Silla

Seyeon's POV

"Rraaahhhh!!!", blood splattered on Jeongguk's face as he attacked king Yunki.

Seongho's eyes widened in amusement, "Amazing!!!!"

"Ugh..." Yunki grabbed his chest, blood spilling all over.

Jeemin quickly held him in his arms, "YUN-"

"JIANG!!!!! HOW DARE YOU BETRAY OUR OLD MASTER!!!! YOU BACKSTABBING TRAITOR!!!" I quickly cut off Jeemin before he could shout 'Yunki hyungnim' and guarded him and Yunki while shouting at Jeongguk.

"Impressive, you're quite bold to shout in front of me like that and aren't you way too loyal to your old master?!" Seongho asked me with an expression that I couldn't read.

I saw Jeongguk's eyes getting wide but he quickly composed himself and replied, "Milady, you should apologize to His Majesty. Besides, now we are all under His Majesty's mercy. The old master means nothing to us now!"

I glanced behind me to take a look at Jeemin, who was still holding Yunki in his arms.

I looked at Seongho and knelt down immediately  before things got more ugly, "I-I'm very sorry, Your Majesty! I'm a stupid woman. I didn't understand the true purpose behind your decision! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!" I bowed politely in front of him and begged for his forgiveness.

To my much surprise, he grabbed my hand and pulled me up, "It would be a shame to punish you. You'll serve as a beautiful gift to emperor Hao so I don't wish to punish you anyways! I'm glad that you understood your mistake! You're forgiven!" He said and turned to face his royal guards.

"Take this merchant's corpse out of here and throw him in the lake!" He ordered.

"Y-yes, Your Majesty!" The guards bowed.

"And prepare for my marriage with this beautiful lady-"

"I WILL NEVER MARRY YOU! YOU ARE EVIL!!! YOU KILLED MY HUSBAND. YOU'RE A MURDERER!!!" Jeemin stood up and yelled. "IS THERE NO ONE WHO CAN GIVE ME JUSTICE???!!!" He looked around the court but everyone had their heads down.

"COWARDS!!!! ARE YOU ALLL EVEN MEN-"

"Enough, my to-be queen! Enough! I know it is hard for you but you yourself know that I can give you a better life." Seongho smirked at him and turned to face Taeheong, "You...eunuch, you can do whatever your master asks, right?" He asked and Taeheong nodded.

"Then persuade her to accept me by this evening or you'll be the next to lose your life! The court is dismissed!" Seongho said and left. The guards carried Yunki away. Jeemin was about to follow them but I stopped him.

Some maids approached us, "We are appointed to show you your rooms!"

I nodded and held Jeemin's hand and followed the maids. Taeheong followed us. I turned back to see some servants were taking Seongjin and Jeongguk with them to show them their room.

On the other hand,

3rd person POV

The guards threw Yunki into the lake and left while sighing heavily.

Yunki was drowning deep down into the lake.

Suddenly he opened his eyes.

In the palace,

Jeemin's POV

Seyeon, me and Taeheong entered into our room with a depressed face.

"Please call us if you need anything!" The maids said and left, closing the door behind them.

All three of us sat down on the floor quietly and looked at each other with a sad expression and then burst out laughing uncontrollably.

"Oh God Jeemin, your acting was incredible...hahahahaahaha!!!" Seyeon exclaimed while laughing.

"You weren't bad yourself! The way you guarded me and Yunki hyungnim when I healed him! Even Prince Jeongguk's acting was great!" I chuckled.

"Not to mention Seongho's cheesy lines. Only if he knew you were a boy..hahahaha!!!" Taeheong laughed. "'I can give you a better life'" Taeheong laughed imitating him and we joined him.

"Well, I tried not to cringe at his words...hahaha! But Thank you, Seyeon for saving me from blowing our covers. I was almost about to yell 'Yunki Hyungnim!'. Even though I was prepared for this, I still got worried sick at the moment!" I sighed.

"I understand!" Seyeon patted on my shoulder.

"To be honest, it was indeed a difficult job!" Taeheong said and I recalled our plan.

