Just A Guinevere x Lesley Oneshot Collection (MLBB)

"Freedom" (GuinLey AU)

(Yes, another AU but this one is more closer towards the original lore but of course, it's a GuinLey Pairing washshwvhahahs)

Lesley's POV

"Have you gotten what I have asked you for?"

Spoken with that familiar stern voice from a figure that I always adore. I turned to face the master of the magic tower.

"Ah... Lady Gwen"

"I heard the creaking open of the main door echo across the whole space, I assumed you have returned from your errand"

I watched her as she walk down the spiral-like cobbled stairs that was arbitrarily placed at the very center of the tower.

What Lady Gwen had just stated roughly unfolds the current scene. I have indeed just returned from a task assigned by the lady herself.

"Oh, thank you for coming down to meet me but that is not necessary"

"What do you mean? Are you telling me I am not allowed to greet my servant on their arrival?"

"No... That's not it. I ask of you, to let me meet you on your work space instead..."

I bowed my head to the Lady Gwen who's feet is just 4 steps away from touching the ground floor, I heard the sound of her footsteps halt. With what she asked for held both on my hands, I took a quick sneak of a glance to her way.

'Oh no... She's frowning...'

Now that's not good, I did something again...

"... You..."

She glared at me with her ever-so-sharp eyes. Making me flinch subtly but not for the reason of fear. To other people, she would seem to be sending a threat. But to me... She looked somehow pained.

"Nevermind, bring it to my room"

"Yes"

To summarize our current relationship, Lady Gwen and I are that of a lady and an attendant. After Lady Gwen achieved her freedom from being a marriage pawn to her family, she decided to pursue her passion for her anti-gravity magic. Right now, she is residing at this magic tower provided by the imperial family as a reward for being able to contribute significantly to the offensive force of the frontlines. It was when a war broke out against the jungle monsters that was growing in worrisome numbers. But that was only half of the reason that gave her a leeway from the shackles that her family had put on her. The other half was that...

"Lesley"

"Oh- Yes, Lady Gwen?"

I was in the middle of moving items but I'm putting that aside to heed Lady Gwen's call.

"Return this book to the 3rd aisle from the left"

"Yes"

"Lesley"

"Get me seven sheets of papyrus from the floor below"

"Yes"

.

.

"Lesley"

"Yes?"

"Fetch me three small bottles of mana regeneration from the same floor you've gotten the papyrus"

"In a moment"

Ever since that interaction at the main entrance, Lady Gwen has given me about seven orders within just an hour. In which she hasn't done to me since that day we were still in the academy.
