Two hours later Alicia finally opened her eyes once again to see a pair of warm eyes looking down at her. Alicia, who was almost frozen in place, looked up at the handso face looking back at her. She instantly turned into a tomato as she shot up from her current position. "What? Why?"
Blake looked at the confused red faced girl in front of him and found it sowhat amusing. "After you exited the Illusion World you passed out from exhaustion. I did not want to wake you nor did I want you to sleep uncomfortably so I laid your head on my lap to allow you to have a good rest."
Alicia looked blankly at Blake and lowered her head a bit. She was feeling very embarrassed at this ti. "Oh. Tha-Thank you for your concern Blake..."
"Good she's awake! Third Sister!" Princess Catherine ca running over and wrapped her arms around Alicia. Tears welled up in her eyes as she sobbingly said: "Do not worry! Big sister will protect you from that demon father of ours!"
"And who exactly are you calling a demon?" King Augustus asked. His expression and voice showed a hint of anger.
Of course Princess Catherine paid no mind to King Augustus's expression and bluntly stated. "You of course! Making my little sister go through such things!"
"Pfft" Alicia let out a laugh before saying: "Big Sister Catherine it is fine. This is the kind of training I need most at this ti. Although it is very ntally exhausting, it is also beneficial to my future as well. So do not be mad at Royal Father for this." Alicia tried to pacify her new elder sister.
"Alicia!" King Augustus was actually moved to tears by how his daughter was protecting him!
"Humph! This ti I will let you off for little sister's sake." Princess Catherine was still not satisfied but she knew deep down that this was all beneficial to Alicia's growth as a knight and that even she herself would eventually have to go through such a baptism at so point. "Oh right Alicia, you have inspired to follow in your footsteps. I realized just how much of a pampered life I was leading up until now. After seeing you undertake such harsh trials I myself have decided to beco a knight as well. My training will start the week after the test is over."
Alicia looked her Princess Catherine in the eyes to see she was full of motivation and determination and let out a sigh. She then looked at King Augustus and said: "Before she starts, write up the training regi that she will have to do every day and give it to . I will alter it to match her ability... "
King Augustus looked at Alicia a bit confused before asking: "Hmm? Why?"
"Because you have no sense of restraint when you're training soone! Rember when you sent all those prisoners at for a test? Or when you made wear all those weights? Big sister Catherine is not like so she needs an easier training routine that won't kill her on the first day!" Alicia rolled her eyes at King Augustus's expression that said "I am not that bad!". She wondered what he actually thought about when he was training people!
King Augustus looked at the serious face in front of him and thought for a mont before lowering his head. Because she was right, he did not understand restraint when training others. But he felt that pushing those he trained to their limits was a good thing. It would help them surpass their limits. Although he felt this way, he still nodded his head and said: "I will go over her training with you once I write it up."
Since the second test always took longer and Alicia had actually finished before everyone else once again, Alicia decided to take Princess Catherine to et Frey. "Mother!" A tiny voice sounded out as soon as Alicia entered her space with Princess Catherine. Alicia was greeted with a warm little hug and kiss on the cheek by Frey.
Princess Catherine took one look at Frey and shouted: "She is so cute! Wait What does she an by mother?"
"Big Sister Catherine. This is my daughter Frey. She was entrusted to by a fairy elder. Frey this is your Aunt Catherine, introduce yourself. " Alicia introduced the two.
Frey looked at Alicia and then at Princess Catherine. Seeing Alicia nod, Frey flew up in front of Princess Catherine, gave a small curtsy, blushed a little, and shyly said: "It is nice to et you Aunt Catherine. My na is Frey, please take care of from now on." After introducing herself she flew and hid in Alicia's hair.
Seeing Frey's reaction made Alicia smile as she said: "She will warm up to you soon enough I am sure."
As Alicia finished speaking a small voice ca from the folds of her hair: "Mother, where's father?"
This question alone made Alicia blush from ear to ear. Princess Catherine looked at Alicia in shock, her mouth opened wide as she pointed at her. "You You! YOU! Have you really already!?"
"NO! Of course, I haven't! I already told you Frey was entrusted to . But for so reason she sees Blake as her father..." Alicia quickly tried to explain. She was still way too young and on top of that she still had not had her ti of the month! In her previous life it was common to not even do "that" until your late twenties! And even then there were many who never even had a relationship due to always working. She really wondered if her elder sister's brain was working properly to jump to such conclusions.
After hearing Alicia's explanation Princess Catherine let out a big sigh of relief. She had thought her little sister had already walked up the stairs to adulthood! But now that she thought about it properly there was no possible way for that to happen. But one thing did co to mind when she saw Blake looking at Alicia who was using his lap as a pillow. Those eyes were that of soone who cared deeply for a person. Princess Catherine might be young but such a blatant expression could not be missed. "So, what is your relationship with Sir Blake?"
Alicia almost choked on air when she heard this question. Mainly because she did not know herself and it was sowhat of an embarrassing issue for her! " Blake is Blake is..."
"You called?"
