Shortly after the introduction ended in the throne room, they went to the dining room to eat. There, the two king together with Ileana was sharing stories and laughing together. It was a merry night if not for the awkward atmosphere lingering around the two individual. They are Prince Lyle, and Princess Feme. They just quietly eat and glance at each other, especially princess Feme who keeps glancing at Lyle every now and then.
Seeing this, the three adults sigh. King Al knows that Lyle doesn’t want to talk about marriage and such and wants to cancel the agreement; this was what queen Ileana told him and he understand it, because they were still kids. But he was unwilling to do so because upon hearing Lyle’s deed and seeing him with he’s own eyes, he was beginning to like him. He tried to come up with a plan for them to be alone. He shared it to King Augustus and Queen Ileana
Thus
The two end up in the balcony alone.
Outside the balcony, you could see the courtyard and the beautiful garden which filled with beautiful flowers and hedges. Beyond that was a vast plain full of trees and wild plants. There were also forests far to the left and right and a silhouette of a mountain was over in the distance. But the most eye catching and most beautiful scene was the orange colored sky that covered the world caused by the setting sun. It was so romantic and mesmerizing that you might think it was a beautiful and priceless painting painted by a professional painter in love.
“It is beautiful!” said by a voice beside Lyle. Naturally, it was the beautiful beastman princess Feme.
She turned around and faces Lyle.
“It’s very beautiful, isn’t it?” she said again.
“Ah! It’s very beautiful!” Lyle answered but he wasn’t talking about the scenery but something else.
Noticing that Lyle was not looking at the beautiful scenery like she does and the fact that he was using a strange look to stare at her face, princess Feme tilted her head as she returned the gaze.
“Is something the matter? Or is there something on my face?”
“No, I just felt that you really fit the description that I’ve heard of you. A very beautiful and gorgeous girl……No, a bishoujo. So I just thought that I would just admire you as a way to soothe my eyes and cleanse my soul.”
Lyle’s reply sounded really serious. Hearing that sudden confession that came so unexpectedly, princess Feme couldn't help but blush on her cheeks up to her fox ears. And for additional information, the number of praises and confessions regarding her beauty had been as many as the stars in the skies, but only Lyle’s words seemed to be imprinted on her mind and it hovered at her ears to an unnatural extent.
She quickly avoided his gaze and return back in watching the beautiful scenery
“I-I’m not T-talking a-about t-that! I meant t-the s-scenery! T-the s-scenery is v-very b-beautiful, right?” although stuttering she did her best to change the subject but
“hm? Yeah! The scenery was very beautiful but when the orange-colored sky was reflected in your beautiful face it seems it gave you another beauty that is hard to describe.
Although it is known that women tend to have a whole new allure when they stand under the setting sun, but for you, princess Feme, it seems to be a dramatic change.”
Princess Feme, whose face was beet red, was now as red as a ripe tomato ready for harvesting,
“P-please stop t-that! I-it’s not t-true! a-and e-even if you say that, I h-heard that y-you wanted to c-cancel the m-marriage”
“Oh you heard about that! Well, it’s not really that I dislike it more like I’m absolutely overjoyed knowing that such a beautiful princess like yourself is my fiancée. I mean who wouldn’t” smiling he said it while facing the setting sun.
“But, for now I don’t want to concern myself for those things like marriage and love! And most of all, look we are still children you know. I want to do the things I want to do, no constraint and full of freedom. And if the time comes when I’m ready to love and if also when that time you choose to love me; no promises no agreements, just you, yourself that fell in love with me then in that time I will surely come to you and ask you for your hand, if you want I will give you this world as a present to you!”
Although the last part was said jokingly, all the words that came out from Lyle’s mouth sounds so sincere. Princess Feme was looking towards Lyle with a surprised expression. Her usual shy demeanor vanished as she was showing a rare, gentle smile to him. Seeing this Lyle couldn’t understand why she is happy.
Stolen story; please report.
Unbeknownst to them, there are several people watching them. They are hiding as to not disturb them and just quietly watching them. One of this is Sasha who couldn’t help but be worried in leaving Lyle and the princess alone.
She was quietly grinding her teeth looking at the two in the distance while doing a one-man show
“hmph! What beautiful?, I’m more beautiful compared to that flirtatious princess! Acting so shy and defenseless, grrrrrrr!!!”
“Hey! A lady shouldn’t peep!”
“Shut up! I won’t do this if that flirtatious princess would just go home immediately!”
“hahaha you deserve that, you flirt princess take that! As if my prince would marry you hahaha you should wait for eternity! Hahaha”
These words weren’t heard by anyone, and that ominous and crazy laughter was dissipating into the air quietly.
On the other group who was watching the two was composed of the Dragon king Augustus, Dragon Queen Ileana and the Beastman king Al. although before they just want to watched the situation unfold silently, but now they couldn’t help themselves but be surprised and just watched dumbfounded.
Especially King Al who heard Lyle’s words clearly was staring at him with slack jaw
“Is he really just five years old? Is that how a kid supposedly thinks?”
From King Al’s sudden questions while staring towards Lyle with disbelief, King Augustus and Queen Ileana just answered him with a wry smile and continued to watch at their son’s surprising actions while steeling their selves and promise to stop being surprised by their son’s actions, however, it was a vow that might never be fulfilled.
Meanwhile, Lyle was looking at Feme’s face while asking
“So, do you agree?”
Princess Feme, somewhat happy gently nod while wearing a very beautiful smile. Seeing this Lyle smiled and said
“Great! Then let me show you something amazing!”
After saying that, Lyle raises his right hand to the skies and gathered a huge mana in his hand then compresses it. The image he had in his mind was a blue dragon with snake-like appearance and is compose of mostly water.
“Haaaaaaaaaaa!!!
The surrounding turned dark immediately, and at that moment, a dragon made of water appeared from the dark cloud just like in his chant. Its color was as blue as the ocean and its appearance was reminiscent of a snake just like an oriental dragon.
But that’s not all, he raise his left hand and just like what he did while ago, he gathered a huge mana in it and compresses it, and just the same as the previous but this time, it was colored red and flames are bursting out of its body.
“
In the next moment, a red sphere with one meter in diameter appeared above their heads. But it doesn’t end there, the red sphere suddenly changed its shape and became like the water dragon.
That night, two enormous Dragon with snake-like body emerge from the skies which stunned the whole kingdom. All the people watch as the two dragons coiled themselves towards each other while dancing in the sky letting water and fire in their mouths. That amazing spectacle was known as the
That moment is the birth of the
“*huff* did you *huff* enjoy it? *huff*”
The now powerless Lyle panted and was gasping for breath, but still smiled with his entire face while he asks the princess beside him who was just now was very surprised and was speechless while staring at the sky. Her eyes widen as if bulging out of their socket and were stiff as stone.
But not just her, all the people who witness that impossible scene, was staring dumbfounded at Lyle. They couldn’t believe what they just have witness. The two kings and the queen was shedding cold sweat while their jaws are dropping in the floor. They couldn’t move nor blink. “What the hell was that? Just what the heck is he? Are you bloody kidding me? Is that really a five year old kid? Hey! Just what the hell is he?”
The first to break their silence was King Al. He couldn’t believe what he just witness that he has many questions burning in his mind. But much to his dismay, no one answered him, No, no one couldn’t answer him. They just stare disbelievingly at the boy who was breathing heavily while holding the railings of the balcony.
