Not the Novel World
69. Patience

The atmosphere of the meeting hall was very crowded. The nobles from earlier only glanced at each other with confused faces. It seemed like the King wanted to discuss something very important.

"His Majesty the King has arrived." Shouted one of the soldiers.

From the direction of the door of the hall was seen King Reinal walking with a very serious facial expression towards his seat of greatness. All the nobles present instantly bowed their bodies and paid their respects to him.

"Greetings to His Majesty the King, may the heavens continue to bless you." Speak the nobles simultaneously.

"Sit down." King Reinal said coldly.

The nobles immediately took their places and waited for what the King wanted to say.

"The last few months I have been investigating what goods are in the kingdom." King Reinal's words began to open his voice.

Everyone looked at the King with a serious look. "There are some goods that made it into our kingdom by illegal means. The border soldier reported that the items that entered earlier were already very closely inspected." Said King Reinal while circulating his gaze to all the nobles.

King Reinal let out a rough sigh. "Two days ago there were two tigers that entered the territory of the noble Princess. After I investigated the carcasses of the two tigers, I found the same thing to both." Obviously King Reinal.

King Reinal then took a short breath. "The two tigers turned out to be affected by the drug so that the tiger went out of control and attacked the Princess noble area. That drug is one of the drugs that entered our kingdom illegally. If the Soldier has done a thorough and rigorous inspection of the incoming goods it means that the illegal goods entered through the nobles." Obviously King Reinal while tightly clenching his hands.

Everyone was shocked to hear King Reinal's words. Moreover, the King said if the possibility that brought in the items were the nobles.

"Although Your Majesty, earlier why did you say such a thing?" Said one of the nobles.

King Reinal looked solemnly at all the nobles. "The "kingdom of Apollonia was dubbed as one of the largest empires on the continent due to its enormous resources. One of them is through trade. The goods that will be traded in this kingdom must previously have an entry permit. If the goods from small traders have been checked closely then I am sure if the illegal goods entered with the help of insiders. The noble families have the right of privacy in guarding their incoming goods, so the border guard soldiers do not dare to carelessly inspect the incoming noble family items." Obviously King Reinal is long.

"After a thorough investigation, I found the names of the nobles who were trading with other kingdoms. The items entered without the Soldiers checking first, so I concluded that in our kingdom there have been nobles who tried to cheat." King Reinal said firmly.

The nobles began to panic at the words of King Reinal. "For now I have not obtained any evidence of your involvement but this case will still be investigated. If any of you are involved then get ready to get severe punishment from me. For now for the nobles who are still trading with other kingdoms, then the privacy rights I previously granted today I withdraw all. All goods that enter the kingdom from now on must be checked first can only get a permit to enter." Obviously King Reinal was loud.

The boisterous sounds of the nobles were heard filling the meeting hall. "In this way I hope to suppress the culprits, they will definitely try to move cautiously again. They will definitely look for other ways to smuggle the illegal goods back in and at that time I should be able to catch their crimes and give them the most severe punishment." The Inner King Reinal then gazed towards the several nobles. "Your names are in my hands, so just wait and see!" Inner again.

After resting a few days in his residence, Lilian now began to carry out her activities as the Crown Princess. After the inauguration ceremony, the Queen gave her enough time to Lilian to recover her body condition after the last time.

From morning Rosa was busy preparing the needs Lilian needed while at the palace later. While waiting for Rosa to prepare everything, Lilian sat staring at her face long in front of her makeup mirror.

"This tiger's scratching wound was supposed to heal for a long time but somehow the wounds on my face and body seemed to heal very quickly." Lilian's mind while holding her face which still has a scratch mark.

"Miss need not worry, the scar will definitely disappear very quickly. Miss's wound has now dried and peeled off, now just wait for the scar to disappear." Said Rosa with a bright smile.

Lilian still looked at his face seriously. "The longer I stay using my old body, somehow I feel tired even though my wound healing is very fast." Inner Lilian's back.

Rosa looked at Lilian who had just been silent. "Is Miss okay? Does Miss still need a break?" Ask Rosa Worry.

Lilian regained her senses from her daydream and looked towards Rosa. "No, I'm fine. If all the preparations are done, we should leave now." Said Lilian as she walked up to Citto and carried her out of the room.

After saying goodbye to Father, Mother and Brother, Lilian departed with the palace troupe who came to pick up.

Arriving at the palace, Lilian was greeted warmly by many servants and led her walking towards her private room.

"Please enter Princess, this is your room. If anything is lacking, please Your Majesty just say so." Said the waiter while opening the door of a very large room.

Lilian looked doubtfully at Rosa who was looking at her with a smile. Early on he returned to his past, Lilian had always felt awkward when called Miss and now it was not until a year that Lilian had to get used to being called Princess.

"I will not stay in the palace but why am I provided a room?" Lilian asked confusedly.

The waiter smiled at Lilian's words. "You are the Crown Princess of the Apollonia kingdom so it is natural to have a room in the palace. The result of the opportunity of His Majesty the King with the Lord Duke Marven before the Princess married His Highness the prince then the Princess will still stay in your Father's residence but because the Princess now has the responsibility against your new title so this room will be your resting place." Obviously the waiter.

Lilian nodded briefly. "Then what's your name?" Lilian asked the waiter..

"My name is Nora. I have been given the task of taking care of all the needs of the Princess while in the palace." Nora Yell.

"But I already have Rosa." Lilian looked towards Rosa.

Nora smiled cheerfully. "Rosa is the personal servant of the Princess of your Father's family and I am the Servant who will also help Your Majesty take care of all your needs." Nora Yell.

"Then do I have an additional waiter?" Ask Lilian.

