Chapter 168 - A Dumb Girl



Abigail pov

"We can never run from what we owe, your highness. Even if you would have been a local person, you would have to bear the brunt of being a commoner, and your family would have been treated ill by the nobles. 

​​

There is no one in this world who is completely free from worries.`` I did not want to sound rude, but there was no one who could get rid of his problem just by changing his life.

"We can only face them and grow strong." I added, as I looked at myself. Have I ever wanted to take a sword in my hands? No! I always wanted a simple married life, but now look at me. I have been training myself to be a killer machine for two lives to save my family and take revenge.

"Why are you so full of anger and pain? Tell me who has hurt you and I promise to take your revenge?"  many emotions passed my eyes, listening to his words. Have I ever been asked that! Many have asked me why I was worried to call my pain as my insecurities. They all thought that I have never suffered pain.

  But this was the first time when someone believed and asked me to take my revenge instead.

"All I need is for you to ascend the throne and get rid of all your enemies, your highness. So that i can live a happy life too.`` I said with a small smile.

"So, you would not be a knight anymore if I ascend the throne?" he asked pensively as if he was not satisfied with the idea.

"Of course not. Then I will spend time leisurely with my family. And maybe marry someone and live a peaceful life.\'\' I replied looking at a distance, thinking if that day would ever come.

"If you want to marry someone, why don\'t you marry me?" he asked, making me stunned but before I could ask what he meant by that. We reached the end of the tunnel and he touched the rock. 

"You did not remember the lock?" I asked as I saw him searching around for the lock, touching every part of the lock.

"Well, I am here after a long time, and in the past a silly girl bullied me to do that herself every time. So, I never opened the lock." he said with a helpless smile, as if he was reminiscing about the past.

I was too dumbfounded by his response. And here I was thinking for a minute that he was a responsible person. Even if he had martial prowess, he was still a womanizer in the end, even from a young age.

"Tsk.. do not tell me you used to bring dumb girls to the secret passages too.\'\' I could not believe that he had shown the secret tunnel of the royal empire to a girl. Even if she was noble. In the end, she was not part of the royal family. What would happen if she was forced to tell others that she would just spill it to show off that she was too close to the crown prince in front of them? 

Listening to my serious words and worried eyes, instead of feeling embarrassed or worried,. The man started laughing like crazy people.

"Are you for real? How could you laugh over this matter, are you not afraid at all that she would spill the secret to someone else?"

  He once again laughed and shook his head. 

"She is too dmb to do that.\'\' His eyes were filled with amusement and all I could do was grit my teeth.

"Your highness, there is a high possiblity that dumb girls spill the secrets easily that clever ones. Why do you take such a big risk?`` I tried my best to warn him, but he was still looking too happy and relaxed as if he had achieved something big by showing it to that girl.

"Trust me, little bird. I am sure she will not do that. In fact, that dumb girl must have forgotten all about this." all i could do was to shake my head over his trust over some random girl.

"She is not any random girl. She is the only girl that I have ever loved." said the man who was always seen with a new girl in public. 

"As you say, your highness." I replied with a defeated tone. There was no way I could win against him when it came to girls. His brain suddenly transfers into his knees when it comes to stunning girls.

"Umm, little bird, would you come here and try to open the lock once?" he said with a sigh as he tried every corner.

I frowned, scene he was not able to do it, how would i be able to do it.

"But.."

"Just once, if it does not work, I will try to light the fire with something and then look at the brightness. But there could be hidden crawlers which may attack in light. Thinking that they were in threat, it might be a problem.`` I sighed and nodded. Why was this man so convincing? He always convinces me of all the foolish things.

"Alright, let me see what I could do here." I replied and he shifted to the side and let me walk closer to the rock.

"I must say that I have never tried something like this in the past. So there are very less chances that i will get success." he smiled and nodded but his face was filled with confidence. As if he was sure that I would be able to do that. And i just shook my head,

But surprisingly when I touched the rock, it felt too familiar and as if my hands knew that way. It moved unconsciously and reached the small pointed mark and I pushed it inside. And in the next second the door opened with a creak and we both stood in front of his room.

"..........."
