Chapter 17

He dragged his feet along the empty hallway with hands on his pockets. The facility is so silent he went upstairs in the balcony to feel the sea breeze.

The Genius demon just got worked up by a Lady. A fragile Princess with a very pretty face.

He ran his hand through his silk black hair. The man felt so awful tonight, he felt disgusted like he disobeyed God. Sure he did kill lots of people but seeing Letticia with dead eyes struck something inside his heart.

What he want is her.

He's absolutely sure about it but... Why?

Why did he kiss her?

What was she implementing when she said those words?

What are we?

Of course they are what they are.

Co-workers.

Nothing more.

He just vent out his frustration with that action that's why. Convincing himself he went back to his room to arrange more papers. That is a bit better than to think of her again and again.

It is enough Letticia tonight.

...

The Obelian Palace is chaotic these days. The knights and the maids are like manual saw, moving back and forth. One of theses maids is the head maid of the Palace, Lilian York who is busy for the departure of the Emperor and Princess.

"I wish I could join you.." Jeanette's face got clouded.

The moment she step foot at the Palace she could feel the gloomy atmosphere that the disappearance of the Princess Anhasletticia cause.

"Let's go find Anh Jettie."Princess Athanasia linked her arms with her cousin. Jeanette smiled and gave her Father a pleading look.

Anastacius just got here 3 days before.  He found something familiar with his investigation that surprisingly linked with Lucas' findings.

Aeternitas is still existing. They found a faint magic coming from Anhasletticia's room that even Lucas didn't notice. The thing is, it's just like that hidden wall they found.

"Whatever it is involved with the Princess' disappearance just got dangerous." Anastacius said leaning on the wall at the back of his younger brother.

"I need you to look for Obelia while I'm looking for my Daughter." Claude said giving his brother a glance.

"No, I have a score to settle with Aeternitas." he smirked. He clearly does not forget about what happened before. Aeternitas used him now he's up for revenge.

"Can I come then Father?" Jeanette asked playing with her brown locks.

"You can." he went over the two girls to pat his daughter's head.

The door of the room opened and Duke Alpheus came in. "Your majesty..."

"Go and look over some unfinished paper works of mine while I'm away." He stood up and walked towards the others.

"Your majesty..?" The group went out with Felix Robane behind giving the Duke a thumbs-up saying 'You can do it'.

"Duke Alpheus, we leave the rest of the paperworks with you." Felix voiced out then he shut the door close.
