Capítulo 13: Task and Duty
"Your Highness, Prince Charles is here to see you," one of the maids came to Aurora when she was studying.
After coming to the Red Kingdom, Aurora had been spending her time in her room to study. Aside from the first day when she came out to be introduced to the two princes, she spent her time in her room.
This time, Prince Charles came personally.
"Les, dress me up," Aurora said with a faint sigh.
With such a honorable guest, it was impossible for Aurora to ignore the other party. The only way for her to keep her impression remained good was for her to come and greet the other party politely.
It didn't take long for the maids to finish and Aurora came out to see Prince Charles.
The young prince was sitting on the sofa with a bored expression. When he saw Aurora, his eyes lit up.
"Cousin Aurora, let's get out of the palace!" Prince Charles raised his hand excitedly. He hated studying and wanted to bring Aurora out of the palace. Anyway, if his cousin is here, he would have other reasons to skip his classes.
"Your Highness, I didn't come here to play around," Aurora said slowly.
"Tsk." Prince Charles clicked his tongue. "Then, at least accompany me. My brother is staying to practice and it's really boring."
"Where do you want to go, Your Highness?"
"I want to see my brother being beaten up, but if I laugh at him, he'll ask the teacher to target me afterwards, so you have to come with me." Prince Charles clapped his hands as if he had decided to do so.
Aurora: "…"
She could see that this should have happened often, so she silently followed Prince Charles to the training ground. There were many people there, watching as Prince Brian was fighting with another knight.
When the knights and other people around saw them, they quickly opened up a path.
Prince Charles is a royalty while Aurora was also a royalty by extension.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Watching Prince Brian fought, Aurora could see that the prince's movement was not that bad. There were women knights too in both kingdoms, but Aurora was not taught swordsmanship because there was no time for her to study.
Her time was already cramped with everything she had to study in the past few years.
Now that her study had already advanced, she was given another task and it was impossible for her to spare so much time.
'Should I start learning swordsmanship?'
Aurora could request to her father on the basis to fulfill her duty. It was likely that he would agree if it was beneficial.
But at the same time, he might not agree either.
Because it was obvious that there was no need for her to be good at everything, especially since female knight was not very widespread.
Clang! Bang!
Prince Brian was unable to hold his weapon well and slipped back, falling to the ground.
"Your Highness, you need to keep your stance firm." The knight on the opposite of Prince Brian looked at the prince helplessly. He was their martial instructor and had been in this position for some time.
The two princes didn't see to have good talent to become a knight. Their stances were a mess even though they were already growing up. This made him rather helpless and tired when he was teaching them.
"I know." Prince Brian frowned and sighed.
"Hahahaha!" From the side, Prince Charles was laughing out loud. He always felt that the time when his older brother was defeated in a spar was the best scene.
Prince Brian turned to look in the direction of his younger brother. He was about to lash out when he saw Aurora there and the words in his throat was swallowed back. Even though he wanted to reprimand his younger brother, he had to keep his image in front of Aurora.
It seemed that his half younger brother also knew his intention.
"Your Highness, it seems that today's training shall end here." The knight also saw Aurora who was following Prince Charles and bowed formally.
Aurora saw his gesture and nodded slightly. She knew very well that her presence has been made known and the people here would respect her to a certain degree. Yet at the same time, Aurora had no interest to purposely increase her reputation here.
Because she knew very well that it would be of little use.
As of now, she could only show herself as the obedient daughter of Princess Isabella who came here to follow her mother.
Only in this way would she be able to remove those prying gazes.
"Brother, how about if we take a walk with Cousin?" Prince Charles asked with a grin.
"Alright." Prince Brian nodded at the knights and then followed them.
Aurora glanced at the side and saw a figure staying behind the tree but she didn't step forward.
There was no need to make her difficult position even more difficult.
Her current task was to follow her mother and this time, it was to follow the two princes.
That was all.
