Alice & Alicia: Religious Twin Daughter

Hope Alice

"The city of Marianna was ruled by pirates without us knowing," King Claudius el Vierum II wrung his hand. The problem of magic monsters has not been solved, the knight army is still divided, now a city suddenly controlled by foreigners. "This is a disgrace. We can't let it go much longer. The Navy has pulled anchor. We Royal Knights are going to take the city back."

The Knights of the Kingdom el Vierum exclaimed. With neat steps, they left the capital. Every citizen who saw the parade of the great troops exclaimed with encouragement. They believe their family can win and survive easily.

"It was too late to get there" Alice observed the convoy from the tallest tower in the Pearl Palace. He is accompanied by Aria, the silent silver-haired girl. "But this is better than nothing. If Marianna City is left too long, the pirates can take over the other city."

"Alice, you don't have to worry," comforted Aria. Her voice was gentle with attention. His hands were smooth as he rubbed Alice's long hair, "The Royal Knights could definitely face them. Moreover, His Majesty King el Vierum intervened himself to lead the army. From today our work will increase."

"Yes, we're going to pacing back and forth to Ruby Palace to take care of a lot of things," Alice stood up and puffed her cheeks. When viewed from afar, Alice and Aria look like harmonious siblings. One is dark-haired, the other is bright-haired. Alice exhaled, "Well, I can't imagine any other business that we have to finish."

"Just calm down, we can definitely," Aria's soft voice flew in the wind and quickly disappeared. For a few moments, silence accompanied them. Both are in each other's minds. Their gaze fell on the group of knights who seemed to be starting to leave the city walls.

"You've been here since!? Why not bring us?" aristia's voice sounded so loud it shook the silence. The blonde girl came with Mainne.

"Ah, I saw that you were busy in the lab," Alice replied in a knot, "So, I don't want to bother you."

"Well, it's beautiful here" cried Aristia pleased. His gaze swept across every corner of the city. Almost everything is visible from the tower, "Before, I thought this tower was not to be entered."

"You may come here at any time" Alice was delighted to see the joy of her friend, "Originally be careful. This place is very high and dangerous."

"Okay!" Aristia showed her thumb a sign of understanding. Mainne, who had been with him since, was silent. His eyes were venturing into every corner of the tower. After being satisfied to see the interior, he looked outside. The army of knights who were about to liberate his city had already half left the city. Outside of the fortress, they still stepped neatly and gallantly.

"God has made this earth easy to explore" Alice looked at the knights who had now entirely left the city. They look like rows of ants stepping in an orderly manner. The heat of the sun was stinging as if it did not bother them at all. "Want me to wander His vast earth and see many things. Later, it was to Him that I came back."

"Adventurer, huh?" Aristia was interested to hear it, "It seems like it's a very great thing. Can we do it someday?"

"Either?" Alice raised her shoulders uncertainly, "We are the ones responsible for the future of this country. We cannot act recklessly. But if God wants another way, we can do it. If that time comes, I'll be glad you'll stay by my side."

"We will stay together" Aria replied, "If Alice ever wants to travel all the land on earth, then I will gladly open it up for you."

"Don't forget us" Aristia replied, "We're here too."

"Well, it turns out you're right here," Akilla's voice came up suddenly and nagged, "It's time to go down. I know it's a holiday, but we still have a lot of work and important schedules."

"Shhh! Someone's coming," the Mad Heir masterminded Lincoln's path as he searched for a way out of the sewers. They just finished resting in the refugee camp. According to the calculations of the Mad Heir, it should be on the surface already bright by now.

"Young Master Illumity, I know you're there," called out a voice shaking off the silence. The Mad Heirloom gritted his teeth. Lincoln gasped when he heard it.

"Basic is disrespectful! I told you not to mention that name again!" suddenly the Mad Heir comes out of his hiding place. Seeing this, Lincoln concluded that the man carrying the light lantern was an acquaintance of the Mad Heir.

"Young Master Illumity? Means you were the son of the previous city lord," asked Lincoln to feel good about it.

"No! I'm not that guy! He's dead, "the Mad Heir vehemently denies it. If the light hit his face at that time, it would be obvious that his face was red with anger. "You! What do you want from me? There's nothing left. Go quickly!"

"Calm down, Young Master," the voice of the Lantern-Bearer was calm with dignity. It is clear that he has done a lot of transactions and negotiations. "The government has sent help. The royal army will be there in a few days."

"What does this have to do with me? There's no point in me knowing. Go quickly!" drive out the Mad Heirloom full of annoyance. Unlike Lincoln who sounded relieved from his breath.

"Let me go to the dungeon of Marianna City" the Lantern-bearer went straight to the point. He knows that the Mad Heir is a stubborn man, but that does not mean he is one who ignores his people. "It is up to you to take what action will be. First of all, we have to save the Marianna City troops locked underground."

"Do it yourself! I told you I wouldn't come," the Mad Heirloom was unceasingly shouting. He did not want to deal with the aristocracy anymore.

"Are you not aware of how severe the above conditions are?" the Lantern-bearer was now speaking coldly. Although he remained calm, his voice was full of decisiveness. "Are you going to keep quiet despite knowing the facts."

"Shut up! I don't want to hear it," the Mad Heir closing his ears with both hands. He shook his head quickly as if he was rejecting something. He knelt on the floor.

"Excuse me," Lincoln decided to take over. He understood his condition a little. The shabby man who had been with him since yesterday was the rightful heir of the family that controlled this city. While the person carrying the lantern was likely an internal servant or a person related to the government. "Where did you get that information? Is the gate open?"

"Where is it possible? Because of you, that door was closed yesterday. The situation was getting worse," the Lantern-Bearer sounded out nagging Lincoln. Well, that's not wrong. As his identity as a royal spy was already exposed, the new city lord would not let him out.

"Ah, sorry," Lincoln slightly regretted his actions. What can I do? He really could not bear to see a girl being persecuted. The girl had already run away when Lincoln was chased. I hope he's okay.

"Until when do you want to pretend to be crazy like this?" this time, the voice of the Lantern-bearer sounded annoyed. "You think, the people in there can hold on until when if the situation continues like this."

There's no answer. Only a terrible laugh suddenly sounded. It seemed, that Mad Heir had truly gone mad. There is no point in forcing him.

"May you be healthy always" the Lantern-Bearer finally decided to leave. Well, the Mad Heir is not that important. As long as the detained troops can be released, that's enough for now. His mission was also not to make that person seize the city

"Wait on! You're also a royal, aren't you?" Lincoln decided to follow the man. It is important to share information with each other. Even if he is not from the kingdom, they have the same goal. So, it will not be difficult to work together later.
