Fake Princess
CCCXCVIII Chapter
“I don't have any plans. I don't even know what to do,” Haruki said, turning around and stepping away from us.
“Are we not resting?” Izumi stepped behind him, “we will rest, if we have found a resting place that I feel is suitable,” he said raising his palm upwards.
I glanced to the side when I heard the sound of a sigh that Eneas let out, “I hope, I can rest soon,” he said along with his feet following the two of them.
“Come, but I strongly agree to Izumi this time,” both my eyes glanced to the left as Lux sounded whispering softly, Izumi said, “doesn't we always meet with many things that almost make us lose our lives,” I whispered back by stepping slowly following them.
“You are right, good luck .. We can all still survive until now,” Lux whispered very quietly.

“It has been a few days we walked Nii-san, is our destination still far away?”
Haruki stopped his footsteps, he turned his head towards Eneas who was standing beside me, “still very far away. We are only close to the borders of other Kingdoms, and we will stop there in a few days to do something,” he said back turned his back on us.
Haruki again continued his steps, I sighed before stepping up to follow them. Many times, I stomped my feet alternately to the ground just to relieve the fatigue that enveloped him.
“Are you sure? We will stop first in Il Kingdom?” Haruki stopped his footsteps, he turned his head towards Izumi who had been standing next to him, “they are one of the Kingdoms that fully supports the Empire,” Izumi continued to tell him.
“I know, because it ... We have to destroy it."
"Me-destroying? Don't tell me, a pilgrimage visit to Dad's friend's grave is just bullshit?"
"We're going to visit him. But before that, we will pass through the Il Kingdom first. Why don't we do two things in one job, it will save us time," Haruki said again continued his footsteps, “they are neighbors with us, and they will not do it, it will be troublesome if they fully support the Empire when we want to rebel against the Emperor,” Haruki continued to Izumi who again walked after him.
“Kingdom Il? Who meant it, Yoona Kingdom?” Haruki nodded his head without looking back, “I want you Sa-chan, help me to make this plan work.”
I stopped the footsteps with a slight gulp of my own saliva, “aku?” I asked slowly who was answered by the nod of Haruki's head back, “ I want, my sister took out all her charms. In order for the Prince who will be appointed as King Il next tempted.”
Izumi stopped her footsteps again, she looked at Haruki with her lips slightly opened, “did I not listen to what you said?” Tukas Izumi, Haruki stopped his steps then turned to look at him, “did I not clearly say it?” Tukas Haruki turned to look at us in turn.
“You want to ask Sachi to do what?”
Haruki sighed, “I want to ask Sa-chan to tease the next King Il candidate,” Izumi takes a strong bite of her lips by firmly grasping both hands, “what are you?!”
“Izumi, I have not finished my words,” Haruki's glance made Izumi speechless, “I got information from one of the spies I assigned there. He said, if the successor of the next King Il has no descendants. As per the tradition there, he will not be appointed a legitimate King if he does not have children.”
“Am I that stupid to the point of wanting to give my own sister to just any man,” Haruki again glanced sharply at Izumi, long time she did before returning a long sigh, “ in a few weeks, long time, he will hold a quest for a Wife after his long-term wife is executed by himself. Sora is still not too stable to conduct open war, moreover .. Savings of our wealth a little conceded in the past. Because of that..”
“I used as bait to open the way to nii-chan, to attack directly to them,” Haruki bowed with a slight smile on her lips, “I will not let her touch you. Trust me,” he said as he raised his face back to look at me.
“I understand. Just make sure, if this plan works .. All the jewels inside their Palace, are entirely mine,”, said Haruki.

I sighed with a slight head up as my eyes fell towards the gigantic fortress surrounding a region, “how do we get in there without being checked by the Knights on guard?” I again lowered my glance towards Izumi who was muttering softly.
“You doubt me?” My eyes turned to Haruki who chimed in on Izumi's words, “just wait. I have given him the news,” Haruki said back to speaking.
“The table?” Haruki nodded his head back at Izumi's gaze, “there,” Haruki said back by rolling her eyes at me.

“Sachi, Eneas, wake up,” the voice continues to be heard over and over again, I tried to open my eyes as the roaring voice of the horse also sounded.
“What have they arrived?” My murmurs rubbed my eyes, occasionally my eyes closed again followed by my mouth that was unceasingly yawning, “Zeki has arrived,” said Izumi who made both eyes immediately open.
I sat down, I stared at the hundreds of Horse Knights who were marching through the trees in the forest in a brown horse-drawn carriage with golden layers on the right and left of the carriage, “what are you kidding?!” My body was slightly jolted as a powerful Zeki snapping sound rang out from the side.
“Zeki! Haru-nii!” I went straight up to run towards them, “what are you two doing?!” My voice rose again, I raised both my hands to try to break them.
“Your brother, I have obeyed all his orders. He asked me to resist the attack and continue to cooperate with the Kingdom that used to work with my father first, I did as he commanded .. But now,” said Zeki, he said, he gripped firmly at the clothes Haruki was wearing.
“She asked me to deliver my own partner, so that she would be one of the future wives of a man I did not know. Do you think I'll take it?” Tukas Zeki returned with a slightly audible voice trembling, the stronger the grip of his hand earlier.
“Explain to me, what really happened? Haru nii-chan?!” I turned towards him who was still silent noiseless, “I asked Zeki to resist the attack, that's right. I asked Zeki to establish cooperation with the Kingdom that used to work with his father, that is also true. One thing is for sure, before Sachi bears the name Bechir, he is not yours, he is still my sister, Takaoka Sachi,” Haruki said behind clutching the armor that Zeki was wearing.
“Do you not trust my sister? Do you doubt his loyalty? If so, get out of the way and go back to Yadgar! My sister, needs a partner who can support her, not a selfish partner who prevents her by fearing to lose her,” Haruki said back, she pushed Zeki's body until Zeki slightly retreated to the back a few steps.
“If you weren't his sister, I might have killed you.”
“If only my sister hadn't been protecting you all the time, you would have died in my hands,” Haruki said to Zeki.
