Samantha, returning to her room tired after two days of watching Nreu and Heya, she could tell that Nreu was a very hot-tempered guy and envious of other people's successes.
His sister was calm trying to help him reach his goal. She, like everyone else, was shocked by the final result, she could not ask what Trey was doing to Cassandra, who was looking after him during the third test.
She, like a senior student whose wards passed, received benefits and currency and the opportunity to take part in this year's tournament.
Deciding to take a shower to freshen up, thoughts and find out how Cassandra's observation of the half-elf went, they had a weekend today and could relax, go for a walk, and tomorrow it was already necessary to go to school. Like any stufon, she did not want to study. But as the next heir to the throne, she must have knowledge of how the world works.
Unlike her older sister, she couldn't run away and leave the light elf kingdoms to their fate. After taking a shower and coming out of it wrapped in towels, with wet hair, she noticed how her ritual stone was going crazy.
The message, everyone walked and walked, someone tried to contact her, not understanding what was happening. The call stopped and a new call began, seeing who was trying to contact her, she answered with a sigh.
- Hail the king and queen. Samantha said in a respectful voice, bowing her head slightly with one hand holding a towel with the other and trying to put her hair in order with the other.
- Let's get straight to the point we don't have time do you know about your sister Keirin? - The queen asked in a serious voice looking at Samantha's reaction.
Samantha didn't like how she was sometimes treated by the king and queen not as a daughter, but as a subordinate, but she could only wait until she graduated from the academy and returned to the kingdom of the light elves.
- No, I haven't seen her for a long time, what happened to her? - Samantha asked, surprised by the subject of their call, she really had not seen her for a long time.
- What are you doing at the academy? You should have found out and immediately told us, not us! - Annoyed said the queen, looking at Samantha.
Samantha wanted to taunt the queen, but she restrained herself. This was not the first and not the last conversation between them.
- In case you haven't noticed, I just got out of the shower! What happened to Keirin? - She asked a more important question for her than arguing with the queen.
The queen looked at Samantha, snorted in annoyance and began to tell the latest news that shocked everyone.
- Your sister today came to your academy and it turns out she became a servant of some half-elf Trey, she showed that she obeys him, your task is to return her to the kingdom of the elves. The Queen spoke in a commanding tone.
Listening to the queen's words, Samantha's face changed from surprise, anger and disbelief. Her sister became a servant of that half-elf Trey? But how? The last time she and they talked, Samantha didn't notice any changes in her outward appearance. Perhaps it happened recently?
- If the half-elf refuses to let her go? Samantha asked thoughtfully.
- According to the rules of the academy, you can challenge any student right? - The Queen asked in an everyday voice.
Not understanding what she was getting at, she began to remember the rules for a challenge to a rating fight. She could challenge anyone below her and could only challenge those above her once a month.
- Yes, but I don't know his rating, if he is higher than me then I can challenge him once. But what should I bet if he wins? - Asked in a puzzled voice Samantha especially did not like the look of the queen.
Rules for a challenge to a rating battle, each of the opponents set the conditions if he wins, he gets what he put in addition to the rating. This was rarely practiced, stufons could put anything they wanted.
- I think I answered your question, what do you bet on his victory. If he is greedy he will agree if he is a coward he will refuse, you will challenge him every month until he agrees. - The queen spoke in a gloomy voice, Samantha knew that she was right if he was greedy, then he would agree and definitely lose to her, but she did not like that she had to bet as a win.
- As you command, queen, let me start getting ready. - Said in a sad voice Samantha intending to end the conversation.
- Don't let Samantha down. - The king spoke in a sad voice, he did not like to use it like that, but there was no other way out.
Turning off the conversation with the king and queen, Samantha wanted to cry and felt so dirty that she wanted to go to the shower again.
Trying to calm down, she chose Cassandra's contact by dialing her while she waited for an answer she thought about what to go in she did not know anything about him except that he was a talented swordsman and possibly a magician.
