Princess Altrelia
44: Alstrelia
In the horse-drawn carriage.
Alrescha just kept coming into his mind.
While staring at the invitation he received from Chavire, his mind continued to drift to Altrelia.
‘While he is just a surrogate, still he should be in protection.’ thought Alrescha. He expects you what happened earlier, not to be the beginning of another disaster, be it about his real sister or his surrogate sister.
CLOTAK….CLOTAK…...CLOTAK……..
Alrescha glanced to the side to see the view outside the window.
There were two buildings destroyed, and the rest that stood around the building was burned to the ground and left only the walls that had blackened.
“...............................” Alrescha just kept silent while looking at the citizens and knights, was cleaning up the remnants of the existing debris.
“This stack is right there.” the knight orders one of the civilians, who helps with the cleaning process.
“Iya.”
“You guys, if you're tired take a break first. Don't push yourself too much.” a knight who became the command over the course of gotong royong's activities.
“Good sir!” answer them simultaneously.
Then when they saw the horse carriage coming, they all immediately gave him a way.
“...............................” Alerscha who felt that she would get the gazes of everyone, instantly closed the curtain.
His departure only ended in silence.
______________________________
“Hey, are you sure about last night?” one of the knights standing at the front gate asked his friend who was both standing and standing guard over there.
“Yes. Mr. Elbert himself said in the capital there was a major incident. Although they said the explosion was due to a firework stored inside one of the storage warehouses, they still attributed it to the terror carried out by the group.” obviously this blue uniformed knight to his partner.
News overnight was immediately circulated quickly thanks to servants or merchants who came to the Fisher residence to send stock of various needs for everyone in the Fisher residence.
Therefore, the news of birds is always circulating without knowing what the truth is like.
“You said the group? Cin-”
Having not had time to utter the next sentence, this knight instantly felt the presence of someone who was walking towards them.
TAPS…..TAPS…..TAP……
A woman with a pair of slender legs was walking quite leisurely. But what the two of them saw after realizing the existence of the woman they both knew, turned out to be holding someone in both hands.
“Nona?!” surprised this knight when he found out that the face really belonged to their mistress, Altrelia.
The two of them immediately ran over to Altrelia.
“Sini, let me carry it.” one of them immediately snatched Lena from the hands of Altrelia.
“You're okay, right? Is anyone hurt?” when his friend had brought Lena in for treatment because of a wound to his head, the knight immediately interrogated Altrelia with a general but urgent question.
“It's okay, but lena had a bump on her head.” replied Altrelia briefly.
“You sure? Although you said it's okay you should be checked immediately by a doctor.” said this knight.
‘His face really worries me?’ Alstrelia who was asked by a knight with a worried face, Altrelia actually returned with a full-fledged glance. But Altrelia immediately lost her expression earlier while replying, “If you don't believe me, just call the doctor and bring it to me.”
The words spoken by Altrelia suddenly made the knight slightly stunned, as if this Miss Altrelia gave him orders to bring the doctor who had done suspicious things to miss alstrelia, and would interrogate him.
But this knight kept the order. “Then I will call now.”
“Hm...” Altrelia simply gave him a yes nod, and then saw the knight's departure from before her. “They are ak-” like before, Alstreila lost her words when she heard the sound of a horse carriage coming towards her.
CLOTAK….CLOTAK…….CLOTAK……
The horse carriage carried by the four horses, continued to accelerate until it finally stopped right in front of him.
NGIKS….
BERRIES…..
Alstrelia was only fixated on the four horses that had to give up their bodies to be tied up with the carriage that the four of them were carrying.
CLAMPS!
“.....................” All of Altrelia's attention was distracted by the sound of the door opening, and immediately raised someone.
“What happened to you?” ask this black-haired man to Altrelia. Who else if not Alrescha.
Alrescha noticed the appearance of Altrelia whose clothes were stained enough because of the ground.
Alrescha increasingly scrunched his eyes when his pair of eyes also saw a red stain that was nothing but fresh red blood, right on the display arm of his white uniform.
“Are you hurt?”
Alstrelia immediately turned and turned her back to Alrescha while saying : “This is not my blood, but the servant's blood. Just save your worry for him, don't make him jealous because it worries me.”
TAPS….TAPS…….TAP……
Alstrelai left Alrescha at the gate.
‘Still worrying about others? What is really in the man's mind? He thinks I'm a hurt man?’ thought Alstrelia while walking away to her temporary residence.
“ Alrescha, he immediately knew what Altrelia's words meant. ‘I did realize, I was wrong to worry about someone. It's not my sister I'm worried about, I'm worried about her. But still, as long as she is here, then I must show my sincerity towards sister, even if she is only a surrogate sister.’
