The Princesses Situation part 2

The Aurelia Kingdom is the strongest kingdom of the human race on the Clorius continent. The kingdom's people lived a very prosperous life and were on good terms with the neighboring kingdom. Inside the golden castle in an elegant-looking room, a girl with a beauty that would fascinate all men who saw her was swaying her legs while humming happily. She looked up at the ceiling with a big smile and blush on her face.

Knock... Knock... Knock...

There was a knock on the door followed by a man's voice.

"Freya, can I come in?" The one who knocked on the door and spoke was Leonida Aurelia, the king of the Aurelia Kingdom and the father of Princess Freya.

"Come in, father. I didn't lock the door." Princess Freya quickly got up and then sat down on her bed. King Leonida entered her room and sat on a chair near the bed.

"Did I interrupt your break?" King Leonida asked with an elegant attitude. He had golden hair similar to Princess Freya, but it was relatively short and well-groomed. Even though he is already 60 years old, he still looks young and strong because he is also the strongest knight in the Aurelia Kingdom and one of the strongest in the Clorius continent.

"Of course not, father. Is there anything you need from me?" Princess Freya shook her head and asked softly.

"It's about the masked butler. Do you know nothing about him other than what you told me?" King Leonida asked with a serious face and looked directly into her daughter's eyes.

"I don't know anything else, father. I don't know much about him either. I got to know him during the servant selection event in the Argaint kingdom, and we didn't talk much at that time." Princess Freya spoke honestly, and there was a bit of disappointment on her face.

"But why do I feel like there's something else you haven't told me yet?" King Leonida narrowed his eyes at Princess Freya. He felt that his daughter still had something to hide. He wondered what Princess Freya would say as an excuse this time.

"That's just your feelings, father. Ah, How is mother's current condition??" Princess Freya smiled playfully and diverted the conversation. Princess Freya's mother had been sick since last month. She was a Magic Queen and one of the strongest mages in the Aurelia Kingdom. She often suddenly fell ill like that, but it wouldn't last long until her condition recovered. The royal mages still don't know the cause even though they have checked on her repeatedly.

"Haa... Alright. I won't force you if you don't want to be honest. Your mother's condition is much better. It won't be long before she fully recovers." King Leonida couldn't help but sigh heavily after seeing his daughter unwilling to tell him the truth.

"Thank God, I hope mother can be healed soon." Princess Aishia breathed a sigh of relief after she heard her father's answer. He was also grateful that his father didn't ask more about Ziel. If her father kept pushing her, Princess Freya would have to say everything she knew.

"I hope so too. Freya, how are your preparations for the opening of Piqmentia Grand Academy next year? Even if you are a member of the Royal Family, you still have to register and take the academy entrance test like everyone else." King Leonida brought up the topic of the five kingdoms project.

"You don't have to worry, father. I've prepared myself. After all, there's still a year left. I will try to form my fifth magic circle and become a Magic Master." Princess Freya smiled and said confidently.

"Good! You can't make a shame the name of Aurelia Kingdom. Show the others that we are the strongest kingdom of the human race on the Clorius continent!" King Leonida nodded in satisfaction after hearing his daughter's answer.

"I will do my best, father! Princess Aishia said excitedly at the first sentence but lowered her voice at the last sentence." She also answered him thoughtfully but then smiled sweetly at the end.

"Who?" King Leonida suddenly released his aura pressure. He subconsciously lost control of his power after hearing Princess Freya's words.

"Eeh... He's nobody. I was talking nonsense before." Princess Freya smiled playfully and found an excuse to lie to her father. King Leonida glared at his daughter. But then he could only sigh after seeing Princess Freya's smile and retract the pressure.

"Alright, you can continue your break. I will go to see your mother and check her condition again." King Leonida got up from his seat and walked out of Princess Freya's room. But before the door was closed, he stopped.

"Freya, if you feel there's something you want to talk to me about, please let me know right away." King Leonida closed the door and left the room without waiting for Princess Freya's response.

"Yes, father! I'll say it if I think it's necessary. Please convey my regards to mother!" Princess Freya answered rather loudly and hoped that her father would hear it.

Not long after, Princess Freya buried herself again in her bed. Then she remembered when she was six years old. It was the beginning of her friendship with Princess Aishia and a dream that came from a prophecy.

At that time, she walked the street in the city with Aryana as her guardian knight. She ran here and there out of curiosity about what she saw. But she finally realized that she got lost in the crowd and separated from Aryana. After walking for quite a while, Princess Freya accidentally arrived at an empty house at the end of the road. An old man was sitting in a rocking chair with his eyes closed. But when Princess Freya passed in front of the house, the old man suddenly opened his eyes.

At first, Princess Freya didn't care about him and just passed in front of his place. But she stopped after hearing what the old man said.

"Princess Freya Aurelia, do you want to see your destiny?" The old man did not speak with his mouth but directly into Princess Freya's mind. Princess Freya trembled in fear and ran as fast as she could to leave the place.
