Princess Altrelia
18: Alstrelia

“Why did you two run?” Ask one of the other knights who happened to be coming and accidentally saw Lena and Anders both running like they were chasing a thief.

Lena just kept quiet, and continued her work to run, because she would hand Anders over to give orders to her co-worker.

Anders immediately said and told his co-worker. “We're chasing the lady who went into the forest.”

“What? Miss get into the forest?” tanyanya, still not believing about her mistress who is quiet and likes to lock up in the mansion, suddenly entered into the forest. 

“Therefore, order some people to come look for him.” After saying so, Anders again ran after Lena who was far ahead.

“Nona into the forest? It feels like Miss Altrelia with such a nature, it is impossible to do anything strange.” murmured this man. But as the situation looked very alarming as well despite still being in disbelief, this man directly returned to the training ground to call a few people to conduct a search, just like what Anders had ordered. 

Back again where Anders and Lena are still strong to run far, in order to chase after their Miss Altrelia.

.

“Lena!” Shouted Anders to Lena who was already ahead there.

Lena who had just been yelled at, immediately stopped running.

“What?” Lena asked, trying to catch her breath after running for more than 400 meters.

“Are you sure about the lady who went into the forest?”

“If you have any doubts about what I see, don't follow me!” snapped Lena, seeing the doubt in Anders' eyes about Miss Altrelia walking into the backyard, where behind the fence there is a wilderness.

‘Not bag-”

“Shut! I'll go look for him again.” With a fierce look, Lena ran back to leave Anders there.

“Wait for me!” Anders eventually decides to follow Lena again, as the forest is always associated with unexpected danger.

Although the mansion inhabited by Altrelia is not so far away from the main mansion, but because of its location, it is still around the forest, so Lena who saw her lady went into the forest, she said, immediately make the heart and feelings no longer because they are not afraid. 

Although the residence area of duke Fisher was surrounded by a guardrail, but not with a high fence with bars behind the mansion where Miss Altrelia lived.

“What is this?!” At once Lena was surprised not to play, because the four-meter-high iron fence, right at the end there was a tear from the pink dress worn by Alstrelia. ‘Nona~ Did you finally bring that hatred by bringing that pink dress into the forest with you?’ inner Lena.

“That's not the fabric of the dress belonging to miss?” Ask Anders who also saw the tear of a pink cloth.

“................!” Lena who saw Anders was a knight, directly gave the order directly to him. “Anders! Carry me and jump over this fence.” 

“What?!” surprised Anders got a request from Lena.

“Quick! No time to think again!” Lena said in an upset tone because Anders instead showed a surprised reaction, as if her request was still impossible for Anders who had not long been a knight from the residence of Duke Fisher.

“Iya!” Anders replied, having to comply with Lena's request.

Anders also carried Lena ala bridal. After that Anders stepped back to take a swing.

DRAPON…....DRAPON….DRAPON……

Anders immediately ran fast, and just over two meters away before crashing into the fence, Anders instantly put a strong pedestal on his right leg with strengthening magic.

When at height, Anders really did not see any Lena eyes tucked in fear because they had to jump that high, especially by being carried so.

The woman in his arms remained fixated on his seriousness. Seriousness to pursue Miss Altrelia.

After making it through the fence, the two of them began their search again.

“What really happened?”

“Nona, she originally said that she hated the color of the dress that the young master gave her, and she also said she hated the engagement that the young master would make with Miss Arsela. 

I was also sad to see the sad Miss Altrelia so for not having the courage to express her feelings directly to Mr. Alsrescha. 

So I offered the lady the blue dress to her, and what happened was that now the lady was secretly gone. Miss went with hatred along with the dress she was wearing.” Obviously Lena was at length to Anders.

Anders who heard it was bitter. Because it turns out there is a sad story behind the luxurious dress at exorbitant prices worn by Miss Altrelia.

Anyone must feel hurt, if what is worn on his body is something that he really does not like, but is forced to wear it to not get dissatisfied feelings from the giver.

