Escta jumped back instinctively.
"How do you know that my spirit told me that? I never told anyone.", she asked him, her voice suddenly increased.
"Shhhh", Liu Feng pulled her back. Looking side by side, he saw that everyone was looking at them. He took her by the hand and dragged her to the side.
"How dare you! I will-", she was furious.
"Oh please. Do you really think that those stupid shadow guards of yours even hold a candle to me? This is not the first time I have seen their sorry excuse they call hiding in plain sight.", Liu Feng spat on the ground.
By now, they were in an alley of the city, and no one was near them. All of a sudden, two people, clad in black from head to toe, appeared next to Escta.
"Unhand her immediately.", they said in unison.
Liu Feng looked at them. He sighed as he released his grip of her.
"So then. How about you tell me. What is your relation with the Elvan Royal Family?", he asked her.
Escta sneered. "What do you think you are trying to do? Prove that you are a country bumpkin? I am a princess of Elvan. I AM the royal family."
"Huh?", Liu Feng looked confused.
"Wait. Elvan had another royal child? I thought that there were only two. Wait, you look much older than Al- I mean the crown prince of Elvan.", Liu Feng quickly corrected himself.
"Hehe. You looked at the crown prince once, but you don't even know how many children the Royal King has? You are funny. But that is not my question to answer. The both of you. Apprehend him. He is someone who clearly threatens my safety.", she said with a cold voice.
"I am sorry, Your Highness, but it is not within our ability to apprehend him. He is much more powerful than us. We cannot see through him.", the guard on the right of Escta said.
"What are you talking about? You are contracted Elves who are in the tenth order! You are the best that the kingdom has to offer.", Escta spoke in disbelief.
"I hate to break it to you, dear princess, but there are always taller mountains in the world. Now, I am truly curious. Why did this princess not attend the magic academy of the four kingdoms? Pretty girl wasn't talented enough?", Liu Feng asked with a smile.
"How dare you! I am one of the most talented mages in Elvan. This stupid academy did not even exist when I was studying Magic. Don't you dare speak ill of me.", Escta shot back immediately.
"Well I certainly thought you were cuckoo. I mean, who the hell talks in the public about the spirits? That they can communicate with us? Are you out of your mind? Everyone would riot against Elves if they hear that you have this advantage.", Liu Feng suddenly raised his voice.
"And you care about us Elves so much because?"
Liu Feng looked at the shadow guards. "Are you loyal only to Elvan and no one else?"
"That is a pointless question to ask.", the both of them replied in unison.
"And I am sure that you answer only to the King of Elvan and no one else. Well then. Dear sister in law. The reason that I am so concerned about elves is because I am the to be son in law of the Elvan Royal Family.", Liu Feng said.
"Wait, what?", Escta was taken aback.
"Me, I am Liu Feng. Here, catch this.", he tossed a token towards her. It was not the token of the Crown Prince, but rather that of Dilheim.
"You are indeed the young lord of Dilheim, the rumoured genius that united the three kingdoms in this war.", she muttered.
"And I trust that you will keep my presence in this city a secret? From my father especially. I am here on a purpose, and it was almost ruined by you.", Liu Feng said.
"His Majesty the king of Elvan will be privy to this knowledge immediately.", the shadow guard to the left of Escta said immediately.
"And I am not even asking you to do that. You can tell him that I am here, I do not care about that. In fact, I am sure that he will understand the reason that I am here. All I need to make sure is that he does not tell anyone else that I am here. So then, I must ask of all of you, do not mess with me any further.", Liu Feng said coldly.
Escta felt a chill behind her back as Liu Feng warned her and her shadow guards. Liu Feng was about to leave when Escta pulled up the courage to ask him, "Why did my spirit tell me not to offend you?"
"Because the spirit does not want you to die, and because I am working in their interests.", Liu Feng said.
"And what are you doing, posing as a recruit? You are a crown prince, to my knowledge. Why would you give away the luxurious life and live in these tents? Alderan, as a crown prince, is living in the palace like a king along with my father.", Escta asked.
"I am... making sure that certain pests do not hinder my objective for the near future. And to do that, I must observe them from where they least expect me.", Liu Feng said coldly.
"By pests, do you mean... the nobles?", Escta asked.
"Princess indeed! You are very intelligent. Well, I cannot give you any prizes for it, but I can certainly applaud you in inferring that. Well then, a recruit talking with a princess for so long in an alley is bound to raise some concerns.", Liu Feng paused for a moment.
He raised his fist and punched himself in the nose.
