In the continuation of the flashback...
Two days passed...
Ms. Elona: The activity we will do outside today will be led by Selena, while Zilpher will be the second in command...
Zilpher: !!!! (Tsskkk!!! How can I forget Selena with this happening??) I should distance myself from her muttering
Then Selena approached him and nudged him...
Selena: Zip!
Zilpher: What Zip?! My name is Zilpher! slightly annoyed
Selena: Zip, you're in charge of lining up our classmates outside.
Zilpher: Hayysss... troubled
And so they began their tasks.
On the grass...
Selena looking for something while next to Zilpher: Zip?
Zilpher: Tsskkk!!! (Are you doing this on purpose? I told you my name is Zilpher!)
Selena: Zip, have you found any worms there?
Zilpher: Tsskkk!!! (But it seems there's still hope for me with Selena!) smiles
They caught many different kinds of insects and butterflies.
And they often grouped together for school activities...
Selena: Zip??
Zilpher: It's Zilpher!!!
Even though he was annoyed and kept repeating that his name was Zilpher and not "Zip," it was fine with him as long as he was with Selena. He decided to start calling Selena "Sel."
One day, he saw on the street...
Zilpher hiding behind a tree (That's Selena's usual companion) But now, he's with another girl... (She's pretty too, especially with her orange hair and blue eyes similar to Selena's but...) How dare you accompany another girl besides Selena! angry
He quickly took a banana out of his bag and ate it. Then he threw the banana peel on the path without the two walking noticing.
???: Aahhhh!!! slips
???: Almorante! worried
Zilpher secretly and quietly laughing Hahaha! That's what you get for not being faithful to Selena.
Almorante standing up and brushing off There must be something scattered on the path, Aerielle holding the banana peel
Aerielle: Hayyysss... How troublesome are those who litter the paths.
Zilpher (Aerielle?! Isn't that one of Selena's siblings??) You, man, you're really deceiving her siblings! irritated
He was also hurt whenever he saw Selena sad because of Almorante and Aerielle always being together.
At the Playground...
Almorante and Aerielle: Hahaha!!!!
Selena sadly hiding in a corner
Zilpher hiding behind a tree while watching Selena Sel... also feeling sad
And then they finished "kinder."
Suddenly, Zilpher received a letter...
Zilpher opening the letter
"Son, you need to come back to our place. Your father has had a heart attack!
-Mother"
Zilpher: Tsskkk!!!!
He immediately took the train and went home without even saying goodbye to Selena.
While on the train...
Zilpher (We were brought together but not destined...) Sel...
He remembered the times Selena had smiled at him...
Selena: Hehe! smiles
Zilpher: Hayyysss!!!!
When he arrived at his place, he immediately decided to hire someone to spy on everything Selena was planning and doing in her life and to learn everything about her.
Spy kneeling As you wish!
The next day, his father was also buried due to his heart condition.
At the funeral...
Zilpher looking at his father's coffin (Father, I promise you that I will protect our whole family no matter what happens...)
Because of his spy in Selena's place, he also discovered that Selena had "special" abilities similar to his.
Zilpher looking at his mirror (Today, Selena and I both have manifested something we cannot explain in our hands.)
That night...
His mother thoroughly explained to him their power of ice.
Zilpher (So that's why...)
And he continued to learn about everything happening with Selena...
Zilpher crumpling a photo Almorante is neglecting my Selena just to be with Aerielle! angry
He also learned whether Selena was happy or not...
Zilpher looking happily at photos Ah, Selena won a piano competition.
When he was ten years old, his family and others like them decided to overthrow the leaders of Easteria and kill everyone there because the people there secretly and ruthlessly killed others like them, considering them "plagues."
In a cave in Easteria...
There were meetings...
Zilpher's Mother: Kill them all!!!! shouted in anger
Afterward, they moved to live there and the Farleys ruled over all of Easteria, renaming it. It became known as Exolorus, which then became the strongest, most stable, and most powerful country in the world.
And when he turned twelve...
Something unexpected happened to him...
And he also learned that Selena had been captured or abducted...
Zilpher: Spy, find out where Selena has been taken!!! worried (Even Selena??!!!) Tsskkk!!!!
But he also failed to find Selena...
Zilpher slamming his study room table This cannot be! angry
After two months, he finally learned that Selena had returned to her parents' side.
Zilpher sighing Hayyysss!!!!
On his eighteenth birthday, his mother passed on the crown and the rule over the Exolorus country to him.
The people present cheered and applauded.
"King Zilpher! Zilpher!!!"
That night...
While he was lying in his room...
Zilpher (I wish you had been there earlier, Sel, when I was crowned as the new ruler of our country) Would you be happy that I am now the king of Exolorus??
And he continued to learn about everything happening with Selena, which Selena knew nothing about.
Now, back to the present...
Servant knocking on Selena's room door Duchess, your attire for tomorrow is here!
Selena: Come in and leave it here.
The servant entered the room and placed a large box with a white ribbon on Selena's bed.
Servant bowing I will leave now, Duchess.
Selena: Alright...
Servant leaving and closing the door
Selena opening and looking at her outfit for the important occasion tomorrow.
