DESTINY GIRL

Visit to the Palace

Rey and Zigaz meet Wilma and Asgar.

" Son Rey. I found my brother. For the next time I will stay with him and be a healer here. He has 5 grandchildren and a son. I will not be lonely anymore "

" Of course grandma, do not forget to take care of your own health "

" This is your pocket I'm giving back. I'm afraid my grandchildren found the magic "

" Oh no need grandma...... Wear it..... The magic bag can only be used by grandmothers. Others will find nothing or abuse it. And it will disappear on its own if grandma also dies. So don't worry, use it for good" said Rey holding the hand of the grandmother who was about to take off her pouch.

" O.....really...... ? Then I'll treat you all to lunch. With these pockets, I could share anything with them " said Wilma's grandmother pointing to some homeless people sitting on the edge of the shop.

Rey, Zigaz and Asgar held their thumbs up at Wilma's grandmother.

They cheerfully walked into Trezzy's restaurant and ordered some food. Wilma's grandmother also ordered simple wrapped meals for homeless people. Then they eat while joking.

Suddenly Rey transforms into herself and sits closer to Asgar. Everyone looked at him in wonder.

" Uh...... What's wrong, miss ? " ask Asgar.

" There's Carol." whispered Rey slowly.

" Uho-uhuk...... Uhuk-uhuk...... " Asgar chokes. And that made Carol look.

" T.... Mr Asgar ? "

Carol stepped closer to their table. Rey immediately pretends to be friendly with Asgar. Carol instantly felt her chest tight. He stopped and saw a beautiful girl sitting next to Asgar. Is that her lover ? Then who was the old granny and the middle-aged man, was that his family ? Carol hesitated to approach. He was not sure about approaching Asgar.

" Miss...... Can I help you ? " ask the waiter who saw Carol just standing still.

" Oh..... Uh.... I'm.... I'm sorry, next time.... " Carol turned around.

" fiuuhh........... " Asgar breathed a sigh of relief. Rey laughed and sat back down.

" Why Asgar........ Isn't she pretty...... ? " ask grandma Wilma in wonder.

" That's not the problem, Grandma...... " Asgar evaded.

" Asgar's girlfriend is fierce.... ! " whispered Zigaz scoffed.

" Ooooh.......... He.he...he....... " Granny Wilma laughed.

" Romez....... " Asgar growling.

" he..ha..ha..... "

They continued eating and drinking until they finished. Then the waiter handed her the packaged rice that Wilma's grandmother had ordered. Asgar helped bring it. Wilma's grandmother shared it while walking home. Rey and Zigaz were still standing next to the restaurant.

" Are we going to the palace, Miss ? "

" I don't know..... What are we going to talk about there ? "

" Ehm....... No......... maybe just look around the palace ? "

" What if he sees me ? " ask Rey confused.

" Who is he ? What if he sees Miss ? Is there a problem ? " ask Zigaz did not understand.

" I finally found you.... ! " there was a cold male voice in front of Rey.

Rey turned her head and was surprised to see Prince Axel standing before her. (Position Zigaz next to Rey ).

Rey looked at him silently. Zigaz also looked at him in wonder. He doesn't know who the young man is in front of Miss Rey. But... seems...... The face of this young man was the same as that of a young mage trying to steal the power of holy light.

Zigaz swiftly pulled Rey into hiding behind him. Zigaz looked at the young man bravely. Axel furrowed his brows unhappily. Why is there always a barrier that will prevent him from having this girl. What is so special about this girl, makes her even more curious.

" Stop away." said Axel coldly.

" Who are you ? " question Zigaz was not afraid.

" Know or not, my job is to protect her "

" You........ "

Rey touched Zigaz's shoulder. They disappear into the dimensional space.

(" Shit.... ! ) Axel growls in anger because the man disappeared carrying his target girl. He immediately scanned the surroundings looking for traces of their magic.

" I'm sorry to bring you into the dimensional space, we can't fight among the crowd" Rey told Zigaz.

" I understand Miss. Wasn't she a young witch who intended to seize the power of holy light "

" Oh........ " Rey breathed a heavy sigh.

" Does Miss know him ? "

" Hmmm......... Asgar says he's Prince Axel, Xenia's brother.

" Haaahh......!. ...................... how will Miss have the heart to punish him ? " Zigaz isn't sure.

" I'll only act if he's looking for trouble first "

" ................... Sorry if I offended you, miss. Looks like Prince Axel is interested in Miss ? "

" Yes "

" That's good...... So Miss doesn't have to bother disguising herself anymore. What if we visit the palace now ? " zigaz's eyes glittered ignorantly.

Rey grins.

" all right.... "

They came out of the dimensional space and appeared in front of the palace gate. The guards soon met the Queen to announce their arrival. The Queen was surprised to be happy because the one who came turned out to be Princess Rey and her Guard.

He took her around the palace while chatting. By late afternoon, Axel came home with a sour face. He was tired of looking for Rey's tracks. When going through the window, Axel felt the presence of other witches around the palace. Immediately Axel flew around the palace and saw the Queen sitting in the backyard garden gazebo, chatting with someone he was looking for.

His eyes widened in delight, but dimmed back because the girl was with the middle-aged man. He was worried that if he joined the conversation, the man would complain about his attitude earlier. So Axel hid observing them from a hidden place.

Before long the girl said goodbye. Axel immediately met his mother who was still sitting in the gazebo.

" Mother.... "

" Oh...... Axel, where have you been ? "

" Mobile "he answered lazily.

If you had come sooner, you would have met Princess Rey "

" Daughter Rey..... ? who is she ? "

" He is the daughter of Cronos. The Eternal Sovereign Couple, Lord Astraco "

(" Duaarr....... ! " ) It felt like Axel heard a thunderbolt bursting into his head. He looked at his mother with disappointment, annoyance and heartache. Unexpectedly, the girl he was after turned out to belong to Lord Astraco.

" Ehm.... is there anything important with his arrival here ? " ask Axel to know.

" no...... The princess just visited "the Queen replied.

" Okay, ma'am, I'm going to rest "Axel, get back to his room.

Throughout the hallway his hands were clenched in anger. She did not accept Princess Rey as Lord Astraco's partner. He also thought that Princess Rey must have the privilege of being chosen as the spouse of Lord Astraco.

But why did he travel outside ? Shouldn't he be in Astraco preparing himself ? Hhh....... This was a chance for him to snatch Princess Rey. If necessary he will do something to undo their destiny.

Axel walked quickly towards his room. His lips smiled wryly at the thought of a bad plan. He no longer cared who Lord Astraco was and what the power of the magic kingdom was like.
