Chapter 90: Capital of Mountain Kingdom 2



90 Capital of Mountain Kingdom 2

A couple of minutes before…

"They surely have strengthened the guard here," General Hen said solemnly.

Jun Min nodded. Since he's not someone from this place, he cannot comment about it. The guards have surely made it difficult for him to pass. But with his face and small stature, they decide to allow her inside.

"Your small stature is truly a big help."

Hearing General Hen remark, Jun Min feels his face darken. It's not like he wants to have a small stature, but because he's in fact a girl, there is no way she could have that big of the stature. Not to mention that her mother is not that tall and her father… forget about him. Jun Min scanned the surrounding.

"They seem very peaceful."

"The officials must have guarded the information they leak out. They cannot possibly let the whole world know about what had happened. The other kingdom might take advantage if the word goes out," General Hen explained.

Jun Min had guessed so. "Do you have any idea where the princess might be?"

"The number of people she trusts is limited. I'm among one of them, but given that I'm sent out for war, I shouldn't have returned. The other person she trusted is Prime Minister Rei, but according to the information, he had switched sides."

"Where is his residence?"

"Over here."

Jun Min had learned a lot about this place from what General Hen told her. She knows that the capital is quite big with many people going here and there. The numbers of the officials are also quite a lot and she knows that most of them had changed side. The princess is the legal successor and only if she died or giving the thrones can they hope to be the emperor.

The journey towards the Prime Minister Rei is smooth and all. Jun Min noticed the servants seem less than what a big residence should have. Extending her senses, she could feel that the atmosphere suddenly turned dangerous.

"What is it?"

"It's like there is some changes in the atmosphere. Should we break in?" Jun Min said.

General Hen nodded and hurriedly destroys the gate with his hammer. Jun Min followed suit and then he heard the general beside her gasp.

"She's here!"

"You take her and I will distract the other," Jun Min said as he took out his sword. The guards who come to her are slashed in a matter of second. After finishing with them, he turned to look at General Hen who had carried Princess Kuina away.

Jun Min goes inside the room to clean up the last one, the prime minister. With the tiny strength the official had, he is clearly not the match for Jun Min. After that, he quickly followed after General Hen to the alley.

"Did they follow after you?" General Hen asks.

Jun Min shakes his head. Those people martial arts are too low to chase after him. Given his speed, it doesn't require him much energy to shake them off from his tail.

"You're really great," General Hen has been fully convinced when he sees Jun Min fighting that this small boy is indeed Jun Min. The boy fighting skill is not even better than him. He had to admit that the boy is indeed a monster in human skin.

Jun Min rolled his eyes as he looks towards the princess. "You might want to put her down."

Kuina looks towards the two men before her. Her eyes widen in surprise as she looks at General Hen.

"You have returned."

"Yes, this subject really sorry that I cannot return in time and let this happened to you," General Hen said solemnly.

Kuina shakes her head. "It's not your fault. Don't blame yourself," she turned her head towards Jun Min. "And this is?"

"This is General Jun Min from Ming Kingdom. General Tou negotiates with them to borrow him and let him help you."

Kuina looks at the boy in disbelief. This person is a general? He's even younger than her and far shorter at that. How could a person like this become a general?

Jun Min feels that the gaze from Kuina is truly disrespecting him, but what can he do? His appearance is indeed not one to support him if he were to tell other people about his real identity as a general. They will doubt him and ask him about this and that. Sigh, becoming a general as a girl is indeed really hard.

"He's truly a general, Princes Kuina," General Hen said again.

Kuina nodded, then she frowned, "But how can we get inside?"

"Why do you need to get inside?"

"To get the royal staff and to kick out those disloyal officials," Kuina answered.

Looking at the full of determination princess, Jun Min feels that this girl is indeed suitable to become an empress. She's a strong girl and she would undoubtedly try to bring Mountain Kingdom to reach an even greater height. A girl like this is indeed worthy of being called a princess.

"With that, will you be able to become the empress?" Jun Min asks.

"It's important, but there is still a ceremony I need, so I would need the support of some of the officials," Kuina answered. She feels weird that she could trust a man she had just encounter so much, but given that General Hen said that he could be trusted, Kuina choose to tell the truth towards this man.

Jun Min nodded. There are some important matters too aside from getting inside the palace. He thoughts for a moment.

"I can help you get inside, but you need soldiers to distract the main army," General Hen had told him that there must be some armies guarding. No matter how powerful he is, he cannot guarantee that he could beat close to thousands of people while being surrounded. If it's one hundred ordinary soldiers, he still can beat them.

"Leave it to me. I only need you to accompany her inside tonight," General Hen said.

"Then, so be it," Jun Min answered.
