Queen Without Crown

Chapter 130 Go

Ningrum left her brother Bagas and Princess Juwita after agreeing to come another week. The girl stuck out her neck to see the two men waving at her.

Along the winding road on the slopes of the mountains, he looked at the blue sea in the distance. It was the Gulf of Sozo, the boundary of the Alsatian Kingdom. The bay borders the sea area with the Kingdom of Dewanata.

Diplomatic relations between the two countries have been cut for several years since King Bharata invaded the Royal League. But three years ago, the two kingdoms reopened diplomatic channels.

Now they work together in various fields and allow each of their citizens to visit each other.

Ningrum entered the territory of the Alsatian capital the next day. The night before he had stayed at an inn and continued the journey after breakfast.

"Dad." Whisper Ningrum when he was already at his father's bedside.

"Ningrum's? " Sheer Bagio blinked his eyes. Her appearance looks much older than when she met Princess Juwita at the Alsatian Palace.

"Dad, I found it. I found Brother Bagas. " Ningrum smiled with teary eyes.

"really? So. is he still alive? " Windy tears soaked the cheeks that began to wrinkle.

"Yes, Dad. He's still alive. " Ningrum laughed softly. He saw a happy look on his father's face.

"Then where is he? Didn't he come home?" Ask the man.

"That's something going on. " Ningrum approached and told her everything that happened to her brother and Princess Juwita.

After she finished telling the story, the girl looked silently at her father. He wanted to know the decision his father would make.

"We'd better catch up with your sister soon." The words of Tabib Bagio later.

"What do you mean, Dad? Are we leaving this house? "

"If what happens is what your brother said, then our lives will not be safe. Dad was actually a little suspicious when I wasn't allowed to examine King Sagar's body. " Sheer Bagio said suspiciously.

"Then, when are we going? " Tanya Ningrum's.

"As per your agreement, next week we meet them. Before that, you'll leave the duty to clear up all our affairs. "

"Good Dad. "

Within a few days Ningrum packed the important items and documents. He also handed over the drugstore his father owned to his assistant. While the house they occupy immediately he sold to a housing agent at a price slightly below the market price.

After everything was settled, they immediately left for the city of Otep. The faces of the two looked tense due to the tight guard in the capital due to the unstable situation of the palace.

When they reached the tavern where Ningrum had last met Bagas and Princess Juwita, the atmosphere seemed to be deserted. There were only a few visitors in the shop.

"Why haven't they come yet? " Task Physician Bagio restlessly. Several times the man observed the door who knew his son would step in.

"Quiet, Dad. It's still morning. It took them hours to walk here." Ningrum tried to calm his father down.

Physician Bagio nodded. He sipped the tea served in a plain white ceramic cup.

Suddenly the shop door opened. A young man stepped in followed by a girl wearing a head covering.

"Dad." The young man's exclaim made Physician Bagio put his cup back on the table.

The body of Physician Bagio shook violently. It felt like he was dreaming to see his son standing right in front of him. The son he thought was gone.

"Dude! " Luckily the man tried to stand up. But before he could take a step, the young man before him had already hit him.

"Dad. Excuse me. " Say Bagas. He is unable to speak. Her lips are like a mute. The longing she had been harboring for months had already erupted.

Tabib Bagio patted his son's back. He was relieved to see Bagas again. I can hug him again. These few months were a torture for him. Finding a corpse with her child's necklace is a recurring nightmare that makes her fall ill.

"Daddy is glad to see you." Tears soaked the face of Tabib Bagio as well as Bagas. The young man was crying.

Princess Juwita who saw it also quietly wiped away the tears. He didn't know when he could reunite with his family. The look on the faces of those he loved filled his mind.

Miss Sekar was very surprised when that morning did not find Eldrige in her room. The woman searched every corner of the house but did not find the man. He questioned all the servants but no one saw Eldrige.

"Where are you, Eldrige? " Miss Sekar was very worried about Eldrige because the Alsatian soldiers would definitely go after him. But not only was that what worried him, he was afraid that Eldrige would find Princess Juwita.

"I should have gotten rid of the girl and made sure she was a long way from here."

Miss Sekar then took her horse and drove the beast very hard. He went to the forest where Eldrige and Princess Juwita fell in the ravine.

