The Crown Prince and Ian welcome party and the Festival

"I take that as a compliment, your highness. It is great to be useful for the empire." I answered him. Then he looked at me seriously as if he is observing me.

"Ha ha ha ha! You are funny. I didn't mean to insult you. I am glad that you have managed to be a knight despite of being discriminately by nobles." he whattt!? Am I hearing rigth? napatingin ako agad sa kanya at siya naman tumawa ulit. Hindi ko alam kong bakit siya natatawa, may dumi ba ako sa mukha ko? kasi naman napatingin siya sa akin tsaka tumawa at ngayon hawak hawak na niya ang kanyang tiyan sa kakatawa.

"I'm sorry, it's just your face is priceless" whuuwhatt!? Damn this Prince.

"Ahm. Your Highness, I don't want to ruin your happiness but we need to depart now."

"Yes,yes I just find him interesting. The Duke is so lucky to have him."

"How do you say so, your Highness?"

"I can tell it. He is a great knight Ian. I hope you can work with him more."

"That's impossible, your highness since he works for the Duke Collins and I work for you."

Nag uusap na sila na para bang wala na ako sa harapan nila. Yeah yeah. I know I'm great, thank you for complimenting me but I still don't like you and your cousin Ronan.* rolled eyes*

"Then, should I talked to the Duke? hmm. I think it is a great idea." Nagulat nalang ako sa sinabi niya kaya naman napatingin ako kaagad sa kanya at parang nag iisip kong ano ang magiging rason niya. No no no. Ian stop him. sabi ko sa isip ko habang nakatingin sa kanilang dalawa. Nananahimik ako dito at nabalewala sa inyo.

"Please don't do that, your highness. Don't forget that he is the knight of Lady Collins if I am not mistaken. I don't think, she will agree to have her knight designated to the palace." Ian answered. thank goodness Ian parang nabunutan ako ng tinik sa dibdib.

"That's unfortunate, but I should give it a try." No no no. you don't need to. 

"Well, good luck your highness with Lady Collins."

I didn't expect the Crown Prince has this kind of attitude when I read the book because he was described as arrogant, serious and respectful but looking at him, kabaliktaran ang nakikita ko sa kanya.

"I'll talk to her later at the banquet. I hope the knight can attend as well." The crown prince said while smiling at me, parang kinabahan naman ako sa ngiting iyon. Ngiting hindi mo alam  kong ano ang kahulugan.

"I don't know if I can attend, your highness since I have a duty during the banquet."

"That's unfortunately, but I am still looking for that you will assist Lady Miary"

"I am not sur--"

"The carriage is ready your highness." Ian said kaya pala hindi siya sumasagot kasi umalis, hindi ko manlang napansin dahil dito sa prinsipeng ito. 😑

"Time to go my escort." Tapos tumawa habang papalabas at ako naman sumunod na sa kanila.

I waited for the crown prince to get in with his carriage while Ian and I is already ready to go. I commanded my knights to assists those injured and be alert for any emergencies while travelling. I was observing Ian secretly, he looks really good at his uniform and much taller than me. I would like to have a sparring with him.

Ian stay at the infront while me I stayed at the back, nasa likod naman yong mga kasama ko at kasama nila.

I hope na walang problema itong pag aassists, gusto ko ng matapos to. I feel tired already just getting here from the capital then going back. Sana pala sa capital nalang ako, kung hindi sa kagustuhan kong makita muli si Ian ay mas pinili kong manatili doon.
