- Why are you refusing to participate in the tournament? Any stufon agreed without hesitation. - The director said in surprise looking at Trey.
- I'm not interested, this tournament is like the next one, so I'll give my place to a more worthy one at your discretion. - Answering the question, Trey replied in a calm voice, looking at both deans and the director.
The director could only sigh in annoyance, Trey was right he could refuse to participate in the tournament at will. There were plenty of people who wanted to take part in the tournament.
Looking at Trey for another second, he realized that he would not change his mind, he waved his hand releasing them. Bowing, Trey and Keirin headed in the same direction, the light elf and Heya looked in their direction, both were surprised by Trey's decision not to participate in the tournament, as well as the personality of his servant. After saying goodbye to each other, they parted ways.
Walking down the corridor with Keirin, I got tired of catching glances directed at her. Knowing that she would try to take revenge on me somehow, for becoming my servant, I tried to prepare, but when I saw her in the clothes of a maid, I felt how my faith began to leave me.
Keeping a calm expression on our faces, we went to the warehouse, received the key to a separate house on the territory of the academy, and headed there. Some light elves saw Keirin and tried to approach her and speak, but after a glance at these light elves, they froze and changed their minds.
I understood that having one of the prominent princesses of the world in my servants, the hunt would soon begin for me. So I needed to get stronger. The tournament could only slow down my strength increase and unleash my moves, which could make it easier for my opponents to find weaknesses in my attacks and defense.
Approaching the house, I noticed that it was multi-storey, made of white stone, some rooms had a glazed balcony. Entering inside, Keirin and I began to look around, I was surprised by what I saw, Keirin was given a memory. As in the hostel where I lived before, tables and chairs were located on the ground floor and a large mirror hung on the wall, into which a couple of elves were now looking, but when they saw us, they turned around to look at me and then switched to Keirin.
- And you're the popular Keirin, it won't be fun to hide your location with you. - I said in a cheerful voice, heading for the elevator, unlike the hostel I lived on the ninth floor.
Hearing the annoyed clatter, I couldn't help but smile, the princess who became a servant, what thoughts would those who learn this news I was afraid to imagine.
Having risen to our floor, we were greeted by a white corridor decorated with various frescoes and paintings. Unlike other hostel, I could smell the wealth and luxury. The door was decorated with the coat of arms of the academy under the coat of arms there was a handle on which guests could knock when they came to him.
Opening the door, a large living room appeared in front of them, to the right of it there was a hanger and a place for shoes, taking off our shoes we went into the living room where there were two white sofas that suited the floor well, which shimmered with metallic and white, the walls were more metallic than white. The table was transparent, it could fit dishes of different sizes for several people. Surprised, she turned to Keirin who calmly sat on the sofa with her legs crossed and looked at me.
- How is this room for a young master? - Asking a question in Keirin's caustic tone.
Sighing, I foresaw such an attitude. Having gone to the sofas, I sat down and indicated with my hand that she sat down opposite me, starting to look at her. She was beautiful, but her character, which could spoil the impression of her as an obedient princess, carrying out any orders coming from the queen or king, was a surprise to many.
- Keirin, I propose to discuss our situation. - Trying to keep calm in my voice, I said looking into her eyes.
- What exactly do you want to discuss? My attitude in society will be as it should be for a servant to the master if you care about your secrets, you don't have to worry, as a servant I can't harm the master. - Keirin said angrily getting up from her chair and went to the window.
- I do not want to treat you like a servant, our situation may not be easy, but we can get out of this situation with a benefit for the two of us. - Watching as she approaches the window, I began to think about what I can offer her.
- Difficult situation? You are the one who made me your servant without asking me if I want it or not! A difficult situation is when you refuse a tournament for reasons you know, this is a difficult situation, and this is a terrible situation in which I found myself because of you! - Keirin screamed and stared at me angrily, her hands shaking with anger, she squeezed them and unclenched them.
Sighing, I got up from the sofa and went to the window near which she was standing, seeing that I was walking in her direction, she took a couple of steps back, fearing that I was going to do something to her.
- Do you know what is common in our situation? - I asked thoughtfully, looking out the window where the stufons were visible that came out of the hostel and someone, on the contrary, entered the hostel
Keirin wanted to scream that they had nothing in common but decided to consider his words, like her he was the one to turn away from, but unlike her, he had no talent for magic. Because of her talent for magic, they wanted to marry her to an old elf. He turned out to be chosen by the goddess, which meant that a real hunt of all races could begin for him.
- The common thing is that we are outcasts, you are chosen by the goddess of chaos, abdicated by the emperor, I, the runaway princess, refused to marry the one who was chosen as my husband. - Thoughtfully looking at Trey, Keirin said their fates were different, but they were also similar.
- That's right, that's why I'm suggesting a relationship not a servant and a master, but partners, your enemies are my enemies in the same way and vice versa. - I said in a serious voice, looking at Keirin, who began to nervously bite her lower lip.
- Partners? Even if your enemies are all the light elves of this world? - She asked in a puzzled voice, she already expected to hear the answer.
- Yes, regardless of the orcs, light, dark elves, people or gods, all who stand in our way will be destroyed. - I said in a serious voice, taking slow steps towards her.
Keirin, listening to my words, could not help but deny that she was tired of hiding like a rat in the store where she worked. She looked me straight in the eye trying to get inside my mind, I decided to go and show how honest I was I opened my mind to see what I was thinking all this time. Her vision became blurred, after a couple of seconds she returned to consciousness in her eyes there was no more anger towards me, only rage directed somewhere further than me.
- If we are partners, you need to become stronger and more powerful. - Keirin said in a serious voice full of rage.
- Do you want to destroy the light elves? - Raising an eyebrow, I asked in a surprised voice looking at her.
- If they make a move, then we must show them that it was their mistake to provoke us. Nodding her head at my question while explaining her words, Keirin said earlier.
- Partners? I asked, holding out my hand to her, trying to keep a calm expression on my face and voice.
Looking at me and at Keirin's hand, she extended hers.
- Partners. Keirin replied in a melodious voice as she accepted her fate.
