“Why doesn't he accept me?” Teresa cried uncontrollably, she was so devastated because she had been rejected by the person she loved.
“Everyone will feel the same feelings as you. Sometimes they pretend to be strong and don't show their weak side in public." The masked person informed.
“…..” Teresa continued to drown in her sadness.
Several hours later.
William is still in the castle or king's study. Seeing a mysterious person in the sky carrying his queen.
"Queen!"
“…..” William's shout made the masked person turn towards him and descend from the sky.
"Queen..." William saw his queen sleeping in the arms of a mysterious person.
Several royal soldiers and magicians immediately surrounded them.
“No need to worry, your queen is fine. Can I hand her over to you? Mr. William…”
“….” William was surprised that the mysterious masked person knew his name.
"Sorry, I can't carry you. Can you take our queen to her room?” William asked, he felt that there was no evil intention from the person in front of him.
The man followed William's request, after laying Queen Teresa on the bed. William and the onlookers were asked not to tell.
At another place.
“Did you guys feel the great power just now?” King Ligt wanted to be sure.
"I feel it," Lina informed.
"But who has that much power?" Neii was so curious.
"Is this the strength of the three of them?" King Ligt concluded his thoughts.
“….” When confusion and curiosity make thinking cornered. One of them saw Nesia coming out of the room.
"What do you need, the king call me?" Nesia was so surprised.
"Do you know their strength?" The king wanted to know.
“I couldn't divulge that information, even if I knew it,” Nesia told them.
“If you want to know for sure, fighting them directly is the right answer.”
“If that's all, then I want to go.”
"Thank you, you can go." King Ligt didn't mind Nesia's words.
Nesia immediately left the three of them with a slightly annoyed face, heading outside the royal palace.
"You took so long,"
“There was a slight disturbance, they asked me to provide information regarding the strength of masters Vail, Rii, and Cini,” Nesia said.
“Did you tell them?” Kila was so curious and became serious.
"Of course not," Nesia answered with a skeptical face.
"Come on everyone, he asked us to head to the Trus kingdom." Asino reminded them.
"But what 's the problem, Mr. Vail told us to stay in the Trus kingdom?" Nesia was so curious.
“Whatever it is, we'll get the answer when it's there,” Kila said.
The three of them immediately left the Gerna kingdom and headed for the Trus kingdom, using flying magic.
In the morning.
"Thank you for the food."
“Prince, Mr. Rii, Mr. Cini I—”
"Mr. William, you just have to call our names," Cini asked William not to speak formally.
“Thank you, then... Because you are now living in our residence, I want you to obey the existing rules," William informed.
"Of course, we know that we're staying here," Rii informed them of their situation.
“You are too much, but thank you. We would like to add special regulations.” William informed.
“Adding special regulations?” The three of them were confused.
"Last night my wife and I negotiated to adopt you all as our adopted children," William informed.
“Sorry if we ask, but what is the reason? Haven't we ever met at all?" Rii was so curious.
“I don't know if this can be an excuse. Aren't you people who have lived for a thousand years, you also often wander."
“And isn't having a reason to go home just what you need, in this world?”
William told them the reason.
“Cini and I have no problem with that, but it's different with Vail,” Rii told his friend's condition.
“I think there's no problem with that,” Vail informed.
“This is the first time we have parents in this world,” Cini said.
“That means this is the second time for Vail?” Jei wanted to make sure.
“That's right, mother,” Vail confirmed his adoptive mother's words.
Hearing Jei being called mother made her lonely heart so cheerful and happy.
"Father, Mother, I want to ask permission to come to Lara," Vail asked permission.
“Sure...but you have to come back after the afternoon.” William was so happy.
"Rii, Cini... I'll leave the rest to you."
"Okay."
"Reha, can you accompany me?"
"Of course Mr. Vail."
Reha, who happened to want to ask for time, accepted Vail's invitation. On the way to the restaurant, Reha asked permission to leave Leiha's group.
“Allow me to leave this group, the reason. I want to live a normal life and have a family, I have also given a letter of resignation to Miss Jei and Mr William."
