The Queen Of The Demon World
24. The 7th prince

‘H-almost, fortunately my demon soul is still sealed. Otherwise, I will definitely be hunted!’ inwardly Ethelyne with a gasp of breath, he stood under the tree while taking shelter. ‘About what should I do after my identity is revealed? To finish off those who know my secret, but my magic energy is really not enough to make magic anymore. Damn it, I should have asked for a leave of absence on that fucking Eadric earlier!’

‘Master, do you think he'll allow it? You just started working here for two or three days, and you want to ask for a leave?? Even a servant who has worked for many years alone would not dare to ask the Prince.’

“Humph, who cares. After all, it was her own fault that made Aelene poisoned. And again, healing her with that unstable magic also drained half of my magic energy tau!”

‘Master.’

The sound of Flowing sounded very slow and hoarse. “What's up? It is impossible for spirit animals to get sick.”

‘You this ... really sucks!! How could I possibly have a Master like you! Oh god, what was my sin in my previous life to the point of getting a complainer master and many just like this??’

Ethelyne immediately covered his ears when he heard the sound of the shouting of Flowing, he himself did not know what the matter of his spirit beast was until it sounded very depressed.

“Flowing. What are you-”

“I told you, stop following me!!”

Ethelyne turned her head to the origin of the voice, she stared at the puzzled man who looked familiar. The man continued to be followed by two shadow guards as well as four servants.

‘Why does he feel so familiar?’

‘Master, have you forgotten? He is the man who bumped into you while going to the inn.’

‘Ah, true too! Men do not know thank you it appeared after so long.’ Ethelyne grinned. “Hehehe, time for revenge.”

‘Master, than that. Better--’

“He was the one who followed me!”

Ethelyne who was just about to approach the man was immediately shocked as the man showed it with a satisfied smile.

“Your Majesty, we escort you not to flee again from the kingdom.”

“Do you want to dispute my order??”

The two guards and the servants stared at each other. “But Your Excellency ..”

“Quite, this is my last command.” The man walked towards Ethelyne, he was about to pull the girl's hand but stopped when he saw blood continuously seeping out on Ethelyne's arm. “Are you hurt?”

Ethelyne suddenly realized, he had forgotten the pain of the scorching sun and his conversation with Flowing. ‘Sial, what answer should I give you??’

‘So I've wanted to tell you, but you didn't listen at all.’

“Ahaha, I'm fine. I was accidentally ... eh?” Ethelyne's gaze suddenly darkened, she fell and was unconscious.

Fortunately, the man quickly caught him and did not fall to the floor. “Hey, wakeup. What happened?” he asked as he patted Ethelyne's face slowly.

“Your Majesty, what happened?” asked one of the shadow guards, they approached the man after seeing him capture a foreign girl.

The man was holding Ethelyne ala bridal style. “Call the healer to the palace now!”

“*Eugh*~.” Ethelyne opened her eyes, she woke up while holding her aching shoulder.

‘*Master, how are you doing? Does your shoulder still hurt*?’

‘Lumayan, where am I?’ Ethelyne looked at the familiar-looking surroundings.

‘*You are in the man's palace*.’

‘'That guy'? Ah, the one who hit me and I met earlier, right? Did he help me? Whose palace am I at?’

‘*I don't know, but it looks like. I heard one of the men who followed him tell the waiter to bring the healer to the Orchid palace*.’

‘Orchid Stalls? Is this Zachary's palace? So he helped me.’ Ethelyne was pensive, she suddenly regained consciousness. Ethelyne immediately touched his face, fortunately. The veil he used was still stuck on his face, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Ethelyne turned her head towards the voice, she immediately stood up and saluted. “May Happiness always be with you, Your Majesty. Sorry for not recognizing you earlier and thank you for saving me.”

“No problem, how are you doing now? You've been bleeding a lot.”

Ethelyne held onto her shoulder, she smiled faintly. “I'm fine, I also want to thank you for not taking off my veil.”

“I told you it doesn't matter, I just wanted to know. Why did you get hurt so close to blood loss, did something bother you in my palace?”

‘There's no way I'd say that fucking Eadric was bothering me!’ Ethelyne stood upright even though his gaze was still straight to the floor. “Sata is okay, Your Honor. I just accidentally got lost to the training ground and was hit by an attack.”

“Really? So you're the new waitress here, it's worth it I've never seen you. But ...” Zachary stared at Ethelyne in full search. ‘Why does his voice feel so familiar in my ears? Have I heard that voice before?’

“Yes, Your Grace. My name is Rimuru, I work at the palace of His Highness the 6th Prince.” Ethelyne bowed respectfully as she gently lifted the end of her servant dress.

Zachary looked at him full of search. “I don't know if the waiter knows manners like a noble girl.”

‘Mampus!’ Ethelyne cussed herself inwardly, she cursed her folly of carelessly acting gracefully in disguise as a servant.

‘*Master .. Please solve your own problems, I need rehabilitation. So excuse me, please don't call me in the next 10 days*.’

‘Flowing shit!! Just look at it later, I will make you into the food of those demon wolves!’ inner Ethelyne shouted, she sighed and looked at Zachary with a serious look. “That's exactly the case, Your Majesty. If the servants did not have manners, then this kingdom would be underestimated. It seems you do not know that before being sent here, we have learned the manners of a knowledgeable teacher.”

“Hem, true too. I don't understand anything about women, moving on to other topics. Since I saved you, then from now on. You will be my servant and follow me everywhere!”

“Eh? What?”?

“Cannot!!”

Both Ethelyne and Zachary turned towards the door, Eadric standing in the doorway with his loyal Knight, Ned.

“Oh, Sister 6. I didn't expect you to visit my palace,” Zachary said in a polite tone but in contrast to his cynical smile.

Eadric with his flat face walked towards the two and stood in front of Ethelyne blocking his view.

‘Is His Highness jealous because the 7th Prince wants to take his servant? Butwhy? Is that waitress that special? He can even use strange magic, my guess is getting stronger. She is ... a witch!’ inner Ned while staring at Ethelyne fiercely. ‘Cannot, I must protect Your Majesty!’

“What's up, Sister 6? Don't you want to give me one of your servants?”
