Why Are You So Disinterested In Affection?
Chapter 16

Liana looked at a cave with shining eyes, ah, she can't wait to plunder the spoils of those bandits.

How did Liana get to the nandi's lair? The answer was simple, one bandit Liana deliberately let the escape back to her nest, and Liana stayed behind.

"This way I won't starve when Sera's jerk comes, right? My gold coins, I'm coming" Liana began to enter the cave, she used the shadow step to sneak.

With Liana at the end of the cave, there was a large door there, and it opened slightly.

"Basic is useless! How could we lose 29 members just because of a mere child?!" the sound of broken glass was heard.

Liana peeked at that and whistled inwardly, wow, what an interesting show.

"But chief, that boy is so strong! It was likely that he was at the 7th level" a timid voice sounded.

Liana unbending her intention to directly break through, it would only drain her energy.

"It doesn't look like I'm using that?" Liana smiled, she went inside silently, looking for a place where the loot was stored.

"Meet" Liana put it into her dimension room, then she darted away out of the cave, and smashed the cave entrance.

"Alright, let you rot in there" Liana spread the green powder, and used the wind to get the powder into the crevices of the rocks.

"Well, I think this is enough" Liana turned around, she was about to go straight back to the palace, but her thoughts were on Aelius.

The child with black hair with a blue gradation at the end of his hair, his eyes beads are blue as clear as crystal that looks sharp.

"... I'll meet him for a while" Liana used a teleport, going towards the meadow the last time she came.

...

Aelius swung his sword with a cold face, however, his mind raged.

The child he had met less than two weeks ago was always interfering with his thoughts, Aelius swung his sword horizontally and then stuck it to the ground.

"Who is that boy? Always bothering me" Aelius then sat down on the grass, a little bird peeping over his shoulder.

"Hello, how's your family doing right now?" Aelius stroked the bird slowly.

"It's good that way" Aelius smiled a faint smile.

"Bo! If anyone else saw you they would definitely think you were crazy, especially if it was a commoner" the voice of a girl who was impressed with the bell sounded.

Aelius averted his eyes, he could see this girl who was always disturbing his thoughts.

"Viona?" Aelius stood up, he patted his dirty pants.

"Well, I stopped by here for a while, you're always here I thought. Where's your house?" Liana sat herself in the grass, she took something from the space of her dimension.

"My house is on the edge of the city, I'm here to train" Aelius again sat down beside Liana after pulling out his sword.

"Without a coach?" Liana looked towards Aelius.

Aelius was silent for a moment, then he nodded.

The previous Sparrow who felt neglected opened her voice, she looked angrily at Liana as if Liana was a bully.

"Oh, hello little bird, I have grains for you" Liana showed a handful of grains in her hand.

As if never angry, the Sparrow began to eat the grains in Liana's hands.

Before long the grain in Liana's hand ran out, she picked up something wrapped in a small white cloth.

"Take it, eat with your family" Liana understood, the sparrow bit the cloth and flew away.

Aelius chuckled small, feeling funny with the interaction of the two. Liana took out something, oh, it was the fruit of Roshan Vines.

Liana gave one to Aelius, "Here eat, it's good to restore your lost stamina"

Aelius received the fruit, and immediately ate it.

Actually the fruit of Roshan Vines is not only good for magicians, but it is indeed more effective for magicians, such as knights, if he eats it his stamina will be immediately re-filled.

Don't take things from strangers or people you don't really know.

Aelius completely ignored this sentence, when he was near Liana, he always felt safe, his heart as if telling him to just trust the girl beside him.

One fruit is finished, can Aelius feel his stamina began to recover little by little.

"Thank you" Aelius said without looking at Liana, he felt a little embarrassed to say it.

"Thank you back" Liana smiled sweetly at Aelius.

"I'm sure you're not from here, are you? Moreover, the familiar who was with you earlier said you slipped away" Aelius opened the conversation.

"I'm from around here, yeah ... I wasn't allowed to go out, even though they didn't care for me" Lian replied, her voice softened in the last sentence.

Aelius' ears were quite sharp, he heard Liana's words clearly and turned his head.

Liana simply smiled, as if she had never said anything wrong before.

[Son, you're here apparently, who is he?]

A familiar voice to Liana rang out, she looked up and looked at a floating squirrel.

