Arlen had just finished taking a shower, he was sitting on the sofa enjoying tea. After eating together in the magic tower, he went around for a while. Because he had not been in the capital of Argenius for a long time, he also missed the atmosphere of the city.
"Why does it feel so shitty?" Mumbled.
Arlen recalled the time he was traveling around the city with Aisley, it felt like while traveling around the time was so short. While when he himself time feels long, but fun.
*Tok Tok Tok Tok
The sound of knocking on the door rang out from inside the room, Arlen looked at the door of his room.
"Come in." His order.
The one who knocked on the door opened the door, it turned out to be a soldier he did not recognize. The man walked towards Arlen, he paid his respects to him.
"Sorry to interrupt when the 3rd prince, Her Majesty the Queen calls you." Say it with respect.
"Hmm, out. I'll be there soon." He answered without seeing the soldier.
The soldier saluted Arlen before he came out of the room. Arlen sighed harshly, he was extremely dislikeful of the 'Queen'.
"Basic! Just interrupt my time!" Umpatnya.
Arlen wore the usual clothes he wore, after he finished coming out of the room through the balcony. It was common, for he rarely went in and out of the door. If it's through the door he'll have to turn around to get out and go to the Queen's room.
*Tok Tok Tok Tok
"This is me, Flawmish?" Ask Arlen.
"Come in." The Queen answered from within.
Arlen opened the door, he saw 'Queen' was sitting on the sofa while enjoying his tea. Arlen entered, he was without being asked to directly sit in front of the Queen.
"Why are you calling me?" Ask Arlen.
"Sit down and drink." The queen sipped her tea.
Arlen did not budge, he remained silent as he looked at the Queen. Knowing that Arlen was disobeying his words, the Queen placed her teacup on the table.
"Third prince, you know? Your second brother when he was your age, he already had!" Arlen cuts off the Queen's speech.
"Just get to the point, you don't have to talk too much." Cut Arlen.
"This kid!" Umbat Queen.
"All right." The queen smiled bitterly.
"Prince Flawmish, you've grown up, it's time you had a fiancee." Queen Resume.
"I've guessed, this old lady will definitely talk about fiancee!" Arlen said from the heart.
"I haven't thought of a life partner, after all I'm only 17." Arlen said coldly.
Arlen clearly showed his dislike, but the Queen remained calm. He was already used to Arlen's dislike.
"The first prince had a fiancee when he was 5 years old, then the second prince got engaged when he was 7 years old. They are still small already have fiancees, should the third prince as well right?" Asked the Queen with a sickening smile in the eyes.
"That's them, not me. After all I was from the beginning indeed different from the two of them." Reply Arlen calmly.
"Hmph! It turns out he still knows himself!" The queen smiled in her heart.
*But, whatever it takes... Prince Flawmish is still 'Third Prince of the kingdom of Argenius' That fact cannot be changed." The queen looked at the careless Arlen.
"I told you, I'm different from them. I prefer freedom! Who my life partner is, you don't have to set me up! After all, Almarhumah Mother has advised you, right, if I have the right to choose a life partner as I want?" Ask Arlen coldly.
"Damn! Again, bring it up!!!" Grumpy Queen.
"I know it, but... There are many rumors that Prince Flawmish will never marry. There's even a rumor that says if princes like same-sex." Obviously Queen.
"It's just a rumor, a wise Queen wouldn't believe it. My defamed name is not the Queen." The answer is still in a cold tone.
"But I'm worried about you... It will also affect the royal family's good name."
"Prince Flawmish, do you still like your former first brother's fiancee? What if I arranged for you to be with him?" Ask Queen.
"No, I never liked that Lady. I still have business, I go first." Arlen.
Arlen stepped up and walked away. She was mediocre with the Queen who kept asking her to get engaged. Moreover, the Queen brought up her former fiancee first brother, it was the thing she hated the most.
*****
Before breakfast, Arlen had already come to the Magic Tower. So he had breakfast with Aisley and Avram. Unlike yesterday which there was a small debate, now they eat in silence.
"This morning, where are you taking her?" Ask Avram.
"Not anywhere!" Replied Arlen while turning his face away.
Arlen and Avram were standing in the hallway of the magic tower, waiting for Aisley who was changing her clothes.
"I suspect you." Avram looked at Arlen.
"Suspected what!? I won't kidnap her, I'll give her back anyway." Arlen looked at Avram with a sigh.
"If Niko were here, she would definitely not let you take Aisley away." Avram laughing.
"Now he doesn't exist! I've also asked your permission." Arlen breathed out violently.
"Hahaha yes-yes, take good care of her not to get hurt." Avram patted Arlen on the shoulder.
"Of course I'll take care of him!" Legally.
"Wait on! That tiger phrase!?". Thought Arlen.
"If I get hurt I can't be sure, because we're going to practice swords!" Arlen.
"Yes-iya 'Practice the sword' hihihi." Avram laughed strangely.
"Sorry to keep you waiting for a long time." Aisley chirps from behind.
Avram and Arlen turn around, they see Aisley wearing a dress that is not too long and wearing an eye mask. Avram smiled looking at Aisley, the clothes she chose were fitting on Aisley's body.
"It's okay, let's go first." Arlen.
"Hmm, I'll see you." Reply Avram.
Arlen and Aisley leave by using teleportation to get out of the magic tower. Outside of arranging magic, Aisley sat in the horse carriage that Arlen had prepared.
"Mmm, we'll go to the nearest village. Then we'll run around the village to warm up, and we'll practice swordplay at Uncle Aarick's." Avram.
"okay." Aisley nodded in understanding.
"Are you carrying a training suit?"
"Of course take it, you said we'd also practice the sword." Arlen nodded at Aisley's reply.
Aisley looked out, the horse carriage they were riding in had come out of the capital. The streets outside that were still many trees made Aisley become calm. Slowly Aisley began to feel drowsiness, the wind blowing through the window made him want to close his eyes.
Arlen was silent, he looked out. It was not usual for him to ride a horse-drawn carriage to travel, as he had legs to run or jump from tree to tree. As Arlen glanced at Aisley, he would fall down from falling asleep.
"Hey!" Arlen held onto both of Aisley's shoulders.
"Ckckck, this kid's asleep." Arlen shook his head slowly.
Not wanting Aisley to fall, Arlen moves in next to Aisley. He leaned Aisley's head against his shoulder.
"As long as I live, you're the only one leaning on my beautiful shoulder. So be honored!" Arlen Guman.
