For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

Chapter 23

He was already losing his nerve after knowing that he is supposed to duel with a cutie-pie little girl, however, by receiving the first strike, the spear knight regained his wits.

Fast, strong and steady, with no trace of hesitation.

Everlys' ability to control the Spear in her hands was perfect, if not for her height, she might be able to get the upper hand.

For each time Everly hits the Spear knight she had to defend against two strikes of his.

At the side, Lennoxs' smile was getting wider and wider, his eyes blazing every time the spearhead lunch towards the other.

Oliver commented in admiration:" she jumps pretty high".

Lennox responded while keeping his eyes on Everly:" you should see her cross a mile in one hop".

Oliver said astonished:" for real!!? Wow, who is she anyway?".

Lennox answered nonchalantly:" not sure but, she is suspected to be my sister".

Oliver: "huh?".

Lennox: "well, you see. She has been wandering around me as if I was an old peaceful farmer or something. And overall, she is ten".

Oliver:" ten!! That makes sense".

In that second, a crashing sound banged on the side of the field.

By following the sound, there was a long golden spear was pierced on the wall, Seems like the Spear knight managed to strip Everly off her weapon. Although she lost her weapon, Everly continued to advance as nothing happened.

Everly lunched towards the Spear knight in high speed, she dashed lightly under the spear and sent a heavy blow on the Spear knights' stomach smashing the armour and reaching to his flesh. Everlys' fist was small yet strong, which made the blow hurts much more.

Ignoring his pain, the spear knight instantly aimed for her knees, if he managed to hit her knee pit then she wouldn't be able to dodge or escape.

However, Everly was short, her knee level wasn't one the same high as the adults. Without taking that on mind, he drew a bead on her knee pit, but instead of hitting it, with the height the spear knight used, he ended up accidentally hitting her buttocks.

The spear knight used a lot of strength that the hit made Everly fly few feets before falling on her face.

Lennox:".....".

Oliver:"........".

Everyone:"...........".

Her losing was expected, but no one expected that the moment she raised of the ground, Everly would cry loudly like a newborn baby.

" whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaooooaaaaaaa, it huuuurts whoooooo".

The knights who were standing in awe watching her battling with their colleague suddenly forgot the feelings of uneasiness they felt towards Everly.

" are okay child?".

One of the knights approached her with a worried expression. Everly startled when she raised her head to see who was it, surprisingly that knight was armorless and had a pretty girly face.

Everly did not answer him, instead, her whining became quieter and her tears fall even harder. The knight thought that she was scared, but actually Everly was just embarrassed, it has been years since someone smacked her on the buttocks as a punishment.

The knight brushed away her tears and patted her head gently while softly saying:" does it hurt a lot?".

Everly nodded slowly.

Seeing her pathetic condition, the knight with the girly face couldn't help but shout at the spear knight: "DIEGO YOU DUMBASS, HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO A LITTLE GIRL".

Diego who was using his spear as a leaning stick 'cause he can barely stand, rebuked:" ARE YOU BLIND, KAI. Can't you see I almost died there !!?".

Kai: "who cares about your life, as a man of culture you shouldn't harm a child".

Diego with a hole in his armour and maybe a broken bone stood speechless, While looking at Kai carefully carrying Everly and soothing her.

Because Everly was already thin and light, Someone with a small structure like Kai had no difficulties in carrying her. She rested her chin on his shoulder and warped her arms around his neck. Another one added to her { carry me } collection.

Kai walked towards Lennox with Everly in his arms, he dared not say anything and interrupt Lennox and Oliver's conversation, so he just stood there waiting for his orders.

Lennox:" I better confirm her identity before coming with a decision ".

Oliver:" what if she really is a Princess?".

Lennox:" then things will be tough, that whore won't stop nagging to lay her hand on Everly ".

Oliver:" well, I kinda understand Princess Annasophys' way of thinking. She just wants a little cute sibling, unfortunately, what she got was a scary black cat. I even heard that prince Leonard will stay in Mojin as their heir".

Lennox:" can't be helped, Mojin also needs heirs and I don't want two countries on my head".

Oliver laughed dryly for seconds then both of them drowned in their thoughts.

After a brief while, Oliver bed Lennox his farewells and was preparing to pull off with the knights, however, Everly refused to let the umbrella butler or anyone else carry her back.

Lennox said irritated:" hey, stop being a bothersome and get down already ".

Everly shook her and grabbed tightly on Kai. for him this feeling was the same when the cat sleeps willingly on your lap, it's the feelings of being the chosen one.

kai said with a suppressed smile:" it's fine your highness, I shall return her to the palace ".

Lennox sighed helplessly:" and here I was thinking you were amusing few minutes ago...., whatever, just take her to Rachel, she will take care of her".

kai affirmed then headed to the palace.

until he disappeared from her sight, Everly kept staring at Lennox, wishing he would come home with her too.
