The sun was setting down and made the whole Trading-Hills Capital filled with colorful lights in every district. The hustles and bustles of every corner never dissipated.
"Come! Come! We got fresh chicken meat! Fresh chicken meat! Fresh pork! Fresh Beef! Here at Meat Shop! Preservation ends at three months! Price starts at 50 Brons, only at 50 Brons and you can feed your whole family for a day or two! Come! Come!"
"Have yourself a light leather armor with just 7 Crens! Want a set of leather armor from head to toe?! We have it for only half a Seln! Different sizes, different designs, we have it all! Protect yourself from beast and monsters! Cherish your life by having yourself an armor!"
"Look, mommy! A spellbook of Stage One Fire Throw! Don't I have a Fire adept?! I want one!"
"But dear, you're not even a Rank Eeh. Once you've reached that rank, go find a job and get it yourself. Do you think I have a single Seln with me? Hmm?"
...
Even though the Trading-Hills Capital is mainly for trades, there are numerous residents on it. there is about three neighborhood that surrounded the Royal Mansion which was like a little castle for the princes and princesses from the three kingdoms.
These residents are some workers for the nobles to have a place in the capital. The men will bring their family there and live in exchange for work. That is why there are commoners there.
Having more energy than a normal human, like Avion, these people are still busy even when the night comes to the capital. All businesses will only stop when midnight approaches and opens the ones for the dark.
At that moment, exquisite carriages with coachmen wearing formal attire were could be found traveling on any roads. Every noble with their children are about to attend the welcome party of their new ruler, Princess Alisera.
The noble children who were always arrogant in front of the commoners couldn't help but feel their chest tight. This event could be said to be the future of their family.
Even if it is the unlikable prince, Prince Julio, the girls will risk everything just to impress him. However, if possible, they would prioritize spending time with Prince Harold.
The boys, on the other hand, were excited to see the princess since they had yet to see her. None of the rumors had reached their ears yet since they were busy preparing for the welcome party.
"Memi, you have to be super aggressive and take all the time to flirt with Prince Harold. Based on the data we have, Prince Harold's type is someone like Princess Alisera, who was once boyish and a little bit rough in her childhood. hehe."
In one of the caravans, with black color and white designs, a countess was advising her daughter who was called, Memi. She had a straight short hair which had a great luster. Her hair was lively, just one slight turn of her head and her hair will joyously follow. On top of her head was a headband which was like a crown, however, it could be argued for it to have a different design so that there are no complications later on.
Memi had a dress that was minimalistic but wild in nature. It was blue and white, soothing to the eyes while still able to allure anyone looking. She had a slender body and her face white with long eyelashes and clear black eyes.
Memi was confident in her looks and charisma that she was aiming at Prince Harold on the spot. She knew that she will still lose to the princess's looks, but, 'That doesn't matter' Memi deviously smiled, 'She isn't an opponent.'
Since the prince and princess of each kingdom couldn't be married off to each other, her only opponent was the other noble children. But she knew, if only looks were the deciding factor, she had already won. If it's talent, then she was still confident in her archery and literacy skills. In short, it could be said that she can be the future queen of Rianzares Kingdom already!

Tak* Tak*
"Sir Avion, the princess wants you to..." Mera, the middle sister of the three sisters, the princess's personal servants opened the door to see Avion and Edora there. She suddenly stopped when she saw what was in the room, in the dark room.
Edora, who had her head and knees on the floor rolled her eyes. Both of her cheeks were swollen red while tears were coming out of it.
Meanwhile, Avion had his arms crossed on his chest while staring at Edora on the floor. He didn't look at the servant that opened the door but waited for Edora to apologized.
Immediately, Mera stepped back and closed the door.
It has been an hour since they entered the room and the dusk had already settled in. They have yet to activate the lighting stones above them.
"I-I'm..." knowing that she was already seen and exposed to a lowly servant, Edora gritted her teeth and thought, 'I am already kneeling in front of him! Why is it so hard for the sorry to come out?!''
But seeing the eyes of Mera who looked at her with confusion, she forced herself to finally say;
"I'm sorry..."
With squinted eyes, Avion nodded once and said with a domineering tone, "You can now go."
Edora's energy was already restored after what happened so she easily stood up, nodded to Avion, and left the room while wiping off her tears. When she exited, the door opened for the light outside to come in. This piques Avion's interest.
Mera looked at Edora when she walked out with a curious face but when Edora glared at her, she quickly evaded her eyes.
This continued for a while. Edora was trying to threaten her but with her current face, it was ineffective, so before leaving with her broken pride and swollen cheeks, "You didn't see anything." she left behind these words.
Mera fell into a daze when Avion opened the door and was fascinated by the lights on the ceiling. Coincidentally, the two were looking at the same spot, and when they noticed each other, their faces were only a few inches apart, making Mera blushed.
'Another girl again?' Avion smiled, feeling refreshed after "satisfying" himself with Edora.
