Level Infinity Weakest King

Chapter 79 - An Attempt Of Assassination

"No... don't go..."

"Wait..."

"Don't leave me..."

"NOOOOO!!!"

"Huff huff...", queen Elena suddenly woke from a sleep in which she was actually experiencing a nightmare.

"W-what happened Eli!!?", Ling alex came running into her chambers when he heard her scream so loudly.

He looked at her sitting upright.

"Huh...? Eli...? You...", he walked towards her and immeditely hugged her.

"Al-ex?", she was confused when he hugged her.

She was already sweating because of the nightmare she had and now suddenly being confused was something she didn't expect.

"What happened Alex? Are you alright?", she asked when she saw Alex crying.

"Yes...", he immeditely wiped his tears and looked at her with a gentle gaze.

"Thank God... but why did you scream?", he immeditely asked her after looking at her sweating.

"Well, I had a nightmare...", Elina said this with a sad expression.

"A nightmare? Haha, what did you see?", he tried to lift the mood up but it seemed as if it was futile.

She still kept her head lowered with the same sad expression even now.

"Tell me... what did you see?", he too became serious when he asked the second time.

She nodded her head and started to say about the nightmare.

"I saw Rex, entering the room and sitting beside me... I was sleeping on his lap as a baby. It was so warm and comfortable..."

"Eh? Rex!!!? That's a good dream! How is that even a nightmare?", he spoke in between even before she could complete her words.

"No, it was good till then, but what happened after that scared me a lot... I don't want that to happen again...", she was trembling and her words were wavy as if she was barely able to speak.

Alex immediately pats her head and says, "Don't keep it in your heart, it will become a burden. Just say it."

After Elina heard those words, she was about to speak when she suddenly realised that Alex would also get emotional and sad if he heard what she was going to say.

She was a bit hesitant but when she saw Alex's expecting expression she couldn't hold it in and spilled it out.

"I was sleeping on his lap and it was warm so I wanted to see what that feeling was. That's why I opened my eyes only to find Rex leaving... I tried to extend my hand and stop him but suddenly he vanished.", she completely told everything about it and then suddenly everything turned into silence.

"...", Alex couldn't find the right words to console her.

She then said, "Leave this Alex... it was just a nightmare but tell me, why were you worried and had a happy expression when you saw me earlier...?"

Alex averted his eyes because he didn't want to tell about it but Elina started to pout.

"Hmph! I won't talk to you then from now on!", she turned her face the other way and continued her pouting.

"Uhhh... fine. I'll Tell you but don't be embarrassed after hearing it....", was what Alex told while staring at her.

She immediately looked towards Alex and said, "Why would I be embarrassed?"

She was confused since she didn't know anything about what had happened to her. She just thought that it was another normal day just like everyday but little did she know that she had been sleeping for around 5 whole months.

When Alex said all this she was shocked more than embarrassed.

"I literally slept the whole time!!?", she didn't know what to say because she was indeed embarrassed too.

She was considered to be perfect and everything that she did was with great accuracy but due to her falling asleep for last 5 months a lot of work had to been seen by Alex.

Also because he couldn't manage all of them, a lot of works were riled up.

"Sigh, I need to work from tomorrow and put twice the efforts as before.", she was worried now because many things might have changed in the past 5 months and many new rates might have been applied.

"But you need to consult a doctor...", Alex was still worried because the uncurable disease was cured just like that.

She shook her head and said, "We will but I think it's like the same miracle that has happened in the past."

Elina's words seemed right but for some reason thinking it as a miracle didn't seem to be justifiable to Alex.

"Hmm, alright. Sleep and get some rest for now, I'll be back within an hour. I have still some works left.", Alex was working when he had heard her scream due to which he had to leave all the works and run straight to her room.

Now he had to finish thebworks before tomorrow's dawn so a lot of work was left which couldn't have been finished even if he had pulled an all-nighter.

"Stop stop, I know you very well, when you say that you have a very little work then that would mean that a lot of work would be piled up in front of you.", she laughed a bit and said that.

Alex laughed shamelessly too along with her.

"Just come and sleep, we will talk about other things tomorrow.", it was as if she ordered Alex which he couldn't ignore.

"Okay fine, I'll see the works sometime later...", saying that he immediately jumped on the bed and lied down.

Both of them chatted a bit and slowly fell asleep in each other's arms.

MEANWHILE...

"Are you sure that there will be no guard in this area?", someone wearing black coloured clothes with a black mask and looking like a typical assassin said these words while staring at the castle of Rhone where Alex and Elina were sleeping right now.

"Yep, I'm completely sure. Their eldest son, the trashy prince had run away long ago which is why that toom might be empty with no guards...", said the other person who had the same clothing as that of the earlier person.

"Good, but don't you think that we might end up being dead...?"

"Why? Because of the king?"

They kept on conversing for sometime when suddenly one of them said, "Assassina shouldn't talk much while they are on mission... just focus on the mission man!"

"Sorry 167 bro...", said the other person.

"It's fine 256..."

It seemed as if they were given numbers which depicted as their names. Their real identity was kept a secret since they couldn't afford personal relationship or enemity to ruin the mission.

They then ran towards the castle onmybti fine Manu guards watching over the places.

They were indeed right that prince Rex's old Room was left unguarded. There were no guards in the garden either which was basically visible from the room's window and that was why anyone could get inside Rex's Room from that way.

"We need to take full caution, do you understand?", whatever both were planning and thinking was almost perfect.

They could have actually assassinated the empress for which they had actually came for since they heard that she was bedridden and the king kighybbe overworking himself.

But Elina and Alex were just about to fall asleep when they suddenly felt the unknown magical surge.

They understood that someone was nearing the palace and was basically trying to infiltrate it.

It was a simple task for them because they both were stronger than WAR LORDS who were deeply respected for their strengths.

So the moment both the assassins set their foot in the palace premises, Daryun, Narsus and 2 more guards of highest order were alerted and so were Alex and Elina.

"Okay so let's go!", the moment they said this, they were surrounded by all the 4 of them.

"Ehhh!!?", they weren't able to see through their strengths.

"Damn! We were given wrong informations!!!", was what one of them shouted.

King Alex and Elina arrived immediately to take a look at the captured assassins.

"Tell me, whom did you wanted to assassinate and who was the one that ordered you to do this!!?", King Alex asked while giving a domineering look.

At the same time Elina was looking at Alex who was interrogating them when suddenly the number 167 spit something from his mouth towards Elina.

It seemed like a needle which had deadly poison.

"ELINAA!!!", Alex shouted since he saw him throwing this towards her.

Thanks to Elina's quick reflexes she formed a magical barrier but it was not stable because of her unstable mana which she hadn't allowed to flow since the past 5 months.

That was the reason why the needle penetrated the barrier and went forward to pierce her heart.

Alex was running with his full light and trying to cast a magic barrier that would surround Elina but he was too far and it was the first time he had imagined something like that.

So he wasn't able to form.

"NOOOO!!!", Alex shouted.

"Ahhh!!!", Elina closes her eyes tightly.

"Ka ka ka ka! It's deadly poison from the poison lily! It can even kill a fill fledged Dragon! Ka ka ka!"

The guards tried to use their energy to make them unconscious but they somehow escaped after spitting the similar poison towards them which they tried to block by using a magic barrier which gave them a chance to run away.

"Ka ka ka! She will die for sure!", he was definitely laughing a lot, but little did they know that the scene at the palace was a bit different.
