The Last Princess of the Kingdom of Verdant

BRAKKS
“ANNE! Hah .. hah ...” Hera shouted to Anne as she entered the room. He looked breathless after running.
“Hera! Where have you been?” Rein was already preparing to scold Hera.
“You okay Anne? What the hell's going on? When I came back you were no more. We went around looking for you everywhere.”
“Hhhh .., it looks like you're looking for it in the wrong forest.” Rein snorted mocking Hera.
“Huhuhu, I'm sorry Anne ..” Hera started crying looking at all the wounds on Anne's body.
“There's ap-Anne! You why?” Chris was surprised to see Anne's messy and scarred state. He heard a commotion from his room, and decided to come.
“I'm fine sister, I just fell in the park.” Anne doesn't want to worry Chris, it's better not to prolong the problem.
“Excuse me, I'll check miss.” The palace doctor finally came and treated Anne's injuries.
“Please do not leave a mark.” Rein confirmed to the doctor.
They continued to accompany and pay attention while the doctor treated Anne. Hera was still sobbing while accompanying Anne. Thankfully, there were no serious injuries. After the doctors finished treating all her wounds, Anne realized that Rein was still holding her hand. How about this, I dare not take it off!
“I'm done. Better miss rest soon now.” The doctor tidied up his things, saluted him, and went out.
“Anne are you going to be okay by yourself tonight?” Rein was worried about leaving Anne alone, especially after seeing her whole body tremble in fear.
“I've been better brother, thank you. You all should also get back to rest.”
“Anneeee .. forgive me, I didn't mean to leave you ...” Hera still felt guilty for Anne.
“It's okay Hera, I just fell.” He did not dare to tell the truth to all of them, except Rein, who had seen for himself the situation.
“I'll put extra guards and maids outside this room, if you need anything just say, okay?” Rein stood up and let go of his grasp.
“My room is also near here, so take it easy Anne.” Chris tries to calm Anne down so she can sleep well and not have nightmares.
“You guys, be more careful when helping Anne.” Rein reminded the servants again before finally leaving with Hera.
“Alright, I won't bother you anymore, good night Anne.” Chris stroked Anne's head and returned to her room.
The servants immediately helped Anne bathe and covered her wound with bandages. After that Anne was too tired to fall asleep.

“Wah, people will talk about the security of Terra's palace seeing it full of wounds like that.” Arthur is shocked to see Anne entering the dining room full of bandages.
“Hera, are you a Wart spy? Haha,” Parlo laughingly accuses Hera.
“I accidentally, huhu …. Brother Parlo evil!” Hera hits Parlo and runs towards her mother who just entered the room.
“Ah, haha ...” Anne's face flushed red, ashamed to imagine her full of bandages. It seems the servants are overdoing it.
“Anne, are you okay, baby? I heard about yesterday's incident. Your injuries look so much, I will send one of the palace doctors to stay at the Vininn residence until you recover.” The Empress came to Anne and observed her wounds.
“Anne ..., must have hurt so much …. I-this is for you Anne. I'm sorry ...” Hera gives one more doll to Anne.
“It's okay Hera, you don't need to give me a gift.”
“Thank you Anne, you don't have to hesitate. You want to be a friend of Hera?” The Empress took the doll and gave it to Anne. Unlike the dolls that were yesterday, the dolls were huge. Although he could not see clearly, he could see red, and very soft.
“Thank you Hera, I will take good care of her.” Anne hugged the doll and asked the waiter to take her to her room.
“Hera, have you apologized to Anne?” The Emperor came and approached Anne and Hera.
“Have ...” Hera looked a little scared of her father. It looks like he will be punished this time.
“Good, don't repeat your mistake. Anne, if Hera does it again, just piss her off, okay?”
“Dad!” her face flushed red and she hit her father slowly.
“Ah, Kayak has gone first, because it has to go to the border.” Rein answered briefly.
“Hmm, alright.” The emperor answered while eating his breakfast. They started eating breakfast quietly.
During the breakfast Anne kept a close eye on each member of the emperor's family, she could not get them wrong again. It was very difficult to discern the characteristics of the emperor family since they all had almost the same hair color.
Empress, Arthur, and Hera had brown hair, while the emperors, Luna, Parlo, and Rein were black. I better remember it from their voices.

“Anne, will you play with me before you return to your home?” Hera still wanted to play with Anne, rarely would a child of her age play in the palace. His older sister Luna also never wanted to accompany him to play.
“Iya of course Hera.”
“But this time I will accompany you.” Parlo took the initiative to keep them, so that things do not happen that are not desirable.
“Parlo, do not reason to be able to skip your training.” The queen commemorates her son.
“Let me pay attention to them, I have no classes or training this morning. Brother train hard.” Rein smiled at Parlo.
“Thank you Rein, please take care of them yes.”
Parlo could no longer refute and skipped his training. I really don't like physical exercise. Parlo ate his breakfast gloomily.
“Kak Luna, come with us play.”
“No Hera, I don't like playing with kids.” Luna immediately went out of the dining room.
“Ah, haha after all Luna is not cool to be invited to play. Come on Anne, let's play in the dugout.”
Hera took Anne in her arms and walked over in excitement.
“Pelan-pelan Hera's. Anne can't walk as fast as you.” Rein clasped Hera's other hand, to hold her back.
--
“Anne, may I visit your home? I'll also send you many letters!”
“Of course, Hera was my first friend in Terra!”
Chris and Rein also chatted while watching them.
“Good Anne has started to look cheerful again. These days have been hard for Anne. May his family be well.”
“We have confirmed that the duke has indeed been caught, but the rest of the family members are still not known for certain.”
“Anne says that she and her brother Fricsia set off simultaneously towards Terra, but split up halfway. I'm afraid something happened on the way, because he hasn't been up until now.”
“We can not send search team in bulk, Wart troops will realize it soon. They would not hesitate to directly kill the Terra knights who entered the Verdant.” region
“Did any other Verdant nobles manage to escape to Terra?”
“Hmm, there may be about five. There was one noble who even brought his entire family army, though not many, around 200 people. It was a lot to talk about.”
“Good, they will definitely help retake Verd-”
Suddenly Hera came to them and pulled Rein's clothes.
“Anne, Brother Rein is also studying magic! Come on, show me!”
“Yeah, I told you not to force me to play with you guys.”
“Hm? No tuh. Come on, brother, show me! Make animals!” Hera pulled Rein's shirt back. Their ages were not much different, how could they be so different.
