The Crown Prince suddenly felt an unwearing air in the Hall where his internal meetings took place. As he circled his eyes all over the room, the air not wearing it instantly disappeared without a trace.
Henry who saw the strange gurgle of his master became astonished and walked closer to the Crown Prince's seat.
"Your Majesty! You seem to be looking for someone, who are you looking for Your Majesty? " ask Henry half-whispered by lowering his face to the Crown Prince's ears.
"I suddenly felt an unwearing air in this Hall of Henry! When I looked for it, it disappeared without a trace! I'm afraid that some intruder broke into this palace without our knowledge! " julian replied in half a whisper because their distance was not too close and not too far away.
Even so, their conversation would have no one to hear since Julian's seat was a few meters away from the Emperor's and Empress' thrones. Because of his status as Crown Prince, so Julian's chair is different from the other princes' seats. Julian sat to the right of the Emperor alone as he did not yet have a Crown Princess. To the left of the Emperor sat the Empress with the main concubine and then continued the princes starting from the first, second, third prince and the youngest daughter of the Emperor.
"Come, Your Majesty! Since then I only focused on the drought problem in Hime Village! But if it was an intruder, it would have been spotted by the shadow guard of His Majesty's Emperor! Or it could be that someone was in this Hall as well as His Majesty! " said Henry with his conjecture.
"Maybe! Yes, we'll talk about this again! " julian said with a flick of his hand so that Henry would end their conversation.
Seeing the Julian code, Henry's body was upright back to how it was and retreated a few steps back Julian.
"Hmm, my feeling is never wrong! That person must have had malicious intentions towards someone in this room! But to whom?? I have to thoroughly investigate who has evil intentions in this palace! " julian said inwardly as she sharpened her radar-like sensitivity.
Meanwhile, the person who was looking for the Crown Prince was gone when he realized the aura he had emitted was felt by someone else. He exited the palace so casually that no one knew of his arrival and departure because the palace guards thought he was one of the Imperial officials.
"I didn't think the boy was aware of the aura I was emitting earlier! Hehehe.. This is getting interesting Maxime! Looks like I want to play around first with your descendants! " the man muttered softly with a grinning smile.
Duke Airos came out of the Hall with his aide Freddy with an unpleasant look on his face. He encountered several regional leaders such as Duke Salomon and Duke Lausanne. The Grand Duke of Leicester was having an important conversation with the Emperor's Majesty in the sealed room of the Emperor.
"It seems as if your land minister has been very busy for the past few weeks, Mr. Duke! " duke Lausanne said after greeting Duke Airos.
"Like that Duke Lausanne! This problem makes my head hurt! I don't know what's wrong with Hime Village, where the land has always been fertile and never drought and barren like this! " replied Duke Airos with a sigh.
"You're right, Mr. Duke! Moreover, from the witches I heard also can't do much to help solve this problem! Not to mention we'll be facing winter in three weeks! " said Duke Lausanne with a concerned tone.
"You're right Duke Lausanne! Oh yes, by the way congratulations on the birth of your second son Duke Lausanne! " duke Airos said, extending his hand to shake his hand.
"Thank you so much for Duke Airo's words! This is our happiness after trying for almost 15 years after the death of our first daughter! " replied Duke Lausanne with a big smile.
"You and the Duchess deserve to be happy Duke Lausanne! Later there will be a gift shipment from me to your residence Duke! " duke Airos said sincerely.
"No need to bother Master Duke! Your words and prayers have made me happy! " said Duke Lausanne subtly refused.
"You know if I don't accept Duke's refusal! It's just a little gift from a friend! Besides my wife would be mad if I didn't send a gift to your son! " duke Airos said he did not want to be denied.
"You can always make me unable to wrinkle Master Duke! " said Duke Lausanne in a joking tone.
"of course! " add Duke Airos responded.
The two of them chuckled as they walked down the hallway of the palace towards the exit. Duke Airo's position is higher than that of the other Duke, because Duke Airos got the title based on his family's descendants. While the other dukes get the title because of their hard work against the Empire to the title of Duke by the Emperor. Duke Airo's position is equivalent to that of Grand Duke Leicester as the Queen's closest relative because Grand Duke Albert De Leicester is the elder sister of Empress Emilia Ruby Earl Emeraldy.

Sakura and Savira are currently still in the Imperial Capital, the city of Airones. They are now eating at a restaurant in the city after walking around the market while shopping.
"The food is good, brother! Even though it does not use a lot of spices it still feels good on the tongue! " sakura commented while eating grilled meat so voraciously.
"Of course, let alone big brother hear this restaurant is popular among the nobles of this country! Even you heard that travelers from the outer continent also often come just to taste the food in this restaurant! " savira answered with a small smile.
Sakura smiled widely in response to her brother's words until a plate of burnt meat was left in her meal.
They eat in a closed area because Sakura opens her veil and does not want her face to be seen by others.
Their personal servants also dined at separate tables while joking between them without disturbing the comfort of their Miss.
Sakura frowned seeing her brother not eating her salad and just stirring her up.
"Does sister still think of that poisonous woman's words? " ask Sakura suddenly while putting down her cutlery.
Savira turned to her sister while sighing deeply.
"Silver was astonished by Miss Salomon. We only get to know a glimpse of the upper class young Miss before you debutante. Not too much talk and too familiar with each other, but why does he feel like he has hatred for big brother! Even though you didn't see her, you know from the look in her eyes that Miss Salomon harbors a great hatred for our family especially the two of us! His face always had a friendly smile but his eyes held hatred! " complained Vira at length.
"Not only brother, I also know that his smile is fake! " sakura sahut relax.
"What??? So you also know that his hospitality is just pretend?? " ask Vira with a shocked face.
Sakura nodded her head to reassure her brother.
"So, I felt a bad feeling when I saw Miss Salomon's face! Somehow that face holds a lot of mystery veiled behind her beautiful face and friendly smile! Big brother suggested that we both always be careful when meeting directly with the woman even though accidentally! " vira said again giving her advice to Sakura.
"Huh, you don't know if she's a drama queen and a clever manipulative woman! I used to be fooled by his friendly face to do stupid things by being his lackey! For years he fooled me until I lost my son to that damn woman! But this time, my brother calmed down, Sakura who is now no longer the Sakura who used to be easily fooled with just a sweet smile full of theatrics! She is good at performing, then I will also perform and I will show you my experience as Sakura Princess Aerospace before I move to this time! " sakura's grin in her heart.
Seriate..
Sorry if there are often a lot of typos because this is the first time othors come out of their comfort zone to make a story with fantasy nuances like this. Although this is a fantasy story according to the imagination of the othor himself but the othor will still put the element of romance to make it more beautiful than other fantasy novels.
Check out the story because the name is also a fantasy element that is only fictitious behind, so do not be too put into his heart if there are words that do not fit your thinking.
Please understand if there are still many vocabulary that does not fit you because othor is still learning in this fantasy genre..
See you all... Happy reading☺☺☺
