Chapter 127 - 127 Justice and Henry



“What are you going to do?” Asked Jason to his brother. There was tension on Justice’s face, he tried to think of a good answer for his brother, but then, Jason release his hold from Justice’s arm and said, “You know what, never mind, you have a lot on your plate right now.”

He let go of his brother and remained in Justice’s study room, while Justice roamed around the third floor like a lizard losing its tail. Bernard looks at him and was curious about his nervousness.

“Your majesty, I thought you were reviewing the documents. What are you doing outside?” Bernard asked Justice with a frown on his face. He had just arrived from training the new guards in the palace.

“Ah, you’re back, no… I was… Never mind,” Justice was adamant to say a word to his chief guard, instead, he asked him another question, “Bernard, is it possible for me to join you tomorrow for the field training?”

Bernard took a hard stare at Justice. “Do you want to join me for a week? To train the newbie guards in the north forest?” He cast a doubt on his face, “Really?!”

“Yes! Was it so hard for you to accept that I sometimes enjoyed practicing with the guards?” Justice glared at his chief guard.

“But, your majesty, you never join a field training with the new guards?!” Bernard stated the fact with a face that couldn’t even accept his fate to babysit the crown prince in the field training for a week, “But, we don’t have the accommodation for…”

Justice, with a fake smile on his face, put his hands on Bernard’s shoulder. “Good! Now arrange everything for me. I’ll be ready first thing in the morning.”

.....

Before Bernard could even muster a rejection or even any word, Justice said his goodbye and go back to his study. At least he got a week to avoid Anne and think of something. He let out a sigh, and sit on his study the shining blue sky and the mild breeze entice him to shut his eyes for a while. Justice always remembers the day Anne told the four of them about her identity.

She smile so beautifully and there was a pang of sadness on her face, “I want all of you to drink the cure and move on with your life.”

“What?! We should drink the cure, but we will never give up on you.” Xavier practically screamed at Anne.

Anne shook her head. “No, I don’t want all of you to do that, drink the cure and move on.”

Vale, the quiet one and the thinker of the four of them, confront her and demanded, answered, “Give us the valid reason you don’t want us to pursue your feelings anymore? Or we would never agree on drinking the cure.”

Anne took a deep breath. The words that she gave to them afterward will give a huge rift between her and the four of them. “Because I’m a stranger in this world, I would never qualify to become someone here. Seven years ago, Ed and Martha found me on the river and took me as their daughter, despite knowing I’m a woman from another world.”

The four men were in shock. Henry bit his lips and with a wave of swollen anger, he asked Anne, “A woman? What did you mean?”

“I was a forty-year-old woman in my old world, and when I got thrown here, I reversed back into the age of a ten-year-old.” She had said everything about her, and it makes her feel the weight finally being released from her, “That’s why I don’t have any magica, I got thrown here by some kind of force and living my life as the adopted daughter of Ed and Martha.”

“So… What about your name, was it really Anne? and how long were you going to keep this a secret from us?!” Justice felt so deceived, he was angry but he also thought he need to find more reason, feels like he tried to justify her lies and deception.

“Yes, that was my name, and… I don’t think I need to explain more than I already have.” She turned her head to avoid the four of them, tears already running down from her eyes.

“That’s not fair. You know everything about us, but you!” Her betrayal in Henry’s mind was unacceptable and, of course, he need to know more about the story.

Sighing, Anne walks to the front door of the tent. “Yes, That was all the explanation that you need to know from me. Please respect my decision.” She took her mourning hat and open the tent. Before she goes outside, she looks at the four of them, one by one, “I want all of you to drink the cure, and forget about me. Goodbye.”

Justice and his heartbreak, but also with unanswered questions. He was blaming Anne, but it doesn’t mean he was angry and furious at her. For him, Anne was evolving in his heart, from a blind obsession and now a mystery with a thorn in his heart. He smiles and goes back to his duty, thinking of the best way to release his frustration towards the new recruits.

Meanwhile, Henry was in trouble on his own, they decide to rest for the long way tomorrow, as the captain that being held accountable for Anne’s safety until they reached the capital. Although Anne felt she doesn’t need anyone to guard her, as she has one of the strongest familiars now. Henry actually agrees wholeheartedly, he saw Chikara when Anne asked him to join them for a lunch. The humongous body of the demon cat with black and fluffy fur came out from Anne’s shadow. Chikara looks at him and hissed immediately, two years have gone by, seems the hatred has never gone.

Horden took the initiative to book the room while he sat with Anne. David already went back to Merlinni town. He said that his duty was not over yet. Henry thought that he just wanted to avoid the bloodshed between him and Anne. For two days, the only thing that he and Anne were doing was throwing shade at each other. Horden and David even needed to give them a separate floor room until the bicker turned into a silent treatment to each other.

They waited while avoiding talking to each other. Henry basically refused to look at her even for a second, while Anne didn’t even want to talk to him. They were so close, but the distance between them feel so far away. Anne sometimes took a glance at Henry. His face rarely smiled, unlike his old self, but the beauty still remained there. The charming young man with blue eyes makes every woman felt hypnotize by it, into a cold fa?ade of a beautiful man that gave the woman a cold treatment with his piercing blue eyes and now long platinum blonde hair, making his appearance more dangerous but alluring.

Horden came back with a disheartened look on his face.

“What happened?” Asked Henry to his grandfather.

“I look everywhere, but there was no room available in this town.” Horden felt a bit worried now. They need to take some rest before going back to the capital. The guards reported that there was a sight of the dark and mischievous road on the road to the capital.

“How about asking for a room in the barrack?” Said Anne to Horden, she then added some explanation, “Sometimes, on my journey, when there was no inn available, I asked the administrative office for a room.”

After hearing how Anne explained about the room on the barrack, Horden’s face went lit like the orb’s light, “Oh, I forgot about those rules, you’re absolutely right, Anne!” He looks at the two of them and forces Henry and Anne to go together to the administrative office for a room.

Anne and Henry reluctantly joined Horden. They tried to distance themselves from each other. Horden could feel the rift between them, it saddened him, and to make matter worse, he never knew the reason for their broken relationship.

The administrative office in this town is just a two-story building with three women and ten men doing all the job, with three chiefs as their guidance. One of the ladies came to them. Her eyes never go away from Henry, while the latter just leans on the wall looking around the office.

“How may I help you?” Asked the administrator to Henry.

Horden answered the lady because waiting for his grandson to answer would be a futile attempt, “Ah miss, the two of them civil servants that need a room on the barrack, since all the inns were fully booked.” He then gave her Anne’s badge as proof.

“Wait, I need the gentleman’s badge as well.” Said the lady while glancing at Henry.

Henry took a deep breath, and his blue eyes go to the lady. “I’m on my reassignment mission right now. Just search in your document and look into the name Henry Spencer.”

All the people around the room gasped when they heard Henry’s full name. The lady in her panic state just look into the room on the barrack while her face was blushing.

“Oh, my Gods! What should we do?” Muttered the lady towards Horden, “Only one room is available for tonight, sir.”

Henry and Anne shouted at the same time, “What?!”
