A voice called from behind. Arslan turns and his eyes widen when he sees a sword aiming at the throat of his friends. Betty and Roland on their knees. Arslan takes few steps back.
"Hahahahahaha I told you, hero of peasant. Arslan Wigglesworth. I am always a step ahead of you. Now chose who would you save, your friends or the princess" A bow from the royal guards aim their arrows and gun rifle at a firing range at the princess.

The crowd drifted in conversation with tension as they watched Arslan in action. They watch the unexpected drama unfolding. Thaddeus got up from the ground to his feet holding his spear.
"You have a lot of nerve Arslan to attack a noble war knight. It seems the name hero of peasant has gotten in to your head. What you have done is treason and you will be executed by the law" Thaddeus speaks.
Arslan wonders what he could do to get out of this situation. if he were to reach for his friends. He won’t reach Felicia in time. If he were to save Felicia, his friends die. The two persons he loved the most are going to die again right before his eyes if he doesn’t act quickly. He turns his face and he looks. He could see prince Scriven walking into the arena. He stood beside Princess Felicia.
"Huh! Where are the demi human knights?, did they fall and die on the way. Arslan grunted his teeth. He needed them in such a time like these. Arslan notices Scriven illustrating with his hand. The illustration interpreted" buy me sometime, jacket"
Arslan immediately understood what he had to do.
"hahahahaha" Arslan chuckles
Thaddeus stretched his spear aiming at him.
The royal guard stormed in the arena drawing their swords.
"Do you know the reason why I am trying to kill Vermilion". Arslan questioned Thaddeus
"Huh! Vermilion surprised at this sudden talk,
"I don’t have an idea, care to enlighten me"
"Vermilion wants to kill the prince. I mean kill prince Darius just as he killed the king"
"What? Thaddeus shouted, treasoooon"
“Oh" will you just shut uuup..Thaddeus and listen " Arslan shouted as he begins to kneel on the ground. He looks up at Vermilion,

in a blink of an eye, she swings her sword sending the guards head flying into the air as she chop down the royal guards with her sword before they could realize what was happening. They have all been slain"
The other four integrity knights appeared in the arena protecting the princess when Arslan shouted
"This tournament is a ruse. The crown prince killed the king and frame it on the princess" the crowd drifted in serious conversation.
