Princess Seraphina
CHAPTRE 36

When he finished executing many of the guards, Safy moved into the cafe. He stood leaning against the wall, his position at the very end of the back. While still observing the target, Safy felt his palm feel cold. The fall from the cold is not water, and sure enough. The coldness filling his hand was a trace of blood as he acted earlier.  Calmly, Safy summoned back the magical bees he had used before with the help of magic paper. He ordered the bee to clean the blood that was still attached to his glove. With the bee perched on his palm, the bee gently sucked every drop of blood.

A few minutes later, Safy's gloves were completely dry. Then, the magical bee returned into the magic paper. Safy remains vigilant, monitoring everyone inside the cafe, especially Jacob.

Jacob had no idea that his bodyguards outside were no longer there. Only one bodyguard who served as a driver survived. Guards inside the cafe remained on guard, moving around and patrolling upstairs. They are unaware of the existence of Safy who is always watching their every move, as well as Ariel who is monitoring from a distance through a candle that is lit.

Thirty minutes later, Seraphina arrived at the cafe. One of the servants told her that someone had reserved a place for her, so Seraphina was escorted to the prepared table. There, Jacob waited with four bodyguards dressed in black suits. One of the bodyguards helped prepare a chair for Seraphina, then invited her to sit down.

When Seraphina sat down, Jacob rested his hands on the table. "How are you today, Phina?"

"Alright," Seraphina replied with a somewhat irritated expression.

"There's no need to frown on me, a covenant is a covenant. But to make you feel good, I have a little present for you."

Jacob took something out of his pocket and placed it on the table. It was a heart-shaped box covered in gold and jewels. When the box was opened, it saw a pure gold ring with a crystal diamond decoration. The name 'Seraphina' was engraved inside the ring in a straight-tongued writing style. Jacob also added a check sheet worth two hundred billion and a luxury car.

"All this is just for you" Jacob said in an attentive voice. "There is nothing else I would give such a precious gift. Your face is like an angel, your hair and skin are perfect. Will you accept this gift of mine? Be my wife, and your wealth will be infinite."

Seraphina did not respond to Jacob's words, she preferred to remain silent and avert her gaze. Jacob continued to give praise and spoke at length about his wealth, which further added to his annoyance.

From there Safy began to grow angry listening to all the praise expressed by Jacob in front of Seraphina, arrogance of wealth also sweetened his words. Safy remained in his position even though both hands were ready to hold the dagger. After a long conversation, Jacob finally asked, "So, how did you respond, Phina?"

"No!" Seraphina answered firmly. "Your wealth may be great, but I still refuse to be your wife. Our deal is done."

When Seraphina tried to stand up, one of the bodyguards restrained her and forced her to sit back. Jacob took his tablet and showed it to him, "Are you sure you want to refuse? Go ahead, as long as you are willing to accept the consequences. All your associates will be imprisoned, but you will still be my wife according to the agreement we have signed." Jacob shows the official letter of the agreement, with Seraphina's signature on her seal.

Seraphina's gaze turned furious. He never, though, signed anything except when making cards at headquarters. With a furious rage, he was about to snatch the paper, but the previous bodyguard clasped his hand firmly.

Suddenly...

"Plac!"

Jacob slapped Seraphina's cheek hard enough that her cheek turned red. "Based on the ungrateful wife! I've given you this fancy gift, but now I'm in opposition to your future husband! Like it or not, like it or not, you'll be mine!"

(This is the first time Seraphina is directly faced with fellow humans, before she was always directly faced with ferocious monsters. However, even though his strength was so great and extraordinary, even though he had never injured anyone else.)

Safy has confirmed that Seraphina was injured by the slap. He already had plans for an execution, but the voices of the stars forbade him from doing so now. This is not the right time. Therefore, Safy still tried to maintain patience and hold back his anger.

Jacob called Seraphina again, but Seraphina refused to turn her head. In an emotional state, Jacob was very upset at being insulted. He stretched out his hand to slap her once more.

And...

"Strash!"

The front glass door of the cafe broke because it was kicked so hard. Aldi had arrived, and upon seeing Seraphina slapped, he got angry and went inside the cafe. Accompanied by his security guard, Aldi immediately secured Jacob. His guards did not fight, while Aldi approached Jacob and hit him hard until he fell out of the chair.

"It's not over yet" said Jacob, "You can't just catch me."

Afterwards, Jacob was told that the bodyguards outside could not be reached. Thus, he ordered his guards to proceed with the second plan.

When the officer who was with Aldi tried to secure them all, the guards suddenly attacked. Seraphina is kidnapped by Jacob along with his bodyguard who has special skills. Safy continued to follow them silently.

After they were in the car, the special bodyguard sprayed poisonous fumes which made Seraphina immediately lose consciousness. The stars with him asked Safy to help him in the middle of the road, with the order that Safy keep moving following the car away.

They finally arrived at the deserted highway, surrounded by trees which made the atmosphere even more silent. From inside the car, the stars inform Safy that Jacob will take Seraphina to a secret house in the woods. They shouted using magical language that allowed Safy to hear him, "Save the Princess! Save the Princess!"

After hearing the relief code, Safy took out his magical bees from the paper. Then, the bee's antennae send a signal to Ariel to help immediately. Ariel appeared instantly beside Safy.

“Is it time to act?“

Safy replied, “Iya, do it now.“

“Good, I will gladly do.“

Ariel sends gravity magic to the car Jacob was driving with his bodyguards, pressing the car so that it weighs almost like a ton. The engine worked too hard, the wheels of the car erupted, and finally the engine died. Six bodyguards tried to check the damage to the car, but when they saw Ariel coming from the end of the road with a fire burning her way, they knew that something terrible was going to happen.
