Chapter 108
110 It 's tto go back Ethan was camping in the Xein forest, he had been looking for Sophia in all the nearby
towns for several days, but none of them gave him any information about her, it was as if she had disappeared,
sometimes he wondered if it had all been an illusion, if that woman he had seen weeks ago was really Sophia or
if She was just someone who looked like her, if only he had confused her because of his eagerness to see her
again.
It had been 20 years since he had last seen her, however, he had not lost hope or he did not want to, he wanted
to continue thinking that she was fine.
He needed to think that she was.
When Sophia had left the elven kingdom, the queen had entrusted him with bringing her back, however, he still
had not found her whereabouts, but as a knight he could not fail to comply with the order that had been given to
him, no matter how long it would take him to fulfill it and even if he had not been ordered to, he would have
gone to look for her, because she was someone very dear to him.
Ethan raised his gaze to the sky, the stars were shining brightly, he gave a long sigh.
_Sophia, where are you? Ethan heard someone moving through the trees, he took his dagger and stood on
guard, a tall man, with waist-length brown hair, strong and broad-shouldered, emerged from between the trees.
_Dantriel, what are you doing here? _Long tno see Ethan.
_You still haven't answered my question.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt_The queen has sentto find you, she wants you to chome.
_I' haven't found Princess Sophia yet, | can't go back yet.
_It's been 20 years Ethan, if you still haven't found her, it's because she doesn't want to be found.
_l will not give up, I will not go back to you Dantriel.
_You'll have to cwithDantriel, whether you want to or not.
_You can't force me.
_Of course | can and you know | will, the queen's orders are absolute.
_A few weeks ago | saw Princess Sophia, givea little more time, I'm sure I'll find her, | beg you.
_I'm sorry Ethan, but your tin the human realm is over, you must return home, to your people.
_l can't, I don't plan on returning without Princess Sophia.
_You are a fool.
_And there is something else, | recently found out that humans have reawakened the darkness, they are creating
monsters with it.
Dantriel frowned and asked.
_ Is what you're saying true or is it just a ruse to gain tso you can stay in the human realm to continue
searching for Princess Sophia? _I'm not lying Dantriel, that's what a human from the kingdom of Cosset told me.
_ From the kingdom of Cosset? _That's how it is.
_You have verified the information.
_I haven't done it yet.
_Finding out about the darkness is much more important than finding the princess, don't let your feelings cloud
your judgment.
Ethan didn't answer, he was silent for a moment and then said.
_This is not our war, why should we help them? _If they invade Cosset's kingdom, it will be our war too.
Dantriel was going to put out the fire in the campfire when Ethan stopped him and asked.
_ What do you think you're doing? _We must go to the information guild, we need to know more about the
darkness to return to the kingdom and report it to the queen.
_But.
_After we do that I'll let you stay a little longer looking for Princess Sophia.
_ Do you promise? _Yes, | give you my word.
_Then let's go.
*#x Maya was leaning on the balcony railing, looking at the beautiful starry sky, Cassian went out to the balcony
when he saw that there was still light in Maya's room and when he saw her he asked her.
_ What are you doing? _Nothing.
_ Can't sleep? _No, that's why | went out to enjoy the night, | usually do it whenever | can't sleep, today the sky
looks more beautiful than usual, don't you think? Cassian raised his gaze to the sky, that night the stars
decorated the immense and vast sky and he said to her.
_Yes, today the stars shine beautifully.
_There is a lot of peace, | wonder how long we will be able to enjoy this peace.

_I've never been in a war, what are they like? _It's something you should never see.
_ Is it that bad? _Bad is an understatement, during war the battlefield is the last place a man should go.
_ Will you go to the battlefield when war breaks out? _Yes, although | was far from the soldiers, | am a general,
just like a prince, my duty is to protect my kingdom and encourage our army in the front ranks.
_I thought that because you are a prince you would be exempt from going to the battlefield.
Cassian shook his head.
_King Venobich is a man of great power and his army is not something to be underestimated, if the soldiers do
not see someone from the royal family fighting for the kingdom, many would becdiscouraged and surrender.
_When that happens I'll be worried about you.
_You don't have to be, I'll be fine.
_Even if you tellthat, | can't help but be afraid that something will happen to you on the battlefield, that you
will die.
_l won't die so easily, there are still many things | must do.