"Uncle El!!" Liana stood up, Leonel down on Liana's shoulders.

[You haven't answered Uncle's question, son]

Leonel looked at Liana slightly sharply, Liana scratching her nape awkwardly.

"He's Viona Uncle's friend, his name is Aelius" Liana replied as she gave the code to Leonel.

"Hello Uncle, My name is Aelius, I am a friend of Viona" although confused Aelius still introduced himself and lowered his head, giving his greetings.

[Well, Uncle thought you didn't have Viona's friends, it turns out there, it's late in the afternoon, your father and brothers will be home soon]

Liana looked up, sure enough, the sky started to change color.

"Well Uncle, Lius, I'll say yes? See you later" Liana smiled, then disappeared from there with Leonel.

"See you too, Viona" Aelius smiled faintly, he looked up, it's time for him to go home too.

"What kind of auntie is cooking today?" Aelius walked home, during the journey, a faint smile never faded from his face.

...

"Huaah! It's time to take a shower" Liana stretched her body, she picked up the towel and also the dress she was going to wear.

Just as Liana opened the door, someone was already standing before that door.

"Welcome back, Miss" Liana looked up, then scattered herself in an embrace.

"Yeahya Elena!! Where have you been all this time? I thought she sent you to the battlefield" Elena had cold sweat on her forehead, it was even worse than the battlefield.

Elena stroked Liana's hair gently, "I'm fine Miss, let me help you to take a bath"

Liana pushed Elena slightly away, "No need, I can take a bath myself" and then Liana ran small into the bathroom.

Elena chuckled amusedly, Her Young Miss grew more mature in just less than two weeks after she stayed.

Kyuu! [Elena you're back!]

Elena turned her head, she could see a red ferret leaping towards her, and was caught directly by Elena.

"Ah, no Miss Liana, no you're the same" Elena paused her words for a moment.

Elena stabbed Felix in the stomach slightly.

Kyuu kyuu [Yes, you can say that]

As if understanding Felix's words, Elena smiled, then she placed Felix right on her shoulders.

"It's good that like that, it seems like Young Miss, no, I should call her Princess now, she must miss my cooking, don't you think Felix?"

Elena started to step foot into the kitchen, and by the way it was still in the main castle, the castle that was being built was not finished, maybe three weeks until the castle was finished.

Kyuu kyu [Of course, she always complains about wanting to eat your cooking]

Elena chuckled, and continued to continue her footsteps into the kitchen. Some chefs were busy preparing dinner for the Emperor's family.

The emperor and the princes would return soon, and they were all working busy.

Hearing the door open, almost all the chefs turned their eyes, looking at a servant they had never seen.

"Are you the new waiter here?" a female chef approached Elena, Elena looked towards the female chef and then shook her head.

"No, I'm the Princess' personal servant" Elena dropped Felix off and told him to come out first.

The dark brown chef's eyes glowed, staring at the other chef who was seen listening to the conversation he had with the Princess' personal servant.

"What are you guys doing? Get on with your work soon! The Emperor will be home soon, will you bear the consequences when the Emperor finds out that dinner is not ready yet?!"

All the chefs then went back to cooking, the female chef turned her eyes back.

"Hello, my name is Reina, what's your name? What are you gonna do here? And can you tell me a little about the Princess?" finding the question in succession, Elena then smiled awkwardly.

"Greetings to Reina too, my name is Elena, I intend to make dinner for the Princess, not disbelief in the main castle kitchen, but I just want to after leaving for more than a week"

Elena started to step on her feet, going into the kitchen deeper.

"It's nice to meet you, so apparently, then what is the Princess' favorite food? I was very curious" Reina followed Elena who was preparing to cook.

Elena looked around and found that the charcoal there was starting to run out, Elena then inevitably had to use a bit of stored mana to make fire.

Whuss!

Reina widened her eyes, the Princess's personal servant is an element controller?! He could sense that Elena was a user of mana body, in other words a knight.

"Ah right, the Princess usually does not pick the food, she does not like sweet food, and she likes meat balls the most"

Elena started cooking, it only took a few minutes for elena to prepare the ingredients and let the flame burn in the furnace.

"I thought that children of the Princess' age liked sweet foods, but the Princess did not like that, did the Princess have any food allergies? Like shrimp or seafood?"

