Q-six took a deep breath before speaking. "Honestly I have predicted the possibility of the perpetrators moving from the location of the attack to another area, usually I am in a separate location from Q-Three and Q-Five. I stand guard in the area closest to the area where the residents' houses were attacked." Q-Six confessed to the crown prince because surely his two friends didn't want to talk. He was ready when the crown prince punished him.

Unlike what Q-Six had feared, Andres smiled instead. He patted the shoulder of the man who was the same age as him. "I know you. You always have other thoughts that sometimes conflict with me."

Q-Six held his breath. "Sorry, I was wrong, Crown Prince. I should have focused more on carrying out your orders."

"But I can't punish you, because you guessed right. The group of people in black attacked another area that was not guarded by soldiers." Andres folded his arms in front of his chest. "I honestly guessed this too. They won't stop until t

    The scorching sun did not break the spirit of Arion who was helping the farmers to plant paddy. Arion enjoyed his activities, it even seemed like he had forgotten about finding work. During these three days, Arion took Auristela to visit the vast expanse of rice fields near the Omega forest. The farmers are very happy with Arion's help because many of their children are not interested in working in the fields or gardens because they can't stand the heat of the sun and are tired. Many young people prefer to work fishing or as waiters. Arion chuckled at the jokes of the men who devoted their lives as farmers. Auristela sat in the hut lazily, her green eyes staring at Arion flatly. She had finished helping the farmers' wives make lunch. So far, she has been able to cook rice, chop vegetables and chicken, and make chicken soup. It turned out that cooking wasn't too scary and troublesome, but she preferred hunting to cooking. She stroked the bow that was behind her back, which she carrie

    "Woah, hey goats. Nice to meet you all." Auristela greeted the goats who were eating that afternoon. The grass here always thrives on feeding them. "Hi, you are the youngest goat." Auristela was still holding the rabbit with black and white fur, and she stroked the brown goat who was standing next to her mother. Arion remembered his father's horse farm. He rarely went to the farm, but he knew how to herd horses into the barn and bathe them. "How many goats are here?" Anthoni joking with the biggest goat, scratched the goat's stomach and turned to Arion, looking at the farm with dreamy eyes. "About 20." "Many goats." Arion sat squatting next to Anthoni, and he also stroked the goat's skin. Anthoni smiled. "An-" It was very difficult for him to address the crown prince by name. "Andres' parents have died. They left a lot of gold, and Andres sold it to build this farm." He didn't lie about the crown prince's parents who had died, but he did lie about the farm. Because this farm b

    The sound of birds chirping accompanied Andres and Anthoni, who was walking towards a garden in the king's residence. There was no one along the hall, and there were only statues in the shape of wild beasts. Some lions and bears seemed to move their eyes to see and watch those who passed by. Andres glanced at a painting of a black dragon flying in the sky on one of the room's doors. Every time he saw that picture, his heart beat fast. His uncle was neither wrong nor intentional because, on the door of another room, there was also a painting of an eagle flying with its mouth biting its prey. He didn't know why his uncle chose the beast-themed sculptures and paintings. According to him, it does not match his uncle's character, who has a heart as soft as silk and wise. If citizens could enter the royal palace, they would change their perception of king Dustin. Ah no. It seemed that Andres knew why his uncle chose beasts. Because his uncle liked to hunt wild animals, he challenged hims

    Last night there were no cases of attackers at people's homes. The perpetrators seemed to be just warning them to get ready for the next attack. Several palace warriors were dispatched to guard the East. Grassland was short on soldiers. The total number of palace warriors in this country is only a quarter of the population because young people are not interested in working as palace warriors, not willing to risk their lives for the sake of the country. To anticipate something bad, palace warriors undergo very extra training and they are not allowed to die on the battlefield or while dealing with a group of people who disturb the citizens.Ĺĺ"The number of palace warriors can be counted." Almeta shook her head, very sad. Palace warriors are those who will advance to the forefront to protect the country and kingdom, but if their number can be counted by hand, how can this country fight the criminals?"Don't worry. Palace warriors who are not deployed and are assigned to guard the palace

    Auristela and Karael were shocked. Arion scratched his head that didn't itch while smiling shyly. "Sorry, I startled you." He was standing next to Auristela, watching her twin sister's face looked annoyed. One eyebrow raised. Then he looked at Karael who was quietly studying his appearance. "Karael?" Arion overheard Auristela and Karael's entire conversation, why does Karael seem to be interrogating Auristela?Karael nodded with a small smile. "You work to help farmers? Or are you a farmer?"Arion frowned. Even now Karael would interrogate him. "I work to help the farmers."Karael folded his arms across his chest. "You are pure elves, why did you choose to work here as a farmer? Wouldn't it be better if you worked on a horse farm?"Arion and Auristela's hearts stopped beating. They are shocked. Does Karael know, that they are a prince and princess of the elven kingdom, and coincidentally their father owns a horse farm?"Is it wrong to work as a farmer? Isn't a farmer very useful for

