Not the Novel World
116. The Book of Lilian I

Seint picked up the book in Asgar's hand and slowly opened it. The first page of the book contains several sentences that say the ownership of Lilian.

Sometimes protecting our loved ones will go a long way toward making us happy.

Lilian Daisyla Marven

The words written on the first page. Seint then opened the second, third and so on but he could not see the writing other than the first page.

"This book is empty." Flat talk.

Duke Marven frowned confusedly. "Can I check on His Majesty?" Ask politely.

Seint nodded briefly then handed the book to Duke Marven. Just like Seint did, Duke Marven opened the sheet in the book but there was no writing visible there.

"Yes ... It's just an empty book." Duke Marven was disappointed.

Sein again picked up the book and looked at it strangely. "It is impossible that Mr. Martin would keep this book in secret in his residence if it were not important." He said while recalling the incident a few months ago when Lilian read a letter that had no writing but the girl used a candle to see the writing.

"Get me a candle!!" Say Seint fast.

"What's up, Your Majesty?" Ask Asgar curiously.

"A few months ago I saw Lilian using a candle to read the inscription on a scroll of letters. Who knew the writing on this book would appear if we did the same." Obviously Seint.

Asgar nodded quickly then immediately he picked up the candle as per orders from Seint. After the candle was lit, Seint brought the book closer to the candle but they had to swallow disappointment because the book still looks empty without any writing there.

"The book is empty." Duke Marven.

"It looks like we should bring the Crown Princess back here to check out the book." Artem.

Seint nodded quickly. "No! He just left the palace. It would be exhausting for him if he were to return to the Palace again." Her speech.

"Then we go there." The Reinal King.

Everyone stared in surprise at King Reinal. "Can't be Your Majesty. It would be very suspicious if His Majesty the King and the Crown Prince simultaneously went to my residence." The Duke Marven.

"We're going to your residence in disguise. I'll have one of my bodyguards to replace me here. People would have thought that I would still be in the palace." Obviously King Reinal.

"But Your Majesty ..." Duke Marven said worriedly.

"This is my absolute decision, if we don't move as soon as possible, the traitors will be more and more throwing a tantrum. I can't just sit in the Palace, you better not protest and get the horses ready so we can leave immediately." The Reinal King.

Everyone just nodded resignedly hearing King Reinal's decision. After the preparations for the departure towards the residence of Duke Marven had been completed. King Reinal and the others exited the Palace towards the side gate of the Palace so as not to arouse the suspicion of the people.

Lilian hugged Rosa very tightly when she saw the girl. It has been almost two weeks Lilian can not see it and can only communicate by letter only.

"I miss you so much Rosa ... It's been a long time since we've been apart." Lilian said happily as she took off her embrace.

"I miss you, Your Majesty. Since you left, I've only been back and forth to Tuah Ni's house to find the information you need." Rosa said happily.

"Who are you with there?" Lilian asked as she walked towards her bed.

"I went there with your bodyguards but they just kept me from afar so as not to arouse suspicion." Clearly Rosa.

Lilian smiled happily. "Good Rosa ... You can always count on me." He said while giving his two thumbs. "Then is there any other information from Tuah Ni?" Ask again.

Rosa nodded slowly. "As long as His Majesty is in the western region. The people of Tuah Ni said there was a very foreign person seen entering the residence of Marquis Gaustark. That person was wearing a very strange shirt, Tuah Ni said the clothes he was wearing were similar to the clothes of the magician group." Answer

"Come away Your Majesty ... Long ago there were witches but their existence disappeared along with the disappearance of the dragons." Answer Rosa.

"Then why did the witches appear after a long disappearance?" Lilian asked suspiciously.

"Come away Your Majesty ... But I suspect this has something to do with Citto's whereabouts now." Rosa Say.

Lilian stared at Citto who was sound asleep on her bed. "Is it because Citto finally emerged that the witch came out of hiding? But what does that have to do with Citto." Thought Lilian.

"Maybe they're planning something? But what?" Said Lilian more to herself.

"Are they planning anything else related to Citto?" Ask Rosa seriously.

Lilian nodded slowly. "Can be ... In the western region we get some information about witches. They attacked the dragons for power." His words paused and Lilian opened her eyes wide. "That's it!!" His words spontaneously startled Rosa.

"What's up, Your Majesty?" Ask Rosa to panic.

"They want power ... I'm sure they're up to something. No ... No ... I need to call Seint immediately." Said Lilian as she stood up from her seat and intended to walk out.

"Where is your Majesty going?" Ask Wheel panic.

"I have to go see Seint and tell him this ... At least they should know what their true purpose is." Said Lilian quickly.

"No, Your Honor ... You just arrived. I will send a notice letter to the Crown Prince." Rosa's Proposal.

"Can't Rosa! I cannot discuss this by letter ... I have to meet him in person to discuss this." Said Lilian while walking out.

"No Your Majesty please ... You just got back. Can Your Majesty leave tomorrow?" Please Rosa is worried.

"Can't be Rosa ... This is very serious and should be discussed immediately. Go to prepare for departure there." Lilian.

Rosa just took a slow breath. "All right, Your Majesty ... Yet let me to go find Young Master Zheyan to escort His Majesty away." Bargainly.

Lilian nodded slowly. "Go ... I'll wait here." He said as he walked back to his bed.

Rosa finally rushes out of the room to look for Zheyan's whereabouts to escort Lilian back to the Palace to meet Seint.

Lilian had been waiting for Rosa's departure for a long time, but the maid had still not returned. Lilian even walked back and forth waiting for Rosa's arrival.

"What happened to Rosa ... Why did it come back so long." Annoyed Lilian.

"I can no longer wait ... Rosa's too long." Lilian muttered then walked around her bed and raised Citto's body.

"It would be better if you went to Citto. Seint will be mad at me if I don't take you with me." Lilian muttered to herself then walked towards the exit.

Before Lilian actually reached the exit. Rosa returned with a breath.

"What's Rosa? Have you met with my sister?" Ask Lilian quickly.

"I did find him Your Majesty ..." Rosa's words are paused.

"However? Speak the truth Rosa don't piece things." Annoyed Lilian.

Rosa caught her breath. "I was looking for Mr. Zheyan to all the residences but could not find him. Finally I went to the chocolate processing place, who knows Mr. Zheyan was there. After arriving I did find him but Mr. Zheyan was also in a hurry here. I was confused at first but I finally knew that Lord Zheyan was in a hurry because His Majesty the King, the Crown Prince and the others were heading here. They may have entered our residence." Clearly Rosa.

Lilian no longer asked Rosa anything. After handing over the Citto, Lilian walked out of the room in a hurry and walked towards the meeting room.
