Alice & Alicia: Religious Twin Daughter

The Queen's Warning

"Queen's mother, I come to face," Antonio greeted his mother who had waited long enough in the saung of Baugenvillaea Park with some sheets of paper. The young prince did not see the tea and snack utensils that were usually there. There is only one seat that the queen has worn.

"It's a bad sign. I must be angry, "in Antonio's mind. He stood up without daring to look into his mother's eyes. He will definitely be treated this way if making trouble or delinquency.

"An, you know what? Mother was very embarrassed," Queen Clara began to open her mouth. Her tone was soft but piercing. Antonio was guessing what kind of trouble his mother would be raising right now.

"Mother is a confidant of the Twin Daughters who was entrusted to be the queen of this kingdom," Queen Clara began by telling stories and blaming herself, "Mother managed to become the queen as the two princesses hoped, but has the mother failed as a parent in charge of educating her child?"

Antonio's heart trembled. There was a feeling inside him. He dared not look his mother in the eyes.

The maids who had originally accompanied the queen had been gone ever since Antonio came, but one of them had installed a tapper magic in the saung. So, he could hear the talk of the mother and son. He separated from the other ladies to concentrate on listening.

"An, do you know how my mother felt when she was sent from the Pearl Palace?" Queen Clara looked at her son. There was no smile on his face, but his voice remained soft. Antonio could only shake his head when he heard the question.

"Mother is very nervous. Being a queen means taking on great responsibility. Mother should be able to support her king to protect this vast kingdom," Queen Clara sighed for a moment. Recording memory rotates around him. He recalled how the late Duchess Evianna had encouraged him. "Mom realized that. If asked to choose, maybe the mother would prefer to marry with an equal family."

"Are all noble girls like that?" Antonio could only continue to stand and be silent. He thought that maybe Charlotte de Vool thought like her mother. Maybe the girl didn't want to be too burdened as a queen. "I feel enough to be friends with him."

"Mother must also prepare the heart if one day the king takes an empress to be with him," Queen Clara continued to tell her feelings at that time, "By thinking about it, just think about it, it feels so heavy for my mom. I'd be lying if I said you wouldn't be jealous."

"Ayahanda won't do it" Antonio spontaneously replied. He wanted to tell his mother that he had nothing to worry about. The king swore before him never to wish the queen. The young prince swore an oath to him.

"Mom knows," Queen Clara turned to a magnificent building where the king worked, "Because of that, I'm so grateful that she was so faithful, especially when you were born a man. Mother's worries are less and less because you will definitely grow into a great young man like your father."

"Mother also desperately wanted a princess," Queen Clara's tears slowly trickled down. Her cheeks were wet, but she continued, "Mom was very sad when she could not give birth to him safely."

Antonio almost moved his hand to wipe the tears, but somehow he was unable to do so. He could only stare at the silent floor. Unable to see the mother's cry.

"Had she survived, she must be Alice's age now" Queen Clara wiped away her tears. He was really sad when he remembered the face of his beautiful baby daughter right before she was buried. After that, she could no longer contain.

"The birth of Alice was a comfort to the mother," this time Queen Clara smiled faintly, "Mother is happy to see her growing up so well until now. I hope he's always happy forever."

Antonio still hasn't caught his mother's point. His legs began to feel sore because they stood too long. This is what he doesn't like when his mother is angry.

"An, I won't stay silent if you make her suffer" Queen Clara's words this time were very piercing. Antonio could feel a sigh of fear in his heart. His eyes were immediately bowed when he saw his mother's sharp gaze.

"I've heard something terrible lately" whispered Queen Clara. The bugging magic that the lady-in-waiting had been unable to catch the whisper. Hiss growled in the distance.

"Be careful with your actions. You who are now very weak and fragile," whispered Queen Clara making Antonio's eyes tremble, "Your name as Crown Prince el Vierum will be of no use if you make a big deal."

"Mother" Antonio only realized the essence of the queen's story as he recalled the gossip that spread lately. Because of the rumors, Solid who used to be close to him so much more distance. "I won't do anything you're worried about. I will take care of my fiancee no matter what. The girl in the rumor...."

Antonio fell silent for a moment thinking of the fitting words, "I just want to be friends with him, Miss de Vool. He also wanted to be friends with Alice."

"Enough! Don't you go near her anymore" Queen Clara stopped whispering, "If I were Alice, I wouldn't like to hear it. You should stay away from her as far as possible."

"Well, Mother," Antonio bent his face. He nodded in understanding. Now the wall between her and Charlotte is getting bigger.

...***...

"The woman again stands in the way of our plans" Dorothy exclaimed furiously. He hit the wooden table in front of him hard.

"Teacher, what are we going to do next?" Melissa asked nervously. Although she is a magical girl who likes to be reckless, but she will not dare to fight her teacher especially when she is angry.

"We must get rid of her," Nana proposed, "The woman will be a barrier between my beloved Lottie and the little prince."

"How are we going to get rid of the queen of this kingdom?" Melissa asked in disbelief. Nana lightly replied, "Toxic."

"Are you crazy?" snapped Melissa flatly refused, "The Witch Tower will lose its credibility if it gets caught."

"Then, we just need to do it carefully so as not to get caught," Nana grinned. She has been a demonic woman since joining the Witch Tower. He was only 17 years old. His hatred of the nobility made him unrelenting to do anything.

"Don't mess around!" Melissa warned.

"I don't think that's a problem" Dorothy gave her consent. He tells Nana to work out her plan. No matter what the effect it had on the Witch Tower, he would not be affected by it anyway. He just wanted to get the show that had been targeted by Voxnus, the virgin girl of royal blood.

Melissa squeezed her hair. He had no choice but to follow. He muttered, "Will I really become an antagonist after this?"
