Chapitre 58: Meeting the Emperor [Part 1]

"You there? Why do you want to go inside the castle?" asked one of the guards.

"Oh, don't mind me, I just forgot something inside," said Aiden as he started inside as if what he was doing was nothing wrong.

"Not so fast," said the guard as he held back Aiden from going in. "What did you forget inside?"

Aiden, hearing this question, didn't know exactly how to respond as he actually had no idea what type of things the soldiers had inside the castle.

'A sword? Would that work?' Aiden thought, as this was the only thing that came to his mind.

"M-my sword, I forgot my sword," Aiden said as some hesitation could be felt in his words.

"Is that right, huh?" said the guard looking at Aiden up and down, seemingly judging him. "Alright, go in, but be quick."

Hearing the guard give him permission to go in, Aiden was extremely happy as he didn't even know if the soldiers had their swords in the castle.
