Eric looked at the door and saw a gorgeous looking young lady! Her red hair down to her waist and her emerald green eyes making one peaceful when looking at them! she had neck accessory and two green Earrings! adding to her almost perfect face. She had white skin and her smile immediately put all the lights in the room out!

" We meet again my beautiful lady!"

" yes! I" She was gonna say, I thought about but she then stopped and blushed! she changed the subject by asking:

" Why are you wearing a mask?"

Anthony was surprised, he knew the identity of aurora! and since she knew who this man was and from the way they talked was almost as equals! Now, in his mind, Eric was almost royalty! He immediately took his leave.

" My face is only meant for you to see!" Eric sai with a straight bullshit face!

"what are you saying!" Aurora blushed! and then added with an expectant face : " would you come with me to the holy garden?"

" It would be my pleasure to walk with you!"

"hehe! then let's go!"

Eric stood up and walked by her side. First there was a bit of silence! Along the way she would glance at him and with Eric's vision he would turn and look at her instantly!This caused her to lower her head!

If anyone from the Capital saw this they would immediately commit suicide, maybe the eunuch could even grow his d*** back!

After they reached the garden she sat on the beautiful green grass! Eric did not sit beside her but in front of her.

" Why would you sit there?"

" so that i won't miss the chance to look at your eyes!"

she blushed and asked:

" who are you?"

" who do you think I am?"

" You said you are not from around here? do you mean the city ? the kingdom?"

" emm... NO! I am from somewhere very far away from here!" Eric thought about earth and said.

"Do you remember my name?"

" eeeeeeh!" Eric was now stumped for words

" hmph! it's Aurora!" Aurora snorted, she finally gained some upperhand in this conversation!

"since our last meeting, I have given you many names but this one fits you rather well, classy and elegant!"

" what names?"

" Angel, Goddess, Hope, Future wife! ..." That future wife was one eric whispered

" Stop right there! "

"what?" asked Eric puzzled

" what was the last one?"

"Hope?"

"the one after that!"

Eric started observing the garden then said:

" a rather lovely garden you have here!"

" don't change the subject!" yelled aurora!

" those herbs look amazing!"

" I said say!" she grabbed his collar! Eric looked at her surprised . She was really agitated by his shameless behavior!

She immediatly took back her hands and asked:

" This garden is beautiful right?"

"yes it is!"

" The herbs are great ?"

"yes they are!"

" you sold those beast eggs didn't you?"

"yes!"

" Are you strong?"

"yes"

" Do you like me?"

"yes! eeeh! wait what no!?" Eric then woke up and an a wierd expression on his face appeared! He indeed liked Aurora a bit, but he knew that since then that her status was not simple! He wanted to wait until he made a name for himself as he was still quite young! Then if they met again he would ask her out!

Aurora had a smile on her face when she heard yes! but when the "no" came in her face changed! She never thought he would reject her!

She asked once again:

" Do you like me?"

Eric looked at her deeply! and then took off his mask and said with a smile! but his voice had a serious tone this time and aurora felt that!

" Yes I do! it was indeed a chance meeting! I thought about you quite a few times! But I can tell you right now! I am strong yet not strong enough! I had hoped that when I made a name for myself and met you again, I would defenitely ask you te be my companion! Since I knew your status was not simple! We don't know much about each other but I am indeed attracted to you! But I am afraid you would be disappointed if you knew who I a really am!"

Aurora smiled and she dazzled him this time, she said in a gentle tone:

"You indeed left an impression at that time and i also thought about you a few times! You may not be strong now, but you will be in the future! You may not have status now! but you will in the future! The past is gone! The future is still far away! we only have the present now! and that's all that matters ! As for me, I don't care about status! I only care about the heart! we may not know each other but we can get to do so ? So what do you say? want to give us a chance? who knows we may be compatible more than we think!"

"hahaha! well said! since you said so! so it shall be! I shall give myself a base introduction then! I am called Eric , a 3 star archer with the prowess of a 6 star! this shall be enough for now!"

Aurora was surprised, a 3 star archer that can win a 6 star! he was a genius indeed!

"I am Aurora Lanstar The third princess of the Azure throne kingdom! descendent of the current king William Lanstar!"

"Hahaha , I tought as much!" Eric was not surprised , he had guessed that she was royalty! he had seen the aura nobles had! hers was a tad higher.

" yeah , since we decided to give ourselves a chance! you have to keep this a secret until you have enough strength to at least run for your life!"

" Yeah no worries , now explain to me the strength of the capital so that i Know what I am up against" he asked as he now sat beside her!

She knew that they would get together in the future, but she still prefered things to progress slowly but she indeed liked Eric! So she explained the forces, influences, Restricted areas, Nobles, customs, rules almost everything!

This took time. Each time he woke up in the morgning he would suffer from Aria's meal then come hang out with Aurora. And this was not nothing, he was gathering information but most importantly having fun and getting closer to Aurora! After the explanation ended, he looked for a pure emerald rather big that it was worth 50 amethyst! And Sculped" Aurora" and made a bracelet out of it! The "Aurora" he wrote was in english! the characters here and language were entirely different.

She really liked it and asked him what it meant so he said that this was the language where he came from and that was her name which made her like it even more!

Days passed and they hang out and strolled by the garden many times so she noticed something and asked him why he always came with a bitter expression. She could sense he liked being with her so him being forced to come here was not it! He replied by saying: "food"

She thought how could this guy who now had tens of thousands of Amethyst coins eat bad food so she pressed for an answer as now they were rather used to each other! Her Fiery personality kicked in a couple of times and Eric quite liked it! He also tought about playing some small yet rational pranks on her! So when she knew that some girl , a subordinate, all he could say was preparing food for him! She did not like that so she told him not to eat it anymore and refuse the girl while going for his ears! He nodded but he could not do so to Aria! He knew she was traumatized before so treated her rather nicely! As such he still suffered!

As for Aurora, she decided to learn how to cook! she did not want him to see her as a princess but as his companion so now Eric suffers twice the amount with a smile on his face!
