Words that Selby said earlier kept playing in Iris' mind like a broken record. Those words made her blush and started daydreaming for a second – even after Selby had already left the shop.
Damon, on the other hand, shrugged the thought while laughing inwardly. He’s trying to avoid angering Iris again by controlling his laugh. He had known that she’s somewhat short tempered after all just by knowing him by the day.
He realized with that thought how Iris can make different expressions on Damon’s feelings. Everything she does was unexpected to him. Then to go back on what must be done, Damon hardly patted her back to bring her to reality. After doing so, Iris glared at Damon. She expresses how shocked and mad she was for what he’s done.

While the emperor was busy with some paper works, the empress, on the other hand, was having her morning tea in the garden with her two princesses.Wilhelm, being the crown prince, must have already woken up and have already attended his first private lesson for the day. But because of his exhaustion and curiosity of reading the book, he went to sleep only after he finished reading half of it as he put it again on his bedside table's drawerThat night was the night that he barely have time to sleep considering sleeping at past midnight just by reading a book. There, inside his room he was peacefully sleeping with his messy silver hair all over his gorgeous pale face pointed nose, red thin lips, and perfect body. He sleeps in an unusual position but that doesn't matter to him, what matters is that he got to sleep comfortably. Even if it means
░37░ Gordon'I know that the duke was behind this mess, but why? Guess I'll just have to play along with what game he's leading us into'He thought as he looked seriously averting his sight at the house and looking from afar with such distant cold lonely eyes he had'The world is full of evilness. Yet, there’s only rare people who do good to another'He deeply thought as he sighed a long one. He was now walking back to where he was before being followed by the knights respectfully. He went there until the knights had left the burned house and set their feet a meter outside of it continuing to bow in front of him.After walking out of the burned house, he immediately looked at the small book inside his pocket containing all the information about the commoners living inside the village. When he looked at the name Victor Polly his whole body went numbed and paused for a moment'That's why his name felt familiar with the overall information that I've gotten about him from one knight - it
Never did everyone in the village could imagine what would have happened to the house of their commoners' friend - Victor. He's one of the responsible people there. He’s everyone's friend and companion. No one would have held a grudge against him in the village so everyone was confused, hurt, and pained about what had happened to him and his family. They can feel his loss that greatly affected the whole village regarding that he’s one of the good people they’ve all known in their lives.Especially that the family never offended anyone there. All of the family members were hard-working with their own money. So they have no clue why did it all happen. The village that morning went to confusion and worry. Their reason was - they might think that if there was one house in the village that was composed of a friendly person got burned - then the next thing they'll know was one of their houses will be the next targetMurmurs and different expressions c
It was two hours before it gets midnight that the fire inside the commoner's village had happened and the other neighbor didn't notice such fire because their house was a bit far from where the other neighboring houses were. The incident was only founded by a - hunter man that hunt's prey animals at night inside the villageThe man shouted and shouted until all of the people came out of their houses and only then that they find a house burning inside their village. That made them shocked and surprised at the same time as it was the first time that a fire inside the village happened for a long time. There, the villagers knew that they can't report to the town at the moment because all were closed. So they have no choice but to look at the raging fire until the hunter man shouts for them to take water from the near lake and pour them all on the house. All cooperated except for the children that were shocked as they were prohibited to go outside for the night.The others
'What the hell did I just read?'And before he could even process everything he heard some footstep nearing where he wasDamon wanted to process everything about the information that he had finished reading but he can't seem to face process it all. For the moment, he was left standing at his position because he had already heard some nearing steps to the secret place thinking it might be the duke. He can’t seem to moved, like his whole body was paralyzed the moment he had red those information from the duke. He feels like it was another’s diary. He felt like – it was a diary of a long forgotten person within the empire. There, he was unconsciously shocked that the book that he had held tightly in his hands earlier had now already fallen to the floor. Yet, his sight was focused elsewhere with his mouth wide open.With the sudden footsteps that he's hearing, he immediately went back to reality as he shook his head, closed his mouth
"They remind me of Yragus Mestia, the emperor's brother," the witch said reminiscing the past"Wait, Yragus Mestia? Yragus, Yragus, I've heard that name before it was a different Yragus, it was Yragus Gordon. The empire's previous emperor from years ago but why was it called Yragus Mestia here? Considering it was based on true characters that or maybe the book was lying? Did Mestia exist in the first place?"Aiden whispered through the silence of the night. He was truly shocked by the information that the book had when it wrote the name of the brother's emperor. He knew that the name Yragus was the one that implemented, for the people in the empire, to build schools - and that was because he was fascinated by the idea that nobles should also socialize as a matter of young acquaintances and so the empire built the Yrag Academy. But the Yrag academy was now known to be Hermonia. Aiden knew of those because his tutors taught him while he was reading the empire’s his
