“What’re you talking about? I don’t get you. Our mother? She did…”
“No, your mother! She was the one that killed my biological parents. She killed them all! Why? She claimed she loved my father and charmed him.
I came here to kill you, but I had a re-think; you weren’t there when it happened and you knew nothing about it. But I want you to know that I’m not your sister, I’m the blood of buyeo. Which denotes we’re enemies, don’t you ever come my way coz next time I see you, I won’t have mercy!
Some people would be pretending as if they had good heart whereas they’re the devil itself. I’ll go back to where I belong to because I don’t belong here.
I’m not interested in finding the reason behind her death anymore! I’m out! Out for good!” Naomi said as tears trailed down her cheeks. Her hands were shaking as she holds her sword, Onami could easily knock out her sword but that wasn’t the right thing to do right now.
“Even if we weren’t sisters, but we grew up together. How’re you sure you’re not being decieved? Recently I found mother’s…”
“Enough…!! I don’t want to hear anything from you..” Naomi stormed out of the suite.
Though she find it hard to believe it, but the paper also point at the same thing.
She left her in tears. The thought of departing with someone she always knew as her sister hurts her a lot. But she has to, she never can tell she would be the next to hurt her someday.
“Naomi, did you really believe all these? How could she ever hurt you? Please come back home!” Onami yelled as she ran after Naomi but she took another route. Onami kept following her, and when it gets to a point Naomi stopped running.
“Stay away from me! You’re not my sister, right now you’re the daughter of the devil. Your mother was one, so get out of my way if you don’t want me to reveal your identity! I mean it.” Naomi said threateningly. Onami moved closer to her.
“You can reveal my identity doesn’t matter to me anymore, all I want is you back by my side.
Those you claimed they’re your people won’t do you no good. Maybe this was all a planned work, it’s obvious they want to broke this family apart. Please, I.. I love you Naomi. I’ll..”
“One more word and I’ll call the attentions of the people that you want to kidnap me. Get out of my way! Now!!” Naomi said, her voice was more harsh. Onami had to move backwards until she left.
“Why is this happening now? Mother should have tell us before we knew this. Why’s she trying to turn our backs against each other?” Onami lamented as she sobbed.

★Next morning>> King’s chamber★
“Your Majesty, it’s daybreak already. You have a meeting this morning.” Queen Amyra announced to the king who was still struggling to wake up.
“I can’t seem to get on my feet, my queen.” The king said weakly to the queen.
“Get me the royal doctor now!” Queen Amyra ordered the guards.
★★★
Some fishermen are seen laying helplessly beside the river coughing seriously. It started the previous night when one of them complained of his cloth being wet because he was the the last person to go to bed.
So he was drenched by the rain.
Everybody in gathering was seriously surviving with the same disease, they tried to drink some water because it started with a cough. But after they drank it, they started splitting out blood and they became tired to move.
**
★King’s chamber★
“His Majesty contacted the disease either from the water he drank,by air or by touching an inflected person Your Highness.” The royal doctor declared.
“There’s no way the king could have contacted the disease either of ways you mentioned, but that isn’t the issue now. What matters now is the cure, give His Majesty the cure.” Arthur said with a command voice.
“My Lord, Pardon me for saying this, but the disease doesn’t have a cure yet. I haven’t know it name yet and I haven’t heard about its existence… I’m..”
“You mean it has no cure? How could a disease can never be cured?! Arthur said, lividly..
“Some d…isea…ses can’t be.. cu..red my Lord..” The royal doctor stammered.
“I…” As Arthur was about saying something, a guard walked frightfully.
He walked to Arthur and whispers into his ear:
“Our fishermen has been inflicted with the disease also.”
“What?!” Arthur exclaimed on hearing the news.
“Your Highness, I’ll be back shortly..” He said and leave with the guard.
Queen Amyra give the doctor a sign of”Good job” and he bowed in return.
••
“My Lord, you can’t go in there without you covering your nose.” Some attendants said worriedly.
Arthur took the cloth from them and covers his nose before walking to the fishermen.
“Hello, can you tell me how this started?” He asked calmly, while bending to his level.
The fishermen couldn’t find words to express himself, it was as if the sickness as affected his mouth.
Arthur left him and went to the others. Some explained how it happened to him but yet he was confused.
“My Lord?” A servant said bowing and he collected the nose mask from him.
“I can’t seems to get much information from them. They hardly could talk. We need to investigate..” Arthur said.
“Also, the fishermen should be taken to an issolated place to avoid others getting inflicted with it. We’ll ask the royal doctor with his partners to find the cure.” Arthur added with a loud sigh.
“Yes, my Lord.” The guard said respectfully.

