After we woke up the next day inside the pink castle of Lotus, we were invited to have breakfast with Keiko before our meeting with the royal family.
The only reason we had to talk to Keiko's family was because Melina was also a princess from another country, and I was her professor, so we were technically counted as the guests of the royal family.
However, we also needed to ask them about the relic we were looking for. In Guanghua, the existence of the relic was somewhat of a myth that they passed down in the royal family.
Renjun knew about the relic, but only as a tale, so I was expecting the royal family of Lotus to have similar knowledge.
An hour after breakfast, we were guided to the throne room, where the king and queen sat on their thrones while the first prince stood beside them.
"Honored guests, welcome to the nation of Lotus…" said a servant as he bowed while we entered the room.
"Hey, Ichi…" Melina whispered.
"What's up?"
