On a warm morning, the cold mountains of the northern hemisphere are now beginning to be illuminated by the sun.
Princess Gwen slowly opened her eyes, after 3 days of walking through the wild territory to return to Hirendel Castle.
The distinctive aroma of the morning was accompanied by the chirping of birds and blooming flowers welcoming Princess Gwen as the Princess walked out of her tent.
Seeing the Princess coming out of the tent, Captain Jones swiftly stood beside the Princess and followed her walking into a small river.
“Jones, what animal is it?” Princess Gwen pointed her index finger across the small river filled with salmon.
“Wire! Princess, it is a bear! Please Mr Princess retreat!” Captain Jones swiftly stood his back to Princess Gwen when he saw such a huge bear staring at them.
*Grrrr!
The bear roared when it saw Captain Jones making eye contact with him.
*byrouar!!!
The bear fearlessly ran towards Captain Jones, annoyed by their presence.
“Princess, please run to the tent.” After seeing Princess Gwen running back, Captain Jones prepared his horses to receive an attack from the bear.
*bruk!
The sound of the bear's body cradled the body of Captain Jones.
*wush
Captain Jones slammed the body of a 300kg bear easily into the small river in front of him.
“Come, teddy bear!” shouted Captain Jones and immediately jumped at high speed towards the bear who had just crashed into the small river.
*bruk!
The empty-handed blow from Captain Jones landed right in the bear's stomach, causing the bear to faint.
“Teddy bears like this are just toys for me! Hahaha!” Captain Jones stroked his waist, then lifted the bear's body back into their tent to serve as breakfast for his troops.
Captain Jones is the most powerful elite soldier the Victorian Kingdom has ever had.
In the wars of the kingdoms at the time of the conquest a few years ago, Captain Jones had a one-on-one duel against King Midas of Sparta.
The result of their fight was a series, both wounded and exhausted after a day-long fight in the Grayback valley, near the city of Athens.
The bodies of King Midas and Captain Jones both weigh 120kg and are equipped with stout muscles all over their bodies. Their height is also almost the same, which is 2 meters.
From that day forward, the name of Captain Jones became known throughout the western and northern kingdoms.
While cooking accompanied by Princess Gwen, Captain Jones asked the Princess saying, “Mr Princess, why did the Princess look moody these few days?”
“Ah no, Jones. I just miss someone.” Princess Gwen smiled as she twirled the bear meat over the campfire.
“Force the impoliteness of the servant, who is that lucky man, Princess?”
“Prince Edward. I got word from Captain Lucius that Edward was married to an Elf Queen.” Still with a smile, Princess Gwen tried to look okay even though in her heart it felt like being pierced.
“Paduka Edward is an outstanding exemplary Prince. Your Majesty has always respected his enemy while on the battlefield by burying all the bodies that have been killed by him,” replied Captain Jones while trying to slip firewood.
“Ya, she is a great person.”
“Mr Princess, I've known Lord Edward for over 10 years. Your Majesty Edward must have his own reasons why he did that.”
“Yes, of course. However, I hope Edward will be happy with his wife now.”
While conversing with Captain Jones, Princess Gwen distributed the food she prepared for her exhausted soldiers, treating them with her own hands, and giving them a hand, even Princess Gwen sewed the clothes of her soldiers who were torn from carrying heavy loads during the journey back to Hirendel Castle.
Unlike the silly Queen Aerin, Princess Gwen is like a mother who has compassion and is full of affection for whatever is around her.
Before Edmud's betrayal, Princess Gwen and Prince Edward were scheduled to marry after the winter.
But all that is already impossible because now the Kingdom of Victoria has been captured through the assassination of King Julien, spearheaded by his youngest son Edmud Collins.
Even so, Princess Gwen every day always took the opportunity to be alone and began to pray for Prince Edward's safety in gathering his military fleet.
…
Different hemispheres in the same morning.
A few kilometers from Saint’s Haven City.
The sun is now rising slowly, signaling a tense day is about to begin.
In the tent, Queen Aerin first woke up from Edward so that he would take advantage of the opportunity to do his routine on Edward's body.
“Hehe, it is time to taste this great sausage!” murmured Queen Aerin smiled wickedly while looking at her husband's burly body which was very tempting.
As Queen Aerin slowly rides Edward's body, Captain Lucius calls Edward to hear the testimony of 3 spies they sent yesterday to investigate the entrance.
“Paduka! 3 Our spies have returned, please Your Majesty join us to hear their testimonies!” captain Lucius shouted loudly to wake Edward from his sleep.
Hearing his name being called, Edward opened his eyes immediately.
How surprised Edward when he saw Queen Aerin would do something on his big sausage.
“Queen, not now! I have to go!” edward whispered and put all his clothes together, and immediately followed Captain Lucius out.
