Princess In Another World: New Story
47
The days of the party are over, and today. 1 day after the party is over.
Special headquarters.
“Haaaa, tiring.” Since that party I have been sleep deprived and now I am very tired.
“Ari, I've got all the required information.” (Lucy)
“Thank you, I'll leave this to the king soon. Then, after that I can rest in peace and quiet.”
“Your busy days are not over, lo. You must not forget what day it is today, right.”
“So, my mind is deadlocked right now due to lack of sleep. I can't think well.”
“So, if such quickly finish it and immediately go to sleep. Yeah, but I'm not sure he'll let you sleep.” After saying that Lucy left.
“Haaaa, I'm alone here.” There's no one here and it's very quiet, a place like this really fits me.
A few minutes later.
“Alright, time to go to palace.” My goal was to meet the king and give up and explain everything about what really happened during my wedding.
Long enough after that.
The king's office.
“That's how it actually happened.” I've explained everything that actually happened during the wedding to her, the rest just depends on her decision.
“I didn't expect they would do this kind of thing. But, what do you say is true?”
“Yes, I'm telling you the truth. There's no reason for me to lie, let alone my father-in-law. Correct’.”
“I'll think about it.”
“Alright, besides that before I also said that if you want to make this kingdom far more advanced than now, greedy leaders like them are not needed.”
“Do you have proof?”
“If father asks for proof, I can't give it. But, if the king wants proof of that.”.
“What do you mean?”
“I can't let a father take care of something like this, but if you act as a king then I'm ready to give it. To me, you are an honorable person and one that I respect. Therefore, if you only act like that because I am your son-in-law, I will reject it, but if you think of me as the one who accidentally gave me an information, then I will give it.”
“So. Then, as a king, I want you to give me that information.”
“Good, soon I will prepare.”
A few minutes after that.
“Cannot.” (King)
“That's all the paperwork I got and it's already proven that people like them don't deserve to be in that position. I hope that you as the king can take strong action against them. They, many people who are hungry and also difficult, not only is it the result of their actions, there are also many people who have to stop working. I've done various ways to overcome it, but if the source of the problem is not overcome then everything I do will only be in vain. Everything will be back to how it was, when this kingdom is in trouble.”
“Alright, let me take care of this.”
“If it is like that, I am permission to go.”
“Wait a minute Ari.”
“Eh? Y-ya?”
“About the honeymoon you two.”
“Honey month?” When the king said that, I remembered it, and also I understood what Lucy had said earlier. “Haaaa, true too. Such a thing also exists, yes.”
“Do you have a plan? If not, your in-laws can suggest a great location for..”.
“Thanks for the offer, but we have chosen it from far away.”
“So, if it's like how else. Enjoy your holiday.”
“Ya.”
Outdoors.
“Ari, why are you from dad's room? Are you guys talking about something?” (Lion)
I met Iona right out of this room. “Ya, only small talk.”
“Ari, I want to talk about something.”
“Something? About what?”
“That's something we've discussed before. Do you remember?”
“Huh? What's something?”
“That's lo, which we talked about earlier in the sky palace.”
“Is there anything we've ever talked about?”
“Do not make me angry, do you forget it. Why are you smiling, I am angry, lo.”.
“Yes yes, I know. Sorry, I remember. After we tell the others and prepare the preparations, we can go directly to.”
“I have told others, and I have also done the preparation. The things I needed I brought with me. We can leave now. Aww...”
I clenched his forehead. “Haaaa, because you've prepared everything how else.”
Daytime.
In an inn in the kingdom that is near a beautiful beach called Seronia.
“Wah, from here the view of the beach looks very beautiful.” Iona looks out the window, and is immediately greeted by a stunning beachfront.
“I'm happy if you like it.”
“Ari, how do you know about this place?”
“Ahhh, I-I was walking around a bit and stopped here to eat, because the place was good I thought I could bring you here. But, because there was always a problem I never had time to say. Fortunately now I can bring you here.”
“Thanks.”
“Then I will sleep first. I'm so tired now.” I lay in this soft and comfortable mattress. “Haaaa, good sleep.”
“Wait, how about the streets?”
“Streeting, yes.” Right now I'm very, very tired, apart from the lack of rest due to the party today I also use teleportation and obviously it makes me very tired now. “Iona, come here for a minute.”
“What's up?”
“Already, here.” Iona approached me, and after that.
“A-what are you..”
I pulled him to sleep on this bed. “Are you not tired?”
“No.”
“So, though so pay attention to your body condition. Don't force yourself.”
“I don't push myself, I just want to take a walk.”
“We still have time to do that, now I'm very tired. At least let me rest for a while, 1 hour is enough.” I slowly started to close my eyes. “Iona, good sleep.”
Afternoon.
I slowly started to open my eyes. “Haaa, she's asleep too.” Iona fell asleep next to me.
Belly sounds. “I forgot not to eat since morning.”
Long enough after that.
“Iona you're awake, yes.”
“A-ri..”
“I've prepared food for you, if you're hungry you can eat directly.”