When he reached the edge of the abyss, a black horse was tethered to a tree branch. Miss Sekar recognized the horse as one of the inhabitants of his palace. But the woman did not see the horseman.

"Don't you jump down, Eldrige?" Miss Sekar became very anxious. He immediately jumped off the back of his horse.

When he looked down, the gorge was hundreds of meters deep and looked steep. But he saw no one there.

"Squeaky. Where are you going Eldrige? "

The four-man horse-drawn carriage now stopped at the port. Tabib Bagio paid a sum of money to the coachman and told him to promise not to tell anyone about their departure. The coachman nodded obediently. After all there was no benefit for him to talk about this to others.

An officer came asking for documents and cliches around the purpose of their departure. After passing through the complicated bureaucracy, they were finally allowed to board a ship that would cross to the port of Samandar in the territory of Dewanata Kingdom.

There were not many items that the four people had brought. Just a few pieces of clothing, money and medical equipment.

On the ship they stared once more towards the land that was getting longer and further away they had left. They will now try to live in a place they have never known. But they feel optimistic that they can hang their future there.

The ship sailed for two days. They were very lucky the weather was in good condition. The waves were also stable so the ship sailed quietly.

From a distance the mainland Kingdom of Dewanata looks beautiful. Coconut trees are whistling in the wind along the beach.

As they descended the ship's stairs and set foot on the yellowish-colored sandy soil, Princess Juwita saw a scene very much different from where she came from.

There are some brownish-skinned men with eyes shaped like typical bay leaves are busy transporting goods. Their wavy black hair was perched on top of the forehead decorated with white paintings. Their upper bodies were mostly undressed, only cloth pants that covered the bottom of the navel to the ankles.

They look amazing, very manly. The men in Elfian will look feminine if juxtaposed with them. Princess Juwita smiled shyly when she realized she was looking at them. The girl quickly lowered her gaze.

A burly young man approached the group and offered a horse-drawn carriage. Physician Bagio bid the price that the young man mentioned. They bargained for each other for a while. Then after getting the agreed price they immediately went up to the horse carriage pulled by two horses.

The coachman took them to a very beautiful inn. The inn building was of carved stone and decorated with gold-colored ornaments.

"That's lovely. " Ningrum smiled happily as they entered the inn.

A few long-haired braided female servants greeted them. The servants wore long silk cloths emblazoned with gold thread embroidered to cover their exotic bodies.

Deftly the servants served delicious dishes that made the guests from the other country happy.

Princess Juwita and Ningrum got a room on the second floor with a view of the sea from the balcony. While Bagas and his father occupied the room right next to their room but the view from their room was lush trees because their balcony faced the garden.

"I think I like this place. " Said Princess Juwita while staring at the ocean.

"me too. This place is absolutely amazing. " Ningrum is feeling very happy now. His whole family got together and is now in a very beautiful place.

Tok..

The knock on the door made the two girls turn their heads. Ningrum immediately opened the door and saw her brother standing there.

"You guys stay in the room. Dad and I will go for a while to look around the house for sale. Hopefully we can get a comfortable home soon. "

"Yes, brother." Answer the two girls in unison. I can't wait to explore this new place soon.

Until the night Miss Sekar still hasn't found Eldrige. Disappointed, he was forced to return to his home. His heart is so broken.

He went back to check on Eldrige's room but the man wasn't there. With a sigh the woman went into her room. He sat up on the bed.

"Where are you, Eldrige? " The woman groaned in annoyance.

Suddenly he saw his closet open. The woman rushed to check it out. His clothes are still neat. But his eyes widened when he opened the bottom and did not find the pouch belonging to Eldrige. The whip he hid there was also none.

"Bad! " Needs.

The woman immediately ran out. Like a possessed man he questioned his servants. He could not accept that anyone dared to go into his room and take something from his closet.

"I'm sorry, Miss. We really don't know." The waiters started crying.

"I can't hire liars. Get the fuck out of my house!" Dismissed.

The frightened servants ran out. They don't think about unpaid wages. They know that Miss Sekar works for the palace. And the palace is now governed by ruthless people.

"Eldrie! " The servants still heard the shouts of their former master as they stepped out of the gate.
