The Bloom At Royal Harem's
25. Mark
Nachella stepped down, down the hallway of the palace that seemed quiet, only a few servants were seen passing by while carrying cleaning tools in his hands. Until his gaze was fixed on a man who was swinging his sword, splitting the wind that was relentlessly striking him.
Without him noticing, his feet slowly walked over to the man. Through snowflakes that fall to the earth.
"What's wrong?" The man asked coldly a moment after Nachella's distance was left a few steps away from him.
The man's gaze was still focused forward, regardless of the presence of Nachella who was beside him.
"Almost, at the same time deliver Kak Vio" said Nachella no less cold.
"Come with Princess Vionna" said the faithful man with a sword in his hand.
"No, even Brother Vio doesn't mind my call. So why are you fighting it?" Nachella asked who was slightly protesting with Felix's cold words even exceeding the snow today.
Felix stopped the swing of his sword. Now his gaze was straight towards Nachella who saw the scenery of the place around him that looked beautiful in the fill of various trees that had turned snow-white.
"Because he's my brother and his status is much higher than yours" explains Felix.
"Yes, it's up to you. But I'll stick with my stance" Nachella said, not to lose.
After the conversation, the two just kept silent while enjoying the cold air arising from the snow falling like endless curtains. Until a Felix move diverts Nachella's attention.
"Wear this coat, the cold air is not good for your health" Felix said as he placed a bear fur coat on Nachella's shoulder, made him immediately drown because his tiny body is covered perfectly by the coat that was made specifically for Felix.
"thank you. Then I'll go first. Greetings Your Highness the Crown Prince" said Nachella who immediately sauntered away after finishing saying his greetings. Leaving Felix with a faint smile on his face.
"He didn't say hello" Felix said.

Nachella POV's
"Princess Nachella and Princess Vionna have returned" said the gatekeeper shortly after the horse-drawn carriage I and Brother Vio stopped right in front of the gates of the Kingdom of Courlage.
For quite a long time the carriage walked, before finally stopping in front of the three men who greeted me with both hands open in front of them.
So, which one should I choose?, I thought.
I saw the three men who were endlessly smiling displaying their handsome faces which would have been famous throughout the kingdom and even the empire.
I can see, in their hands each carrying a bouquet of flowers with various types and shapes. Until my gaze stopped right in a blue bouquet that contained blue and white roses decorated with small edelweiss flowers around it. Very lovely.
I walked over to the man holding the bouquet with the big smile I put on. My right hand moved to pick up the bouquet which I then carried my arms, before my left hand holding Kak Vio's hand brought him in without returning a helping hand to the three men who were now frowning because of me.
"Chella, where are you going?" The screams of Leon I ignored before there was another shout coming from the two other most perfect creatures of god.

"Hey, Chella you rejected us but instead you took her hand" protested Alaskar who stopped me from entering the room.
I smiled faintly which I then hid behind a bouquet that I deliberately placed right in front of my face.
"Why indeed? I'm free to make my choice, aren't I, Brother Vio?" I asked without sin.
I can see the three men who began to sulk making me and Kak Vio can no longer hold our laughter which was forced out.
"Haha, you are very funny" said I who immediately embraced the father, Brother Leon, and Kak Alaskar alternately, until a reddish tinge appeared on each cheek of the three.
That's what I can describe about their current behavior. Who sometimes act cold like a refrigerator when in front of many people, but behave childish when near me. I feel like taking care of 3 giant babies who are so handsome that to scold them I feel like I will not be able to.
So goddess, please don't add my big baby again. I hope that the man I like and have a match with me will not have the childish nature of them, I asked in my heart.
"All right, brother, I'll let you in first. I was tired after 8 hours of travel" explained me who was indeed traveling towards the palace of the Visilion Empire had a considerable distance and spent at least 3 hours. But because the weather is not supportive, the trip was 1 hour slower.
"Yes, okay. Happy ber.."
"Don't you just not wear a bear coat and since when did you like a coat like that? The last time you always asked for fox and wolf coats, those coats also look really big on your body" Kak Alaskar said, cutting off Kak Leon's words.
"Ah, right too, Chella. As I recall, I never bought you this coat" said my father with a hand that raised slightly using two fingers of Felix's hand-drawn coat.
"Felix, are the words of father and Alaskar right?" Ask Leon as if he was hooked.
Well, what do I have to answer?, I thought to myself.
"Princess Vionna, what was my sister using when she went with you to the palace?" Brother Leon who seems very impatient waiting for my answer.
"It looks like Chella was only wearing a velvet coat when on the train" said Kak Vio.
Dead, I thought Brother Vio would save me, my mind grimacing.
"Ah, this. Brother must have seen it wrong. I brought this coat. It's just that when the train I didn't wear it" I said trying to avoid the facts.
"That's true, but it looks like I.."
"There's no way my sister's just wearing a velvet coat. I would be frozen if I wore that thin clothes in this cold air. Look at the snow falling more and more, the scenery is very beautiful" I said turning their attention to any direction.
Until my back feels hot that I immediately turn to face Leon who is looking at me sharply with a full gaze probing.
"All right, you rest. Cold air is not good for your health" said Leon.
"Surprisingly, do men use dictionaries to talk to women?" I muttered as I recalled Felix's words.
"What are you talking about, Chella?" Ask Kak Alaskar.
"Ah no, Brother" said I who went straight into the room avoiding a conversation that would further depress me.

