Prince Sera turned towards the door. Clapping his hands twice in the air. A guard came in. Ready to take orders.

"Bring Him in" Prince Sera ordered.

The guard bowed for a moment saluting. Then walk out of the room. Yuki looked at Prince Sera with a thumping heart. He held back his desire to ask Prince Sera. The door opened slowly. Two guards came in flanking a man walking in the midst of them.

Yuki was suffocated in disbelief when he recognized the figure the guards were carrying.

"Rena" exclaimed Yuki in disbelief.

Rena bowed her polite body. "My respect to Prince Sera and Princess Yuki" 

Prince Sera raised his hand to receive the homage of Rena. Both seem calm. Yuki looked at the two alternately with a puzzled face. 

"How can ?. Aren't you busy preparing for your wedding" asked Yuki in confusion. Yuki frees Rena as a servant to become a commoner. Allowing Rena to marry and build a household so that she no longer has the obligation to serve Yuki. But instead of preparing for the wedding, Rena appears in front of Yuki, at the palace of Prince Sera in Argueda country.

Yuki rubbed her eyes, hoping she wasn't dreaming.

"He introduced himself as your personal servant to the palace's Gate Guard" Prince Sera explained.

"The job of the servant is to follow and serve wherever Princess Yuki goes" Rena bowed for a moment in a disgraced manner.

"But I've set you free, you're getting married anyway" 

"As long as I'm not officially married. I still carry the mandate of Prime Minister Olwrendho to serve and care for the Princess"

Yuki held her breath. Don't know what to say. He felt moved because Rena wanted to take a dangerous risk by entering the palace of Argueda country. His status as a person from the land of Garduete must have kept him under close supervision when entering the palace. Rena's loyalty makes Yuki's heart full.

He got off the bed. Approaching Rena who is still bowing her body. Without a second thought, Yuki immediately hugged Rena tightly. "Thank you for coming here" whispered Yuki sincerely.

Yuki looked at Prince Sera who kept watching Yuki secretly. He gave a grateful smile to Prince Sera, as Prince Sera allowed Rena to meet with Yuki.

Prince Sera allows Rena to accompany Yuki. Yuki feels grateful, although Rena will still be closely watched by Prince Sera. With Rena's presence beside Yuki, Yuki had become much more relaxed. At least He has someone He can make a place to tell stories. A person who did not look at her hatefully as if Yuki was a disgrace that should be removed from the palace environment immediately.

Prince Sera could see what Yuki was feeling. So he didn't say anything more. 

 

From Rena, Yuki finally finds out what happened at the border after Prince Sera kidnaps him from in front of the royal camp of Argueda. Prince Riana, who was intercepted by the forces of Prince Sera, managed to escape. Lucky the Nobles of Xasfir followed the Prince with his troops. There was a battle but not to inflict severe damage on both troops.

Prince Riana is chasing after Prince Sera. But Prince Sera's distance is too far to stop. When Prince Riana and his troops made it to the sea of Amora, the royal ship Argueda carrying Yuki was already sailing in the middle of the sea. 

Prince Riana turned around to avoid the pursuit of Argueda's troops who tried to drive into Argueda. In the midst of the chase, Prince Riana disappeared and until now her whereabouts are unknown.

He was just grateful that there was no significant bloodshed at the camp. Yuki is very worried about the refugees there as well as the state of Prince Riana.

Where is Prince Riana now ?.

"The refugees are getting adequate help. Now they are starting to rebuild their lives" said Rena calmly. 

They were both sitting in a gazebo in the middle of the pool. The rain fell just now. Yuki held her hand up into the air, to feel the raindrops carried by the wind nearby.

From afar the guards secretly monitored Yuki and Rena's movements. Both know they're being watched. So they sat quietly and did not make any suspicious movements.

"What about the kids ?" Ask Yuki later.

"Children who still have parents or relatives who are willing to care for them, are returned to their Family with education and life guarantees from the country. While children who do not have anyone will be taken to a special institution in the form of government to be cared for and cared for until they are old enough to live independently" 

Yuki nodded his head understandingly. She calmed down when she heard about the fate of the children in the refugee camp.

"Rena, can you tell me about this country ?" Ask Yuki slowly.

"Of course the Princess"

 

 

The land of Argueda is one of the four great countries in the world. It is the strongest land besides Garduete Country. Garduete country is growing rapidly thanks to the natural wealth in the form of gold and marine products in his possession. Guarded by Goddess Skakala, Goddess of prosperity is said to be the twin sister of Lord Aiswara, the patron god of the State of Garduete.

Today, the land of Argueda is ruled by King Jafar Madza. Like King Bardana, King Jafar also had many wives and lovers in addition to a main Queen who accompanied him.

The main queen of King Jafar is Queen Warda. The woman who was the third wife of King Jafar before He was appointed as the Grand Queen. Prince Sera's birth mother. Queen Warda at that time managed to raise her position by removing the two wives of King Jafar who was first married. Yuki was very surprised when she heard that. 

"The Kingdom of Argueda has different rules than the Land of Garduete. This power struggle is much more complex and cruel. The strong survive. If you do not have the strength or support, it is better to find peace" said Rena with a serious face. "So I beg the Princess to heed my warning. All for the good of the Princess. In this palace there are three tragedies that are always repeated throughout the government. The first is death by poison, competition for women and the struggle for position. Can the Princess remember this clearly ?"

Yuki looked at Rena for a moment. From the expression that Rena showed, she knew this problem was not as simple as it seemed.

"Is the power struggle so creepy ?" 

"Queen Warda killed two wives of King Jafar and his children once Prince Sera was born. If He does not do so, He and Prince Seral will be killed. Until now, Queen Warda was very strict against royal descendants from King Jafar. Everything he did to protect himself and his biological children"

Yuki does not believe that the palace conflict in Argueda is like the story in the royal films he watched. "Was not King Jafar angry when his wife and son were killed ?"

"Hamba did not dare to speculate about King Jafar. What I heard, Queen Warda was attacked on the way back from home, after giving birth to Prince Sera. He and Prince Sera almost died if that time did not meet Princess Ransah"
