Chapter 24

"Fine, then I will leave this kingdom, even from this planet and will never show myself before all of you."

In his last sentence, Devan dropped his gaze on Agatha who was staring at him intently. Both of their netra meet each other in a straight line, there is a sadness and a feeling that is so earned. However, both Agatha and Devan were both silent because they didn't want anyone to get hurt again.

Slowly Devan's body began to emit light. A beam of light enveloped his body. Agatha also seemed to close her eyes. He did not have the strength to be able to see his lover gone forever.

Meanwhile, the people of the Miracle kingdom raised their heads as did the bald-headed man who acted as the executioner. They unite their eyes on the young man who is considered a disgrace.

The body that was shrouded in light slowly turned into small particles that made Devan disappear. Agatha couldn't hold back her tears. He cries. Yes, she was sobbing. He was really sick, sore and could not bear to see his lover go like this.

However, this is a last resort. Agatha doesn't want Devan to be beheaded for loving her. That's why Agatha made a pact with her father.

"Mother!"

Suddenly a soft call made Agatha wake up from her daydream. The woman who was no longer young was also wiping the tears without noticing that they were already wet on her cheeks.

"Mommy crying? Mom, why are you crying?" asked the sweet girl with the long hair, wiping the remaining tears from her mother's cheek, who was none other than Agatha.

"It's okay, honey. Mom's fine," he admits, putting a smile on his lips, which looks like it's made up.

At least that's how Alika feels. Her mother's tears had proven that there was something she was feeling. However, his lips were trying to deceive with words.

"Alice, can't believe it." She spread her cheeks, her eyes started to tear up. "Hey, don't cry, honey." Agatha hastily wiped the tears that were trying to get out of the beautiful beads of her beloved princess.

"You can do it, then why can't I?" he snapped, which made Agatha immediately hug him.

"I'm sorry, honey. I shouldn't have cried in front of you. I'm sorry, my dear." Agatha patted Alika's shoulder, she stroked the mane of her beloved princess, trying to calm her back down.

Alika was crying until sobs. The beautiful and cheerful teenager could feel that the tears her mother was trying to hold back were a sign that she was longing for her father.

Yes, Alika thought that Agatha was crying because she missed her husband, a man whose face Alika had never seen before.

Agatha herself also dropped her gaze on the figure of a man who was standing a little further ahead. The adult man who is now close to his daughter is none other than his former lover.

The memory of her past figure is now re-imagined by Agatha. In fact, living together with Arthur for two hundred years, had not in the least diminished his love for Devan.

The seconds of Devan's departure from the Miracle kingdom are still very imprinted in Agatha's mind. Even until this moment, when he re-opened the old sheet, he would not be able to cry.

How great his love for Devan was, beating the love he had shared with Arthur for hundreds of years. Agatha wasn't in love with Arthur. However, Devan as the owner of his first love will never be erased in his heart.

"That's it, honey. Don't cry all the time. You'd better go, or you'll be late for school again."

Agatha loosened her arms, she looked at the princess's beads which were still filled with clear crystals. He immediately wiped away the tears, they disappeared with a little teasing.

"Go away, don't make your father wait," he said, glancing at Devan, who was currently frozen there.

As soon as Alika rolled her eyes, she covered her mouth with both hands. Agatha nodded slowly, "Yes, honey. Don't make your father wait like this," she said again repeating the word 'Father' which made Alika even more happy.

A smile graced Alika's sweet lips. He couldn't hide his happiness when he heard that he was now allowed to call Devan as Daddy.

Yes, the father in question is Devan and not Arthur of course. Agatha was forced to do this because she did not want to continue to see Alika sad and also with Devan's presence would make Alika always safe.

Alika turned around, her eyes immediately fell on the figure of a man she had known for a long time. Alika smiled at Devan and the grown man replied with a smile too.

Alika looked back at her mother. Agatha flashed the best smile, even though it was actually a sad smile she was trying to hide.

"Thank you mom." He hugged Agatha so tightly. Meanwhile, Agatha stared intently at Devan who was standing there frozen.

He must have had a big question why Agatha said that to Alika, which Agatha didn't really need to do.

Alika also let go of her arms, she felt happy and happy to hear this news, and especially after this she will be able to call Devan as Daddy.

"I love you mom," he said, kissing his mother's right and left cheeks.

"I love you too," replied Agatha with a small smile.

Alika immediately said goodbye, she waved at Agatha, then ran towards Devan. Agatha also tried to keep her consciousness in order to continue to look happy in front of her beloved daughter.

Meanwhile Devan smiled gently at Alika. The adult man stroked Alika's hair and said. "Are you ready, honey?"

The question was immediately snatched up with a quick nod, "Yes. Of course, Father," he said shamelessly.

Devan gasped, he couldn't hide his surprise when he heard Alika call him Dad. If he could say, he wanted Alika not to call him that. However, seeing Agatha winking made Devan understand.

"Yes, honey. I we go!" he asked while turning his body. When she was about to take a step, Alika fainted first to make Devan surprised.

Unexpectedly, Alika grabbed his hand. Dean glanced at him. However, he immediately smiled in response.

"Come on!" he asked with a smile.

Alika also feels happy, this is the first time she feels very happy. It's all inseparable from the role of Devan. Alika has long dreamed that she would go to school with her father and today her dream has come true.

Even though Devan is not her real father, Alika is already quite happy because this is what she wants. Having the figure of a man who becomes a woman's first love.

The two of them finally disappeared from sight, at the same time Agatha fell to the floor. His body immediately went limp, his bones seemed to explode and could no longer support his body.
