Chapter 998 Meeting the King of the Huns

    Chapter 998 Meeting the King of the Huns


    The atmosphere in the car turned quiet and solemn. The jovial and joyous feeling took a strange turn


    just because of an innocent gesture.


    The Royal Pce was located at Royal City and its grandeur clearly surpassed that of all the other


    twelve cities. Jack and Amanda were mesmerized by what they saw.


    Amanda was in awe as she eximed, “Wow… I’ve never seen such a beautiful ce in Snowy in!”


    Daylight started to fade as night fell and the streetmps turned on and lit up the streets while the


    After living in the north for all their lives, they were already used to the short days and long nights of the


    north.


    However, the lights all around made Amanda feel as though she had entered into a different world.


    “Amanda, you’ll be living in this ce from today onwards.” Cynthia said tenderly to Amanda and


    immediately Amanda turned around to look at Cynthia with her sparkling eyes. Then suddenly it was as


    if she had recalled something and her eyes lost their sparkle as she softly mumbled, “Thanks, Cynthia.”


    Cynthia’s smile froze as she knew that Amanda had thought of her parents and her brother.


    However, Cynthia did not know how else to deal with the weary Amanda.


    During the time that they stayed at the small courtyard at Star City, though Amanda had settled down


    and gotten used to her, Amanda remained distant and kept her at an arm’s length.


    “Amanda, the skies will be filled with stars in the night.” Jack smiled and continued, “Your dad, mom,


    and brother had all turned into stars and will keep youpany from the skies. During the pr nights,


    they will keep youpany for even longer.”


    “Really?” Amanda raised her head and looked eagerly at Jack.


    Jack nodded and pointed outside, “You will see them when the starse out. The brightest stars will


    be them.”


    Amanda nodded and started to smile. Then she continued to look outside but this time it was not the


    streets that she was interested in but she started to search the skies eagerly for the brightest stars.


    Cynthia then looked at Jack and softly, “You’re amazing.” Jack smiled in return.


    Amanda was already at an age that she could understand the realities of life. Perhaps she also


    understood that what Jack said was a lie just tofort her.


    “Oh yes, where will we be staying?” Jack asked Cynthia.


    Cynthia smiled and then pointed ahead, “It’s at the end of this road.”


    “The end of this road?” Jack paused and then he shuddered, “If I’m not mistaken, the end of this road is


    the Royal Pce. You…”


    “Yup, I’m the Hun’s Princess and you’re the Hun’s son-inw.” Cynthia said definitively as she smiled.


    Kaboom! Her voice was like a thunderbolt and Jack was immediately stunned. Even Amanda who was


    eagerly looking out for the stars snapped her head around and stared at Cynthia in surprise.


    “Cyn… Cynthia… you’re … you’re the Princess of the Huns?” Amanda stammered as she almost


    screamed and quickly covered her mouth with her hands.


    Little did she expect that just a few days ago she was almost sold and now she was addressing nicely


    and even call this woman princess.


    The enormous turn of events caused the young Amanda’s mind to be in a nk.


    “What’s wrong?” Cynthia red at Jack and said, “Greedy Wolf, you are already the Hun’s son-inw.


    You don’t have to be so rmed.”


    “No, it’s just that I didn’t expect that your status is so high!” Jack shook his head and suppressed his


    voice.


    From the way Cynthia spoke and the fact that she had a car in this region, Jack deduced that her family


    background had a high social status but he never expected that she was the princess of the Huns!


    No status could be higher than the King of the Huns!


    “Haha… you can me it on your amnesia. But now you are home and you can rest well and take your


    time to recover your memories.” Cynthia held onto Jack’s arm and rest her head on his shoulders.


    As they were talking, the car approached the pce and as soon as they reached the closed gates,


    they were surrounded by hundreds of guards. No one coulde near to the king of the Huns but as


    they approached the car, Cynthia stuck her head out of the car.


    Boom! Immediately all the guards knelt in reverence and ced their right fist on their hearts and


    roared, “Greetings to the Princess!”


    The thunderous voices overwhelmed them and startled both Jack and Amanda.


    Their eyes were wide open as they thought that they were in a dream.


    Clunk…


    The enormous doors started to open and the car drove slowly into the pce.


    “I’ll bring you to see my father.” Cynthia said joyfully, “He will be very happy to see that you’ve


    returned.”


    “Oh, okay.” Jack nodded although he was still startled by her status.


    The pce was surrounded by high walls with golden decorations. There were many castles and each


    was solemn and grand.


    Everyone inside the pce hurried along with their heads drooped. asionally there were men


    draped in animal fur coats and armed with cold-weather weapons.


    There were also soldiers with heavy weapons patrolling the area. It was strange to have abination


    of cold weather weapons and heavy weapons but it appeared to be amon practice in the winter


    ins.


    Although the winter ins were isted, barbaric and only the fittest survived, it still kept in touch with


    the outside world and its weapons were no less advanced.


    Furthermore, when the tribes attacked the Giant city, they predominantly used heavy weapons.


    They only started to use the cold weather weapons when the Dragon Cavalry forced them to a corner.


    But Jack did not remember all these as he had lost his memories.


    Now, Jack was just as curious as Amanda as they both looked at the pce surroundings in awe.


    Screech! The car came to a stop.


    “Come, let’s go. My father is waiting for us at the Royal Pce.” Cynthia straightened her white robe


    and was first to open the door and got out of the car.


    Thereafter, Jack held onto Amanda as they followed Cynthia out of the car. The female guard


    happened to watch the entire scene.


    In the entire pce, only Medea was able toe right up to the royal pce in a car. Except that…


    The female guard became worried and turned to look towards the royal pce where dangers awaited


    them.


    She could tell from Cynthia’s expression that Cynthia was not aware of what they were walking into.


    She looked back towards Jack and Amanda who were led up the steps by Cynthia and wondered if she


    should warn Cynthia.

    Then suddenly, a soft voice sounded from behind her.


    It was the King of the Huns’ voice who said, “Perform your duties, otherwise I will cast you to the


    ves!”
