she's gone now

"W-well I'm just trying to help.. Nothing much" Ijekiel blushed taking that as a compliment, he usually don't get awkward with compliments though, but coming from the greaaat magiciaan it feels different.

Lucas took a glance at ijekiel, "right anyways" He spoke,"I'm tire-"

Knock knock "young master?" A male voice called.

"come in."

A guard came in holding a letter. unlike usual, he looked nervous.
"The emperor requested a meeting" He handed the letter to ijekiel, "..his majesty is in the library..." He explains, it was obvious the guard suspects something.

Claude doesn't usually 'waste' his time like this, he'd only do it for Jennette.
"..please tell his majesty I'll be there." Ijekiel stood up. The guard nodded, then closed the door behind him.

Both Lucas and ijekiel looked around for a second, "welp, don't die my guy." Lucas swiped his long hair away. "Wow that's so motivational, of course I wouldn't die" Ijekiel responded sarcastically.

He left before Lucas said anything else, he wasn't really anxious about meeting the emperor though.
"Hey you're getting brave, aren't you?" Suddenly Lucas appears behind ijekiel, now has his hair tied up in a ponytail. "Though what can that blondie do anyway?" Lucas whispered, "if he does anything to you then goodbye obelia I guess." He chuckled.

Ijekiel looked to the window while going down the stairs, "lol simp" Ijekiel joked.

"Come on whitey, I'm more powerful then you thought!"
"Yeah I knoow mister magician sir"
"I'm this close to smacking you, whitey"

"Stop fooling around, his highness is here." Roger came from the from the turn stopping ijekiel by his shoulder, he turned and glared at Lucas now, "and you.." He snapped, "I demand you to leave. Now. "

Lucas tilted his head and shrugged his shoulder, he turned around and walked away, passing all the doors and windows until neither ijekiel and Roger didn't see him. Ijekiel started to walk again, avoiding eye contact with his father.

---------------
Not long after that ijekiel finally reached the library entrance, he slowly opened the door and set up a good posture just in case. "Your majesty."

The emperor raised his head, "alpheus," He started, "I'd never thought you'd show up in front of me since the day of that wench's execution."

Ijekiel grew irritated by that sentence, but he knows if he snap even just a bit it'll be over. "My apologies, your Highness." Ijekiel apologize, while sitting on the other end of the table, "if your majesty mind me asking, wha-"

"No more fooling around, alpheus. My daughter daughter here, requested the marriage to-"

"That's enough, father." Jennette appears from behind the bookshelf, which startled ijekiel a bit. "Ijekiel, i want our marriage to be moved next week!"

A/N: I'll have to cut this short again besties, the file was glitching lol

Anyways banner art thing was by me, I forgot to put in the text but as you can see, ijekiel is tired of life (not really but yes this is just an au)
