Fake Princess
Aniela Zygmunt (Side Story') III
Did I miss something?
Wh why? Today there are a lot of knights hanging around.
“How about the spear? Have you checked everything?!”
“Quick! We don't have much time before the Prince and Princess go home.”
The voices of the Knights did not stop rubbing my ears. Some of them are pushing carts full of arrows, while some are - “Anielia, what are you doing here?!”
I turned around, looking at Luana's brother who walked over by holding Hikaru's hand beside her, “kakak, what happened?” I was confused looking at him.
“Cute me!” his orders followed by his other hand clasping my arm, “The emperor attacked Sora suddenly with a large army. There will be a big war, we are ordered by Dad to take shelter,” he said stepping while pulling my hand.
“But-”
“You don't know how terrible the Emperor is. You don't know, these dangerous creatures are under his command. When all are at war, their minds will be calmer if we have been protected,” he turned around while staring intently at me.
“Mother, cold,” my eyes and eyes turned towards Hikaru who spoke trembling by hugging Luana's waist.
“It must be Sachi. Hurry up, they all must have gone home,” Luana continued back, the stronger the grip of her hand that pulled me.
He kept walking pulling me without even looking back, the longer we walked . The wetter his hands were with sweat. “Tsu! Prepare my armor!” the sound of Izumi's cry stopped our footsteps before them.
My body pecked as my eyes fell towards the large winged creature standing near them. The entire body of the creature was white, only his eyes were red light that had been moving around. “Tatsuya, have you prepared it?”
“Had prepared everything, Your Majesty,” replied the man named Tatsuya who stepped his foot behind Haruki.
My eyes turned to the frozen grass near the creature's feet. When I raised my gaze back up, his mouth was unceasingly emitting white smoke. “Satoru, you have prepared everything I need?”
I immediately turned my head and bowed my body when Father's voice knocked on my ears. The middle-aged man standing behind Father bent his body before he finally walked away from Father. I turned back, looking at Mother who was walking towards us with Sasithorn and Miyu behind her.
My eyes shifted towards Izumi and Haruki who were walking with two men behind them. The armor they wore, looked glare as sunlight fell on the surface of their armor. The steps of the four of them came to a halt, both Haruki and Izumi stood up by bowing their heads in front of Father.
“Dad!”
“Hikaru, don't be like that,” said Luana, she crouched down, trying to block Hikaru who was about to run.
“Dad, definitely going home, right?!” He lowered his face, raised one hand rubbed his eyes before lifting his face back, “promise, Dad will be home.”
Haruki walked over then sat crouching before them by raising both his hands, “how old are you now, Hikaru?” tanyanya while holding Hikaru's hand.
“Tu-seven.”
“Because Grandpa who usually keeps us going, so it's my job to protect them. I understand, Dad don't have to worry.”
“What are you talking about?”
I was stunned as my eyes fell towards Sachi who was standing with a man named Tsubaru behind him. The black armor that he wore, looks firmly attached to show the curves of his waist that always hide in loose clothes that he often wears.
“She cried-”
“I didn't cry,” timpal Hikaru's voice to Izumi.
“So like that,” said Sachi as he walked closer, “Hikaru, do you still remember the secret words that aunt taught you?”
Hikaru nodded his head in reply to some words that I did not understand, coming out of Sachi's lips. I was stunned, when an ice circle formed .. I was more surprised, when so many animals that I had never seen before came out of the circle. “They're the Manticores that Auntie has. They, will help you guard the Palace. They will only listen to your orders, Hikaru .. Command them to use the words that Bibi taught, then help us to protect the Palace. This gallant Aunt's niece can definitely do it, right?” hatch Sachi while rubbing Hikaru's head a few times.
"Dad will be home soon. I leave them all to you" said Haruki kissing his son's cheek, "Miyu," he held up one hand until Miyu walked up to greet his hand.
"You know what to do, don't you?" he said, standing in front of Miyu, Miyu nodded her head without saying a word, "Dad is counting on you, my daughter," she said, bowing and kissing Miyu's bowed forehead.
"Luana."
"I will take good care of them. Don't worry about us, just go back home" said Luana who was met with a nod of the head from Haruki.
"Sister, take care of them," Luana nodded her head as Sachi stopped her words.
The two of them again walked up to Mother, along with Izumi, Ryuzaki and of course her. “Promise you to Mom to come back home. If your hands or feet are cut off, promise to stay home. Did you guys hear what Mom said?”
“We understand, Mother. Don't worry, we're all going home,” said Haruki, she hugged Mom followed by the others.
“Ryu!”
Ryuzaki closed his eyes as Sachi called out his name .. Out of nowhere, the fence made of plants suddenly grew tall like the walls surrounding the Palace. Aeneas turned his face as our eyes met, he stepped away following Father who had also stepped away.
My eyes turned back towards Sachi who was moving closer to the white winged animal I had previously seen. He moved up the animal before the strong flutter of the animal carried him flying high away.
“That's amazing,” I muttered slowly as the white animal flew faster and disappeared behind the wall of the plant Ryuzaki made.
“You're right, he's amazing. Even he too, who used to save us from the Emperor's trap.”
My head turned to look at the smiling Luana with her head slightly looking up. “Luana,” Luana turned to look at the Mother who called her.
“Prepare everything, we will do a ceremony to mendo’akan them,” continued Mother returned who was replied to a nod of the head by Luana.
