I'm Stepping Down From The Throne Chapter 119
The guys were sitting around the lunch table at the dormitories when Noah spoke up."it's unlike elin to invite us like that." He said looking pensive."What do you mean?" Azeph asked.He had been wondering why Elinor wanted to do this all of a sudden but he had given up trying to figure out her intentions. She would tell them whatever she needed when the time comes. Although he had his suspiciousn about what she was going to say."Well, she never does anything before being sure that it suits everyone's plans, she's very considerate from that point, but today she just came out of the blue and said that she organized a tea party for us she didn't even ask if we had any plans that day or anything." Noah said."Did you have plans?" Azeph asked with a smile."It's not about that," Noah said with a sigh, "I didn't have any plans and even if I did I would have cancelled them for her. It's just that this is very unlike her..." "I guess she does have something to tell us. But still, Whatever

The cup that Louis had been holding shattered on the floor and everyone looked at Elinor with shocked silence for a while before a sriken expression overrode their faces."What's the meaning of this, Elin," Louis asked While Azeph stoor from his chair his eyes wide as he reached for her."You drank that didn't you?" He said his voice calm.A bit too calm to call it composed. He was still in shock. She looked at them, with a troubled expression, mixed with anger. How in the world did this happen?! She needed to think fast before it was too late.She needed to figure this out."Everyone, be careful, don't touch that tea it's poisoned..." She said.They all looked at each other, they knew that she was unrivaled in the domain of herbs. She could tell that they were all looking at her with a mixture of hope that she was making a mistake but Elinor knew that she wasn't mistaken.There was no mistaking the distinct smell of this tea. It was exactly the same as that day. She wasn't going to m

Azeph felt like he had been stabbed on the chest when he saw Elinor's hands filled with blood. He watched her as she went limp in his arms blood covering the front of her dress and tickling out of her lips in a thin line staining over her porcelain skin.His hands trambled as he held her in his arms and his mind raced with millions of thoughts. "Elin..." His voice whispered but she didn't answer. Her eyes were closed and she remained listless in his arms her head tilted to the side.His mind was in jumbles and he was about to scream in madness. He couldn't lose her, this can't be happening. He can't live without her, she can't leave him like this. Not when they promised to spend their lives together."She's still alive, but her pulse is way too weak." Louis said as he took her wrist and checked her pulse, something that Azeph counldn't even think about doing."I..." Azeph mumbled still in shock."Get it together," Louis said in a hard tone that shook Azeph and made him snap out of hi

The doctor looked at Azeph and shook his head hopelessly. Azeph felt as if his world collapsed with that single motion and he felt himself take one step forward then wobble for a moment before pulling himself together and walking toward him and standing in front of him."How's her condition?" He asked quietly."Not very good I am afraid. Her body is under so much strain. It seems to have been a very strong poison." The doctor said darkly, "Her organs are barely holding on as it is. And I can't chance to give her any calming medicine because I'm afraid that they would react with the poison and make her state worse. If only you knew the nature of her poison..." The doctor finished and Azeph sighed and stepped back.Louis who was silently standing behind him stepped forward."I'm afraid that we still don't know the nature of the poison. We will need an investigation to figure that out." Louis lied easily.Meanwhile, Azeph fought not to clench his hands into fists. He knew that divulging

"So in the end it happened,..." The headmaster said with a sigh as he watched the doctor leave the room.Future who was by his side made his way toward the side cabinet and pulled out a bottle of whiskey pouring himself a cup and offering one to both Louis and the headmaster.Louis refused, and the headmaster gratefully agreed taking the cup and downing it in one gulp. The poor man was so stressed and worried that he was taking soliste in alcohol."She was going to tell them everything today..." Louis said and Future looked at them quizikally."Everything about what?"He asked as he walked toward them his cup in his hand."She was going to leave the Acedemy in the end of the year," Louis said."Why?" Future asked, "It took the headmaster so much effort to convince his majesty to let her come back." "The situation with the neightboring countries is already unstable thanks to the recent events. They think that our monarchy is falling appart. She needs to be there and set an example to m

Pain… So much pain. It hurt everywhere. It hurt to breath, it hurt to move, it hurt to even be alive.How long did she have to wait for the pain to stop? How long will this go on. Why was her body hurting so much that she felt like she was being ripped apart from inside out.A liquid built up in her throat and she fought hard to ignore it. But her body’s natural reaction was much stronger than her willpower. When she coughed, she could feel the liquid being projected out of her mouth. Probably another gulp of blood seeping from inside her. But the excruciating pain the resulted on her cough was so blinding and painful that she thought that she was going to die.But her body wasn’t this graceful or merciful to her. The pain still has to continue because her body still choose to fight against the poison. Even though she was so tired that she was starting to wish for death.She heard voices around her and felt someone press something soft against her mouth.“She’s in pain, she needs more

