Blue Crystal
After going through tiring days as the crown princess, Xavia can finally rest. Xavia chose to stroll around the Palace.
Xavia accidentally met Prince Quintis, who was also walking alone without being accompanied by servants or bodyguards.
Prince Quintis walked past Xavia.
"It's really hard for you to walk alone."
Prince Quintis, who heard Xavia's words, immediately stopped his steps.
"That's up to me. I want to walk alone or accompanied by a waiter. That is none of your business."
Then Prince Quintis immediately walked away from Xavia with Vamery and several servants who followed him.
"What is it, lady?" Vamery asked Xavia
"I just feel weird about him." Xavia senses that there is something different about Prince Quintis
"Strange what do you think, miss?" Vamery asked again with Xavia
But this time Xavia was silent, not answering Vamery's question.
"Princess Xavia." One of the maids called out her name.
"Ah no. Just forget it." Xavia is back on her journey.
Arriving at the Queen's Garden, she even saw something strange.
"Isn't that the prince, Princess?" It seemed that Xavia was not the only one who noticed this oddity. But the waiter too.
"The prince arrived here very quickly." This time Vamery answered.
Xavia immediately approached Prince Quintis, who was sitting, accompanied by several servants and bodyguards.
"What are you doing here?"
Seeing Xavia's arrival, Prince Quintis only stared for a moment, then returned to focus on something in his hand.
"None of your business."
Dissatisfied with Prince Quintis' answer, Xavia asked again.
"Didn't we just meet? Why did you get here so fast?"
"What do you mean? I've been here for an hour ago."
Hearing Prince Quintis' answer made Xavia confused.
Meanwhile...
Someone was sneaking into the secret room. The room is a place to store heirlooms and one of the most valuable objects in The Vriarealas Kingdom. It was a gift from the Moon Goddess for the Vriareala's Kingdom. Objects are considered the spearhead of the establishment of the country. It would give great power to someone who could possess it. It was a Blue Crystal. The crystal that was guarded with a shield of 1000 lights and a golden spear surrounding it made no one able to take it.
"This time I will succeed in having it."
Just as that person was about to exert strength to try to damage the golden spear and remove its shield, suddenly an arrow shot out and hit the shoulder.
"Damn it!"
He immediately turned around and saw the prince of this country enter the secret room with an arrow in his hand.
"What are you doing here, Zeden?"
"Of course, take this Blue Crystal."
"Are you crazy?! Do you want to destroy this country?!"
"Yes. I want to destroy this country and become the strongest in the whole country."
"Then I won't let you do it."
Then there was a fierce fight between prince Quintis and Zeden in the secret room. The fight continued until they heard the sound of footsteps running toward the secret room.
"Damn." Zeden disappeared immediately so as not to be caught
The guards who heard the noise of the commotion immediately opened the door of the secret room. When he looked, the room was empty. No one was in that room. They immediately went out and closed the door to the secret room again.
Prince Quintis, who had disappeared before being caught by the guards for causing a commotion in the secret room, breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately returned to the west pavilion so that anyone would not suspect his actions.
While Xavia, who watched everything from afar, just stared confusedly at the departure of Prince Quintis.
"Why is he so scared after leaving the room?"
Xavia asked in confusion.
"That's because no one is allowed to enter the room except with the King's permission."
One of Xavia's maids answered her question.
"So, who is allowed into the room?"
Xavia again asked her maid.
"Only the King and a few guards were assigned to guard the room against being entered by anyone."
"So Prince Quintis, Princess Floressia, and even the Queen are not allowed into that room?"
"Right."
"What's in that room, anyway?"
"That room holds an object that became the spearhead of the founding of this country. If it is taken, then this country will be destroyed. Therefore, the King is very careful about the room so that no one can enter it."
"I see."
Xavia now understood why Prince Quintis was so scared after he managed to get out of the room.
*****
This morning, Xavia was getting ready to go to school. After almost a week off due to an offering ceremony, the school finally came back down.
Xavia rode a white horse accompanied by Vamery and several of her servants, who also rode flying horses to escort Xavia to the school gate.
Xavia and her friend Athena went to the cafeteria before going to class.
"Congratulations, you have succeeded in becoming the crown princess." Athena congratulates Xavia
"Thank you." Xavia is back as it is.
"Oh yeah, why did you choose not to execute the prime minister and his family? The rules are it should put them to death?" Athena asked curiously.
"I just thought that it would cause problems in the future. So, avoiding that I chose not to put them to death." Xavia answered while drinking cold water with lemon flavor.
"But with you rescuing them, it will become a threat to you and your family later? They could be plotting murder for you or your family. Are you okay with that?" Athena said since last night about the decision made by Xavia
Xavia. Was her decision to follow concubine Lyonna's words wrong? If his family is in danger of death, what should she do next? Now Xavia is confused about the decision she has made. She thought, could concubine Lyonna be siding with the prime minister and have bad intentions toward her? If that's the case, why should Lyonna's concubine bother teaching her to sew? And say if she's the one who will win later? Of all these questions, Xavia's biggest question was what was the real purpose of concubine Lyonna?
