The dinner ended with the conversation that Queen Amalone would inform the Queens about the Strzalka. The Queens will be the one who's responsible for informing the Kings.
Once they all inform the Kings, they will make an event where the Kings of each Kingdom will need to be present. This event will be a façade only to make the Kings be in one place for the eting. Although the details will still depend on the Kings.
After the dinner, we all sit in the receiving room to talk about other things. Prince Fraser is busy talking with the Queen and the Great Ruler. While Princess Paislee is behind him, guarding his highness diligently.
Csille smirks secretly and stares intently at Princess Paislee.
Now, let's see how you will deal with my sche. That's what you get for getting in my way.. You dare to take my fiancé's ti then bear with my hatred.
It's real Csille's thought. She's waiting for Princess Paislee to embarrass herself in front of her highness, Queen Amalone.
I suddenly feel soone holds my shoulder. Csille looks at her side and finds Rufus looking at her. Csille raised her eyebrow at him and shrugged his hand off her shoulder.
"Rufus, why are you here? You should be talking with the Queen and the Great Ruler too."
Rufus leans on the wall and stares at the Ruled Laird, Queen Amalone, and Prince Fraser. He then sighs. "Am I really need there, purplany?"
Poor, Rufus. It's because of his father, the Duke, that he was always set aside. If his father didn't withdraw from his responsibilities in the monarch, he wouldn't experience this. I feel bad for him. It's because I write him like this that's why he is experiencing all of this. He doesn't deserve this.
"How about you? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with Prince Fraser? You're his fiancée, after all."
Csille smirks at Rufus. "I'm just taking a break. All these problems are making dizzy. Also, I'm waiting for sothing." She chuckled while looking at Princess Paislee.
Let's see if you'll try to get in between my fiancée and again. You're just a lowly Knight. How dare he take Prince Fraser away from ?
If I could only slap the real Csille right now, I would have done that. She needs to wake up from all this nonsense. How can she get jealous over a guy? And what is she saying? Princess Paislee is taking Prince Fraser away from her? In the first place, she is the one taking Prince Fraser away from Princess Paislee.
When will she realize that Prince Fraser won't love her? With how she behave and treat other people? I doubt if Prince Fraser would like her.
"Waiting for sothing? What are you waiting? Did you prepare a surprise for them?"
"Surprise?" Csille giggles. "It's definitely a surprise. Just wait, Rufus, and you'll definitely enjoy this."
Rufus didn't say anything and just watched Prince Fraser talk to the Queen and the Great Ruler. While Csille continues to stare at Princess Paislee.
With how much ti Princess Paislee sit on the sofa, I'm sure her clothes will start to tear. I rember writing this scene. The mont Princess Paislee stands up, her pants will tear, and even the coat she is wearing will tear. It's a good thing Princess Paislee is wearing an inner clothing, or else everyone will know that she is a woman disguising as a man.
I start to get anxious. If only I could do sothing to stop that embarrassing thing from happening. However, I couldn't even move my body.
Princess Paislee, I'm sorry. I never thought what I had written would happen to soone. Please forgive . I never intended to embarrass you.
Csille smiled widely when she saw Prince Fraser and the rest standing up. She imdiately walks towards them and clings to Prince Fraser's arms. Prince Fraser imdiately frowns at her.
"Oh dear, look how you two look so great together." Queen Amalone stares at us with a wide smile.
I can feel my face starting to heat up, and Csille starts to act like she is shy. Although inside, she is gloating.
Of course, we will look great together. I am the most beautiful lady among all the Kingdoms. Do you think soone will look this great with Prince Fraser? No one. It's only .
Ruler Laird stands up and smile at us. "Queen Amalone, you are right. They look great together. I'm sure after a few years. These two will definitely be a perfect couple."
Csille shyly put a strand of hair at the back of her ear. "Your highness, Queen Amalone. Godfather. Can you stop teasing us? You're making us embarrass."
Csille looks at Princess Paislee and raises her eyebrow at her inconspicuously. It's as if she is challenging her. Princess Paislee just stared at Csille with a confused look. Even I will be confused if soone looks at like that.
Prince Fraser breaks from my hold. "It's already late. Wouldn't it better for everyone to take a rest." He then walks towards Queen Amalone. "Mother, let bring you to your room. I'm sure you're exhausted for today." He then looks at . "Csille, bring Godfather to his room too. I know he is also tired."
Csille forces herself to smile and stare at Princess Paislee, who is now walking behind Prince Fraser and Queen Amalone. She takes a deep breath and brings Ruler Laird to his room.
"Are you okay, Csille? You look irritated." Ruler Laird suddenly asks.
Csille imdiately smiles at Ruler Laird. "No, please don't misunderstand , Godfather. I'm just tired. I'm not irritated."
Ruler Laird stops in front of the door of his room and stares at Csille. He then smiles gently at her. "If you need anything. I'm just here to help you, okay."
Csille smiled at him. "Thank you, Godfather. I appreciate that." She then stares at the closed door. "I shall take my leave now. So you can rest. Good night Godfather."
"Good night Csille."
Csille imdiately rushes to her room after. She slumps on the bed and throws the pillow. "Farren Brichagnac. Do you think you can avoid my sches just like that? I will make sure that you'll learn your lesson. You should know your place."
________________________________
I sigh and stare outside the window. It's been days after the Queen and the Great Ruler has visited our residence. And throughout the days that have passed, everyone was busy training and preparing for the banquet.
