Fake Princess
Dvii Chapter
I raised my head followed by both hands tightly hugging my own body as the morning air completely pierced. Sometimes, I lift both my palms to the front of my face before blowing them with warm air coming out of my mouth. “Princess,” male voice review followed by the footsteps of the horse that walked closer.
“Alright, Princess,” he said again when he had stopped his steps before me with two horses on his right and left.
I walked towards a brown horse on his right. My body moved up the horse then grabbed the reins that Tsubaru gave me, “Tsu nii-chan, checked everything?” I asked by holding the horse's harness.
“Everything I've checked, Princess. No one was left behind,” he said who slightly raised his face to look at me.
I nodded my head then moved my horse walking closer to Haruki and Izumi who had also been riding their horses. “Good Morning,” said Izumi who turned her head towards me.
“Congratulations .. Morning,” my hatchling stopped for a moment, I covered my mouth that was yawning as my horse stopped right beside him.
I blinked a few times in my eyes, staring at the shadow of someone running over. The man who ran earlier stopped his steps in front of Tatsuya who was sitting on the horse back at us all. Tatsuya turned his horse over to walk towards us as the man standing beside him walked backwards, “Your Majesty, his ship has come. They, already waiting for us there,” Tatsuya said, he stopped his horse by staring at Haruki.
“Alright,” Haruki replied as she moved her horse walking past Tatsuya.
I took my horse along after Haruki, occasionally glancing back, staring at Eneas and Ryuzaki who had also been riding their horses right behind my horse. I again threw my gaze forward, occasionally I raised my face again.
My face came down again when a frenzied voice rang out from a distance, I stared at the line of men carrying baskets or wooden boxes in front of a large ship in the harbor. “That's all, will be sold to a great many merchants in other Kingdoms. Every two weeks, our ships will send all these items for sale,” said Tsubaru who made me turn to him.
“Does it matter? I mean, the Emperor already very clearly knew our intentions, didn't he?”
“Because of all those items, it can only be obtained in the Kingdom of Sora. Every merchant, is under the protection of the direct Father, with some trained Knights guarding them, and of course the sailing security that directly comes from Aydin for us. So, inevitably .. They have to get rid of all their selfishness, for the sake of trade between Kingdoms. Did you forget? If the World economy is in our hands?”
“More, Dad increasingly aggressively provide capital for a lot of Kingdoms build a Bank with the distribution of the proceeds from the profits of each loan made by the residents in these Kingdoms. Thanks to the advice from you, our Kingdom is getting richer without the need to waste a lot of energy,” Haruki continued back as he turned back to look at me.
“After I thought last night was full, the possibility that Ryuzaki feared happened was only caused by two things.First, we lack help from those who are not human, second … An enemy in a blanket that will destroy all our hard work. Therefore, we just have to get both of them before the moment it happens,” he continued while moving back his horse walking following the crowd who had walked up one by one to the boat.
I moved my horse back to walk after Izumi who had also been riding her horse walked past. I thrust my horse to the side of the ship, long before the sea water that stretched before me. “Princess,” again Tsubaru's audible voice made my gaze diverted.
“You, don't think to jump there, do you?”
I glanced at Haruki who had been standing next to me, “aku, not going to do such a stupid thing for something unimportant,” I said by again throwing my gaze into the ocean.
“How are you doing?”
“I'm fine, isn't that question .. Should nii-chan ask Ryu directly? Look, even Izu-nii, already very familiar with it.” I said again while pointing towards Izumi who was rubbing Ryuzaki's back with an occasional laugh.
I nodded my head as Haruki's gaze turned to me, “and also, where is Lux? I didn't see it from the morning,” I said by moving my head back towards Izumi who was still laughing non-stop, “what is she, being with Eneas?” I asked Haruki again.
“They have been with Tatsuya since morning, Tatsuya got word since yesterday if there were some intruders caught … So they want to try the poison that Lux and Eneas just made to test on the intruders.”
“They both, look very excited if it's time to test the poison they made,” I said by turning back to the wall of the ship.
“That was the result of their hard work, if the poison they made was successful .. They would be more eager to make another one, so just let it go, again … We alone will benefit from all the hard work they both do.”
“I will catch up with them, to see firsthand how the results of those poisons are. Be careful, do not suddenly disappear ... On this ship, you are alone woman,” Haruki said, I nodded my head as he touched my back before stepping his foot past Tsubaru who had also walked towards me.
“Daughter, your room is ready, if the Princess wants to immediately rest,” said Tsubaru who had stopped his steps before me.
I turned around by looking at the sea behind him, “ stand beside me, Tsu nii-chan,” I said while keeping my eyes fixed on the ocean.
“Nii-chan, if I now jump into the sea then don't reappear after doing so. Will Tsu nii-chan jump into the ocean?”
“This servant of yours will not do it, because the Princess I serve, is too clever to do such a foolish thing.”
I turned my head and laughed at him, “my brother is too smart to sacrifice himself, right?” I exchange it by looking back at the surface of the sea, “stay alive, nii-chan. Even if I take a life before you, live for me .. Because if everyone forgets about all our hard work, I want to. Tsu nii-chan remembers it. I want Tsu nii-chan to remember me. So stay alive, whatever happens, stay alive. Promise me,” I said with a smile back looking at him.
