She needed in approval at this.
Hydra Kingdom may be a kingdom but it wasn't so rich.
If to be compared, Nembus Kingdom, Felix's home, was richer by a few millions of gold.
May be because their resources are much more abundant than Hydra Kingdom that was sharing a land with four other kingdoms.
After waiting for about half an hour, she was finally granted an audience with the king.
Upon entering the audience hall, the king wasn't alone but the princess and prince of the kingdom were also present.
'Hmmm, their looks aren't friendly at all.'
She was referring to the prince and princess.
Both have green hair and golden eyes and besing on their looks she can tell that they are of the same age as her.
They are also twins.
'What do you think are they thinking?' Light asked her in return.
'I am not a mind reader, I can simply feel that they aren't friendly,' she answered.
But she must say, having someone to talk to in these kinds of situation isn't bad at all.
Vermilion Bird rarely answers her and she would end up having a monologue on her own.
"Have you come to as the messenger of the emperor of Qillian Empire regarding my proposal?" the king asked Saphira.
She was stunned, she came here to read books, what kind of proposal would that be?
She simply looked at the king while he continued not noticing the changes in her.
"You see my daughter here, she was known as the most beautiful lady of the kingdom, no even by the other four kingdoms in this land."
"Oh," Saphira reacted weakly making the princess frown.
It seems that Saphira should have complimented her instead of simply reacting in such a way.
At this moment, Saphira was actually wearing a scarf because the weather had turned cold.
That is why one third of her face was being hidden.
'Hey, if I compare myself to her, aren't I more beautiful?' she couldn't help but ask.
'...'
'...'
There was no response from the two being inside her.
Indeed the princess was beautiful, a beauty that could take down a few nations.
Her body was well proportioned as well.
Has fair white skin and cherry colored lips.
Her doe eyes could cause most men to have a feeling of doting towards her.
On the other hand, Saphira had a sharp looking eyes, well defined nose and lips.
Her skin color remained fair despite their battles under the scorching sun.
And if she were to say so herself, her body is a bit more voluptuous than that of this princess.
She couldn't help but to look down on herself.
"Not just her face adn body but even as a person, mydaughter is among the most perfect out there," the king continued praising his daughter.
Her lose shirt was covering most of her assets, she wasn't using their uniform, if she were to use that then they would surely not speak about the body at all.
Though Saphira frowned at the way the king spoke.
'Is he selling his daughter? Why must he speak of her body and face in front of me?'
'...'
'...'
Saphira continued listening at the speech of the king about his daughter.
She could also see that the princess was loking smugly at her.
'Should I just get change? It is quite not fun being looked at smugly by this person. What was the proposal anyway? He haven't spoken about it yet and it has been more than fifteen minutes since he started.'
'Why don't you just interrupt him then?' Light finally gave a comment.
'...'
Vermilion Bird remained sleeping not bothering with what she was talking about.
'Wouldn't that be bad? You know, a king of another kingdom,' Saphira replied.
'You tortured an emperor of another empire,' Light reminded her.
'That and this are two different things.'
'But they are both rulers.'
'That-s why I'm-'
"Why are you keeping quiet?"
Saphira snapped out of her conversation with Light when she heard the irritated voice of the princess.
"Uhmmm princess... uhmmm... that is princess..."
Who was this person?
What was the name of this princess?
Irritation filled the princess' face upon seeing that what Saphira was having difficulty with was actually about her name.
She was known all through out the land, even to other kingdoms.
But this knight actually didn't know her?!?
The nerve of this person.
Looking at her irritated look, Saphira was even more bewildered.
"She is princess Anastasia Dwight, the first princess of Hydra Kingdom."
It was the prince who spoke the name.
"Then could you be prince Anastacius?" Saphira asked gaining her three dark looks.
She raised both of her hands, "I apologize, they were twins so I thought their names would be quite similar as well."
"What kind of knight are you? You have the platinum badge, then you must be one of the seven leading knights in the war against darkness. Why don't you know the names of the royal families?" the king asked in irritation.
Saphira's lips twitched at this, "I apologize, your majesty... uhmmm king...?"
She deliberately asked for his name.
They may be travelling all over the world but why woul dothers expect them to actually know each of their names?
They didn't even know who she was so why must she know who they were?
"My father is known as King Cedric Dwight and I am known as prince Justin Dwight, please remember it from now on knight."
It was once again the prince.
Saphira looked at him.
'Hmmm trying his best not to snap. I must say his noble identity isn't just for a show. As compared to his sister and father.'
Saphira smiled, "Then I shall do my best to remember your names. Can I ask a question your majesty?"
"What is it?" Cedric asked.
"You are aware that I am a platinum knight due to my badge, I am wondering why you also think that I am the messenger sent by my emperor regarding your proposal."
