Chapter 92 - Let's Run Away!

Mu Liang took a shower and got dressed to go out, he still didn't know how everything was going after the terrorist attack. Chong Ji rubbed ointment on the love marks that were very glaring on the prince's fair skin.

"Prince Mu, due to all the mess the prince can't leave," Chong Ji said when he saw the prince put on a jacket.

"Haven't I been hidden already? And not yet and you know if the goal was really my life." Mu Liang wanted to argue, but Chong Ji was adamant.

"Huang Lian, you must accompany Prince Mu on a walk to the garden," Chong Ji said after taking a deep breath. If he went for a walk in the winter garden there would be no problems.

"Yes, miss Chong" Huang Lian replied. She is one of the three Shadows that came with Prince Mu to the Diablo Empire.

Huang Lian is a woman with yellow skin like the hot desert sands, her eyes are round and with long light lashes, her hair is light brown like honey and her eyebrows are short, which makes her face very smooth, but the amount of blood on her hands completely belies that softness.

Of the three Shadows, she was the only omega among them, she was the stealthy, quick-reacting type of combatant, great for covert escort tasks or assassination missions.

"Gyasi, his have hidden me so deeply that the enemy doesn't even know where I am, I don't think I need all of this" Mu Liang said defeated, he didn't want to cause any more problems for his subordinates. It's not that he had no love for his own life, but with his invisible and secret attack, there was no way for the enemy to win over him anyway.

When Mu Liang woke up, he thought he was in Gyasi's palace or another guesthouse in the imperial palace, but he was in one of Emperor Ade's secret residences, which were used when he wanted to "play" among ordinary people.

The residence was in the capital, but there is a two-hour float drive away, which meant that if he were walking to the palace it would take a whole day.

Mu Liang left with Huang Lian for another winter garden, he was feeling more and more suffocated, he was always protected in an armored dome, he wanted to see the world outside and meet other people.

It's the feeling of finally having a way to protect himself that was clouding Mu Liang's mind, clearly, he was getting back to the taste of having amazing powers and somehow he felt invincible which made the whole situation of being apart from his mate alpha and still not be able to leave unbearable.

"Huang Lian, if I want to leave, will you stop me?" Mu Liang asked suddenly, he was admiring some flowers, but his eagerness to leave had not decreased.

"I only serve Prince Mu, so I can't stop you, but I can call on people who can stop you," Huang Lian said sincerely. The creed of the Shadow race was to serve their masters, never to lie and protect the master's life, she really would never stop Mu Liang from leaving, but as she had to keep the master safe she would warn someone to prevent the prince from leaving.

Mu Liang sighed, he was calculating if he could get away faster than Chong Ji could put on his mecha armor and go after him.

Alessandra-066: Of course, you can dream.

Mu Liang: Is it a very bad idea?

Alessandra-066: A human in a mecha armor is like becoming one step immortal realms, so do you think who will be faster than an ordinary human or a cultivator of immortal realms?

Mu Liang: (...)

Okay, I got it, it's a stupid idea!

The escape thoughts were interrupted when the half-elf saw a dark-skinned gardener taking care of the flowers not far from him. Mu Liang knew that the robots of the Diablo Empire were mostly light-skinned or bluish-skinned, people with black or brown skin were generally high-ranking zergs taking care of the administrative part.

So Mu Liang was surprised to find a zerg gardener working on such a poor activity.

"Hi?" Mu Liang approached and called the gardener, the woman turned and faced Prince Mu. His long blue-black hair swayed in the gentle artificial garden breeze, his gem-clear eyes were pure with curiosity, and his long ears twitched as if preparing to catch any different sound, made Prince Mu really look like one of those fairytale princes or one of the lovely creatures of the forests.

"Your Highness" the gardener knelt and placed her left hand on her heart in greeting Mu Liang.

"You don't have to do that, I'm still a foreign prince. I don't deserve all that honor" Mu Liang said approaching the woman to help her up, his actions were kind and polite.

Huang Lian was on the alert, she didn't remember that there would be other people besides her, Chong Ji, Kainda Ayan, Dinari, and Bwana, the two zergs were out on the outside, Dinari was leading the private guards patrolling the perimeter of the mansion and Chong Ji was working in front of surveillance cameras.

In order not to draw too much attention, only a few people could stay with Mu Liang, considering that most of the followers of the half-elf prince were hospitalized due to the injuries and wear and tear of yesterday's battles, only Chong Ji was well and with the mecha armor intact.

