Arriving at the prince's palace, Lucas immediately took Zeria to his room and placed her on the bed. A magnificent room with a spacious mattress, and decorated with expensive and luxurious displays. There were no bookshelves in the room, quite the opposite of Zeria's room which was filled with all sorts of books.
"You go to sleep, it's late at night" Lucas said, pulling the blanket and lying next to Zeria. Lucas patted Zeria's back gently for Zeria to fall asleep.
"Yeah, it's late" For Zeria, whose soul is almost grown up, he should be clapping her back for nothing. But Zeria was different, because no one had ever patted her back so wholeheartedly and warmly before.
"When ya last time anyone patted my back this warm. Emmm, I've tried to remember it as hard as I can. But apparently, no one has ever treated me this warm. I'm happy" he thought, because this is the first time he's been treated that warmly. Zeria is comfortable with her new family who loves her very much.
A few minutes later, the two boys fell asleep. An older brother of almost 9 years and his younger brother, who was just 1 year old, slept in the same room and mattress. Lucas' affection for his sister, made him fall asleep with the position of hugging Zeria. A sister who loved her dearly, was a stranger to Zeria.
#Morning of Day
"Good morning Princess, you wake up so early" said Reina who was standing by the side of the bed.
"Savior Leina morning" Zeria said as she rubbed her eyes.
"Did the Princess not want to sleep again? It was still early in the morning" Reina suggested that Zeria sleep again, because the sun had not yet appeared.
"No, I want to walk the street" Zeria smiled at Reina with a half-conscious face.
"But are you not afraid that something like last night will happen again?" Reina, who was worried about Zeria's safety, suggested that it was better for Zeria not to go outside.
"I'm fine, there will be Leina and the guardian nutmeg. And there's also an older sister" Zeria smiled.
"Ahh, fine if that's your wish. But the Princess must be kind, because there is still important guests from other kingdoms staying at the palace." Reina tells Zeria that, lest she make a mistake in front of that important guest.
"Yes, alright" Zeria answered quickly.
The two of them prepared to go outside, Reina changed Zeria's clothes in a warmer one. Lucas, who woke up to a noise in his room, chose to go around.
#Main Palace Park
"Hahh, the air in the morning is indeed cool huh" Lucas took a deep breath.
"Yes, it's tegal (Very fresh)" replied Zeria.
Sitting under a tree in the middle of the garden, guarded by three bodyguards, and Reina. They enjoy the cold morning air. But Zeria was troubled by something. A faint faint sound that was carried by the wind, yet it seemed that only he had heard that voice. Because the Zeria is the offspring of angels, all of its senses are sharper than the average human.
"Arin, did you hear that voice?" Zeria asked Arin.
"Yes, I heard it. I don't know whose voice it was, but it sounded like he was angry" Arin felt strange, how could anyone dare to get angry at the main palace.
"I'll check it" Zeria said.
"Emm, brother. I want to go to the toilet first, Leina turn me back" Zeria asked permission to go to the toilet.
"Do I have to take care of you until you get there?" Lucas is still worried about Zeria.
"I miss Leina Caja" Zeria tried to persuade Lucas not to go too.
"Alright, Reina take care of him" Lucas looked at Reina sharply. The meaning of his gaze was like 'If my sister gets hurt, you're going to die' I guess like that.
Reina nodded slowly towards Lucas, then carried Zeria and left immediately. Lucas watched Zeria leave, until he was nowhere to be seen. Reina carried Zeria to the toilet, but Zeria forbade her.
"Leina, we go to the main warehouse" said Zeria to have Reina escort him to the warehouse, the origin of the sound.
"Eh, don't you want to go to the toilet? But why the hell go to the barn?" Reina was confused by Zeria's behavior.
"Here you go, let's go to the warehouse" Zeria remained persistent with her choice that would check the sound.
"Well, fine if that's what you want" Reina immediately turned towards the warehouse. The distance between the warehouse and the toilet was not too far away, so Lucas would not be suspicious. After a while, Zeria arrived at the warehouse, the door of the warehouse slightly opened. Reina and Zeria peeked out from the crack in the door, and Zeria was surprised by what she saw.
"What the hell is that?!" Zeria Sangan was shocked and angry when she saw an angry adult man who was beating a boy who was only about 5/6 years old. Zeria could not bear to see the man's behavior, and Zeria's patience began to run out.
"Leina, come in" Zeria tells Reina to take her into the warehouse.
"But, Princess. That's dangerous" Reina said.
"Huh, I guessed it. I should have just come alone, I should have known, if I had invited Reina, she would have banned me. There is no other choice, Arin" thought Zeria who already had no idea and immediately called Arin.
"What's wrong?" Ask Arin
"Time-stopping magic can last up to how many minutes?" ask her.
"Emm, about 3-5 minutes. What's up?" Answer Arin.
"All right, that's enough. Arin, I need your help. Show me your form, then stop the time." Zeria's orders.
"Eh, okay." Although Arin is confused, Arin still carries out his orders. Arin appears next to Zeria, but this time she wears a dress like a short-sleeved dress and a knee-length skirt, with blue shoes.
"Well, what the hell is that?" Arin also realized that there was a child who was being beaten.
"Stop the time, now" Orders Zeria.
"Okay, but you have to be careful. Because you're going to feel side effects too" Arin gave Zeria a suggestion, then immediately stopped her time.
"Hey, carry me. I don't want to be carried by Reina, I want to take a closer look" Zeria said.
"Hahaha, hurry up and walk. You really are like a child" Arin's voice made Zeria a little upset, but Zeria held back her anger because now there was something more important.
Arin carried Zeria into the barn, and thought about what they would do to the man, However.
"Hiks hyks" the sound of crying was heard behind them
"Eh, haven't I stopped the time? But why is there a child crying?"
"Okay, I'm surprised too. Wouldn't it be better, now that we turn around and look at it?" Zeria.
"Yes, alright" Arin turned surprised for the second time "Huh? How come?" continued.
The sound of crying belonged to the child who was being beaten earlier. The boy was not exposed to the effects of Arin's time-strengthening magic. What's wrong with the kid?.
"Thank you brother" The boy spoke.
"Ehh? Wait, you're talking to me?"Arin asked the boy.
"Yes" answered.
"Ehh, how could he see Arin? Who exactly is this kid?" thought Zeria.
"Ah, stop. We'll ask later, now what are we gonna do with this guy?" Ask Arin.
"Put into the kingpin" replied Zeria.
"OK, I'll do it" replied Arin and immediately transferred the man to prison.
"Again, thank you" the boy thanked me again.
"Eh, I'm not the one who helped you. The one who helped you was this Princess" Arin mocked Zeria a little.
"Eh, really? Thank you Princess" said the boy.
"Yes, tama-tam" said Zeria interrupted. Zeria felt a pain in her head. And suddenly, blood came out of his mouth and nose. "Ehh?" Zeria put her hand on her mouth and saw the traces of blood on her hand.
"Mr Princess?!" The boy was also surprised.
"Zeria?!" Arin was surprised too.
The pain in her head was unbearable, making Zeria unconscious. Time has returned to normal.
