Chapitre 14: chapter 14 : Slowly know his secret
'My lady?' Rachel inquires.
Rachel is perplexed by Crystelle's behavior.
"She's just been zoning out the whole time," Rachel laments.
'Sister, Elle? "Are you okay?" asks Atter, who is also concerned.
Crystelle flinches.
' eh? ah! 'Nothing?...' Crystelle smiled.
Sigh. "I simply... the prince... he doesn't come to see me today," she says. "I'm wondering if he's okay," Crystelle laments.
Atter tilted his head.
"When did you two get so close?" asks Atter.
Crystelle raised her eyebrow.
"He is my fiance, so what is strange about us being close?" Crystelle responds.
Atter makes a smiley face.
"Never mind, I simply asked," Atter responded.
"I'm sure he knows it's your last day at the palace." So don't be too concerned, sister Elle. "Maybe he's attempting to surprise you?" Atter smiled as he spoke.
Crystelle is taken aback. pfft, surprise? "That can't be!" exclaims Crystelle.
Atter shook his head. "Well, we don't know what is going on in his head."
"My, my lady!" said Sir Ferdy.
Crystelle turned to face him.
"Ferdy, why are you panting like that?" How about you just take a deep breath first? Crystelle stated.
Take a deep breath, Sir Ferdy.
"Please excuse my impoliteness, dear lady." But our captain has arrived at the palace today and wishes to meet you, my lady.
Crystelle hops up from her chair. "Your captain?" "Captain of the Paladin Knight?" Crystelle inquires.
'Yes, my lady. He just returned from the border this morning," replied Sir Ferdy, smiling.
"It's just been a week, and he's already returned from the border?" Crystelle asks as she rushes out to greet the captain of the Paladin Knight.
"B-brother!" yells Crystelle at the young man in front of the main gate of the palace.
Cassius turns to smile softly. ' Elly.. '
"It's only been a week, yet you've gotten more lovely than ever," Cassius stated as he bowed and kissed Crystelle's hand.
Every knight in their area was shocked.
"Is that our captain?" they exclaim in their heads.
Crystelle was embarrassed.
"Oh, Cass, brother! You arrived earlier than expected. 'Why?' Crystelle inquires.
Cassius softly grasped Crystelle's hand.
Why? "My lovely sister doesn't want to see me." Cassius was disappointed.
Crystelle flinches. "Look at this other magnificent creature!" Stop enticing me with your sweet words. "Not you too, brother!" Crystelle cries in her head.
The other knights have been turned into statues. It must be unusual to watch him behave in this manner. Cassius, please.
"Hey, brother Cass... shall we go and chat someplace else?" Crystelle asks hesitantly.
'Of course. everything for my lovely sister. Shall we?' Cassius replied as he gently held Crystelle's hand, and they began their walk together.
Crystelle makes an odd smile.
"This man is just outstanding!" He was only there for a week, and it was completed so quickly! How powerful can this person be? Is it because working at the border is so simple?
"Brother Cass is so great!" Crystelle said.
' Ohoh! If it's for you, dear Elly, it's always been that way. Cassius is proud of himself.
"Erm, brother Cass wanted to go where?" Crystelle inquires.
' Chamber? I was hoping to see your chamber in this palace. Is it to your liking? Cassius inquires.
Crystelle flinches. "My room in this palace?" "I'll be home tomorrow; why did you want to see it today?" Crystelle asks to confirm it.
"But it's my lovely Elly's chamber." If it's like that, should I get to know who you've been hanging out with at the palace all week? Consult Cassius.
Crystelle was lost in contemplation.
"Well, the third princess, the fourth prince, Rachel, Sir Ferdy, and... the first prince?" Crystelle murmurs.
Cassius was taken aback. "The first prince? How long has it been?
Crystelle puts her hand over her lips. "Oh no! My tongue has slipped! "Our family is unaware that I will get engaged to Rigel!"
"Hey, did you hear me say the first prince?" Without thinking, I uttered the fourth prince twice. "You misheard me, brother Cass," Crystelle murmured as she tried to modify her word. She clutched Cassius' hand.
"Should we go meet them, brother Cass?" Crystelle asks.
"Good day, Lady Soleil, and captain of the Paladin Knight." Honor a voice.
