Time Travelling: My Love from the Royal Family

If she had called out and asked for help, Hoffman might have made up his mind to leave. But since she behaved so thoughtful and considerate, Hoffman felt uncomfortable with the idea of leaving.

"Leena, I'm sorry," he softly said. Hoffman asked his men to separate the shields and leave a gap, wide enough for him to show his face. "Huey, I swear that if you injure her fingertip, I will burn the capital of Moon Country to the ground!"

"Is that all you can do? Threaten me? That's so hilarious. Oooh, I'm scared," Huey sarcastically stated. "You have an army of two hundred thousand soldiers. Yet you are surrounded by my men. How could you still talk like that? What gave you the courage to claim that you could burn the capital of the Moon Country to the ground? Are you taking me for a fool?"

Hoffman's face turned livid. He had only brought five thousand soldiers with him now in order to launch the sudden attack. He left most of his men in the Grand Pass. His only hope at that moment was that the guarding general of Grand Pass would perceive that he a

reat army back here and destroy his enemies. But Leena just told him that the Moon Country had already taken measures at the Grand Pass as well.

"What did you do?" he asked with a stern expression on his face.

"Oh, thank you for reminding me. I must thank you for everything that you gave and did for me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to put the poison into the Grand Pass's source of water. All the soldiers there must have been poisoned by now. So unfortunately, no one can save you. We don't even need to kill them with our swords. We can easily take charge of the Grand Pass as long as they die from the poison," Leena explained.

"How dare you poison my men!" Hoffman was surprised once again. Deep inside, he was determined that he must not be captured by his enemies. If they really poisoned his men, then no one could come here to save him. His father and the officials in the imperial capital would not know about the situation here. Hoffman knew that his probability of dying just increased, so he became determined to find a way to escape.
