In the lavish room where the princess took her rest, Emily and her attendant were chatting with one another.
"What do you think Amy? Is there any suspicious magic around us?"
"I don't think so your highness, I hardly detect anything at all"
"Then, what about the high priestess Fuyuki? Is she strong? "
"I think, her magic capabilities and mana pool were on par with me.. "
"On par!? As expected of a high priestess..To think she has that. "
"Im not entirely sure, but I think she might be more stronger than me, especially when she has the goddess grace with her"
This might be worrying, because there's exist someone who might be more stronger than Amy the princess attendant.
Amy the Summerbrize has a title of Arcane Wizard, who devoted herself in guarding the Solomon royalty. She was said to have one of the largest mana pools in the kingdom.
Only those with exceptional skill and strength could even come close to matching her, and she was a force to be reckoned with. It's no wonder that i would be surprised when Amy said she was on par with her.
"I might be concealing my mana, but to think she doesn't even bother to do that. I don't know what they've been planning, but just in case, let's be careful your highness"
"Yes... They might be our friend in the past, but it doesn't mean they did right now, that's why im here.. To ensure we could getting help in order to protect Euresia"
"Thats right your highness"
Suddenly.
There was a knock on the door of the room, and as it opened, a knight appeared. his appearance was striking, with beautiful blonde hair and a handsome face. He was a prime example of a knight you would see in a fairy tale. The knight stood there with a serious expression on his face before bowing slightly to the princess and her attendant.
"A request to see her highness," he said respectfully, waiting for the princess's permission.
"Yes, come in Sir Albert"
"Thank you so much your Highness"
The knight named Albert straightened up, a smile could be seen across his face when being addressed directly by the princess.
But not long after that, his demeanor shifted immediately to a more serious and polite one, as he showed the respect due to royalty.
"Your highness, theres is something you should know"
"You may speak Sir Albert"
"The High Priestess wish to meet your Highness in private"
"Pardon me? But why would she request to meet me in private?"
Sir Albert nodded, aware of the suddenness of the request. "The High Priestess did not provide specific details, however she did mention something about wanting to have a private discussion with your highness, She just mention about The Seat of The High Tables"
The princess's eyes widen slightly upon hearing this, understanding the hidden meaning behind the High Priestess' words. The reference to the seat at the High Table was a code, a secret language understood only by those who were recognized to such information. To anyone else, it might have seemed like a simple matter of seating arrangements, but the princess knew it held a deeper significance.
At least for now she know the High priestess wasn't a threat for them.
"But why she told sir Albert directly like that? Isn't that a very dangerous method to arrange a private meeting? " The princess tought, thinking the every possibility that could happen.
"Umm.. Your highness? Is something matter? " Said Sir Albert wondering if there is something wrong.
"No, nothing... Thank you so much Sir Albert, is there anything else that you like to convey? "
"That's all your highness, then please, excuse me... See you later your highness, please enjoy your rest"
After a while Sir Albert leave the room, Amy and the princess looking at each other, "that phrases was only used by a loyal servant to our kingdom" The princess said to Amy her attendant.
"But my father didn't said anything about this, I believe if there is somene who this powerful that loyal to our kingdom, he would already mention it to me"
"I'm agree your highness, then.. There's only one way to confirm it, the token.. "
"Yes, the token, if she has the Alcatraz token with her, then I could trust her"
The token of ALCATRAZ was a sacred and symbolic artifact known only to a select few individuals or families within the kingdom. It held deep significance, representing an unbreakable bond of loyalty to the Solomon kingdom's royalty. The ceremony in which the token was given was secret in the most sacred of traditions, involving a binding contract that tethered the bearer to the kingdom for life. This ensured that those who possessed such a token would be willing to go to great lengths to protect and serve the royal family.
Amy As the princess's attendant, was not only a trusted caretaker and companion, but she was also a proud bearer of the ALCATRAZ token as well.
She Know, that Alcatraz token was a symbol of her unwavering loyalty and devotion to the Solomon royal family, one that was deeply respected in the kingdom. She had undergone the sacred ceremony and bound herself to the kingdom's service for life and she chooses to do so because how grateful she is.
"Let's met her after the discussion about the Wars Amy"
"Yes, your highness"
