The many books I'm reading is providing a good cover to subtly watch the others watching us. Jaeemara and Sally are on the other side of the table, reading so books too. They're not anything of note. But they're serving their purpose.
It's not the first ti I've been followed. There are tis in every powerful Players life when soone is stalking them.
Why we're being watched is obvious. Sally and I stick out. When we have our hoods up, it's hard to get a good look at us. But that didn't stop soone from seeing us. A report about outsiders must've gone through the governnt.
Hence the current situation for being watched. The deeper aning of why we're being watched is because I'm Angel Zern. Giving it enough thought, the word must've spread about being here. Reaching all the way to the capital.
That causes whoever's in charge to reach the conclusion that Angel Zern is here. I'm having a hard ti figuring out their intentions now that they know I'm here.
"None of them have moved from their spots. I doubt they're intending to let us leave this place. Not without a fight."
Jaeemara and Sally are watching the ones behind , and I'm watching the ones behind them. Sally's update tells we've got problems coming our way.
I don't want to put Jaeemara in any more danger than I have. If they're acting this way, it's likely her family and she herself would get into trouble. My mind imdiately goes to treason. In most instances, treason is grounds for death.
"I can say the sa. They're doing a good job at not looking. But they don't turn the pages of their books. They need more lessons in blending in."
When in a library, do as people with books do. Read. Others would disagree, but when you're on a scout mission like this. It's important. That's sothing these watchers don't know. Or at least have no experience in it yet.
Sally and Jaeemara are both growing impatient at the waiting. As am I. Ti may be a luxury for us, but that doesn't an I want to waste it. I want to see other places in the capital before Jaeemara decides to leave.
I place my book down, and I'm about to stand up. But before I can, a Dark Elf male approaches the table dressed in butler clothes. He fixes his glasses as his eyes lay upon .
"It's a pleasure to be one of Divinity in the flesh, Angel Zern. You're probably growing tired from all the watching eyes."
He lifts his hands and snaps his fingers. After he does, all the people watching us put down their books and leave us.
Seems this man wants to speak with us alone.
"You know my na, but I don't seem to know yours."
A small smile appears on the butler's features.
"I'm Wezarik. Personal Aid and confidant to Prince Feldern Ail Lukeaerd Zae Teziel. Heir to the throne and the one that's been watching you over the last several hours."
Jaeemara slowly stands up, and Sally follows suit. Since we've been made, and no one else is around, I take my hood off and look the man directly in the eyes.
Sally does the sa with her hood. Wezarik is patient as he waits for my response.
"Wezarik. I'm not familiar with Dark Elf nas. But it does sound foreign. Even here."
He doesn't acknowledge my observation. But regardless, it makes no difference to .
"I understand why you'd want to watch outsiders of my power. But I feel as though there is an underlined cause as to why. Fear is what I sense from the actions of your Prince and your spies. If you can call them that."
That slight against the Prince causes the man to frown. But he doesn't do anything other than that. I could use Inspect on him. But I know I'm stronger than he is. Just from looking at him, there is a vast difference in our powers.
"I'd appreciate it if you didn't insult the Prince or the royal family. They've done more good than you could imagine for the people of Arzix. However, we're getting off-topic. The reason I'm here is to ask you a series of questions."
Interesting. That's not sothing that happens to every day. It has to do with why they're so afraid. It's the only explanation.
"Yes, yes. I won't insult your Prince. I have manners when it's ti to use them. Answering questions, on the other hand. I don't see where you get the authority or power to presu you can ask anything."
For the faintest of monts, I see a slight crack in the man's regal nature. A subtle gulp of saliva building in his mouth. He's nervous.
It's because I make a better point than he could argue against. In truth, this is all just fun for . I don't really care about being asked questions by such a man. But the principle remains the sa.
"The royal family is worried that your presence here is for violence. I was sent to ensure that nothing will happen to the royal family or any of its mbers."
That's a perfectly reasonable concern. I've killed Kings in the past. Killed people of royal blood. I respect they're trying to ascertain a threat. Any great ruling family and its subordinates should try to protect their people and their family.
However, I'm not going to make this easy for them. This is fun, and I want it to continue.
"How about one of your royal family mbers cos to ask ? To send a ssenger is cowardly. Even for people wanting to protect their lives and power against soone like . I'm an Angel, after all."
I'm starting to wear down the man, and more cracks are starting to show. I don't wish to break him. Only make this more interesting than it already is.
Sally and I are here to have fun. Be free to do whatever we want. If ssing with so powerful people in a non-life-threatening way is how we do it. Then so be it.
"I don't have the power to say whether soone from the royal family will et you or not. But I'll take your request back to The Prince. Is there perhaps sothing else you wish for to tell him?"
He's recovered fast, and I can see why a Prince would want this man at their side. Confident, calm, and quick with his recoveries.
"Tell Prince Feldern Ail Lukeaerd Zae Teziel that I'd like to access the library above the 8th floor and higher. I'm sure there is more information in there that I'd like to see than what's available to the public."
He simply bows his head and swiftly leaves the area of the library we're in. Jaeemara walks up next to and smacks the back of my head in a joking way. But it doesn't make budge.
"You know, there were way better ways to handle that."
All I can do is smile. I can't help it. I'm having fun.
"Tell , Jaeemara. When was the last ti you saw royalty prostrate themselves in front of another person?"
Sally rolls her eyes from behind Jaeemara.
"I can't say that I have. But I don't think I'd enjoy it, either."
Trust . It's a fun thing to witness. Seeing people who've lived with limitless wealth and power act lower in front of soone like .
"Don't worry. I have no doubt you'll find it as enjoyable as I do."
She scoffs and starts walking toward the path that leads out of the library. Sally stands beside with a smile. She likes doing the sa things as .
We follow behind Jaeemara. I'm looking forward to wherever she's taking us next.