Elinor slowly opened her eyes to the sunlight. She slowly moved her body wincing when she realized that her sore muscles and organs were not ready for her to move yet.But the excruciating pain that felt as if she was being ripped apart fro the inside out wasn’t there anymore. She was going to be okay. She was going to live.“You’re awake…” Said someone from her bedside and she turned her head around to find herself looking at her with concern in his eyes.“Louis….” She whispered her voice croaked and her words coming out heavy on her tongue.“Are you feeling any better?” He asked“Much better,” she answered with a soft smile and he nodded looking deep in thoughts.“Did something happen? Where’s Azeph?” She asked immediately noting the lack of presence of the one person she wanted to see the most.“He’s still outside looking into your case. He went out as soon as he made sure that the antidote was working last night. He had been investigating since then and now he’s looking into thing

Azeph stepped out of the residence that was reserved for Elinor and made his way toward the one place he needed to make sure of first before anything else. The record room.The security within the Royal academy’s grounds was well maintained by a group of thorough and competent security experts who were trained at the capital. They were as good as royal knights when it came to their combat ability and some of them even used to be knights at the royal guard but decided to leave for this job because it held less stress and political issues.Azeph knew some of those knights but the person he knew the most was their commander. The man who was leading security system at the academy was no one other than Azeph’s instructor, the man who thought him everything from how to hold a sword to how to become a swordsman.“Are you going to see Captain Hugh?” Will asked and Azeph nodded silently.Captain Hugh was a strong man. Just plain strong and the perfect image of a leader ready to go into a battl

The sun shone through the cathedral’s colored glass window as Elinor knelt before her uncle and he put the crown on her head.Before she knew it, she was reciting the pledge that she had known by heart since she was a young girl running around the castle walls with her cousins.She was no longer that young girl. Nor was she the fiancé of the future king or the daughter of the duke. She wasn’t someone’s daughter or their wife or sister. She was her own person. She was the future queen. The person who was going to stand at the top of this country and lead it into a new future.“Hail to the crown princess!” Said her uncle as he stepped back to let her stand up and turn around.Elinor looked down at the crowd to find it filled with familiar faces. Unlike the last time she stood there with Nicolas by her side, she didn’t feel remotely as alone as she felt back then.In contrary, she felt like no matter what path she took, she would never be alone because there are always going to be peopl

“Azeph! Calm down!” Will said taking his arm and pulling him back.Azeph wanted to shake his friend’s arm away but he took a deep breath instead and closed his eyes down trying hard to compose himself.“Call the guards,” He said again this time his voice more calm and collected.Louis sighed and nodded toward Alan who left the room looking for the guards.“We’re going to need a doctor for Noah,” Azeph finally said leaning against the bed and checking on Noah who was still unconscious,“It must have been a hard blow,” He said with a worried glance toward Louis who nodded.“If you promise that you’re under control I will go call for a doctor for Noah. We need him to wake up and tell us what happened anyway since those knights clearly don’t know what’s going on,” Louis answered,“I am under control,” he told Louis who nodded and left the room quietly.Azeph looked around the room. There was no sign of struggle and Noah was on the ground near the chair he must have been using to sit by El

Azeph leaned down in the bed pressing a kiss to Elinor’s forehead. He watched her sleep peacefully for a moment before making his way out of the room to find the guys waiting for him.“Ready?” He asked them. And they all nodded with determination.“I am counting on you,” He told them.He made his way down the stairs as they followed him. Once he was outside he mounted his horse and galloped out of there followed by Will, Louis and Alan.Noah had chosen to stay there and keep Elinor company until she woke up while Stella was still away dealing with the students at the academy.He said that he had a bad feeling since all this started and insisted on remaining by her side and Azeph agreed appointing some guards to them to make sure that they both remained safe.Lloyd went to the artisan’s workshop before them and was supposed to assert the situation by the time they got there.At the entrance of the academy, they found a car ready for them as the captain had promised and they abandoned t

After that Azeph left the security team’s central building and made his way back toward the residence. By now, Louis must be done spreading out word of Elinor’s poisoning and the Academy must be greatly disrupted and shaken.The perfect opportunity to look for the culprit. As soon as he got there he found Noah and Alan waiting for his return.“Did you find something out?” Noah asked him and Azeph shook his head.“I want you to head down there and help Will look through the records for anything that might catch your attention.” He told Noah and he nodded.“Of course! Stella is waiting for Louis to come back so that she can start her investigation,” He added.“Stella is the best when it comes to gathering information. But we have someone much better than her. I sent him to look into things too,” He said,“Why don’t you go help Stella with her investigation. You might find something useful. Ask Daisy to discretely help you too, you and Stella will stand out if you ask too many questions,