Moreover, the Miss Altrelia he knew was a person who could not express her feelings so blatantly. With his condition like that, then the feeling of pain can only be harbored alone. 

Wh why?

Because no one could understand him well, and Altrelia was a person who did not have a single friend. 

If there is, then it is just an expression that is thrown from the mouth alone, without any actual friend relationship.

Anders and Lena continue their quest for their young lady, Altrelia.

Well.

Although Miss Altrelia was a quiet person and preferred a gloomy expression, she was still their master whom she had to look after.

That's the job of the employer and a subordinate that Lena and Enders did to their Miss Altrelia.

But there is one more problem that they both get. In that dense and vast forest, where should they look?

“Can't you use detection magic?” ask Lena to Anders.

“I still don't have that level.” replied Anders briefly.

Lena actually regretted it, because it turns out Anders still does not have the ability to master the magic. If there were, it would be very helpful.

“But I don't understand, why can't miss climb a fence that high?” Anders asked astonished by one problem that kept on holding his mind.

“That I don't know either.” Lena was also strange, because the Miss Altrelia they knew had no ability other than to have a wall-like expression. “For now don't think about that. All we have to prioritize is to find the miss until we meet.”

Anders agreed with Lena.

Off Flashback.

________________

“After that I searched for miss along with the Anders knights for almost 2 hours. No matter how deep we entered the forest, what I accidentally discovered was a woman standing behind a tree. 

But because at that time I really saw a woman who I found very similar to miss, I immediately took her with me to the middle of the event mr.” Clearly Lena was at length to Alrescha with nothing to hide in the least.

“And after that, the master directly slapped him just like that right?” elbert continued on the explanation from Lena that began to make sense, for the incident where Alrescha their master was suddenly slapped back by women who happened to have the same face as their Miss Altrelia.

“..................................” Alrescha covered half of her lower face with her right palm, but her pair of eyes glanced at Elbert and Lena alternately with the glare of her sharp eyes. “Simply he dared to slap me twice and scold me without the slightest hesitation.” Alrescha murmured.

DEG!

That one fact made Alrescha and Lena instantly silent.

What Elbert asked Lena instantly dealt the biggest blow to Lena herself who could not find him.

But the hardest hit was Alrescha. He actually saw clearly the reaction of the sad and guilty face of Lena who was nodding her head slowly, that of Altrelia, who was, the lady that Lena served in person had already disappeared and was still undiscovered to this day.

“True. I have not found miss.” replied Lena with high guilt.

Alrescha was a little hurt when he heard the confession from Lena who really had not found her sister, Altrelia.

“Master, what should we do for miss Altrelia search?” Elbert asked Alrescha who was cold but full of thoughtful faces.

“Tell the tower leader, to help with the search for my sister. But do it secretly, you understand what I mean, don't you, Elbert?” alrescha told Elbert.

The only quickest way is to ask for help from the magic tower. Because with magic, what Alrescha will contact is the leader of the magic tower, the possibility to find Altrelia is quite large.

That is what is expected of Alrescha who is being beset by her own worries.

“Good.” 

“Then for you Lena.” Alrescha spoke again while glancing at Lena with her fierce gaze.

“Ya sir. I will accept any punishment you will give me for my ineptness in watching miss.” Lena went straight down from the sofa and knelt down to Alrescha.

“I won't blame you for this, because it's all out of your own control. But tell me, who's the woman you brought? Why does he have the exact same physique, face, even eyes, voice and hair as my sister?” alrescha asked in great detail to Lena.

Because here, all the origins of Alrescha slapped, yelled, until insulted right in front of him directly is because Lena turned out to bring a foreign woman into her residence.

For a moment, Lena hesitated to answer because Alrescha kept staring at her as if she would not let Lena go until everything was explained clearly. 

“Sorry, for the question my master also still does not know for sure. But the lady I brought with me also happened to have the same name, which is Altrelia.” Lena said clearly. "I will try to find her true identity, so for now, please have her temporarily replace the miss." Lena Imbuh.

“.......................”