“Ish! I just want to ask for rations is hard! Huaaaaa!” erang Queen Aerin frowned while putting her clothes on and followed Edward out.
“But I have fulfilled everything he asked for! Never mind, I have to get it tonight! Can't help but, or I'll blow up Saint’s Haven City!”
Queen Aerin finally arrived at the command tent.
In this tent contains Edward, Captain Lucius, Corporal Penny, and 3 spies.
Just by looking at Edward speak, his cheeks warmed up and Queen Aerin became misbehaved.
As it was already so hot, Queen Aerin slowly walked closer to Edward.
While watching Edward explain up close, Queen Aerin occasionally tickled Edward's thighs until his hands continued to ride mischievously.
“Aerin!!! Why are your fingers holding ‘sosisku’?! Let go or I'll be mad!” edward whispered in their secret communication with a gaze that was still focused on the map.
“Ish! So give me my ration!” Queen Aerin tipped her waist with a frown looking at Edward who was busy with his affairs.
“Wait for me in room.”
“Really? Huaoo!!! And finally! If you don't come I'll blow up Saint’s Haven City!”
Queen Aerin immediately ran over excitedly to her room.
He even prepares candles when it is still morning, prepares wine, and tidies his mattress.
After preparing everything so thoroughly, Queen Aerin then lay in her room and waited for Edward.
As Queen Aerin waited in excitement, suddenly a roar from such a huge trumpet was heard.
Queen Aerin immediately ran out in thin clothes to see the origin of the sound.
“Erenel!” call Queen Aerin through her ringleader.
At once Erenel emerged from behind the clouds and immediately swooped towards Queen Aerin.
“Aerin, please see what happens in front!” edward shouted when he saw his wife had boarded Erenel.
“Alright, husband! You guys get ready who knows there will be another attack!”
*wush
The flapping of wings from Erenel wagging at full force instantly flew towards the origin of the sound along with Queen Aerin on her back.
From the aerial view after flying for a few minutes, Queen Aerin saw such a large fleet of troops gathering in the middle of Saint’s Haven City.
It seemed like the fleet of troops from the Empress Kingdom was preparing to wage war.
“They're preparing for war? But with whom? It was impossible for them to deploy such a fleet of troops just to fight Edward!” murmured Queen Aerin while flying over Saint’s Haven City from a height that could not be seen from below.
Out of curiosity as to who the Imperial Empress Army would be fighting, Queen Aerin flew far east towards Saint’s Haven City.
About 10 kilometers east of Saint’s Haven City, Queen Aerin saw a fleet of other troops moving using her horses.
“Erenel, use your eagle eyes to see what flags they carry!”
*Roar-roar!!!
“Persian Kingdom Flag?!”
Realizing that the Empress Kingdom was going to war, Queen Aerin directly contacted Edward through their secret communication saying, “The Empress Kingdom is going to fight against the Persian Kingdom in the east direction of Saint’s Haven City! If you want to infiltrate their city, this is the right time!”
“Alright! We will be leaving right now!”
“I'll be waiting for you guys inside Saint’s Haven City. Especially for you, my husband, I will wait in the inn room!”
“Be careful, my wife. I don't want to see a single scratch on your body!”
“Edward ... later after we are safe at the inn, will I get it?”
“Get what?”
“Ish! Did you forget again?!”
“Ah of course. Prepare your fingers to massage my back again!”
“Edward! Seriously!!”
While flying towards the City of Saint’s Haven, Queen Aerin did not hear any more answers from Edward which means they were infiltrating the City of Saint’s Haven through the tunnel.
…
Underground tunnel in Saint’s Haven City.
“Since I arrived here, I sensed that there were some people following us,” whispered Penny to Edward's ear while walking down the tunnel that had so many branches.
Surely Penny's suspicion was proven after Captain Lucius gave a signal ‘A’ which in the military code of the Kingdom of Victoria means danger, threat, or spy.
Getting a signal from Captain Lucius, all Edward's troops immediately turned off the torch in their hands, then walked without making a sound.
As usual, Edward and Penny would pretend to be a married couple.
Penny had a smile when she would return to the role, so she could take advantage of Edward's burly body again.
But with Arthemis in disguise this time, Arthemis will join as Edward's wife as well.
Which means Edward will confess to bringing two of his wives.
Only Queen Aerin does not know about this disguise formation, so there may be misunderstandings between the women.
After an hour of circling around and pretending to be lost in the tunnel, Captain Lucius sensed that the assassins had already lost track of them far behind.
Realizing they were safe and only needed to climb through the stairs that were in front of them, Edward gave his troops a direction to meet again in 3 days on the South Hill.
They had to buy food stocks, weapons stock, and some other necessities before they would arrive at the sea shore of Dragon’s Cross.
