Chapter 22

Back in my room. I sighed, looking around. Then I realized what happened. I was talking with Seungkwan!? It couldn't be true at all! I couldn't talk with him! But when I opened the book I could see what exactly happened. Everything was real...

I quickly got off of the bed running out of the house. "Jisoo!?"

He turned to me and quickly made a big smile. "You're awake, good!" He came closer to me, still smiling like an absolute idiot.

I raised one eyebrow. "Something had happened?"

"Yeah!" He laughed. "You finally talked with him!"

"Eh, with whom?"

He sighed. "With Seungkwan, with whom else!?"

"I- Yeah, I had talked with him," I laughed uncertainly. Jisoo was different. I didn't even know what I was supposed to do now. "Eh, do you wanna go inside?"

"Sure," he said, following me into the house.

I was going to the kitchen to prepare some tea for both. Then I found some cookies. After a while, everything was ready, I put it on the tray and returned back to the living room where Jisoo waited for me. I put this tray on the table carefully and sat down on the couch. "Tell me, Jisoo, why are you happy that I was talking with him?"

"Isn't it obvious? It's your destiny."

I frowned. "Okay... But my destiny isn't talking to him, but my destiny is to save that kingdom from that cruel king, that's all."

Jisoo smiled.

"What?"

"Nothing."

I furrowed my eyebrows. "I don't trust you, Jisoo. Is that something you wanna tell me?"

"No, everything is fine, Sol," he answered with a grin, grabbing a cookie from a plate.

"You're back, Hansol."

I smiled with a nod. "Yeah, What can I do?"

"I'm not sure, you should wait for Seokmin," Soonyoung answered.

I nodded.

After a few minutes, Seokmin appeared here with a big smile. "What's going on?"

"Hansol asked me what is his daily task."

"I see. Okay, you can help us with horses." Seokmin laughed.

I smiled with a slight nod. And then I went to do what Seokmin said. Seokmin and Soonyoung also went to other horses.

After an hour, I was done with my works. Then I returned to Seokmin and Soonyoung. I found them sitting on the ground and laughing.

"I'm done, guys."

Both looked up with nods.

"Great, do you wanna join us, Sol?" Seokmin asked.

I nodded, sitting down on the ground. Everything has seemed fine today. Danger was nowhere to be seen. I was wondering where is prince now. I haven't seen him today yet. He missed me a lot. I wanted to see him again. I wanted to talk with him so much.

Minghao appeared suddenly. "You should practice more with your magic wand if you wanna save the kingdom," he said a bit strictly, crossing his arms.

I sighed and got up. "I know, Minghao."

He nodded. "Fine, so let's go."

Another work... I thought, grabbing into my hands the wand and waiting for Minghao. Then we started practicing attacks on each other. I also practiced my defensive spells. After an hour, I sat down on the ground heavily with a deep sigh. I was exhausted.

Minghao looked at me and smiled. "You're better than before."

I smiled tiredly. "Thank you."
