Chapter 158 : I'd love to join you for dinner.

Jiro followed Athena as she led him to his room. At first, he'd thought it was Alice but the way she spoke was gentle and sweet. Alice's, though nice to the ear had a controlling tone to it.

" Since you wanted something small, the best I could do was give you a side room between the west and north wings. And Alice will be on the other side of the hall as per your request as well ".

Jiro nodded and she went on, " On the west wing, we have the Vogs and the Fipas so hopefully we'll get along ". She stopped in front of an open door and saw Nectar's kids flying in the air and sighed, " Of course they can fly ".

Jiro saw the flying lot before Athena closed the door and continued to walk, " This is where our Lishflourian Empire Empress will be staying ". Jiro nodded, touching his ring [ My works a lot easier ]

Athena opened the door and Jiro was honestly surprised. There was a well laid bed in the corner with a table on the other side and a bookcase. There was even a small round table and two chairs with a vase filled with flowers he didn't know as a center piece.

Though it seemed simple, Jiro could tell everything in here was the best of the best. Athena gave a slight curtsey, " Forgive me Master Star reader, though you wish to be inconspicuous you are our Continent's prized gem. Anything less would be considered a slap to the face ".

Jiro sighed as he walked in, " No matter, you did listen to what I said and that alone is impressive to me ". Athena smiled, entering as well. There were two more doors on either side of the room, " The one on the left leads to a closet.

There are various styles of clothing from the five kingdoms within it and on the right is the bathroom. If you wish to, a hot bath has been drawn and a fresh set of towels set out for you. Do you have any soap and oil preferences or a preferred scent you like "?

Jiro shook his head [ She's very thorough ] " I'm fine with anything ". Athena nodded, " Then maybe rose and pine would suffice. I'll have it sent over immediately ". She left the room and just as quickly, popped back in " I forgot to ask, would you be joining us for dinner or would you prefer a solitary meal "?

Jiro smiled as he looked at her, " I'd love to join you for dinner Lady Athena ". She smiled back, obviously surprised " Very well then. I leave you to settle in then ". He walked into the room and saw the high vaulted ceiling that had patches of green and orange stain glass on it, " She's really nothing like her sister ".

Luscious had been surprised when he found out Axis wasn't in his suite. They were neighbors and he'd wanted to surprise him. His suite was on the north wing and gave an amazing view of the trees surrounding the estate and the front yard below.

He knocked on the next door and walked in when he got no response, " Who stays here anyways ". He screamed when Archie appeared out of nowhere and laughed, " You look funny when you're scared Uncle Lu ".

Luscious frowned slightly, reaching out for him but he was out of reach " How are you even floating "? Nichole flew past him, " Our amazing Sister Qidu of course ". June did a back flip and appeared in his face, " Lord Axis is in the middle room ".

He was about to ask how she knew who he was looking for, " Thank you "? but was suddenly pulled up by a boy with black hair. Dodging the children, he walked in. He was a bit overwhelmed by the noise but soon got back his composure.

He saw Nectar by the window making what appeared to be imaginary hearts and followed her gaze. He saw Bonsi twisting Axis' head from side to side and shook his head, " Reality just left the castle ".
