Flashback - Aidon City

"You know the worst thing is because there are no more descendants from Aarez. Then, the throne can fall into the hands of the king's adviser."

"Do you understand what I mean now?" Revania said, and she returned to styling her wig.

"Hah?" Helena covered her mouth.

"Having or not having children of the Chaytons... Still, the throne and victory are on their side." Helena made her conclusion.

"You're right, Helena. That's why I have to find an empress for my husband. Save his position as a king, even though I have to give up my heart." Revania said, and a single tear had managed to escape her cheek.

"And you, Helena? You are the right person to replace me. I'm so sorry I have to use your grandmother. So you can obey my orders. But don't worry, according to my promise, if you succeed in getting the king's heart. I will bear all the costs of your grandmother Helena's treatment. " Revania said again.

Helena was silent for a moment. She had got all the answers to her questions so far. But why? It was heavy.

King Louis loves Queen Revania. Wouldn't it look evil if Helena openly won the king's heart?

"Accept or not? It's up to you, cunning girl! I don't have much time. Soon Queen Revania will come!" Ron said with an annoyed snort.

A few hours later.

Those blue eyes looked cynically at the old man. Who had a crooked body, there was an impression of dissatisfaction when Revania asked an easy question regarding his latest invention.

Regarding power generation, using the power of water and will help irrigate fields and rice fields for farmers in Aarez Country.

Ron's body, which was already hunched over by its very nature, bowed even more. Because he was getting more and more panicked and anxious, knowing the Queen was dissatisfied with his answer.

"I'll send someone to double-check your findings and make sure you have an answer to my question," Revania said firmly, then walked past Ron with dignified steps.

Revania had entered her car. The light was still clearly visible. The reporters looked annoyed because the Queen came out without saying a word.

"Meghan, make sure someone checks the find from him," Revania said. She is looking towards the side of the window when the long black car started to move slowly.

"Very well, Queen Majesty," replied Meghan, who is Queen Aarez's assistant.

"How is that possible! He's made headlines everywhere, to the point of being heard by the kingdom... but when something goes wrong with his invention engine? You saw that! What a stupid old man!" Said Queen Revania, annoyed and furious.

Under such circumstances, Meghan would not dare to say anything. She knew exactly the character of the Queen, who loved details and perfection.

"Where are we now?" asked the Queen.

When she saw the crowd of the market, not far from where the car was driving.

"Ohh... that place. A small market, but quite busy. Because the market is the only place for economic activity in this small town." Meghan answered with certainty.

"I want to go there for a while and see my people up close," Revania said. Meghan looked stunned and surprised at Revania's strange request.

Inevitably Helena had received money that she didn't deserve. Her face was bent with annoyance.

But the smell of bread began to sting thickly on her nose. Making Helena glance at the baker, a woman had just placed a warm loaf of bread and displayed it on a glass display case.

"Grandma will be happy for sure." Helena smiled widely at the delicious-looking buns.

"I can buy some, and... Ah... I can still buy medicine for grandma." Helena said while counting the sheets of paper.

Helena is a cheerful, hardworking, and young girl. A farmer's daughter lives with her grandmother.

Without a father and mother. Who left her long ago when she was a baby. The young girl does not go to school. She only helps her grandmother to work in the fields.

Don't forget to work in the Weasleys' cornfield, which is still earning and can help finance it.

Helena is a smart girl. Unfortunately, she is not too lucky.

The country of Aarez is new. A country that has separated and declared independence from the Antarez Kingdom.

Aarez country is trying to become a developed country. It's a shame that Aarez country sacrifices a lot of its little people.

One of them is Helena, the girl only learns from what she sees and hears. An old television that he found in a garbage dump became her only source of information and learning.

Electricity?

That one sentence is a major problem for the Aarez State because not all corners of the city get an equal supply of electricity. Even when the world is very developed, there are still many small towns in the country of Aarez, which still use candles or artificial lights, to illuminate their homes.

Indeed, only a few cities, but still social inequality occurs and looks very clear. Helena often curses King Aarez, which is unfair – according to her and in her heart.

The rest; dozens of other cities live in peace, prosperity, and prosperity.

Slick black pants. A shabby white shirt and a pet hat that covered all of his blonde hair. That's how Helena looked at that time, far from a simple impression.

Poor, that's one word to describe it.

The chocolate package containing delicious slices of bread was already in her arms.

She imagines the face of her grandmother will be very happy later.

But before, her eyes fell on a woman with blonde hair. Her face was almost covered with a red scarf. That was wrapped around her head.

Beside the woman, there was a boy who was several years older than her. Seen close to the woman, very suspicious.

Because one of the boy's hands began to slip into the small bag, that was beside the woman's body.

"Jack? HEY JACK!" Suddenly, Helena shouted because she knew her friend. She ran to her friend, without thinking.

"SHIT!" Jack cursed angrily, then without replying or waiting for Helena to approach.

The man immediately turned around and ran as fast as he could.

Not only Jack the stalker was surprised, but the blonde woman and also the woman beside her were shocked.

The two of them were cool in front of a cloth shop, realizing something was strange and suspicious. Immediately she gripped her bag tightly.

"Are you okay?" Meghan asked worriedly.

"Yes, I am doing okay," Revania answered, and her eyes turned to Helena was running towards the two of them.

"Shit! He ran away! Are you all right, madam? I hope the boy didn't take anything of value from your bag." Helena said, holding her knees and breathless.

"Yes, I am doing okay," Revania answered, and she is watching Helena's face carefully. Intrigued by Helena's blue eyes, which are the same as hers.
