"Some weird people came here and took some of our sick people ", she hesitated and bit his lower lips .
"I think , they said they are from church , they were wearing a long white robes and their heads was covered by hood . They said they were finding cure for this disease ; so they need people to test their cure . My husband was also one of them", she cried and I gave her water to calm her down . Then she continued.
"He was so serious , his eyes were red like blood . They took twelve people last month . But they didn't return and there is no news about them. We can't step outside this area due to order issued by the palace ", she took my hand and placed her forehead .
"I'm thankful for you , to cure our disease . I think , they're some mysterious powerful people . So , it's better for you not to involve in this matter ." she said and I can feel her tears in my hands .
"We already got many things from you , we can't be selfish . Thank you Miss ; We are very grateful to you and your friend ." she said and took me back to the house , where Daman was laid down.
"Thank you for telling me this ", I placed my hand on her hand . Then she smiled at me and went outside .
I went inside to check Daman's condition . He was already woke up and talking with the little girl.
"It seems , you are good now." I said to him and he gave me a reassuring smile .
"Thank you for taking care of me", he said to the little girl and took a chocolate from his pocket and gave it to her.
She smiled and left us alone . I sat beside him and checked his temperature by placing my hands on his forehead .
"Are you okay ? Do you feel any pain ?", I asked him and glanced all over him . He hugged me suddenly.
"I'm okay now ; it seems I recovered soon ; Thanks to someone taking care of this whole time ", he said and kissed my forehead by stroking my hair .
"I'm glad." I said and hugged him back.
"What time is it now ?" he asked me .
"It's already evening, we have to leave now . I know you can't use your magic now . So we can go to the next town and take a carriage." I said , because I don't want him to over work himself.
" No , I have enough power to teleport to the capital .Then we can take carriage to send you home", he said with a smile , but I know he's over working himself for my sake.
" Why are so stubborn ? We can just take carriage in next town." I was worried about him , but he isn't going to do what I'm saying.
"We shall go outside ", he dodged my statement and he went outside to give them farewell . I followed him and said farewell to those people.
I think it's good decision that I planned to visit this village . Even though I can see the river. But I know it's definitely the curse. Because holy water can heal the curse . Only Saint can heal the wounds and cure the disease , using magic.
We walked to a distance from where we got teleported , Daman suddenly grabbed my hand and chanted the teleportation spell . In a milli seconds we were in the market place of the capital city.
As soon we arrived , his foot stumbled. I looked at him by narrowing my brows.
"What were you thinking about doing this ? Are you out of your mind?" I shouted at him. I was so furious , because he didn't listen to my words.
"I'm sorry , I don't want to you walk in the forest and it's getting darker," his eyes are tired and still he is smiling and caring for me.
I hold his arms to support him and asked carriage driver to drive us. He said to the driver to go to my mansion first . He is still worrying about me . There is no mobile phone in this world or else I can inform his family members about his condition .
How will he travel after leaving me? Shall I just sneak him into my room ? Probably I would be first one to get caught . While I was thinking , suddenly he grabbed my hand and kissed it .
"Don't worry , I will reach my home safely . Here it comes ; your mansion " , he said by rubbing my cheeks , I turned to see , it's truly my mansion . I reached it so soon . I can even make him to send a message using magic because of his condition.
"Then ,I will contact Orkhis . Be safe." I said and he waved his hand from the carriage . I hope he will reach safely .
I went into my mansion , Ash was waiting for me with a magic stone lamp in her hand .
"Miss , I was worried about you , I thought you ran away," she whining in front of the door . By the way , where did she got this idea . Why would I ran away from this Diamond palace?
"Ash , cool down . I just got here late", I said in a low voice and grabbed her hand ; we went to my room. Gladly , I didn't collide with two time bombs (she meant her brother and father.)
I freshed up and wrote a letter to Orkhis. I gave it Ash , to deliver it tomorrow morning . Then, Ash gave me a letter , said it was a invitation from the first queen , Beatrice helianthus.
I was surprised to see her invitation , I don't know anything about her and we didn't even greeted each other in royal Ball. So , I was surprised.
When , I read the novel . It mentioned that she's ambitious and jealous of King's love towards second queen , Eve tulipa.
First queen, Beatrice helianthus is paternal aunt of Jullias helianthus. But , when I went to Helianthus mansion , I saw a portrait of her in the helianthus , it is said that previous grand Duke liked his younger sister very much ; so he kept her full portrait in the main hall with the permission of the emperor.
She was exactly like June , but her face was so elegant and graceful . I think she was surrounded by men in her prime. Why she have chose a man , who doesn't even love her.
Whatever , I don't know if she involved with Prince Lukhas ena tulipa , his son. But , I have to inform the trade guild about church activities and curse . I asked Ash , if there's any message came for me other than the tea party invitation.
She shaked her as 'No' . Then , I sent her to her dorm and sat to write my novel . I can't write because my mind is filled with today's incidents . What's the purpose of church to take sick people?
If Oliver doesn't know about this matter , then it's definitely sneaky .I didn't manage to say this matter with Daman , because of his health. I will inform him about this , once he recovers . Is he okay ?
Then , I went to bed and slept early . I woke up at dawn ; before my alarm .(Ash = alarm).
Ash came in and gave me a shock look. I'm not even in the mood to convince her. I asked her to prepare my bath and dress. After finishing my bath ,I dressed up and went to the dining hall , I have already missed breakfast yesterday .
I opened the door , My father and brother looked at me. I greeted them as usual and sat on my seat.
"Daisy , is something bothering you?" My father asked in a troubled voice.
"No, dad. I'm fine . Is something matter?" I asked him , he looked at his plate and started talking .
"It's just you are so busy , if you need anything , you can always ask daddy , okay?" he said and his eyes was full of worry.
"I'll make sure to tell you , then I have got an invitation for tea party from first queen. Do you know anything about her?" I asked him just to change the topic and his opinion about Beatrice helianthus .
"Is that so ? I thought she left high society after that incident ." he said by sipping his cup of tea .
"What happened father ?" I asked him , because I was really curious about her.
" That's right , You were a little kid on that time. It seems you're curious about her." he smiled . I waited for him to continue , he looked at my face and stopped drinking his tea and placed in the table. He waved his hand to make all the servants to get out . It's seems really important.
"She was a remarkable lady . All the men were head over heels for her . Even the previous emperor was the one who proposed to her." his eyes changed dull on the next moment.
"But suddenly one day , emperor took a commoner lady and announced her as second queen . Even all the nobles refused to accept it . But he stubbornly made her second queen . Then , one day he humiliated Beatrice in front of everyone saying she attempted murder to kill second queen ." his eyes was dark , he was silent for a moment.
"Then , is it true ? that Lady Beatrice..." I stopped.
