At night, after Altair had spoken many things with Yin, now Altair was looking at him who was still in the form that Yin addressed him. He really did not expect that his true form would be as beautiful as it is today. Shining golden hair, mysterious golden green eyes, white skin that emitted light. It was perfect like an angel.
" Whaa.. Is this really me?? " inner Altair wonders.
Then his attention was diverted to a mark that suddenly appeared on his forehead, if he noticed the mark was similar to a red spider lily.
" Mister Yin said that this sign is proof of my identity, as well as proof of my strength. "the inner Altair again.
Altair had to wonder how much power he had, until Yin said such a thing to him. And then.. There was actually something that made him nervous at the moment. It had been since he heard where he was now.
Altair was currently in the Imperial palace. Right, the palace of the Foldes Empire, the place where the emperor and his family were located. Altair was really very surprised when he found out about it, not to mention Yin who said that he would bring Altair to meet the Emperor.
" Haha... A lot of things happened, in that short time I also had to find myself. Who am I really?? Where are my parents?? I have no place to lean anymore, Grandpa and Grandma are gone, as are Uncle Geas and Aunt Niell. If it was so good that I went where, there is no place I can call home that I know. " muttered Altair anyway.
Altair was lost in thought, he had not even had time to mourn for the people who had raised him in the village, as well as his friends. In an instant he lost everything.
No tears fell from his eyes, if only he could repeat time with the strength he already knew, Altair would be able to save everyone in the village.
" A, right too. Letter from grandfather " said Altair.
He wiped the tears that fell on his cheek, and stood up to a table in front of the window. Altair pulled a drawer in the top row, Yin said all the items Altair was carrying at the time were stored there.
Altair then took the two letters given by his grandfather, he sat in the front seat of the table and opened the letter. The first letter he opened was a letter from his grandfather...
[For my dear grandson, Altair.
...I am not very good at stringing words in writing letters, but I would like to prepare this letter if only an unexpected situation occurred. It doesn't feel like years have passed so quickly, ever since we met your real mother....
...You'd be surprised to hear this, but the truth is like that. But don't hate him. She's the saddest woman we've ever seen, she was forced to leave you....
...Back then, he came to see us at night with a body full of wounds while carrying you who was still very small in his arms, he asked us to raise you with tears that glowed. He loves you so much. Although I do not know the real situation faced by him, but his affection for you is sincere....
...Before leaving, your mother left some stuff for you. The first was a letter, the second was a necklace I had left Niell, and the third was a bracelet that was with the letter I gave you....
...Look for him Altair, find your real family. Find your true happiness, we will be with you no matter what....
...Last words: We love you very much, Altair]...
Altair was heartened to hear that they loved her so much that it was so, even if their guess that the village was destroyed was true.
" I love you too much" muttered Altair, hugging the letter from his grandfather.
Then he turned to the letter that came from his mother, he took it with a little hesitation and then opened it. Altair took a breath, and he read the letter.
[To my daughter, Altair.
...I have no desire other than to hear you say the word 'mother' just once. Son, you were born in the world alone is already a great gift for mother, but it seems that mother is too greedy. Because the mother wants your presence by my side, without thinking about the long-established hatred in this world....
...I also apologize for leaving you, when you were very small, but I was forced to. You don't have to ask why, just know that mom did it for you....
...Even though I can't see you growing up, just feeling yourself in your stomach makes your heart overflow. Mom is very happy. And I hope you can live a happier life even without a mother....
...But I also have to tell you to always be careful, a lot of people are not what you look like in your eyes. Some of them were wolf in sheep's clothing, they were just making use of others without caring about the person....
...One more thing, you must remember this mother's words for the necklace you wear, "Blood and tears will lead you to the truth that exists. "...
...Someday, everything that happens to us will show you that necklace will lead you to where we are. We're so grateful that you were raised by those good people, because that's why......
...Until that time comes, please you should be fine, you should be able to live. Although this seems pushy, but live without shackles by hiding your identity, never let the person who knows your identity. Except for the families of the Empire of Foldes and the Chrysos Empire, and a few people related to them....
...Finally said,...
...I love you so much, Altair]...
Tears fell back on his cheeks, Altair was eager to find out what his parents were like. Wanting to hug them, wanting to hear the word affection directly from them. Also want to know the reason why he grew up apart from them.
" i.. I want to meet mom.. Hix.. I love my mom, too, because of that.. Hix.. I want to meet.. Hiks. " said Altair.
That night, Altair cried from reading the two letters, as her mother had said. He gets a lot of affection, but at the same time he also gets sadness when the affection is gone.
****
tomorrow morning.
Yin was stunned when she saw Altair this morning.. Altair's eyes looked slightly swollen at this moment.
" Is there any... The matter?? Your eyes are swollen. "ask Yin.
" Ah, no. That's because last night I read letters from my mother and grandfather, I was so sad because it was crying all night" Altair replied with a clumsy smile.
" Is that so, okay. Can we go?? " tanya Yin, who was embraced by Altair.
Yin brought Altair who lived in the palace of Marigold, which was the palace of the princess. Heading to the Emperor's palace, while explaining every corner of the place. Altair didn't really understand why he was being explained that way, could it be that he knew it or maybe because Yin thought he was curious.
But yeah.. Altair did not think that it was a bad thing, knowing about the origin of such an Imperial palace.
" So, is there anything you want to ask?? " ask Yin in the middle of their journey.
Altair shook her head, "Nothing..Do I really have to meet with His Majesty?? " said Altair tensely.
Yeah, how is it not tense. He would face off against this leader of the Empire of Foldes, what if he made a mistake and ended up getting punished. That's what he was so worried about.
But Yin just smiled hearing her, "Of course, after all His Majesty should know of your whereabouts "he replied.
" Yes, but" said Altair.
" You don't have to worry, just be ordinary. And one more thing, "said Yin hangs, which makes Altair curious. " When you confront His Majesty, you do not need to pay respect to him" he continued.
" huh?! Ta, But.. Isn't that disrespectful?? " alttair was a little panicked.
" For others, yes. But that doesn't apply to you, " replied Yin.
Altair was confused by Yin's intentions, but he would follow as he said. But still.. It did not reduce the nervous feeling he felt at this time, in fact he was more nervous. And by accident, Altair and Yin also met with two people who were also about to meet the emperor.
" Her Majesty the prince. Are you also going to go see the king?? " ask Yin to the two people.
