The Strongest Primordial System

Chapter 15 - Story of the young prince

"My name is Inouye Yuji I'm the 7th prince of from the middle sized kingdom called Karia kingdom." "I have six other brothers and 4 sisters." "You may know this but the king is known for his great deeds helping his people and has always their best interest in heart even at the cost of children."

"This has led many of his children to hate him."

"But as he see it…. "

Alex decided to stop his story to ask an important question.

"So what do you think of your father the king "

A little surprised by the direct question he paused and had an unreadable expression.

"My father may be a great king but he isn't a good father."

"He has never done any bad deeds towards any of us, just neglected being there as a father." "Saying and knowing this deep within my heart I can't hate him or loath him."

"If you don't mind me asking Yuji"

"Your mother the queen what is she like?"

"My mother well she is a kind woman to us and has always been there for all of us, sadly has a deeper hatred towards the king then most of his children"

"Do you know why she hates him more than others?"

"No I do not"

"I see"

"So why are you here?"

"I'm here to prove myself to be the rightful king by winning or at least rank high in the tournament "

"Unfortunately one of my siblings must have tracked me and hired an assassin to kill me" "By luck or skill I have hidden my cultivation and strong spirit root, leading me to in the end to survive the attack but at the last moment the assassin used a underhanded tactic and poison me" "This poison is ruthless, it will destroy the organs in the end and before that eat away your spirit root and Dantian" "worst is that from what I know and many experts in the field there isn't any cure"

"So what is the so called poison called?"

Looking in to the mask of Alex with an expression of slight pain and despair on the prince face he answered.

"Blood of the demon "

Alex became silent for a while and after a small pause he remember that that this poison was an incredible low grade one in his eyes. This small wait for the prince was just a reminder that his last hope was gone. He had gotten a small glimmer of hope from the pill he got from Alex before. The pill had erased the poison from his muscles in the arms, therefore a small flame hope has been lit. He knew though the true essence of the poison was located in his heart and brain, so even if arms where cured it could mean nothing when it faces where the most concentration where laid.

The kingdom he hailed from was as far north you could go in this continent and by travel by normal means it would take half a year and with the fastest it would take 2-3 month. So reporting his condition to the king and finding out who did this to him, before he died was impossible.

"So with short time left prince, what will you do?"

After the explanation from the prince on what we already know he finally said "what I can do now is to at least make a name for myself and send a letter to my father in the end."

"I'm not asking this to be cruel but if by the heavens you receive a miracle and receive a cure, what would you do too the person that tried to kill you?"

"I...I...."

After fumbling with his word due to what Alex said for a while he finally managed to put forth his real feeling and thoughts.

"I will not kill the person or take revenge but I will make damn sure he or she won't escape from the truth coming out"

"Even so if it turns out to be your mother the queen?" Alex asked

"Yes, but if that's the case I want to hear it from her personally before the truth is out to everyone" "well the king will of course know beforehand as a precaution"

"You seem like an honest, straight and most important clever person"

"This is one of many reasons I will help you"

"What do you mean help me?"

"I will cure you of course, but I will hold you to your words no killing, no revenge and last that you will do everything to make the evil schemer pay for it in the end by righteous means" "It may sound cruel of me to say this also, If you break your word I will insure myself that the perpetrated will see justice"

"So what say you prince "

"Well I want to agree but there are a lot of things I need to be sure of"

"Who are you?" "What are the other reasons that make you willing to help me?"

"How I am sure that you won't be swayed later down the line?"" Can I even trust you now" "and last even if you do this, what do you want in return?"

"Prince as for now I can be described as a truly a nobody with a big dream" "I'm helping you because of two reasons" "one is I hate what has been done to you" "second is that I still feel guilty of what happened before" "about the faith of trust that you're asking for I can't prove it right now but you will be able to see it with your own eyes during this tournament." "I'm sure you think there isn't free lunch in this world prince but that doesn't always apply to me, as all I want is to correct a wrong in the world and a mistake."

"What say you prince?"
