The Queen of Vasellica Moon's
A Diversion

"This castle, open a place you can go at will, Princess Lucy!"

Lucy recalled, this figure was the man who came to meet her and Kendric during a meal together in the park. If it's not wrong, Kendric called her by the name, "Robert?"

"I'm so flattered, you can remember my name, Princess."

What's Robert doing here with that bloody sword? What this Castle is a forbidden place for anyone to enter.

Robert glanced at the sword in his hand, "I've been hunting bears, Princess. He said he wanted to give you a warm coat of white bear skin, so I was hunting for you-Aa-Aa!! I shouldn't have told him." Robert seemed to regret his stupidity.

"Next time, you should pay attention to your words," Lucy chuckled. "Yes, you said, this Castle I can't go to. May I know why?"

"Daughter, here are too many ferocious beasts that have powerful magic spirits. In the past, the kingdom of Apollo was in this Castle. But because too many wild animals took their toll, His Majesty decided to move to a safe area. Although it's still a territory, but in the new Apollo kingdom it's much safer now."

"We'd better go, and I hope you don't tell him you're here." Continue Robert.

"Why?"

"Because, Your Majesty will definitely be very worried about you, and .., Sylfia can also be scolded if she does not keep an eye on the Princess at this time."

"Aa.m., you're right."

"Let's Princess."

Lucy walks ahead of Robert to return to her Castle. However, as her steps slowed down Lucy glanced at the bear wounded by the sword slash.

And what made him feel strange was the blood of a black bear while robert's sword was stained with red blood. He felt that there was something strange about this same situation.

Shouldn't the bear be red if it's Robert's prey? Or is it because winter is now the color of the bear's blood changing naturally due to the temperature?

Never mind, you better go back

Soon Lucy sped up her pace, though Lucy was eager to ask this oddity. But he tried to ignore it maybe just his gut feeling. Robert hurriedly guided the return of his future Empress before he realized it.

Because actually, Robert was very relieved when he managed to stop Lucy from entering the Castle. Otherwise it could be fatal, because just one step away Lucy will see some bodies scattered full of blood.

On Kendric's own orders, Robert is tasked with killing all the servants and Knights or anyone who tries to enter the Castle. No matter it was from the enemy camp or his subordinates.

Because the Castle is a forbidden place that holds a million secret memories of Kendric's dark past, along with a woman who became a role model of nature as Goddess Vernitysha.

Arriving at the labyrinth door, Robert stops driving Lucy because he still has to do other work. Moreover, he must eliminate any traces of Lucy left along the road to the secret Castle.

"After this, ask Sylfia to serve warm tea and a thick blanket. The weather is so cold, he will also worry if you fall sick Princess."

"Well, you don't stay out too long either. Because in the future you need to replace Kendric to take care of his work as long as we're in Darkness World."

"I am very pleased with your concern, may the Princess be able to stay long on this Apollo."

"I just left for a while, after talking about this to my family. I intend to come back here."

"Thank God, we look forward to your happy day in the future at this residence."

Lucy looks embarrassed, but she also awaits that day she will always feel every day forget the past that is so bitter to remember.

"Then I'll go first."

"Daughter, wait a minute." Robert stops Lucy, so Lucy looks back. "If I may know, how did you get to the Castle by yourself?"

"I also did not know that in the back area of the palace garden there was a labyrinth and a Castle. But thanks to that fox I just found out there's a tem---"

"Cloak? Is that the Princess' pet?"

"Molie is in winter hibernation, though not as usual. But the fox I met was very different from Molie and it wasn't him because I knew Molie so well."

Robert felt there was something strange especially the labyrinth was just repaired Kendric so it would be very difficult to find a way out. But how can it be? It means that as far as Robert knows other than Princess Lucy's pet fox, there is no other spirit Fox after 98 centuries last year.

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's not a big deal. It's just that I'm worried as long as you go to Castle you'll be in a wild animal's pursuit."

"Don't worry, I'm fine and since coming back with you I haven't seen any beasts."

"Eh-I still have other business. Tomorrow you will return to Darkness World, preferably Princess Rest first."

"Well," Lucy resumed her steps to regain her residence. While Robert used his magic to add a layer of fog to cover the labyrinth area then disappeared without a trace left behind.