Cassius and Crystelle tilt their heads in unison.
Crystelle flinches in surprise.
"This gorgeous redhead boy!" "Why did you welcome me at this particular time?" Crystelle screamed in her mind.
Rigel bows and smiles.
"My name is Rigel Silas de Stella Ophelia, and I am the first prince of the Ophelia empire." pleased to make your acquaintance, Captain." Rigel introduces himself.
Cassius twitches. Is this the first prince? "He's not who the rumors say he is!"Cassius thought.
"Greetings, your highness." "I am Cassius Elrick la Soleil, captain of the Paladin Knight, at your service." Cassius introduced himself too.
"Very well," Rigel replied as he looked at Crystelle.
Crystelle makes an angry expression as she stares at Rigel in annoyance.
"If you dare to discuss anything with him, you're finished!" said Crystelle, telepathically with her gaze.
Rigel laughs.
"Have you heard anything about me yet, captain?" Rigel inquires.
Crystelle flinches. "This jerk!"
Cassius was rendered speechless. "Pardon me, your highness, I haven't heard about it yet," he said gently.
Crystelle is agitated, but Rigel continues to giggle.
"How old are you this year, captain?" Rigel inquires abruptly.
"I am 19 this year, your highness," Cassius responds honestly.
Rigel softly nods his head. "So you're nine years older than Lady Soleil, huh?" mumbles Rigel.
"Pardon me, your highness?" Cassius inquires.
'It's nothing. You became a captain at such a young age. You must be extremely competent, as the rumor has it. I've heard you are the holy sword master. "You are a great person." Rigel complimented Cassius with a bright smile on his face.
Crystelle is relieved.
Cassius makes a happy face. "Your highness, thank you for your compliments." I will do all in my power to help the Ophelia Empire. It is a great privilege to serve our empire. Cassius stated this while bowing graciously.
"It appears like you two are on your way somewhere." I hope to see you again in the future, captain. Rigel starts walking again after they both look at him.
"Hail to the star of the Ophelia empire," Cassius and Crystelle exclaimed as they bowed.
They resume their walk back. Crystelle turns her head and stares at Rigel, who moves away from them.
"Is that boy truly okay?" Crystelle wondered.
"Captain, captain!" "The emperor has requested your attendance at the conference chamber right now," remarked a knight standing in front of them.
Cassius locks his gaze on Crystelle.
Crystelle gives a soft grin. "It's all right, brother Cass." "You may meet them whenever you want with me," Crystelle added.
Cassius nods his head slowly. His expression is clearly disappointed.
I apologize, Elly. I'll make time for you the next time. Cassius sighed and turned to go towards the main palace.
Crystelle gives him a wave.
When Cassius moves away from her, she begins to pursue Rigel.
"I hope he's still close!" Crystelle wishes.
"Rigel?" asks Crystelle.
She looks for Rigel, but he is not to be found.
Crystelle notices something.
"Oh, that location!" Crystelle turns and begins to run in that direction.
"He must be here again," murmured Crystelle as she approached the location.
As she sees Rigel atop the tree, she breathes a sigh of relief.
"Why are you usually at this ancient building inside the restricted garden again?" Crystelle inquires as she approaches the tree that Rigel is climbing.
Rigel flinches. "What exactly are you doing here?" .. !! Please do not sit there! It's filthy! "Wait till I get there."
Crystelle halts her movement and waits for him.
Rigel descends and stands by Crystelle in no time.
Quickly, he took out his handkerchief and placed it beneath the tree.
"Sit," Rigel ordered.
Crystelle just follows without hesitation.
She takes a seat and invites Rigel to join her.
Rigel sat motionless, staring at his toes.
"What brought you here?" "How about your brother?" Rigel inquires.
Crystelle makes a big smile. "He has something to do with the Emperor," Crystelle responds.
They fell silent once again.
"This old building is my mother's personal library," Rigel announced abruptly.
Crystelle flinches. "Is it the late Empress Stella's?"
Rigel gives a nod.
"This ancient building, like me, was abandoned after my mother died. "I always come here with her whenever she has a break from imperial duties." Rigel smiled as he spoke.
Crystelle was taken aback. "He seems so pained with that grin...
