On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Chapter 87: Resolve

Aiden quickly moved Milan and stood in front of her protecting her. He didn't want to bring on any dangers to her and answer the King. 'Whay do you want? Why are you still here?" Aiden asked the third prince, Magus who has returned to them once again. 

"Relax Aiden," Milan said and looked at Magus. He took off his cap and looked at them. He looked heavily tired, upset and embarrassed. "Why are you here? Did you not return back to the Beast Kingdom?" She asked him.

"I did, but I wanted to come see you two," he said. They stood in silence for some minutes.

"Look I know what I have done, I know I should not have killed an innocent human, I feel too bad, i feel very guilty about it, i cannot believe i just did it," he said.

"You should ofocurse realize what you have done and reflect on it Magus," Milan raised her voice a little. 

"Hey, hey, there, now," Aiden tired to calm Milan who was worked up. 

"You know you not only murdered an innocent man but also the most kind hearted, caring very loving  man who was about to become a father, you ruined the lives of two people," she said to him without hesitations nor holding back the words. Her sharp tongue hurt Magus even more. 

"I know I know, that's why I couldn't return peacefully and wanted to come see you twice here, am sorry, I am so so so sorry, am so sorry I did that. I cannot believe I still do not have control over me when I shape shift into my original form. And I am hurt here more than anybody," 

"Magus," Aiden called him, trying to stop him. 

"Yes I know the mistake I have committed here, i know the consequences well, i am willing to take them, please don't think i did it purposefully,  it was not intentional from my part.  I really am sorry," he said with his heads down, looking down at the road feeling painful and regretful, having no confidence to look at the face of the two standing before him.

"It's alright, whatever happened has happened and gone, we cannot turn them back and humans do not have such special abilities like we do to get back to life, I have taken care of Aizen already,  you don't have to worry about it, " Aiden informed him.

"What did you do?" Magus asked curiously. 

"The world never had Aizen in this period of time, people who were connected to him will not remember him," 

"He did not deserve that, " Milan said. 

Am so sorry again, I was just trying to save my wife's life. She was sent to human Realm to learn live's and reflect up on her mistakes as a human. But instead she chose to fall asleep inside an human and complete her trial tricking us, if King finds it out she could have been in big trouble, I just wanted to stop that. I only wanted to scare that girl, but he interfered and my rage did that to him," Magus explained them everything he wanted to say.

"We get it, we get it Magus, a slip caused a huge trouble, you must learn to control yourself soon, or it will always be a danger to people around you when you shape shift," Aiden advised the third prince of the Beast Kingdom. 

"By the way, why are you guys here?" Magus asked what he wondered about. He could not understand why they were there, nor how they ended up at the flat and how they developed relation and got acquainted with that male and female.

"We are here on a business regarding the Water Realm Magus," Aiden covered up. "And besides, Milan has been in seclusion ever since you know..." 

"I know I can understand, Beast Kingdom also mourned for the late Crown Princess Aqua. Beast Kingdom will always be indebted to Her for curing my brother,  Our crown prince in the Kingdom. If not for her, anything could have happened to him," Magus went on. " I still remember how we used to play around the Water Palace when we were young though the princess had very strict schedules with classes and training,"

"I remember, I was one among you all while we played, Milan would always stay away from us," Aiden recalled some memories from his past. 

"Yes," Magus said. "By the way, did you hear about the new rumour spreading like fire,"

"What rumour is that?" Milan asked him. 

"Rumours about the return of the legendary Demon King, " Magus told them.

"What???????" Aiden and Milan asked in one voice together. They felt glad to have synced in their dram, pretending to not know about Huo at all.

'Yes, people say that the nature has started indicating the return. His star is back and fhe ministers and wizards are wondering what would happen this time, the star kingdom is yet to confirm the news, but Emperor Tai has appointed The Empress to find the star and see if he is back since she is the star princess, they still have not found anything related to it," Milan pretended really well and acted as if she is shocked to know about it while Aiden started talking to Magus.

"We must be careful about what we utter  Magus remember do not tell this to others like you told us okay? We cannot say how people will take the news and with what eyes people will see you if you go around saying this," Aiden advised him. 

"You are right Grand Prince Aiden," he agreed with Aiden. "Alright then, I will the two of you here, goodbye," he said. 

"Remember  to meet you father and explain the truth, do not worry about what the detention could be," Aiden repeated again and again. Magus thus took off. Aiden looked at Milan who took a deep breath. 

"The rumours about Huo is spreading like fire and while we have him in our place being treated for his sickness, what an ironic situation, " she said and sighed. But Aiden's thoughts were on Aizen. He didn't even get to meet and greet Aizen and when he was about to, Aizen's life ended unexpectedly and unfairly. He felt bad but more than that he felt awkward to think that he has one mortal half brother who have the power to reincarnate numerous times and live his life on earth through different times. He wondered about what Milan said to him, how similar he was to Aiden, he wanted to see that himself. Aiden tried to keep his thoughts away and asked Milan to take care of Fairya. He decided to take off and return back to the palace to check what could have happened during his absence.

Aiden apparated back to Water Realm and walked straight to the court to take part in the meeting. 

"Where were you Grand Prince?  we have been waiting for you,' An old minister said as Aiden entered the court. 

"What happened? Why?" He asked looking at all the gloomy faces. 

"Aiden am leaving the court to Adrien and Krystal for sometime to be acting Queen and King of the Water Realm for few months," King Aenon said. "I have declared it to them, but they want you to be on the throne, " 

Aiden then quickly spoke to the elders. "With in few days, I will be leaving to a new place, am assigned to carry out a secret mission, I cannot say which one it is," Aiden said. The ministers thought about taking a really long time and in the end agreed to the arrange made by King Aenon until he would return. He then left the court room silently. He dashed into his room in the side castle and freshed up straight. He took a hot steam bath, immersed into thoughts, recalling his moment with Huo in the morning and he snapped at Aiden for that

Also the images of Aizen kept flashing before his eyes. "A semi good he should be, and moreover  Aqua did choose the right people to safely grow with. Too sad that both them didn't perform as expected by Aqua. Aiden decided to meet with his father the first thing to do after getting out of the  bath.

He apparently has to make sure of things,  about his father who usullay hide a lot of things from any member in the family and handle his mother all at once when she comes to know about the encounter Aiden had with her only step son.

Aiden, stood up and walked outside the pool, with water trickling down his spine and dripping from his hair. His ripped body exposed to the sunlight in the room. He wiped the water off the body, and put on the clothes with fhe help of the eunuch. "Pa, lets not hide the truth anymore, I really feel excited to read and find out  family about past now," he said meeting with his father back at their castle.

Then Aiden waited patiently for his father's reply to know if there is a hope for his half brother.  Aiden did not want to let his half brother die like that,"
