Chapter 40 ☆ Green

《Sachiel》

We were in the castle, infront of King Jared's room with Garry.

I knocked and opened the door. The King was writing something on the paper when he noticed me. He put down the quill and stood, "Williams."

He wasn't expecting us that day since we told him we'll be in Aireo for a week. Me and Angelus went in. "Where's Sierra?" He asked just when the door opened again and Sierra came in with Garry, "He's becoming weak. We don't know why." Sierra said.

"Since he woke up, he didn't feel nor look strong anymore. He started coughing. His voice didn't sound normal. He couldn't stand by his own. I tried healing charms but it didn't work, neither did the healing candies, yeah, none of it worked. None of it even atleast healed the wound. King, I think Eryn has to do with this," I said, facing the king.

"Sachiel, we can't say tha--" Sierra was cut off when the king spoke.

"Eryn? Eryn Vesta?" The king looked confused but despite his questions, he humbly approached Sierra and Garry, "Come, let's get him on the couch." he said as he guided the two of them towards a long couch and let Garry lie on it. "C-cold..." Garry stuttered, shaking. Angelus gave him a scarf and Sierra put some blankets on top of Garry. "Goodness, he could barely open his eyes! What has happened?" The king worriedly said, then he cupped Sierra's face, "Are you okay?"

"Yes, father, Don't worry."

"King," Angelus bowed, "He was from Aireo. He's Garry. King, there's something you need to know about Eryn." He breathed out, "Earlier, Garry said, a girl, specifically Eryn, threatened his life."

"Eryn is never an enemy. He might have just mixed up his mind. Maybe because of his condition. Maybe it was just another girl." The king said.

"Father, Eryn was acting strange these past few weeks. Something's not right about her."

"I agree, king." Angelus agreed.

"You might be right but... You can't blame a student for other's misery. We don't have proof. One witness is not strong." He went back to his tables and arranged the papers on it.

"But we found this in her bag." I said, showing the box.

"You're getting other's things without their permission? That counts as stealing!" He stopped for a while and continued arranging. "This is against the rules, so you might go to the deten--"

"But it's not like that." I said as I immediately opened the box. "Look, King, how do you think she got these?"

The king stopped and looked at the box, "Williams... Where--"

"We don't know either, king. But where could've she gotten those?" I said.

The door opened and Custodis entered, "King, we couldn't find it."

"Find what?" Sierra asked.

Custodis looked at Sierra, "W-well... the--" He stopped as his attention was caught by the box I was holding.

"The green rocks were stolen..."  he continued. "W-where did you get those?"

Sierra breathe deeply as she said, "Let's sit and talk about this, shall we?"

"I'm asking you again, where?" asked Custodis, his look was strong.

I let out a sigh and replied, "We got this from... Ahm," I hesitated to answer though. He might not like it.

"They found those from your daughter's bag." King said.
