Chapter 14: A Mere Letter

[ P R E S E N T T I M E . . . ]
( (Name)'s POV )

For the last two days of resting in the small precinct I was soon met with a messenger who had a letter sent to me in his grasp.

As soon as I took it, he abruptly left.

Arthur and Alfred curiously looked over my shoulder as o read the note silently to myself.

It was a warning from Yukina.

"Who is this 'Yukina'? Is it an old friend of yours?" Arthur asked, blinking in curiosity.

"It doesn't matter now. We have to be careful. Luciano is now on our tails." Alfred informed us as he quickly strode passed and proceeded to pack up. "Fortunately Yukina warned us about this spell that we're all in."

I looked at him with a stern look. "It's just weird though. How did Oliver manage to cast a spell on me without me noticing?"

Arthur shrugged as he got the horses ready.
"I'm...I wasn't aware that this power was upon us. I should've known from the start, but apparently I'm not effected."

"Maybe it's because (Name) is the only one with the spell on her," Alfred replied with a snap of his fingers. "But never mind that, let's just move as fast as possible before Luciano finds her."

"Noted." Arthur nodded before he brought me to my horse. "Far from here is another village. By then we could buy some food and water and then set off. I've heard that the kingdom we are to go to is over seas, so we may have to ask a boatman to help us travel abroad."

"How will we be able to do so?" I spoke up. The cloak was draped over me, concealing most of my face and body. "Wouldn't the boatmen ask to clarify pur identities? What if they find out that I'm a princess? Or what if--"

"Calm down, (Name)," Arthur sighed. "I'll simply use a spell that will change your looks. It's that simple. And besides, I assure you that these boatmen shalln't question you any further from your name and what you look like."

"And if they do, I'll handle it." Alfred spoke up with a reassuring smile. "Because, I'm your Knight and fellow gaurd. A heroic man who is ready to save his mistress anyday--"

"Alright alright, no need to irritate me with your preposterous fantasies."

"It isn't fantasies though!"

"In your precious little dreams, they aren't."

(Name) rolled her eyes, attempting to stiffle a giggle before she grasped onto the strap of her horse's leash. "Okay you two, let's just go."

Both Alfred and Arthur smiled, pleased to make (Name) calm and happy again.

But what Arthur wondered was...

Will that last?

(A/N: This is breaking news - today we will endure a tint of forecasting and a whole week of suspense.)
