost an hour and they still haven't come out! Why are they taking so long!
The two men suddenly vanished, which she didn't see as a good sign. Because—they would never give up; for Noah's people, failure in their mission meant death.
The lack of response from Huan gave her a bad feeling, so she rushed inside—
The ring... has actually disappeared.
...
The mountains to the east...
On the other side of the mountain, their courtyard is no longer visible because it is blocked by the mountain.
Huan was unaware that this meant that Gui Ji and the others could no longer see him.
forest……
Found it!
The trees in this forest look very strange... they must be unique to this country.
Shaking his head... he didn't climb over the wall from the bathroom just to admire the trees!
There seems to be something hanging from a tree not far away...
He moved closer—
It's China!
He could hardly believe his eyes!
Why do I always have to show him such cruel things?
China was hanging naked from a tree, her condition completely undetectable. The white fluid flowing from between her thighs... indicated that she had just been...
"You guessed right again! He really came."
"He's not the kind of person who would disregard the lives of others."
"It must be exhausting for Wang Ke to fall in love with this kind of person."
"..."
Two men, one in black and one in white, appeared under the tree at some unknown time, talking back and forth in words he couldn't quite understand.
But without a doubt—they were the ones who captured China!
"I'm here. Let her go!" Huan tried her best to remain calm.
Even when facing an entire army, he had never felt this terrified. These two people... sent chills down his spine!
“We only said that if you told anyone else, she would die. But I don’t remember saying that if you came, we would let her live. However—” Sonas chuckled, seemingly kicking the tree lightly, but the whole tree trembled, and China seemed to move slightly, “She should still be alive now.”
"If I keep hanging like this, I don't know how much longer I can live."
Before Kupat could finish speaking, he had already swiftly moved over and subdued Huan's body.
"I want to play a little longer, how about it?" Sonas looked him up and down with a lewd gaze, making him feel uncomfortable all over but unable to move.
"Didn't you just play with that?" Kupat glanced at China hanging in the tree, which was his masterpiece.
"That was just the appetizer; this is the main course. He's no ordinary person; I'm really looking forward to it!"
"Okay, I'll wait for you here. Be careful not to hurt yourself."
With a casual push, Kupat sent the ring crashing into Sonas's arms.
Fortunately, they found this forest. The scent of these trees was exactly the opposite of the scent of Noah's people, which completely masked their presence. Even the Ghost Princess would not be able to find them.
...
Huan was awakened by the intense stimulation in her mouth.
It was the white-robed man in front of him who forced the strong liquor into his mouth through lip contact.
Within the limited view, the forest outside the window was still there, but inside was a simple wooden cabin.
She didn't even know when she fainted; she only remembered that he had her under his arm and she had no chance to resist.
On the makeshift bed, Huan stood helplessly.
What is he going to do? Kill him? No, that wouldn't require such a complicated process.
"You're awake? That's great, it wouldn't be fun if you didn't wake up." Sonas smiled maliciously.
"What do you want to do!" Huan began to realize her situation and fiercely wiped her lips where he had touched her.
“Relax. In terms of looks alone, I’m not much worse than the man next to you.” Sonas quickly took off his shirt and moved his face even closer.
Don't come any closer! Huan stepped back, only to find himself bumping into the wall.
He... began to understand what this bastard in front of him was up to...
Absolutely not!
He suddenly stood up, jumped out of bed, and tried to break through the window to escape...
But Sonas grabbed him from behind and ripped off his shirt.
"I advise you not to put up any futile resistance; I don't want to hurt you." Sonas hugged him tightly from behind.
Sonas put him back on the bed and then pressed himself on top of him, groping his naked upper body with one hand and forcibly pulling down his pants with the other.
While he was struggling, several bloody finger marks were accidentally left on the inside of his thigh.
"I told you not to move around, look what happened, you've hurt yourself!"
Sonas stroked the finger marks, clearly dissatisfied with his performance. He then tightened his grip on Sonas's body.
There was no room for struggle; they were completely unable to move.
"No...please..." Huan pleaded.
His body is eternal!
He would rather die than suffer such humiliation!
"Don't want it? Don't you like men?"
"no!"
He just likes Heng!
"Hmph, you'd better behave, or I'll make you very comfortable. Don't ask for trouble. If you're not one of the king's people, I have no interest in you," Sonas said through gritted teeth.
The King's man! If it weren't for this person, the King wouldn't have betrayed Noah! If it weren't for this person, Lord Moyin wouldn't have been abandoned, and he wouldn't have driven his brothers to this point!
"The king's men?" Huan was taken aback.
"Don't tell me you don't know the man beside you is King Noah!"
King Noah...
Are you referring to Heng?
Heng is Noah's King!
All we know is that he's Noah's man, but is he truly the king? Then, what about everything that's happened recently...?
"How obtuse!" Sonas finally realized; he really didn't know!
But he had no interest in telling this man his family history at this moment… What he wanted was… to savor the taste of the king's lover! Since he was going to betray the king, he might as well betray him completely! Anyway, there was no turning back!
"No...please...kill me..."
Seeing the painful groans emanating from beneath him, Sonas's body began to stir with excitement, and his movements became even more intense.
