Her Knight

and

His Queen,

They Not Realize

Brief, Life of Jesifer in Jelfyr, Flashback: The man was surrounded by some guards, ordered by the queen. His name had been asked, Viergo Diarke. He rejected any reward and he ordered the queen to be a good rightful ruler instead. But his pacing to depart was halted to hear the princess proposed, “If your kindness and strength would be passed to generation, I don't mind marrying your son.” She cries. “Let it be in my family. I don't want those dreadful moments repeat. I could die in shame.”

The man replied, “My highness. You're more mature than my son. At your age he still cries. Visit us in a village to the south of Mt. Ma Eling westwards from Deep Forest. I think you will hate him. That child always looks for trouble. I mean, troubles find him always.” He asked the queen permission for his departure. Then he had left the kingdom escorted by the guards.

Criselia vs Jaino, Flashback: "Oh, Jaino, I'll gonna love this," Criselia's words attract Jaino, who's wiping tears and sees her happily receiving those gifts from her newly fans. "I'll enjoy strolling and meet you later, see yah."

Jaino sighs. The child shows honored as the noble child apologizes on him. He stands up. "Guards, give me a path. I need to evaporate my trauma." And the guards struggle to resist the people, persistently trying to reach Jaino.

One of the people yells, "Sire! Give us painting of the nude queen when you marry her!"

The hell. I was not chosen to marry her. I was chosen to be her knight. But,

I can't protect her.

Flock in waiting, Flashback: Both Criselia and the female scholar see Jesifer face, confused. Criselia says, “Well, it's good if you can have a chat with your Jaino.”

“Hey, we had met the person he loves yesterday,” has replied by the flustered Jesifer. “We must not make things complicated. Besides, the person that I have wanted to, was long gone.”

“Have you remember, the girl Kilie that we and Jaino had visited?”

“What's with her?”

“Well, I just discovered two stupid facts. But, well, it's better for you to discovered things. I don't mind sharing him with anyone of you, so long as you contribute highly. Ha ha ha ha.”

Intro—

Outside the southwestern gate, in the wide plain, among the evacuees, the missy Ritzel sees the boy with bandage on his injured arm, supported by a cloth, clinging around his neck. The boy Shin is talking to a woman, Chalise. Nearby them, a veteran woman, Niavera Shau is involved to a conversation to people of her age.

Ritzel approaches. Nearing the injured boy and a woman Chalice, their conversation she begins to hear.

The boy loudly speaks, “As I said, this wound won't stop me. I'll become an adventurer. I can and I know that better than you. I'll be successful, I'll show you.”

“But your safety is important,” has persuaded by Chalise. “Isn't your duty to lead the clan?”

“A no! A big no! I don't wanna!”

Chalise whispers on his ear. His cheeks flush. He yells, “There's no way! I told you, there's nothing between me and her! She's not my—!

“Shin,” Ritzel's voice has startled the injured boy.

“She's... She's... ha... ha, ha, ha, ha...” He scratches his hair.

“What are you both talking, Shin?”

Chalise replies, “We are talking about his crush,” making the boy agitated.

“Seriously, give me a break!”

“So Shin has a crush. I'm interested to know.”

“Don't listen at her! She's just making things up.”

“I see. By the way... I have something to speak to you...” The missy gazes down to the right. “Can we talk alone?” Chalise whispers again into the boy's ear. The boy has his face turn red. Being agitated, he resists himself. The missy follows up, “So Shin, you don't mind?”

“Is that important?” He sees the missy nods. Chalise pushes his back a bit. The boy's face is in red. The woman, Chalise chuckles, resulting him cursing back at her by his gesture.

In the area, away from the people; both hands, the missy Ritzel, she holds on shin hand. The boy gulps. “Shin—“ Hearing her speak, he gulps again. She continues, “Forgive me to what happen in your arm.” Tears flow from her eyes. “Because of my incompetent, Shin, I put you to harm. Forgive me, Shin. I'm so sorry...”

After staring at her face for a bit, the injured boy, he replies, “You don't need to cry and apologize. I was just thinking you're so cool that time. I was so ashamed of myself. That's why I want to become an adventurer, to strengthen myself. And it's my dream to discover many things. Seeing you fight, that made me think, I too shall not be dependent, and must stand with my own two feet. So I think, Ritzel, you're amazing. You're awesome.” His words have made the missy cries much.

