After that incident with the maid, Princess Ria cooped up in her room refusing to meet anyone, the other prince and princess visited her often to get her out of the room but it was of no use, finally, the king couldn't bear all the pressure he is getting from this incident decided to send princess Ria out on vacation for some time and let her recuperate her health.
The grand Chamberlin agreed and made the preparations for everything. Still, at the last moment, the prophet suddenly announced he would go with her on vacation, surprising everyone the king at first opposed it but later he agreed after listening to the prophet's reasoning.
they started their journey with two carriages surrounded by powerful guards for their protection, Princess Ria, throughout their journey her eyes glued to the glass window with many emotions in her eyes, since the palace they have to reach in a day's journey, the prophet didn't mind her and was reading on his own.
they finally reached when it was almost close to midnight, after freshening themselves they went to their respective rooms, the guards stationed for their protection lowered their guard as they were in a pretty remote area.
Princess Ria who was supposed to be in her room sleeping snuck out of the palace without anyone noticing her she then moved cautiously into the nearby forest, and after walking for a long time she reached a familiar cave, the cave where Estelle was held as an experimental subject, she nervously went inside the cave, after Princess Ria walked inside a shadow emerged from the nearby bushes and soon followed her inside the cave.
IN THE KINGDOM OF DRAGAO
in the castle Estelle was resting, Queen Jane Ryker was treating Estelle with everything she could along with other doctors, the captain Sir Gilton and the rest were walking on eggshells with given condition of their Princess, he made everyone take turns guarding the princess up close, Silvia followed Jane's every instruction was very attentive towards the Estelle,
it's been two days since Estelle fainted and was showing no sign of waking up, Herald the former king, and Cloe Ryker the duke visited the castle hoping for a piece of good news, Queen Jane Ryker gave them everything she understood about Estelle's situation, as they were discussing they heard a loud sound from they immediately stood up and went outside and were shocked to see Sir Gilton and Silvia were thrashing a person, that person happens to be one of their knights
Sir Gilton instructed the other soldiers to hold him as a captive and be sure on the lookout while he turned to the former King Herald,
"Your majesty pardon my impudence I hope you can listen to my concern once"
in the system space, Estelle lay on the grass with Evelyn on her side her training has improved a lot over the month since the system and the outside world has huge time difference it really benefitted her in the last one month in the system is one day outside, her training improved quite significantly,
Rex and Elmo were training her together and also, they are teaching Evelyn alongside her,
Elmo came to them with a smile, "now lazy people should get up and eat something to train later"
Estelle and Evelyn showed a disappointed look, Elmo chuckled at them and said "if Rex comes after you, I won't help"
"Elmo you should not listen to the grumpy gramps he is annoying," said Estelle
"Yes, yes brother Rex always tries to teach me something my head buzzes while I am with him," said Evelyn while catching her head
Estelle and Evelyn then stood up and followed Elmo to the courtyard in the system space, Estelle reminded herself to check her status window.

Estelle stood in horse stance for 2 hours and practiced with her wooden sword for 3 hours but the system only gave her the quest points and not additional points, at least it took her training into account as exp points increased to 3.
Estelle closed her status window and became quite puzzled with the settings of the stingy system which is not even considering to give her any additional rewards, frustrated Estelle went outside the courtyard walked for a while, and then started running laps around the tree
earlier when Estelle was walking suddenly system notifications popped up surprising her, they read
[you have gained 5 agility points by walking for 15 minutes without stopping]
seeing the notification Estelle made a bold guess and started running while stabilizing her breathing, her guess was correct
[you have gained 5 strength points and 5 stamina points by walking for 15 minutes without stopping]
Estelle stopped running, panting she clutched her knees and grinned as she saw the notification, she made up her mind to ask Elmo to toughen up her training routine.
