We were once again busy fighting with monsters without any clue, If it was the right choice to stay and fight. I discussed with old man, But he said to stay and fight.
All I could do was except the order and follow it. We were being informed about the ceremony of next successor will also be Held at the Royal Banquet.
All of us were busy with a lot of things physically and mentally but the time keep going on without waiting for anyone.
***
One Year Later.....
Max who started to pack his things right away," I'm not going to wait anymore that's why right now I am packing it before any other order come and make us stay."
Fena who was also desperate to go back," Right! We never know from where any order can come."
Lucas who was watching both of them while slowly packing his things chuckles," Seems like you both will be died, If you don't get to go home today."
Fena and Max who were busy in packing things turns their faces towards Lucas, "Of course! We would die. What do you think we are doing here for five years? Every moment was full of suicide."
"How pathetic both of you can be? Like seriously you are now captain of your teams and yet acting like a child."
Max who snaps out after hearing Lucas words," Nice for you na, Enjoy your stay here. Since you can't accompany kids like us. Grown up people like you, Should stay on these grounds."
While the both of them were glaring at each other.
I already finished packing and I cannot waste a second to leave from here now. While I was trying to go out, The old man's visited us making serious faces.
I came closer to old man," What is it this time? Why are you making such a serious face for? Don't go on telling me that there is something new came."
Former emperor who was standing behind the duke stepped forward and grabbed Fena and Max from heads," Don't worry kiddos! We are finally leaving for home. Your Majesty send the letter informing that the preparation for welcoming us are started."
Max and Fena free themselves from the former emperor and stands in a distance from him," You say they will welcome us. Should we feel happy?"
"What are you saying Max? Of course, you should be happy? You Dad's is very proud of you, I believe he can't wait to see you so tall and grown up."
Max who was staring at the former emperor for a while, Gives an empty bright smile," If that were to be the case, It would be great na,"
From five years I have been watching Max. He truly is arrogant and sharp tongued, Looks down on others But he isn't so bad.
He always gives this kind of smile whenever it comes to the current emperor. Here he goes again with that smile.
Fena who stares at Max, Gives him a slap on back," Don't dilly-dally - just get your bag and let's go!"
"You Ugly! How hard did you slapped on my back? It's burning and even got red too."
"Stop lying! Come on! I did slap you hard, But it's not like, You checked it by yourself in a second."
"I can tell by the sensation on my back. You Idiot!"
"Let's get going now! If both of you are done. Everyone is ready."
"Yeah let's go....."
Two weeks passed by until then we finally reached to empire. Everyone was a little surprised by Empire citizens welcoming us.
Max who was totally ignoring everyone, Spots his little sister and gets down from his horse while running towards his sister.
While his sister ignores him and runs towards at other direction.
Max left standing dumb founded....
"Where is she running too? Hmm! Excuse me, That dude was in empire all this time."
Max who was surprised by his little sister action starts shouting at her," Where do you think? You are running too? Aren't I am here? Didn't you come to see me? Didn't you missed me all this time?"
Max who was on the brink of disappearing because of his despair.
Maria who is Max little sister fourteen years old with the appearance of blonde hair and blue eyes same as Max. She is totally Female version of Max.
Maria who turns her face back to Max on his words, Makes a disgusted expression on her face," Huh! Who said I am here to meet you, Or I missed you?"
Maria whose expression showed disgust towards Max, Suddenly changes to a bright lovely," I am only here to see my Alex. My Alex, You don't know after how many days I saw him?" While putting both of her hands around her cheeks.
"What the hell is this? He didn't even go anywhere, And you're still liking this a$$ of a guy? I thought you were over him."
Max who was so pissed gets closer to her sister and grabs her from mouth," Come with me, Stop going after such a bastard, Who never gives you attention and only ignores you."
"Brother you, How could you be so cruel to your little sister?", Maria kicks Max on his foot and leaves him behind.
Max who couldn't take such treatment from his sister, "My, My, Who would go on a date with such an ugly pig like you? Who doesn't know anything aside eating and dressing up? No, wonder Alex too runs away from you, Whenever he sees you."
Max who was spouting nonsense towards her sister while keeping his eyes closed gets punched in face by Maria.
"Who are you calling ugly pig? Apologize to me right now, Otherwise I am going to smash your a$$ right here, You pathetic womanizer."
Max who got punched rubs his cheek and stands in front of Maria while leaning his head closer to hers, Starts pushing each other," I did like to see, What you can do to me? You ugly pig. "
Both of them start pulling each other hairs and starts pushing each other down, falls onto the ground without noticing everyone was watching them with their mouth opens.
Citizens who were witnessing the fight between two selfish siblings and the highest titled people of the empire.
"Is this empire going to be okay? I mean, Look at the future Emperor and her Highness throwing each other on ground, As if they are in a wrestling."
The current emperor who was watching them, Speaks with a happy expression on his face," My kids are sure energetic and amusing to look at?"
A humble servant standing beside the emperor," Your Majesty! What are you saying? Everyone is looking at the Prince and Princess you need to stop them from fighting."
"What are you saying? No need to stop them, They greet each other this way. This is their way of showing affection towards each other."
Current emperor stands up from his seat and starts to leave," Max, You sure have grown up to a handsome and charming man. Maria too should start being honest."
(Flash back)
Emperor who was spending time with his wife and daughter suddenly lefts out by his daughter," Where are you going Maria?"
Maria who stands up and starts walking here to there," I am going to see Alex, I miss him a lot."
"You still after Alex, How long are you going to follow him?" Dietrich says in an upset tone.
Maria who was walking here to there stops in one place and faces her father with an adorable smile," Until I am out of feelings for him. I find joy in everyday seeing him even if he doesn't look at me. Only a Greeting from him makes me dance like an idiot in joy."
Emperor who looks at Maria with a surprised look at her adorable smile, Smiles back at Maria," I see! So you're going to follow him for the rest of your life, But remember Dad is here if you ever feel like quitting."
Maria glares at the emperor, "What dad? What do you mean quitting? Come on! You should cheer for me, Instead of saying such a mean thing."
"Okay! Okay! Dad's bad! I got it, I will support you."
Maria who smiles happily leaves the garden and goes on her way.
Lisa who was sitting beside the emperor looks at him," Are you that excited to see Max back? I don't get your majesty! You love Max so much, Yet you act mean to him. Ah! I forgot that's your family gene to act mean towards the people you like and care for?"
Emperor starts laughing lightly at Empress words and holds her hand," I am happy to see Max back, And I am going to see him now. They must have reached empire by now, And I apologize for our family mean gene."
Empress who looks at emperor with a kind look in her eyes, Starts laughing," You know! Maria too was excited like you, When she heard Max is coming today. She personally made dumplings for Max. She said to me, Max will feel bad if no one were to show up there to welcome him, And she doesn't want that to happen."
( Flash back Ends)
Former emperor who looks at them and comes closer, Start shouting," What are you doing? You idiots, Get up from the ground and get lost to royal Palace right now, On my orders."
Both of them stands up from the ground and follow the former emperor orders, Starts walking towards the carriage and leaves.
***
Everyone started to meet their families. I was just looking at them, but since I was the only one who wasn't meeting with anyone felt awkward and decided to look here and there. Meanwhile, Lucas came to me and stand side by side with me without saying anything.
'I was feeling a little good about how I don't need to feel awkward standing alone or to look at anyone, Without noticing I started to smile lightly.'
Lucas Mother, Who spots Fena and Lucas standing together from a distance, Grabs them and starts kissing them on cheeks," My children! You don't know how much I missed you in these five years? How much I had to hold back my kisses for my children's?
