Alice & Alicia: Religious Twin Daughter

The Knife that Whipped

At that time, the atmosphere in the capital was very different. It was rumored that a very young noble lady was about to make her debut. The name of the Master Daughter of Wisdom who died three years ago began to be mentioned again. Antonio remembered his great aunt.

"The princess has truly inherited the wisdom of Duchess vi Alverio" the people said.

"His son did not lose either. He also became the youngest prince to make his debut in the upper class society."

"But he very rarely came out of the Duchy vi Alverio."

"Listen-heard, now he was honing his skills to replace the position of Duke vi Alverio in the region."

"Does the prime minister seriously assign the duke's duties to such a young heir?"

"Yes, therefore Princess vi Alverio helped her manage the vacant duchess duties."

"really? She was only eight years old."

Such were the mouths of rowdy nobles. Antonio doesn't care much. To him, playing was more fun than paying attention to such useless things.

Antonio continued to be unconcerned until the gate of the Pearl Palace which had been sealed for the past three years, was reopened. It was the only palace he had never explored. He was surrounded by a high wall that was so slippery and flat that Antonio could not climb it.

The little prince once tried to find a gap in his fortress, but the fort was so close that not a single hole appeared. When the gate was opened, Antonio wanted to rush into the palace. With his high infiltrating ability, surely no one would notice it.

Antonio was able to successfully infiltrate there. He arrived at a park that had just been rebuilt. Not as good as Bougainvillaea Park indeed, but this park is no less spacious than the park at Ruby Palace.

"Who's there?!" a loud voice startled Antonio at that moment along with a knife that shot towards him. Thankfully, the knife did not hit him. He was just discovered by a girl. The girl who immediately ran when she looked at him.

"Who is he? How did he get to be in this palace?" antonio muttered then took out a knife that was stuck nearby.

"What a horrible girl. I have to get out of here immediately" Antonio murmured inwardly. Sweat drenched his face. He did not want to suddenly come back and throw a knife at him. The palace is truly impressive.

"He's there!" the girl who was yelling at him. He was back before Antonio could straighten his feet and Queen Clara was surprised to see his presence.

"Geez, you naughty boy. Why are you here?" queen Clara's scolding with a horrible face. Antonio wanted to run immediately, but Queen Clara was one step faster to reach his ear.

"Oh, Mother! It hurts" Antonio protested without being able to resist. Who would have thought he would be caught by his own mother. After this he will get a law and a lecture that is long and wide by high times.

"An little one," called Queen Clara with a sinister grin. He still hasn't taken off his jewelry. "Mom's answer."

"I.. I.." Antonio was forced to answer, "Just curious about this place."

"Then what are you doing with that knife?" Queen Clara shines a knife in Antonio's hand.

"It was the boy who threw it at me" said Antonio in self-defense. Queen Clara could hardly believe it, but the girl Antonio had appointed had already spoken out loudly, "That's because you suddenly came from the bushes like a murderer!"

"An?" queen Clara's face grew even scarier after hearing that explanation. He then sighed and dragged his son into a saung that was still complete with tea utensils and some sweet snacks. Antonio gets a premonition that his sentence will be postponed and become more serious later.

"Why did Aunt bring the child here?" alice's protest didn't like it. Queen Clara smiled. After all, this Pearl Palace was a property belonging to the princess.

"Daughter of Alice, please introduce, she is Prince Antonio el Vierum. Just call him An" said Rata Clara trying to melt the atmosphere. However, it did not work for Alice. For the rest of the day, Alice never once faded her vexed look at Antonio.

In the evening, the youngest daughter's debut party was held. Antonio sits on a balcony high in the royal family's specialty. She saw Alice enter in a blue dress typical Family vi Alverio very beautiful. The girl was accompanied by her brother whom Antonio already knew.

Alice really wowed the entire palace. The appearance is very elegant even though the dress she wears is loose and tightly closes the part that must be closed. She was like a fairy who came on the night of the full moon.

Antonio immediately turned his face away. He then remembered the tragedy that had befallen him this afternoon. "No! The boy was a fierce girl," he murmured inwardly. However, his eyes silently looked back at Alice. She dances with her sister as a partner.

Many times Antonio tried to turn his eyes away, many times he also returned it. The charm of the girl had penetrated into his heart. He then felt that the graceful princess was his first love.

Alice did not dance anymore after dancing with her sister. Everyone who came to him was rejected firmly and coldly. From then on, she was known as the Winter Princess by the people.

It was only a few days ago that Antonio understood why Alice was so unapproachable. He has an invisible veil that protects him from people's evil. As long as he follows the demands of the veil of that rule, he will be forever protected.

Actually the veil itself also curbs and confines Alice. However, Alice happily languished in it to protect her purity and honor. His life was filled with tranquility. The ins and outs of the world can not origin disturb him. While waiting for the time to return to the Divine Annunciation, he will continue to confine himself in it.

That is the essence of the Sharia revealed by God. In fact, he protects and chains. Because those who believe consider the world to be like a prison. Later, their resting place was his heaven.

"Alice, what do you think of me as a fiancee?" antonio asked with a face that was red. Somehow the words came out of his mouth. He saw the Winter Princess who was now his fiancee smiling warmly. The first smile that Antonio saw. Alice answered her question, "You are an enterprising and intelligent person. I like yourselves like that."

"Likes? So Alice doesn't hate me at all," Antonio's inner relief. Heart's pounding. Pucuk loved ulam also arrived. He was finally accepted by his first love.

"You're also a slightly considerate and somewhat sensitive person," Alice continued without taking off her smile later, "Thank you for that."

Alice's tone sounded like a compliment. However, the words "little" and "somewhat" were a rebuke to Antonio. Antonio can only reply with a smile. Of course he will try to be more attentive and sensitive to it.

"What do you think of our engagement?" ask Antonio again when they get to the park. That day, it was a very bright morning. The sun casts its rays as God's blessing to the earth. Beautiful and beautiful flowers are blooming. The butterflies danced happily.

"This engagement is very good for us" Alice replied in her opinion, "I will continue to learn and wait until it is appropriate to be at His Majesty's side," one more of Alice's innuendo that Antonio managed to absorb. "During that time, I hope we can keep each other's honor and subordinate our views to the permanence of our future relationship."

"All right," said Antonio, accepting Alice's hope. Then she saw Alice's sweet and warm smile. The girl's cheeks met red for the first time. Grain of love began to wet there.

"Against the Crown Prince and Crown Princess el Vierum," Who would have thought Alice's hopes would be dashed before she even had time to leave the palace to return to her territory. The two met a beautiful girl. His smile was very sincere and melenakan like a colorful magic. His calm green eyes were like blades that shot towards the heart.

That day's meeting bore nothing but false hope and a wound in Alice's heart.
