Chapter 70 – A lunch and day with Allen and Danica

Third person POV

 And then, shortly after, before Lloyd and Zeke would consider that, someone knocked on the door in Lloyd's office. "Come in," Zeke responded instead. The door was opened, and Lloyd's childhood friends from Langton entered in, exhausted from running and worried for Lloyd.

 "Oh, hey, guys," Lloyd said to them.

 "Camden-kun…" Allen said to them as well.

That crowned prince and Danica then apologized to them as well; this time, for the possibility that their father might banished them officially for ditching Hertzel.

 "Lloyd-kun, are you okay?" Camden asked while panting for his breath.

 "Yeah, I am," Lloyd replied back in semi-confusion. "Why?"

 "Did those 2 hurt you or do something bad to you?" Gaia asked back.

 "What? No, why they would do that?"

 "Because they're from Langton!" Ivory responded back.

 "Yeah, I know, but they are not bad towards me," Lloyd replied back.

Camden and the girls sighed in catching their breaths and were a bit puzzled by Lloyd's response.

 "Wait, what?" Electra commented.

Then, Zeke stepped in and responded back, "It's okay, guys, these 2 are not like their father. They are here to apologize to Lloyd for their father's actions towards him."

Camden and the girls then got it for a bit and understood it, yet were skeptical at the 2 royal children's purpose in their new home country.

 "Okay then…"

 "Alright then…"

The four of them then left the office and went downstairs in the living room to rest up from running.

 With that, Lloyd, Zeke, Allen, and Danica went back to their topic of partial reconciliation between Wooda and Langton. In that discussion, Lloyd and Zeke agreed with that but wants the 2 royals to keep their agreement and partial reconciliation and friendship a secret from their father. Allen and Danica agreed with their condition, knowing the consequences of leaking this out. So, both sides are now in reconciliation in the behalf of their countries.

 Later after that, Allen and Danica wanted to stay in Wooda for a while to see what it looked like. Hearing that request, Lloyd and Zeke agreed with that as well. So, by 10:44 a.m., Lloyd took the 2 royal children on a tour of the capital, Lewole. Zeke took over Lloyd's work for him for a while. The tour was long and involves a lot of walking, but Allen and Danica were interested in Wooda and its wonders and hallmarks of development, modernization, and prosperity. But, Camden and the girls are with them, making sure that Allen and Danica won't hurt or do something bad towards Lloyd. This makes Lloyd and the crowned prince and princess of Langton a bit uncomfortable, but Lloyd has to let them do it for their sake anyway.

 Later, all of them returned to the main administrative house for a nice lunch break. Lunch at the dining room is delicious, and the 2 royals saw and appreciated on how good and delicious Lloyd's food are. Xerxes, Sati, Zane, Zeke, Marsa, and Hale are there eating and drinking with them while getting along with Allen and Danica. Lloyd's childhood friends are eating with them but in the room since the dining table isn't big enough to include them. Laura and Gretchel are a bit proud of their cooking skills. At this point, Allen saw Lloyd's potential as a leader of his own country.
