A few days later, many letters came to Altair asking how he was doing. Honestly Altair only reply that he considers important, just as he is currently writing a reply letter to Daphine, his best friend.
" Aisha, please send this to Daphine" Altair said to her lady.
Actually he just freed from suspicion as the perpetrator of Altair poisoning, fortunately he was found not guilty.
" Well, Miss. "said Aisha who then received the letter and went to send it.
After his departure, Altair slightly stretched his stiffened body. As per his promise to Zico, he rested for almost 4 days from that night. Much has happened, Lecht has also returned to Chrysos two days ago, having asked Altair to come visit if he had time.
And lately, Rara and Duke Orzsbet have become calmer, too quiet if you ask Altair. He wasn't sure they had given up just like that just because of the threat like he did that night. Because a persistent tiger will not stop until it gets its prey.
Altair's daydreams collapsed when he heard the sound of knocking on his door, he turned his head and said. " Who?"
" Miss, the emperor wants to meet you" said someone behind the door.
Hearing that, Altair immediately stood up and opened the door. In front of him, there was currently a servant who came from the Emperor's palace.
" Well, I'll go. " replied Altair to the servant, and he followed her from behind.
He also walked out of Marigold Palace which for 4 days he should not leave, it feels very long since then. Altair was bored enough to just stay in his room without doing anything else.
Even though he tried to persuade Yin who he usually easily persuaded, it did not work anymore...
Altair's mood was good as he walked to meet the Emperor, but suddenly.. It gets worse when he runs into the person he doesn't like the most. Who else if not Rara.
" Haha..." Altair sighed tiredly with that, yet something Altair was already feeling annoyed.
" Well, whoa. Look who this is, Miss Altair. I heard what happened to you a few days ago, are you okay? " he asked sok cared.
Altair also had to show his best smile, "Thank you, I didn't think you were that cool. But I'm fine" replied Altair.
" It looks so. "sahut Rara also looks less happy. " You should be able to be more careful, so that you don't trouble everyone. If I were you, I could do better" he said with confidence.
" I see." said Altair smiling blankly.
Altair could see clearly his dislike of seeing him alright. But to be honest Altair didn't care, despite being annoyed.
" By the way... Princess Orzsbet, you must be careful not to meet people who are not good" Altair said suddenly.
" What?" Rara looked puzzled by the words she heard from Altair.
While Altair still maintained his composure, "Yes, for example the arrogant. Don't make friends with people like that "he said.
" ha's. You mean like yourself?" sahut Rara, clearly inverted.
Altair laughed lightly, "Haha.. No, I'm not like that. You should know what their traits look like very well. The arrogant man is marked by their condescending eyes and self-exalting speech, " said Altair, smiling sinlessly.
" Do you think you can survive after insulting a noble like that? " he said with a stern look.
" I don't think so. But... " Altair hung his words, he bent his body slightly towards Rara and looked at her cynically. " .. I'm sure the crown prince wouldn't like a woman who almost killed her best friend " whispered Altair with a surprising grin.
Even Rara herself did not think Altair could put on such an expression, and the reality she had just seen made her even more shocked. Not to mention what Altair just said, he knew that he was the mastermind behind the poisoning case.
Altair who saw the look of Rara's pale face just chuckled, then he pulled himself back from the presence of Rara.
" Daughter, I have no grudge against you. But you've always bothered me for no reason, to be honest, it's annoying. I'd rather live a quiet life and it looks like you've heard... If I'm gonna leave the palace soon. What else are you worried about?? Nothing's stopping you, is it?" altair said with an arm on his chest, and the words suddenly changed.
" Do you think that just getting out of here can bring everything back??" it seems that Rara is not at all satisfied with the fact that the person she hates is leaving soon.
Altair could only sigh because of that, "So what do you want?" tanyanya.
" I challenge you to a fight! And the loser has to do whatever the winner wants!" rara said later.
" Huh, she definitely won't accept that." her inner self is also with complete confidence.
While Altair, he was silent for a moment after hearing that. He raised his hand to cover his mouth, but then...
" Good god, my God. Are you sure? " Altair questioned that with a contorted look of surprise.
" What..?" making Rara who saw it confused her.
But Altair just shrugged his shoulders lightly, "Well, if that's what you want I have no reason to refuse." he said.
" T-of course. "said Rara anyway while trying to hide her surprise, "Huh. You fool, you won't be able to beat me. Even if I lose, I will take advantage of the rules by which ordinary people cannot injure nobles. Even if he was within the Emperor's protection, he still could not escape the law.
But Altair had not finished talking, "Then we are competing in the Colosseum in 2 days, how?" his proposal to the duke's princess who was unable to think clearly because of the belief that he would win.
" Yes, of course" he answered easily without thinking about the risks.
On the other hand Altair, hearing the approval of Rara. He secretly singled out another grin, "Hmph. The Colosseum is a free arena, imperial laws will be useless there. So, even if you plan to use a law where ordinary people cannot harm nobles, it is useless. The power is also clearly below me, you've lost from the beginning... Daughter. "inner Altair.
Altair was one step ahead in deciding the end of that game, he had already considered everything from all sides. Altair had absolutely no intention to give any advantage to Rara.
" Then, see you at the Colosseum in 2 days, Princess Orzabet" Altair told Rara.
" Hmphc. Just make sure you don't run, I'll show you... Why are we nobles so powerful. "but as usual, Rara did not want to lower her pride and just left after saying those arrogant words.
" Look, I'll make you kiss my feet. "
But Altair didn't bother about it, "I'm really looking forward to it" he said with a grin on his face.
" We'll see who gets on his knees."
