Chapter 217 - False Witness

    "Is there a way to leave this place without being found out? I am afraid someone is keeping an eye on me. They might want to steal from me," Dark said.


    Although the two men opposite him seem to be focused on the conversation going on around them, he had a feeling they were watching him. Even if they did not make it so obvious his sixth sense was never wrong.


    So he had booked a room with the intention of leaving. Even if he was just overthinking things it was best to be too careful.


    "Sure," the two ladies have been working in the inn for some time so they had a way to help him out. They help him disguise himself into a servant and then explain a part for him to follow. After which, one of the ladies came out as though she was trying to call for the help of a servant.


    After some time Black followed the opposite side and walked out of the inn without anyone noticing.


    When the two ladies saw he was gone they shared the extra money he gave them and plan to remain in the room for some time in other not to alert whoever was watching him.


    Outside the bar, the nobleman who had angrily left his friends was suddenly blocked by a figure. "If you do not know how to speak in public, you should keep quiet," the figure said.


    When the Nobel man heard this he broke into a cold sweat. He did not expect to have been attacked the minute he stepped out of the bar. Who told him to speak without thinking.


    He did not even have time to respond when he felt a fist on his face. He could not even dodge the next attack in a few breaths he was beaten up so badly. When the prince men who have followed him realized that he was not even skilled he felt angrier and continue to beat him.


    How could a weakly like him have the face to look down on his prince. Perhaps he would have beaten this nobleman to death if he did not see a familiar black shadow sneaking out of the inn.


    When he saw the man''s back he recognized it was Dark, after all, they have been following his back for more than a day, so he could easily recognize him.


    He knew this partner must have lost sight of Dark. "Go back to your friends and apologize. Tell them that you saw a Dark Shadow going East of the inn. If you fail to recount my message I will seek you out and kill you," the man said before letting go of the nobleman in his arm.


    He Immediately started tailing Dark. There was not enough time to go back and call his partner. He just hoped the nobleman will repeat his words. If all things work together his partner will still be in his seat and catch the hidden message.


    Dark was relaxed thinking that he had gotten rid of the men. Even if they were to notice he was gone it will take some time for them to catch up with him.


    Dark was good with his fist but he was certain he might not be a match for both of them. If they were to come one at a time he will be confident in his victory.


    He could not risk being captured. So rather than trying to separate the two and fight. He decided to run away. One must know how to choose his opponent. It was necessary for survival.


    Inside the inn, the nobleman walked in with his head bowed. He felt ashamed. It has only been a few minutes since he left and he appeared beaten up.


    His friends were also surprised to see him like this. Before they could ask him what happened the man open his mouth first and spoke. "I was wrong, the prince of Avalo is very outstanding, while I was outside just now saw a dark Shadow going east of the inn," the nobleman repeated the words he was sent.


    He knew that very few people will dare raise their fists on him. Besides he was afraid that the man would really come back to kill him. His friends were surprised.  This man was very proud and this was the first time he took back his words.


    "Come we will take you home," His friends decided to help him return home. Meanwhile, the other man thought this nobleman was strange. After giving it a thought, he realize that this message was him.


    He immediately got up and left the inn. He knew he needed to hurry up if he will catch up with his partner.


    .....


    Princess Ellen chamber.


    "Will you really not let go of my small mistake,"  princess Ellen asked the prince. She did not know how she was supposed to coax him to forgive her.


    "I will, only if you apologize sincerely," prince Sébastien replied in a firm tone.


    Princess Ellen did not understand in what way her apology did not sound sincere. She was very sincere at that moment. How was she supposed to make him see she was sincere.


    " I am sincere, how else should I act to make you believe me. Do you perhaps want me to knee?" princess Ellen asked. When she was young, lady Regina will often ask her to go on her kneel and apologize to show her sincerity.


    Back then she thought that she was trying to teach her good manners, she only realized that the woman was just punishing her. Kneeling to apologize was not a bad way to show one''s sincerity.


    Thinking this way, she was about to lower herself to her knees when prince Sébastien stopped her he could not bear to see her In that state. Besides he was not necessarily angry, he just wanted to tease her.


    Princess Ellen felt relief, prince Sébastien could no longer continue acting angry so he hugged her. Princess Ellen also hugged him back but before they could feel comfortable in each other arms there was a knock on the door.


    "We should leave first thing in the morning," prince Sébastien felt frustrated about his time with his sunshine being disturbed. He forgot that once he left Bozao he would be busy.


    Princess Ellen was surprised and could only smile helplessly. "Okay," princess Ellen nodded in agreement.


    "Come in," princess Ellen Turned to the door.


    Attendant Tim walked inside and stood by the door. It was as if he was scared that if he took more than a step into the room, he would lose his legs.


    "His majesty asked to see my princess in his study," He said with his head lowered.


    "I will be there shortly," princess Ellen nodded her head. She did not trust this man. He had always followed all the orders of lady Regina in the past


    This man will allow the Queen to twist words and he would bear false witnesses. It was as though he was trying his best to please the Queen. Princess Ellen could not be so sure that this man was not walking with the Queen to trap her.


    "Would you come with me?" she asked prince Sébastien after a short pause.
