Chapter 10

When Elisa was outside the hall door she stopped suddenly as she could not even listen a sound from inside this made her thoughts gone wild, she become even more worried.

She got inside after building up some courage and saw that everyone is silent and no one is even moving but staring at the same direction but what caught her attention was Albert and her daughter in his hands.

Albert is also staring at the same direction as others she got even more curious and asked "what happened here?"

She got everyone's attention on her. Albert turns towards her and stare at her with confuse gaze but didn't utter a word. She got closer to Albert and then her attention caught by an ice sculpture of Evans.

She curiously asked "my majesty, why is there a sculpture of king Evans; did you asked to made it for him" she lower her voice and said "even so, why in this position, it looked frightened of something"

But still Albert didn't say a thing, just staring at her: blankly.

She grew more worried, grabs a corner of his cloak and said "my majesty… majesty… Albert, answer me why are you silent? Why nobody telling me what is going on here?"

Someone builds up some courage and said "her majesty that sculpture is real king Evans, Princess Iris made him turn into ice".

Elisa says "what? How could Iris do something like this? Albert please explains, what happed here when I'm not here."

This time the knight who suppose to capture king Evans tell everything what happen when Elisa was not in the hall. Even Elisa got shocked by just listening.

Then one of the neighboring country's king said "King Albert I think your daughter is a mage [1]" by that comment everyone come back to their conscious state.

Someone from the crowd again said "but how could a king's daughter turns out to be a mage?"

Albert again turns his attention towards his daughter and stare into her eyes just like he was asking her 'Iris how you know how to use magic'.

Someone from the crowd come in front and said "I'm Cither one of the known mage from kingdom Lurie, if king Albert don't have any problem, can I check the princess I could able to tell if she's a mage or not"

Albert just nodded and Cither come closer to Iris and put his one hand on her forehead then closes his eyes. After some time he opened his eyes and have confused look in his eyes.

Cither said "king Albert, princess is not a mage as I can't able to feel any mage mana inside her but..." then Albert turns his head towards Cither and asked "but what mage Cither".

Cither continued "princess might not be a mage but she contain a holy power, I suggest that king Albert you should take her to the high priest of central kingdom"

Everyone nodded in agreement and Albert said "ok, as you say mage Cither".
