Roooooaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr!
The roars of magical beasts echoed through the Dwarven Kingdom's skies. But after the roar was heard suddenly an explosion followed.
Boooooooommmmmm!
The residents of the Dwarven Kingdom didn't seem to care about the magical beast attacks like they were used to it.
Inside the building used for the Piqntia Grand Academy banquet, the students were slightly panicked by the roar. They could infer from the sound that they were high-level magical beasts.
"You guys calm down! We've cleaned up the monsters with our newest artifact. It's a high-explosive magic cannon. 3 shots from that cannon are enough to kill high-level magical beasts." King Auva smiled broadly and looked proud to say it.
"Shouldn't we have it too in the human country? Or maybe in the academy."
"As expected of the kingdom of blacksmiths!"
The students started whispering after hearing what King Auva said. They were amazed by the technological advancents that the Dwarf Kingdom had. The kingdoms in the human region were truly lagging far behind.
"Father!" Prince Torin's voice was heard in the banquet hall. He walked in from outside in a hurry. Behind him were Prince Fritz and Prince Albert who had suddenly disappeared.
"Father, are the Monsters attacking again!?" Prince Torin asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, it's all done." King Auva smiled and patted his son's shoulder.
"I'll excuse myself first King Auva, King Gustave, Principal." Kalya took the opportunity to leave the table while they were busy discussing the monster's attack. Without waiting for an answer from King Auva, she quickly left the place.
"Wait..." King Auva intended to stop her. He still wanted to know what happened in the Elven Kingdom. But he stopped his words because of soone's voice.
"Brother! Where have you been!?" Princess Freya ca to Prince Fritz.
"I went to see a blacksmith who was recomnded by Prince Torin in this building. Incidentally, Prince Albert also wanted to join, so the three of us went there." Prince Fritz explains what happened to his sister.
"Please tell next ti before you go." Princess Freya quickly left them after saying that. Prince Fritz smiled bitterly and shook his head at his little sister's behavior.
"Forgive my sister's behavior." Prince Fritz said apologetically to Prince Albert and Prince Torin.
"It's okay. I understand she must be worried. Especially since you're in another kingdom." Prince Torin just smiled and understood the situation. Prince Albert also nodded in agreent with him.
After Kalya left, King Auva was slightly stunned. He sat back in his chair and looked at rlick and King Gustave.
"rlick, I'm sure you know Princess Cattleya. Does when she call you principal an she is..." King Auva asked rlick about Kalya.
"You're right. She is a teacher at our academy." rlick smiled bitterly and answered honestly.
"What!? Didn't you know that she was a Princess and you made her a teacher!?" Even though he had expected it, but King Auva was still shocked when he heard it directly from rlick.
"rlick, I don't know this. Do the other kings know? She's a princess from another kingdom, let alone from an Elven kingdom that's isolated from the outside." King Gustave was just as shocked as King Auva but for another reason. He didn't know what kind of trouble Kalya had in the Elven kingdom, but making a Princess beco a teacher at the academy might beco a problem in the future. Although he knew it was an unnecessary worry for now.
"You guys calm down. For so reason, I can't tell anyone that. The other kings don't know about this." rlick said what he thought needed to be said.
"Do you know the real problem in the Elven Kingdom that made her leave the kingdom and beco a teacher?" King Auva is still curious about it. He tried to extract information from rlick.
"Auva, I'm sure you've heard it directly from her. I who have nothing to do with this can't say anything." rlick shook his head at King Auva who was stubbornly searching for information about it. He didn't know what his real goal was.
"Haa... Well if that's the case. Since the Elven Kingdom is close to the Dwarf Kingdom, so I think whatever problem has happened there, sooner or later it will have an impact on our kingdom." king Auva sighed heavily he intended to investigate this.
"Thank you for your understanding." rlick didn't say anything after saying that. The atmosphere at the table beca heavy at the words of King Auva.
After Kalya left King Auva and others at the table, she walked towards the balcony. As she walked, she smiled and laughed, completely different from the impression she usually gave off at the academy. Fortunately, this was not seen by other students. She's like that because she's chatting with Ziel through the brooch she's wearing. She did it because she wanted to test the effectiveness of the artifact. Of course, all of that was a lie. The real reason was that she wanted to hear his voice.
She enjoyed her conversation with Ziel so much that she didn't notice that soone had been following her since she left King Auva's table.
"Can I have a mont of your ti, Miss Kalya?" Princess Aishia's voice was heard calling her from behind. Kalya raised her eyebrows after hearing that voice. She turned around and saw the silver-haired Princess standing with a serious face.
Princess Aishia took the opportunity when Princess Freya went to Prince Fritz. She felt like Princess Freya wanted to stop her from talking to Kalya even though it was just her guess. That's why she used that ti to escape Princess Freya's attention.
"Okay, co with to the balcony." Kalya walked there first and was followed by Princess Aishia.
When they reached the balcony, neither of them started to speak. Since it would be a waste of ti to continue like that, then kalya broke their silence first.
"So, what do you need from ?" Kalya can guess what Princess Aishia wants from her. But she wanted to confirm from her directly.
