"Sorry I think I heard it wrong, can you please repeat?"
Bunny Cecile chose [deception]
"Become my aid. I have a free spot anyway"
Prince Albert chose [straight jab]
[straight jab] broke Bunny's [deception]. Player Bunny Cecile suffered a critical hit. -199 HP.
"Crown Prince is surely jesting. Why would you ask your former fiancée, who you just recently dumped and harmed her family, her aid?"
Bunny Cecile chose [Counter]. Prince Albert suffered a critical hit. -199 HP. [Counter] made Prince Albert dizzy. His turn pass.
"Plus, this ex-fiancée now has her own business to take care of, but still took a little time to help the Royal Family stop a vicious plot aiming to your life. It would be a joke to ask anything more from her after cheating, hurting and burdening her for so long, don't you think so, MY. DEAR. CROWN. PRINCE?"
Bunny Cecile chose [All-out pummeling]. Prince Albert suffered a critical hit. -1999 HP. Prince Albert was K.O.
Bunny Cecile won this battle.
"Can you just consider the idea?"
"Considered. Denied. But I thank Your Highness for the opportunity given"
We were almost in the Queen's quarters when my royal savior came.
"Cecile, Oniisama. Are you also visiting Mother? What a coincidence, may I join you?"
Stupid Prince looked at us with a suspicious gaze.
"Hoo... to think that would be such a coincidence that we ALL need to talk with Mother today, right my dear brother?"
"Haha, is a wonderful coincidence indeed brother. Mother should be really happy that we came together just like old times"
Like old times... indeed. When I was 6-7 years old and just appointed as Crown Prince's fiancée, the older generation forced me and the princes to interact more. We would come to Her Majesty room, where we would eat many pastries and run around. Unlike when we were older, Albert was more friendly with me and William was always glued in me. Thinking now, it was a really fun period.
"What are you smiling at Ceci?"
"I was just thinking how was cute when you got all teary when I had to go home and refused to let go of my hand"
"I-I don't remember that. I'm sure you are remembering it wrong"
"Hee... to think you were a crybaby even in front of Cecile Bill"
"I-I did not. I just escorted her because brother would always abandon us halfway"
Haha, Will is so cute. His cheeks are so red that they are calling me to bite them... I must not let myself lose to temptation.
STAY STRONG CECILE.
"Yes, yes. It's Albert's fault to be such a dull person since young. By no means you were a crybaby"
"Of course I would go away, Bill would always glare at anyone who came close to Cecile. He was like a protective watchdog. I would hate to spoil the precious time that my little brother got with his puppy love"
"You! It was not like this! I was just trying to protect Ceci from those hateful noble brats"
*pfft*
"You guys are having fun on my expense. I won't care for you anymore, just wait until we get to Mother"
"Haha, are you going to tell on us Bill? How very mature of you. In this way you will never get a girl"
Will is just too cute. He is even a bit teary.
"Albert we should stop, Will is about to cry. And you shouldn't worry much about your future wife. If everything goes south, this Onesan will marry you Okay?"
"Will you really?"
"That you need Cecile to step up so that you won't be left out, it's too pitiful my brother. I will morn for your poor soul"
"You seem to be having fun"
A soft voice took us out from a rare moment of harmony. Just like that, we remembered that we were not so close as we used to be. Before we could be in a awkward situation, Prince Albert addressed to the voice that took us out from our 'reverie'.
"Julia! What are you doing here?"
"I came to Her Majesty to ask advice. Why? Shouldn't I be here?"
I know she is not purposeful, but I hate when she talks like she is a victim. Holding my urge to roll my eyes, I answered her.
"I'm sure is not what Prince Albert meant Miss Julia. We are also going to meet Her Majesty, why don't you come with us?"
"Yes, Cecile is right. Let's us go together Juli. Of course I'm glad you are here"
Prince Albert hugged Miss Julia and went his way to Her Majesty's room, completely ignoring us.
Looking at me with a dumbfounded face, Will spoke with a defeated voice.
"We should follow them"
"Right"
In silence, it didn't take long for us to arrive at our destiny.
"To think that I would have all of you coming today. But I can't lie that I'm intrigued to why we are having this rare reunion"
"For me is of course to have one of my most important clients to approve my new products. You can seat down and I will make the new tea for you"
"Wonderful, I'm sure that will be superb as always"
"I will help you"
"There is no need Miss Julia, you can relax together with Her Majesty and the Princes. It won't take long"
"Come Julia, Cecile products are different so only she knows how to prepare them right, just let her do it. We should sit down"
"Yes, yes. You can go and relax. I will be there soon~"
