The War Of Gemstone: Owl & Flower
The girl who loved him

A few days later, Archie meets Anna in secret at night on the hill where they profess their love. Archie always steals time and keeps his relationship with Anna a secret. They continued their secret relationship for 4 months from the moment they first met, even though they knew their relationship was forbidden and a disgrace to the Lanvinder family. For Archie the punishment will be lighter but for Anna who is only a villager will get a worse sentence.

On that rather cold night, on a hill, Anna and Archie were sitting under a tree looking at the moon. Archie wrapped his arm around Anna's shoulder and brought Anna's body closer to her. At that time, behind the warm cloth that enveloped the two of them, the girl wanted to say something, but she had difficulty opening her lips. Aware Archie asked, “What's Anna?”

Anna took a deep breath, trying to relax herself. “I've heard.”

“Sound what?”

“Marriage.”

“Sorry. I didn't tell you first.” Archie lowered his voice and slightly lowered his head.

“Tak what. That's not what I want to talk about anyway.”

“What do you mean?”

“I think we should finish our relationship here.”

Just then, Anna's soft voice turned into a cold voice filled with sadness. Archie could not see the blue sparkle that was emanating in his eyes anymore. “Why?” ask Archie curiously.

“From the beginning I should have known. I should have realized that we can't have this relationship.” Anna stood up and moved away from Archie.

Archie slowly approached Anna, grasping the girl's soft hand. “I'm sorry. I still love you, Anna.”

“How about your fiancee? Are you going to leave him?” Anna turned her back on Archie. The girl did not dare to look at the face of the man she loved.

“I'm ready. We can go from here and live together in a far away place.”

“But I can't.” The girl shook her head. “I can't leave my house and my parents here. Besides I've got enough work to meet my needs.”

“I still love you so much, but it's over.” Anna left Archie on the hill that night.

Without them noticing, someone with bad intentions peeked at them from a distance. He has a name, Killer King. With scars on his left cheek and neck, he stared with a full ambition of revenge. The king's assassin thought that his brothers were in prison for the actions of the noble families, now leaving himself and the desire to avenge the deeds of the nobles to his brothers.

A few days later a sad news was discussed by the residents until it came to Archie's ears that made him very hit. A blue-eyed village girl and her parents have been killed. And the girl who was the victim was none other than Anna. While Archie thought that because of the luxury jewelry and all the needs he gave bring disaster to the family of the girl. This leads someone with malicious intentions to loot Anna's house after learning that Anna has a relationship with the nobility.

Archie is immersed in the mishandling, he believes himself to be wrong, because his existence is what actually makes the girl threatened and loses her life. It was he who actually killed his own lover. After hearing the news, Archie often locked himself in his room.

The astonished Father and Mother Archie came, knocking on Archie's room door. “Archie, why you?” ask Brialla, Archie's mother.

Abery violently broke down the door of her room. “You are like this because of this wedding!? Stop this childish behavior! Don't want you to get married. I don't want you to destroy the family.”

For days Archie had been locked in a room without open windows and looked sad. Once in a while Meredith comes along and she offers herself to bear the grief that Archie brings, but the downcast man always refuses her.

For days Archie lamented his grief. As she recalls her memories with Anna, the first time she saw her, the first time the girl greeted her and when the Amoria flowers fell on the hill. As he explores the realm of his memories, a memory from childhood is often told, a fairy tale in a forest that has extraordinary magic. That said, the magic owner who lives in the middle of the forest is said to grant all wishes. With only a grip on his past memories, Archie decides to go to the forest in secret.

At night Archie rushed into the forest wearing a hooded robe that covered his face. He carried a sword on his waist and a lantern. In the middle of his path, Meredith quietly followed him and appeared right before him. Archie averted his gaze, not daring to look at Meredith's vexed face.

“Finally you're out too. What are you planning?” Meredith folded her hands.

Archie's face withered. There was no joy on his face, only sadness and a hint of hope. “Don't bother me, Meredith.”

“For the last time. Archie, can you let me help you? Even if only once.”

“Sorry, Meredith.”

Archie passed by without looking at each other like strangers on a crowded street. However, Archie is not aware of the truth. On the eve of the party, Meredith was lying, she actually did not accept her engagement by force but by her heart's deepest desire to be with the man she had loved for so long. Meredith may be a shy girl, she can't express her true feelings but the help she gives to her man is very sincere. When Meredith saw Archie and Anna at the market, all she felt was pain in her heart. He realizes that Archie doesn't feel the same way, Meredith's only desire is to stand beside him even though the smile that Archie gives is not for him.
