Chapter 89

**Tzalmon Point of View**

A good few days in the new city and we are in a prison.

Is this yet another curse on us or is it the luck is completely dried up on our part?

"As per the evidences and witness statements provided, it is clear that Mr. Shepherd misbehaved with waiting passengers at the bus stop and had assaulted people with vulgar words and inappropriate actions. After looking through the past criminal history, he has been to prison few times for the same crime so he is thus sentenced for two years of imprisonment. Mr. Shepherd was wrong in the first place but assaulting him physically to such extent proves that the Mr. Gyles and the others have aggressive personality. However, seeing that the four of you have no criminal history before and have a good image among people around you, you are to pay ten thousand dollars which would serve as a warning to not make the same mistake again. The officer who was in charge of the case was did not work the right way and was unprofessional. He is thus suspended from his post for an year and will be instated an year later in a rank below the present one."

With such a judgment, it could be said we were lucky enough to get out of the mess unscathed with just a small fine. While, how the judgment was framed and executed was interesting.

"The offender was punished, the irresponsible officer was punished and even we are punished for handling the situation violently. What a good way of handling it. It was handled well, don't you think so?" I saw the three making a list of purchases for our academy and spoke.

I swiped through the equipment in my phone while watching the video of that particular equipment in a tablet. After seeing how it works and for what purpose it is used, I check or uncheck as per my evaluation.

Now that the prison problem is past, the priority now is to setup the academy now.

"I agree, Majesty. The method of having both the parties got through several trials to find out the true culprit is time consuming but a well implemented." Azar stated respectfully. I can tell they are also impressed by the judging system in this world.

"Hmm. Is Eblilis still in the same city?" Azar looked up and nodded affirmatively.

"I could still feel the same strong sense of presence, Majesty. We have to hurry and find her before -"

"Yes. But Majesty, isn't this academy waste of time and effort? We can just hire some underground people and get them to search Lady Dawn and the young prince." Gyles frowned and suggested with a grunt.

I glared at him and raised a brow at his sudden audacity. "And then?"

"We can take them back to the Kingdom." He replied casually as if he suggested the best option out there.

Eelk and Azar forgot about their rank and position before Gyles and glared at him with a look of distaste. I, on the other hand, pinned him down with a murderous stare but before I give him a piece of my mind, Azar and Eelk did it for me/

"General Gyles, you are wrong here. If Majesty dealt with situation in a right manner, would Lady take young prince and ran away?" Although Azar was teaching Gyles, as smart as I am, I know those words are meant to me.

Like a slap, it hit my sore spot.

"The more Majesty tried to control her, the more it caused chaotic it was. Lady Dawn was living but never happy when she was in kingdom." Eelk continued as he took brief stealthy glances at me which he thought I didn't notice.

These three got completely impudent after coming to the mortal world. If it was some other time then I would've whipped them until they were only half a breath away from eternal sleep.

"Poor, Lady Dawn, she suffered so much. She wasn't there in the kingdom back them in right way and that was the reason she chose to get away from there. Now that we are here for her, should we right the wrong done to her?" Eelk continued as he gulped loudly at the very ferocious look I and Gyles are giving him for all the different reasons.

I, obviously for the audacity and courage he got to even point a finger at me. He is only a subject of mine and he even dared to talk about my shortcomings.

Absolute insolence!

"You are looking for a beating." I growled out lowly to which Eelk gulped and avoided looking at me.

However, Azar, who still did not take the hint continued to slander me and my ways despite the temperature around. "Lady Dawn indeed went through so much. I was feeling so guilty for not telling my identity in the beginning itself. Not only was she suppressed by our men, she was also not given the necessary answers needed. She was a strong lady thankfully but if it were someone else, they would've succumbed to dire state. I feel so sorry for how we and our kingdom treated Lady Dawn."

SLAP!

An invisible but a powerful slap was forced on my face by Azar's words.

Although I know I was not truly right in few decisions I made, it was not his turn or duty to show me the mirror.

"That's enough! Continue with your work quietly if you want to keep that head on your neck." With a punch on his face, I left the living room and went to my small bed chamber.

In the bedchamber, I punched the wall until the skin on my hand cracked and blood seeped out of it. It was first time that my blood was seen and it was not a good feeling.

What was worse was not pain or blood but those words that Eelk and Azar slapped me with. No matter how harsh they were, they are right.

I know, by heart I know I did not deal with Eblilis in the right way which caused her endless suffering. And when my feelings for her softened later on, it was already too late.

Now that I saw and know what world she came from, I now understand her independence too.

But it was late. It was too late.

Then again, my ego was important too. I am a King, a deity; how can I lower myself for a woman?

With several confusing thoughts, I spent the night mulling over the times I and Eblilis spent back in the kingdom.

For the next several days, we were busy from choosing the equipments to organizing the academy, it was fully hectic for us. I was busy learning more about the business laws and tactics in this world, Azar and Gyles was busy with the style of martial arts and self defense that this world follows while Eelk was choosing staff for the business and working on the promotions.

In about a week, the academy shall start so the burden of work is still sitting on our shoulders. The invites are already prepared and I was the one to give them to our neighbors while the Azar shall be giving the invites to influential people in the city.

I was to invite the neighbors because the ladies, married or unmarried, are somehow completely taken over by me. These past few days that we were here, all the ladies here kept on irritating me, trying to make an audience with me or stumble in my arms.

They keep peeking in to our house from one corner or the other. Some even tried to get into the house just to tell me how handsome and amazing I look.

Seeing that how they are so smitten by me, Eelk dared to order me to invite our neighbors.

Looking down at the invites in my hand, I grunted in dissatisfying. It would be a long day today for certain.

Locking the door, I went to the closest residence to us to start with. I raised my hand and dropped down for four times before I got the courage to ring the doorbell.

Here in this house lives a family of four with a set of elder parents with a daughter and a niece. The problem lies with all the three ladies who drools at me at every look so nastily.

Not even a second later the doorbell rang, a pair of hurried footsteps sounded from inside and the door opened like it flew from a tornado from inside.

"Eeeeeyyy, Young Mr. Ebernus, what a pleasant surpriseee~~" My goodness, this old lady can cause a serious damage to ears just with her voice.

Painfully, I gave her a brief polite smile all the while feeling an immediate urgency to sooth my ears from the ache.

"Mrs. Luther, Ms. Luther, It was all my pleasure." A complete lie! I would rather not meet you people at all.

Without having any consideration for personal space and gender differences, the old lady hopped to me and held my arm in an amazingly tight grip.

Her grip was so strong that I was thinking again if I should replace Gyles with this old lady for teaching the students.

"Mrs. Luther," I called out politely and pushed an invite card in her hands and kept a hand distance between us. "I and my friends are starting a self defense academy and a gym for all ages and gender. You r family is cordially invited for the opening event."

Now that I was a little away from the old one, the young one took the chance and wrapped herself around my arm like a snake.

If it wasn't for the sake of my business, I would've hypnotized them to cut their own arms.

"We will be there from tomorrow."

"No, please attend the event on time." I hurriedly said before escaping from their grasp sleekly.

One down, fourteen more to go!

It will be a long day for certain.
