Chapter 28 - Chapter Twenty Eight

~Cities of Precious Stones~

Prince Lansel and Niamh were done having their meals and Lansel decided to take Niamh on a tour. 

They both appeared in front of a large sapphire blue gate. 

"Welcome to the City of Precious Stones. 'The Sapphire City' to be precise" Lansel gestured and the large door opened. Niamh's eyes twinkled in admiration and surprise as she explored the wonderful Sapphire city. 

The dazzling Sapphire City is really fit for its name; everywhere is just sapphire blue. The long path was tied in blue stones, the houses stood in rows, all in shades of blue. The windows and doors of the houses were all designed with sapphire blue stones. There are shops that stood out in the city, each painted blue and stocked with blue items. Kids were playing around, all wearing blue clothes. 

Even a candy shop was stocked with blue candies and kids were lined up, buying candies and paying off with blue coins. Everyone in that city is wearing blue, including the pets and birds are all blue. Even the sky has a unique tint of sapphire blue. The City is bustling and busy. With the way everything looked, they're all happy. 

Niamh gaped at the brilliant blue colourations. Her, wearing sapphire blue dress made her look like she's from the Sapphire City. Anyone who comes across them bowed briefly before walking away. Seems the prince is recognized and known in this city. 

"Do you like it that much?" Lansel smirked and asked. That's when Niamh remembered that she's not here alone. She looked around one more time before turning to Lansel.

"This is so magnificent, awesome and magical! It is just so... Out of this world!!" She squealed. 

" And you look just like those here" Lansel stated, scrutinizing her. That's when it dawned on her that she's also wearing a sapphire blue dress. She jumped in excitement like a child who just received a candy from her dad.

"Did my maids know that beforehand?" She asked, beaming with smiles.

" I told them" Lansel shrugged, his eyes darted around the city. 

"Can we take a walk round the city, please?" She couldn't hide her excitement as her silver eyes twinkled like a million stars were glittering within them. 

"We won't take long" Lansel said and walked away, she squealed and trailed behind him. 

Just ahead of them, a young beautiful girl with a shining blue hair and blue eyes, wearing a blue dress approached them. She was holding a bunch of blue rose flowers.

She bowed her head towards the prince and then turned to Neev with a cute smile. She handed the flower to her

"This is for you. You're very beautiful" the girl's soft voice was heard. Niamh gasped in surprise. She'd always loved and adored children even when she was in the Calm Region, the kids were all her friends. And also, she's obsessed with flowers, anyone who gives her flowers will effortlessly win her heart.

She shot Lansel a stare and he nodded at her, giving her a 'go ahead'. Niamh gladly collected the flower.

"Thank you. What's your name?" She asked.

" Sheila" the little girl replied.

"Can I hug you?" She asked again. Neev felt a tingling feeling in her heart, staring at the little girl. Seeing her smile made her feel so emotional. She slowly nodded and the little girl jumped into her embrace.

"You're really beautiful, princess" Sheila stated.

" Call me Neev" Niamh replied as they disentangled.

Sheila shot her one last beautiful smile before running back to her mother, who was waiting for her beside a stall. 

The mother waved her hand at Neev, who waved back in return.

Lansel stood there, admiring the silver haired angel as her stood there staring at the flowers and smiling. Niamh slowly turned to him and he cocked his head to one side, giving her a 'let's go' look. 

"I've heard a lot about the Moon Realm, but I've never heard of the City of Precious Stones" Niamh stated.

"You find noble Ladies and Lords from powerful houses in the palace. House Styrix is quite an example. The richest and most powerful. Literally with a legend reputation. That's why our bloodline is still ruling for years" Lansel explained. 

Niamh couldn't comprehend why he said that, but she knew there's something he's trying to tell her about the royalties. 

"And you find the most richest merchants and businessmen here in the Cities of Precious Stones. Sapphire gemstones are easiest to find here" Lansel continued, however. 

" Does that mean it is unknown to outsiders?" Niamh asked. 

" It is the safest place on Earth. Very discreet to outsiders. If an outsider is to know about the Cities, then I doubt if there'll ever be peace"

" They'll fight to get the gemstones?" Niamh asked, innocently batting her lashes.

"They will" Lansel shrugged his shoulders.

He continued walking but paused midway as if he remembered something.

"Did Rialorna really told you she's my fiancee?" He suddenly asked. 

Niamh rolled her eyes and scoffed

"She did say that" she replied, her eyes darting around. Somehow, she wanted to keep her eyes busy so that her anger will not come back. 

"Don't let her fool you again. She's just my friend. I got no feelings for her" Lansel stated and Niamh stared weirdly at him and then burst out laughing.

Lansel shot her a stare and creased his brows. He wonder what's the funny thing he said that made her laugh, so hard.

"You sound like a cheating husband caught with another lady and you're trying to explain things to your wife" Niamh said at midst of laughter. 

Lansel shook his head in disbelief and fingered his hair, backwards. Her laughter is somewhat infectious and angelic.

"Let's head to the Amethyst City" he stated.

" Where's that?" Niamh asked, furrowing her brows. He snapped his fingers and her sapphire blue dress turned amethyst purple making Neev gasp. 

"Why was that?" She asked. Lansel smirked and teleported with her to the Amethyst City - A magnificent purple city. Just like Sapphire City, just that Amethyst City is purple. 

"I am extremely mesmerized by the magnificent cities! They are so out of the world!" Niamh squealed. Lansel strider towards a purple flower tree nearly and plucked a branch. 

He strode back to Niamh and stood facing her. Snapping his fingers, the purple flower branch transformed into a flower crown and he placed it on Niamh's head. 

"I will transform the Dream Nation and the Calm Region as the Golden and Silver Cities, respectively. The four Cities of Precious Stones will stand and unite under the leadership of the Moon Realm" Lansel stated. Niamh's eyes were brimming with tears of excitement. 

All of a sudden, Lansel's calm expression and aura turned instantly. His sea green eyes turned a shade darker in a moment and his aura exhibits a killing and dangerous feeling. 

Huh? Why was the sudden change?
