Chapter 56 – Pair of bad news!

Aile opened the door and saw two stunning people. Hazel and Sara were dressed in beautiful purple dresses highlighting their gorgeous purple eyes.

He involuntarily commented, "gorgeous" to the two's liking. They smiled back at Aile.

Hazel, on the other hand, had a more mature body and she was looking stunning. Aile had kept his eyes on her a few extra seconds, causing her to get a slight blush from it. Her reaction became a bit more intense after she heard his compliment.

In fact, Aile was not the only one surprised, Hazel had only seen Aile dressed in casual cheap fighting clothes. This was the first time she saw him dressed up in noble-like clothing, this had really surprised her. He looked very handsome. He also gave off a mature aura which he had developed due to his training and as a result of different experiences from his inherited memories.

Sara smiled and said, "You look so good in the clothes I bought for you! I should buy all of your clothes."

Aile smiled back at her with a nod and said, "Thank you, Sara, it is really great. You have found the perfect outfit for me! You should come with me next time I am buying clothes."

Sara nodded with a proud smile.

Sara quickly came and held his hand as they walked towards a high-end dining area that Hazel had booked for the meeting.

Hazel also wanted to return the compliment, but something was preventing her from doing so. In the end, she did not say anything.

They walked towards their location, as all the people had their eyes on them.

Soon they arrived a beautiful gated area with two young and vibrant female maids standing at the door to welcome them. What surprised Aile was the fact that both of them were 3rd level practitioners who were maids in this place. He knew from this fact alone that this establishment was heavily backed.

They were led on a beautiful path that was lit with nice and beautiful lighted torches.

On both sides of the path, was an array of beautiful flowers with attractive smells. This was a unique experience that mentally relaxed Aile. He became happier and more comfortable. It seemed that the floras and faunas had a specific purpose. They soon arrived at a moderately sized cottage. It was decorated with a variety of plants and the attractive shells and glasses from the sea.

It had a natural and luxury vibe, and the light bouncing off the different coloured glasses made it look very magical.

Quickly they arrived at the entrance, and they were greeted by an old man who was the chef. He started talking to Hazel about the details while Aile and Sara slipped into the main hall of the cottage.

They soon arrived at a massive open lounge, well decorated. At its centre was a classic fancy wooden table. The dark colour of the table in a well lit bright room made it the centre of attention.

The smell of delicacies could be sensed.

The fragrant smell with the refined interior of the cottage created a beautiful ambience.

After a quick look around Aile and Sara found two seats and sat next to each other.

Sara then asked, "Hey, was it true when you said that I could become the princess's sister."

Aile replied, "If two people like each other and talk a lot, over time they can become even closer than siblings. It will be a bit harder with the princess as it is hard to meet her often, but it is possible."

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

Sara giggled, "First, I will see if she is nice, then I will think about it, hehe."

Aile smiled back at her comment, it seemed that she understood that everyone can not be trusted. Aile was happy about this.

He always had thought that she trusted people too quickly. After meeting her half-brother, it seemed she had finally become more cautious.

Aile thought about it and reflected, "At least something positive came from meeting her half brother."

Well, the two talked more! Aile had gotten used to having her around and listening to her, it became kind of a habit to just talk to her and listen to her stories and figure out how she viewed the world.

Shortly after, the door of the cottage opened, and Hazel entered. Seeing the well-decorated hall, she too nodded. She then came and explained a few rules about how to talk with the royalty. What to do and what not to do?

Aile listened and from the very first rule which was to not; touch them, be rude to them, ignoring them and etc.

He had done all of this already. He chuckled it seemed that he managed to hit all the to-do-not list today, while he "met the princess".

Then she mentioned the table manners, which was basically, they could not touch the dish that the royalty took the most food off as it would be reserved by them. It was also encouraged not to take the other ones that they tasted off.

Aile found these rules a bit annoying and disturbing as he had to count how much each royal had taken from different foods. He sighed in the end, rules were rules, and at this point, he could not do anything about it.

Then she explained that as soon as the princess arrives, they had to bow to her two times. All of these rules further annoyed Aile. He looked at Sara and found out that she was not too happy about these rules either.

Hazel was going to speak more when the chef called her back. Aile sighed in relief that he does not have to listen to more rules, confining him. He started to regret coming here even more.

Sara looked at Aile and said in a dejected tone, "With so many rules, I will not be able to become very close to her."

Aile sighed, he had indeed given her high hopes for no reason, he should have been more forward-thinking. Aile smiled back and whispered to her, "I do not think she likes the rules very much either! You know what? You should invite her alone to show her the different halls, and while you are with her, you do not have to follow the rules."

Sara immediately beamed, Aile had once again solved her problems.

They continued talking when the maid arrived and quickly set up the cutlery. Then a little commotion started, the princess and her entourage had arrived. The door of the room opened, and Aile had a surprised expression.

The two people that he did not want to meet were actually here, and they were talking with each other.

The first person, the princess, she was wearing a beautiful blue dress that looked extravagant.

The dress was made from a combination of dark and light blue with a simple and elegant design. She had worn her hair behind her shoulder, which was black with a tint of red mixed into it. She had big curious eyes and a slight smile on her face that seemed very natural. She was stunning.

Aile had seen her for the first time. As before in the northern garden, she was wearing a veil. Now he was impressed by her otherworldly beauty. Aile had seen many beautiful people. He was in constant contact with them, from Sara and Hazel to Diana, Fiona Emily and Sophie. They all had a sense of cuteness, a mystery or a unique flavour that highlighted their attractiveness.

However, this princess had pure and natural beauty. Aile found her very captivating, but he did not want to attract her attention, so he quickly looked to the side. There he was the other person he did not want to meet again.

His eyes met a well-dressed chubby person with an oval body. He had short black hair with black eyes and looked around 14 years old. He was the tourist he met on the street that day, and he took him on a tour of the town while spreading rumours about the northern garden. Now he was casually talking to the princess.

Aile had a bad feeling about this.

Aile started to come up with many countermeasures in his mind, as soon as he saw them together. He cursed fate! Of all the people, how come the most lost tourist knows the princess. Does he also know that the princess almost got killed as a result of the rumours that he spread?

Does he remember him? Even if he does not know about the princess, is he going to cover for him. Now he will also know his identity, making him a much more potent potential danger.

Aile then realized that he was back on his blindfold speculation mindset and he calmed down. But his anxiety kept on rising.

They soon arrived in front of them, and Aile, Sara and Hazel, who had just appeared next to them bowed two times to the princess.

Then one of the maids from the princess's side exclaimed, "This is her highness the third princess, Alice Rex and his highness the fourth prince Yegon Rex."
