Chapter 979 Chapter 979: You don't belong here
"What does this do?" The young prince asked innocently as he held the unique looking crystal in his hand.
It was a gift that only he could use, and it came from an Angel. There was no way it could be anything simple.
"Whenever you want to visit our place, you can use this crystal. Of course, you should have your parents\' permission before that. However, if you are feeling naughty, you can use it even without their permission."
With a smirk on his lips, the Angel cast a glance at the King before he turned around and returned to his seat.
The Prince looked at the crystal in his hand. An item that could not only help him leave the palace but this world as well?
He really loved the thought of exploring other worlds, but thinking about his mother, he lowered his head. He had just gone to the city, and she grew so worried. If he was to leave this world, what was going to happen to her?
"I will keep it safe for you."
The Prince was lost in thought when his father took the crystal from him.
The Prince could only nod in response. Meanwhile, the Angel narrowed his eyes, but didn\'t say anything.
Karyk also paid quite a lot of attention to the crystal. It was an item that could open a path for him to enter the world of Archangels.
With the Civilization\'s disappearance, he was quite curious about the whereabouts of this crystal. Was it used before the Civilization disappeared? If not, then there was a high chance that it was still somewhere in the palace.
As only the Prince could see it, it was quite possible that the Children of Heavens hadn\'t noticed it.
\'I should check the Royal Palace when I return. But... Even now, I don\'t know what will keep my powers suppressed in the future.\'
\'So far, there\'s no sign of anything. Is this something that only happens after the Ceremony, or with their disappearance?\'
Karyk remained silently, making note of all the important things he had to remember before returning.
The Ceremony continued even after the gifting ceremony. It was only late in the night that the ceremony was finally completed.
Slowly, the Guests started leaving the palace after informing the King respectfully. The Emperor of Ocean also lowered his head respectfully before he left, returning to the Ocean.
Lastly, it was the Angel who was the only person left behind.
He also stood up, but before leaving, he turned to the King.
"I hope you remember what I said at the beginning. Sometimes, trying to go against the will of the heaven is the worst sin that one can commit."
Karyk had thought that the Angels were going to do something, even attacking the Civilization. But the man only issued a warning before he left the Palace.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
\'How strange... Do they really not have anything to do with this?\'
He had been observing the Angel for quite some time, but he never felt any malice that could have been directed towards the Prince or the Civilization. If it was present, then he had done a really good job in hiding it.
While the Angel was walking past Karyk, he slowed down.
"I don\'t know who you are... But you don\'t belong here. I hope you will remember your place and don\'t make things more complicated than they need to be..."
His words were only heard by Karyk, who didn\'t understand if he was actually talking to the thief, or if he knew that he was in the future, observing the past.
The Angel did not stay there any longer and left the hall, his words leaving a deep impact in Karyk\'s mind.
\'Making things more complicated than they need to be? Funny coming from the ancestors of people that tried to kill me....\'
Karyk watched the Angel disappear. His aura and every trace was gone, as if he was not in this world anymore.
"It\'s time for your friend to leave as well. You can go and talk to him, and then tell him to leave."
The King patted his son\'s head, telling him to go to Karyk. This was the last favor he was doing to his son.
The Prince landed on his feet and walked to Karyk, his eyes filled with hesitation.
"I thought I could convince my father to give you an official position in the Palace. But-"
"Don\'t worry. Thanks to you, I already managed to witness a lot of things that I never could have seen."
Karyk did not worry about not getting a position in the Palace. He was only a temporary guest in the Palace after all. As for leaving the palace, there was no
chance.
Now that he had entered the Palace, it was impossible for him to be sent out. He had already passed the most difficult stage.
"It might take a long time, but I promise that I will find a way!" The Prince promised Karyk, who only smiled in response.
"I am not sure if it is possible." Karyk went down on one knee before the Prince. He
already knew that the Prince might not live long.
"If there was anything I could have done, then I..."
He didn\'t finish his sentence, noticing the King\'s attention focused on him.
He stood up. "I know I am very late, but happy birthday."
He turned around to be escorted out of the Palace by the Guards.
The Birthday Banquet had officially come to an end with all the Guests leaving.
The Emperor held his son\'s hand. "Come with me, there is just one last thing we need
to do."
"We-" the Queen tried saying something, but she closed her mouth before she could even utter a proper sentence. She just lowered her head and remained seated in her
place.
The King took the Prince to the lowest floor of the Palace where even the Guards were not allowed to be present.
"After today, you won\'t have to worry about anything else. It will all be over..."
