As soon as the Emperor's order was issued, some Healers instantly came without having to wait for long. They looked quite exhausted in the face of the internal injuries Aqua produced. Seeing that made the nobles afraid and subconsciously almost all of them moved away from Aqua. Only Ashlan and Ruby remained there.
This Elf prince looked coldly at his half-brothers brought by the Empire's healers. There is no guilt. There was only a strange feeling that made him not feel at home there for too long.
"They're still your family, aren't they? Why is your expression so flat?" ashlan Goda.
"family? To me my family is just Brother Rin and Aunt Amethyst" Aqua replied.
Ashlan only smiled softly at hearing that.
"Alright, alright... Forget about that."
This time, those fox-patterned purple eyes glanced at the Imperial Family area. It could be seen that the Emperor and the Empress remained calm in her chair without making any unnecessary fuss. That is natural, considering a ruler should not allow emotions to overwhelm him.
But what caught Ashlan and Aqua's attention was not that. But a girl who was several years younger than Aqua behind them.
Different from the other Imperial Families that mostly had blond hair, the girl was not at all similar to the Levana Imperial Family in general. The girl's hair was Lavender-colored which looked shiny under the rays of the party lights. His eyes are beautiful diamonds too. Different from the Emperor who had blond hair and sky blue eyes.
This is also one of the reasons that made the girl isolated. She was not similar to the Emperor but was also not similar to the previous Queen who was her mother. The previous Queen, Iris Lilac de Levana was a graceful woman with fresh green hair and sea blue eyes.
Many consider her to be the Queen's previous child with her affair. But due to the lack of evidence, it is only limited to gossip and guesswork.
But Aqua knows the truth.
"He was the son of the Emperor. It is precisely.he who has the most imperial blood if I am excluded. Dragon's Eye reacted more strongly to him than any other emperor's son."
Ashlan crossed her arms.
"People are stupid. Just because of the appearance, the girl was until needed so. Looks like they forgot how the first empress came to be."
"First empress? You mean the female master who married the Dragon Levana?" ask Aqua.
Ashlan replied without averted her eyes.
"Yes, that was a long time ago. It's only natural that people don't know. The first empress was very similar to the girl. The first empress had lavender hair and eyes. The first emperor had diamond eyes."
".... I just found out about that. Didn't... instead of me, the girl had more of their blood?"
"Not really. It can be seen from his normal eyes, if he doesn't inherit Levana's blood more than yours. No doubt he is a Levana. It was precisely the other blond-blonde imperial family that was mixed. Because the blond hair of the imperial family was obtained from marriage to the nobility."
"So that's it."
"......"
"......"
Neither Aqua nor Ashlan said anything. The two focused on looking at the First Princess, Ileana.
"..... The boy. You must be conscious, too, right?" ashlan said suddenly.
"I'm not stupid, Master. Of course."
Ashlan's lips lifted.
"Isn't the kid interesting?"
"Yes, I think so too."
ASHLAN POV'S
This linat! Even this kid was thinking the same thing as me.
Ileana Thea de Levana, First Princess of the Levana Empire.
Ever since he was a newborn, he had been abandoned by his family and lived in a remote palace with only 6 servants. The money the emperor gave to care for the girl was corrupted by his 5 servants. Only 1 servant was loyal to him because the servant's life was saved by the Queen first.
Even the servant was killed in front of his eyes when he was 3 years old because the servant tried to get the money corrupted to feed the princess. Underrated by the servant, tortured by the knight who was supposed to protect, neglected his family and the only person on his side was killed.
His fate is really poor.
He chose silence and did not become conspicuous in any case until no one noticed him. Though he was only a 14-year-old boy, but his mentality was not inferior to Aqua when I met him for the first time.
All that information I got from the magic tower spies that infiltrated the Palace.
But what is this!?
This girl is not that simple.
Aqua had indeed defeated him in all fields. But there was one thing that Aqua did not have but was in the girl.
"Ambisi," said Aqua suddenly.
Myself surprised. I thought he had just read my mind.
"Allowed master? This girl is full of ambition" he continued.
I can't believe we're thinking the same thing. Pfftt.... How far are you as similar as me, boy?
"True, Princess Ileana is a girl full of ambition. Much different from you who hate troublesome things but instead involved troublesome things, right?"
"Ha~ahh. I don't have any ambition for that kind of thing."
Hahahaha, look at him! The boy looked at me a little annoyed.
"It looks like he can hide it well. Because no one had been conscious all this time" Aqua said.
Again, this boy is right. The girl's diamond eyes were not the eyes of the timid girl who chose to run away and hide. It was an eye filled with determination and ambition to seize everything that should have been his choice.
Her surroundings had made that innocent girl become like this at her young age. That's why it's interesting!
I opened my mouth for a moment, it felt like it would be sad too if I didn't reply.
"Princess Ileana, she realized that her current self could do nothing. He quietly quietly without drawing attention so that the fangs he was sharpening could secretly shock everyone."
"I think there's something strange. I could tell he had the same intentions as the other princes and princesses. But why didn't he challenge me earlier," Aqua grinned.
"So he noticed. Take a good look at my every move and how far he can go if he's in that position."
Ho~ this kid knows that far.
"You're right, but you're not quite right yet."
"?"
This girl is much more interesting than that, boy.
"This princess counts everything."
"Counting everything?"
"Yes, he calculated everything carefully. All the possibilities that would happen if he took an action. He estimated at least 1000 different results and chose the highest probability of succeeding."
"Where does the master know that?"
It's only natural that Aqua isn't sure of my words.
"Look at his eyes, Aqua. Those eyes I've seen before. The eyes of a genius who thinks too far to go crazy are in the possession of a 14-year-old girl."
The way he looked around him was completely similar to that person. If left alone he could die young from thinking too much until his mind could not follow the response of his body. It is true to think before acting is good. But in this case, he would die easily because his body had no time to act.
"A 14-year-old child should not have such a strong mind. What he's going through is too heavy."
It seems Aqua also agrees with me. Although the boy did not deserve to think about this because his life was just as heavy. Did the imperial family train their children to mature early on?
Fuck up! Those kids should be acting like kids.
"What do you think we should do about that girl?" just ask a prank.
"Hmm, let me see if he deserves our help. What he will give an advantage and will not stab from behind, "he often.
I don't really expect a serious answer. Because their business is none of our business. That's why I didn't expect to hear such an answer from this boy.
"Hehh.. boy, you're becoming more and more like me you know?" reply with the same grin.
"That makes sense because I'm your student, Master."
All right, let's do something about the kid later. Looks like my students and I are thinking the same thing.
[The girl we can use ]
