In the palace library, already a few weeks ago he started the class taught by Yin and Mira, sometimes they also fight over it when starting the class. Sometimes every day he became busy with this class and that, not infrequently also the Emperor called him just to accompany tea and chat. Altair so really felt like a busy Princess.

But this time he had some spare time, he was still interested in the book about the Dragon Monarch. Altair wondered if there was a book of that kind that he could find in the library, so he had been looking for it since then.

" Haha... Where the hell. Is there no book like this anymore?? " murm Altair.

Altair was tired of looking for him. When his attention is turned to Zico, he seems very curious about the ball of yarn. Altair laughed at seeing her like that, instead she became curious... Is Zico really a Dragon or a Cat??

" Ah, Zico wait! Don't go away from me! " call Altair when you see Zico who goes away from him while chasing the ball of thread rolling on the floor.

Altair immediately stood up and went to investigate. Zico stopped when he managed to get the ball of yarn, and then Altair immediately lifted it and put Zico in his arms.

" Geez, Zico. Don't wander around like that here. What if I lose you later?? " say Altair.

Kyu...

" I know, I know. But it won't be funny if you're really lost, especially until caught by a bad person later" Altair said again.

Zico seems tired of Altair's friendliness about him that might be missing, he is instead attracted to a secret symbol that exudes an aura that he is familiar with. Zico attempted to reach the symbol, but Altair stood too far away from him.

And what Zico did caught Altair's attention..

" What's up, Zico?? You found what?? " ask Altair.

Zico pointed at the secret symbol, making Altair narrow his eyes to see more clearly. It's a symbol of a tree that looks shady and large, because if seen more clearly.

" You want this?? " ask Altair who then presses the symbol which is apparently a button. " huh?! What's the matter?? " althair said as he was suddenly surrounded by a magic circle.

The magic circle shone so brightly that Altair could not see anything, and when he opened his eyes again. Or rather a forest he did not know.

" Whoa... Zico, do you know where this beautiful forest belongs?? " ask Altair who was amazed by what she saw.

Kyu...

But Zico jumped down from Altair's hand, turned to Altair and nodded his head. Like him he wanted to show the way, seen from him who immediately walked as if he knew where they were now.

Seeing that, Altair just tilted his head, then followed him deeper into the forest. So many things that Altair had never seen, there were even some fairies flying around freely. Altair perceived that the place was very familiar, until then they came to the front of a tree.

The large willow tree that soared high in the sky and shone so blindingly, also the tree trunk and its leaves that had a golden color that could not. The tree swayed when it was buffeted by the wind, rustling as if calling out to him.

Altair walked closer to the stunning tree, he reached out his hand. And when his hand touched the tree, Altair saw the silhouette of a woman crying under the tree. His voice was not heard, but it seemed very heartbreaking.

" Altair's. "

" A!.. "

Altair heaved a sigh of relief as he was not an intruder, "Is there anything I can help you with, Prince?? " ask Altair who immediately regained her composure and smiled gently.

Prince Theodore seemed somewhat hesitant to speak his mind, until he later said. " no.... It's just that, before her you kept staring at the wall and didn't blink at all. What the hell happened to you?? " ask Theodore.

" Huh?? Ah, hahaha... That's.. I think I was hallucinating... Perhaps. " said Altair with a clumsy smile.

" But it's weird, said Theodore, who suddenly brought his face closer to Altair's surprise, "So I saw the color of your eyes was green... Is it just my feeling?? " his word anyway.

" I-Yes, maybe it's just your feeling haha." replied Altair. Meanwhile, his heart... " Wine!! The prince didn't see, did he?? He's not suspicious, is he?? Why didn't you tell me that the Prince was coming, Brother Lumine!! " her inner words.

[You're the one who says you don't have to report trivial things.]

" Why do you sound so funny?!! "

[It's just your feeling.]

" Oahh!! "

While Altair was arguing with Lumine inwardly, she was still nervous because Theodore had yet to stop looking at her. On the other hand he also still could not forget the shadow that he saw, and who the silhouette of the woman he saw was.

While Zico who is now on the table even with the rest of his sleep without doing anything to help him. Theodore himself noticed also because he was suspicious, but then his attention was diverted to a book that Altair hugged earlier.

" Altair, what book is that?? "

" Books?? Huh uh?! Since when do I hold a book?! " chanted Altair so surprised.

Theodore became confused because Altair himself was surprised by it, it was not supposed that Altair should not be surprised because he himself held the book. But what's interesting.... It was because the book held by Altair had a writing from a language he had never seen before.

" Can you read this book?? " ask Theodore anyway.

" Hm?? Yeah, that. The title of the book is Tearsnano, wait.... Don't tell me that you can't read it either. " said Altair.

" That's not the language taught in the Empire, I even doubt that there are any places that use this language. This is an ancient language that has never been learned before. "

" Why then can I read it, is it possible that I am an alien from another world?? "

Altair said that because she felt strange to herself, because she could do something that no one else could. Especially until he could read those books, and talk to animals. As for Theodore, seeing the confused Altair himself looked quite funny.

" Then what if you read it to me as well?? I became curious about the contents of the book as well ", Theodore said with a bright smile.

Altair covered half of his face, which was blushing because Theodore was with a book, and then he answered. " Hm... It is possible, if you do not mind. "he said a little slowly and turned his eyes away.

" Good, then let's sit down and tell me the contents. "take Theodore who immediately pulled Altair to a table that was there. They sat there, as Altair prepared to read the book in his hand.