"Yes. The Princess." Nora said politely.

"Song as well, which means Rosa's gonna have a conversation partner." Said Lilian smiling happily.

"Please Your Majesty, come in and look at the room first." Nora invited Lilian in.

Lilian entered her room and stared in amazement at the room. The room is very large, all the decorations in the room can be Lilian make sure it must be very expensive all. Lilian walked up to the wardrobe and opened it, she could not hide her admiration, inside the closet was already filled with clothes that Lilian would wear. Don't forget the jewelry and other accessories she needs.

"Everything is complete." Inner Lilian.

"Is there anything the Princess needs anymore?" Ask Nora.

"no need. I think it's all complete." Said Lilian quickly.

Nora smiled brightly towards Lilian. "Good then, Your Majesty." Her speech.

Lilian looked seriously at the scroll of documents she was now in her hands. Only a day Lilian served as the Crown Princess but the documents she had to work on were almost mountainous in front of her.

Lilian occasionally sighed softly reading the contents of the document, but she continued to focus on reading the scrolls until she did not realize if someone came and sat in front of her.

"Is the contents of the document so important that you have no one sitting in front of you?" Said Seint while leaning her back on the back of the chair.

Lilian lowered the scroll in her hand and looked towards Seint then focused on reading the document back.

"You are still angry with me." Said Seint while pulling the documents in Lilian's hand.

Lilian sighed softly. "It looks like Citto is now sound asleep." Lilian said as she looked at Citto and ignored Seint's whereabouts.

"You're ignoring me? Seint asked as he looked coldly at Lilian.

Seint again seized the documents in Lilian's hands and removed the other documents so that Lilian had no reason to ignore them.

"What do I have to do to make you forgive me?" Said Seint looking at Lilian seriously.

Lilian looked at Seint annoyed. "You're just asking now? Where have you been these past few days? You haven't even seen me since the hunt was over." Said Lilian annoyed while throwing her face away.

"You're angry about that? I have to take care of something very important with Artem. After the hunting was over, Dad immediately sent me west to investigate the important matter. I even went home in a hurry to get to you." Obviously Seint.

Lilian stared with a sharp look. "Lied!!." Keto.

"Ask Artem if you don't believe it. Before leaving I wanted to see you but Dad said it was very important and urged me to go west." Seint is back.

"I don't forgive someone easily." Ketus Lilian's.

"I knew. Then from that... I'll keep all your wishes as long as you're willing to forgive me." Seint.

Lilian looked seriously at Seint. "really?" Ask Lilian.

"Yes." Yeah." Seint.

" All right." Cuek said, then looked back at Seint. "What research are you doing there?" Lilian asked, beginning to wonder.

Seint sighed softly. "Me and Artem went there to investigate something related to Citto. I think Citto can come here because he was called forcibly." Obviously Seint.

"meaning?" Lilian asked confusedly.

"In the western region there has been a dragon summoning ceremony. Fortunately Citto appeared in the area around the area of hunting activity at that time. If he shows up at the ceremony then I don't know what they're gonna do to him." Said Seint while staring at Citto.

"What would they do if Citto showed up there?" Lilian asked curiously.

"Dragon is an animal that does not easily obey someone. If he shows up there then Citto could be arrested and tortured so that he submits and would listen to the person who has done the ceremony." Obviously Seint.

Lilian looked sadly at Citto. "Thank God the Citto came to my tent." Sad talk. "Then what did you find there?" Ask Lilian.

"We need to do more research." Said Seint who did not want to explain it to Lilian.

Lilian nodded briefly. "May I ask you something?" Tanya Lilian was serious.

"So you were asking me this." Say Seint flat.

Lilian stared at Seint flatly. "You're still a bitch." Her speech.

"What do you want to ask?" Ask Seint.

Lilian cleared her throat for a while then looked at Seint seriously. "Since the memory loss, I've been very curious about this." Lilian said. "Didn't you have a relationship with Miss Raina?" Tanya Lilian was serious.

Seint raised next to his eyebrows and looked at Lilian not like it. "No!" Said firmly.

"You don't have to lie to me. Just tell me the truth, I promise I won't get mad." Lilian.

"I've said no but it seems you want another answer." Say Seint flat.

Lilian sighed softly. "Aisss Rosa said before I crashed, I saw you with Miss Raina hugging on the lake." Lilian.

"I don't hug him." Firm Seint.

"Then what?" Lilian asked, getting annoyed.

"Just help her." Say Seint flat.

"Shelping by hugging her?" Lilian asked as she stared cynically at Seint.

"She slipped and accidentally fell on me." Obviously Seint.

"Then you naturally caught his body and there was a friendly scene?" Ask Lilian cynically.

Seint hissed slowly. "You're the only one who thinks that." Ketus Seint's.

"Then what is true?" Ask Lilian.

"I was waiting for you and accidentally met him." Seint.

"Why are you waiting for me?" Ask Lilian.

"At that time I just finished traveling with Artem and then on the way home I saw a hair makeup. I bought it and I'll give it to you." Obviously Seint.

"Then where is that hair makeup." Lilian asked curiously.

Seint blinked a few times. "That's a. that's..." Nervous Saying.

"Where?" Lilian asked urgently.

"Taken with Miss Raina." Seint hesitated.

Lilian stared fiercely at Seint. "Get out!!" Banish Lilian.

"I'll give you much prettier hair makeup." Seint.

"don't want. Out!!" Get rid of Lilian again.

After Seint's patience, he then stood up from his seat and pulled Lilian's hand to stand with him. As Lilian was standing, Seint pulled the nape of Lilian's neck and kissed Lilian's soft lips.