“Thanks. Where are you going? I want to come with.”
“Hmmm, just eat first. You’kan haven't eaten since morning. I'll wait for you.”
“Good.”
“Yes, this is delicious. Where did you buy it?”
“Tadi walked, because it looks good so I bought it.”
“You want to try?”
“I've, eat only.”
“Here, try one bite only, yes.”
“No need, you just eat.”
“Once, yes.”
“Haaaa, good good. I'll try it.”
“True, then. I'll bribe you. Open your mouth, aaaaa? Does it taste good?”
“Yes, at least this is not bad.”
“True’.”
Long enough after that.
We went around in the afternoon.
“This place is very convenient, the inhabitants are also very friendly.”
“They welcome newcomers or people who are on vacation here warmly, besides this kingdom is also known as a job for people who want a vacation. I heard that the facilities here are quite complete, ranging from entertainment, romantic dining and also some other things. Everything is here, but every place is different. Then, the most famous is the hot spring of youth.”
“Advantage hot spring bath?”
“Yes, as said. The bath can make people who enter become ageless, even though I know it is just a thing that is used to make people attract to try it. I'm sure that there's no efficacy whatsoever in..”.
“Ari, I want to try it. That eternal bath, I want to try it.”
“I just explained, lo. It's just a regular hot spring”
“But I want to try it.”
“Haaaa, fine. Later tonight we go there.”
“Assyik.”
Her night.
Private baths in the inn.
“Byhid I want to try it.”
Right now I'm soaking and Iona's still cleaning her body. “How else, the place is full. I also didn't know that it would be that crowded, if you wanted maybe tomorrow we could rent that place.”
“Really?”
“If you really want to try, no problem. For today just enjoy this bath.”
“Thank you, but all I really want is to spend time with you. Time like this is precious to me.”
“Once, it seems like I also have to make a hot spring bath in the palace again.”
“If it's already there’kok.”
“Eh, really? But I never saw him.”
“If it is, the place is underground.”
“Underground, what the bath was.”
“The place is also very comfortable, I have tried it. The place is big and clean, I like it. Sometimes we soak there, yes.”
“Iya yes. After all, the sky palace is already arguably our home, no need to wait for sometime. When we want we can do it.”
“Hehe, true also.”
Long enough after that.
“Haaaa, seems to be enough.”
“You're done?”
“Yes, if it takes too long I will get dizzy. Besides we haven't had dinner.”
“True also.”
“If you are still not finished just continue, I will go to buy food.”
“Well, I'll stay here.”
Nothing happened tonight. After dinner I fell asleep and so did Iona.
Tomorrow.
Morning time.
I opened my eyes and saw the sun rise. “Ari, you're awake. I've prepared breakfast for you, before the streets later I want you to eat first.”
“Iya yes.” When I want to wake up.
“A-ari, what are you doing?!” I held onto Iona and immediately jumped out the window. And right after that, the inn we occupied was destroyed. “A-what really happened?”
“Cih, I didn't expect them to get here first.”
The people who saw the incident immediately swarmed here.
“Iona, when you walked out did you see anyone else in this inn?”
“No, everyone in this inn has gone all out, after all there are only 3 people staying here including us.”
“So, thank goodness.” There were no casualties this time. “Sorry about the clothes you brought.”
“T-it's okay. Ari, what really happened?”
“Talking here is not a good thing, we find a quiet place first.”
“Y-ya.”
On the beach.
“This place is quite quiet, now tell me, what really happened?”
While walking around, I explained what had really happened. “Attacks of demons.”
“The demons? They've reached here?”
“Not yet, but the attack just now was very far away and also very strong. But, because it is fixated by a long distance so the impact is only like that, if stronger and more likely to explode before getting here.”
“The attack can get this far.. I-it.” Iona's body trembled, and she looked terrified.
“It looks like we've wasted too much time, sorry Iona but there doesn't seem to be time to continue this anymore. We should go back soon and start the plan.”
“I understand.”
Despite saying so, but the look on his face said something else. I don't want to see it that way. “Haaaa, it seems like for overnight it's okay.”
“Huh?”
“Didn't you want to try that hot spring, if go before try it I think you won't be happy so before going how about we try it.”
“Good.”
He still looks very disappointed. “We will be back tomorrow morning, so today we can enjoy today to the fullest before returning tomorrow.”
“Ya.”
“Haaaa.” His face still did not change, this made me very confused. I kissed her. “Sorry to make the very thing you crave end this soon.”
“It's okay. You are not wrong.” Even so, he looks so sad.
I hugged her. “Sorry, I'm sorry for ruining what you crave.” She cried.
“I've been deadlocked today, but why should this end so soon. Hixes. I was looking forward to it, enjoying the afternoon sun together, having a romantic dinner, having fun together, and doing other fun things. I was looking forward to it, but it's all over so soon.”
I can't see her crying like this, but right now I don't know what to do. The strength of the enemy is still unknown, although I'm advancing there will likely be additional attacks again and it will only make things messy or worse this place will be destroyed. ‘Sorry, for making you cry.’