*the*Darkness World

~Lucifer Kingdom's.

Aletha looked at a beautiful and rare sight for her life. Like a priceless jewel painting with any precious item.

After a long time, Welliam finally took the time to play with his beloved Princess-Look at Husband and his son from a window of the Palace, adding to the euphoria of happiness Aletha to double.

They play in the snow with Sofia's friends. At first Aletha considered this only a factor of the age of children who imagine, but it turns out this daughter can indeed understand and be able to talk to various types of animals.

"Papa, that's not how it made her," Sofia looked sullen and annoyed for the umpteenth time.

Although from afar Aletha saw them really enjoy playing time, but in fact, Sofia had been struggling with the attitude of Welliam who never understood how to make snow dolls.

"Isn't it just a pile of snow, then given twigs and other accessories? Why has my Lord Daughter been pouting since?"

"It turns out Papa really sucks from Roby. Even Uni Lucy alone is far more reliable than Papa, making time like this is still difficult." Sofia increasingly threw away her face with her young beautiful look.

"Who is Roby? And also, your Papa is far more talented than your Union."

"Roby is Sofia's friend, the red squirrel Sofia saved two weeks ago by the pool. Even though Roby's a squirrel but she's a lot smarter, look at how pretty a snow doll Roby's got." Sofia pointed to her little friend who was still arranging a snow doll to show Sofia later.

"Ha! Do you think I can't make it much better, either, than that insect?"

Sofia nodded very cutely, "And also, Roby is a squirrel not an insect. Anyway, Papa's very much outclassed Roby."

Hearing that left the soul of Lord Welliam so majestic injured. How could his daughter compare this trivial thing to a squirrel, which means that his ability is so far inferior to the squirrel's small brain.

Sofia stepped forward a few steps and pulled Welliam's coat, so that Welliam had to align herself with the height of her little daughter.

"What's wrong? why is it that after mocking your Papa, my daughter even looks sad?"

Sofia kicked a small pile of snow under her footing, with her potent pose. "Sofia's birthday is soon, do you remember?"

"Of course, you even marked it on all the calendars of the constellations in the kingdom. How could your Papa forget this?"

"Sofia knows Papa is busy and can rarely be present on Sofia--'s birthday"

"really? It's not that last year Papa had any territorial affairs, even leaving my birthday party early before the official event starts."

Welliam seemed unable to evade the innocent speech of his daughter, despite his age so young but he grew up with an extraordinary understanding so that, she became the Small Lady who was so ethical in the affairs of noble upbringing like Lucy as a child. Perhaps, because the Lady's attitude teacher of honor was taught directly by her own sister.

"L-at least you received Papa's gift, right?"

Sofia frowned again this time she folded her hands in front of her chest so adorable. "Did you think Sofia wanted it so much, like the other kids?"

"So, you don't like that zerra diamond crown?"

Sofia shook her head, "Ha .., Mama should often be dizzy with Papa's attitude. It turns out that Papa is not romantic, even what he wants his daughter does not know."

"Where did you learn Romantic vocabulary?"

"Briant's grandfather."

"Don't just understand that nonsense from someone else, so what do you want? Does your Papa need to buy you a set of dress shops?"

"Grandfather has given Sofia a warehouse full of jewelry and fancy dresses and toys. Sofia no longer wanted to," Sofia sulked while sitting on the snow with her childish pose.

"Then, what about some of the filsavat books? This Papa's daughter is so clever that she has almost mastered a single piece of knowledge theory."

"Union Lucy has created two libraries, specifically for Sofia."

"Then, park. Whatever kind of flower Papa aka--"

"No, Sofia also has a flower garden made by Grandma."

Welliam seemed to think hard, trying to find another way so that his daughter did not continue to sulk at him. "Aa, what about the bow? Papa listen, Sofia's getting interested in learning archery?"

Sofia sighed even more "Papa forgot, if the one who taught Sofia the basics of archery was Mama. Surely Sofia already has her own bow, although Sofia can not use it because of Sofia's young age. But, the simple bow that Mama gave so Sofia liked. So Sofia doesn't want to have two, if Papa is still busy Papa can miss my birthday later," Sofia looks moody while playing snow with her index finger.

