Queen Sword's

Eps 17 Rewarding Family Greetings

The next day at the dinner table in Duke's castle, the spacious table was occupied by only two men, Duke Verano and his son Jasson Verano, who were enjoying their breakfast. The Duke looked at his grim son's face.

"What's wrong with you?" he said while cutting the steak and feeding his mouth.

"I was annoyed with Rubia, she was bothering me who was trying to get close to Princess Marquees" he grumbled as he cut her throat violently.

"Indeed the child was born to disrupt our grand plans" he said coldly.

"What about Auntie?"

"The woman has betrayed us, what a useless woman, she can't even hold her own word"

"Dad is right, Mother and child are so useless, how do we finish them off at the same time?"

"There is no need to act in a hurry, Dad already has a plan, soon we will hear the good news" the duke smiled cunningly.

"Hihi, really?"

****

Princess Rubia who had prepared in her elegant white knight dress sat down with the King and Queen in the dining room to enjoy breakfast together, an awkward and silent atmosphere, and a, because it is a meal with one family after seven years because today is a joint meal that should be attended by the future son-in-law of the King,it was supposed to be done as a sign that the Crown Princess' fiancee had officially entered the King's family, no matter what happened but Axel Harington was late.

Before long, the nineteen-year-old man came with a worried look on his face "Greetings to the imperial Sun and Moon, sorry I'm late Your Majesty" he said as soon as he entered the room and looked down.Thanks to his arrival, the atmosphere came back to life.

"It's okay Sir Harington, did something happen?" the king said casually.

"It's not important, Your Majesty, you don't have to worry"

"Hoho, okay, please enjoy the food, hopefully it matches your taste"

"Of course Your Majesty"

They started breakfast quietly, occasionally King and Axel chatted lightly, in a short time Axel seemed to be able to adjust to the King, that's because basically Axel has a supple and friendly nature, Axel glanced at Princess Rubia who was sitting next to him, as usual the Princess looked indifferent, even the Princess looked uncomfortable even though she did not show it directly, as usual, while the Queen who ate gracefully and elegantly once in a while smiled at him without saying much, Axel began to feel that the situation of the three people was truly unusual, because Axel himself grew up in a harmonious and loving family, the atmosphere is completely inversely proportional to the current situation.He only thinks positively, he suspects that is how the family of a King who maintains his dignity

After finishing breakfast, Axel and Rubia head to the temple, in addition to checking the routine health of the Princess, the two of them who had just become engaged had to visit the temple officially to ask for the Goddess's blessing so that their relationship could bring good luck to the Empire.

Rubia and Axel got into the same carriage, they sat facing each other.

"Your Majesty, what ring are you wearing? It looks like an ancient relic" Axel said with a smile.

Rubia turned her hand to look at the ring "Do you really want to ask me why I'm not wearing our engagement ring?" Rubia glanced at the ring on Axel's finger which looked even more radiant.

"Ah hehe.. turned out you were aware of it, so what was the reason?"

"I forgot" he said with a face like saying it was nothing.

"What does your ladyboy not remind?"

"Here you go, it's just my fault"

"Alright, forgive me for demanding you so much" he crossed his legs and faced the horse-drawn carriage window.

Rubia glanced at him, she felt guilty for suddenly arriving the man instead apologized even though he was innocent.

"I'm the one who should be sorry, I'm sorry Sir Harington I'll wear it next time"

"Your Majesty.."

"Silent" said firmly Rubia and she began to be vigilant, Axel also acted alert.

Srak srak. swiiyinggggggg, someone shot his arrow at the horse carriage.Kusir stopped the carriage suddenly because the horse was surprised to make Rubia and Axel almost fell.

"Heart of Your Majesty's heart" Axel held the hand of rubia who was about to fall.

Dame Fiona shouted "Stay inside Your Majesty, this is assault"

Axel looked confused as well as anxious "What is going on? You wait inside His Majesty I will help the knights" he said and rushed out of the carriage. Rubia opened the curtain of the carriage, people in all black clothes whose number was more than 70 people had surrounded the chariot and palace troops, the knights who only numbered five people looked overwhelmed with mercenaries.

"Based on Uncle Damn" Rubia murmured, she wiped her ring and the instant Ferderick appeared before her.

"What the hell is this, Your Majesty, you said you'd only call me at night" he grumbled at Rubia's sight.

"I'll explain later, help me finish that guy off"

Ferderick was really surprised by the situation, but he could not think much, he got out of the horse carriage and slashed the mercenaries with a single attack that could hit more than five people. Rubia got down from the horse-drawn carriage and raised her sword. When Rubia came out with several swift arrows attacking her from a distance, Ferderick who realized it immediately advanced in front of Rubia and protected her, the arrows could not penetrate the reddish aura emanating from Ferderick's sword.

Having felt safe Rubia swung her sword with him freely while Ferderick blocked the arrows that kept coming.

"His Majesty" Shouted Axel beside him when someone was about to attack him from behind, Axel blocked the man until his hand was scratched by a mercenary sword.

Rubia grew angry and she began to lose her wits, her anger peaked, she killed the man blindly, her blue eyes twinkling with twinkle turning reddish after seeing the amount of blood that soaked her sword. Ferderick noticed Rubia who looked strange as the knights looked at him with horrified gazes.

Ferderick held Rubia's hand "Reserve yourself Your Majesty" Rubia said.

Rubia immediately controlled herself, as soon as she realized she looked around, The white clothes she was wearing had been filled with countless splashes of blood, everyone was looking at her with horrified gazes, Rubia looked before her, it turns out that he attacked his own knight, Rubia dropped her sword because she was too shocked by what he had just done unknowingly. Rubia runs away from people, Axel calls her out of concern for her reaction, which he sees, but Rubia ignores him and stays away.

Dame Fiona looked at Ferderick and hinted with her eyes to catch up with Rubia.Fiona checked her sprawled knight after being attacked by Rubia, fortunately the man was still breathing and could still open his eyes.

"Already, let's go back to the palace to treat the wounded, remember.do not talk carelessly" said Fiona, warning.

Fiona approaches Axel "Are you okay Mr Harington?"

"Yes, I'm fine with only minor injuries, but Princess?"

"Your Majesty will be fine, let's go back to the palace first" he turned to the other "hurtful help"

"Good"

"Hey, who's the Swordmaster?" whispered someone.

"Let's see, she's really great"

"That's right"

Thanks to Ferderick's unexpected appearance, the knights only talked about the mysterious figure who had helped them and forgot about Rubia acting strangely.
