Zein took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "If that's what you think, then you can relax now."

Arsy was surprised and immediately turned her gaze to Zein, her tiny lips smiling happily. "Your Majesty, are you going to cancel your plans to leave?"

""Why do you think like that?" Zein asked with a frown.

""Then what?" Arsy asked curiously.

""If you are afraid that Ne Shu and Concubine Sekar will behave badly after I leave, then I will leave Mahesa here to look after you," explained Zein, making Arsy a little disappointed.

Mahesa was shocked because he was going to be left again. "Your Majesty, why do you want to leave me again?"

Zein turned to Mahesa. "You are needed more here, besides I am used to leaving the Palace alone. I think Arsy needs your protection more than me."

"But…” Mahesa was about to protest but the gaze of those sapphire irises immediately made him change his mind.

Zein turned his attention back to Arsy, he reached out and pulled the girl's hand towards him then hugged her tiny body.

Ezra and Arsy were very surprised by Zein's gentle treatment, but in Arsy's heart, she was very happy so she returned the hug.

"Arsy, I promised to marry you, I will not break it. Wait until I come back, don't let your heart waver," Zein said softly.

Arsy nodded, after feeling satisfied, Zein released her hug, then took out an heirloom and handed it to Arsy.." This is the Sun sword, one slash can eliminate 100 genies and severely injure 1000 humans. Do not use it wrongly."

Arsy nodded then reached out to receive the sword, she was again shocked by the weight of the sword making her almost unable to lift it.

"This sword is so heavy, how can His Highness the Prince lift it so easily?" She thought.

Zein turned his body to leave the beautiful girl, meanwhile Jiao Hua and Arya were already waiting in front of the gate with the cavalry soldiers.

"What are you doing, Hua-hua?" Zein asked, seeing the many troops as if facing war.

"What did I do? What question is that, Brother?” Jiao Hua replied, pretending to be confused.

""Hua-hua, we're not going to war, so send your troops back," said Zein.

"But what we will face is the terror of the black flow, we do not know what danger will come. There is no harm in bringing a lot of troops," Jiao Hua replied disapprovingly.

"Do you know how the people will react and be afraid if you bring a lot of troops like this? They will think that our country is going to war, they will be afraid. If you want to come, you better follow what I say," Zein explained firmly.

"People, people! Brother always thinks about the people’s comfort, okay I’ll follow. But I will never protect you if you’re in trouble,” replied Jiao Hua annoyedly.

"Don't worry, I won't trouble you." Zein stepped closer to a white horse and then mounted the horse.

From inside the Crown Prince's palace, Arsy looked at the blue sky in the hope that her future husband would be fine and return soon.

On the trip there were only Zein, Arya and Jiao Hua. Jiao Hua secretly glanced at Zein, the man suddenly stopped in the middle of the road and even got off the horse while he and Arya were still on the horse while looking at Zein full of question marks.

"What is he doing?” Jiao Hua asked who knows who.

"Your Majesty, let me ask you something." Arya got off his horse and walked over to Zein who was observing the area.

"Your Highness, what are you doing? Shouldn't we arrive at Endas Gundul village before it gets dark?" Arya asked.

"The journey from the Palace to Endas Gundul village can be completed in a week at full speed without rest. Do you know how many times your boss asked for a break along the way?” Zein replied.

Arya thought about Zein's words, it was true what the man said that Jiao Hua had asked for a break almost 5 times.

"Do you see that hill?” Zein pointed to a high hill far in front of him.

"Endas Gundul Village is behind that hill, we have been traveling for 5 days. I am sure there will be danger lurking ahead of us," Zein continued.

Arya nodded. "I understand."

Zein took some leaves then turned his body and got on the horse.

"“Brother, what leaf is that?” Jiao Hua asked.

"Bidara leaves," Zein replied, then immediately ordered his horse to run again.

Jiao Hua looked at Zein's back that was getting further away, looking at him in annoyance. "Always acting as he pleases." He turned to Arya, the man was still picking a lot of bidara leaves.

"What are you doing?! Come on, hurry up! We have to catch up with Brother Zein soon!"

Arya nodded, after that he finished picking leaves and returned to his horse.

Southeastern Star Kingdom Taizi Palace

It's been 5 days since Arsy saw her future husband's face, she felt very lonely even though so far no one had bothered her, even Ne Shu didn't come to look for trouble, Even though before she met Zein, she felt normal, now she felt very different.

Ezra put the tea on the table then looked at her friend's back who was standing in front of the window looking out of the palace.

He then walked over to his friend. "The Crown Prince hasn't returned yet, even though you two are supposed to get married in two days."

""That's right, but maybe our wedding will be postponed," replied Arsy, feeling reluctant.

Ezra walked to the girl's side. "Are you feeling disappointed?"

"How dare I do that, the Crown Prince is the future . For him, the most important thing is the safety of the people, which means I have to compete with the people to get his attention." Arsy sighed.

Ezra nodded.

"Brother Zein may be a good King for the people, but what if he will be a bad Husband for his Wife?"

Arsy and Ezra were surprised to see Afzam suddenly appear from behind the wall.

""Greetings, Your Majesty," said Arsy and Ezra together.

""Arsy, I told you not to be too polite to me. Later we will be brothers," Afzam replied feeling uneasy.

""Yes, Your Highness. But what on earth made you come here? As far as I know, His Highness the Crown Prince has not returned," Arsy asked politely.

"I know, because I know Brother Zein is not in the palace that's why I came. I just want to protect you, I know you are often bullied by Ne Shu and my mother," Afzam answered.

"I don't think that's necessary, Your Majesty. Because His Highness the Crown Prince has left Mr. Mahesa with me," Arsy refused politely.

Afzam was shocked to hear Arsy's words, he looked around the place but did not find Mahesa there. "Where is that damn guard hiding?" he thought.
