Agalea carried Alea towards Jasmine while hugging her tight in her embrace, as if afraid Alea would run away and do sothing weird again.
Once Agalea was there, she put down Alea and holding her face in both her hands, asked, "My dear, what were you trying to do?"
Alea, having a smile on her face, replied, "There were cute fishes in the lake. I wanted to play with them."
Agalea blinked twice and so did Jasmine from the side.
"Okay, nevermind. Let's go ho. We'll talk there." Agalea said and took Alea away after dressing her up.
Once back in the castle, Agalea ensured Alea was firstly well fed and in the anti, talked with Jasmine.
While talking to Jasmine, she realized that the tis Alea got herself killed was when she was out adventuring.
Alea walked at the edge of an explosive volcano and feeling the warmth of it, she went towards the core to see how hot it was.
She was a Half King and didn't feel too hot until she was at the very core of it, eventually falling into and resurrecting back in the castle.
The second ti Alea was resurrected was when she accidentally ate a poisonous fruit because it looked really cute and slled nice to her.
Third ti was when Alea realized she was too far from ho and couldn't find her way back. She was lost and the best solution she ca up with to get back to the castle was through the resurrection phylactery.
Alea had saved so of those poisonous fruit that killed her for the second ti and ate it again without any hesitation to get back to the castle.
Listening to all of this made Agalea knit her brows and frown. She was angry because her daughter was killed but then… she was really confused about where she should channel her anger.
It wasn't due to anyone's mistake that Alea was killed but due to her own silly ones.
Agalea, sitting in her office, asked Jasmine to bring all of the files regarding Alea.
She went through it and saw that Alea had never been in trouble with any person. It was just nature or herself doing weird things.
Agalea rubbed her temples as she felt a headache due to it.
"Jasmine, how did she even manage to sneak past the guards in the first place? Aren't the guards Kings and Emperors?"
Jasmine shook her head and said, "I do not know, Your Majesty. It remains a mystery. I have checked through magic and surveillance but there was no trace of Her Highness appearing in any of them."
Agalea sighed. "Should I comnd my daughter for her ability to go past the whole royal security or should I be angry because she doesn't care for herself?"
"I an… Your Majesty, Princess knows that there's no risk involved even if she's killed. So I am assuming she adventures freely." Jasmine put out her thoughts.
"Hmm, but…" Agalea found sothing weird in the docunts. She pointed towards a few things and continued, "do you see, there's not a single ti she was killed due to a person or was in trouble with any of the people of the world."
Jasmine nodded and replied, "That's right. What's also important to know is that Her Highness has never gone out of the Elven Continent in her whole life, except for the ti when she was in the academy."
"Oh my…" Agalea was shocked to know this fact. She put on a pondering expression and while having her brows knitted, thought of the ti she spent with Alea and checked if this fact was true or not.
A minute later, Agalea realized that Jasmine was right. Alea had indeed never gone out.
Agalea put on a sad expression as this fact hit her and looked at Jasmine with a sad smile.
"It seems I am a bad mother, ain't I? I don't even look after my child properly?"
Jasmine shook her head. "It's not Her Majesty's fault. You need to manage the kingdom, the people, and while doing that, you also ensure to look after Her Highness. If I am not wrong, out of the twelve months of the year, Her Majesty spends at least five to six months with Her Highness."
Agalea's sad expression was getting slightly better as she heard this. She then asked, "If spending ti isn't the problem, then what would be?"
Jasmine put on a pondering expression. A few seconds later, she answered, "Does Her Majesty rember the ti when Her Highness was in the academy?"
"Of course. How can I forget any of the ti I spent with my little Alea." Agalea nodded and said with a smile.
"Her Majesty must've noticed that Princess was sad to part ways after getting into the academy. That was the only ti Princess seriously worked to cultivate and in just three years of ti, she was out of there." Jasmine tried to hint at a few things.
Agalea nodded. "She has been slacking ever since. She could very well be a King Rank by now, but if she keeps going at the pace she is going, she'll probably be no different than the average people of the world and beco a King at the age of 2,000 years old."
"That's right, Your Majesty. So what I think is, you should not spend any ti with Princess and let her adventure out of the Elven Continent." Jasmine said with a straight face.
"..."
Agalea was speechless. What sort of stupid advice was this? Parting Alea from Agalea would only make her kill herself again so she would resurrect back into the castle.
This advice of Jasmine was as good as Alea sneaking past the guards and adventuring.
Agalea couldn't help but look at her and say, "Jasmine, are you perhaps in heat and need a good spanking?"
"..." This ti Jasmine was speechless as she was taken aback by the sudden weird question. But she cleared her throat, realizing her advice may have co as too stupid, and replied,
"No, Your Majesty. But feel free to do so if you want to."
She then made her butt face Agalea and waited to get punished.
"Tsk." Agalea slapped Jasmine's butt back into her previous position and said, "What has gotten into you? Have you been hanging out with sister Lilith's maid?"
"Uhh… no?" Jasmine answered.
Agalea and Jasmine knew about Luna as once when Agalea was hanging out with the Vampire Queen a few thousand years ago, Lilith, to tease her personal maid, handed out information regarding Luna to the ladies.
Agalea, Lucifer, and Mayzin from that ti knew how Luna was and although it would've been really embarrassing, the maso Luna only ended up enjoying herself instead of getting embarrassed.
Agalea, when she was back, decided to tease her aide and she handed out information regarding Luna to her. Thus, both of them knew about her.
Jasmine cleared her throat and, trying to change the topic, said, "Speaking of her, I have a letter from her. See this, Your Majesty."
Jasmine handed out a scroll to Agalea.
"Hmm?" Agalea's interest piqued as she saw a fine looking scroll.
Opening it, she was surprised to see that it was an official letter from the Vampire Court.
Agalea read it fully and checking the signature at the end, it definitely belonged to her big sister Lilith.
"Oh, interesting. It seems we will need to cancel all our plans and schedule them for a later date." Agalea said to Jasmine.
"Why is that, Your Majesty?"
Agalea got up, as if in a hurry, "We have been invited to the Royal Banquet by the Vampire Royal Clan. It's an official letter. We need to leave. Go get the entourage ready, for the first ti in history the Elves will be making an official visit to the Vampire Continent."
"What!?" Jasmine was genuinely shocked now. Things had apparently happened too fast and it wasn't easy to digest such information.
"The Royal Banquet will happen tonight. We need to leave quickly. Go do the arrangents quickly, Jasmine. We have no ti. I'll go get Alea ready for the banquet. Call when everything's done, I am in my chambers with her."
"R-right away." Jasmine, although shocked, hurried knowing the gravity of the situation and left Agalea's office.
Agalea left as well and went to the dining room to fetch her daughter and ready her for the banquet.