She hugs him and mumbles, “Shin.”

The boy smiles.

Saying goodbye at the missy, he comes back to where Chalise and his mother are. Chalise speaks, “That was so sweet. Did she confess and you accept her love?” Her words have made the boy's thoughts explode.

“Shut up...”

—End of Intro

The black dragon roars and roars. Fiercely, it roars. The black sphere emits a wave as it resonances all over the kingdom of Jelfyr. Suddenly, Jesifer frees the giant blade. It slams into the ground. Both hands, she covers her ears. In pain by the deafening sound, she kneels. She cries aloud.

Unharmed by the attack, Jaino thinks, I hope everyone has already evacuated. To Jesifer, he asks, “Hey, what's happening to you? Hey?” Sh*t, when I finally find an option. Then this suddenly happens... I can't lost her... Jaino swings his black sword at the creature in the sky. The black sphere emits a wave, colliding at the attack. He swings his white sword and follows up his black sword. The force collides at the wave responded by the black sphere. The other one passes across the black sphere. With the same combination, Jaino swings his attack again. His first force has blocked by the black sphere's response. Yet his other force, it explodes the head of the black creature. The dragon, its head regenerates quickly Jesifer cries in pain again.

He thinks, Sh*t. I don't know what's happening, but I need her. Or... maybe, I'm unharmed because... Is this necklace protecting me? But I can't remove it or else I go berserk. He holds both swords in one hand. He suddenly holds Jesfier, her hand. I'm so sorry... No... what the hell I am saying... I need to protect her. She is my only chance of this battle. Seeing Jes, I mean Jesifer recovering from being in pain, Jaino thinks, It can work this way too? Spirit of void, I'm in your debt. Thank you.

Still in pain, Jesifer looks at Jaino. Noticing her feelings gradually lightens, she thinks, Did I recover? What's with that, by the, way? It could break my ears and my mind for any moment. Only to realize her hand is holding Jaino's hand, she tries to let go. “What are you doing?”

“Hold my hand tightly. So you won't suffer the same agony again.”

“Huh?”

“Don't worry. I'm here to protect you.”

Jesifer gazes down to the left. She mumbles, “I, I can protect myself.” But this isn't so bad... Another tears river on her cheeks. It was been many years, I'd been longing this feeling. Mother...

“Don't cry.” Hearing his words, she looks at Jaino who does back. “Stand, we still have business to take care off.”

In Crewtner Village, Miera is having a meeting in the council. In the table, among the people on their seat, the head councilor speaks, “I never realize such people with kind heart may visit us. —They are plentiful of number exist, still. We really gladly accept the warm gifts and those aids of yours. Yet, as we speak of earlier, there is nothing here that we can return the favor. My people, the survivors, just begin to rise from the rubble.”

“You worry for naught,” has assured by Miera. “Kilie solicited them from our clients, who prospered from our loaning services. Those clothes, the vegetables, fertilizers, and the farm tools, those were given from our generous clients.”

“I really appreciate such kindhearted actions. Despite she lost her three branches, she's still considerate to help others before herself.”

“That what makes me proud of. As her teacher, I shall support her with everything I can.”

Back, outside the northeastern gate near outside the wide arena: talking to her servants, including her big bodyguard named Dhumbou Dougoung; Kilie is approached by a woman, wearing a flowing dress. “Ma'am,” has said by the arrived Meda.

“You finally come back. How's the survivor?”

“So so... About the other branches...”

“No need telling me. I already accept the huge loss of the business. Do not worry, our work still continues. We can't just give up quickly as I believe he won't either.”

“Ma'am. I'm confused. Who is he you talking about?”

“Ah—,” Kilie then smiles. “It's just me randomly bubbling my feelings. Don't over think about some no sense sentence. Be interested to what happening in the kingdom. We are waiting for the fate going to fall upon us.”

“I was worried too. It's only a good thing that my brother is safe.”

“Don't be negative. Have faith to our saviors,” has assured by Kilie.

In a grassy plain, unknown to the knowledge of the two people in the area: still standing, Vilyarin asks to Sai Mea, currently holding the hand of a person, lying in the ground and covered in blood, “Woman, how do you feel if someone touches your lips with their lips?”

