*Scritch Scratch
The noise of the my pencil and the paper filled the silent room. It was pleasant to hear the sound. The golden rays of the setting sun shone on my sketch making the paper glitter.
"What are doing miss?" asked Anisa in a low voice enough to break the silence but not scare me.
"I was impressed by lady Sheng's appearance that I was sketching her. Her dark green hair that was tied up in two buns. Her sharp blue eyes that had an intense gaze. The tough but a beautiful posture that resembles a proper princess. She is an ideal person." I replied.
"She is graceful but her personality is not the best." said marchioness Belle.
Both of them sat on either side of me. Anisa put her head down on the table and said "How is our princess so talented? You can draw, dance, sing and play piano so beautiful being so young."
"Practice.... anything can be achieved with practice." I replied.
"That's true. Also the emperor and the third prince will be leaving tomorrow." said marchioness Belle.
"Leaving? To where?" I asked.
"You haven't heard?"
"SOMEONE forgot to tell me!" I glanced at Anisa who tried avoiding my eyes.
"Oh my Anisa, you shouldn't do that!" said marchioness Belle
"I m sorry, I forgot." replied Anisa.
"It's alright. Now tell me." I said.
"I heard that the ruler of Forestry continent, emperor Ivan III, his highness, the emperor and his highness, the second prince will be departing to meet the ruler of Demonial continent, empress Alexandra."
This world is divided into three races- The Elves, The humans and The demons. All the races live in their own continents which is connected by portals- Forestry continent, which is home to the elves; Golden continent, home to the humans; and the Demonial continent, home to demons. Each land was blessed with a magnificent creature. Forestry was blessed by a fairy, Golden was blessed by Three headed serpent and the Demonial was blessed by a giant dragon. All the three races are similar looking to each other with a little difference. Elves have pointy ears and Demons have three eyes and sharp teeth except these things there is no more difference. The typical nature and personality of each is based on the creatures that blessed them. Fairy is a creature which is more towards peace and good speech delivery, because of which Elves tend to negotiate any conflict, Dragon is a creature that is very aggressive and harsh and because of which Demons tend to resolve the conflicts through war or dual, Three Headed Serpent is a creature who lust for gold and is good at mind game because of which humans tend to play Political games and quite assassination to solve conflicts.
"Originally the crown prince was supposed to go with the emperor but because of the ball that is after four days he couldn't so, the second prince is going." said marchioness Belle.
"But why are they departing?" I asked.
"It is because since 10 years whenever the continent had meetings with each other empress Alexandra never showed up but her chancellor did." replied marchioness Belle.
"Oh my! Isn't that insulting the empires and the rulers it self!?" said Anisa all shocked.
"Yes, I believe that is why everyone is going to the Demonial continent themselves." replied Belle calmly.
"10 years does feels kind of strange." I said.
"Anyway are done with your sketch?" asked Belle.
"Ah yes please take a look." I replied handing her the page.
"I want to see too!!" said Anisa.
"Here." Belle handed her the page.
"Wow!! Like I said before, our princess is very talented!" said Anisa in amazement
"Okay Anisa what is that you desire? I can see your intentions clearly." I said.
"Oh my princess, I would never fake flatter you! Not at all! But if we are on the subject I would like to go on a walk with you near the Delphine palace." she said.
"The one near the knights training ground?" asked Belle.
"Ah yes that one. It is said to be very beautiful." replied Anisa.
"Alright! Which one of the knights do you have a crush on?" I asked.
"Huh? Umm ..... Haha .... I-I-It's not like that... hehe." said Anisa.
Belle and I looked at her with a suspicious for a while.
"Okay fine it's sir Gregory." she finally replied.
"I knew it!" I said.
"Don't worry Anisa I will help you. So, don't trouble our princess." said Belle.
