Chapter 6

[(Y/N) POV]

-The next morning-

A loud knock shook me from my sleep as my eyes widen as I see Collei try stand up but fall out of bed, landing on her butt and whining in slight pain.

"Wha- What time is it?" I said groggily. I turn towards the window and look to see it was still dark outside.

"I don't know, but it's about to get light soon." She replies.

I slowly roll my eyes before getting up out of bed and grabbing the lantern that was lying on the desk.

Collei groggily drags herself back to her bed and falls into a deep slumber immediately and I decided to just get ready for a tiring start to the morning.

I light the lantern up and take it with me to the bedroom door and walk towards it, opening it up with pure laziness in my eyes.

I see Kaveh who was pacing up and down with a box in his hands and he looks up to see me, his eyes having hope in them.

"Oh thank lord you're awake, I didn't want to be rude and barge inside so I made sure to wait but not wait for too long... Anyway here is your outfit on behalf my lord, we're leaving as soon as we've had breakfast. Meet us in the dining hall in 10 minutes." He says quickly before running out of the room and shutting the door behind him.

"Right... I should probably get dressed." I mutter as I close the door and walk back to the bedroom and straight into the bathroom as I heard Collei's light snores.

After freshing up and doing my daily necessities I grab the box that was on the counter and pull the outfit out to see a dress in the style of his majesty's signature weapon.

'It's so beautiful... I can't believe he's letting me wear this.' I thought to myself, admiring all the materials used to make this outfit.

I did whatever hairstyle I was feeling today, making sure it was just decent looking and stripped naked of my bed wear and put them away in the wash basin for the maids to take later.

I carefully put on the dress making sure that there is nothing that could rip it within the proximity I was changing it in, making sure that I don't ruin it.

However one thought just came to my mind so suddenly... 'How do they know my size?! Oh no, don't tell me they... Oh wait, we had to all do fitting during the entrance ceremony... Surely I have changed a little though? Whatever, it's still nice and fitting enough for me.'

I looked at myself in the mirror, looking satisfied with how the outfit looked, I then grabbed a strap for my thigh and grabbed a sma dagger, placing it in the strap. It was I had left it, in my small bed night stand. I then headed downstairs to eat.

"I'll walk you down." Cyno's voice rings out as I close the door firmly making sure it doesn't disturb Collei.

"Sure, let's go." I nod and begin walking down the stairs when we hear someone clearing their throat and turning round to see Lady Hina standing there with a serious expression.
