The Fate Of The Princess

Incognito Mission

After a long journey, they arrived at a dark forest with a gripping atmosphere. But that doesn't scare them.

"Stop a minute."

"What's up, Elena?"

Elena sharpened her eyesight, "There's a pretty strong barrier. If we go in haphazardly, they can find us."

"Lalu—eh, what is...?"

"Because of that, we're going to be plain little girls" said Elena, who had already changed their appearance.

"Here," he continued, handing over the disguise pill to Hotaru.

"After this, what should we do?" asked Hotaru who had swallowed the pill.

"Waiting for the right time. Are you ready?"

"sure."

They were shocked when they heard footsteps.

"They're coming" Elena whispered.

Not long after, a group of vampires appeared with a large number and approached them.

"Hey, kid. You lost?"

"Yes, uncle. Can you get us out of this forest?" ask Elena back.

"of course. Come on, come with us."

They were also taken in by the vampires. Elena grinned as they were led into the barrier. Then, they stopped suddenly.

"Uncle, why are we even getting into the woods? Where's the exit?" elena asked with a scared expression.

"Haha. Of course, in hell!"

They were about to tear apart the little girl's fragile body but Hotaru hugged her and injured her back.

"Yue, are you okay?" ask Hotaru lirih.

"Liu, why...?"

"Sweetie! Quickly kill him!"

"No.." said Elena who hugged Hotaru tightly.

Suddenly, a girl in a striking yellow dress approached them.

"What are you doing here?!" snapped it.

"Sir princess...?" ask them trembling.

"Finally." Elena's inner faint grin.

The girl called Princess approached two little girls who looked frightened.

"Is it okay?" tanyanya gently.

Elena nodded, "But, she was injured for protecting me, sis." replied the one who was still holding Hotaru.

The girl gave her handkerchief, "Wear this to stop the bleeding."

"Thank you, brother..."

"Call me Brother Felisya, sweet sister."

Elena smiled innocently, "My name is Yue, and this is my cousin Liu. Nice to meet you, brother." he replied.

"I'm also happy to meet a cute girl like you. Stay here, I'll take care of them."

Then, Felisya turned towards the vampire and they were all enraged by him. Elena looked at their interaction with a cold face. He kept the handkerchief Felisya gave him and replaced it with the same color as his. Afterwards, he pressed the blood from Hotaru's wound.

Elena took out a healing pill. Hotaru looked at Elena who gave the code through her eyes immediately swallowed it.

"Return to your respective duties. I don't want to see any intruders here" Felisya said.

After the vampire left, he turned to them, "Little sister, you better come to my palace" Felisya said.

Elena put on a surprised expression, "Eh? The palace? I mean...?"

"Hehe, this is my territory. You could say I'm the princess." Felisya replied with a small laugh.

"Let me bring your friend" he suggested.

Elena shook her head, "No need, brother. I can still take him."

"seen right? I live in the woods, so my physique is strong." Elena said after holding Hotaru.

Felisya looked at Elena meaningfully. Then, he grinned faintly, "Well, you're great."

"Show me the way, brother."

"Yes, follow me." replied Felisya who was already walking.

Those behind Princess Felisya looked at her quite sharply.

"Hotaru, how?" ask Elena slowly

"I don't feel sick anymore" whispered Hotaru.

"Sorry for making you hurt" Elena muttered.

Princess Felisya escorts Hotaru and Elena to her palace. They were welcomed by the ladies and the soldiers, or rather welcomed their lady. While their gazes at Elena who was holding Hotaru were like a tiger ready to pounce on her.

Felisya noticed their gazes at the little girl, "Let your eyes down! Don't be so rude to my little guest!" he said in a low voice.

They lowered their heads, "I'm sorry, princess."

"Sir, why do they look at me like I'm food?" asked Elena who was trembling.

Felisya looked at Elena who looked terrified, "Pardon them huh. Sometimes they are always like that. Don't think too much."

"Uhm, yes." Elena replied innocently.

"Hey, you. Hurry up here." call Felisya to a waiter.

"Yes, princess?"

"Take us to an empty room" Felisya said.

"Good, princess. Please come with me."

They were taken by the maid to a room that was too spacious for a little girl like Elena.

"Take your brother to his bed. I'll call a healer" said Felisya.

"Yes, brother," replied Elena.

"And you..." Felisya pointed to the waiter who followed him, "Prepare food for them!"

"Okay, Princess ."

Felisya stroked Elena's head, "We go first, yes" she said gently.

Elena nodded.

After that, they also left. Hotaru who had been pretending to be asleep, immediately woke up and came down from Elena's sling when she heard the sound of the door closing.

"Elena,"

"Shhttt...."

Elena set up a barrier formation so that those outside the room did not hear any sound. When he finished, he stared at the rest of their rooms.

His eyes sharpened as he looked at some pretty suspicious things.

"What's wrong?"

Elena spread her arms, from the bed came a light with some writing that made Hotaru even more confused. Afterwards, he made some elaborate hand symbols. A light appears with different spells on some sides of the room.

"Destroy it!" his Elena.

Hotaru flinched from hearing a loud enough voice and she saw Elena's increasingly cold expression.

"What's going on?" ask Hotaru.

