Chapter 231: Cheat Death (Part 2)
John's perspective
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?". - According to the way Hoster said to me, and the way Sherry and he was dressing. Hmmm... I guess they're in a big trouble
"Stella and that old man have overtaken my throne for a while right now...". "In there, they're having a meeting with officials, talking about the loss of Veta". "Do not step in". - Hoster shortly got his hands away from me
"What?". - My wife was quite bewildered when she heard the news
"The coup occurred for a while, Your Highness". "Both of us managed to get back here without being caught". "So lucky when you two haven't stepped in there". - Sherry spoke to us
"Wait wait wait wait, what?". - Shera was more bewildered
"That means... the excuse for not having enough time to gather the troops to Veta... was from both of 'em?".
"Nod".
"It's not good at all". - My wife later covered her face, worried about her homeland
"Sherry, don't you think it's now the good time to retake it?". - All of sudden, Hoster asked Sherry
"Uhh...". "Your Majesty?".
"My brother-in-law is now in front of us, my little sister too". "Even you're here with me too". "Look, the four of us will surely change the table". "Head in there, and accuse that whore and that old man of stealing my throne". "Sounds good? It's surely gonna work". "Fo-".
"That's bullshit, Your Majesty".
"Huh...?". "You dare to against your King? You think my words are not wise as yours?!". - Hoster approached me, saying a bit loudly as if he was very frustrated
"Your Majesty, low your voice down...". "Shhh...". - Sherry glanced around the hallway and the pillars while reminding Hoster
Despite getting mad at me, Hoster stays silent as he heard Sherry's reminder. Right at this time, my wife holds my hand and shows me to be as worried as Sherry. However... I don't know what they're worried about, it seems invisible.
"What do you mean, Advisor Sherry?". - My wife asked her
"They're holding the meeting in the courtroom". "Guards are now gathering there, very large". "Please keep your voice down, don't wake their alert...". - Sherry glanced around for a few more seconds before returning to look at us
"Your Majesty, please hear me, carefully". - Later she asked Hoster to speak with her
"I know... you're not pleasant to see somehow who's against your words". "But I'll explain to you why it won't work".
To me, honestly Hoster is just an ignorant who wants to make a step to the sky instead of making the long steps. Because of that, his impatient and ignorance always brings trouble to him. However... Hoster is a true tyrant, a ruthless... despite his inexperienced ruling time.
"If we get in there right now, we'll get caught and be executed sooner or later". "Think it carefully, Your Majesty... both of 'em couped us without any struggles, we could've been dead without the Goddess".
"Ummm... what do you mean?". - Shera asked Sherry, I also had that same question
"I'll explain later, Your Highness". - Sherry shortly grabbed Hoster's shoulders, trying to convince him
"From the start, puppets, spies and the clean have been mixed in the Palace". "Those officials, you cannot trust anyone... and their honesty is beyond your control".