In an instant the atmosphere inside the workspace belonging to Alrescha immediately became silent.

They were silent because in their own minds.

All right, just serve the woman for now. While he's here, everyone won't suspect that my brother is actually still missing. Although her nature is very different, and they will consider her crazy though, because I think that woman can indeed overcome such trifles, you just keep an eye on her.”

“Good sir.” Lena was still kneeling down respectfully.

“You can now go.” Alrescha command to Lena.

Lena simply nodded, and immediately moved from there.

After Lena's departure, now the ones in the room were just the two of them. 

Alrescha and Elbert were still in the dead, until Alrescha muttered to himself. “Aclimbing fence? My sister doesn't have that much physical strength to jump over a fence that high, or climb it though.”

‘So you mean sir, sir really thinks your sister is weak huh?’ Thought Elbert.

“But-” Alrescha gets off her couch, and walks towards the big window right behind where her desk is. “I am indeed a big brother who cannot protect my own sister, until she has her own understanding that I look at her hatefully.”

“Tuan.” Elbert immediately sympathized with Alrescha who was feeling the failure of a good brother. 

“For just the color he likes, trivial things like that, I was wrong.” 

“Then what is the reason you can misunderstand the color you like?” Elbert was curious about this.

“The reason why I sent her a pink dress? That's since I was 13. After my father's death, I often saw him staring at the pink roses in the back garden. After that I always send her pink stuff, and since she took it for granted, I think she really likes it. But it turns out I was wrong, Elbert!” Alrescha instantly closed her pair of eyes with her palm.

Alrescha really felt guilty about his actions, because he always sent them items that have pink, and it turns out the fact that his sister is the most hateful Altrelia pink.

Alrescha really felt frustrated himself when recalling for more than 6 years that, he kept giving things that color. 

If it was him, Alrescha had already thrown away all the items with the colors he hated the most back then as well.

But here what is the reason until 6 years that his sister always received the gift?

There was only one thought that Alrescha got, which was that even though Altrelia hated the color pink, but because it was the result of her giving, Altrelia was forced to accept it.

Altrelia was forced to accept all of that for 6 whole years.

“Elbert! Roughly how much hatred he has towards me?!” Alrescha Shouts.

“  Elbert was silent. He himself could not answer that question, as everyone basically had their own views.

“While the woman has the same characteristics as my sister Alstrlelia, she still cannot be compared to my real sister. That would never be Elbert!” Snap Alrescha to Elbert.

‘This is the first time I saw Mr very sad.’ Elbert himself also felt sad, because of the loss of Miss Altrelia who had the expression to continue to be silent, but not with her activities that have a scheduled routine for a walk out of the house by touring the mansion.

In contrast to Alrescha who had education in the Academy directly, Altrelia who did not have the ability like Alrescha, was given education in person at home.

“Alstrelia, she doesn't have a single friend. And I, as her brother, could not even understand her wishes. What kind of brother am I to unconsciously make my own sister have hatred for me?” Alrescha Racau.

Inside the slightly dim room, Elbert saw the pair of eyes of his young master that were being covered with that palm, actually hiding his deepest sorrow.

Until Elbert saw her young master, she was now actually crying in silence.

Is correct.

Alrescha Vion Beltmore Fisher, the young master of the notoriously cold duke Fisher, is now crying out for his own grief at not being able to understand his own sister during his life after being left behind by their father.

Two children who are still in their teens, who have a blood relationship as a family, have to go through their own misunderstandings without knowing the true meaning of intention.

Alrescha and Altrelia.

Elbert went to his young master who was still standing by the window in pain.

But at that very instant, as Elbert stared at the scene behind the window, he saw someone standing in the middle of the blue rose garden while staring at him.

A figure that neither Elbert nor Alrescha had seen before, it was Altrelia.

“Tuan.” Call Elbert.

“ Hearing Elbert call out to him, Alrescha instantly wiped away any remaining tears. But when he saw Elbert as if he was staring at something out there, Alrescha went to look at him.

“That woman.” tell Elbert to Alrescha.
