Alisha (3)

A day later, the morning arrived. Viani has returned, he arrived in the middle of the night. Since Viani had returned, this morning the one who woke up Emilia is, of course, Viani.

"Miss Emilia wake up, morning has come," Viani said.

Emilia then wakes up, she looks at Viani for a moment. She didn't show any reaction at first, she was still a bit sleepy and didn't register it at first. Not until a moment later that she realizes who woken her up. Her eyes were wide open and she immediately hug Viani.

"Viani!!" Said Emilia with her sweet voice. "Viani!!... you're back!!"

"Yes miss, I'm back," said Viani, then continued "Do you want to have breakfast here or in the dining room with the others?".

"Yesterday I had breakfast at the library, now I want to have breakfast with mother, Sister, and Father!!" Emilia said.

"As you wish Miss Emilia."

Viani then accompanied Emilia to the dining room. But in the dining room, there was only Tilea.

"Where's mother and father?" Ask Emilia.

"Father and Mother left yesterday... uh... they have some jobs to do," Tilea said.

"Eeh?.. Why didn't they tell me?" Emily said with a sad tone.

"Tch... irresponsible parents," Viani said under her breath.

No more conversation after that and they ate their breakfast. After that, Viani and Emilia head to the library. Tilea and her personal maid head to the backyard.

When Emilia and Viani arrive in the library. Viani immediately says.

"Okay Young miss, I will continue the lesson on magic, where I left you last time?... I don't quite remember,"

"Um... Viani." Emilia said.

"Yes.. miss??." Asnwer Viani.

Emilia hesitated to say what she wanted to say.

"You seem to hesitate... do you want something?" Ask Viani.

"May... may I.... call one more maid to... to accompany me here?" Emilia ask.

"Yes... you don't need my permission young miss. If that is what you want, I will call a new servant here" said Viani.

"Ah.. no Viani, I want to call the maid who accompanied me yesterday when you were gone," Emilia said.

"Is that so?.. well, what's the maid's name, I'll call her" said Viani.

“Her name is Alisha,” Emilia said.

"Alisha?... I feel like I heard this name before. She must be a new hire cause it didn't give me much impression. I'll call her immediately, please wait young miss." Said Viani.

"Okay..."

Viani then went to meet the head butler's office.

"Excuse me" Viani entered the kitchen and met the butler.

"Ah, Viani?? Come on in, what brought you here?" said the butler.

"I'm here to ask you something.." said Viani.

"What do you want to ask??"

"About the maid named Alisha, I don't know what she is like. The young lady asked her to come to the library"

A girl who had just opened the door to the office stopped when she heard Viani's words.

"What a coincidence, she is behind you. Alisha, stop whatever your duty is, I'll ask another maid to fill it for you. As you may already hear, seem like the youngest called you to the library. Go with Viani to the library right now" said the butler.

"Yes...yes sir."

Viani turned around and saw Alisha. She opened her eyes to examine Alisha. What she saw was a magic anomaly happening around her hair and her eyes. If Viani is not mistaken, those eyes are the so-called Eye of Truth.

"So you're Alisha? are you new here??" Viani said.

"Y..yes, I was just here three days ago," Lisha said.

"Your surname?" Viani said.

"I... I'm just a commoner, I don't have a family name" Lisha said.

"Is that so??, have you studied magic before?"

"I haven't at all"

"Fascinating..."

Viani is very suspicious of Alisha. She glared at Alisha with her eyes. Alisha trembling by Viani's gaze. The thing that made Viani very suspicious of Alisha is what happened last night when she just got back. She felt someone staring at her with a very unfriendly gaze. She briefly looked for the source of the gaze, but the gaze disappeared a moment later. Viani suspects that Alisha has bad intentions and only pretends to be a timid, cowardly young character. But even so, Viani doesn't want to make Alisha reveal her identity right now. She wanted to play with Alisha's game and pretend to be tricked. That way, she can discover Alisha's motives and goals.

"Come with me, young lady Emilia is waiting in the library"

"Yes..."

Viani and Lisha then headed to the library. Lisha walked behind Viani and stare at Viani's shoulder. She looked at Viani's shoulder as if there was something strange. Viani certainly felt Lisha's gaze which made her suspicions grow bigger. When they arrived at the library, they saw Tilea and Emilia talking to each other.

"As I said before if you want I can buy a great sword for you," Tilea said.

“But sis, I really don't remember that at all” Emilia said.

"Really??, but how can you forget that great move with that greatsword???" Tile said.

While Viani went to call Lisha to the library, Tilea came to persuade Emilia to practice swordsmanship together. But Emilia has absolutely no interest in practicing swordsmanship, she just wants to read books and learn magic. Tilea kept on persuading Emilia until Viani returned to the library.

"Miss Tilea.." said Viani.

"Ah Viani, is Emilia's schedule empty today?? apart from reading books all day?" Tilea ask.

"Sorry miss, today I have to teach Miss Emilia magic. So the schedule is not empty"

Tilea's face then looked sad.

"Is that so??..am what about tomorrow???"

"Tomorrow maybe Miss Emilia can accompany you," said Viani.

"EEEEEEH.....No magic lessons tomorrow!!" Emilia shouted.

"I think you should spend time with your sister as well," said Lisha, who had been silent all this time.

Viani just nodded her head showing that she agreed.

"But..."

"No buts, I also have something to do tomorrow Miss," said Viani.

"Eeeh... is it a task from mother??"

Viani nodded.

Tilea then said " Alright Emilia!! Tomorrow you have no reason to refuse your sister!! hehehe!!" Tilea then left the library with a chuckle.

Viani then drew closer to Emilia and said.

"Miss, I have already called Alisha as you ordered".
