"Sister? You where? don't leave me alone.." Said the little lady in the middle of the palace garden while carrying a kitchen knife. He walked slowly while looking around in the dark night.
"Krek-" A 10-year-old boy accidentally steps on a tree root that makes a sound, attracting the girl's attention. "Ah.. shit." he said while pouring cold sweat.
"Are you there?" The girl looked towards the tree not far from her sight. Suddenly he ran while pointing his knife. She smiled when she found out her brother was there.
"Yahoo!!"
The man ran away from behind the tree as fast as he could to avoid the crazy girl. But not unexpectedly if the girl is also able to run very fast.
The young man immediately turned towards the royal palace. He jumped through the window and rolled continuously running forward.
The young man was quite agile, in contrast to the little girl who had to climb through the window. This gave the young man time to hide again. "Sister.don't run away.keep me playing.."
The young man hid in the room and closed the door. Unfortunately the door could not be locked because the young man did not have the key to the room.
"Shelf!!" One by one the doors in the palace were opened by the little girl. He carefully investigated every corner of the room with a small smile.
"Sister.. You where? when do you want to keep running? You don't want to play with me?" Said the little girl in the quiet royal hallway.
The young man who heard that felt terrified. He felt all over his hair standing up and shaking.
"No. no. no." the sound of footsteps began to be heard approaching towards the room entered by the young man.
"Sister..where are you?" The girl constantly called out to her brother with her sinister smile.
The young man tried to take a deep breath to calm his mind so as not to make a sound that could be heard by him.
"Hmm? what'sthis?" The little girl looked at the floor right in front of the door if there was a little blue. She realized that this belonged to her brother and her brother must now be in the room.
However, instead of opening and examining the room, he picked up a cane on the edge and propped the door up, so that it seemed locked from the outside. He did it slowly, so that the action could not be heard by someone behind the door.
"No. no. no.." The sound of footsteps had drifted away, this meant that he had already left this place. The man breathed a sigh of relief, and tried to open the door.
"Clack-cklek.."
"Why this?"
"Clack-clek.."
"Why can't it be opened?"
He realized that he was trapped in the room alone. He went back to being worried and looked around. He realized that there was a window still open from the outside.
He immediately tried to escape through the window. But unexpectedly, before he wanted to jump out, he saw a tiny hand emerging from the window.
The young man was startled and retreated slowly to the back.
"Huph.." At once, the innocent little girl managed to appear by climbing from the window. He looked perfectly monstrous with a kitchen knife illuminated by the moonlight behind him.
"I found you.. Brother.." He said with a big smile.
"Ti-no.." the man slowly retreated and tried to bang on the door of the room.
"Shelves-brak!!"
"Ahhaha.. Panic out!! Panic out!! ahahahaha!!" The woman laughed enjoying the expression of the extremely frightened young man. The woman approached him slowly.
"Young!! a tonloongg!! Open this door!! Help!!" Said the man, but no one answered.
"Hehehehe, you can't escape anymore, Brother.." The woman was so close that the two of them saw each other.
"Julbb.. I found you, brother." The woman thrust the kitchen knife she was carrying right into the man's stomach. And I don't know why there is still a smile that adorns the girl's face.
"Argh.. My sister's.. Why does it have to happen like this." There was a look of regret engraved on the man's face.
"Yeah. Brother lost yaaa. so now Brother who must treat me to snack tomorrow morning."
"Yes, yeah.." Reply to the man lazily. Then, the little girl took off her knife which turned out to be just a toy knife, and the stomach of the man who was stabbed earlier did not bleed at all.
"Yayy, I love Brother!!" Said Thea who was the younger brother of the man, hugging his sister tightly.
"Here, it's up to you.." Reply Dias who is none other than the sister of Thea.
"Theaaaa, Diaaaaaas, time for bed!!" Shouted a 36-year-old blue-haired and blue-eyed woman named Neia Floryn.
"Great, that's mom's voice!!" Said Dias who was misgivings after hearing it.
"Don't get caught, let's hide." Then Dias took Thea out of the palace.
"Baaa!!" Suddenly Neia appeared from behind the exit.
"Girlgig!!" Both of them shouted in unison.
"Where are you going on gini nights, huh?" Neia said as she reached out to Dias' ear.
"Awww, aww. Maaa's pain," Dias suffered.
"Maa, forgive Brother, I beg you." Pinta Althea to her mother.
"No pardon - pardon. Now that it's 12 pm, you should go to bed!!" The jewels were added to Dias' right ear as well, so that there were two ears that had been ripped off by his mother.
"Awww, yes, I'm not going out anymore, really.."
"Promise not to mess around outside?" Neia said, bringing her face closer to her son.
"Yes promise, but let go my ear first!!" Hearing her son's request, Neia immediately released her jewelry from her son. Dias' ears immediately turned red after being picked up earlier.
"Aish, why do I pray that I get a jewel, why didn't Thea get a jewel too?" Dias complained while walking along with his sister and mother back to the room.
