Chapter 5 - Still more conflicts?

Do you know how much I wanted to have a son as an heir to the throne...if only weren't for you, your mother will be-"

Suddenly lady Bubbly grips the shoulder of King Delulu and then slap him across the face!

Narrator: The sound of the slaps echoes the ballroom as people stare in shock at the unbelievable things happening in front of them. Some even questioned themselves if they really signed up for this?

Lady Ria's sunglass slips down from her face as she watches in shock. The armor of great knight Sir Stalwart vibrates violently and unmantle itself as for the first time seeing someone landing a slap on their great king.

"Never, absolutely never say that ever again." with her index finger near to king Delulu face, lady Bubbly furiously threatened him.

"There are things that can't be said to a child and you just went ahead and crossed that limit. What will you do if she ever runs away?"

King Delulu slowly rubs across the face where his sister slapped and then turns to respond to her.

"Tch..at this point I won't care less..." King Delulu muttered softly.

"Oi, Delulu stop it already!"

"So..you won't care if I run away.." Yumeko softly speaks out. "Fine, then I'm leaving and never coming back!" saying that Yumeko furiously dashes over her farther, pulls up her gown, and runs towards the exit of the ballroom.

Everyone watches in awe as they see their princess running away with tears dripping down from her cheek continuously.

"Yumeko, stop!" lady Bubbly desperately tried to stop her niece who is running away feeling heartbroken. She then turns to king Delulu in anger.

"Your daughter is running away...I mean do something" She furiously demanded.

But king Delulu stands there silently without doing anything.

At a distance, she sees, Charice heading towards the ballroom.

"I wonder if the banquet has been over, the noise has suddenly dropped down"

Charice after finishing taking a round is finally heading inside the castle to check how the things are, knowing that King Delulu is present there.

"wait..isn't that-" Charice was caught off guard as he sees Yumeko running towards him in tears."Yumeko-sama?"

Yumeko passes Charice without saying anything.

"Charice, please look after Yumeko chan" lady Bubbly shouts at him from the ballroom.

Charice quickly understood what might have occurred, because he has been dealing with this stuff ever since Yumeko was still a young girl.

He turns towards the ballroom and immediately obeys. "No worries, leave it to me lady bubbly" Charice bows down before running after Yumeko.

"You went too far today, brother." Lady Bubbly said towards King Delulu who has been looking for quite a disdain for some time now.

"I understand the burden you are bearing right now is more than before ever since Gorgiana-Yumeko's mother has gone into a coma state. Sighs..but you just can't throw your little daughter in a perilous path just because you wanted it."

King Delulu listen silently, he just stood there with his head hung down probably regretting a bit for what he have done.

"Oh lord.." lady Bubbly takes a heavy breath and sighs.

She then towards the crowd who was looking at them with an awestruck face, waiting patiently for an explanation.

"Everyone, now then our little family drama is over. Let's all enjoy the dinner, shall we? Yumeko chan will be back shortly. So let's just go ahead and enjoy it first ahahaha"

Lady Bubbly quickly goes into her charismatic mood and tried to fix the awkward situation that her brother and niece created.

"Let's go.. let's go...Franz can you bring up the dishes..we are all starving here. Do you need a few hands perhaps?"

Everyone without saying anything quickly follows lady Bubbly trails to lighten up the mood.

Narrator: Everyone except lady Ria, she hasn't yet recovered from the shock. She stands in the middle of walking people with her jaw drop...A moment passed by then she finally expresses it.

"What the actual heck was that???!"

Meanwhile, on the balcony, someone has been observing the whole drama going doing in the ballroom as if as a kind of entertainment show. She places her hand on the wooden .. and looks down while she seeps the wine casually.

After seeing Yumeko run outside, her body slowly stretches up from kneeling against the wood.

"Ah...is it over already?" She said regretfully. "I was planning to get some popcorn before the climax-oh well." Then she extends her hand and grabs the wine from a waiter who was passing by without turning her body. The waiter also walks passes her not knowing the wine from his plate is missing.

"anyway...is almost time. I should better get over with the preparation." after saying that the old woman wrapped in a purple shawl on her head walks away with a humpy back towards the royal chamber.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Narrator: Just a few miles away from the mighty castle, Florence there lies a small peaceful village in the southern region of the kingdom of Deamwittz.

Josh and Victor, two young lads of the village are helping in moving out the luggage and some belongings for a friend. As the night falls, the two hastened up to finish the work as soon as possible.

"One, two, and three. Heave-ho"

[Thump]

Josh and Victor hold each side of a heavy luggage bag and tossed it inside a two-wheel horse cart.

"Was this the last one?" Josh asked as he clean up the debris from his clothes left behind in the carry bags.

"Most of the heavy ones are over..now probably left is that laundry bag and his personal belongings," Victor replied.

"But seriously..that asshole is not coming out to help carry out his stuff."

"Oi, Jack we are letting the horses go all alone, with your luggage" Victor calls out for the person who is supposed to leave the town, but is dwindling inside the room without giving any response.

"Look at how he is playing dumb." Josh Scuffed

"But oh my...I almost got a headache after carrying one of his bags"

"You mean that dark greyish bag." Victor pointed at the luggage who is being crumbled in between other kinds of stuff.

"Yeah..what the heck is there inside?" Josh asked

"It is his clothes" Victor blatantly replied.

"Damn...why is it so stinky?"

"One time he told me while we were going out..that he doesn't take shower for a month"

"Damn..." Victor throws a disgusted look hearing that reply. Looking inside the house he says "Man..you seriously need to start taking bath...otherwise you are going to scare away your girlfriend, princess Yumeko."
