On the throne, Lady (Y/n) was listening to her adoptive son's conversation while he sat on her lap, " I learn a lot thanks to Uraltugo! " Solomon chimed, glancing towards Lady (Y/n) with a bright smile.
Lady (Y/n) chuckled at his optimistic personality, " I'm glad to hear that, Solomon, " she said as she gave Solomon a head pat, " Did you thanked Uraltugo after your lesson with Uraltugo, Solomon? "
" Yeah! "
" Great, " Lady (Y/n) smiled before she closed her eyes, " Do you know the symbolism of a dove and a raven, Solomon? " She asked him as she senses him shooked his head.
" Well, " she trailed off as she slightly lifted her eyes, " Doves are known as a messenger of peace as they helped us go through our lives calmly and with purpose, " she explained, motioning her hand towards the rukhs inside the Throne Room, causing the rukhs in various shade of colours to morph into doves.
" Wow! " Solomon said in awe, watching the doves flying every way.
" And as for ravens, there are folklores that mentioned that the ravens are the symbol of death and bad omen, " Lady (Y/n) stated, remembering a distant memory.
" Why? "
" It's because of their black plumage, croaking call and diet of carrion, " she answered Solomon's question as she continued, " Ravens also represents prophecy and insight as they often act as psychopomps, connecting to the world of spirits, "
Lady (Y/n) watched as the remaining rukhs morph into a flock of ravens, watching them joining the doves before she glances down at Solomon, " Do you understand, my little sunshine? "
Solomon nodded, " Thanks for telling me, mom. " He thanked her as he gave Lady (Y/n) a quick hug before he got off from her lap, " I'll be going to my room okay, mom? "
" Sure and be sure to rest well, " Lady (Y/n) told him, watching him nodded his head as he entered the door portals and after Solomon left the Throne Room, Lady (Y/n) gave out a soft sigh as she motioned her hand, causing the doves and ravens to disperse into rukhs once more.
After clearing what had happened at the front gates, Sinbad changed his attire back into his formal attire and sat on his chair with a bump on his head that was given by Judar as he was furious after seeing Sinbad wearing the clothes that belong to (Y/n).

Speaking of (Y/n), Yamuraiha and Pisti volunteer to escort (Y/n) into the Palace as she was going to be the guest of honour in Sindria while leaving the others to watch Judar shouting towards Sinbad. It was amusing to see their enemy scolding Sinbad that relates to (Y/n).
Nevertheless, Sinbad had gotten an earful of lectures and scoldings from them, but, he always had his thought about (Y/n) ever since he set his eyes on her. It was like the term and he thought it was nonsense until it all came clear when he met (Y/n).
" This will be interesting, " Sinbad smiled like a dork.
I was laying on the queen size bed while glancing around the ravishing room that had the same colour scheme of Sinbad's Palace, " At least, I don't have to listen to those moaning sounds in that brothel, " I murmured while having the shivers.
I gave out a heavy sigh as I shut my eyes for a moment when I sense the rukhs were in distress, I opened my eyes and saw the rukhs were slightly tainted before she heard them whispering :
" Ja'far? " I held a confused expression as I got up from the bed and went out of my room to follow the rukhs while avoiding the guards who were guarding at night until I stopped in front of Ja'fars room.
I took a deep breath and lightly knocked on his door, " I'm coming in, Ja'far, " I whispered as I quietly opened the door and went inside before glancing around my surroundings until my eyes landed on Ja'far who was sweating with cold sweat while mumbling something in sleep.
I stared at him with a worried expression as I made my way towards him and sat beside him, firmly holding his pale hand before leaning down on his forehead, " Hymn Of Redemption, " I whispered as it transfers my conscious into his.
Ja'far held a terrified expression after murdering both of his parents with the sharp coil that was dripping with his parents' blood before throwing the coils, " T-this isn't real, " he mumbled several times, ignoring the blood that was staining on his clothes.
Meanwhile, the silhouette stood next to Ja'far was grinning ear to ear and said :
With that said, all of the memories that were locked away came like violent waves, hearing all of his past victims' cries and their pain, it was unbearable for Ja'far to handle until someone came, giving Ja'far comfort.

Ja'far heard (Y/n)'s voice which made him quiver his lips, gripping onto her petite arms, " T-that's because it was my fault, " he told her as he tried to hold back his tears.
