[ HERE IS THE FULL CHAPTER FOR PREVIOUS TEASER....ENJOY READING🌈]
It was past 10th hour at mid-night when Suyin returned back to Dai household. He slid his way bypassing the courtyard but had to standstill when his peripheral vision caught a thief-alike figure.
Dai Tiya warily climbed down the wall that was built high surrounding the two storey resident in the centre. Dai spouse were already asleep leaving behind some patrolling night guards. In the veil of darkness, the young lady of the household has to sneak inside her own house like some kind of thief, how irony!
For being stuck in such ridiculous situation Dai Tiya wholly blamed it upon Suyin who hadn't shown his figure till late despite saying he would return by 8th hour in the night. It had exhausted all her patience when she perusade the anxiously worried Dai spouse and finally send them to rest all this while continuously reassuring them that she would certainly dispatch guards searching for Suyin overall the village. After which Dai Tiya quietly went out the resident herself.
[8th HR IN THE NIGHT- 8PM]
Returning at this late hour, if someone were to find her , it wouldn't harvest any good fruits.
Dai Tiya with the help of her soft and quick footsteps arrived before a wooden door on which a number of deities were sculpted seeming very life-like. The old and grimy door specified that it hadn't been used very often. Just as Dai Tiya reached forth her hands to grab the half circle wooden doorknob she felt someone gently tapping on her left shoulder. Starlted by the sudden approach she jumped back alerted, assuming a defense position and only relaxed her wariness after identifying the person who had suddenly popped out from behind her.

The two figures strolled their way arriving inside Dai Tiya's boudoir. At this time, enclosed within the four walls of a tranquil chamber, their former sibling's feeling collapsed which was then replaced by heavy presence of Lord and his sub-ordinate. A gloomy atmosphere shot up engulfing the entire space.
[BOUDOIR- A WOMAN'S PRIVATE ROOM]
" I am telling you, it is impossible to arrange an assain. The emperor is well protected by our own people and not to exxagrate, they are the best of our kind. Even a small ant wouldn't escape their hawk like eyes."
Dai Tiya expressed her views feeling annoyed and at the same time sounding a bit proud. "Suyin, we cannot even get close to the emperor let alone make a move against him."
Suyin sneered, visibly displeased with her wording-
" I do not believe there is no way out. If we can not directly stab him dead then change the approach and aim at his throne.Buy his ministers along the way incite the rebels. We can at least shake his standing."
" Suyin, that's where I am confused and that too beyond understanding. In the entire Kai no one wants to rebel and those filthy goons, their voices favouring the current emperor. What a crack-proof shell did that creature manage to wear all this time!"
Dai Tiya huffed as anger swelled up at the thought that no matter what plans they made each of them failed before they could implement those plots properly.
"Is that so?? Then what about other princes? I suppose they would like to sit on that throne, high above everyone else. Can we not bait the throne then lure the princes promising them supreme power."
Dai Tiya examined Suyin with her doubtful gaze- "Suyin, in case you have forgotten about the responsible elder brother ploy that the emperor has managed to put up with since he was young. A perfect coverage which has proven itself as an ace card for controlling those useless princes. Your suggestion is out of reach. I thought you would have known better."
Suyin lowered his head silently reading the patterns crafted on the wooden floor. He thought to himself- How could he forget? The perfect act of wolf in sheep clothing.
Once the past sufferings resurfaced, his blood boiled screaming vengeance. Each of them will pay and will pay hundredfolds more. He had returned as their Karma. He wouldn't let them die nor let them live. He would make sure to skin them alive. Torture them inside those dark and wet cells till their eyes became nothing but empty sockets.
"Suyin...
Dai Tiya anxiously called out for Suyin whose body kept shivering as if he was thrown outside in cold snow, his eyes bloodshot as they seemed beastly enough to devour whoever dare look straight into them and his pupils transformed vertically slanted like that of venomous serpent hissing it's tongue out in front of his appetizing prey.
Heart-Devil. It was the only word that she managed to prob out her head. It was definitely another seizure attack.Thinking more about it, wasn't this his 3rd seizure and it has reappeared shortly after three days. This isn't something worth celebrating.
"Suyin..." Dai Tiya cautiously nudged his arm. "This is bad. We need to find the cure as soon as possible."
The intense burning in his heart subsided slowly as he heard Dai Tiya constantly calling his name. His unstable emotions cooled down and he was able to vaguely nod in affirmation. They do need to find the cure. The sooner, the better. He too do not want the curse tormenting his body and soul again.
" The sword. Where is the sword Asahi? Did you manage to find it?"
Suyin asked in between his heavy breaths.
[ASAHI- RISING SUN]
Dai Tiya looked over the armchair where Suyin was casually seated. Just now the Heart-Devil acted up, inviting yet another seizure attack. It wasn't that they didn't manage to find the information relating sword Asahi but could Suyin bear listening to her next words. Should she trigger another attack?
Suyin grew impatient with her stubborn silence. The moment he wanted to dissolve the topic, unexpectedly Dai Tiya decided to speak up.
" That....Your sword....We heard Asahi is in Prince General's hand. He kept it with him after the death of General Yin."