"It doesn't matter, you deserve peace and happiness to live your life." Vail didn't mind Reha's wishes.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Vail," Reha was so happy if she wasn't being challenged.
“But sorry, I have to manipulate your memories regarding this secret member. Just the memory of being a Leiha member.” Vail informed.
"No problem Mr. Vail I accept it, so when are you going to do it?" Reha wants to make sure.
"When I come back Lara will have a family, I shouldn't have to involve her anymore. And it just so happens that you asked to come out, I think I can do it now.” Vail informed.
Upon arrival at the restaurant, Vail asked one of the waiters to call Lara.
“Master Vail, old sister. Good morning…” Lara greeted the two and came over to them.
"Are they here yet?" Vail wanted to make sure that Kila, Asino, and Nesia were there.
"They're on the third floor," Lara said.
"Okay, before we go there. Has the room been prepared?”
Lara knew what he meant, she immediately took Vail to an empty room that had been prepared to manipulate their memories.
Twenty minutes later, Reha and Lara fell asleep because their memories were manipulated.
“Have you guys waited too long?”
“Mr Vail.” Nesia saw Vail coming towards them.
"Sit down, I'll explain to you," Vail asked Nesia to sit back down.
“….” Vail set up a barrier to create a quiet area.
“Last night, the three of us were in the Mans kingdom. There I saw Bado, and also the person we met at Edward's residence," Vail informed.
“For a person who claims to be the emperor, he is just an ordinary person who was used and changed.”
“Is the visible power yours?” Asino wanted to be sure.
"We did use force to fight, but not to that extent," Vail informed.
“Before that Vail, did that woman approach you?” Asino wanted to be sure.
"That is not important-"
“This is very important to me you know!?” Asino was so annoyed.
"..." Seeing Asino angry and annoyed with Vail made Nesia and Kila very confused.
At the same time, the protector has reached the time limit. And Lara and Reha had woken up and came to them.
“Mr Vail…”
"Is one of them the woman who approached you?!" Asino glanced at Lara and Reha.
“Enough Asino, they have nothing to do and it's not them.” Vail straightened out.
“I don't believe it…” Asino became annoyed.
“What happened.” Reha was so curious.
“They fought because Vail was approaching another woman, without her knowledge,” Kila said.
“Could it be because of that?” Reha gathered a little something from Mr. William.
"You know something?" Asino was so curious.
“Reha, don't tell—”
“Shut up Vail!”
"Ahem, then let's discuss the purpose," Vail told them why they had been called.
“I would like to ask the three of you, to become queen Teresa's shadow guards. And…"
Four hours later, Reha was taken home. When he was in the house, he saw the queen sitting waiting.
Reha came out in such a hurry, lucky to catch up with Vail and the others.
"I didn't expect the queen to be at Mr. William's residence." Vail was so shocked.
"It's only natural for a queen to see her knights return home after war." Queen Teresa informed.
"Where did that sentence come from?" Rii was amazed by Teresa's words.
“Secret…” Teresa was a little proud.
"Teachers Nesia, Kila, and Asino...Long time no see, even though it's been thirteen years but still the same as before." Teresa is so amazed by those who stay young.
"Although we've already met in the Gerna Kingdom, this is our first personal meeting with you."
“Thank you very much for asking for news, Your Majesty the Queen.” Nesia is so honorable.
"So what-"
Knock. Knock. Knock.
"I'll open the door," Reha informed and walked towards the door.
“….” When the door opened, she saw Noa and his wife coming with their child.
When Noa entered, he did not expect that there would be guests and the queen at his master's residence.
“Mr. Vail, teacher Rii, teacher Cini…are you here?!” Noa was so surprised.
“….” Noa didn't expect that the person who had been sealed would reappear.
"Grandpa!" A little boy ran over to William.
"Rini," Teresa greeted her best friend.
"Queen, why are you here?!" Rini was so surprised.
"What about the meeting, you canceled it?"
“No, I delayed it by just running away.” The Queen said confidently and smiled.
"Why do you take actions that do not reflect leaders in general," Rini complained about her friend.