“A strange question my highness. That was your first time?” Not receiving a reply, she continues, “My highness, it doesn't feel bad if we like the person. I like it that I can't stop—” loving the prince, Raume. She then smiles. “But it's disgusting if you kiss someone you don't like. I can't probably accept it in my whole life.”

“If you were kissed by someone owned by another person. How would you feel?”

“You mean, Jaino?”

Loudly— “Answer me,” has responded by Vilyarin quickly.

“My highness, your question is not about the kiss. I already answer you about that. Your new question is a different matter. If he's married then, there's nothing appropriate for you to do than distance yourself and forget about him. But if he's not, and you love the person, I think it's your decision, either to defend your feelings or respect your rival.”

“I understand. You lighten my mind.” My sister...

Becoming more interested, Sai Mea asks, “You like him or not?”

Being startled, she responds, “Who are you talking about?”

Sai Mea smiles. Trying to evade my question, you cannot escape my persistent my highness. If I ask you, Jaino, you would probably deny. How about this. “My highness, my mother told me that your mother hated liars and don't want her children to become one.” Scrutinizing about Sai Mea's words, Vilyarin listens at the follow up, “My highness, how do you feel about the kiss, you like it or not?” Her words turn Vilyarin's lips shut tight. “I feel bad if you ignore me about that.”

The strictness woman slowly speaks, “I, that's—” She gazes to the right. “I'm actually confused.”

“...really?”

“That's the truth. Forgive me.”

”I see.” She holds the prince hand tightly. “Me, I like the prince very much. So, with all I can do, with our queen granted me as bearer of the shadow army, I will protect him.” She cries. “But, how I can save him now? I don't have the tools to cure him.”

Vilyarin smiles. “It may take time. But my blood cloaking on his skin can heal him.” Her words give warm to Sai Mea's feeling. Sai Mea cries much.

Outside the south of Jesifer, in the wide plain, Zahamara sees, his colonel approaching at him. The colonel reports, “Sire, the patients, physicians, and many sick persons are all evacuated to Crodanadal Villa. Although, the number of persons under treatment increases, due to medou people used for transportation; still, everything is under control.”

“That's good to hear,” has replied by Zahamara.

The commander of the castle guards approaches, “Lightning, most of the evacuees have exited Jelfyr, to the north and here in the south. Still those hardheaded people remain in their home. I hope they won't die. Your daughter Maritis reported that some of her men inside Jelfyr and near the wall died in uncertain phenomena. The symptoms show that the diseases have their eyes and ears bleed and their face shows sign of despair and agony.

“Everyone who enter back in the kingdom by that moment suffered the same fate. So your daughter strictly prohibits everyone on entering back to the kingdom.”

“Thank you. I suggest to inform everyone about the situation.”

“We just begin the operation. Messengers have already there in the north area too.”

Outside the northeastern gate of Jelfyr; watching the people taking shelter inside the wide arena, Marshal Dogel is approached by a soldier. “Sir, we confirm the identity of those nobles who ally to the underworld and want to dethroned our prince. One is a member of the council. Three are in hiding. Five are arrested by Duego with the help of the third division. The rest are confirmed dead. Still, there are rumors that an exceptional general is among the elite of the underworld.”

“You're doing a great job,” has praised by Marshal Dogel. “Send messengers to the Area Generals. Commence a search to those scoundrels!”

“Yes sir.”

After his conversation with the soldier, he's then approached by Sammuel Larigan, a group leader of the Craze Guild.

Back to where Jaino and Jesifer holding hands, Jesifer complains, “Anyway, please let go off my hand!”

“If I let go, you will suffer the same agony again and you might die. I can't let that happen.”

“But I need to wield my sword.”

“I shall be your sword, your shield. And I shall guide you to beat our opponent. By your power, you are my ace.”

She gazes down to the right and mumbles, “But this awkward...”

“Jes, let's save everyone,” by these words, Jesifer looks back at his face and then she nods.

Standing in the rooftop of the Mansion bestowed to her from Duego: protecting the place against the dark sphere's wide attack, Criselia thinks, Oh my, Jesifer and Jaino are so lovely to watch. Jes, you haven't notice, but you become my rival and an ally.

Many might not realize it

The search for the most valuable

That thing may be around nearby
