The Rise Of The Queen Ernest

Feelings of Missing Alena

A red rose was on the table. The flower is a gift from Prince Lucius. Alena who did not understand immediately released the flower from her ear. Amy and Agnes seem to tease the princess who just got the flower from the prince. Alena who did not understand the jokes of her two servants just shook her head.

It can be informed because all this time he had never been involved with romance because it was too busy with his job to catch criminals. He doesn't even know what love is and what it's like to be in love.

"It seems like the prince likes you. Princess," said Amy.

"Yes, Princess. It seems like Prince Lucius is interested in you."

"Don't talk too much. For a useless princess and a witch like me, which prince would like me?!"

"But that's just an issue, Princess. I guess after seeing your actions that night, the prince changed his attitude towards you and didn't think of you as a loser like the others!" said Amy.

"So, is this good or not?" alena asked as she approached her two servants.

"Of course it's very good, Princess. During this time the princess is considered a witch and a loser and if Prince Lucius falls in love with the Princess then no one will dare to consider the princess so again" said Agnes.

"You're imagining too much, Agnes. He's a prince who can't possibly fall for an ordinary princess like me. Who am I? Arabella is better than me so why would she choose me even another royal princess much better than me so don't fantasize!"

"Why does the princess say that? Think optimistically princess if Prince is interested in princess" said Amy.

"Already, don't discuss anything that isn't important. Why are you talking like that anyway? Don't say anything unimportant let alone a matter like this. Remember, walls have ears. If anyone hears and then you two get out, you know what's going to happen, right? From one person will spread to another and then all the spices will increase so that what you say will be words if I want to have Prince Lucius even though I already know if my brother likes him princes. You must know, I will be hated by many people because they will defend princess Arabella and I will be considered a traitor!"

"Sorry, Princess. Because the Prince gave this flower to the Princess so we think the prince put his heart on the Princess" Amy said.

"All right, just a flower. What does that mean?"

"Red roses symbolize love and affection, do princesses not know?" ask Agnes.

"Wow... Wow, symbolize what? Of love? The affection? I think you're overreacting!"

"The princess is completely insensitive!"

"All right, let's talk about something else. Is there any news you got?"

"We heard that the king wants to do a hunting event on the fifteenth day" Amy replied.

"Hunting?" Alena scrunched her forehead. Hunting on the fifteenth? Isn't that the day on which the perverse ritual will take place? Is there a specific purpose to the king's plan?

"Ernest, are you inside?" the voice of the queen mother.

Amy rushes, opening the door for the queen mother. Alena welcomes her mother and salutes her mother.

"What brought you here?" ask Alena.

"There's something you're trying to tell you, Ernest."

"Ernest will listen, Mother."

"Come here" the queen mother took her daughter's hand and led her to the bed. They sat together there, the queen mother seemed happy to see the state of her daughter who looked better and better. All must be thanks to the medicine he gave.

"All thanks to the medicine you gave me, thank you," replied Ernest even though he had not taken any medicine from the queen at all.

"Mother is happy to hear it, so listen. Father planned to make an event to welcome the arrival of prince Lucius so that our kingdom and Kenneth's kingdom have a better relationship."

"I've heard it, Mother. But why the fifteen?" ask Alena.

"Your father has thought about this carefully, on the fifteenth day a false ritual will definitely be performed. We don't know who, don't know where and we don't know what ritual it is but as we know, you've always been the suspect for that reason, on the fifteenth, we'll all go hunting, including you. You'll be with us all night so if the ritual happens, no one will dare to accuse you of being the witch because you're always with us. Your father and I have been thinking about this, so perhaps the rumor that you are a witch will diminish" explained the queen mother.

"So you want to clear my name through the hunting?"

"That's right, honey. Before you and Arabella go to Kenneth's palace, we'll try to clear your name first."

"What does Mother mean?" alena did not understand.

"Prince Lucius, he invited you two to a dance to be held in his palace."

"What's? Why would he invite me too?"

"Why do you look unhappy?" ask mother.

"Mother, the situation is not good. People hate me so it's not a wise choice to go to Kenneth's royal dance. I was worried that my bad image would damage the reputation of the kingdom so I guess, I don't have to go there!"

"No need to worry, Ernest. It's a masquerade party, no one will recognize you. After all we have thought about this which is why we want to clear your name so that no one else speaks ill of you!"

"But, Mother?" Alena lowered her head, not the right and wise choice to go to a party. Do not let the incident experienced by Ernest at that time repeat itself.

"Don't worry, no one will dare to talk about your daughter again in the future. After all Father will send some reliable soldiers to find the perpetrators who perform the ritual!" said the queen mother.

"Alright, Mother. Ernest will obey the decree of Mother and Father," inevitably he must follow what the king has decided. After all if she stayed in the Palace, people would accuse her more of being a witch.

"Mother was so happy to hear it, Ernest," the queen mother shifted her seat so she could hug her daughter.

"Now you don't have to worry because Mother and Father won't stay still and let yourself face difficulties alone" his mother said, wiping her daughter's back.

"Thank you, Mother," for the first time after she came to that ancient age, she got such a warm embrace.

Suddenly, she missed both her parents. What are they doing right now? Did they know he was dead from the explosion? Alena held back, holding back feelings of longing for her parents who were in modern times. Can he go back to that time and be himself again? But it felt impossible to remember his body that was already smashed into pieces.

Alena thought about it incessantly, until the queen mother left. Amy and Agnes were even surprised to see the princess sitting pensively in front of the window.

"Daughter, what's wrong with you?" ask Agnes.

"Have you found a safe place to practice?" ask Alena.

"Had princess. The cave back then, it was just a safe place!" answer Amy.

"Okay, tonight we go practice!" alena's orders. The fifteenth date was only a few days away so he had to immediately train his two servants in order to protect himself because he had a bad premonition while hunting later.