    Andres smiled broadly. His eyes were locked to see Auristela, who was five meters from him who was giving the sack to the boy. "Their clan is well known for their generosity." Andres didn't want to mention the name 'elf,' afraid Auristela and Arion heard him and approached him.Anthoni nodded. "Yeah. Like when they helped you." Anthoni was shocked when a drunk man hit him; the man did not apologize and kept walking. Anthoni clicked his tongue, annoyed. He didn't want to prolong the matter because Andres was next to him. He was afraid that the man would also hurt Andres. "But not all are like them." Anthoni continued his comments about the elven clan. "I know some of them who enjoy demeaning other clans.""Right." Andres turned around when Auristela and Arion walked away from the boy. Don't let them find out.Anthoni also turned around. The two of them were standing in front of the cake shop. "Why are we like spies?" He frowned. "We'd better head home. Before the sun goes down." He loo

    Andres looked at Emma, whose cheeks were pink and nervous. He tilts of his lips. He was a boy, and he understood why the waitress was behaving like that. "I ordered the best food here. Whatever it was. Probably the most ordered food." Andres shrugged his shoulders. Actually, he wasn't hungry, he came to this cafe just because he wanted to chat with Arion and Auristela. His stomach was already full of two pieces of bread made by Jemima, his regular baker."Me too. Whatever it is. Because I'm not a picky eater. I'll eat everything as long as it's not poison." Anthoni smiled shyly. Before becoming Andres' friend and bodyguard, he used to eat carelessly, the important thing being that his stomach was full.Emma nodded in understanding. She saw Auristela, who was eating voraciously. "How about grilled venison? Like Auristela eats."Auristela, deliberately avoided Andres and Anthoni's faces because of embarrassment; her voice that was fighting with Arion was heard outside. She turned to And

    Anthoni told Almeta to sit next to him. The chairs they sit on are elongated and can be occupied by four skinny people. Almeta pouted and Anthoni gave her half a glass of iced orange, Almeta drank it in one gulp.Andres smiled at Almeta who was snorting. Almeta knew who had made him exhausted and like a madman for looking for the two men. It must be Andres who wants to meet Arion and Auristela."Hi, Almeta." Auristela greets Almeta who smiles at her."Hi, Auristela. We meet again, shall we." Almeta is happy. Finally, she has a female friend! She is lazy with Madam Belanca because the witch often reads her mind without permission and Veloxa did not live in Grassland.Andres glanced at Arion who was stroking the dove in his hand. "When are you guys going to start work?"Arion raised his head and his green eyes stared at Andres. He thought hard to determine the day and time. "Maybe tomorrow afternoon? I'll be working from noon to evening."Andres nodded. "It's okay. Anthoni or Almeta and

Finally, King Dustin accepted the sincerity of those who wanted to show their love for him and surprise him on every birthday.King Dustin read every report that came in and listened to his advisor, who gave his opinion on all the reports that came to him.Andres shouldn't be here, sitting next to his uncle. He didn't want to lose a single piece of information entering the palace. Usually, he would know all the news from Anthoni, who would report to him at night. It was the morning and he had already had breakfast; usually, he would go straight from the palace to tour all the Grassland areas. But this morning, he was trapped here, in the king's throne room. The king wanted him to read all incoming reports, but his uncle did not ask his opinion at all. Andres gl

    Arion and Auristela's goal decided to stay in Grassland because they felt Grassland was the closest place to the elven clan and a safe place. After all, the original citizens of Grassland were humans. Although some of them were not pure humans, some were from the Abdian clan, who were humans who were bestowed with the boon of longevity. One that is originally from the Abdian clan is the royal family, and it is said that some nobles are also from the Abdian clan.Arion and Auristela just want to find a country that is comfortable for them to live in and a place where they make money. But they did not expect to meet all of them. Who are they? Andres, Anthoni, Almeta, and Madam Belanca. What made them most uncomfortable was Madam Belanca because the witch knew their identity. Even though Madam Belanca had promised not to reveal they are true identity, they didn't really believe it and were afraid that one day Madam Belanca would use their secret to threaten them or something.However, Ari

    The market was getting busier as several people gathered after hearing the screams of the person who told him he had found a thief's wallet of a mother who was shopping. Market visitors surrounded the thief. Some whispers questioned the truth of the news because the young man accused of being a thief didn't look like a thief.Andres took a deep breath. This is the most unlucky day of his life. He had already explained that he wasn't a thief; someone had bumped into him earlier and didn't know how the stolen wallet fell on the ground next to his feet. A thief hit him; he wasn't the one! But the older man wearing the green shirt didn't believe it and told him to tell the truth. Andres was innocent, so why would he lie? Just because the clothes are the same as the perpetrator!Anthoni's face turned red with anger. He glared at the older man who was accusing Andres. "Don't talk nonsense! He's not a thief! He's my friend, we've always been together since we entered the market. Don't just b

