Chapter 23

Chapter 23

Davis and Bowen made their way to the cell where Wagner was kept in .

The formation in that cell was active, that prevented Wagner from being able to use his power . It also made him unable to see what was going on outside .

Davis then saw a circle switch near the cell . He pressed it .

Wagner turned around his face . He saw a small kid with a Prison Guard .

"Heh, don't tell me you brought a brat for me to enjoy?

" He viewed Davis with lascivious eyes .

"Why are you looking at me like that?

" Davis only asked a question . He already made up his mind but he still wanted an impetus .

"Heh, of course, it's to brutally murder and **** you .

" Wagner's breathing hastened .

He was likely thinking of doing that . Davis was disgusted . Wagner didn't care for anything as he was fated to die this month . It didn't matter whether he offended a big person or not, much less a child .

"I understand .

" Davis replied calmly . He then switched off the mechanism .

'You understand?' Bowen was utterly dumbfounded . He couldn't understand where this conversation was headed to .

"Bowen, leave the Prison!

" Davis commanded .

"I can't do that, my Prince .

" Bowen was stunned before he replied calmly .

"You won't listen to my command?

" Davis narrowed his eyes .

"I was told by the Emperor to protect you no matter what happens .

" Bowen shook his head .

"I see, then I will have no choice but to say to my father that you molested me in the Prison .

"

"W . . What!?

" Bowen couldn't believe his ear . 'What kind of words did this 5 year old child utter?' His mind momentarily stopped working .

"I said that I will have no choice but to say that you raped me in the Prison .

"

'That is totally different then what you said before!!' Bowen started sweating heavily .

'Could it be that all the Royal Family members are like this?'

"This . . Prince . . don't make this difficult for me, I was only tasked to protect you in this Prison .

"

"Do you think my father won't act against you? Do you think he will believe your words or mine?

" Davis asked profoundly as if there's an underlying meaning in it .

'What did I do to deserve this? This child is a demon in human form!'

Bowen was on the verge of tears, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry .

"How about this, you're only tasked to protect me right? Go stand guard near the entrance of the Prison . With this you can both protect me and do what I told you right? You think these prisoners who are suppressed by the formation can harm me?

"

"This . . . Alright .

" Bowen considered a moment before yielding .

"Good, and you're not allowed to use your senses on me, you're not allowed to peek either . I will come to you to get food every 4 hours, by this, you can verify my safety every now and then .

"

"Eh? This . . . I understand .

"

What else could he reply? He already accepted his conditions once and it did seem that he was able to protect him through this method . He atleast had the confidence that no matter what happened, he would be able to protect him in the Prison . Only he couldn't understand that why the Prince forbid him from using his soul sense on him . He imagined that it must have to do something with the Royal Family's secret, so he didn't dare to ask .

Bowen then left that part of the corridor and made his way to the entrance of the Prison .

Davis checked his surroundings before summoning his Death Note .

Black aura surrounded him as it changed into a hazy appearance .

A note appeared on his hand . It was pure black in colour at both sides of the note . There wasn't anything written on the cover . He opened the note and turned the pages . It was pure white, without a single speckle of dust .

He pressed the switch again, only to see Wagner moving his right hand up and down .

"Honestly, there's no redemption for a bastard like you .

" Davis wrote his name while he felt disgusted . He'll be sure to give him a worse death .

. . .

3 days later

Davis was still in the Prison, experimenting the Death Note .

In the Royal Castle, Throne Hall .

Logan was seated in his throne while Claire sat beside him, both of their face, looked grave .

The whole Throne room was crowded even though it was 100m long and wide . People were assembled here, ranging from Middle Class positions to High Class position holders in the Royal Palace and the Army .

The atmosphere here was tense . No one dared to utter a word, afraid that they might be cast out or outright killed .

*Crreak*

A sound made from opening the door of the throne hall, was heard . The people shuddered as if it was a crack from the hell .

An old man with a great disposition walked in with great strides . He was covered in a dark blue armor, he held his helmet in his arms . He walked forwards until he was in line with 5 other men who were clad in different wardrobes . He kneeled down with one leg on the floor and clasped his hands .

"Reporting to the Emperor . .

" He took a deep breath .

"The Albert Kingdom which is under our jurisdiction has been conquered by invading forces two days ago . .

" Beads of sweat formed on his face .

"We . . we were unable to defend against the invasion of the combined alliance of the Raven Empire and Tritor Empire!

"

He kowtowed

"We were made to retreat in the face of the giant threat, and I cowardly made the decision for the army to retreat to the Royal Capital . Please let this coward to die a thousand times for this mistake! Your majesty!

" He immediately drew his sword and proceeded to stab it into his heart .

*Bang* A powerful energy came out from nowhere and made the sword fell out of his hand . He stared blankly not knowing who did it .

"It's fine, this Majesty forgives you, Randal .

" Logan replied calmly .

"Instead of making our army die a cruel and meaningless death, you made the right choice by giving the order to tactically retreat to our Royal Capital in exchange for your own reputation .
