A Wizard's Romance 12 Weaknesses

Knock , Knock.

Enter

As soon as the lord gave permission to enter the butler entered inside his lord's study and bowed his head.

Lord, The knight Vladis is asking for a word with you . The butler quickly explained his reason for his intrusion as he was well aware that his lord hates it when somebody disturbs him during his work.He didn't know that why did knight Vladis asked him to convey his presence to lord .He had a special privilege and was the only one who can enter in the lord's study as he wishes.

Send him here. The lord ordered.

After some time a handsome man entered inside lords study. That man was none other than Knight Vladis.

Forgive me for my intrusion lord and with that he gave a slight bow to the lord .

You may stand,the lord chuckled.

So what brings you here. Weren't you supposed to be on a date . The Lord asked him with a lazy smile and gave a stretch to his stiffed limbs on his chair.

Of course.If I don't have to deliver some important information to you perhaps i would have been enjoying myself with them. Vladis spoke with a sigh.

Then,it seems like Taylor's daughter are truly beautiful. Tell me have you fallen for one of them or perhaps for both. Arthur chuckled while speaking.

Vladis felt irritated when he saw Arthur laughing.

Let's see if you laugh your guts out after listening to what i have to tell you.

Sure,go ahead .He stopped laughing but you can see the mirth in his eyes.

Well Rune Taylor has come back from his mission.

Wasn't his mission to collect information about Soyle's Emire and the long last art of necromancy,Arthur spoke grimly.

Yes ,it was.But no one in the empire knew that he came back yesterday.That old man Brian is too sly .His son has come back from the royal mission and he didn't even report about it.He taking a great risk.If we will take any action he can easily be declared as a traitor .He knew that we will eventually find out about Rune . Even if we take action against him only suspicion will arise and nothing more because he had the majority of support in council and if we don't do anything then we will miss the opportunity. You know what i mean. Vladis explained with a frown.

Everybody has to reap what he sows. We can't persuade anyone to walk on the same road as we are walking. Everyone has different aims and different paths. We need to try another strategy. The lord spoke impa.s.sively.

Yes,The game has just started .I should not be hasty,Vladis smiled faintly but you can see blood l.u.s.t in his eyes.

Well that was a great news but care to explain how did you got to know about Rune Taylor.Afterall he is the black horse of Brian .Even if you have infiltrated his house you won't be able to find a evidence about his existence unless he wants us to know about Runes.Arthur questioned .

Well,Vladis started fidgeting and was uncomfortable under Arthur's stare.In the end he decides to tell him.

Well its like this, when i was with Camy and Ceil they were discussing Runes so I overheard them. Vladis explained calmly.

Camy ,Ceil .I haven't heard these names before . Who are they? Arthur arched one if his eyebrows and was seemingly interested in this topic.

Does it matter who are they?You should just focus on Rune Taylor.Yoy know how much importance he has in this game. Vladis scoffed.

Of course it does matter who are they .Rune is important but not more than My dear camy and ceil. Arthur spoke leisurely but Vladis knew better than anyone else what does that tone means.Arthur declared.

You are not allowed to touch them Arthur and I mean it .Vladis said seriously.It was evident in his eyes how much importance they have.

My ,My .You have only spend an afternoon with them and for them, you are threatening me.You barely know them so why do they matter to you so much Arthur enquired with hidden emotions.

You know better than me why i want to protect them. Even if you have forgotten about them,i haven't nor do i wish to forget them. After you they are the only ones who had given me my best childhood memories Vladis said truthfully with a somber expression.

Can't you forget childhood .They were just kids and most probably they won't be remembering a single encounter.It will only make us sad so why torture us Vladis.Even if they remember us do you think they will be with us.You know they are Brian's daughter and they both love him.Whatever we will explain they won't trust us . Afterall parental love is something that no one can't compare to. Arthur said with a bitter smile.

Vladis remained quiet after listening to Arthur.He didn't want to admit it but whatever Arthur said was true.No one can compare to parental love. His heart was in turmoil.He do not want to harm them but the road on which they are traveling was destined to cause a huge storm which will sweep them too.He can't accept this outcome, No he will not accept it. He closed his eyes in an attempt to sort his thoughts.

Arthur didn't disturb him and he too closed his eyes to conceal his emotions.

The atmosphere inside the room became sad and gloomy.

Both the man inside was lost in their own thoughts.

Vladis and Arthur knew about the importance of this game.They were destined to lose their loved ones and to be lived alone due to which they never attached themselves to anyone emotionally. They both were savage and ruthless sorcerers and never flinched when killing someone.

They tried everything to avoid any weakness but still, G.o.d made one for each of them and Arthur was trying his best to alter the course of his destiny.
