Morning Dew's

86

So this is where Yuki ends up. He had come out of the basket filled with vegetables that had already withered. The owner of the train plans to use the vegetables for his animal feed.

Yuki sat leaning against the large basket while cleaning the remaining vegetables that were stuck in her hair and body. After making sure everything was in order, Yuki tied up her hair and changed her clothes with the maid clothes she had stolen from the place to hang clothes in Prince Riana's palace.

Yuki tried her best not to make a scene. He did not want the owner of the horse carriage to be aware of his presence and instead turned to report to Prince Riana's palace. 

He sat down for a moment. Think of the next plan once it gets to town. While waiting for the train that brought him into the city, Yuki again opened the message paper written by the Dalto Nobles.

The frown on Yuki's face was clearly imprinted as He re-read the message he was holding.

The Dalto nobleman wrote, has found clues regarding the kingdom's rebel army and the recent rampant black magic.

He will investigate the clues, in hopes of clearing his parents' names. Also to avenge his Aunt's death.

The Dalto nobleman apologizes to Yuki, for ignoring Yuki all this time. He just wanted to focus on his goal of finding clues regarding the events ten years ago. Dalto's nobility firmly believed his parents were innocent. They must have had a reason why they had to kill everyone back then.

"If I don't make it tonight, please tell the government about my suspicions. But I hope now only the two of us know about this. I want to make sure of myself with my head for the sake of my parents and Aunt"

The last piece of grace that the Dalto Nobles wrote in his letter, left Yuki inexhaustible as to how He could be that close. Looking for clues of black magic alone. Is he tired of living.

Whoever committed the crime is a madman. 

Yuki certainly would not let the Dalto Nobles run the danger alone. 

When the train reaches the city, Yuki rushes to sneak out, as the Train pauses at a farm shop.

He quickly wanders the streets of the city, finding a chariot tenant who wants to take him to school.

Yuki breathed a sigh of relief when she finally arrived at the school. The school looks quiet. In addition because when He came school hours were ongoing, also almost half of the total number of students in this school have been returned to their respective countries for a while.

Yuki got off the horse carriage and paid the fare. He walked into the school area, greeted some of his acquaintances in passing. Yuki as much as possible was not too conspicuous, so that no one suspected that he came here by escaping from Prince Riana's room.

Yuki walked calmly avoiding the crowd. Walk towards the central park and turn down the hill near the horse race. Walk along the forest behind the school. Yuki believes the Dalto Nobles are in the hut of roses. He should be there soon to see her.

Yuki walked down the small river, walking steadily without a doubt. When Yuki had approached the rose hut of the Dalto Nobles, Yuki found the Dalto Nobles standing daydreaming on a boulder by the river.

There was a considerable inner struggle within the Dalto Nobles. Doubt slipped in his heart. Both of his eyebrows were clocked, showing his seriousness thinking about the problem he was facing.

He can't back down anymore. 

"Dalto's nobleman" called Yuki when He was close enough to the Dalto Nobles. 

The Dalto nobleman turned and was dumbstruck when he saw Yuki. Yuki ran towards the Dalto Nobles excitedly. He was very relieved, his efforts were not in vain. It's not too late to find the Dalto Nobles.

"Thank God, I can find you in time. I expected you to be here" Yuki said cheerfully as she reached the nearby Dalto Nobles.

"We better not talk about it" Yuki replied awkwardly.

"Who did you come here with ?" Asked the Dalto Nobles with a stern attitude. Yuki frowned at the attitude of the Dalto Nobles who were not happy to see him coming. 

"I came alone" Yuki finally said.

"Ohalone ?" Asked the Dalto Nobles in shock. He looked at Yuki in disbelief. Yuki scratched his non-itchy head. 

"I ran away from the Prince's palace" Yuki replied again feeling guilty.

"Snow ?!" Dalto's nobility was increasingly shocked to hear Yuki's confession. "You..." He doesn't even know what to say. His words were floating in the air.

"I escaped from the second floor using a cloth I tied to the bedpost. Never again discuss this. The story will be long if it continues. I didn't come here to show off my attempt to escape from Prince Riana's palace" Yuki continued to try to change the subject, He felt uncomfortable discussing this topic as it reminded him of what punishment awaited him if He returned later. 

"Does anyone know about your escape ?" The question of the Dalto Nobles still showed a feeling of anxiety. Yuki shook his head confidently.

Dalto's people took a deep breath. "Why can you be that close. This time you're so careless Yuki. Don't you know what the situation is now ?. Don't you think what danger awaits you out there.  You didn't think of it at all before you acted ?" 

"Why do you blame me. I'm here because I'm worried about you" Yuki said. "You're going on a suicide mission yourself, but you might as well tell me about my actions. Do you think your actions are much better than what I've done ?"

"I'm just going to check the truth not be careless like you" the Dalto nobleman denied.

"I didn't have much trouble coming here just to argue with you"

The Dalto nobleman knew, Yuki would not want to admit his mistake. So He turned away nonchalantly and walked down the big rock towards his cottage. "It's time, you'd better get home" 

"What ?" Yuki's question didn't understand. He followed in the footsteps of the Dalto Nobles and caught up with him right behind the Dalto Nobles.

When they had reached the terrace of the cottage, the Dalto Nobles bent down to tidy up the pre-prepared equipment on a wooden bench, inserting it into a cloth bag. Yuki peeked out from the back of the Dalto Nobles with curiosity.

"Where are you going ?" Ask Yuki again with a curious attitude. He continued to follow the Dalto Nobles who were busy preparing his belongings into the bag.

"Tonight the blue moon will appear with a perfectly round shape. I've got to get going now before it's too late. You better be home soon, in the afternoon. I can't take you home today" explained Duke Dalto as he placed his belongings in the bag.

"You don't need to drive me home" Yuki said casually.

"It can't. Now you quickly go home mumpung streets are still not dark" orders Noble Dalto relieved.

Yuki stared at the Dalto Nobles without a doubt. Then still in a calm tone He again said "I'll come with you"
