~Ambrosine's POV~

"Ugh! Why do I have to teach a weak little girl?" My new appointed tutor who was gonna teach me swordsmanship, groaned, "Isn't that why you are supposed to be teaching me?" I ask, trying to be as innocent as possible, "You don't understand it do you? Girls are supposed to stay at home and take care of children, not learn how to fight!" He said, glaring at me.

"I don't care, you are supposed to teach me regardless my gender, right?" I asked, trying to hold on to my patience.

*SMACK*

"Don't talk back to me, brat," he sneered, 'Did this bitch just slap me? Only if I was in my past body right now but still, I could kick him and then run and tell this to Felix or someone like that,' I thought while getting up and dusting myself off, "Big mistake," I chuckle darkly with my bangs covering my eyes, I ran full speed at him and kicked him in the shin making him bend down and I took that opportunity to kick him him in the balls causing him to fall to the ground, after kicking his face, I ran while fake crying, 'My cheek is probably bruised, and that just makes my story more believable' I think while running towards the living room, where Felix said he would be if I needed something.

I saw him with Lily and Athy who was on the ground in front of Felix, yelling about not wanting to see someone while Lily had tears in her eyes. Athy was about to storm off but before she could do that, I ran and hugged Felix and started crying, "Princess/Amy what's wrong?" All three of them ask at the same time, I looked up and pointed at my bruised cheek, "The new teacher is mean and he hurt me" I wailed, a stream of fake tears flowing down my face.

All of them widen their eyes more and Felix immediately picks me up and tells Lily to stay with Athy before walking towards the entrance of the ruby palace, glaring at empty air, 'Is he gonna kill someone? His glare is as scary as Claude,' I thought, still crying.

In five minutes, we were out of the ruby palace, inside the main palace and standing in front of Claude's study room, 'SHIT! Is he gonna inform Claude? I don't want him seeing me like this,' I think before patting Felix's cheek, he looks down at me, his glare replaced with a pitiful stare, "I wanna go to Lily" I sniffled, "We will soon go back to Lily, Princess but first, we need to inform His Majesty about this unacceptable behavior that man has showed towards you," he said, his death glare returning while he knocked on the door to the study, 'But why do I have to be here?' I thought.

We heard a short 'come in' and Felix opened the door harshly, surprising me. Claude looked up at us from all the paperwork on his desk and his eyes widened slightly when he saw the expression on Felix's face before going back to normal, "What's the matter Felix?" He asked calmly, "Princess Ambrosine's new tutor has shown unacceptable behavior towards Her Highness!" Felix was almost yelling, "Calm down Felix, tell me what happened," Claude's tone remained unchanged as Felix looked at me and motioned for me to explain, "That man was being mean to me and when I said I didn't care, he slapped me" I explained, cutting out the part about me beating his ass.

Claude furrowed his eyebrows and said that he would look into it before dismissing us. 'I thought he would straight out kill the both of us for disturbing him because of such a trivial matter' I thought while looking at Felix who was calmer than before but still had his brows furrowed.

When we came back to the ruby palace, Lily immediately took me in her arms and applied an icy wet towel on my bruise to reduce the swelling while asking me questions about what happened and if I was okay and I just answered her questions by nodding.

That night, I told Athy everything and she was gaping at me with stars in her eyes when I told her about how I beat the shit out of the tutor and in return she told me why she was yelling at Felix.

~~~~~~~

The next day, Athy, Lily and Felix were pale while I was perfectly fine except for the bandages on my cheek that were covering my bruise, turns out that this bruise will take a long time to heal as it was becoming worse and worse as time went on.

Apparently, Lily was telling Athy about Diana while she pretended to sleep and I, on the other hand, was smiling in my sleep even though I don't remember what I dreamed about.

And now, the three of them were feeling pretty awkward in front of each other after what happened yesterday. Felix decided to break the silence even though he was hesitant, "We should be heading out now" he said, reminding us that we had to meet Claude, I guess Athy wanted to stop being awkward so she tugged on Felix's cape and told him to give her a piggy back ride while I wanted to sit on his shoulder and Felix agreed, so now Athy was on his back while I was sitting on his right shoulder, his right hand holding my legs and his left hand supporting Athy's weight so that we wouldn't fall off.

"Well then, please return safely," Lily bid us goodbye, "Bye bye Lily" Athy and I say in sync, "We'll see you later" Felix said, 'Why do I feel like I'm seeing two newlyweds bidding each other goodbye' I sweatdrop. "We'll be heading to the audience chamber today," Felix told us, I just simply nodded while playing with his hair, 'His hair is so soft, I love it' I started ruffling his hair a little, making him giggle. "Do you like my hair Your Highness?" He asks, "It's soft, I love it" I answer, still not letting go of his hair, "I'm glad" he said.

"I'm afraid you two might have to wait a little," Felix said when we were in front of the doors leading to the audience chamber and we had to wait because Claude has a guest, 'Well, the longer I get to play with Felix's hair, the better' I grin.

Suddenly, the door creaked open and revealed a middle-aged white-haired man with golden eyes and wrinkles, 'Isn't that Roger Alpheus? He looks like an old fart,' I thought while stifling a laugh. "Sir Felix," Roger spoke up, "Sir Roger, it's been a while," Felix greeted him, "I was curious since I didn't see you in the audience hall, it's funny seeing you here," the fart spoke again before finally noticing Athy and I, "My, pardon my manners, I didn't notice," he said, "Roger Alpheus, at your service. Prosperity be upon the Obelian Empire," He bowed.

'That look in his eyes, he couldn't possibly comparing Jennette with us right?' I think before looking at Athy who seemed to be thinking the same thing. "Hello, Mister White" Athy smiled at the fart, "She wouldn't happen to be talking about me, would she?" Roger asked Felix who was dumbstruck, "You look like a white doggy," Athy exclaimed, "Athy, he's not a doggy," I corrected her, "But he looks like one," Athy looked up at me, "No, doggies are supposed to be cute and not look like an old fart with wrinkles," I told her. Felix feigned a cough but I knew that he was suppressing his laughter, "Can old farts eat sweets?" Athy asked innocently even though I know that she is trying her hardest not to laugh right now, "I don't think old farts like sweets, I think they like wine and cigars more," I told Athy before turning back to the fart, "Right?" I asked with a closed eye smile and Roger just nodded his head.

"The Princesses truly are adorable," he awkwardly complemented us, 'Should we stop teasing him?' I ask Athy through mind link, 'Yeah we should,' she answers, "I want to see Papa," I tell Felix, who clears his throat and starts walking towards the door, "Bye, Mister Fart" Athy and I wave at him and I think he said something but I was too busy thinking about meaningless things to even care.
