The Emperor's Prisoner

45

In accordance with the instructions from Kenzo, tonight the four of us stayed at the main headquarters. At dusk the waiter there said that tonight would be a dinner together, the reason is still not clear. The waiter simply asked to be prepared.

 

We were divided into 2, because vero had to spend the night alone in his cottage, she was the only woman in our entourage. So it has to be separated. The three of us became one. Even so, the two huts are still in one area. After a short chat in the gazebo this afternoon, we went straight into the cottage and started to clean up or rest.

 

“ Zuka, before getting into your group busy what?” Alba asked me to sit back in the living room by the fireplace.

“ I used to be a servant. After my family died, my sister and I looked for a close relative in Laqaka. But even happened that event”

“i also used to be a waiter as well, I think life now is much better. You'll feel it later”    

“ sorry in advance, are you also an orphan?” looking towards him. Afraid that this question might touch him.

“ all who work in groups are mostly orphans, those who have families will only come at a certain time to receive help from the chairman or during the group's regular meetings”

Oh, I just found out that this group system is quite popular. To provide assistance and to employ orphans.

“regarding the plan for the next few years, does the chairman provide special training to form the martial skills of its members?”

“ yes, but it is voluntary, there is no compulsion for members to participate in the mission. But just so you know, almost all the members are planning to come along. The chairman had already helped them with many things, so yes, they were so obedient to chairman”

“ oh yes,? “

“ yes, you've seen it yourself, the head man is so good”

 

It's true said Alba, since the beginning of the meeting was indeed the chairman of the person did not impose his will, so authoritative and quite firm. Not a typical person who is arrogant or hard-hearted. It was only fitting that the members of this group were so obedient and continued to grow. The family system they implement is so pronounced. That's how I've felt so far.

 

“ hey, no one's taking a shower, dinner tonight. Fix your appearance” Kenzo who just finished cleaning himself was quite chatty when he saw us relax.

 

“ alright, Zuka, don't forget to change your clothes” alba moved and went into his room.

The waiter gave us some clothes. The way they welcomed guests was so good. It is appropriate that either Kenzo or Alba look excited when starting to make a channel to the main headquarters.

 

Now starting to clean myself in the bathroom, I clasp the bracelet that has been attached to the hand. The mother's only legacy is the key to this mystery.

Finished wearing the clothes that have been prepared beforehand, immediately went out to meet Alba and Kenzo who had earlier called.

“ you're old too if you get ready” Kenzo starts fussing again, lately he looks easy emotion if talking to me. Criticizing and chattering. What could this be his true nature, the chatty kenzo. How not for long, I have to wear a breastplate and have to arrange my hair to resemble a man.

“ I overslept earlier” tried to reason normally.

“ base you here, ayoo the waiter has told her place”

 

The three of us left the cottage, on the way back to Vero. All four of us came to the meeting hall.

“ let's go, soon the event will start”

“ you're lucky today coincided with the chairman's wife's birthday, so we can feel the good food-good” Alba whispered to me. It's worth the welcome is quite excessive if only for the food delivery officer. It turns out that it is a special event.

“ emm, I did bring luck “ I replied cynically.

“ aye, you're this” Alba a little annoyed at my answer.

 

 

“ when you see food you're so shameless” right my guess, Kenzo's a chatty guy. The tone of speech is always cynical

“ at least I am not a chatty person and always criticize his friend”. Kenzo was silent.

 

Dinner has started, so there's no need to wait. Take all the delicious menus in large portions. My appetite is unbearable, it should be able to satisfy him.

“ vero eat” I deliberately gave him meat manu, even though this is my reason to take meat a second time.

 

I don't know what they're talking about, I just focus on eating and filling my stomach. Because of our position at the back, so can not see clearly what the event in front like.

“ I go to the toilet first” I permission, actually want to go back to the cottage. This feeling of fullness suddenly invited drowsiness on me. Want to go to bed soon.

“ you ate too much anyway, go, hurry back.”

 

Straight out of the hall, pretending to ask the waiter where the toilet is. Vero's eyes are still watching, so be careful. Fortunately, the direction was the same as the direction of the cottage. Walk leisurely so as not to invite suspicion.

 

On the way I saw a man come out of a room, from his stature it seemed to be Ares. Trying to chase him to just say hello but do not meet. The road's too fast. Finally forced to return to the cottage “ soon the peak event will begin, you okay?” faintly heard sounds from the room next to the hall.

“ is fine, every date this, makes me sad to remember them” female voice.

“ you calm down in a moment everything will end” that voice sounds like the chairman.

 

Out of curiosity trying to get close to the room, maybe I could figure out who the wife of this blue fire chief was, with slow steps towards the window that was at the side.

 

“ are you sure, the kingdom is not as easy as we think, especially with Enrick. Already many times doing the mission but continue to fail” the voice of the woman sounded so familiar, calm yet firm.

“ this time will not fail. “

I peeked out of the window. The woman's position was against the window. From her stature this woman was not fat, it seemed like her face was also pretty. Her long hair looks beautiful with several pairs of jewelry that complement it.

 

the chairman gently stroked the woman's back, then pulled her up, carrying her in an embrace. What a romantic sight. Shortly after, the woman changed her position to the window. I pulled the body a little to be invisible.

 

From the crack it could clearly see how the woman's face was. I watched for a long time from remembering that face, when I realized who that woman was suddenly my heart was heating up, my breathing instantly became tight, as tight as this heartbeat. Look away, try to calm down. Before finally confirming it once again whether my eyesight was indeed seeing it.

 

“ t,,t,, no, maybe,”

 

The chairman hugged the woman from behind, and was greeted with a sweet smile from the woman. A warm melt began to fall from my eyes, as if I could not believe what I was seeing. They look happy, making me warm up. Clenched his hands and walked into the door.
