Chapter 22

"What are you doing here?!"

Hera, after opening the door of her room, immediately shut it after Ares suddenly went inside.

Ares huffed, letting himself fall on his sister's bed who threw him a dagger which he caught with his two fingers.

"Not a great way to greet an injured, ugly little thing." He smirked, tucking his arm behind his head.

"You're not injured! Well, not anymore..." Hera fumed. "I healed you!"

"See how mean your sister is, Loki?" Ares looked at Loki who only smiled at him, drinking on his cucumber juice that was made by Hera's nanny, Venice, the youngest out of all the Imperial Siblings' nannies.

"Don't drag my cute but not so bloody little brother here!" Hera hugged Loki who managed to put his glass down bago matapon ang iniinom.

Hera may be really aggressive sometimes. Well, not sometimes... Most of the time. Nasanay na lamang ang mga kapatid niya sa kaniya.

Ares nonchalantly waved his hand. "Yeah, sure... Whatever you say, 'lil sis."

"You're annoying, Kuya." Hera puffed her cheeks, looking away. "You're not invited here."

"And?" He closed his eyes, sighing quietly in tiredness.

"And?!" Hera shouted but soon shut up when someone knocked on the door. "Who's there?"

"Your Imperial Highness, this is Venice."

"Venice, who?"

Venice, who's on the other side of the door, felt herself sweating. "Your Highness..." She felt nervous.

Is the princess angry at her? That she chose to forget her? What did she do to anger the only princess?

She started panicking, soon enough. Anxiety filling her mind.

"I'm just kidding." Hera opened the door, smiling widely, eyes cannot be seen already. "What is it?"

Venice let out a sigh, soon stepping to the side. Behind her earlier is Hades, with his nanny behind him, Callirhoe.

"Kuya!" Hera cheered as he hugged her brother who managed to disarm her before she could even point her dagger to his side. "You're here! I thought you wouldn't come!"

"Sorry. I discussed some important matters with Mother so I arrived late." He motioned to Callirhoe who greeted the Imperial Princess. "As an apology, please accept this simple gift I prepared."

Callirhoe opened the red box she's been holding since earlier.

It's a necklace with a light orange gem as a design!

"Sorry if it's cheap. I just got it from the town I went to months ago."

Loki, who heard what Hades said, froze in disbelief. He soon sighed.

Madalas sa mga sinasabing cheap ni Hades ay nabibili gamit ang 30 to 60 na ginto, the coin with the highest value in this world. One gold coin is equivalent to one thousand in his former world. One silver coin is equivalent to one hundred. One bronze coin is equivalent to fifty and one copper is equivalent to twenty, the lowest coin in this empire.

"Hmm... How much?" Hera looked at it, brows arched.

"64 gold coins." Hades answered.

"Hmm... It's alright! It's pretty naman." Hera pointed at it so Hades carefully lifted it from the box.

Hera turned around so Hades was able to wear it around Hera's neck. "It's so pretty! As expected of Kuya's taste."

"Am I late?"
