Chapter 293: The Damsel And The Knight

Chapter 293 - The Damsel And The Knight

Rhea didn't wait for any one of them to react as she suddenly grabbed one of the spears and used it to cut her arm. Almost immediately blood gushed out of her wound, staining her white long dress. Seeing this, she snorted and run out of the room, pushing one of the guards on her way out.

Her actions were quick and unexpected that it caught everyone off guard, including the head bishop. "What are you waiting for!" he yelled. "After her!"

"DO NOT LET HER OUT OF THIS PALACE!"

"CATCH HER!"

Realizing what she was trying to do, the head bishop shouted.

On the other hand, Rhea clutched her bloody arm as she ran towards the gates. She knew that this place was pretty far from the gates and most people would take a carriage or ride a horse to be able to reach there. However, she had no time for that.

She wasn't actually planning to do this now. She wanted to build more followers. However, that head bishop was actually crazier than she originally thought. He would actually threaten her family just so they could use her.

Well… as much as she wanted to say 'over her dead body,' she wouldn't say that. She doesn't really care much about the Larsen Family. She knew they were awful to her, too. All she cared about was the mission, the quests.

If the Larsens die then… what about her coins?

At this point, all she wanted was the coins and rewards.

Just as she was about to leave the enormous doors of the palace, a powerful hand suddenly pulled her towards another room. She let out a surprised gasp.

"Shhhh…. There are people outside. They are looking for you." Mo Li's voice drifted towards her. She immediately tried to move out of his embrace when she noticed that he was… hugging her body from behind, his hand covering his mouth while the other was gripping her waist. "I will help you." He tightened his hand on her waist. "If you scream now… people will notice."

She struggled. She wanted them to notice! Her goal was to attract as many soldiers as possible and show the church what she could do.

"I will let you go… but you have to promise not to scream. Or they will immediately kill you."

She nodded.

And slowly, he let go of her mouth.

"You're bleeding?" he asked and tried to touch her arm.

"Don't touch me," she hissed. This was on purpose! This was all about her plan!

"Let help you— "

"Fuck, can you just stop?" Surprised at her own words, Rhea widened her eyes and immediately moved away from him. Then, she realized another problem. They are standing in a small space, just enough for two people to stand close to each other. No, this wasn't just close! This space should be enough for one person. And since there were two of them….

She held her breath.

"This is a secret place. A hiding spot." Mo Li said. She couldn't see his face, but he was obviously smiling. She wondered what was making him happy. Was it because he realized that she had been still as a statue while facing him? "Does it hurt?" he asked.

She just shook her head in response. Her adrenaline was still pumping, her senses alert. Right now, she could hear voices of soldiers being directed to find her, followed by the loud footsteps.

She didn't know how many people are looking for her right now.

"What are you doing?" she lifted her head and tried to make out of his expression in the dark. Sadly, she could only see the silhouette of his face and feel his fiery breath against her cheek.

"Saving a damsel In distress?"

"Why?" she asked.

"Because that's what knights do. Knights in shining armor."

She thought she heard him chuckle. "Stop joking around. This is not a laughing matter. If they knew that you— "

"I am coming with you."

"Excuse me?"

"You heard me."

"Why would you come with me?"For some reason, every time she encountered this guy, her real self, Lily's self, would come out. She hated it. However, she figured it was because of his good looks. After all, she is a woman who would appreciate some eye candy around her.

She thought it was because he was a good-looking knight.

"Because I am your knight in shining armor."

She rolled her eyes. This guy…

She couldn't figure him out. However, she didn't lower her guard. One wrong move, and she would use the knife in her space to kill him, stabbed it in his heart, and end his life.

"What are you thinking?" he asked. "Are you scared?"

"I'm thinking of killing you."

"…"

"Are you laughing?" She could feel him trembling, trying to hide the fact that he was… giggling?

"You want to kill me?"

"To silence you."

"Fierce," he commented. "But… can you kill me?"

"Why not?" she asked. "Will you just stop asking questions?"

He chuckled. "Alright… how about I take you out of this place?"

"And bring me to the head bishop?"

"No, bring you out."

"I don't believe you," she said.

"Why not?"

"Why would I believe someone I just met? Saving me wouldn't help you. " This man should be tricking her. "As the captain of the first order, the highest and strongest knight in the Country, would you help someone like me?"That just doesn't make sense at all.

"I thought I clarified that I was saving you because I like you?"

"Excuse me?" Anger almost exploded inside her. This man… "We are in a serious situation!"

"I am in a very serious situation." He agreed, rendering her speechless.

"Can you just— "

"Do you think I would just save anyone I don't like?"

She squinted at him. She doesn't really know if the guy just wanted to bring her back to the head bishop.

"Come on. I know you have ways to fight. Why don't you just kill me if you realized that I am tricking you?"

She snorted as a dagger suddenly appeared in her hand. She put the blade against his neck and said, "One wrong move… and you die. Do you understand that?" she asked.
