I decided that I would go out with Yuta.

Out of the room. I wanted to get out, and breathe fresh air.

As I was tailing him through the long hallway, there were people bowing to our direction.

"Who are they?" I asked quietly as I grasped the back of his dress.

Then another lady with the same dress as the ladies before, bowed again as she was passing us by.

"They're servants, relax."

Yuta grabbed my hand that was holding him from his back and pulled me to walk next to him. Then he opened up my palm and interlocked our fingers together.

I felt my cheeks were burning. "Ugh I feel like they're bowing to me now."

"They are." Yuta smiled at me.

Why would they bow to me— servants??

"Where exactly in Ba Sing Se are we, Yuta?" I asked.

"The Upper Ring." he said.

"And what is this place?"

"The Royal Palace." He said casually.

We made a sharp turn to the left and stopped in front of a giant wooden door. There were two armed men with spears who seemed to be guarding the door opened it for us.

The room was so much brighter, I had to squint.

"JULI!!"

I heard several familiar voices as the door was completely opened. There was a fancy fire place across the room, green sofas, and tables and some kind of a board game on top of it. Then at the other side of the room was a giant window with fancy golden casing.

"It's so good to see you, Juli!" Xiaojun said as he walked closer extending his arms for a hug.

That means I have to let go of Yuta's hand. So I did and I received a warm hug from Xiaojun.

"Good morning, princess." Ten smirked.

And I will never get used to be called Avatar, or princess, or have people bowing to me.

Xiaojun and I pulled away from each other.

"Happy to see everyone's doing good," I said as my eyes landed on Jaehyun.

"Glad to have you back." He said and I couldn't help but to smile at that.

The guys were all dressed similarly like Yuta, but they all wore different shades of green. And like Yuta, they all looked like princes.

Especially Jaehyun.

I feel like I'm in some kind of a historical movie.

As I scanned around the room, I noticed that there was something not right.