"No matter what Seongho asks, make sure to follow it even if it sounds unjust. He is our only key to reach Cheena." I recalled what Yunki hyungnim had told us on our way to Silla.

"The worst thing that might happen is Seongho killing one of us! Jeemin, make sure that if such thing happens, you are near the person so that you can immediately heal them with your skills before they die!"  Yunki hyungnim's clear instruction was that. So when Seongho ordered Jeongguk to kill Yunki hyungnim, we all knew what was needed to be done. I'm just glad that everything went smoothly with everyone's co-ordination.

Flashback~

As soon as Yunki hyungnim came closer to me, I gestured Jeongguk that we were ready. He gave us a tight nod and as soon as he attacked Yunki hyungnim, I grabbed him and Seyeon came in front of us to guard us and distract Seongho.

Yunki coughed blood.

"Heal!" I whispered after covering his chest with my hand.

He was breathing heavily as he opened his eyes to look at me and smiled to indicate that he was fine. I sighed in relief and smiled back. Then he again posed like a lifeless being. At that moment, Seyeon turned back to check on us. As soon as she found everything was going well, she knelt down in front of Seongho to beg for mercy and I took this moment to compose myself for my act.

Flashback ends~

"Jeemin, are you listening?" I came out of my thoughts as I heard Seyeon's voice.

"Sorry? What did you say?" I asked.

"What are we going to do next?" Taeheong asked.

"First of all, you go and tell the king that I'm ready to marry him. Then we'll have to think of a way to dismiss the Cheena forces from this palace else Yunki hyungnim won't be able to enter and win against him!"

"Don't worry! Leave everything to me!" Taeheong smirked mischievously.

I grinned at him and he left to meet the king.

"Ugh! When can I leave this place!" I whined as I laid down.

"A lady doesn't lay down like that!" Seyeon complained with a mischievous smile.

"Shut up!" I rolled my eyes.

"Aish...that damn black hole. Now my entire life seems as dark as that black hole-ahhh~~~" I closed my eyes as bright light fell on them.

I opened my one eye to discover that Seyeon had angled the mirror on the table in such a way that the bright sunlight was getting reflected and fell directly on my face.

"What on earth are you doing?" I asked, shifting from my place to avoid the light.

"Lightening up your 'dark life'." She said with a straight face as she turned the mirror towards her"

"Light up?.....SEYEON-AH~~"

"What? You almost startled me!"

"WORMHOLE!!!"

"Yeah....I guess it would have been better if you would've fallen into a wormhole instead of a black hole. Probably your life would have been better!" She chuckled and then suddenly stopped and looked at me with wide eyes after realizing.

"Wormhole! Opposite of black holes!" She murmured with her wide eyes.

"And since the black hole time travel theory proved to be true, then wormhole is the way out of here!" I said excitedly.

"But we probably came here when a black hole opened, so in order to return, I wormhole needs to open! But how will we understand when it will open and where?" Seyeon asked,

"The three kingdoms are in the west and opposite to them is Cheena. If a wormhole is exactly the opposite of a blackhole, then, according to my calculations, it will open somewhere in Cheena in six months!" I said.

In the king's room,

3rd Person POV

"You sure are an impressive eunuch! It didn't take you long to persuade her! Your old master didn't lie when he told me that you all are unique and talented!" Seongho seemed pleased, while Taeheong bowed to him with a satisfied smile.

"Very well, I shall send all of you to Cheena as a gift! Emperor Hao will be impressed!" Seongho nodded at his own decision. "Hmmm...actually I shall send you all today itself, I've waited for too long to find perfect gifts for him and now that the search is over, I must not wait more!"

"Head eunuch!!" Seongho called the head eunuch and he entered the room.

"Greetings, your Majesty, how may I help you?" He aksed.

"Prepare the ships, I shall send my valuable gifts to Cheena today."

"As you wish, your Majesty!"

"Oh and one more thing, I heard that pirates have increased. So I would like to send the Cheena forces with the gifts as security! In fact the kingdom is safe now, I don't need them anymore!"

"Ok!" The head eunuch bowed and Taeheong grinned. He was happy because he didn't have to do anything and the Cheena forces were dismissed!

!!Fate is really with them!!

??Or maybe not??
