Chapter 15: Chapter 15. Raid On The Royal Border
Blood and iron prisons were very common for Ara. Recalling in her previous life, that woman was the former commander of the Alpha team who led the Nine special soldiers in her country.
Some prisoners who saw their arrival immediately ran to the corner of the prison, cowering in fear.
"Come on, hurry up," said one of the guards who were with them, pushing the bodies of the slaves to quicken their pace.
Through several prison rooms, they finally stopped right at the end of the corridor. Immediately someone opened the lock and chain that was wrapped around the prison chain at the end of the room. Inside is empty, there is no one.
Bruck…
The bodyguard pushed them very hard, causing their bodies to hit the prison wall. Then again locked the prison door without removing the chains that wrapped around the hands and feet of the slaves.
Ara took a deep breath, the girl then corrected her position, sitting back. While the woman who was with her was still sobbing in her place.
"Shut up, and save your energy. Crying won't get us out of this prison," Ara muttered.
"What are you saying? Don't you know that entering the palace prison is tantamount to waiting for death?" said one of the slaves.
Ara turned to the source of the voice, "Then what do you want? Are you going to cry until someone comes to save you? Shut up, Whether we will end up dead or not, no one knows. Everyone's destiny is predetermined. You're just wasting energy," Ara replied very firmly.
"You? How can you be so calm in a situation like this?"
Ara took a deep breath, shaking her head. "What can I do? Should I scream? Cry? It's all useless. Won't everyone die later?" Ara replied the girl looked very calm. Don't panic one bit.
She is in this new world after going through various dangerous things, betrayal, and even her death. And facing death a second time made her no longer afraid.
'I've already been killed by someone, if in this world I get killed again, it doesn't matter to me. I have to be ready, shouldn't I have been dead?' Ara thought she had given up.
"After all, I've been trying to help you guys by risking my life. But it seems that a crown prince is a man who can't keep his word," Ara muttered again.
"What are you saying? Lower your voice. No slave has the right to evaluate the nobles, moreover, it is the crown prince," said another slave who had been silent since earlier.
Hearing that, Ara just took a deep breath and didn't respond anymore. The girl chose to close her eyes, trying to calm her thoughts and feelings.
"Even so, thank you for wanting to help us, Miss," said the slave who was with Ara again, but the girl gave no further response. Just sitting there, not moving at all.

Palace Hall
The wind blew slowly, blowing the scarf and ribbon that hung and adorned the room. The room that looked spacious was now filled with officials and several palace soldiers. A middle-aged man sits on the royal throne, gazing at everyone from a height.
Just a moment ago, three sky army suddenly came and stopped the meeting of the ministers and royal officials. And it managed to cause a commotion in the room. But it was only seconds before the royal advisor calmed everyone down.
"Say clearly, what do you mean?" asked the royal advisor repeating his question.
"Did something happen at the border?" now the minister of defense took a step forward and asked questions.
"I report, The Southern Royal Border was attacked by several foreigners, Your Majesty. Several villages on the outskirts of the kingdom they managed to plunder. We have tried to stop them and push them back to the borders of the kingdom of Amania."
"Some people? Did the Qin kingdom's army of thousands lose to just a few people?"
The Sky Army nodded, still crouched in salute before the king's throne.
"They infiltrate at night, Your Majesty. But you don't have to worry, because we managed to save the people living around the border. There were no fatalities."
"If it's like this, what's the problem?" asked the royal adviser.
"Before that, we begged your forgiveness. Although we managed to push those people back to the borders of the kingdom of Amania, some of them fled to the residents' quarters. We have sent several people to look for their whereabouts."
"Do you mean, there are currently several intruders in this kingdom?"
The three Sky Army immediately nodded in unison.
"Intruders?" Suddenly a voice came from the direction of the hall door. There stood the crown prince and several other noble sons.
And at the same time, several soldiers came and managed to make everyone look towards the door.
"Our respects to His Highness the Crown Prince," said one soldier followed by the others.
Zhang Jiangwu's brow furrowed when he saw the color of the plaque attached to each of the sky Army's armor. They were the sky Army who guarded the borders of the West, East, and North of the kingdom. The man just nodded then gave way for the Army to enter the Hall.
After paying their respects to the King, they then reported on the happenings at all the borders. And all the reports are the same.
All the borders were attacked at night and looted the people living around the borders.
The King clenched his fists. "Who dares to invade my territory?"
The warlord immediately took a few steps forward and crouched in front of the throne, "Give your orders, Your Majesty," he said in a loud voice.
