"Miss Elizabeth...wouldn't it be nice to wear this brown dress wrapped in gold?" Morgan said hesitantly, the princess just sighed lazily while still wearing her underwear. "Come on miss, even though you like the simple type of dress, but you have to maintain your dignity as a princess, right?" Without lingering, I immediately handed her the brown gold dress.

Elizabeth's face looked resistant but her dear maid didn't care and forced her to wear the dress she had chosen. After spending several hours getting dressed, Morgan was finally called by one of the maids to come out of the Princess' room.

"Did you call me?" The maid smiled happily, "Her Highness Miss Jenette summoned you to see her," said the maid. Mogan was surprised but she was happy that she could meet the Queen quickly.

Morgan smoothed her clothes and hair to look presentable when she met the Queen.She walked down the corridor with gold and diamonds on every wall, making the girl stunned at the glittering knickknacks.She walked into the dining room with a palpitating feeling, she put both arms across her chest to catch her breath.

"Alright...nice image" The girl smacked her cheeks lightly then opened the door that connected her to the dining room, as Morgan opened the door her eyes went to the long table with food arranged neatly on it, not forgetting the beautiful candles and blue roses decorating the table. Velvet layers were seen decorating each bench placed in each row around the long table.

The queen sat on the main bench while eating her favorite cake, she looked at Morgan from a distance and motioned for the girl to come closer to her. Morgan who realized the code from the queen immediately walked in, she closed the door and immediately walked formally standing to the right of the queen.

"Your Majesty...did you call me-?" Morgan was mesmerized by the queen's beautiful face, she could not take her eyes off the woman in front of her, the woman looked like a princess in a fairy tale. "I heard you are a new worker and become my Princess's personal maid? It is rare for Elizabeth to appoint someone as her personal maid, ah...no...this is the first time I guess?" The queen placed her index finger on her chin while looking up at the ceiling of the building in a joking manner.

"I am honored to have the confidence of Miss Elizabeth, and you are right...I am Miss Elizabeth's personal maid and have only been working here for four months..." Morgan said in a very awkward tone, her voice sounding shaky.

"You must be doing very well, what's your name, dear?" The queen's voice almost made Morgan melt because of its very melodious and affectionate rhythm. "So-sorry...I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Morgan, Morgan Wolfhard..." Morgan wore an embarrassed expression and bowed politely beside the queen.

"Geez don't be so formal, just relax girl I won't bite~"The queen smiled mischievously and was only met with a formal chuckle from Morgan. "Since you are my daughter's personal attendant, I would like to see for myself the person Elizabeth has chosen...oh, you may sit beside me dear" The queen pointed to one of the empty stools beside the table and told Morgan to sit down.

Morgan nodded politely and sat on the bench suggested by the Queen, "Want some cake?" said the Queen, "Ah...no need to bother Your Majesty..." Morgan shook her head softly. "Hm...would you like some tea?" The Queen said with her sweet, alluring smile, Morgan wanted to refuse but felt that she had to accept. "I guess tea...just one glass" The Queen smiled happily and poured a glass of tea into a gold-lined cup and handed it to Morgan.

"Haah...it feels so good to have a relaxing chat like this," said the queen as she looked out the window that connected directly to the cityscape of the Dalezya Kingdom. "So, let me continue with you Morgan" The queen looked away from the window and looked at Morgan with a deep gaze.

"So far from the reports of your superiors that you do have very good potential in anything, even you can get along very quickly...hmm...and also according to the reports I got, besides being an expert in the household field you are also an expert in the field that requires muscle strength, seems like you are a strong girl huh?" The queen spoke softly and Morgan gave her a shy smile.

"About that...because I have been taught since childhood to be independent and can take care of my own problems, about my strength...well honestly maybe it's just a bonus that I get for working hard" Morgan said awkwardly. The Queen smiled and supported her head with her left arm, "Hmm, is it really like that? You don't seem to be an ordinary citizen, I can feel your magic energy flowing in every vein in your body, dear," said the Queen while playing her index finger in the air.

Morgan was quite surprised that the Queen could see a person's energy flow so easily but she returned to her normal demeanor. "It's true that I have the ability to control magic and such, but I don't think it's necessary in this job..." Morgan said in an awkward tone.

"That's right, and my purpose in calling you here is for promotion," said the queen casually as she sipped the hot tea in the cup she was holding. "Eh-? Promotion...?" Morgan's expression was full of confusion with her eyes bulging. "As I said, you will be promoted! I will give you an assignment and of course, your position too...will be slightly changed" The Queen stood up in her beautiful brown dress, she walked towards the backyard door connected to the dining room.

