The couple woke up joyfully forgetting about what had happened yesterday with the ugly fight that had happen in the tea house. I/C wanted to pay for the damages but the owner insisted she shouldn't do that since she is royalty after all. Instead of excepting the offer she decluned and still wanted to pay until Ichiji came in. He then got a small bag and threw it in the the table where gild coins fell out. 

Ichiji: There that should be enough now let's go 

I/C: Okay 

Ichiji: Also I/C 

I/C: Yeah what is it 

Ichiji: Aren't you going to put somethings over your face 

I/C: There's no point after all it's going to be a pain in the butt

Back to the Germa Domain 

Judge did not look at all happy when the couple entered the palace in fact he looked at Ichiji as if he was some sort of enemy. Ichiji wanted I/C to stay behind him but she insisted that if he gets punished then she also needs to get punished for her the trouble she made. The Emperor was sitting on his golden throne looking arrogant as ever as before.

Judge: Do you know what have you done 

Ichiji: No I have not father 

Judge: Don't even call me that you pathetic piece of shit for a son

I/C: Excuse but what have we done 

Judge: Don't even get me started you have ruined our reputation as a royal family 

I/C: I'm sorry your highness but....

Judge: There are no but' I am going to punish you 

Ichiji: Wait it wasn't her who had made the damage 

Judge: No but she was the cause think it through my perspective now you will be in the palace for the rest of these months and you will become a maid for the princes 

I/C: I will except this new command of yours 

Ichiji: Now wait....

Before Ichiji could finished Judge yelled for guards to escort him to his room leaving I/C with the horrible Emperor in Germa. Sometimes she wonders of  why must she be in this type of situation in this time of life of where she should be enjoying things while she can. Instead she is being held as a slave working in the palace until she  becomes a old lady who can no longer work. I/C then changed into the plain kimono which every maid in the palace was wearing. Judge ordersd her to pamper the princes with care except Ichiji since she had caused him trouble.

Niji: Wow now who are you I've never seen you before in the palace

I/C: You know me already Niji 

Niji: Huh now why does your voice sound so familiar 

I/C: Majikayo I'm princess I/C remember the girl behind the veil and your future bride 

Niji: Oh so this is how you look like huh your pretty

I/C: Thank you now may you excuse me I have to go to your room and clean 

Niji: Who do you think I am a pig 

I/C: No a stubborn lunatic that only thinks about girls fir their beauty instead of their personality 

Niji had nothing to say and just started walking to the training dojo to improve his skills to be better than Ichiji. While on the other hand I/C was trying to figure out where would Niji's room be located in the palace so she can do her job. After a few hours of searching she found a princes room but it wasn't Niji's it was the big green gorilla. I/C didn't want to wake him up but that certainly wasn't the case for Yonji. He woke up and looked more energetic then before then saw a random girl look at him through his door way. It was an awkward situation for I/C to be standing there without saying anything. 

Yonji: Hey you who are you 

I/C: I'm a maid and I'm here to clean your room Yonji 

Yonji: Now your voice it sounds like...

I/C: I/C's 

Yonji: Yes how did you know 

I/C: That's because I am her just without the dumb veil 

Yonji: Ok so are you going to clean my room anytime soon 

I/C: Well that's what I was about to do 

Yonji: Then get started 

I/C: Geez alright 

Yonji's room was quite clean then she expected all she did was made his futon polished some of the vases inside the room. Finally after a few hours of trying to make everything look perfect I/C took a break from all the hard work. She was about to leave when all of a sudden Yonji grabbed her wrist as if he didn't want her to leave. 

Yonji: Wait don't leave 

I/C: Is there something the matter Yonji kun 

Yonji: I'm hungry so can you make me something to eat 

I/C: (Cutely) Sure 

Yonji: (Blushes) Thanks 

I/C: So what would you like to eat then 

Yonji: Pulled blossom  noodles 

I/C: Oh those that will be a tricky one but I'll do my best to make it taste good

Yonji and I/C then walked to the kitchen where the magic starts happening to make the dish Yonji wants to dine on. I/C was mostly doing all the work where Yonji was sitting a side looking very clueless to see cooking actually works. He was a very impatient man where I/C was calm and does things steady  and properly to make it the best. 

Yonji: (Sigh) Do you need help 

I/C: Yes 

Yonji: Then tell me what you need help on then 

I/ac: Help me pluck  the peddles off of these blossoms that were bloomed yesterday 

Yonji: Fine 

He walked over feeling confident that he will ace this new task of his except he has no clue on how to take the peddles off. When he did try to take the peddles off but he ripped the peddles to the point where he gave up. I/C giggled and laughed until finally she helped him with this simple task he was assigned to. 

I/C: Now here like this (Gently rips the peddle off)

Yonji: (Rips the peddle of gently) Yes finally (Smiles) 

I/C: Now keep on doing that until I'm done making the doe for the noodles

Yonji: Sure 

Then after a few minutes Yonji was done taking the peddles of the blossoms and walked iver to I/C to see what she was up to. She was rolling the doe up down left right then started to punch it like a punching bag. Yonji was quite amused of how much effort she was putting in to make these noodles for him. After I/C was done making the doe feel fluffy she started to pull it on a strange  looking tree stick. She pulled the doe for a few hours then putted the freshly pulled noodles in the big iron pot. Moments later the noodles were done with some fresh blossom peddles to add some flavor to the soup. Yonji was the judge to see if the noodles were good or bad. 

Yonji: (Slurp some noodles) Hmmmmmm 

I/C: What do you think 

Yonji: I thinks it tastes wonderful just like the noodles that my mother made

I/C: Really I'm glad to hear that 

TBC 

I am sorry I/C and my fellow readers I had been busy with school and other projects that I needed to get done. 😐
