Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down

60 The comparison Alessandro mobilized the entire guard to look for the pirates, they must have April in their hiding place, but when the day began to end they still hadn't found them, Alessandro decided to use his magic to find them, until now he hadn't done so because to do so he would have to use too much magic at once and it would leave him weak for a few days, but that was a desperate situation, April must have been scared and who knows what they planned to do with her.

Alessandro channeled all his energy, called the winds and joined them, looking for April, everywhere, as he was using so much magic suddenly he began to feel dizzy, he was using Too much magic at once, but he still hadn't found it, he couldn't stop, he dug a little deeper, he could hear thousands of distant sounds at the same time, he searched for April's voice among all the sounds until he found it.

April was crying and begging him to save her, that she was very scared.

That broke his heart, he wanted to take care of her, be there with her, put his arms around her and tell her that everything would be okay, that he would go save her, with his magic he made his voice reach her, it was barely a whisper, but April could hear it.

_I'll go save you, I'll be with you soon.

Alessandro was able to find the place where they had her locked up, it was a ship hidden in the depths of a sea cave, that was why they had not been able to find the ship, if he had not used his magic he could not have found them either.

Alessandro could not take it anymore, he had completely exhausted his magic, he fell to his knees, one of the guards approached him and helped him stand up, the king asked him to take him to the barracks, he needed to rest a little before going for April, he had to go alone with his knights since he did not know if there were more spies among the marine guard.

While he was resting he called his knights, when they were all gathered they went to the port, when they met with the king, Alessandro saw his brother among the knights.

_ What are you doing here Cassian? _I'm also a gentleman brother, I know I'm not in my best shape, but I'm still useful, let me accompany you.

Alessandro had completely emptied his magic when looking for April, in the fight he was not going to be able to use his magic, he could only use his sword, despite the injury to his leg Cassian still had a great amount of magic power, although he did not like the idea of ​​his brother accompanying him, he needed him if he wanted to save April so he agreed to let him accompany them.

_Okay, but be very careful.

_ Where are they? _ I'll tell you when we arrive, I don't want them to be put on notice, I don't know how many spies the pirates had infiltrated.

_I agree with you.

_Come on, let's not waste any more time.

Alessandro got on his horse, Cassian and the rest of the knights did the same and followed him to a cliff, Cassian saw nothing on that cliff, not a small cabin or a place to hide, he asked.

_ What are we doing here Lessan? _The pirates are the ones who kidnapped April, she is here, they have her locked in a boat in a cave on this cliff.

Cassian looked over the cliff, it was too high and steep to descend.

_How will we get down? _ Can you use your magic to bring us down? _Of course, but I think it would be better if you do it with your wind magic.

_I can't, I exhausted my magic looking for the pirates' hideout, so you'll have to do it.

_I will do it, although the descent will be a bit bumpy.

Cassian used his magic to make roots emerge from the ground that wrapped around the waist of each of the knights, Cassian walked to the edge of the cliff and said.

_Let's go.

They all began to descend the cliff with Cassian's help, when they reached the end they saw a large cave, Alessandro told them.

_The pirates are at the bottom of the cave, Cassian, could you make a boat with your magic? _Yes, no problem.

Cassian used a branch and made it grow and tangle together until it became a boat big enough to fit ten people.noveldrama

Upon entering the cave everything was dark and completely silent, it seemed like there was nothing in that place, however, at the end of the cave they saw light, they stuck as close to the wall as they could, they got off on a small ledge, they approached stealthily, the cave was illuminated by several oil lamps that were hanging throughout the cave, but there was no one, that place seemed to be completely devastated, there was only the boat at the bottom of the cave.

cave.

Alessandro went ahead and told the knights to be careful, all the pirates must be inside the ship.

They unsheathed their swords and boarded the ship.

There was no one on deck.

This seemed very strange to Alessandro.

It had to be a trap, but he couldn't abandon Abril, so he was going to have to take the risk and continue.

_Keep your eyes open, this could be a trap.

They all nodded and continued cautiously behind the king.

Alessandro went down to the cell where April was being held.

She was in a corner crying, shaking with fear, she seemed more affected than when he had seen her with his magic.

Alessandro's blood boiled with anger.

He would kill all of those pirates, cut off their hands and feet, and then hang their bodies for the crows to eat.

Alessandro approached the cell, Abril was curled up with her hands and feet tied, upon hearing the sound of footsteps she looked up, there was terror in her eyes, then she saw Alessandro, he opened the cell breaking the chain, approached her and asked her.

_ Are you okay? Are you hurt? What did those bastards do to you? April began to shed tears of relief, Alessandro untied the ropes from her hands and feet, April hugged him and said.

_You came.

_Of course we did, we had a promise remember, we would be together tonight.

Alessandro returned the hug and said.

_Don't cry, I'm here, I won't let anything bad happen to you, you're safe.

A hoarse voice was heard saying.

_I don't think that's the case, your majesty, this is just beginning.

Everyone turned around, a tall, scary man with a scarred face was standing by the door.

_ Are you the chief of the pirates? _I'm not your boss, I'm your captain, Narrei calls me, it's a great honor to have your majesty on my ship.

Alessandro ordered the knights to attack, but they could not touch him, there was an invisible wall that did not allow them to advance.

Alessandro knew what it was, a wall of wind.

_You are a wind magician.

_That's right, that's why I knew his majesty would come, I could feel his magic, the truth is I didn't think he would fall into my trap, but he was so worried about his wife that he didn't even notice my presence.

_I'm going to kill you, you fucking bastard, I'll make you regret having touched my wife.

_I don't think that will happen, his majesty has exhausted his magic and now you are my prisoners.