Dias has a younger brother named Althea Foryn, commonly called Thea. He was only 1 year older than Dias, and more active. His sister looks more like his mother than his father. She has bluish hair with eyes that are also blue.
The four of them, living in the Kingdom of Farnesse which is currently controlled by the family surnamed Foryn. This Royal Family has brought prosperity for several years.
However, although the situation in the Kingdom looks so peaceful, it does not mean outside the kingdom also experience peace. The Kingdom of Farnesse still had to fight against the Kingdom of Gurdun who tried to expand its territory even wider. In addition, because the territory of the kingdom is too broad, sometimes there are still many areas that are not considered welfare so that there is a lot of conflict.
The conflict did not just arise, but there were a group of people who tried to plan a rebellion by inciting the residents to hate the kingdom and promising things that they could not be sure to keep.
*hisense..
"Daughter, Lord Prince, it's time to wake up.." Said one of the servants who took care of the two of them named Maine.
Maine tried to move the body behind the blanket. But strangely, there was no reaction from both bodies after being moved. Maine opened the blanket.
“Sreet–” on the mattress there are only neatly arranged bolsters and pillows.
“Where are the two of them?” Maine in the heart.
“Boaaaahhh!!” Suddenly from behind, Adias jumps towards Maine's back.
“Thea!! catch her leg!” Thea obeyed her brother and came out from under the bed. He held the servant's leg firmly.
Dias then shook Maine's body to make it fall on the mattress.
“Prince? what are you doing?” Ask Maine who's lying in bed.
then Dias took out some markers from his pocket, “Hohoho.. I want to dress you up to be even more beautiful.” Said Dias who had moved to crush Maine by holding both hands using his feet.
“Tidaakk!!” Maine screamed, but no one listened. Desperate, Maine finally forced to give out his magic abilities.
“teleportation.” Suddenly Maine disappeared and moved behind Thea.
“Anjirt!” Dias was very surprised by Maine's ability to suddenly play lost.
“Sorry Sir, you still need 100 more years of practicing magic to catch me, Hahahaha,” Maine said. Afterwards, Maine asked Thea and Dias to take a shower and get ready, then have breakfast with his parents.
“Ahh, my two cute and cute kids! Let's eat here.” welcome the father of the two children named Vyros Floryn with a friendly.
Both of them immediately sat in front of the dining table which provided many luxurious and delicious food there.
“Dad, Dad!! it's sunday, right? so Dad's off from Dad's job isn't he?” ask Thea with passion.
“Woiyadong.” Reply Vyros while showing his thumb.
“Yayy!” Thea said with pleasure. Dias also looks excited to hear his father's words.
“So, where are we going now? Dad?”
“Hmm... How about we go to the kingdom's magic development site? There are many magic-magic that are very cool! There you can also learn magic together,” Invite his father who still has never taken his children there.
“Okayy.” Reply Thea and Dias simultaneously.
“Oh yes, later ki–”
“Ehm.. chat continue, when do we eat it?” chirps Neia who was waiting to start eating together.
“Ah, yes Yes.” Reply Vyros while scratching the back of his head that does not itch.
Finally they’a together and eat the food on the table with wisdom.
It was only after that, that they all went to the Magic Development place with Maine's teleportation magic. They all seem to enjoy it and joke around while learning new things. Ranging from basic element magic (fire, water, wind, earth) to derivative magic (ice, lava, poison, lightning, etc.).
After taking a walk, they all returned to the Royal Palace.

"Tobias, what's really going on?"
Vyros asked Tobias who was astonished by the strange situation of the palace. Many Royal guards who should be guarding outside the palace even guard inside the Kingdom.
"Even Your Majesty the King. Today I got a report that there are some undercover intruders inside this palace. In order to ensure your Majesty's safety, I have the entire Royal Guard stand guard inside the Palace." Tobias explained.
"Invader huh? Hm.. " Vyros thought long again. After that, he asked his wife and two children to immediately return to the room first to clean themselves.
After arriving at the room, Dias and Thea took a shower and changed clothes. It was only a short while later that the two of them immediately headed to the dining area for dinner.
Vyros, Neia, Thea, and Dias had dinner together with quite a sumptuous meal. The four of them were able to eat their food voraciously, except for Vyros. He felt that there was an oddity in this palace.
"Ride, Mamaaa.. I'm the one cooking this." Said Thea who showed the rolled eggs arranged very neatly on a plate.
"Wahh, it looks really good.. You're so smart to make it, my dear." Neia said proudly as she rubbed her son's head.
Behind them, there were several guards watching them eat. Vyros noticed some guards whispering. It is common for them to be guarded at mealtimes by a few bodyguards to prevent something unwanted, but the present bodyguards are not the same as the ones from yesterday.
After eating, they all immediately returned to their respective rooms.
Dias and Thea are escorted by Maine to their room, then read a fairy tale before going to bed. Until they don't realize that a terrible tragedy is imminent.
*Elsewhere..
"Hahahahaha, with such a plan, it is certain that this Kingdom will fall into my hands! Hahahahaha," said a burly man sitting on the roof of a house not far from the Royal Palace.
