3 3 Remembering a Time

After a while Prince Shem Theodorus looked for ahead, after he had looked at Abraham and Adaline who were riding horses until their figures disappeared from his sight. Shem's memories were swirling and unable to deceive himself. He left and pulled over for a moment. He was drinking water. His throat was thirsty, and his soul was empty. The lover who fills his heart is to be one of the main targets of this war. He imagined the beauty when he first met the girl when he was both in his teens. At that time, the father, King Theophylus, was visiting a kingdom where the news was heard that the kingdom had discovered vast natural resources in the form of coal and oil. Because he wanted to know the news, he took his Crown Son with him. In addition to introducing long journeys, the Prince must also know about the King's activities because he will be the successor of his father.

"Drive faster Shem. The day seems to be raining soon," asked the King in a forest as he was on a trip.

"I'm fast, Daddy," replied the teenager Shem who was then still fourteen years old.

"The more spurred Shem, still not fast! Come on, I have often asked you to ride, you should be getting better," grumbled his father, in the middle of the palace party that was about to arrive at the kingdom they were aiming for.

"Where are we, Dad?" asked Shem again

"We are going to the Serafin Kingdom, and want to negotiate about their natural resources."

It looks that from several hundred meters ahead, there are majestic palace buildings that are piled up and are seen stretching to the side. So magnificent which is dominated by a sharp red paint and a little bright color on the edges of the palace.

"Are we going to enter the great palace, Father?" asked Shem.

"Of course, we will have a meeting between kings." replied the king.

King Theophylus' party had arrived and was stopping at the door of the palace. They waited for the Serafin Palace guards to open it. Because like other palaces. The guard will be very tight at the main gate of a royal palace.

"Tell me who came outside the palace?" exclaimed the doorman guard Serafin.

"Tell your king, the royal legion of Sadrach has come to fulfill its promise." King Theophylus half shouted so that his voice could be heard through the doors of the palace so large and so high.

Not long after that the large door opened. Make all Sadrach Kingdom members enter and are invited to go to the meeting room. King Theophylus got off his horse and was followed by all the other groups. There were the King's advisers, the Commander-in-Chief, the palace resource expert, and the palace negotiator as well as several bodyguards who participated.

They were warmly welcomed by King Serafin, King Ignatius and Queen Librivia. Those great guests were directed to a room that had been prepared for long talks and accompanied by many of these extraordinarily delicious dishes. Prince Shem was amazed that Serafin's Palace was a little different from his own. There are several parts of the garden that are shaped in such a way. One plot contains flower gardens of various colors and kinds, the next one is filled with ornamental trees which he did not find in his palace at all. Various kinds of trees from the largest and smallest are all there. Unintentionally he followed through the beauty until he entered farther from the room where the meeting took place. He was increasingly led by a look of interest in the garden that was like a plantation.

"Waoow ... cool, there is a plantation in the middle of the palace? Very cool and beautiful," the teenage Shem swirled around satisfying his gaze at all corners of the garden.

Without knowing it, behind the tree there was a teenage girl who had been stalking him from the beginning. The girl swung her slingshot with a sharp gaze, to hunt down the target and was ready to throw the gravel from the slingshot rubber that she was pulling and ready to slide towards the target.

"Siuuuuut!"

"Ooow !!," Shem shouted when a pebble hit his back neck.

Shem immediately turned his head in all directions wondering where the pebble came from so that it could firmly hit his neck. He felt pain.

Not to mention finding the answer to his question, came the second attack. the pebble hit his head. Shem shouted louder as he felt the pain from the first throw of the pebble. The girl with the slingshot was seen hiding behind a tree, laughing and covering her mouth. She hid so as not to be caught. she continued to tease a guest she did not know. She screamed and laughed incessantly. And Shem started to hear someone laughing.

"Who are you! Watch out if I find ,, I'll beat you!" he grumbled softly. Because he could not possibly be angry or shout at the palace of the person who was an important relation of his father.

Shem pretended to return to stare in amazement at the shady trees. The girl appeared, then was about to attack Shem again with a slingshot in her hand. Shem immediately turned around and it was true. He found a girl half body hiding behind a large tree. but his head and hands were real to his eyes.

"Hey !!! Who is that ?!" Shouted Shem moving his index finger towards the slingshot girl.

The girl who was suddenly shocked. Standing upright and silent keeping his slingshot behind her waist. She glared not expecting to be caught by her prey. The girl immediately ran for protection from the anger of her prey.

"Hey !! Wait !!" Shem pursued him quickly. It was a little girl! Watch out you, huh ?! I will beat it. Shem thought to himself. He ran and chased with full force. He wanted to repay the pain of being hit by the pebble earlier.

"Hey !! You wear a dress but you dare attack me !! Here, I beat you !!" shouted Shem then.
