"You impress me everyday Taely", the Manstler stood infront of me licking his lips and flashing me a smile," That was EPIC!".

I was out of breath, my chest was heaving fast and my heart was beating fast as drum rolls, I looked at them with my lost breath then the Quer helped his sister to stand up and helped her clean the dust.

I regret it now, I threw a glance at the grech, he was still frozen looking at me in amusement, I'm pretty sure that I've got myself into trouble.

The Quera then held my wrist turning me around to face her, she was about to explode in any minute,"Who are you?", she widened her eyes, "How could a maid beat me", she was angry with me where she should be angry at herself for not being that good infront of me,"ANSWER ME!", she shouted with the top of her voice causing me to flinch, neither the Quer nor the Manstler spoke anything.

I didn't answer her, what would I say? I was afraid from being exposed. Her anger increased even more when she didnt hear me answer, she held her hand high posing to slap me with all her mights, but a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist throwing it down causing the Quera to vibrate at the force.

"ENOUGH!", the Grech looked at her angrily.

"Enough? She threw me on the ground and she aimed her sword a-",

"You wanted a strong opponent, and the Manstler warned you not to underestimate her, and she won over you", he forrowed his eyebrows and pointed at her,"If you can't handle the burns, then don't play with fire",

He turned his gaze at me , as soon as I locked it with him i directly looked away,"follow me", he walked towards the hepta and then stopped and looked back at the Quera,"and the way Quera ", he faked a smile,"Never ever think of punishing any of the workers in here, it's my job and you'rea guest, so don't cross your lines".

I followed him silently and perturbed, I just didn't want this to end up sending me back or just kicking me out of the Senna. I felt like I belonged in such a small amount of time. I felt safe and home.

I closed the door of the office behind me gulping for the hundredth time making my mouth dry. The Grech sat on the chair beside his office and pointed at the chair opposite to him so I could sit there.

I sat down with a lump and took a deep breath calmly. He folded his hands and extended his legs and stared blankly at the ground. I was looking at him waiting for him to speak, I wanted him to spill out what he had, his silence only killed me more.I clanged my both hands together making imaginary circles with my thumbs.

After what felt like years he sat up , placed his elbows on his thighs and leaned forward," Care to explain?",I looked at him having the guilty look,"How could you beat her?",

I reminded myself, if I do any wrong move I'll definitely be exposed , I still have a very tiny chance, so I took a deep breath,"You know that my dad is a sol-",

"A daughter's soldier can't beat a Quera Taely! Don't lie to me", he sat up straighter, "I hate liars Taely",

"It just happened that I had a better body building your majesty!", I teard,"I worked in a farm digging and holding huge kilograms of hays and dragged wagons, and what about her?", I smirked," She has her maids to dress her, I know it is impossible to win over a Quera,but I was able to stop her attacks cause I have stronger muscles and she was tired your majesty, I only took the advantage of that, and kicked her, THAT'S IT!".

He sighed, he had started to believe me,"How could you stop all of her attacks?", he hit me with that question.

"Your majesty, if you don't know, a soldier teaches his children how to defent themselves before teaching them how to attack",I paused swallowing my own saliva,"plus she was attacking me in the same pattern which made me memorize her tactic and then knew when to stop her attack and where ",

I was hoping that he would believe me, well I sounded very logical, so I was studying every movement he did until he sighed and looked at me," Why do you keep doing this to me?",

I was confused by his question, what did he mean? So he believed? Well if he didnt believe then he would have continued with that questions DUH!

"What do you mean?", I questioned as the door opened without a knock and the Manstler came in smiling.

"How's the tough girl?", he sar beside the Grech,"Can she join the army?", he elbowed the Grech as the Grech sent him a glare which made the Manstler giggle,"She's really good I like her", the Grech sent an eyebrow up,"The way she plays with the sword not else", he pinched the Grech's cheek,"I wonder if she could beat me too, how about w-",

"Shutup Jimin", the Grech was off with the Manstler's blabbering.

"Then may I say one more thing?", he was acting like a child which made me wanna giggle but I controled myself,it was so obvious how close these two were.

"No!", the Grech exclaimed standing up heading to his chair behind the desk.

"I wont be able to sleep if I didn't spill it out", he was begging the Grech to speak like a child begging his angry dad to buy him a toy.

"Go for it and then Shutup", the Grech sighed and looked at some papers placing his glasses over his nose.

"Thank you for giving that WICKED WITCH a lesson she won't forget as long as she is breathing this polluted air", he smiled at me which made me confused, so they hate her too?And OHH!!WICKED WITCH too! So it's not only me calling her like that? Well that's a relief

I heard the Grech giggle,"I agree with him on this one", he licked his lips," she deserved it, it made me releaved that someone could do this instead of me",

"So you aren't angry with me?", I asked confused.

"Well you havent done anything wrong, you beated her? She asked for that! Actually I'm proud that you did that, she kept on mocking the guard's abilities ",I smiled widely happy to hear that we have the same target,"Can you please rematch?", he laughed so hard which made me giggle.

"Enough Jimin, Taely you can get back to your work", I nodded and stood up but then remembered something important.

"May I ask a question?", I looked at the Gretch who sighed.

"What is it tough girl?", the Manstler answered the question that absolutely wasnt for him.

"What is it?", the Gretch looked at me.

"Can I have free time out of the hepta?",