"Miss Kalya, do you know where Ziel is right now?" Princess Aishia asks Kalya seriously. Even so, Kalya can see her eyes are teary like she is holding back her tears. She had wanted to ask Kalya this since the ti they ca back from the survival test. But Princess Freya always gets in the way and they suddenly get a month's vacation that requires her to return to her kingdom for a while.
"Ziel? Who is he? I have no idea what you're suddenly asking." Kalya pretends not to know him. Ziel had told her honestly about his relationship with Princess Aishia. Therefore she had no reason to reveal his whereabouts. After hearing this she also knew that Princess Freya was also hiding Ziel's whereabouts from her. After all, she was Princess Aishia's childhood friend.
(The girl is very sly)
Silphy's voice ca from inside Kalya's mind. Even though Princess Aishia is her childhood friend, but she can do that behind Princess Aishia's back. Kalya was silent and didn't respond to Silphy. Currently, she is waiting for a reaction from Princess Aishia.
"Please, can you stop pretending? I'll do anything as long as you tell !" Princess Aishia finally couldn't hold back her tears. A tear fell down her cheek.
"Haa...who exactly do you an?" Kalya sighed heavily as if she didn't understand what Princess Aishia ant.
"You! Well if you don't rember, I'll help remind you! He's the one who wore the mask and helped us in the Alba Mountain range. Have you rembered him!?" Princess Aishia who wasn't holding back her emotions said in a louder voice. Luckily no one was there.
"Ah, so the person who wore the mask that ti and helped was nad Ziel. I forgot to thank him when he helped that ti." Kalya still insists on not knowing him till the end.
"You...!" Princess Aishia could no longer suppress her anger and was about to scream. But she was stopped by Princess Freya who was looking for her since she suddenly disappeared.
"Aishia, stop it! If you shout like that the other students will hear it." Princess Freya reminded her. She was panting after running looking for Princess Aishia into the spacious banquet hall. When she asked where Princess Aishia went to the Princesses there. Princess Rinne says she went with Kalya and it made her panic. Therefore she imdiately rushed to look for her.
"Freya, what are you doing here? Are you going to stop from asking her again?" Princess Aishia looked at her coldly. Currently, Princess Aishia's emotions are overflowing because she has been holding back for a long ti.
"You...what have you said Aishia?" Princess Freya trembled slightly after hearing her childhood friend's words. She said coldly to her. Princess Aishia is not like her usual self.
"Are you sure you're not hiding anything from , Freya?" Princess Aishia continues to press her.
"I'm not hiding anything from you. Please if you want to ask her. But can you lower your voice? You know we're currently in another kingdom. Please protect the good na of the academy and the human kingdom." Princess Freya reminded her harshly. She was also a little carried away by Princess Aishia's attitude towards her.
Princess Aishia fell silent after hearing her words. She took a deep breath to calm her heart then wiped the tears from her cheeks.
"I'm sorry, Freya. I got carried away by my emotions. I'm sorry too, Miss Kalya. I'll find out myself if you don't want to tell . Excuse ." Princess Aishia bowed slightly to Kalya and quickly left the place.
"Haa...how troubleso." Princess Freya sighed and shook her head.
"You are quite an to your childhood friend." Kalya quipped Princess Freya.
"I don't care if I have to beco a villain to get what is ant for ." Princess Freya smiled evilly. Kalya frowned when she saw her smile.
"Are you sure you can do everything or even sacrifice your status as a Princess?" Kalya narrowed her eyes staring at Princess Freya.
"Don't you already know the answer? But if you want to hear it from my mouth then... I can sacrifice anything. So wait, I'll take him from you." She smiled again, but not the scary smile he had before. She smiled like a blooming flower. A smile followed by a declaration of war on Kalya.
"Hehe... Grab it if you can. But you also know that I'm just like you? I'll do anything to defend him." Kalya accepted her declaration of war and smiled sweetly that was not inferior to Princess Freya before.
"Ahaha...I'm glad to hear your answer. Then we'll see who gets to him in the end." princess Freya went from the balcony and left Kalya alone in that place. But it didn't take long because soone was suddenly there.
"Did you hear everything?" Kalya turns to look at Ziel. She was very familiar with his presence. Because Ziel never hid his presence when they were together.
"Shouldn't I hear it?" Ziel asked flatly.
"No, you can hear it or should I say, I'm glad you heard it. What do you think about the feelings of those two beauties?" Kalya tries to tease him. But his poker face remained unchanged in the slightest.
"You already know my answer right? I can't answer their feelings. Or maybe you want to respond?" Ziel asked her back.
"No! I don't want you to respond to any girl! I just want you to be mine alone!" Kalya accidentally shouts at him. Her face looked panicked after hearing his question. Ziel just silently watched her. But Kalya could tell that his face softened.
"I'm sorry. I accidentally shouted." She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him.
"I think my heartbeat when I'm with you is not without reason. Go back inside because it's getting cold outside." Ziel approached her and caressed her head. Kalya's body trembled slightly then beca very relaxed.
"Okay, you should go back inside too. See you later." She lightly kissed his lips and quickly returned to the banquet hall.
After Kalya left, Ziel looked into the darkness of the night in the Dwarven Kingdom.. Sowhere in the kingdom, a pair of red eyes suddenly opened and stared at the tower-shaped Royal castle.
