Elia was waiting for Luna to get ready for her bath. Elia was thinking about Chris. He will be a great threat for Elia and her family. He is a nastier man. It will be a great help to not mess with him in the next interaction.
"Your highness, your bath is ready. Come here early, I'll wash your back."
Lina politely offers Elia to wash her back.
"Okay, I'm coming." Elia went there as an electric flow.
"Your highness, I didn't expect that you would come this early."
Lina was also shocked by Elia's response.
"Huh, how dare he touch! The Nasty man! Next time I'll kill him if he wants to touch me. Lina washed me properly. After that I need to see my Parents and the commander in charge."
Elia hatefully said to Lina about Chris.
"Okay….okay I get it." Lina nodded her head and started to wash Elia's back!
After freshening up, Elia went to the secret basement of the castle to see her parents and the commander in charge.
"Elia my child you came?" Queen Shuna asked Elia with concern.
"Yes, mom! How is your injury now?"
Elina replied to Queen Shuna and also asked her how her injury was.
"It's a deep cut, so it's not possible to recover the wound as early as we thought. And she needs proper rest."
Lina's mother Nera replied to Elia's question.
" I see. Please aunty take care of my mommy and papa.
Sir (commander in charge) Fedric, we should inform your family. And I will also have some talk with you. If you are able to move Will you accompany me to The Royal Library?"
Elia agreed with Nera and also requested the commander in charge.
"Yes, I'm able to move. Your highness, it will be my pleasure. As you command." Sir Fedric humbly replied to Elina.
" Dad, Mom I'll leave now. Please, trust me I'll make the right decision for the better good."
Elia wanted permission to leave them alone and also trusts her.
"We will have faith in you." King Lio and Queen Shuna nodded with her.
"May God bless you."
Queen Shuna prays for Elia. Elia and Sir Fedric went to the Royal Library.
In Elia's inheritance night at "The South Heart Forest,"
"Your excellency, you came! We're are safe now.
All the Knights screamed in joy as they saw a ray light in the dark.
The South Heart forest was under attack by the beasts. The Knights were fighting with their heart and soul. Some of the Knights are covered in blood. Some of them are injured.
"Your excellency, the forest was attacked by the beasts. And they're not ordinary beasts. Someone manipulated them. We're extremely sorry to interrupt you on such an important occasion. We know you needed time to be The new king . We tried our best that we could. But those beasts were revived no matter how much we cut them. So we retreated for now. After that we called you for helping us."
The knight commander Henri briefed the Archduke.
"Hugh, so they're magical beasts. It's more important to me than the inheritance of the new king. So, leave the matter to me. Rescue all the knights. Treat them well. My teammates are also joining soon."
Archduke sighs to hear the news. He ordered the commander to rescue all the knights and treat them.
After saying that Archduke turns on his magical device and tries to find the magical beasts. His teammates also reached the spot. After finding the magical beasts location Archduke and his teammates rushed to the forest.
It was pitch black night. The forest looks scary itself. Night owls howl.
"Booo!" Juri is a young woman with short brown hair and a mischievous grin who tries to scare Linda.
A young lady with dark brown medium long hair named Linda was nervous. Juri touched Linda, shoulders in both of her hands.
"Aaaa" Linda screamed in fear and ran like a deer. Archduke grabbed Linda's hand and pulled her near him.
"Linda, sigh, don't make a noise. Everybody keep silent!. I sensed them. They're nearby." The Archduke ordered everyone to stop. They carefully prepare for the attack.
Suddenly something has moved in the bush. Richard, a tall and powerful figure with a strong jawline and piercing blue eyes, dismounted his horse and approached the bush with his sword without delay. Everybody was waiting to see what's there. A roar came out after a while. Richard came out and said,
"It's indeed a magical beast." He got a blue stone after killing the beast.
"What's this? When Juri asked the question, her eyes were sparkling like bright stars.
"It's called "Orb" and it probably possessed magic. Someone who pulled the string, he may have possessed the beasts through it."
The Archduke explained to Juri and his other teammates.
"Wow! You know everything." Linda exclaimed in joy and praised The Archduke. She was standing in front of the Archduke and saw as she was going to eat him alive.
"Sigh, no matter how hard I tried, credit always goes to him." Richard said definitely. "That's not true! " Linda replied shyly.
"Let's call it a night today. Though the moon gives us his blessing and also we didn't know what type of the magical beasts they were! I was sure there were more of them. But somehow they vanished after we killed one of them."
Archduke forbade his teammates from hunting tonight. He was confused and didn't want to fight the enemies without knowing them.
"Yes, you're right! We need to observe them more in daylight." Richard agreed with Archduke.
"Let's head out of this sticky place." Linda hugged herself and said that the forest looks scary. After that they went out of the forest that night.
In the "Royal Library",
"Sir Fedric, I need to discuss something with you. Please sit here."
Elia sat him down in a chair.
" Yes your highness, but you don't have to do that for me."
Sir Fedric forbade Elia to do something that didn't suit her place.
"It's okay. I'm now a mere human in this castle."
Elia replied to Sir Fedric that now she had no power in her hand.
"What are you saying, your highness? Are you done? You already gave up?"
How can a mere human reclaim your throne? And are you okay with that?."
Sir Fedric was surprised with Elia's words. He was confused and panicked.
" Sir, calm down first. I didn't give up."
