Chapter LI: to the capital
(Alice's POV)
I've spent the night in the palace where I saw Xynia who seemed to be the owner of this gloomy place.
Her servants were fewer than mine and this place is totally dead. How can they let a Future Queen spend her life in this area?
"Would you like to have tea? I will ask my servants to do-"
I waved my hand and fakely smiled at her. I wouldn't let her bother herself on small things like this.
"You don't have to do that. Anyway, are you some sort of royalty? I'm certain I saw you at the party last time."
She smiled purely, "Yes. That is correct. But you don't have to acknowledge me as one. You are the first person who visited my palace since now and then."
She looks delighted, Although I didn't really think of coming here. It was an accident that I was here after all.
