Alice & Alicia: Religious Twin Daughter

Magic Effect

"Finally done as well," Queen Clara breathed a sigh of relief after finishing her task today, "It felt so tired. I've been dizzy lately, too."

"Maybe you're overworked, Your Majesty," Henrietta poured the new tea in Queen Clara's glass. She served as an administrative assistant as well as a trustee of the queen. Her full name is Henrietta de Ernest. He entered the count's noble family after his marriage to Rwan de Ernest. Her husband works as an executive at the Central Supervisory Hall.

"Well, maybe," Queen Clara put her head on the table with her arms as a cushion. He stared at the pile of white papers arranged on his desk. A few months ago, he was still using lower quality parchment and yellow paper. Inwardly, he thanked Mainne for learning and developing the eastern papermaking technique.

"It's the end of the academy semester, isn't it?" Queen Clara remembered something. He lifted his head and rose, "What will the academy do in the early summer?"

"The academy will hold a hunt outside the capital" Henrietta replied.

"A manhunt outside the capital? Where's where?" Queen Clara joined Henrietta sitting on the sofa.

"Academy has not published its place. However, they should have started to get ready by now" explained Henrietta, who then turned her head when the door to Queen Clara's office was knocked.

Queen Clara also looked. He knew who was behind the door from the sound of his knock. "Come in, the door's not locked."

When the door opened, a little girl was seen from behind it. The girl rushed in and hugged Henrietta. With a loud voice, he exclaimed, "Mama...!"

"Zuhaily, how are you?" ask Queen Clara gently. Zuhaily, who was still comfortable in his mother's arms, turned his head. He looked at Queen Clara and then smiled as he exclaimed cheerfully, "I'm good, Auntie."

"Lily, be courteous to Her Majesty" Henrietta taught. Zuhaily always liked to play to the palace while he was working. It was fortunate that Queen Clara allowed it. Queen El Vierum even likes to invite her first daughter with Alice.

"Baginda?" Zuhaily stared at Queen Clara innocently. Queen Clara also chuckled and stroked the silvery Zuhaily's back hair typical of the Ernest Family. "It's okay, Lily. Call me aunt."

"Baginda, it will be difficult to get rid of the habit if you grow up later" protested Henrietta who is very concerned with manners. Unlike Queen Clara who was flexible, she was more like her brother-in-law, Leticia de Ernest.

"It's okay, he must understand that it's big later," Queen Clara replied casually, "Lily, do you want to be like your mother? You'll see Alice a lot later."

"I want! Brother Alice is very kind," replied Zuhaily pleased.

"You should learn a lot then," Queen Clara once again stroked Zuhaily's silver hair.

"Lily is studious and smart," exclaimed Zuhaily. He clenched his hand to the sky. Her figure was as feisty as Aristia. His mother was stiff. Maybe because he inherited the habits of his father who is supple.

"Gee... Pearl Palace will be crowded if you are there," welcome Queen Clara. Henrietta could only sigh in resignation, but she was grateful that her first daughter had the support of the queen from an early age. His future will be bright.

"Baginda, Crown Princess el Vierum sends you a letter" said one maid after knocking on the door several times. Queen Clara told the maid to come in and take her letter.

"You may return now" Queen Clara did not wish to make the servant wait too long. Before the maid left, Queen Clara said again, "Wait! Bring this snack and eat with your friends at rest."

The waiter seemed doubtful. He had not worked in the palace for long. So, this was the first time he was offered food by his employer.

"No need to hesitate, take it!" by Queen Clara.

The servant glanced at Henrietta who nodded at him. With a stammer, he thanked and received a snack from Queen el Vierum. Outside the office, he exclaimed cheerfully inwardly.

"Hm?" Zuhaily tilted his head visibly digesting the words of the queen. He took a piece of sponge cake from the table, and gave it to Henrietta, "Mama, I share."

"Good! That's right, Lily," praised Queen Clara.

"Lily's a smart kid, yeah," Henrietta added, offering a sweet smile. Children should be given lots of smiles to build their personality. They will feel happiness with it.

"Lily's a smart kid," Zuhaily repeated the words while clapping his hands. He is very happy to receive happiness from those closest to him.

On the other side of the palace, one of the ladies-in-waiting to Queen Clara this afternoon turned to her right and left. It looks like he is watching the flowers. His mouth read something.

When his mouth stopped, a tiny glass bottle fell down as if it had emerged from void space. The bottle was previously in the form of white Lilies. After the spell was recited, the illusion magic there disappeared.

"You'll graduate soon, right?" antonio asked in between his breaks, "Where are you going to be interned?"

"Let's know, I haven't specified it yet" Solid casually replied. He seemed to care nothing about his future. Though he is the best knight candidate that many of the squad expect.

"Talented people don't think much, do they?" syndir Antonio.

"It's an easy affair. I'm planning to join the hunt this year, "Solid replied still seems unconcerned. He grabbed his sword and stood up. A moment later, he unsheathed the sword towards a young man who had just arrived.

"What does this mean, Sword Chief?" chris Charles with an annoyed face. He wanted to convey the message of the professor, his rival even took a storm with him.

"Ck! Basic Brain Books are not exciting," Solid lowered his sword. Charles' anger was growing. He forgot the trust of the professor who sent him. "Who do you call Book Brain?"

"Isn't it clear? Who else if not you?" solid Cibir. Antonio clucking. The two seniors started again. They had drawn swords and were ready to duel.

"That's it! Can you guys just calm down? I want to rest, " Antonio broke both before he started fighting. He didn't want to see a duel not important today. There are a lot of thoughts that concern him now.

Solid and Charles looked. This was the first time that Crown Prince el Vierum had interceded for them. Charles remembered the meaning of his arrival.

"Prince, Professor Alverous is calling you" Charles said.

"Hm? What's up?" Antonio stared lazily.

"See, he wants you to go to his office immediately" replied Charles as was. That's all he knows.

"Huh.okay," Antonio exhaled and then got up. He soon left Solid and Charles might return to the duel.

"Vool" Antonio muttered involuntarily. On the way to Professor Alverous's office, he thought a lot about Charlotte. Lately, it's been so often. He had heeded his mother's warning not to deal with the girl anymore.

"De Vool" Antonio can't forget Charlotte no matter how many times he tries. The smile on the girl's face continued to stick in her mind. He also massaged his forehead hoping that the dizziness that suddenly came soon disappeared.
