Somewhere else...
I was introduced to all the servants in Zu's residence. Not much, anyway. Only about five female servants. And his age is fairly young, probably around thirty and above.
It turned out that Zu's residence was not much different from Rain's residence. It may be different in the size of the room. Zu's room is wider and more like a luxury apartment, while Rain's room is like a regular house but still classy.
Both of them make me feel at home.
In front of the Zu residence, there were two soldiers standing guard and one gardener. Zu really likes gardening. Behind the residence is planted with various kinds of flowers and also fruit grafts. I could not believe it when I saw that there was an orange tree that was very short in size, but the fruit was very thick.
More interestingly, there is an artificial river here. Or maybe more precisely the baths where the water flows. I want to quickly feel the coldness of the water. The place is also closed, so it can be said to be comfortable. Just like a hot spring pool in Space.
After meeting the servants at Zu's residence, I was invited by him to the Asian palace. And now it just arrived at the front page. It occurred to me that this was one of the rooms in the palace. But it turns out, the room I occupied was one of the rooms in Zu's residence.
"Miss, this is our palace" he said, helping me get off the horse.
We are?! I was surprised, barely understanding his words.
Zu held my hand, he asked me to hold this arm. And because it was already together, I also took a friendly arm. We walked into the palace.
Whoa! So big and magnificent!
Arriving at the main room, I saw a very magnificent designed building. Perhaps the extent is twice that of my two princes' palace. The architecture is luxurious and elegant. The pillars of his palace were also sturdy again large.
Like being in a fairyland.
The servants of this palace seemed to be wearing the same uniform, white in color. Unlike in the Space, all of his servants wore black uniforms.
Is there a specific meaning to the color?
"Welcome, Prince, Princess." The whole waiter welcomed us.
"Thank you" I replied, smiling at them.
The interior and exterior of the building is more like a European kingdom. I don't know exactly, anyway. But apparently, all countries use the same building architecture. Magnificent, luxurious, classy and elegant.
"Miss, your name here will turn into a Goddess. You mind?" ask me while walking together.
"Eh? Why should it be replaced?" I disagree less.
"I'm afraid Angkasa will find you easily if you use your real name. So, is it okay?" Zu was like begging me.
Ish, he's just changing people's names.
Actually I object to her request. But, I thought back to the message of the Great Elder asking not to go against the current. So I had to accept his request.
"All right."
Zu smiled at me. We then headed to one of the rooms in this palace. I don't know what room, I just follow it. There was something unique I met.
A few moments later...
Now I have arrived in a room. I saw a luxurious and elegant guest chair. The chairs were red with gold engraving on each side, and on his desk were clear crystal jars containing various kinds of snacks. I was then asked by Zu to sit on one of the chairs. And I'll just pick a chair that faces out of the room. I saw a garden of jasmine flowers from behind this translucent window glass.
"Dad, introduce. This is the Goddess, she's my lover."
Before long I saw Zu holding the hand of a man whose hair still looked black. However, his face alone could not be lied to. The man was wearing a king's crown made of gold.
Eh? Is he the king of Asia?
His eyes were slightly narrow with white skin that started to wrinkle. For a moment I realized that he was indeed the king of Asia, after Zu called him father.
But there was something strange about the king, yes.
The king then sat down with Zu's help. Zu sat to the right of the king.
"So this girl stole your heart?" The king begins.
Zu just smiled. He's like he's ashamed of himself. I was .. I was clearly confused.
"Goddess, this is my father." Zu introduced his father to me.
I stood up, bowed, saluted him. Smiling, I greeted the king.
The king turned towards Zu. Zu also seemed to understand his father's intentions.
"Dad, the Goddess comes from Space. So he used a greeting like that" Zu told his father.
"Oh, okay." The king seemed to understand. "Come here, son." The king asked me to sit on his left.
"Okay, Your Majesty." I also according.
"Zu is my first son. He is the future king of this country. I've been telling him to find a companion for a long time. But only now did he dare to take her to the palace." The king explained.
"Nr ...." I glanced at Zu.
"I hope you'll get married soon. My body starts to weaken, I'm afraid I won't be able to attend the wedding."
"Eh?! Your Majesty?!"
I was nervous to hear the king's words. I then stared intently at Zu who was smiling to himself.
"You mind, son?" ask the king.
This Asian king cornered me with his words. I don't think my story will go this fast. I don't know what Zu told his father, I think I should make things clear.
"Sorry, Your Honor. Me and Prince Zu have just gotten close. It's not appropriate to talk about this" I said cautiously.
"Hm ...." The king glanced at his son.
"Sorry, Dad. I was just close to him. But my heart is sure." Zu told the king.
"Well! You young people. Yeah, nevermind. I'm waiting for good news from you sa—"
Suddenly the king coughed before he could continue his words. It seems the king has trouble breathing. I saw his face blushing for a moment.
"Servant! Get me my father's medicine!"
Zu immediately called the waiter to get his father's medicine. While he was massaging his own father's hands. I also helped Zu, fanning the king so that he could breathe more freely.
Why do I feel like something's awkward, huh?
I don't know why I feel like there's something strange going on in this palace. The king's age was like he was suffering from an unnatural disease.
"This, Prince."
Before long the waiter came to bring medicine with his drinking water. The medicine is like a ginseng pill. But I don't know what composition is in the drug.
"Dad, drink it."
Zu quickly helped his father to take the medicine. And before long, the king began to sleep.
"Goddess, I'll stay a while. I'll take you to the room first." Zu said goodbye to me.
"I'm sorry, son. Next time we'll talk again."
The king still had time to say goodbye to me, but I knew if his chest felt tight. Seen from the king who held his own chest.
I nodded, too, saying yes. I saw Zu knock the king into a room, not far from where I was.
Maybe it's the king's room.
Inexhaustible with what I saw, suddenly my heart was moved to find out about the causes of the disease suffered by the king. I wondered what the king was sick and what medicine he was taking.
Looks like I'll have to figure it out myself.
I waited for Zu to return. I saw all sorts of snacks on this table. And without being asked, I just taste one by one. And it feels .. hm, it's delicious.
"Hey! You're here!"
Suddenly someone shouted at me. I turned my head, looking at him while holding this snack.
"Prince Shu?"
I saw the narrow-eyed young man walking over. His footsteps were so fast, he was like he was being chased by something.