POV Author
In the other corner of the Visilion Empire. In the chaos, a messy room filled with broken glass and the corpse of a person hanging from a black tendril that a woman pulled out.
The woman looked messy with a trace of crying running down her cheeks before a deafening laughter rang out from her mouth. His eyes slowly opened displaying the same dark black netra as the tendrils he had taken out from within his body.
Brak!
His banting on the corpse of a person with clothes that have been tattered. The person's body appeared bluish wrinkled, as if only bones and skin remained.
"Why hasn't that fool been acted on? I still want to play with my dolls like I used to" said the woman.
His hands fluttered in the air, showing a woman in the middle of a man's coat. His teeth were churning to each other, seeing a sickening event that had never happened before.
"Why has the flow changed?" Ask the woman.
"It should have been the same way back then" he continued.
"You're gonna die. Either die in the hands of the fool or die in my hands" said the woman again before her body disappeared splashing with black clouds drifting through the forest.

Bird chirps welcome the bright and cold morning that has become a routine the past week.
Silence is created at a dining table occupied by 3 people, there are only the clangs of spoons and forks that collide with the plates. Until an attention diverts the three, not least a young man who immediately rushed out of the room.
His footsteps widened, as he spent time running until he saw a woman in a peach dress attached to his body.
"Greetings Your Highness the Crown Prince" said the woman who lowered her head 90 degrees.
"Regend! What's up?" Asked the man it was cold which was certainly very different from his heart which was currently racing like a horse in a racecourse.
"Here, I want to return this coat. Thank you and yes, I washed this coat" said the woman who was none other than Nachella.
"Take it, I'm not used to wearing things that have been used by others" said Felix who immediately sauntered away without saying a word, again.
"Eh, but.."
From a distance, seen a couple who saw the behavior of their son who was playing the role of tug of war with Nachella. They slowly walked over to Nachella who was staring at Felix's departure alone.
"Take it, Princess Nachella. Felix is stubborn. Even I whose mother just felt dizzy with her behavior" said Rova who came with Andreas who embraced his shoulder.
Nachella smiled faintly at Rova's words. He immediately greeted and greeted the two.
"My husband, our son's grown up. Can we match her with Princess Nachella? I think Princess Nachella is kind and polite. So I think he's the best candidate to be with our son, Felix" Rova said.
"You're right my wife. Maybe I'll talk to Alexander about it" Andreas said, confirming his wife's remarks. Afterwards the two threw smiles at each other staring at the expanse of plants filled with thick snow.
⚜⚜
In Felix's room. The man was busy slamming his pillows and bolsters which he then arranged and slammed back. His strange activities have been going on since his first meeting with Nachella a few days ago when he gave her a bear coat.
Either when remembering the incident, a strange gelanyar appeared in his heart that immediately warmed up and the day turned sweet as if there was a sugar fairy sprinkling sugar right above his head.
Just like before, after the waiter announced Nachella's presence, the man immediately ran over to Nachella who was standing facing the park which was rained in snow.
"Agh, I thought he was going to say a sweet word" Felix annoyed.
But his mind warmed up again, when he remembered the beautiful face and his tiny body wrapped in a ballgown peach with a rose motif on the tail. Her blond hair was draped with a crown of flowers attached to her head. Makes it look like a flower fairy who fell along with the fall of snow to the earth.
Unknowingly, Felix smiled considering his meeting with Nachella which made his heart beat fast.
"Goddess, what is this feeling? I can't get rid of it and I can only add it to my meeting with Nachella" Felix said, holding his beating heart.
He slammed his body into the bed, letting his mind rest along with his day filled with flower gardens.
