112 Someone that I like

Seti had ordered a feast filling up the whole table the five of them were sitting on. She also did not forget to get Tria's favorite food, mushrooms. There were about four to five dishes with mushrooms.

Tria had missed eating leisurely like this, and following her example, everyone was eating happily.

"How are things in the Sun Land?" Tria asked now that her belly was full.

"Mistress, things have been quite chaotic, during the day like this, everything might seem normal, but at night, not even the imperial guards patrol around anymore," Seti said.

"What? Why? What's been happening?"

"Well we haven't been reporting it over to you, because it is not exactly related to you as a pri-," Seti cut off her words when she realized she was babbling Tria's secret in front of the stranger.

Tria laughed briefly, "He's my new guardian," she said.

Seti analyzed Hepri up and down, "Oh...good to meet you," she said then continued," What I was going to say is this new organization's purpose seem to be solely the throne."

"Oh is that so? On our way here, I heard rumors that two princes have died, it seems to be true."

"Yes, and that organization used to meet here, however, their group has increased in size, so they are now meeting in a new secret location."

Tria thought about it for a moment.

"Is it him? Is it Ra Ashir's doing?"

"Mistress, yes! You're so wise, I wanted to make you guess haha"

"Other than him, I couldn't think of anyone else, after all, he used to be someone with great power in the Land, and to have fallen so low, of course, he wouldn't just go live a normal life."

"That would have been the right thing to do though," Seti said.

"Except he's not such a righteous person. Well, as long as he doesn't come after me or my family, then he and I should have no problem, but I have a feeling it won't so simple."

"I believe he's looking for the priestess to heal his eyes," Crei reminded.

"Ah, there's that!" Tria said.

Tria thought about it and played with the idea of healing him for a large amount of money and leave him dry but she didn't care for money and she wouldn't get much satisfaction from it. She then thought of not healing him at all, but he probably wouldn't stop pestering her, and it'd the Eye Clan situation all over again.

"Argh, what to do?!" Tria said in frustration.

"Wifey, don't let these matters trouble you, let him keep looking," Crei suggested.

"True, I just came back, I need to see the children and the others, that's what I need to do."

"You haven't gone home yet Mistress? Oh, the others will be so jealous to hear that you came to see me first," she said and giggled.

"Haha, come over later, I'll see you," Tria said leaving.

"Be safe, Mistress!"

Escorting them out, Seti waved them goodbye and continued her work happily.

Looking back at Seti was Hepri, who kept on checking her out, even from in the restaurant, he wouldn't stop looking at her.

"That lady was so pretty, psst!" he said and nudged Chukah, "Is she taken already?"

Hepri's question reached Tria's ears and she turned around, surprised," You guys can do these things with normal people?"

Hepri looked at her, confused, "Y-Yeah...I think so? Wait, can we not?"

"I don't know, that's why I am asking," Tria said.

"..."

They both looked at Chukah, who was blushing suspiciously.

"Don't look at me like that, I-I believe we can, I-I mean, there is someone that I like, so if I can feel it like this then it's not impossible," Chukah stuttered and said.

"...!!!" Even Crei was surprised.

"What?! You have a crush, how come I am learning of all these things now, who is it? who is it?" Tria's girly side came out as she surrounded Chukah ready to squeeze his secrets out of him.

"N-No one!" Chukah said then disappeared.

"Suspicious! Very suspicious! Husband, do you know who it is?" Tria asked him staring at him with her big eyes.

Crei shook his head in doubt.

"Ah, that reminds me, that goddess that was looking for you-

Swoosh!

Hepri also disappeared, quickly leaving the scene, this conversation did not require his presence.

Crei scratched his head, not knowing what to do. He didn't think they'd have to discuss this matter so soon.

'What do I do? What do I say?'