" ᴇᴠᴇɴ ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴄᴏɴᴛɪɴᴜᴇ ᴛᴏ ᴡᴇᴇᴘ, ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴘᴀʀᴇɴᴛꜱ' ᴡᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴄᴏᴍᴇ ʙᴀᴄᴋ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴇᴀᴅ ɴᴏʀ ᴛʜᴇ ᴘᴇᴏᴘʟᴇ ᴡʜᴏ ʜᴀᴅ ᴘᴀꜱꜱᴇᴅ. "
(Y/n) comforted him as she caressed his white hair while Ja'far had his eyes widen as he hesitantly gazes at her and met her (E/c) eyes that held kindness in her eyes.
" ᴀʟʟ ʏᴏᴜ ɴᴇᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ ᴅᴏ ɪꜱ ᴛᴏ ʟᴇᴛ ɢᴏ ᴏꜰ ᴛʜᴇ ᴘᴀꜱᴛ ᴀɴᴅ ᴍᴏᴠᴇ ᴏɴ, ᴊᴀ'ꜰᴀʀ. "
Soon, Ja'far shot up from his bed as he was breathing heavily, ' I-it was a dream? ' He thought before he felt warmth on his hand, causing him to turn his head aside and met the same (E/c) orbs that were filled with kindness.
" M-Ms (Y/n)? "
The Magi smiled kindly, " I'm glad you're awake, Ja'far, " she told him as she wipes off the sweat on Ja'fars face, causing him to blush.
' Cute, ' (Y/n) thought as she gently pushes Ja'far on the bed, " Do you want me to stay next to you until you sleep, Ja'far? " She asked the freckled man while caressing his white locks before (Y/n) felt him firmly hold his hand.
" I see, " (Y/n) mumbled, peering her attention towards the window before humming a lullaby that she sang for Kougyoku.
~ * ~
It was now in the morning as Ja'far woke up without having a nightmare for a long time before he felt his bed being shift, he glanced down and had his eyes slightly as he saw (Y/n) was sleeping next to him which made him flustered.
" I-I forgot that Ms (Y/n) stayed beside me, " he stuttered, rubbing his nape nervously before he carefully got up from his bed and carried (Y/n) back to the guest room.
(Y/n) groan as she tiredly woke up and found herself back in her room, she raised an eyebrow and wondered how she was in her room until the rukhs told in her room whispered through her eye, causing her to blush slightly.
" I should've known, " (Y/n) on her pillow before the rukhs told her, " What?! " She whispered with shocked as she quickly got off from the bed and towards the wardrobe and saw a two-piece Arabian style clothing that barely covers the skin.
(Y/n) gave out a groan while rubbing her forehead, " If the others knew about this, Sinbad would be dead by now, " she grumbled as she closed the wardrobe and went toward her sling bag and pulled out the clothes that Kougyoku gave me.
" Do you think that Ms (Y/n) would be pleased about your gift, Sin? " Ja'far question the Ruler Of Sindria with an unsure tone.
" I'm sure she likes it, Ja'far! " Sinbad gave a stupid grin, making Ja'far rolled his eyes, " I'm worried about that head of yours, Sin. " He murmured, silently praying for Sinbad's safety.
And with that said, Kemono rushed towards Sinbad which caught him off guard as Kemono had Sinbad's head inside his mouth, " Help me!! " Sinbad screamed as he tried to get out from Kemono's mouth, " Who brought this lion the Palace?! "
" Sorry about that, Sinbad! " Ja'far glanced over to the side and wasn't expecting to see (Y/n) wearing another attire than the other one that Sinbad had prepared for her, " Is this lion belong to you, Ms (Y/n)? " He calmly asked her as he saw her nodded her head.
" Yeah, I'm sorry about that, Ja'far. " (Y/n) scratches her cheek, glancing towards the lion, " That's enough, Kemono, " she said, causing him to spit Sinbad's head and return to (Y/n)'s side before the other Generals came into the scene.
" What happened to Sinbad-sama? " Drakon asked, glancing at Sinbad who was full of shocked after being stuck inside of a lion's mouth.
" Yeah, this is the first time seeing him like that, " Sharkkan said with his arms folded while watching Pisti poking Sinbad.
Judar was eating a juicy peach that he took from the kitchen until he felt a sudden tingle for the back of his spine and a pale dark aura was seeping out from his body.
" What the **** did that stupid King do this time on (Y/n)?! " He yelled while he squash the half-eaten peach and everyone from the Palace heard his loud yell.
