Year 4014 Mist Kingdom - North Quarters - (Library)

A certain silver hair man watched from the window of the room he entered after the two left . The two were still close, so he could still see them . Adrien hears a shuffling sound of footsteps behind him, "Your here Pupillam . " A young child with auburn colored hair tied in a bun emerges from the doorway — a stack of books in her hands .

"I apologize for being late," Pupillam trailed off and scanned the room, as she placed the books down on the table, "Where is the Princess?"

"Come over," Adrien beckons her over to the window . Puzzled, Pupillam walked over . A frown like the one he had earlier appeared on the aide"s face when she saw the sight .

"I realize you want the Princess to have friends, and yes I wish the same . Even if we are there for her, in the end, we cannot be her companion," Pupillam said with a nod .

Adrien raised his eyebrow at the girl"s words; this dilemma would not exist if Pupillam became the Princess friend . However, this child"s family owes a lot to Queen Orthez . They trained Pupillam to respect the Royal Family and taught about the gap in her status . Pupillam treats the Princess well and gets along with her, but General Adrien understood that it"s a far cry from actual friends.h.i.+p .

Pupillam continued, "But, is that one wise?" By that one, the girl referred to the Sound Kingdom"s Amba.s.sador, "I don"t trust that man . Not only is he shady by smiling all the time . But for the last week, his movements are unusual . "

"Did you find something?"

"I"m still unsure . Whenever I trailed him, that man didn"t seem to be doing anything amiss . But then I realized it was just a body double . I was following the real him at the start, and yet . . " Pupillam struggled to say the next part; the girl appeared frustrated .

"Say no more, I understand," Adrien said . It"s exactly like the reports say . The Sound Kingdom appears to have abilities and magic they"ve never heard of before . If it"s like that then, his gaze fell back on the window - the pair was walking off in another direction . The one he watched, in particular, was the Princess . Then perhaps it"s best that the Princes is getting so close with them .

Mist Kingdom Main Castle (Queen Audience Chambers)

General Adrien of House Bennet had a reputation for being attentive during meetings . So when he couldn"t answer a question from the Queen, people whispered . The Queen however simply chuckled, "It seems like you"ve shown me a rare side of yourself today General . "

"I apologize . "

"No matter, we finished discussing the important matters for today," Orthez said . Were they finished? General Adrien looked over at his companions and understood from their expressions, that there was more to discuss . But n.o.body dared to voice a complaint . Who would have the nerve to do so?

Queen Orthez was at the top of the elite; there was n.o.body who could match her . She even outdoes the previous Queen and King, her very own parents what"s more her ethereal like appearance and graceful mannerism . Unlike Princess Lyn who inherited her hair color from her father . Queen Orthez has long ginger wavy hair and pure blue eyes like the ocean .


That"s why even now many people questioned why she married somebody average like King Daichi . The man may have good looks . But he"s average at most at everything else . When the Queen dismissed everybody, Adrien was on the verge of leaving, but she called out to him . Adrien understood immediately and remained in his spot . After a while, the others went away, leaving him with the Queen .

"The girl, how is she?" Orthez asked, by that girl Adrien knew instantly who she meant — not even referring to her by name, huh? Adrien shook his head, despite what it seemed . He knew how much the Queen cared for her daughter . Adrien reports the events of the past week, and Orthez didn"t seem surprised, "The Sound Kingdom intends for the two to get married . His main purpose is getting close to my daughter so he can seduce her . "

Adrien"s eyes widened processing this piece of information, "If you know this, why aren"t you stopping…"

"Because I believe this cat-and-mouse game could potentially be very interesting . " Queen Orthez stood up from her throne and walked towards the window, "That girl resembles me more than my other children, that"s why I know that she will continue falling for his trap . " His gaze softened at the Queen"s words, despite the secondary meaning - the Queen admitted Lyn is her child . Adrien supposes this is enough for now .

"And you don"t think that"s an issue?" Isn"t the Queen practically admitting that the Sound Kingdom people are up to no good?

"By the end of the month, Allen shall come here . "

Orthez smiled, "What do you think will happen?"

Adrien sighed when he saw the Queen"s expression, "If I may so…" The Queen nodded, and Adrien continued, "Nothing has changed since you were a child, you still like to play your games . "

Orthez laughed, "Perhaps that is the case . . . but," she trailed off, "I truly wish for that girl to know more . Like you informed me her training is going well, and she seems to be up to date with the Kingdoms present affairs . That"s good; rather this is perfect timing . Soon this land will descend into chaos; when that happens, I want to introduce the girl to the rest of the world . I"ll no longer keep her locked and hidden away . But, all she has now is book knowledge, unless she puts those skills to good use practically . . "

Adrien nodded in understanding, so the Queen wishes to use the Sound Kingdom Amba.s.sador, "Do you think the Princess will realize he is tricking her? " Adrien asked .

"I wonder," Orthez smiled, "It seems like something more can come out of this . "

The General did not reply right away; instead, he stared at her completely speechless, "Poor Prince Allen," he murmured quietly so she wouldn"t overhear . The poor child will come here when the Queen"s plan is already underway . Let"s hope he"s able to keep up . Princess Lyn and the Sound King Amba.s.sador as a couple, Adrien shook his head; he was having a hard time picturing this . Or rather, "Queen, you won"t reconsider?"

"General . It"s up to my daughter to decide . "

Adrien didn"t want to sound pushy, but he disliked that man . Maybe it"s because he knew from the beginning that the guy is the enemy . Either way, "I"ll continue watching over her, " Adrien said . As long as he is watching over her, he doubts anything serious will happen between the two . Even if the Queen approves of the two getting close, he won"t allow it!Year 4014 Mist Kingdom - North Quarters - (Library) A certain silver hair man watched from the window of the room he entered after the two left .
