"Baginda, Her Royal Highness the Princess was facing" said the Emperor's bodyguard in front of the room, Rubia immediately entered after getting an answer from the Emperor, while Ferderick and Axel waited in front of the Room, their faces both looked very tense.
PLAKKK! there was a loud sound coming out of the room before the door closed completely, it made the two men in front of the room clench their hands imagining what was going on to the Princess who was inside the room.
The Emperor's sharp eyes looked at Rubia who was standing before him, even Rubia did not seem to be in pain even though her cheeks had just been hit hard, it made the Emperor become very angry.
"Can't you wait for my death if you want to do something of your own accord?" the Emperor shouted, his screams were heard all the way to the outside of the room. Rubia just bowed with a stern face.
The Emperor pointed to Rubia's face "You! How dare you make such a fuss without my permission, what do you have that makes you this brave against the authority of the Emperor?"
"I'm sorry"
"Is that all you can say after trying to embarrass me? Don't you have a mind? Or are you looking forward to ruling the empire? It would be nice if I didn't have a child like you"
"I'm sorry"
"Is it true that you're apologizing? But your face shows no remorse for what you did, you really should be punished"
Of course because I have done the right thing.Just the law I, I have been prepared to accept the consequences of my actions even more than this.
"Guard on the outside, lock the Princess up in her castle and don't let her out without my permission!" the Emperor spoke aloud, then the guards on duty immediately escorted Rubia to his residence. Ferderick followed him from behind, as soon as Axel wanted to step following Rubia, the Emperor called out to him.
"Sir harington you there? Come in"Axel entered and sat before the Emperor.
"Because of the immature Princess she has troubled you so much, forgive me" the Emperor said with a guilty face.
"You don't need to apologize to me, Your Majesty, I'm honestly willing to obey Your Majesty's orders because I think He did the right thing even though the way was a little inappropriate"
"True, as her fiance you must have no choice but to obey her wishes, but I hope you can be more decisive in guiding the Princess to the right path, I hope for you a lot"
Apparently the Emperor did not want to hear that I was siding with the Princess and justifying what the Princess was doing.
"Your Majesty"
"Alright, you can go back to your place and help me keep an eye on the Princess"
"Okay, Your Majesty, please step down"
Axel came out of the Emperor's room, now he understood why Rubia hated him so much just because he claimed to defeat the princess before the Emperor, he has realized that what he did as a child greatly hurt the Princess' self-esteem, and had an impact until now.
Axel walked towards the Crown Princess's palace, until he was in front of the palace door which was tightly guarded by the guards, they immediately gave way for Axel to enter, he saw from a distance the Rubia lady who was compressing Rubia's cheek which was hit by the Emperor's blow with a bag of ice cubes.
"Greetings Your Highness the Princess" said axel greeting after arriving before Rubia.
"You're Axel? What was? sit down" Axel sat in front of Rubia.
"Lydia please get some tea for Sir Harington"
"Okay, Your Majesty" Lydia replied, giving the bag of ice to Ferderick who was standing behind Rubia.
"Let me compress Her Royal Highness's bruises" whispered Lydia in Ferderick's ear.
Ferderick felt bad but he had no choice, he stepped forward and knelt beside Rubia's seat.
"Excuse me Your Majesty" Ferderick said as he pressed the ice bag in his hand against Rubia's cheek.
"Awww. slow down Fer" Rubia was in pain with Ferderick's rough movements.
"Observe your heart, or let me compress Your Majesty" said Axel who had woken up from his seat.
Axel again sat down, but in fact he still did not want the bodyguard was very close to the daughter who was his fiancee, while he was never that close to the princess, he was not, but he could only endure his jealousy. Before long Lydia came to bring a teapot and a flower-carved cup, and she poured tea for them both.
"You okay what, Your Majesty? It looks very painful" Axel said as he continued to watch the wound on his cheek.
"Ahh.this is nothing"
"Did you already know it would be like this so you're very relaxed?"
"Of course, despite knowing this I would still make the same decision"
"It's a pity that we can't get this case to its root because all the witnesses have been executed without a trace"
"It's a shame to let the undercover criminals still roam freely, but the freedom of the people who are locked up there is more important, it's enough for me"
Axel smilingly looked at his face who thought of his people sincerely that "You will become a great leader Your Majesty"
"I hope it will be like that" Rubia smiled faintly.
"I didn't expect you to be punished, for some time you couldn't go out and train with the knights"
"That's not a problem Sir Hari-ahh Axel" rubia still rigidly called him by nickname.
"Of course it's a problem for those of you who are very diligent in practicing"
"The real problem is that I can't attend Dame Fiona and Sir Craney's wedding invitations tomorrow" he said.
"Ahh right, the entire army of knights will be present with alternating tasks, is it alright are you not present?"
"I'm very sorry for that but there's nothing I can do, Dame Fiona would understand if you were to convey my current situation?"
Looking at Rubia's disappointed look, Axel felt he had to do something for her, and he thought of one thing, "Your Majesty, I will ask His Majesty for permission to take you to the party as my partner, do you not mind?"
"Yes, of course if you'd like to work on it I'd be very grateful"
"Okay, Your Majesty, I'll make sure to get permission from Your Majesty"
"I trust you Axel" Axel's face met hearing his name called softly. Unknowingly, he continued to show his smile until he left from the face of Rubia.
"It's enough Fer, you can get up" Rubia held Ferderick's arm and stopped his hand compressing his wound.
Ferderick wakes up "Is it not sick, Your Majesty?"
"No, thanks to you I'm better, you can go back to the dormitory I'll rest"
"I'll go after you sleep Your Majesty"
"Alright, you can go in and sit inside after I clean up"
"Good"
