Leona regained his senses when she heard a scream from outside, which informed his that the group had arrived at the palace.
"We've arrived at the Palace!" shouted someone loudly who could tell if they were the male soldiers in front of him. luckily, the red-brown haired man was asleep, so Leona didn't have to bother with him while awake.
The girl hastily tried to slip out of the horse carriage. She had to creep so slowly and go back into the forest looking for Omelas. unfortunately, the exit was locked. Leona had to rack her brain to open it.
"Damn it! Why does everything have to be locked?" she grumbled.
Leona propped her chin for a moment while looking for ideas before the man got up. And, what is this? Instead, she saw the key sticking out of his pocket.
Opportunity! she screamed excitedly. She immediately got up and walked over to the chair opposite where the man was sleeping. Feeling that there was not an inch of movement due to sleeping soundly, Leona tried to get closer to the man and took the key. Unfortunately when her hand was successful, her body had to end up trapped in the man's confines.
"Are you trying to run away from me?" Lucas asked as he opened his eyes.
Apparently he just pretended to close his eyes to watch and wait for what the girl would do when she woke up.
Leona could only stay frozen in place. It's not that he can't answer, it's just that this position doesn't benefit him at all. Leona really can't move, let alone the distance between each other's faces is so close.
"Em, that's... there's a crow!" she said quickly. Lucas' head snapped back. And immediately used Leona to escape.
First she kicked Lucas in the stomach and then pushed him down until he fell to the ground kissing the bottom of the train.
"Stupid! You have a big body but no brain," she sneered and quickly left the carriage.
Lucas who was still slumped down immediately wiped his nose which was bleeding. this is the first time someone has dared to make him fall kissing the base of the train until he has a nosebleed.
"I'll get him back and give him a reply," Lucas muttered under his breath as he stared at the tightly closed carriage door.

Leona hurriedly left the horse carriage and looked for a place to hide. She couldn't understand why at the bottom of the abyss there were jungles and palaces? Then the little bird also suddenly disappeared. Whoa, messed up.
"Actually the principal is working on me or what my life is at stake again," she complained as she sat himself behind the palace bushes somewhere. What is clear is that the soldier and the red brick head couldn't find him.
Honestly, Leona was annoyed. She felt completely bullied.
"What land of peace?I'm a fugitive now!" she was annoyed again.
She took a deep breath to calm himself. Her mind must be in a positive mode and remain calm, otherwise he cannot find a way out.
'Yes, maybe the principal has a reason for this,' she thought.
Leona was about to get up and leave the palace, but a scream near her hiding place made her give up.
From a distance, exactly 2 meters from where she was squatting, a girl dressed in noble clothes was being humiliated. the girl she knew was dressed in pale light green could only sit down in her place. Crying sobbing without being able to do anything against the other three girls.
Leona could understand right away if they were having a tea party or a small party. But, hey! where is the friend who bullies her own friend?
"This is not true!" Her hands clenched so tightly that her fingernails turned white.
Leona really doesn't like it when someone gets bullied just because they give in. Silence, doesn't mean you lose, right?
Without further ado, she walked over to the girls. Then pushed the purple hair, the perpetrator of the watering earlier. Making the two purple friends stare in disbelief when they saw Leona's sudden appearance.
"You!" they shouted in unison like chorus children. "How dare the Princess!" she continued, Leona squeaked.
"Then what do I care?" she said indifferently. The three of them are getting hotter.
"Who are you? How dare you push the future Crown Princess so rudely!" They emphasized the Crown Princess' words which made Leona squeal once again.
"Excuse me ladies, didn't she just become a candidateIsn't it the Crown Princess who must be respected at this time?" Leona replied, not wanting to lose emphasizing the word candidate.
The three of them stared angrily. "How presumptuous! You deserve to be punished-"
"Stop it!" cut the purple hair.
"But Princess Anastasia?" between her two friends limp.
The girl named Anastasia looked at Leona sharply. "This time you survived because my dress was dirty, but next time we meet again, I'll make sure you prostrate yourself and kiss the toes of my shoes."
Chuckling softly, Leona looked back at him no less sharply. makes Anastasia abandon herself with her feet stomping the ground in annoyance. "I hope so, princess, but I assure you it never happens."
"Are you okay?" Leona asked a moment later to the girl in the light green dress.
She was still sitting quietly in her place, but this time her eyes never left the sight of Leona who looked foreign.
"Hey!" asked Leona again, the girl gasped. She immediately wiped her wet hair with a handkerchief while saying thank you very slowly.
"Why is your voice so low? I can't hear it, you know, ah one more thing if someone asks you to talk, please look at their eyes," said Leona, the girl nodded. "Um, for what I said a thousand thanks earlier."
Leona's brows furrowed. "Relax, they do need to be taught a lesson every now and then."
The girl smiled happily. She quickly grabbed Leona's right hand and held it tightly in front of his chest.
"Who are you and where are you from, rescue girl?" she asked brightly, Leona couldn't help but grin like an idiot.
"Oh, that..."
Did she, she had to tell him about the bird he could talk to and fell into the ravine behind the school?

"My respects to the Sun Nort Vale, Your Highness Felix!" Lucas shouted as he just entered the palace hall.
The man bowed obediently with a sword placed in front of his chest to salute. Even though they are 2 years apart in age, it doesn't make Lucas big head. He really respects prince Felix who is younger. Moreover, Prince Felix is the only potential heir to the throne.
Felix only stared for a moment before turning his gaze back to the pile of files on the desk to his right. The man was really tired of sitting all day listening to residents complain about tax issues which have been increasing rapidly in recent years. To the extent that he didn't have time to practice swordsmanship right now.
"What's the matter General? How did you stop by?" Felix asked flatly. perhaps he was the only man in North Vale who was expressionless.
"Forgive the Beginning, I did not mean to interfere with your work but at this time I have important information that I must convey immediately."
"Question?"
Lucas took a deep breath before saying, "Spy from the Frozen Sea."
Felix's eyes darkened, the man immediately got up from his throne and approached Lucas.
"Are you serious?" he asked, Lucas nodding firmly.
"Yes, I can guarantee it," Lucas replied.
"Where is she now?" Felix asked quickly. The man had even picked up his sword and prepared to leave.
"My majesty, now she is in the palace but his whereabouts have not been found," Lucas said fearfully, Felix immediately stared at himself blankly.
"In any case, drag that person alive in front of me!"
