Elona'S Legacy
Preparation for the Coronation of the New Soldier
Tok... " Crown Prince, this is butler palace can I come in?"
" go inside! what interests butler's palace?"
Butler came in saluting with a 45-degree bow with his right hand touching his chest.
" I carry a message from His Majesty the King, the Crown Prince is assigned to prepare for the coronation of the soldiers of the new palace guard"
" Tell the King I will carry out his orders" after receiving a reply from Ricardo, butler withdrew from the room.
" Las you went to a place near the border that Count Raymond intended, see if there's any other information we can find!"
" Good Crown Prince, I'll be leaving soon"
" Elona, I'll give you 4 days of rest until the show starts because then you'll follow me like Lucas and Vander"
" Thank you Crown Prince" Elona exited the room
" Vander you're gonna help me prepare for this coronation"
" Both my Crown Prince will prepare the necessary things" when Vander wants to get out of the room Ricardo asks Vander "What do you think of Dame Elona?"
" When viewed from these 2 cases it seems like he is a person who is quite quick to respond in assessing the situation around him and he is also a very careful person, he said, besides, I saw that he had the fighting spirit of a soldier who loved the kingdom and the people. But to be a personal bodyguard requires sword skills and I also don't know the character he has" Vander explained
Hearing Vander's words, Ricardo let out a small laugh "Hhmpft.
" I should have told you that, Crown Prince. You treated him with an unusual attitude" Vander replied with a face full of curiosity. Ricardo just tilted his head with a questioning face.
" You treated him like an old friend"
" That's how it is. maybe what you say is true"
" Lately he's been weird about his attitude, has he been eating wrong? or maybe the cure is over?" inner Vander with his flat face.
" Hey.. Vander you're not insulting me in the heart, are you?" ricadro said jokingly
Vander shook his head, after their conversation was over Vander came out of Ricardo's room and began to organize the preparations for the coronation and tighten the security of the palace during the event. At the same time Ricardo in his office tried to recall what happened after the slave sale case.
In Ricardo's memories of his previous life, the case only ends in a mysterious man's search because the man managed to escape, now that he finds out the man is Viscount Raymond.
" Did he manage to escape with the help of the people in the palace? border area? is it the same place as the mine and the gem? does this have anything to do with the kingdom of Merioa? I have to start taking note of whatever I can remember "Ricardo spoke to himself
The Marques Delaona residence
Meanwhile, Elona who had arrived at her house was greeted warmly by the servants who were at her house "Young lady, congratulations you have returned". Elona replies with a smile and goes to see Marques Delaona in her study.
Geck.. Geck... Geck... " Are you busy, papa?" while opening the door to his father's office
" Elona you haven't been home in a long time.Papa misses you my son" seeing Elona, Marques immediately stood up from his chair and hugged Elona.
" Elona here sit down and tell me what happened during your mission? why is it like this too?"
A few minutes later, Elona told me all the details and also about her performance.
" Have you considered the Crown Prince's offer well? Being a personal bodyguard was an honor but also a very dangerous task. Papa only has one family if something happens to you." said Marques with a worried face.
" Papa calm down, I know the risks of the decision I take and I will take good care of myself so as not to get hurt" said Elona
" Papa can only support your decision. Although protecting the Crown Prince is an important task but you must not put you in danger" while patting Elona on the shoulder
" Is there a job I need to help you with? The Crown Prince gave me 4 days off before the coronation began"
" No, you must be tired after completing your mission. Rest !"
" I'll go to my room then"
After Elona came out, Marques Delaona saw a picture of him and his wife hanging on the wall of his study "Our son is now grown up, he looks more and more like you", the photo shows Elona inheriting her father's silver hair and her mother's Emerlad-like eyes. During her few days off, Elona she ate with her father and trained her sword skills along with her father's soldiers who were in the training arena.
One day before the coronation, Ricardo's office
Tok.dok... " Crown Prince, I have inspected the preparations for the event and ordered the security of the palace to be tightened "Vander gave a report to Ricardo.
" Thank you for your hard work, Vander what do you think of the slave sale case? Is there a possibility if the nobles cooperate with other kingdoms?"
" What did the Crown Prince mean for them to plan a rebellion?! vander asked with a surprised face
" It's just a temporary guess, which makes me confused why the teenagers were sent to the border?"
" But it's strange if they're right to plot a rebellion about what it has to do with teenage boys and girls, if they wanted to make them as soldiers it would also take a long time for experts in martial arts as well as fighting using swords"
" Yes, I hope my guess is wrong. We'll wait for word from Lucas"
The day of the coronation of the new soldier had arrived Elona had put on her warrior uniform and was preparing to leave for the palace together with her father. Elona and her father boarded her horse-drawn carriage
" Are you tense?" marques
" slightly"
" Not what is normal, after meeting with your garden-friends you will soon forget. As long as you don't forget to make your soldier promise to the Crown Prince" Marques Deolana joked. Finally, Elona laughed and forgot her tension.
