Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter I Chapter 9

"No-nona..is it true that I can enjoy all this?" Faced with a delicious pancake from the city's famous pastry shop. Mary was surprised because when she ate it, it would be the first delicious cake she ever enjoyed in her life.

"Sure and Mary, didn't I say call me Alice."

"Sa-me..ehem, sorry." Mary again almost forgot not to speak formally.

"Then, thank you." With a big smile, Mary's slightly trembling hand reached for the fork on the side of the cake. Slowly cut a little cake with the fork, then apply it on a tempting-looking caramel sauce that melts from the top to the bottom of the pancake. Mary's eyes twinkled as she looked at the small piece of cake she was about to bribe into her mouth. "Enak!Ueenaw!"

The wide smile plastered on her face made Alice laugh. Mary regained consciousness after she heard Alice's laughter. He felt so embarrassed that his cheeks were red.

"There's no shame. Just continue with it."

Alice who sat in front of Mary while propping up her chin noticed the sweetness of her little servant. Sepang time later the sound of the doorbell and the welcome of the store owner made Alice's attention suddenly diverted.

As he enjoyed the scene before him, a young man wearing a hooded robe appeared. "Would I look like that if I were wearing the clothes Mary said I was wearing?"His mind. From top to bottom, Alice noticed the clothes the man was wearing. "Powers. Too showy. Only a fool would want to wear such clothes in broad daylight" he thought again.

After all, the man looked suspicious. He was standing at the front desk of the cashier and seemed to be ordering something. "He's not an ordinary person." Alice still judged the man in her mind. His firm posture, footsteps and breathing showed that the man was a trained man.

I felt he was being noticed since. The man turned his head and looked for the glare of the eyes that were paying attention to him. As he looked around, he only found an ordinary girl who just kept looking at him. The man did not think long and only felt that the girl's gaze might just be curious.

Little does he need to know that the girl he considers ordinary is actually Alicia Lein Strongfort who is always chasing after him. And so does Alice. Because I can't see the man's face. He did not think that the man himself was the prince of Kevin Ries Solus, as well as the crown prince of the kingdom of Solus whom he had been infatuated with.

After eating the cake with pleasure, Mary still could not lower both sides of her lips even after they came out of the store.

"Is it that good?" For Alice who ate a delicious meal every day, the pancakes they had enjoyed were mediocre.

Mary nodded quickly. "I even want to add."

"Then why didn't you say that? How about we go back?"

"Necessary. I'm not feeling good. You also bought a lot for my family." Mary is so grateful for what she has received at this time. Alice is an important person besides her family. He was so kind and watched the people around him. Mary could never even imagine the day that she would befriend a noble, even if it was just this time.

"Where do we go next?" They arrived at the crossroad of the road in the middle of which there was a small fountain.

Following Mary's lead they walked again to the right. "My house is across the street in a small alley."Alice moved to follow Mary. After passing through some people passing by. Mary quit "Dann? Dann!" Shouted Mary calling someone from across the street.

Alice saw a little boy in slightly shabby clothes waving his hands from across the street. The man was carrying a basket and some paper. Is he selling? Is it a newspaper?

The smile on the man's face greeted Mary, his older sister. Sangking happy he rushed to run towards Mary passing some people who passed by. "Sister!" Call Mary's sister running over.

"Surge! Move aside! Get off the road!" Shouted a coachman who rode a horse carriage so quickly. How can a horse-drawn carriage go so fast in the middle of the city?

The coachman did not care about the people in front of him. He continued to whip his horses while yelling at the people to get out of the way.

The sound of screaming and pounding the horse's legs reached Alice's ears. But the distance and the crowd more and more make it difficult for Alice to move to help Alice.

"Revelation! Get off the road! Ha!" The coach is getting closer

"Damn!My body is still not fully recovered. This way..."

Dann's sister Mary kept running up to them.

Unfortunately the scream was unable to grab Dann's attention. Dann just kept running across the street "You know how else." Alice took a swing and was ready to move quickly towards Dann "At least I have a healing potion right now. But before he jumped, a man darted ahead of him.

The man darted so fast and immediately grabbed Dann. Due to his sudden appearance, the horses that the coachman was controlling were startled and stopped suddenly. Fortunately, the horse carriage behind him did not reverse but only stopped suddenly.

The driver got angry and got off the train. "You! Do you know what you've done?!" With his index finger and face flushed red with anger, the coachman shouted at the man who was helping Dann.

Alice is shocked, but what saves Dann is the cloaked man she met at the cake shop. Alice and Mary approached them.

After getting off the man's sling. Dann ran crying into Mary's arms. "Sister! I'm afraid!

The 9-year-old boy almost died in front of him. Alice clenched her teeth in anger and stared intently at the coachman.

The coachman who was unaware of Alice's sharp gaze continued to babble."Oi you! Are you deaf huh?! I asked if you knew what you just did?!" The coachman once again snapped at the cloaked man with his loud voice.

"Ck. This is how the commoners don't know the position." The driver snorted. "I told ya. You're blocking Count Lehman's chariot." Clearly so haughty. The driver then saw a crying Dann sobbing in Mary's arms. "Son, you and your family should be prepared to take the risk of offending a noble." Threaten her while looking down on Dann and Mary.

The cloaked man could only quietly wait for the right time to move but was different from Alice. Seeing the crying Dann and Mary's frightened face made her ride black.

Indeed, if he has lived five hundred years but has not been able to control his anger, to hell with it. Alice had seen enough of the principle of strength to oppress and control those who were weak.

"This noble is that nobleman. This lowly is that low." Mumbled slowly.

The atmosphere around them suddenly became slightly colder. Perhaps the coachman, Mary and the others were unaware of that, but the cloaked man felt something strange.

"What energy is this? Doesn't feel like magic, where did it come from?" His mind suspiciously sensed an unfamiliar surge of power.

The robed man was stunned for a moment and started to observe his surroundings. He felt nothing coming from the crowd around him. Then, the cloaked man turned his head towards the girl beside him.

"Him? There's no mistaking it, that strange energy came from him."

On the other side. The coachman continued to babble and denounce Mary and her sister. What about the owner of the horse-drawn carriage? He didn't even show himself.

The driver is getting worse. When her hand started to hold Mary's arm hard enough. The robed man realized that the coachman was on the verge of his life. From the pressure that the girl beside him put out, the cloaked man was quite hesitant if he could stop the girl with his strength. He did not want any casualties especially if it had to be in public.

The robed man immediately pulled the hand of the coachman holding Mary's arm.

"You!? What the-"

Not finished, the coachman screamed in pain. The cloaked man did the same thing even harder than what he did to Mary.

Keep clutching the hand of the coachman, the man in robes then make the coachman bend the knee. He "Tell your master that he still wants to sit in his position as a noble. Go away and never do the same thing again." Firmly the man while whispering in the driver's ear.

The frightened coachman immediately ran towards the horse carriage he was carrying. From behind the window he conveyed the message of the cloaked man.

Because there was no response and saw the coachman just stay there. The robed man approached them. He took something out of his pocket and a voice of a man's cry ordering the coachman to leave was heard coming out.

Look at what just happened. Alice began to feel astonished and suspicious at the cloaked man before her "What exactly is the identity of that man?" However, more than that, thank goodness Mary and her sister were fine.

The three of them then thanked the cloaked man.