Morgan got up from her chair and walked after the Queen from behind, the Queen stood right in front of the door and turned around to face the girl behind her. "First of all, let me explain first so that you don't get confused, the reason for me to raise your position is because you have good performance and potential that attracts my attention, it's a pity if such potential is ignored, right? So...I will give you the position of the holy knight of Elizabeth's private kingdom and mine~" The Queen gave a mischievous smile and looked at Morgan with a look as if she wanted to pounce.

Morgan seemed to have a momentary error in her head and daydreamed for a few minutes at the Queen's words, "Ah...what?" she said softly. The Queen laughed out loud but returned to her elegant demeanor. "Ekhem...you must be feeling confused huh? I'm sorry, I have been lacking people who can guard the palace...no offense, but...I lack the strength in this matter."

"But...don't you already have a lot of knights out there? They seem to be very strong" Morgan tilted her head with a flat face, this time her tone sounded small and heavy. "You're right, but what I mean is knights who have strong magic potential, to be honest I used to have a personal guardian knight...but he fell due to an infectious disease. And I see you all this time, even though you are a woman...but I believe you are very strong Morgan."

".... "Morgan was silent, she was confused by the Queen's request and tried to rethink her words. "Your Majesty...I-" The Queen realized the confusion of the girl behind her and immediately moved to hold the girl's shoulders. "I am not forcing you, but I will raise your rank...becoming a knight is your choice, ohh I will also give you more salary!"

Morgan chuckled and gave a smile to the Queen "Thank you Your Majesty...then I must excuse myself as Princess Elizabeth has asked me to accompany her to an event" The Queen nodded gently.Morgan bowed respectfully before turning around and walking out of the dining room, she was quite lost in her own thoughts and continued to walk down the beautiful and fragrant palace hallway.

Arriving at the door of the Princess' room, Morgan saw Elizabeth's face, which looked sad and annoyed. "Looks like...she's cranky-?" Morgan thought. "Miss...sorry to keep you waiting so long" Morgan chuckled and Elizabeth immediately pulled Morgan's arm to get into her room, "Come on, come on! Change your clothes we have to look nice and pretty!"

Meanwhile outside the kingdom where the Knights were guarding and practicing, Fate was practicing his sword skills with a wooden puppet, his body was full of sweat in addition to the hot sun making his even more tired. "I don't know if I have to practice all this time?!" he said annoyed while shouting a little.

"You can't be like that Fate-kun~" said a man with a brown mane who suddenly nudged Fate's shoulder, his name was Mark. "Huh?" Fate gave a confused and annoyed look, of course he was a little irritated by his friend's behavior. "As a knight protector of the kingdom, we must train and be strong, there is no tiredness here~" Mark leaned against a tree trunk while drinking a glass of water.

Fate was getting annoyed with his friend's behavior and chuckled arrogantly "Oh? I was lectured by a dregs knight who never even got a ration to run a mission out of the kingdom? How funny" Fate mocked with a smug tone.

"You just teased me huh-?" said Mark in a snappy tone, "Huh? no, who is teasing you" Fate stuck out his tongue while rolling his eyes. "tck even though I am more senior than you, you junior has no manners" Fate who listened to her *senior*'s words and immediately laughed out loud, "Oh right senior? Even in the last four months I have a rank equivalent to someone who has worked as a palace knight for three years" Fate continued to make fun of his senior while pointing at Mark's face without guilt.

"Agh you're so noisy! I'm more senior than you anyway! Be polite to me" Mark said in an annoyed tone. "No way, too lazy to do it" Fate rolled his eyes and threw his wooden sword to the ground then picked up his gray coat and entered the mansion. He walked down the corridor and passed a man who looked about his age, had bright purple eyes and fine white hair that was blown by the wind, the man walked past Fate with a flat face and climbed the second floor.

Fate stared at the man for a while until he saw the commander (August Vermillion) of his troops come out of the study. "Hey old man, is that the new kid?" Fate said in a flat tone.

"Hm? oh you mean Lucas? he just volunteered as a knight this morning, before that I told him to show his abilities, I didn't expect that kid to be so talented and also he was very good at sword art, and I put him on a team with you." Said the Commander in a stern tone while walking past Fate's surprised body.

"Huh?" Fate raised one eyebrow and gave the commander an annoyed look. "You need to get along, after all, you're both new here, and call me Fate!"

"Lazy" Fate walked up the stairs in a teasing tone and made him way to his room.
