As I was heading back to the dormitory, I decided to find Mr. Revis and talk to him. I need to make sure that he doesn't create a ruckus.
-
I directly went up to the 8th floor then headed to his room, and knock on his door.
"who is it?" Someone on the other side of the door asked.
"It's Princess Ebieria, and I would like to have a serious discussion with you, Mr. Revis."
The door suddenly flew open and there stood Ryezon with a nervous and pale face.
"y-your highness, is there something you wanted to discuss? is it related to me and Rovina's fight?"
"No, but it's something more serious, may I come in?"
"ah, of course, your highness," Ryezon then opened his door wide.
I then sat on a chair.
"I'll go straight to the point, were you tailing my-, me around 10 minutes after your conference with Salvage?" I asked with a serious expression
Ryezon remained quiet and avoided my eye contact
"Okay, let me rephrase that, where were you tailing Rovina once the conference ended?."
He continued to remain quiet.
"Your silence means you saw something, I won't ask you more further, but I wanted to warn you that if what you saw or hear, comes out to the public, My kingdom, no, the kingdom where your bloodline came from will be swarmed with tons of questions and it'll create a ruckus. So make sure to choose the right decision." and with that, I directly stood up, and went out of the room heading to my room on the 9th floor.
-
"Cousin! what took you so long?"
"I decided to discuss with Ryezon immediately," I answered then sat on the sofa
Rovina nodded then sat back on the single couch
"How did your discussion with headmistress go though?"
"Did she scold you? are our points going to be deducted?" She continued while looking nervous
"Don't worry, it went fine.." I said, unsure of my answer
"Cousin?"
"Okay, I might've lied to her, I didn't really tell her the truth about the book," I told her looking a bit stressed
"What did you said instead?"
"I told her that I found the book outside the gate hidden near the bushes while heading here." I sighed then continued to explain
"What's more troubling is that Ryezon saw what really happened hours earlier, which means if there's a witness then I'll be doomed, you know it'll be difficult if I told the headmistress about the truth..."
"You decided not to tell the truth instead."
"not to tell the truth, yet."
"So that's why you directly went to have a talk with Ruby-head?"
"what did you told him though?" Rovina continued looking curious
"I just told him what he needs to hear, I just hope he chooses the right decision."
Rovina just nodded in response then stood up
"Cousin, I'll be heading back to my room,"
"Okay, and Rovina, don't make anymore troubles okay?"
"of course, you to Cousin," Then she directly went out of my room
I headed to my closet and change into a more comfortable and shorter dress, then lay down on my bed.
'by tomorrow, there will 4 more days before the royal duel, it might be impossible for me to break both kingdoms curse, but this is the least I can do for my kingdom to stay away from disappearance, *sigh* I wonder if I can carry out Great grandma Avria's will. I don't see any signs of the dark king appearing or coming here in Enchantia, which is what I felt relieved about, I do want to kill him so badly, but it'll be impossible without him showing and without Austin cooperating with me.
-The next day-
I woke up earlier even though I don't have classes on the morning. I directly wore my training outfit and headed down on the 2nd floor and in the 3rd training room, which is for those who are in the royal bloodline.
I went in and locked the door, placing a barricade spell on it so that no one will come in because today I will be enhancing my 7th hidden power. Since the room has no windows, it wouldn't be a problem.
'división de elementos'
My four elements directly went out of my body
'viento dividido'
My wind element then separate with my body, which caused my hair and eyes to change, then I faced my elements.
"I want the five of you to spar with me without using your powers." I told them
"Aqua and Tierra will spar with me first, Fuega and Truena second and Vienta will be the last." I continued
The five of them nodded and the two directly went on position.
-
three hours had already passed after the training.
"The five of you did great." I said then smiled at them
They smiled back before fusing within me again.
I directly took down the barricade spell and opened the door, then headed back upstairs, but before I went back to the lifter, someone called my name from behind
"Your highness!"
I stop in my tracks and looked back, it was Ryezon
"do you need anything?"
"There is something I must confess." He said while looking guilty
To be honest, I already expected him to find me but not this early.
"Okay, let's go talk somewhere less crowded," I suggested
he just nodded in reply then followed me.
-
We decided to talk in the library since most of the students are in their classes.
"Okay, start talking,"
"I indeed followed Rovina after the conference, and didn't mean to overhear your discussion nor about your...powers..." He confessed
"I promised I didn't told anyone about this though! after all I had already caused to much problem on the first day of my arrival here," He continued
I looked at him and saw the sincerity in his eyes, his not lying.
"I'm glad you told me the truth, but please what you saw or hear must stay a secret."
He nodded eagerly
"of course your majesty."
"and, try not to trigger Rovina's temper, she doesn't like it when creatures act rashly or rude at the front or behind of her family, and even to her,"
He nodded looking embarrassed,
"I tried to apologize to her since two hours ago but she continuously avoided me, so I decided that I should wait until she probably calms down, then I can apologize to her properly,"
I nodded in agreement then told him that he should be preparing for his class, he nodded then walked away.
Since the 8th floor is for the male students in the same level as me, his age might be the same as mine, months older or younger, but I'd be honest his not that bad and he reminds me of my brother who is a year younger than me.