"Sorry to have a selfish leader like me," Teresa admits her mistake.
"Mr. William, Miss Jei...we will borrow the sideyard," Vail said and came out followed by several people.
Noa felt an awkward atmosphere and saw her parents so confused.
"Queen, have you worked up the courage to ask Mr. Vail to put a ring on you?" Rini was so curious, that she didn't see the ring on her finger.
“I did, but Mr. Vail rejected me,” Teresa told her without any concealment.
“I thought, I did it wrong or rushed it. But after getting the rejection answer, I realized. No matter how hard I fight, the prince will not like me.”
“….” Jei, who heard that her queen had been rejected, felt very guilty because she couldn't do anything.
"That's not true, maybe because of the timing— " Rini stopped talking because Noa pulled her ear.
"Rini, don't make the queen remember something that isn't important." Noa scolds his wife.
"It's okay, Noa. Besides, I have accepted the fact that Mr. Vail has no feelings for me.” Teresa informed.
"Then my goal here is because I want to know Mans' kingdom."
"Sorry if I interrupt, what does that have to do with the kingdom?" William was so curious.
"When I went to your residence yesterday, I asked Mr. Vail to help the Mans kingdom from the hands of the empire," Teresa informed.
"Don't know whether to be grateful or not, what's clear is that I'm proud of you Vail." Asino was so happy because Vail rejected Teresa's proposal.“But you missed a good chance to become a king,” said the missed opportunity."Lina has indeed forgotten you, but it looks like it's my turn to be your fiancé," Asino informed."What do you want to talk about ?" Vail was confused."....." Rii, Cini, Kila, and Nesia only saw them from the courtyard hall.“I feel bad for Vail,” Cini said he thought."...Nesia, do you have a fiancé?" Rii wanted to make sure.“All of a sudden, I haven't had one because I'm forty.” Nesia talks about her age, even though her physical body is that of a teenager."Then..." Rii stood up from her seat and knelt in front of Nesia.“Will you have a family with me?”“….” Nesia's face turned slightly red, she had just realized that a man had proposed to her.Nesia couldn't say a word, she just stretched out her hand as a sign that she accepted Rii's proposal."...." Cini
King Ligt and Neii agreed to Vail's words, they immediately issued an order prohibiting touching water.“Cover all wells and block all transportation routes for traders, as well as…block those who approach the river.”All soldiers complied and did as they were ordered.“Call some wizards, if they can get enough water from their magic to fill a large bowl. You will be given one gold piece…”All the magicians marched into the royal castle to sell their power."Forbid all residents from leaving their homes when it's raining, and close their doors and windows."“If there is a leak in the residence, you are ordered to inform the king.”When it rains, all the buildings are tightly closed, and no one opens the doors or windows.The system provided meant that the epidemic could be overcome for a while, but famine hit the kingdoms that implemented the quarantine system.Several months later."Queen, you must eat," Rini asked her queen to open her mouth."I don't have the appetite to eat, Rini,"
"I don't understand at all," Teresa was so confused.The sentence she heard from the person she was talking to made Teresa even more curious. Another world, an alternative world, these two things make him someone full of curiosity.“I'm sorry for making you into a curious woman, but you're not allowed to know what an alternative world is or anything like that.”"For now-"“Give me one knowledge!” Teresa interrupted her interlocutor's words."...then consider these two apples to be different worlds."“….” Teresa was surprised by the presence of two apples on their table."The apple in my left hand is the world you are in, then the apple in my right hand is the world Hana is in."“If I rewind time carelessly, then a change of events will occur. Not that you would know, but the problem that should have happened did not exist.”“Can you eat the apple?”Teresa was presented with an apple which was in the left hand of her interlocutor.“….” Teresa took the apple and ate it, only taking her t
While Cini was still complaining. Rii saw two squads of soldiers who would be sent to the western border, to stop attacks from the Ega kingdom."Just stop, for now, they are already so worried," Vail informed.“I agree with you. I feel guilty for just leaving Nesia behind." Rii agreed with his friend's words.The three of them decided to return.Meanwhile, in the throne room of Gerna's palace, the three demon kings became busy defending the western border."They are stubborn," Neii was a little annoyed but also challenged by the Ega kingdom troops.“We'd better attack—”Suddenly, time around them stopped."This again, is this the work of the Narvas kingdom?" King Ligt was so surprised and a little annoyed.“….” Surprisingly, a figure suddenly appeared behind them."We meet again," said the mysterious figure."Who are you?" Neii was so shocked.“To think you guys forgot, but put that aside.” The figure didn't care about this."I came to tell you something." Said the figure."Tell us…?"