Seeing the sadness of his daughter of course Welliam would not be able to see it. She carried Sofia, then stroked the cuby cheek of her only daughter.

"Alright, this time Papa will grant you whatever you want. Even if it's impossible, Papa will make it happen."

"Really?"

Welliam pinched softly Sofia's cheek,"Sure. Whatever you want."

"Papa, when will Union Lucy come home? Sofia misses him so much."

Welliam seemed confused how to explain it to his daughter when it came to Lucy. "You miss your Union more than your Papa who was almost tormented for 2 months not seeing you?"

"Of course, Sofia misses Papa a lot, but Uni says it's only gone for a while but now how long has Sofia not seen the Union."

It's true that Sofia said, counting from her departure, it's been even a month and Lucy still hasn't returned. He can understand if this daughter is so lonely, there is only Lucy who always accompanies Sofia to play.

Even if he and Aletha were having a precarious affair, they would definitely leave the Princess alone to this Sister. But he also came to mind during this month, Aletha no longer reported what activities Lucy did while on Earth.

Did something happen?

"Papa?"

"Yes?"

"Papa hasn't answered him yet," Sofia looked at Welliam with an innocent look full of curiosity. "Right now, Union Lucy's on business, she'll be back soon."

"Hem, every Sofia asks this. Grandpa, Grandma, and Mama must have answered the same thing as Papa. Papa, Sofia really wants to play with Uni," Sofia pleads with Welliam to grant her wish.

"Otherwise, your Union left not wanting to play with you. But there's a big problem that only your Union can solve on its own."

"Papa couldn't help either?"

"True, even your Grandfather who was praised as the strongest God couldn't help him." Sofia looks even sadder, but when she sees Aletha in the Castle window makes her so aware of her duties from her Mama.

He forgot, if in fact he had to help his Mama give free-time talk things out with his Grandpa and his Papa should not know it. Although Sofia does not know why it should be kept secret, but she feels more guilty if her mother is disappointed just because she can not solve the problem this easily.

"Right, I have to buy Papa some time."

"You said something?"

"No, Sofia was just saying-If Papa would grant to play all day with Sofia, instead Papa could not bring Uni Lucy home quickly."

"That's the easy thing, all right now what are we playing?"

"Kan Papa hasn't finished the snow doll properly. Anyway have to finish this first just play another, said Uni Lucy if we can make it before nightfall. There will be fairies who give gifts, Sofia likes gifts and hopes to get them again."

"Again?"

"Winter last year, when Sofia made it with Lucy's Union. The elf had indeed given a gift to Sofia, even years before."

"Why did I just hear this? Is that just Lucy's book?"

"Papa, can or not?" Sofia again put on her innocent look.

Welliam wanted to say that it was a lie, but if his daughter was sad again what? It could be that she was chopped off by Aletha and her father, considering that Sofia's tears were precious to the Demon family.

Anyway, Welliam also did not want his daughter to be sad. He also lowered his daughter back and then looked back at the pile of snow so that he could form the snow doll that his daughter wanted.

"I just need to make a snow doll, right? that's an easy thing."

"Aah! Sofia forgot to say, Uni said that she should not use magic and the boat will run away."

"That's one grand, Lucy must've lied to you."

"Father !!" In a hurry Welliam scooped the snow to make a snowball that would be formed, seeing the appearance of his daughter if it had been scooped would be exactly like Aletha. It is better to follow it than to be ignored by Sofia constantly.

While Sofia, unbeknownst to Welliam, looked back to see her mother who was still watching her from inside the Palace. Sofia held up her tiny thumb as a gesture that everything was safe.

While Aletha increasingly smiled happily and then replied to her Little Princess with a gesture 'okay '. Fortunately he was so compact with Sofia that in the future if you want to trick Welliam, asking for Sofia's help will not be difficult.

"Now, I have to tell you first about Lucy's whereabouts and her relationship with Kendric. Better, Welliam wasn't told at the beginning if he knew at the beginning before Father and Mother. He could break through the border of the Imorrtal dimension."

Aletha walked towards the main residence, to meet with Lezzy and Fedrick. "Your Majesty, where are you going?" said a waiter.

"I want to see Father and Mother." Aletha just walked past her servant. "But what about this tea?"

"You're the one who drinks."

"Huh?"