Ji Huo and Feng Bo were busy fixing the mecha armor and trying to improve it while investigating the origin of the weapons that were used to damage the mecha armor. It should be remembered that the investigation was in the jurisdiction of the Zerg Empire for obvious reasons, but nothing prevented the two women from carrying out a parallel investigation using the armored armor of their wounded colleagues.

In short, no more zerg should appear inside the mansion, so Huang Lian was tense, she herself hadn't felt the woman's presence until she had moved to tend to the flowers.

Where did this woman come from? And when did she appear?

"The prince is very kind," the woman said getting up. She wore simple and light standard clothes from the mansion's employees, with the pattern of a noble coat of arms shaped similar to a tiger but with black fur and two horns on its head, the coat of arms was on the chest.

Her short curly hair was a lovely lilac color like beautiful jasmine, her eyes were soft irises like agates shining against the sun, her long lilac eyelash and the clear lashes gave a round look to the eyes, which were round and slightly angled downwards, like a permanent loving look.

The woman smiled politely, her full, wide lips made the simple smile seem especially warm, which already made Mu Liang feel a little more sympathetic to the woman.

"Is nothing. I interrupted your work, "Mu Liang said looking at the woman's dirt-soaked hands and the flower bed she was planting.

"It doesn't matter, I was just planting new flowers as they urged me to make the place the warmest because of the visits," the woman said with a shrug.

Mu Liang and the woman got into a friendly conversation, he asking several questions about the mansion and if she always worked there, while she just vaguely asked if he was enjoying the accommodation and if there was anything she could do to help.

"The truth is that I would like to go for a walk ... I've been in the capital for so long and I haven't been able to go for a walk yet" Mu Liang complained again. He was just making small talk with no intention behind his words.

"I know of a secret passage that is used to deliver supplies to the garden. It was an escape ticket in the event of an attack, but as the capital grew so much the passage became more dangerous for escape and could meet directly with the enemy ... However, it is perfect to be able to go undercover to the capital's street " the woman spoke suddenly, she looked thoughtful as if she had remembered the event a short time ago.

In a flash Huang Lian had the dagger on the zerg woman's neck, it was the Dark Moon dagger made of a dark material that if placed in cosmic energy the dagger becomes invisible and has the effect of poisoning.

"Who are you?" Huang Lian asked coldly. Mu Liang was shocked by his bodyguard's sudden attitude.

"I'm Nadira, just an ordinary person ... If I offended the prince in any way, I beg your pardon," Nadira said in a shaky voice, her face as dark as the most refined mahogany became pale from the sudden attack and Huang Lian's murderous aura.

"That's enough, Huang Lian" Mu Liang asked in a very calm and composed way. He was confident in his frightening powers, so he acted more confidently and wasn't afraid of anyone else.

People who should be afraid of him!

"I want to know where the hiding place is," Mu Liang asked when Huang Lian took the dagger Moonlight from Nadira's neck.

"Prince Mu!" Huang Lian was shocked by the prince's boldness, but Prince Mu pretended not to listen.

"It doesn't look like your bodyguard agrees," Nadira said with a little fear looking at the soft omega woman, but that she had a cold look and a sharp aura.

"She doesn't have to agree, she just needs to follow me," Mu Liang said with a little arrogance. He wouldn't miss this opportunity to go out and see what the streets of the capital are like so easily.

"Okay, so just follow me," said Nadira, pulling off her earth-filled gloves, grabbing her black handbag, like a leather handbag, from the floor. She looked at Prince Mu with his snow-white skin and his very bright robes and at the bodyguard in his dark yet very rich clothes.

"You will need at least one hooded cape to cover your clothes" Nadira said shaking her hand1 and taking out some capes with hoods of some colors, the only thing in common was the simplicity of the garment and that covered the entire body just leaving the feet out.

Huang Lian frowned even more at the clothes, everything seemed very well planned, luring Prince Mu out of the safe mansion and still making him wear clothes so as not to be recognized as he fled.

"Okay, if that's all we can go," Mu Liang said excitedly, already wearing a black hooded cape with simple white mountain designs on the back.

The clothes of the Diablos zerg hardly have any figures, patterns, or images, being a cultural thing in the empire, it would be strange to wear clothes without any type of design.

Mu Liang dressed so quickly and without any conflicting or suspicious thoughts, which immediately worried Huang Lian.

Huang Lian: (...)

Prince Mu be more aware!

Alessandra-066: (...)

Do you see now? That's how I suffer from this host without consequences!