"I destroyed everything in this room" Elena replied.

"You mean?"

"Lay down first."

Hotaru nodded.

Elena took out a golden needle that was already coated by her inner power. Then, he thrust the needle into all of Hotaru's acupoints. After that, he cast a spell and appeared a thin but powerful energy shield around Hotaru's body.

"Yourf..." Elena wiped her sweaty forehead.

"Is this how I feel if the aura here is getting gripping?" ask Hotaru.

"Not wrong. This place is indeed filled with a stinging stench!" his Elena.

"Well, I felt a slight aura of death in this place. Too little until I didn't notice it." Hotaru replied after focusing on the room.

"Whatever they give, just accept it" said Elena.

"For food and drink, this is..." Elena took out a jade bottle containing some pills.

"If they take us out to eat together, you're gonna have to drink this" he continued.

"What about you?" hotaru asked who was looking at Elena anxiously.

"Don't worry, I have my own way. What matters is that you're okay" Elena replied calmly.

"Uh, he's always like that," inner Hotaru.

"Then, what have they done to this room?" hotaru asked after receiving it.

"Too many..." Elena flinched and released the formation.

"What's wrong?" whisky Hotaru.

"They are near. Change your position, I'll apply medicinal leaves."

Some time after Elena finished with her activities, Felisya brought a healer with her. In addition, the waiters who had previously also brought the food troley to their guests. While Hotaru just sat down and looked at them limply as if there was no energy.

"Little sister, you've been waiting for a long time, haven't you?" felisya said in a sweet voice.

"No, sister," Elena turned to the man beside the princess, "Is this the healer that you said?" tanyanya polo's.

Felisya nodded, "Please check on him."

"All right, miss." The doctor checked Hotaru's pulse.

"Hm, this girl's condition has improved. It only took him some time until he completely recovered" said the healer.

Felisya turned to look at Elena, "How did you cure her?" ask her with sharpened eyes.

Elena tilted her head, "We are people who are ostracized by the villagers. We are used to all wounds. Therefore, I always bring some herbs."

"I'm sure the healer already smelled the scent of medicine on his body right?" ask him innocently.

Felisya looked at the healer making her flinch, "A-ah, right, miss," she replied clumsily.

"Sister, don't be like that. You're scaring me," Elena said with a sad face.

Felisya stroked Elena's head, "I'm sorry, Yue."

Elena grinned thinly, "It's okay, brother."

"Don't forget to eat and rest. The cure for Liu is in that trolley" Felisya said.

"Okay, sister." replied Elena. Felisya's eyes glinted at her words.

"We go first." she said. Elena nodded.

Then, they walked out of the bedroom door.

"Miss..."

Felisya smirked, "Everything went well."

"What about your duties?" Felisya turned towards his subordinates.

"I've done it at your command." replied the waiter.

"I've also mixed something in the medicine" replied the physician.

"Good!" Felisia was satisfied with their work.

He stared at the bodyguards in front of the room door, "Don't let them out without my permission."

"All right, miss."

Then, the three of them left to continue the pending affairs. The guards kept the room.

Elena who had already made the barrier right after they left could not hold it in anymore.

"Hahahaha, are they stupid or overconfident?" elena asked with a cynical laugh.

Hotaru smirked wickedly, "I guess both of them. The proof of their conversation was heard all the way here. They think we're ordinary people, don't they?" timpale.

Then, Elena looked at the contents of the troley sharply, "Heh, their plans are mature as well huh. It is only fitting that the previous victim can be fooled."

He threw all the food and medicine on the floor. Then, Elena burned it. After everything shattered unceremoniously, he took out a small jade bottle.

"Oh, what is it?" ask Hotaru.

"You can call it, a trail-busting herb," replied Elena who had already drip the potion.

"Well, that's great. I also want to learn," Hotaru said with sparkling eyes.

"Maybe" said Liu.

"Sister Liu/Miss?!!" shouted those who were surprised by his sudden appearance.

"It's a good thing my heart doesn't come off" Elena flatly chimed.

"Huft, can you show up normally?" ask Hotaru.

"Huh! It's your fault for using my name without permission" Liu replied casually.

"Uhm, I never made a name. So I had to take your name. Sorry," said Hotaru who slightly lowered her head.

Liu stroked Hotaru's head, "I'm just kidding, baby."

"So, Brother Liu isn't angry with us?" ask Elena.

Liu chuckled, "Hehe, where might I be angry with my beloved girls" she said, drawing Hotaru and Elena into her arms.

"Hahh, the affectionate call from the lady made my nausea disappear" Hotaru said

"Moreover I should refrain from sewing my mouth because it says sweetly to the Feli-Feli," said Elena who creeped out after remembering their interaction.

"Looks like you're an expert, huh, Elena?" liu asked half mockingly.

"Huh, don't bully me, sis," Elena replied.

"Uuhh, I should also refrain from slashing their heads," Hotaru said.

Liu gave a small smile looking at their mannerisms, "Then, spirit huh. I will support whatever you do while you don't hurt each other" he said gently.

Elena and Hotaru looked at each other and smiled at Liu's earnest concern and did not distinguish them. That night, they slept well before facing the next challenge.