★Buyeo’s kingdom>> Court suite★
“Your Majesty, everything’s on our side. Even if we planned to attack them tonight, we shall be victorious!” A minister declared joyfully.
Though, the king’s elder brother wasn’t happy with the progress his brother was making inside of him, but he knew it was for the better of their kingdom.
“My fellow people.” The king spoke.
“Let’s not make it quite fast; let’s make the strong ones among them to be weak. Then we shall be victorious. I was even planning on inviting their King here in an attempt to make an apology which shall be an avenue for us to.” The king continued.
“That seem so nice, but Your Majesty, don’t you think we should go there ourselves instead so there won’t be suspicitions?” Another subject said.
“It’s correct, yes we can also use. I support his suggestion Your Majesty..”
“Yes, we all agree with that!” The council choursed.

Joseon’s kingdom
The king sickness and as well as some king’s men that have been inflicted with the disease life seemed to have left their bodies despite the prescription from the royal doctor with other physicians.
Arthur make sure he supervised those who were put in charge to give them the medicine,so he couldn’t say anything to what caused the ineffectiveness of the medicines.
He was distraught seeing their people in pains, some of his warriors are also victims. But yet he could do nothing to save them.

Naomi went to the prime minister suite because he had summoned for her earlier that morning. She was warmly welcome by him.
“If you’re really my grandfather and my mother was the former princess of buyeo, that denotes I’m of buyeo’s blood.” Naomi said.
“Yes.” The prime minister said.
“Who else knew about your identity?” She inquired further.
“No one knows. I wanted to take you back with me on the day we conquer the joeson.” He explained.
“How did you come here? How come no one..”
“I’ll tell you later when we get to buyeo, I need you to do something.” The prime minister said in a whispers.
“Something? Like what exactly?” Naomi asked.
“I want you to teach someone a lesson for me.” He said.
“Like beat the person up?” She suggested.
“No.” Prime minister remarked.
“I want you to take the queen life!” He dropped the bombshell.
“What?!” She exclaimed.
“Why do you want her dead?”
“I know you would ask me that. She needs to be eliminated out of our way before we can make our next move. She would be a problem to us.
Also, I need you to tell me the truth about this, are you really the thieves?” He asked, Naomi raised a brow in shock.
“I don’t understand…”
“By now, you should have known I knew you better than you know yourself.”
“We aren’t two but and it’s only me.” Naomi said.
“Tell me the truth.” He persuaded further.
“I can’t let you arrest her. She’s my…”
“She isn’t. I can help you fulfill your wish by killing her.” He declared.

“Please save father’s life.” Sapphire cried out, sitting closer to him.
“Our physicians are trying their best to save the lives of the inflicted person. It’s just a matter of time, my love.” Arthur said.
He grasp her left hand, touch it and say lovingly to her:
“His Majesty will be okay. I won’t let him die, my love.” His words pierce her heart and she flash a smile at him.
“Can you please stay with me tonight?” Sapphire asked with a pleading tone.
“You haven’t sleep with either…”
“Sshhh…!!” Arthur place a finger on her lips preventing her from talking further.
“Alright, for you I’ll tonight.” He said.
“Thank you very much husband.”

King’s chamber
The king’s seen struggling to rose up from the bed he had layed on for hours.
“Guards… guards.. guards..!!” He called weakly but no one comes to his aid.
Just then, the prime minister walked in majestically.
“Your Majesty, how’s your health?” He said jeeringly.
“I know this’s your handiwork!” The king said in a little harsh tone.
“I want you to declare to the council that I’m the next king cuz you’ll die soon.” He moved closer to him and sat beside him.
“I can never do such a stupid thing!” The king said lividly.
“Really?! Then, I’ll make myself the king behind you.” Prime minister said smiling devilishly..

“Your Majesty…” A guard walked into the suite, loved closer to the king and whispers something into his ear.
The king smiled afterwards.
“I have good news!” He announced.
“The King of joseon’s also inflicted and many of the king’s men and their warriors have become powerless. So, we’ll go there to apologize. We’ll make them believe we really wants the war to end.” The king said.
“I don’t think they would fall into such trap.” The king elder brother said.
“They’ll…” The king said, staring into his eyes daringly.

Later in the day
The prime minister was coming back from a meeting. When he stepped into his suite, he hang his cloth on the wall.
After he was fully seated, some assassin appears to him.

Onami ran home to fetch something. When she got home, she searched for her mother’s treating box. And head straight to the palace.

“What’re you looking for here? Young lady.” The guards asked in an unfriendly manner.
“I’m a physician, I’m here to treat those who falls into a victim of the disease.” Onami replied calmly.

“Yes, I’m. I’m a wizard in my profession.” Onami said.
“Then, follow me.” One of them said.
