I'm becoming the Princess?
Chapter 24

The second day of Lucas and Eric's training stop. Zeria's condition has improved greatly, because now the air in his palace is not cold. Zeria's body was very weak as she was a mixed child, let alone against the cold air.

“Bosannn” Zeria has said that more than 30 times since this morning.

“Hey, I'm more tired of hearing you say that since earlier.”Lucas sat on the sofa right in front of Zeria's bed reading a book.

“Patience, I'm more bored to know. I want to swing the sword” Eric who as Zeria's personal bodyguard, stands beside Zeria's mattress while watching her.

“AAAAA!! I WANT TO READ BOOKS!” Zeria was already unable to contain her sense of boredom. Because for Zeria, the best everyday is to read books all day.

“Akh! You're noisy, all the books in this room there will be a lot of” Lucas covered next to his ear with so his index finger because of Zeria's scream.

“Everything I've read” Zeria's face turned moody.

“Jeez, Eric, you see? At the age of just one year through this little, he had already read all those books.” Lucas sighed because to his surprise who saw his sister as he pleased on the book.

“Yes, I know that. Because every day, he always went to the library to eliminate his boredom. And because of that too, he can see us practicing every day.” Eric was really calm to be among the sister brother whose attitude was the opposite. “I'll get you a book from the library, what do you want?” Eric glanced at Zeria sharply, but Zeria was looking out the window, so he was unaware of Eric's sharp glances.

“Anything” Zeria replied with a fixed view pointing out the window, his large golden eyes staring at a bird that alighted in the window of the outside of his room.

“Alright” Eric lowered his head, then went straight to the library to pick up the book.

“What are you looking at in such amazement?” Lucas closed the book and walked over to Zeria, who was sitting on her bed.

“Seekol mom bulung. He pengelgi in his warm channel headed to a cold place to dig food for his children. He must love his children, right?” Zeria was still staring at the bird, in the bird's beak there was a worm to give to her young. And that made Zeria realize how happy the chicks had such parents.

“Hey, did you forget that I was here?” Lucas held onto Zeria's face with both hands, and made Zeria look at him. Lucas's face pouted, the tip of his eyebrows furrowed, but he did not appear to be angry.

“Ka..kak?” Zeria was confused by Lucas' current reaction. An expression he had never seen from Lucas' face before.

“Don't forget that I'm here. I would do anything if it was for you” His hand that still holds Zeria's face, now feels a little trembling.

Zeria is a person who is very insensitive to circumstances. He did not know how to choose the right word with the current situation, so he just remained silent without speaking. On Eric's side.

“What book do you think Princess likes? So far, I've only seen him read State books and imperial documents. Am I trying to bring a picture book?” Eric was worried about picking a book for Zeria, whereas Zeria said ‘anything’ but he was still confused about choosing it. “But, if you think. Yesterday was a pity, right? I almost succeeded, but I failed again. Which this time should succeed” Eric's gaze changed in an instant, his gaze sharp and burning. He was planning something big.

Eric picked out a few books, rather a lot of books. He went from the library to Zeria's room. Eric went through a detour connected to the back garden of the Zeria palace, stopped for a moment to look at the garden and smiled, but his smile felt different from usual.

“Sister, usually what do you do at this hour?” Zeria tried to find a topic of conversation, because since then they were always busy with their respective affairs.

“Emmm, learn. Since this hour was a lesson in history” Lucas casually replied without turning his head, he was still busy understanding the book in Zeria's room.

“Jam like this? Wait, why is it that you are not belajal now?” Zeria narrowed her eyes and frowned.

“Emm, that..” Lucas could not answer Zeria's question, and instead ended up stumbling.

“Kakak?” Zeria raised her tone, and her gaze intimidated.

“Benalah?” Zeria narrowed her eyes, but arrived.

Brakk!

The door of the room opened hard.

“PRINCE!” William is in a hurry to find Lucas.

“W-William?!” Lucas, surprised by William's arrival, stands up and reflexively turns away from him.

“Prince, I've been waiting for you since. But why didn't you come? Today we will study history, but why are you even relaxing here?” William's sinister aura terrified Lucas.

“A-I forgot, haha” Lucas sweats because of the sharp lyrics by William and Zeria.

“Then let's go” William pulled Lucas' arm and dragged him into the study room. “Sorry for my insolent nature who arrived without knocking, then I excuse” William bent his body and put his hand on the chest, without releasing Lucas, then immediately left.

“Zeriaa, help me!!” Lucas screamed for help, but Zeria did not respond at all because it was worth it, and Eric who reached the same time as William just saw without helping Lucas a bit while smiling. “Eric! Just watch out for you!” Lucas was still screaming, but he was being dragged and even angry.

“See you” Eric waves his right hand with a smile.

“Hahh, my head hurts” Zeria held her head and closed her eyes for a while.

“Haha, can I get you some milk?” Eric put the book on the shelf next to Zeria's bed.

“Iya” Zeria again looked out the window, and it turned out that the bird he had seen was no longer there.

Eric asks Reina for help, who happens to be heading to the room to get Zeria some milk. Either it was a coincidence or whatever it was, but Reina was always around Zeria's room. It was probably because Reina was Zeria's foster mother, Zeria read one of the books that Eric brought quietly while waiting for Reina to come back and bring milk and snacks. Eric stood next to the window and looked out the window.

“What do you see?” Zeria asked without taking her eyes off the book she was reading, but amazingly her concentration did not fade and could still focus on both.

“Hmm? Bird” parent Eric turned to Zeria for a moment, then looked out the window again.

“Hmmm~” Their conversation was interrupted. Because basically they are both quiet and not good at talking. Moreover, Zeria, his physical ability is very bad compared to anyone.

Shortly after, Reina knocks on the door and brings Zeria's favorite milk and snacks.

“I just put it here?” Reina placed her tray on the table closest to the bed.

“Iya, that's where Zeria” closed his book. Eric approaches Zeria and helps her move to the sofa, while Reina makes Zeria's bed.

Zeria already considers Reina as her own mother, because Reina was the one who had taken care of her from her childhood. Eric brought the tray that Reina had brought to the middle table, to give to Zeria. In the midst of that peaceful silence, something unexpected happened. Zeria stared in shock at Eric in disbelief.

“Eric?”
