The four earthlings sitting on a large round table seemed uncomfortable. Every now and then, Alice stared at the few servants surrounding them. Previously, they were brought here for dinner. But the presence of the servants surrounding them really disturbed the enjoyment of food.
"May I eat?" ask Grace while blinking innocently. He was indeed very hungry and the uncomfortable aura of the others was also contagious to him.
"You are!" boby grumbled while staring hard. Since childhood, because of the neighbors. Alice and Grace grew up with him. As she got older, Grace did not like Alice and Boby's boring attitude. Always talk and talk about lessons. Since then, if you meet. Boby and Grace always fight for the little things.
Meanwhile, Aland had already taken food on the table. A big fish. He chews slowly. Feeling how the fish's flesh took over him. It does not taste like other grilled fish that are full of flavor and aroma of spices. But it just tastes like regular fish meat. But very sweet. Terribly sweet.
"What kind of food is this!" grumbled Grace with an annoyed face. He ate a meat that was not what meat. Just meat. No salty or crunchy taste. Maybe they don't use spices here.
"Aland what are you eating? is that delicious?" Aland was silent but his head nodded slowly. He eats with gourmand. There was no rice on the table. Just some grilled meat and fresh fruits. Alice herself was more curious about the taste of the fruit which turned out to be very sweet.
The apple-shaped fruit is green and has a high sweet taste and is very fresh. One thing that Alice knows, the fruit of the Jungle Land has many times the taste of the fruits on earth.
Boby himself prefers grilled fish like Aland and Grace. They eat quite contentedly. Although several times heard grunts from Grace that the chef in the Wilson family will consider the cuisine at this table is garbage. He was enjoying this dish.
When he finished eating, the four people stood up and the rest of the food and the plate just disappeared. Lost in the sense that there was a hole that dropped the food.
Grace spontaneously crouched down and looked for food under the table. And all he saw was a big hose.
"Where was the food?" grace asked with a curious face of course.
"Disposal" said one of the servants there. Some of the servants then drove them to their respective rooms. While in the middle of the trip, Alice who was in the care of several servants and may actually be a ladyboy. He said he didn't want to be controlled. There was a debate but Alice won. Threatening that they made Alice uncomfortable and she brought it to the King. The servants complied out of fear.
After that, Alice walked alone to the Eastern part of the Palace. The girl thought hard why her room was in the East wing of the Palace unlike the other three in the West. Until a loud noise made him flinch. Alice immediately searched for the origin of the sound. And he found a large hall with a long table and several people sitting there. There seems to be a meeting. Curiosity instantly took over Alice.
The room is so large but has a very prominent deficiency. The lack of a door. Yes, door. Weird right? Alice stuck her body against the wall. Then start eavesdropping.
"We can't let this matter linger." the voice was very heavy and sounded very firm. Alice caught a glimpse. A man with white hair and gray eyes was standing there. His face was riled up and his ears were pointed like Ji's.
"What's going on?" murmured in his heart.Alice again sharpened his hearing.
"We know very well that the snake is only one remnant. We have to act fast."
"I agree, they've gone too far this time." the other voice made Alice even more curious. Who are the 'those' people talking about?
"I understand, but we should think calmly." The voice Alice knew. The king.
"Until when will we let them do their best!"
"Yes, if it's like this the Jungle Country will be conquered. You never think noble. That they're really after us!"
"I know!"
Alice again tried to listen but she felt noticed. His eyes were perfectly rounded when he turned around and saw some people staring at him. Alice swallows saliva.
"I-i-i"
"You're Alice?" a soft voice with a warm smile made Alice freeze. The beautiful woman in front of him shook her hands slowly. Then some women who might be waiters or maids went from there. Alice and the woman.
Women with emerald eyes and long hair pass through the waist. Very pretty with thin lips, smile. The tiara above her head made Alice come back terrified.
"Her Majesty the queen?" Alice spoke calmly after controlling herself earlier. The woman smiled.
"What are you doing?" ask the Queen kindly. Still with a smile. Alice nodded nervously.
"I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean it" Alice said softly. He lowered his head and a touch he felt on the back of his head.
"Nothing, I understand. Children like you always want to know anything." the queen said in a very soft tone. Alice just silently looked into those eyes.
"Come with me!" a soft but firm voice made Alice spontaneously accept the invitation by linking their fingers together.
Alice walked next to the queen with astonished eyes. Looking at how the queen linked their hands like a mother holding her child.
The two women walked gracefully towards a sizable room. When you get there, you only see a lot of green dresses. He looked at the queen who was sitting on one of the long chairs or rather like a long sofa..
"Come on Alice!" he said softly while extending his clenched hand. Alice welcomed the hand while sitting next to her.
"Nobody will come in here. This is my private room" said Queen Jae softly.
"Do you want to punish me?" alice asked with eyes. Like a child caught making a mistake by his mother. The woman laughed. Makes Alice gobsmack. The queen laughed like a gentle twilight wind. Crisp and no load. His face did not age like the king. Queen Jae is like a beautiful 20-year-old woman on earth.
"Where might I punish you."
"Then?" alice asked in surprise.
"You want to know what they're talking about, don't you?" Alice nodded spontaneously.
"Who do the people in the room mean? the so-called 'they'? " ask Alice without awkwardness. He really wanted to know.
"The Hou Nation in the Country of Ern."
Alice gasps.