    Andres's routine every morning is walking around Grassland. Usually, he would start walking from the Northeast region, but today he wanted to start from the North region because he was in the mood to buy food. Anthoni is always worried that if Andres buys food at the market, he is afraid that the crown prince will have a stomach ache or have problems with digestion. But so far, Andres had never experienced anything like that, even though he was used to eating highly nutritious foods in the palace.Andres waited for his favorite food, which was being fried. His eyes looked around him. He pays attention to every activity of the citizens he will lead. King Dustin isn't going to give him power any time soon, and he's still too young to be a king anyway. Andres smiled at the sight of small children fighting to feed a bird."Do you remember the first time we met?" Seeing three small children laughing made Anthoni remember the past."I always remember it." Andres nodded. "I can't possibly fo

    Auristela and Arion had lived in Grassland for a long time. So far, Arion has been busy working, and Auristela has only followed her twin brother while learning to cook with the farmers' wives. Today the farmers don't want to see Arion in their fields and gardens because they know Arion needs to rest and enjoy life while still young. Because the farmers didn't want to accept Arion's presence and they worked on Andres' farm during the day, Auristela pulled Arion's hand to the market, which was in the northern area, which was a few hundred meters from their inn. Auristela has wanted to go to the market for a long time, and this morning she will not waste her chance.Auristela walked happily and a big smile formed on her beautiful face. She was happy to see all the food and products sold in the market; it felt like she wanted to taste all the food. Back in the elf clan, she was forbidden to go out of the palace alone; she always went out with her mother and sat in the horse-drawn carriag

    Auristela laughed with the goats that were standing around her. She did not know why the goats always wanted to be close to her. Like on her father's horse farm, the horses loved approaching her and inviting her to play. Ah, Auristela misses horseback riding. "Hey, you're the smallest goat. Come over here." Auristela hugged the smallest goat and stroked the belly and head of the submissive little goat.This afternoon the sky is blue. Birds flew here and there with joy, like those who were on Andres' goat farm.Auristela is busy playing with the goats while Arion is milking. Almeta chewed grilled corn while sitting on the bench, and she smiled at Auristela."Auristela," Almeta yelled. She was amazed by the two elves, who quickly became familiar with the goats. "Have you ever liked a boy?" She asks a random question. She always wanted to ask her female friend about this—a private conversation between women.Auristela frowned. Almeta's question was beyond expectation. She never thought t

    For the past few weeks, Belanca has felt happy, and her life is peaceful because she doesn't see the faces of Andres and his men and hears their conversation, which only makes her head spin. She didn't want to burden her brain after hearing their discussion. The more secrets she knows, the closer she gets to Andres, the crown prince, and she is afraid that one day Andres will threaten her with prison because she already knows all the secrets of the crown prince if she refuses to use her magical abilities to carry out Andres' plans. The first time they met, Belanca could feel the intimidating aura from Andres that brought everyone to their knees. The crown prince pretends to be weak so that he can judge everyone around him, and Andres recruits martial arts and sword experts to be his men.Andres' eyes, which were hidden behind the thin cloth that was on his mask, glanced at Belanca, who was supporting her chin. He also glanced at Anthoni, who was playing with Belanca's eagle in the cag

    Yesterday's heavy rain that occurred from afternoon to midnight made several rivers and lakes in Grassland almost overflow the water they were holding. Some rice fields are inundated with water and make the soil soft.Arion helps farmers to remove water from their fields using buckets and ensures that the soil doesn't get carried away. The farmers can only take a deep breath, and they are resigned if they experience crop failure again. Luckily there was still a lot of the wheat in the warehouse, so that they could sell half of it and the other half for their consumption."Grassland has always been like this." Mr. Smith said as he adjusted the slanted position of the wheat plant to stand back up. "It rarely rains, but when it rains, it rains very hard and sometimes causes flooding. This area has experienced flooding in the past."Auristela, who sat crouched on the edge rice field, listened to Mr. Smith, who was telling the story. Mr. Smith is 70 years old but still fit and strong. Mayb

    Chapter 26

    The elven royal palace was always quiet like any other kingdom. The elven clan only had one kingdom led by king Dawson. Elves were known as noble and perfect beings, and they had handsome and beautiful faces. Their faces are different from creatures from other clans, their faces are unique with pointy ears that add to their uniqueness. They are admired by almost all beings from other clans. Pure magic comes from them, witches learn magic spells from them, then the spells are modified by witches. But the ones who studied magic spells more deeply were the royal family and the nobles. Ordinary people only learn spells that are used to guard and protect themselves and those around them.Adena is just a mother who always misses her twins who have been away from the palace for a few days because the king–who is her husband's eldest brother–has not allowed Arion to live in the palace. Every night she would sleep in Auristela's room or in Arion's room in turn. Like it or not, her husband went