Elena glanced at Reina for a moment, "Luckily nothing, so the Princess is free to eat anything, as long as it is clean, healthy and also nutritious" Elena returned to focusing on her cooking.

"You know Elena, you're very lucky to be the Princess's personal servant, I originally intended to register as the Princess' personal servant, but I can't" Reina had a mysterious smile.

Elena just kept quiet, she started putting some flavoring and salt into her cooking.

"By the way, was the weasel a familiar to the Princess? I've heard rumors that the Princess has a familiar" Reina again asked.

"Yes, that was the familiar Princess" Elena confirmed Reina's thought, she started to turn off the fire by stopping to channel mana.

"Well, that's so cute, the Princess is indeed talented" Reina smiled proudly, as if Liana was her child.

"I'm sure you'll be more surprised to know that the Princess is a user of two mana at once" Elena smiled, she moved her cooking from the pan to the plate.

"Eh, how can you make these meat balls in such a short time? Also I'm sure there's no ground meat in this kitchen" Reina looked at the meat balls on the plate.

She was sure Elena had cooked the stir-fried mushrooms instead of meat balls.

"Ah, I've prepared those meat balls before and it's still warm" Reina nodded stiffly at Elena's explanation.

Brak!

"Hey is the cooking not ready yet?! The emperor had already come home and had just finished bathing!! Get it done if it's not done!! Don't make the Emperor wait!!" butler broke down the kitchen door.

"Ready! The cooking is done!" the entire chef answered.

"It's good that way" the butler closed the kitchen door loudly.

"Haih, she's always been like that at work, it's almost broken that door became a victim of her violence" Reina complained.

"She's not a bad person" Elena started to pick up the trolley and put her food there.

"Where is the dinner for the Emperor? Let me take her" Elena looked at the entire cook in the kitchen.

Reina looked in amazement at Elena, some maids who had recently apprenticed or never served the Emperor would be frightened, but Elena was not, who in fact only served the Princess only.

Don't know if Elena is the former personal knight of the late empress.

Reina took out some prepared dishes with food on it, she placed them on the trolley.

"Take it to the Emperor's room, during this week more the Emperor always ate in his room accompanying the Princess, really sweet treatment" Reina smiled amusedly.

Elena simply smiled, she then simply nodded and went towards the Emperor's room.

Kyuu kyu kyuuang [Elena you're finally done]

Felix started following Elena's footsteps, Elena lowered her head and slightly smiled looking at Felix.

On Liana's side, she sat in the front seat of the same dining table for over a week with a tired face.

"Patience baby, I'm sure the waiter is on his way here" Aaron broke Liana's hair into disarray.

Liana was just silent, she was actually a little hungry, yet she was tired from something else.

"What a bitch, how can there be an insect with four pairs of hairy legs in the bathroom? And also it was huge" Liana folded both hands and drowned her face.

"What's wrong with this kid?" Aaron has an anxious face.

Tok tok!

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, dinner is ready" Liana still drowned her face even though she knew who was behind the door.

"Come inside" Aaron was still looking at Liana who was not as usual.

Elena went inside with the trolley, her gaze focused on Liana who drowned her face between the folds of the hands.

"Elena, just put that there" Aaron looked at Elena for a moment and then refocused on Liana.

Felix who was behind Elena jumped onto the table and was beside Liana's head.

Kyuu kyuu? [Liana what's going on? Did you just meet a spider or something?]

Felix knew very well with Liana's temperament, Liana would become even more tired when meeting spiders.

Liana suddenly lifted her face and took Felix's body with her hands and shook it violently.

"Huaa Felix!! That is huge!! Why is it there!!" Liana shook Felix's body violently, Felix started to get dizzy and nauseous.

"Mr Princess, please don't shake Felix like that, look at his undead face" Elena tried to help Felix out of Liana's grip.

Liana took off Felix and turned to stand and hugged Elena tightly.

"Yeahya Elena!! How could there be such a huge spider?! And even that was in the bathroom!!" Elena started to feel her clothes wet.

Liana cried, Elena stroked Liana's hair to calm Liana, Aaron who heard Liana became more hysterical approaching Liana.

He took Liana's body and carried it, patting Liana on the back.

And this chapter is closed with Liana who is hysterical due to her trauma of spiders.
