章節 63: Fairy 54: Getting involved with National level troubles. (1/2)
Lucky for Hisui, it didn't took long for her, to explain the matters between the titles of royalty in general. It will be a lie, to say she wasn't surprised, to see Zack didn't know such matters. After all, this is common sense in this world. But who could expect, the fault didn't lie in Zack, the clueless boy from another world. But Makarov and the others in the guild, overlooked to inform this kind of common sense to Zack Smasher, who lacks a lot in common sense.
Listening to the little girl, that happened to be the child of Toma E. Fiore, the King of Fiore. Zack somewhat understood, Hisui she is an important figure to the Kingdom of Fiore, his homeland. But what he didn't understand why someone like her is, doing in such a place, with no protection, and also being chased down by a group of hooded wizards.
So, Zack asked her this. And the little matured girl, Hisui E. Fiore, explained her situation to the stranger, that saved her just now.
"You see… each year, days before my deceased mother. Like every year, my father, bring me along with him, to the grave of my mother, who died giving birth to me. Normally, royals are buried in the royal capital cemetery. However, out of my last mother's wishes. My father buried my mother in her homeland.
However… on our way to mother's hometown, as well her grave. A group of unknown wizards attacked us. Lucky enough, the knights and the wizards protecting us… but among the guards… lies a traitor. The traitor wasn't a guard, but a wizard, who used a flash spell to blind us… next thing I knew… I was captured and brought to some warehouse… somewhere in this town.
B-But… the moment I fled… I didn't know what to do… o-or how to get home… I run… and run… until…" Tears begin to fall from her cheeks, and onto the ground.
No matter how mature Hisui E. Fiore may seem on the outside. Doesn't change the fact, Hisui still a child, and right now as she cried her eyes out, she begins to act not like a child who seems like an adult. But a child of her age.
Zack looked at the child, that tried her hardest to hide her uneasy feelings of fear. Someone who is brought up, as a ruler, shouldn't show such emotions in front of others, and yet, like the child she is. She unable to avoid these outbursts of emotions she kept inside her.
Because of that, and her crying before him. Zack cannot stop his brotherly instincts from kicking in. And went onto his knees and hugged the frighten little girl.
Hisui felt the warmth behind the embrace holding her. Feeling warm, and safe, Hisui didn't held back any further, and begin to lean and cry her eyes out, letting go of her fears and other such uneasy feelings, since she was kidnapped, and forcedly brought to this town.
While the young man and young child hugged each other, as one cried their emotions out, and the other waited for the child to let go of her uneasy feelings. The third wheel, Nightfall cannot help to comment seeing this.
{By chance… did another little girl bite the dust?} For some reason, even if Zack has no clue what this perverted sword meant by that.
But he felt insulted for some unknown reason. However, with the still unstable Hisui within his arms. Zack let go the meaning behind the words, that made him felt somewhat insulted for some reason. And waited for Hisui E. Fiore to calm herself down.

"I am deeply sorry, for showing such an unsightly side of me… Sir Zack." Hisui went with blushing cheeks.
Only person Hisui, the princess and heir of the Kingdom of Fiore shown such a weak side to anyone. Is her father, the King of Fiore. Because of that, Hisui felt ashamed, and yet at ease, of showing such a side, to someone besides her father. Made her felt ashamed, for letting her true feelings out, but also at ease and calm, of letting go of those uneasy feelings of hers.
"Don't be, it's fine, Hisui… actually can I call you Vis? I think I like calling you like that. And how about dropping calling me mister or sir from my name. It feels weird to be called that." Zack went.
"Sir Zack… No, Zack. I be honoured, to be called that, by you… This is the first time, anyone given me a nickname, even if it is a fake name, I thought of on the spot. I am thankful, such a fake name, could give meaning to it… so, I am thankful Zack." Hisui went with bright smile on her face, which Zack also smiled, before out of habit, he stroked and patted Hisui's head.
Hisui was shocked, like the first time Zack did this. But that didn't mean the princess didn't like it. She felt shy, but at the same time, she likes this unique feeling of someone bushing her hair, besides her father. Strangely enough, it put her at ease, making her forget the troubles she has been having since her kidnapping.
Zack on the other hand. He stroked Hisui's long green hair and liked the silky smooth feeling from it. It is different to Vottes's or Meredy's own hair. As one expects from royalty, anyone could tell the way they treat their head, and wash it, is different compared to commoners or wizards.
Of course, Zack soon stopped feeling the silky hair, when he could feel the gaze's of Nightfall on him. it not the first time, Zack felt this kind of strange uncomfortable gaze from this perverted sword. The last time he felt such a uncomfortable gaze from this sword, when he was with Meredy in the forest.
Because of that uncomfortable gaze, made Zack remember about the little pink haired girl, around Hisui's age. And cannot help to wonder how she is doing, or if she is well. But moments later, Zack shakes his head of those unnecessary thoughts, and regain himself on the importance of the situation before the two.
"First thing first, it seems I have no choice, but to bring you Crocus, the capital city, right? I never been there myself. So, I am looking forward to seeing the capital myself. However, also have some bad news as well, Vis." Zack went with a serious look, which made Hisui nervous, upon seeing Zack looking that way.
"W-What is it… S- I mean Zack?" Hisui asked anxiously.
"You see Vis… I am lost, as well." Zack honestly went. In fact, both Zack and Vottes forgot to ask people of Foglia, where they are. They still have no clue, they are in the Bosco Kingdom, and Zack himself, still thinks that Foglia is part of the Fiore Kingdom himself… having no clue, he already left Fiore long ago.
When Hisui heard the honest answer, at first, Hisui looked at the guy before her, with a blank look, before she suddenly begin to giggle. Which did caught Zack off guard, when Hisui begin to give a girly laugh, like Vottes does. And looked at the little green haired girl weirdly.
"I see, I thought I am the only one that is lost. I feel better… knowing I am not the only one, Sir Zack." Hisui went with a smile.
"It's Zack, not Sir Zack, remember?" Zack went with a grin, which made Hisui blushed realising her mistake.
"S-Sorry!" Hisui went.
"It's fine, don't worry about it. Anyway, I don't know the way to Crocus, I am afraid. However, I am sure, I can protect you, until we somehow reach there. What you say, princess? Do you want to travel together with us?" Zack went with a gentle smile Hisui nodded her head, but then realised something what Zack just said.
"When you said together with us… does that mean, you are not alone Zack?" Hisui curiously asked. Wondering who else is with Zack. Properly his guild members? Or his friend? While Hisui thought this with curiosity, her eyes soon widen, seeing for some reason Zack turned his gaze from her, and look behind her, with a serious look.
"Yeah... I kinda of left her back in the inn. She probably be mad, when she realises, I am not there, when she sobers up when she wakes up… However, it seems we wasted too much time, then I thought. They are faster than I thought… Hisui, we need to leave, until I bring you somewhere safe, I will deal with them." Zack said with a serious voice, and called Hisui not by her nickname, but her real name.
