Questioning

The Emperor stood tall and walked down the throne towards his son. He lifted his son using his Aether and looked at his crying face.

"Is it true?" he asked with a serious face. The prince, still with his snot-ridden face and teary eyes, only kept crying.

"Felix, Answer my question," the Emperor shouted, but the prince only kept on crying.

"Let me help a bit," Ning said and walked towards the Emperor. The guards immediately put their spears in front of Ning to block him, but with a casual push, he pushed them away.

The Emperor himself got cautious as he was still not sure what Ning's plans were.

Ning reached the prince and placed his hands on the prince. 

"What are you doing?" the Emperor got ready to attack in case Ning did something to his son, but Ning stepped back from him before the Emperor reacted.

The Emperor looked back on his son and wondered what was happening.