"Purplany, do you think the Queen—"
I imdiately cover Rufus' mouth. Although we have rented a private room in the pastry shop, I don't think it's proper to talk about the updates from the Queen.
"Can you not say that. What if so people heard you? Have you forgotten that there are spies everywhere? So, let's be careful. We don't want to alert the enemy, or else it will be the end for all of us."
Two days after the visit, the Queen sent a letter that she already inford all the Queen of the Kingdoms. We just need to wait for the Grand Exemplary Competition to end so the Queens can inform their Kings.
"I just want to know what will happen next. We never heard from her highness aside from the letter she sent." Rufus takes a sip of his tea. "Do you think everything will be fine, Csille?"
I sigh and look outside the window. I honestly don't know how to answer that question. I am the writer of this novel, but I don't understand why things are progressing like this.
War? Will they really be a war? I'm not even sure about that. All I know is that I need to stop it no matter what happens. I cannot let this war happen.
"I don't know, Rufus. All I know is that we need to stop this as much as we can. The Vrawyth Kingdom cannot go to war right now."
I heard Rufus sigh. "You're right. We cannot afford to fight against this unknown enemy. Not until we know who they are and what they want. We cannot let war broke out."
I look at Rufus and nod my head. Strzalka? Who are the people behind this, and why do they exist? I didn't write a group like this. So, why?
A knock was heard outside the door. I look at Rufus and frown. We're in a private room, and we didn't expect soone to co. "Did you invite soone? Senior Leander?"
Rufus shakes his head. "I didn't. Although I tried to invite him, but he refused because he was busy reviewing for the upcoming Competition. Maybe it was you who invited soone?"
I shake my head. That's impossible. I was busy the past few days and didn't get the chance to invite soone. Also, it's as if I have many friends here.
"Maybe it's the waiter? Did you order sothing?" I look at our table full of food. Did he order a bunch of food again? This foodie.
"No, I didn't. I like to eat, but I'm not that gluttonous."
If it's not soone we know and not the waiter, who is knocking on the door then?
"Your highness, Prince Rufus? Lady Csille? Excuse for interrupting your al, but soone wants to see you." A voice outside speaks suddenly.
I look at Rufus. "I thought you didn't invite soone. Who's the person outside?"
He shakes his head. "I didn't really invite soone. Rember, I don't have many friends here."
If it's not for him, then who is that person looking for? ? Who would look for ? My friends are limited to Prince Fraser, Princess Paislee, and Rufus. So, who would look for in the Saiven Kingdom?
I gestured to Rufus to take the door and see who is the person who want to see us. Rufus sigh and walks towards the door. "I'm sorry, Prince Rufus, but Princess Roese just want to say hi to Lady Csille and asked if she could just greet you. I hope I didn't interrupt your al."
My eyes imdiately widened when I heard the na of Princess Roese. Princess Roese? She's the one looking for ?
I stand up and walk towards Rufus. I see Princess Roese looking at Rufus. Her face is all flushed. She must really likes him.
"I'm sorry, your highness. I didn't expect you were with Lady Csille. I apologize for interrupting your al. I'll be taking my leave first."
Princess Roese is about to walk about, but I imdiately catch her arms. "Princess Roese, since you are here, why don't you stay for a while. Co inside. We ordered a lot of food, and adding one mouth will help us finished it."
Princess Roese looks at Rufus. She is about to refuse, but I just dragged her inside. Although I know I cannot matchmake her to Rufus, it doesn't an that I cannot be her friend.
"Is it okay for to join you? What if Prince Rufus doesn't want—"
"You shouldn't worry. I don't mind. Feel free to sit and eat with us." Rufus said while sitting on his chair.
I tug Princess Roese's hand and let her sit beside . "You heard Rufus, co on, join us."
Princess Roese sits beside shyly while I keep stealing glances at Rufus from ti to ti.
I sigh. This. Should I do sothing to make Princess Roese stops liking Rufus? Rufus won't ever like her, no matter what. Should I save her from heartbreak?
"Princess Roese, do you have sothing to say to Lady Csille? You won't knock on our door for nothing, right?"
Princess Roese stares at Rufus for a few seconds before she covers her face.
I look at Rufus and shake my head. She's hopeless. She's definitely into Rufus, but this like will just lead her to heartbreak. I should have told her that Rufus likes soone else.
"I just want to ask her if she will go to the banquet. My brother and I will go there too. So, I was hoping to see her in the banquet."
"Of course, she will attend. She's one of the representatives of the Vrawyth Kingdom, and she's the fiancée of the Crown Prince. Do you even need to ask?"
I inconspicuously kick Rufus' legs. He imdiately glared at . This guy! Why does he sound like he hates Princess Roese?
I feel Princess Roese stiffen. I glared at Rufus, signaling him to apologize to Princess Roese. I heard him sigh.
"I'm sorry, I didn't an to be rude. I just had a rough day. Forgive , Princess Roese."
Princess Paislee just smile sweetly at Rufus and continue to eat her al. I look at Rufus and shake my head. Even if he doesn't like Princess Roese, I don't think it's enough reason for him to be rude to her.
The al continues with Princess Roese talk about what is happening around the Saiven Kingdom. While Rufus refutes her from ti to ti.
I sigh. These two. Why do they always banter like two children? And I don't understand why does Rufus acts like that? Princess Roese seems like a good person.
