"No! Mother! Don't leave me again!"
Princess Cerllynda woke up from her sleep, gasping for breath with sweat dripping down her forehead. Also she was crying, she found her tears dripping. Gently wipe it with the back of his hand.
"Just a dream," muttered Princess Cerllynda, who was now sobbing because she felt so longed for her mother who had left her about 8 years ago.
"Princess, are you all right?" asked his servant who came into his room hearing his screams.
"It's okay, I just had a bad dream. Is my bath water ready?" said Princess Cerllynda to her two maids.
"Ready Princess."
Hearing that, he immediately got out of bed and went into the bathroom. He felt as if his dream just now was real. Meeting his mother, his embrace, his caress, everything was felt for him. Even though in reality it was just a dream.
"Why did you leave me so soon?"
Princess Cerllynda sobbed in the bathroom. She wanted to cry in his mother's arms, telling all that he had gone through alone without his mother. She wants her mother now and forever.
Realizing that today was the match that would decide who would marry her, she quickly finished her bath and wiped away her tears.
She slowly inhaled and exhaled slowly. He repeated it over and over again to feel calmer.
She decided to get out of the bathroom when he felt calmer. She walked over to the wardrobe and sorted out the dress she was going to wear today. She chose a plain light green dress, the design was very simple but very charming.
The two maids immediately helped her make up. From combing her hair to attaching accessories or jewelry to Princess Cerllynda's body. At this moment he stood, staring at himself in the reflection of the mirror in front of him. As usual, the two maids praised the beauty of the princess who everyone thought she was the prettiest in Carvandalle.
Princess Cerllynda and her two maids walked out of the kingdom into the field. In that wide field beside the kingdom, a field that was indeed used for fighting or so on. Everyone is here to witness this fight. The atmosphere in the field was very lively.
His heart beat faster, he felt very afraid of his fate as well as Gressylia. He could not accept if the winner had to fall on someone else. He is now being selfish to get what he wants.
He immediately went up to the stage which had provided two chairs for the king and the Crown Princess. Also some maids standing there. With an anxious heart Princess Cerllynda sat there beside King Carlin.
"Alright everyone! Here it is, Prince Cardwell, Prince Alberen, Master Dario, Master Freedx and Gressylia. The five of them will fight. Whoever wins, he will marry Princess Cerllynda!" cried King Carlin telling everyone.
They sneered at Gressylia who dared to propose to the princess. They whispered to each other making the atmosphere of the field very lively. Princess Cerllynda could hear it, she also saw two little girls standing among the other residents, their faces looking very worried.
"I beg Gress, win this for me," said Princess Cerllynda while cupping her hands as if she was praying for the Gressylia she hoped for.
Gressylia and the other four stood in the center of the field. Gressylia just kept quiet with a calm face, she continued to stare at Princess Cerllynda's worried face. Knowing Gressylia was staring at him, he gave a small smile hoping that everything would be fine.
"I hope everything will be fine. However, I can't guarantee that I will win this fight," thought Gressylia, who was starting to feel doubtful and didn't want to make the princess hope for her.
A royal commander will guide this event to the end. The grown man wore armor and a sword on his back. He had already started talking to start the fight.
First is Gressylia against Dario, then the winner will be against Freedx, then Alberen and Cardwell finally. For some reason he came first, most likely it was on purpose to beat him easily.
Now Gressylia and Dario were standing tall in the middle of the field both of them exchanged glances. There was just no look of hatred or anger. Even Gressylia could see Dario smiling slightly as if to say that everything would be fine. Gressylia couldn't understand the meaning of Dario's calm gaze and smile.
"Start!" shouted the commander began berterungan both of them. Gressylia and Dario nodded their heads at each other and then charged at each other.
Rana and Rina held each other's hands. They were both very afraid if something happened to their sister. Because they only had Gressylia alone in her life. An older sister who is also a parent to them.
Princess Cerllynda had her hands clasped together, she felt very scared by all of this. He didn't want to see Gressylia lose, even when Dario managed to hurt Gressylia he almost screamed hysterically calling Gressylia's name.
"Lord, help me, give justice for him," whispered Princess Cerllynda, who continued to pray non-stop hoping that everything would be fine and go according to her expectations.
Gressylia and Dario finally won the battle between Gressylia and Dario. He will now fight the others. Princess Cerllynda sighed, she couldn't stop worrying about Gressylia moreover she was already hurt.
"Please hold on, Gress," Princess Cerllynda whispered, continuing to hope.
Meanwhile, Gressylia is currently busy fighting with Freedx. Both of them looked equally strong, but he didn't use his abilities at all. He only used his martial skills to fight and dodge Freedx.
"Brother Gress! Use your will! You will definitely win!" shouted Rana and Rina who hoped that her brother would show his prowess. But it's not.
"Brother Gress!" they shouted again as Gressylia was knocked to the ground. But, Gressylia got back up while trying to hold her wound.
"Can I heal the wound?" said Rana who panicked, moreover there was blood coming out of Gressyli's hand.
"No, remember what Brother Gress said. Everything will be fine," said Rina tightly gripping the arms of her twin sister.
After several times Gressylia almost lost, she finally won the fight and repelled Freedx. However, he had not won, he had to beat two more people, Cardwell and Alberen.
Gressylia tried her best even though his body was already injured, blood was trickling down his memory and the corners of his lips. However, he defeated Alberen and faced Cardwell. The prince glared at Gressylia, there was hatred in his eyes. He even smirked thinking that Gressylia would lose because she had suffered enough injuries on her body.
"Let's get ready to succumb to the poor young man!" said Cardewell with a smirk mocking the wounds on his body.
