Chapter 28 - The Spirit Tribe “If you’ll go as far as to say that, then...” Did she finally make up her mind? Feli slowly unsheathed the sword I gave her. “I will use all I have to stop you…!” She spoke forcefully, while looking all around herself. Could she see something? Was there something there? Or maybe she was preparing to do something. Even if it was something to surprise me, there was nothing my “Spada” could not cut. “You’re on…!” I could tell…-

Chapter 27 - Feli von Yugstine “You don’t need to escort me anymore from tomorrow onwards. Ask Grerial about your orders.” It was still early morning. The sun had yet to rise: it was an awfully early time for me. However — as expected — Feli was already up and waiting next to my door, so I took the chance to say it. “....what does that mean?” Feli frowned, not understanding the intent of my words. “I never needed an escort in the first place.” I had no…

Chapter 26 - The Real Objective That evening— “I heard everything.” Grerial almost barged in Welles’ room and uttered such words. “You’re planning to start a war to save your family.” “The Truth behind the Rainbow Flower” The book had a continuation. The miraculously recovered princess eventually fell in love with a prince from Rinchelle and, after a passionate love story, married him. And they happily lived ever after. However— her illness was said to be hereditary. The princess’…

Chapter 21 - The Sea A few minutes later, Feli came out of the restaurant. She did not seem to be in a hurry. She probably realized I needed some time alone; I couldn’t say for sure, but she knew that I was not the kind of person to use restraint with my words. She approached me, coins jangling in her palm — probably change — as she looked at me blankly. “Your Highness, you put down way too much for a meal’s fee.” She then took my hand and put the change in it. Since we were outside the…

Chapter 20 - Trash Exactly one week had passed since then. We departed from Diestburg and, after three days of travel, we reached the kingdom of water, Rinchelle. Grerial laughed, saying that we arrived much earlier than predicted, then told me that the audience with King Rinchelle was scheduled for three days later, so we could act independently until then. Bringing us to the present. “....was that really alright, Your Highness?” “Don’t call me that here, you’ll make us stand out.” While…

Chapter 17 - Reaching for the Ideals “...Your Highness, how long do you plan to sleep… It’s already 4 in the afternoon...” Ratifah, my personal maid and attendant, sighed. About one week had passed since I returned to Diestburg. The letter of gratitude uncle Leric penned to my father the king, while containing no truth at all, mentioned that I apparently accomplished all sorts of exploits, so my slothful life was now father-approved. “Some important guy once said that living your life bound by…

Chapter 19 - The Florist A dozen minutes after the conversation with father and Grerial, I used a secret passage out of the castle into the town. There were no escorts with me of course. I also changed my clothing so I didn’t look like a prince, but a son from a well-to-do family at best. Since I usually stayed holed up inside, only a few people knew my face, so even if I went into town no one would likely recognize me. “Is the florist in?” I arrived at a small, secluded house. The board outside…

Chapter 16 - The Last Night It did not take much time for the war between the Beredhia-led alliance and the kingdom of Afillis to reach its conclusion. To put it simply, it’s because I killed too much. Among the soldiers that perished because of my “Spada”, there were nobles in charge of command and officers deeply involved with the troops’ organization. Moreover, the loss of a large number of troops and the “Hero”, who was the core of their strategy, marked their defeat: the alliance’s army…
