Fake Princess
CCLXXXII Chapter
"Miss."
There was a male voice coming from behind, I moved my head towards Jabari with some men behind her. Some of the men stood with plates full of food and four chairs in each hand.
Some of the men walked over, they arranged the four chairs around the table while others placed dishes containing food in their hands neatly arranged on the table.
"We bring food for all of you" Jabari said a few steps back from one of the chairs beside her.
"Please enjoy the meal," continued Yoona, standing up from the chair she was sitting on.
"no need. You can come to dinner with us" Haruki continued walking closer, pulling the chair beside me and sitting on it.
My head turned to look at Izumi as well as Eneas who was walking closer to one of the chairs. I looked at Izumi who hit Eneas on her tiptoes back on the head as Eneas whispered something to Izumi before they sat side by side on the seat that was beside me.
Haruki and Eneas lifted the spoon that was on each plate. They both tasted the food in turn, each time they tasted the food... The two of them would be silent for a while before continuing to taste the other food.
"You two just tasted the food, did you two?"
"No problem, poison will not kill us," Haruki chimed in on Yoona's words, putting the spoon in her hand back on the plate on the table.
"How's it?"
"We can eat it" said Aeneas, chiming in on the questions Izumi asked.
"Your name is Jabari, isn't it?" I glanced at him.
"True," he replied to my glance with his gaze.
"Can you give this medicinal herb to your friend," I moved my hand to the side, I grabbed a small bottle of ceramic covered in white cloth inside the bag I was wearing.
"Your friend who was suddenly paralyzed, this medicine will help him remove the poison. So, he'll be able to move his body back later," I said, lifting the bottle towards him.
"But why?" He walked forward approaching.
"Yoona has told me everything. Actually, it was my doing. And say my apologies to him," I said moving the bottle slowly hoping to be picked up by the man immediately.
"Thank you, I'll tell you," he said grabbing the bottle and then walking back a few steps.
"Why did you put the cut fruit in the bag? Wouldn't that mess up your bag?" Yoona's words suddenly sounded, I followed her gaze which was looking at Izumi.
"I like to collect food, even if it has been cut, I will very easily eat it when suddenly hungry," said Izumi moved her hand holding the apple piece into a bag containing Lux and the Uki hanging on her shoulder.
"You're so stupid, Ka..." Eneas' speech was stopped by the blow Izumi had done to her head. Aeneas lowered his head with one hand rubbing his head.
"Sir."
"Not Savon?"
"Haruki said?"
"I'm no stranger to that name." Whispers of the men around us took turns.
"Don't tell me, one of the Sora Kingdom Princes who was rumored to have died six years ago?" Jabari stepped forward a little.
"You know that?"
"How could I have forgotten, my sister... Followed by the burning of the forest six years ago," Jabari answered with a trembling voice.
"My sister was assigned to escort you home, at that time she looked very happy because she often heard rumors how to hold her captive to the Kingdom of Sora. But what happened, I heard the news that he died with the Princes and Princesses because of the forest that suddenly burned," continued Jabari again.
"Can you tell me what really happened?"
"I'll tell you everything, but... Is," said Haruki glancing towards the line of men.
"Trust me, they won't reveal any secrets. Although we're upset that you killed Mr. Hanbal, but as you say... If we respect him, then we must respect all his decisions."
"What do you think Izumi?" Haruki looked at Izumi who was peeling an apple with a small knife in her hand.
"Izumi?" Their whispers back were faintly heard.
"They are closely related to the Empire, moreover we almost died because of the Emperor. But, it was not the Knights who tried to kill us, but the creature," continued Izumi cut the small Apple fruit that he put on the plate and gave it to Cia.
"Haruki, Izumi. What're you?" Jabari looked at me from where she stood.
"Takaoka Sachi, Princess of the Kingdom of Sora," I returned her gaze.
"You're all alive?"
"We are all still alive, who died during the incident were the bodyguards who drove us," Haruki said, stabbing the piece of meat on his plate with a fork and eating it.
"Did you kill him?" Jabari clasped her hands tightly.
"Is that possible? Six years ago, was it possible for us to kill Knights who were much bigger than us?" Tukas Haruki while still devouring the piece of meat that was in front of him.
"Emperor himself who had killed his Knights. The emperor himself has killed your friends..."
"And Jabari, the Emperor himself killed your beloved brother" Haruki said, putting the fork in his hand on the table.
