If only she could hear those words, one, last, time.
Yes, Your Highness
Then, she heard words that could be the only ones to mend her.
"Yes, Your Highness. It can be true." It hit her like a sword to armor. Unexpected. She felt a rush of emotions, when she realized who spoke those words. She turned around to see, the only person she wanted to kill more than Ayano Aishi. The only person who could kill Ayano Aishi. The only Person with Magical Prowess that could outmatch the Wizard Kaga Kusha. The Witch who went by the name, Oka Ruto.
"W-What did you DO with her? H-How did-d you know?"
"Simple, Your Highness. I am the one sage who knows everything about everyone. The one Magic User who can outmatch Merlin. The Dark Knight meaner than the Merchant's daughter or the Rouge Osoro. The one with more charm than the Alchemist Amai. The one who is more royal than any princess could ever be! The One more Intelligent than any Governess. The one stronger than the Illusive Asu. I-I am, ONE OF THE GREATS." She had thought that Oka was the most timid in the Kingdom. The witch scared of even the smallest of holy actions. But now, now she was indeed one of the Greats. She would respect her in that way if she could bring back her girlfriend.
"What can you do to bring her back?"
"That depends Madam, what can you repay me with?"
"No amount of gold is-"
"Don't make me laugh with your puny human treasures. I want as a gift, something, supernatural."
"I can have one of the knights go out and-"
"No, you will show me to the only thing I want yourself, with one companion."
"And what shall that Item be?"
"You shall lead me to the Lair of the Great Wizard Kusha..."
