Alice & Alicia: Religious Twin Daughter

The People on His Side

"You're used to these things, right?" Granny Rubia showed me a silver bracelet. Alice nodded. It was a bracelet that Anna often wore, but the version was slightly different.

"It's Anna's for her and yours is for you" Grandma Rubia put the bracelet on Alice's arm. Its size adjusted Crown Princess el Vierum's arm. Alice's fingerprint data, eyepiece, and voice had been fed into the silver bracelet, so only Alice could use the function.

"It will only be a simple decoration in the hands of others," explained Marchioness Rubia, "But, it will help you in many ways."

"Accutancy calculations?" Alice guess. He knew the functions of the calculator, but he didn't need it. He prefers to use his intelligence directly.

"That is the most basic function," Granny Rubia smiled nodding, "There are still many others. We can communicate with each other, store important information, perpetuate an event, and so on."

Alice observed the silver bracelet now attached to her arm. When pressed at a certain point, the bracelet will widen so that it is easier to remove.

"The most important function is tracking. I hope you don't mind or feel overwhelmed by this," Grandma Rubia asked Alice's understanding, "We can tell wherever you are as long as you use this bracelet. You can send a help signal at any time. The closest person to our app will come to help you with God's permission."

"Hm," Alice nodded. She smiled sweetly and hugged Grandma Rubia. "Thank you, Grandma."

Rubia's grandmother stroked her grandson's head gently. His heart warmed as if something that had been lost in the past was coming back. His longing overflowed like a dry field watered by the rain of blessing. He did not want to let go at all.

"Grandmother," call Alice down. There was a tone of regret and sadness in his voice. In his grandmother's arms, he shed tears. "I'm sorry Alice. Alice should have come a long time ago."

"Grandmother can understand your condition, Crown Princess," comforted Grandma Rubia. He saw Alice's closed eyes and tears in her arms. By calling Alice the 'Crown Princess', he reminded her of her responsibilities. Although he did not want to let go, he also did not want to restrict it. "Grandmother doesn't have a problem with that. As long as you hear you're okay, Grandma's fine."

Alice continued to sob. He did not answer his grandmother's words anymore. He wanted to feel this warm embrace for a little longer. He wanted to feel the warm caress of a mother he had not felt for a long time.

"Alice, grandma doesn't forbid you from taking the third exam," Grandma Rubia looked at her twin daughter's training bow that is now on display in her study, "Please wait until the time comes. If you can pass, grandma will give you a different weapon than the others."

Alice still did not answer. The issue has stopped. His breath was calm. Her tears are finished. He fell asleep in his grandmother's arms.

The sound rang out in Grandma Rubia's ears. The earrings were shaking slowly. He immediately pressed his bracelet and immediately the phone connected.

"Grandmother, I heard she came to the residence?" the voice of a girl emerged from Grandma Rubia's earrings. The girl's voice sounded excited and cheerful, similar to Aristia's, but the accent was different. "May I also visit?"

"Is your school off?" Grandma Rubia asked back. Hands are still busy petting her granddaughter, Alice.

"No, but I can ask permission, right?" this time, the girl's tone sounded disappointed.

"No way, Alicia" Granny Rubia insisted made the girl there exhale even more disappointed.

"I just want to meet her," the girl called Alicia bid, "At any moment, Grandma. Just one day. It won't have any effect on my value."

"No, honey," said Grandma Rubia softly, but it contained firmness, "Grandma hang up, huh?"

"Wait!" hold Alicia down, "At least, say my regards to her."

"He's sleeping?" Alicia was excited again, "Picture her and give it to me!"

"Yes-yes," Grandma Rubia doesn't mind, "Grandma shut down first, huh?"

"Yes!" alicia's voice sounded cheerful. He said a farewell prayer and then reminded, "Wait for the picture."

Phone stops. Rubia's grandmother photographed Alice as she promised. The little girl was very amused and cute while sleeping. There was no aura of maturity emanating from him as usual. She looks like a girl her age.

"grandmother?" Alice awoke as soon as Grandma Rubia finished photographing her, but she was still sleepy. The eyes adjust the intensity of the light entering it.

"You have greetings, Alice," Grandma Rubia immediately fulfilled her trust. Alice stared in wonder still in a sleepy condition.

"From who?" tanyanya.

"Someone who really wants to see you" replied Grandma Rubia. Before he could continue his explanation, Alice had already fallen asleep first. Rubia's grandmother carried him to the room and dropped him on the bed.

"Grandmother, she looks very tired" said Akilla who had met Grandma Rubia in the middle of the road and decided to come along, "Will she be able to bear all her burdens?"

"Grandmother wishes she had escaped that fate" said Grandma Rubia who then took Akilla out of Alice's room, "Grandmother does not want her to fate like the previous princesses. May he grow well until the end of his life."

"Grandma, she'll survive, right?" Akilla asked worriedly. His head was down while walking. His index finger twisted the end of the veil he was wearing. He was really worried about his cousin.

"He certainly can" Grandma Rubia replied optimistically, "He has us. Aren't we going to help and support him?"

"Hm," Akilla straightened her head then nodded steadily. He pulled out his twin dagger from his waist and looked at him sharply. Right now, he was in a secret training that Anna had gone through before. He did not want to lose to Aria and her other friends. He also wanted to protect his little cousin.

Rosemary will support Alice in the bureaucracy. Aristia will support Alice in diplomacy. Mainne will support Alice in education and culture. Aria will support Alice in the military. Akilla was determined to support his cousin from behind the shadows and information gathering, although in fact he would be in the same position as Rosemary later.

"You good friends" said Grandma Rubia, "Alice did not choose you wrong. That way, grandma will not worry anymore to leave it. Keep fighting together and don't forget that God will accompany you every step."

"Yes, I will remember Grandma's message and pass it on to friends," Akilla saluted Grandma Rubia and said goodbye.

When Akilla was no longer seen in front of Grandma Rubia, Anna came and delivered a letter. It was a candle-stamped letter from Derrick. Although it is the farthest from the Duchy vi Alverio region, the letter is the first to reach its destination due to the priority that Marchioness van Ryvat has.

The old woman guarding the westernmost border of the Kingdom of el Vierum opened the letter she received in her office. As soon as he finished reading, he immediately replied to him and agreed to the alliance preparation proposal that his grandson had made.

"Anna, tell this to Derrick immediately" said Marchioness van Ryvat, "I've been wanting to have a close conversation with my stiff grandson for a long time. She made big surprises just like her sister. Besides, it's been a long time since we last met. He always had reason to be busy if invited here. You crazy work boy. Workaholics."

Anna listened to all of Marchioness van Ryvat's scolding until it was over. He resigned and immediately forwarded the letter to a post at the Saville Trade Union. The letter came less than three days later.

Derrick was not surprised by the speed of communication that weighed his grandmother's relationship with the Saville Trade Union. That's really helpful. He also immediately prepared. Now, it was his turn to head to the western border region of the Kingdom of el Vierum.
