Every person's heart harbors both good and evil, love and hatred—they are all opposites. The human mind is so contradictory. Just as I may harbor hatred, the Dark King's heart may hold love. Hope is a beautiful thing, and nothing can replace it. Hope is the eternal life.
Sana's close friend Shana came with her to Anadelure. Their adventure this time, however, was devoid of any travel joy; instead, it became a life-and-death battle closely tied to the future fate of Anadelure—facing the ambitious and conqueror-prone Beruglios II. The war began. Isfahan, Siruhaen, and the Ladruv farmer revolutionary army led by Esha united to launch a fierce attack against Beruglios II and gained certain advantages. At this critical moment, Sana fell into Beruglios II's trap and was captured in the capital, Abalin.
During her captivity, Beruglios II told Sana about his origins. It turned out he was the half-brother of the Desert King and also had a half-sibling relationship with Esha. Additionally, Sana met Sophia, the daughter of Guroju. When the prince led his army to break into the capital Abalin, the twoed Beruglios II's arsenal. Sophia chose to stay in the capital, while Sana escaped back to the allied forces and revealed Beruglios II's origins to the Desert King.
In the allied forces, Sana met Queen Lydia. Due to the allies' astonishment at the relationship between the Desert King and Beruglios II, they began to doubt the Desert King. The alliance also split due to differing beliefs. After the Desert King's confession and persuasion, the allies reconciled and launched a full-scale assault on the capital Abalin. During the war, Guroju was killed, and Beruglios II also perished in a duel with the Desert King. Beruglios II's reign was finally overthrown, and Esha became the king of Ladruv.
Chapter
"What's going on?"
In the dimly lit room, only the flickering candlelight danced. Standing before the Dark King, I couldn't believe what was happening before my eyes. Why would the Dark King be so similar to the Desert Prince—the one who guides Anadelure to happiness? The Dark King, who wields the darkness of this world. Isfahan and Ladruv—two countries far apart, yet their kings shared what kind of relationship? Until today, they had always been each other's archenemies. But no matter how unbelievable it seemed, it was indeed true.
Like the prince, with the same emerald eyes and elegant demeanor. But this Dark King had black hair. He turned around and smiled at me: "What's wrong? You can't even speak because you're scared?"
"You're too alike. Like your beloved man."
"Not like it at all!" I retorted, word by word, as if just waking up from a nightmare. "Although your faces are somewhat similar, it's completely different. In the prince's emerald eyes, I can see a warmth a hundred times greater than yours."
That's right! The prince never coldly laughs like this. He has an inner warmth that shines like the sun in the desert. Compared to the prince's golden hair, the Dark King's hair truly fits his name. He was also at least five years older than the prince. The prince still had a youthful air about him, but that was completely gone from the Dark King's face. However, his back and shoulders were somewhat similar in their strength. It was as if the prince of five years later.