Teresa wants to go home but is reluctant to say so. Until she knows what sacrifices are required.“What is the sacrifice of this?” Teresa asked with great curiosity and curiosity.“My strength..and me.” The mysterious person informed.“…..” Teresa remained silent, not understanding what he meant.“With those two things, you—”“Please stop!” Teresa's voice was so loud, rejecting this sacrifice.“You were the first to oppose, but the last to question billions of people's desire to return.” So amazed by Teresa's rejection.“…..” Teresa looked at her interlocutor and just stared. Full of objections.Teresa clenched her hands which were on the table into fists, she became annoyed."I understand now, you... have trapped me and kept me away from everyone I love," Teresa said full of anger and annoyance.“I remember the joke you said at that time. Regarding alternative worlds or other worlds. It's true, even though I don't know any other world besides the world of heroes."“Don't think that th
"There is!"“Dark circles are—”Knock. Knock. Knock.A knocking sound coming from the balcony distracted her."Knock? Especially from the balcony." She was so surprised and very curious.Knock. Knock. Knock."...." Teresa closed the book and put it on the table.Get up from the seat, and step closer to the balcony.“…..” Teresa walked, she was getting goosebumps. And a little alert about something.“No one, who knocked—”“AAa…!”They heard Jei's voice screaming in fear.“Jei?!” William, who was in the study, heard his wife's hysterical voice.William immediately left the work desk and headed for the room where his wife was.“The door won't open?!” William was so surprised and confused.“William! Help! I'm scared!" The wife's hysterical voice, which was so frightened, was heard.“AAa…!” A scream of pain was heard from behind the door that was difficult to open.Brug...!William tried to break the door as hard as possible, but the door wouldn't open.“William—”“Jei? Jei!” William hit th
“…..” Teresa and the others saw Aurora in the bright sky.Deg... Deg...They all heard a sound like a heartbeat coming from the small box on the table.“…..” Their eyes shifted to the small box."Teresa..." Rini saw her friend walking slowly towards the box.Teresa continued to walk slowly towards the box, the sound coming from the small town was heard again.“….” One of Teresa's hands slowly reached for the small box, and slowly opened it.“This…” Teresa saw a silver necklace with black gems as decoration."Queen?" Rii and the others saw Teresa take a necklace from the small box."Necklace– " Teresa's words stopped, she immediately had a vision of the object."Queen?!"“Teresa?”They all saw their queen fall unconscious for the second time. William brought his queen back to the room.“This place…” Teresa found herself back where the mysterious masked person was."...." She walked towards the garden and found the mysterious person pouring a drink into a cup."Drink it," The mysterious
"......" Noa was so surprised by his queen who seemed to be talking to someone.“…What's wrong my wife? You look restless.” Noa was very curious about the look on his wife's face."I was wondering if it would be okay for the queen to meet her ex-fiancé..." Rini said what she was worried about."All I know is that the prince—the queen's ex-fiancé was obsessed with her.""Is this the meaning of your father's request, Rini?" Noa wanted to make sure his thinking was correct."Father doesn't want Teresa's political marriage to happen again, the queen also lost her child while she was still in the womb. And…” Rini gave a flashback about Teresa's situation eight years ago.“We shouldn't talk about this, because it's not good. The Queen is your friend, so…don't talk about something you don't want her to remember.” Noa asked if his wife wanted to talk about her friend.Fifteen days later."Arya, watch your attitude...don't let your past relationship ruin your two brothers' good day."
