After all the work on Queenie’s clothes and jewelry was done, the maids left Queenie’s room. Queenie asked the guard to not let anyone into her room. She wanted to get rest for a reason. Queenie immediately latched the door that kept her room locked.
She back sat down and looked at the red velvet box on the table. Queenie put down her hand. The black mark on her hand and the circle on the box sparkled together. The light of the red box radiated onto the wall and reflected a female figure.“Mom!” Queenie choked in disbelief.The female figure in the light from the red box was smiling.“After five years, you finally find the secret box. I purposely kept it for you. When you hear this, you will be ready and able to overcome all the challenges you will face.” Queen Sarah’s face looked so wise when she talked to Queenie.She continued by saying, “Queenie, to become the Bright River royal throne owner, you must meet the qualifications. He wrote all terms you have to fulfill in the book in the box. A magical man before your birth wrote the book. Only after you qualify in the book will you be eligible to become the first queen of the Bright Kingdom’s ruler. I hope you remember Everything. Only once do I show up myself. After all, we will not see each other anymore. Take care of yourself. The world is full of evil. Kindness will be the beautiful part that everyone longs for. I love you.”As Queen Sarah finished her last sentence, the light from the red box disappeared. Light reflected the figure of Queen Sarah, also gone. Queenie panicked! she hadn’t spoken to her mother yet. She hadn’t hugged her mother yet. Her longing for Queen Sarah was so deep.In annoyance, she brought the black mark on her hand closer.“Come on! Show up! Come on!” Queenie stomped the black mark on her hand desperately. But nothing happened. Queen Sarah’s shadows were just like a recording for one viewing.Queenie was sad. But she tried to toughen up and replay Everything she heard from Queen Sarah, her mother. A secret and a requirement to become the Queen of Bright River? What did her mother mean?Slowly, Queenie opened the red box in front of her. Inside the box, there was a book that was just a little thick. The book was the size of Queenie’s palm. She took the book and started opening the first sheet.‘Once the wedding happens, then all will be in vain. Dragons are only afraid of gems.’Queenie tried to turn on the next sheet. Failed! The next sheet locked, and she could not open it. Gave up on the second sheet, Queenie tried to focus on the first. A sentence that she had to understand and solve.Queenie put the book in the box and closed it. Her face looked so confused. The little butterfly perched on her shoulder saw Queenie’s anxiety.“Princess, when a woman has married, doesn’t that mean she belongs to her husband?” asked the little butterfly.“That’s right.”“If so, then it’s the same Prince Fabian will have you. You are the heir to the Kingdom of Bright River. Then, it means that the Bright River will belong to Prince Fabian. So all your efforts to become Queen will be for nothing. Because Fabian will rule the Kingdom of Bright River with your hand.”A small butterfly flew and perched on the box and stared at Queenie with her big, round eyes. Queenie saw the little butterfly.“Does that mean I can’t marry Fabian?”Queenie’s memories of her life before death and Everything she experienced were turning. That day, Fabian persuaded Queenie to go with him to enjoy the mountain air. It was the third day of her wedding. Fabian then pushed Queenie into the abyss known as the abyss of life.People named the abyss the abyss of life because Everything that fell there would certainly die. The abyss was so deep. Even they could not see the bottom of the abyss. But a miracle made Queenie fall into Deril’s vineyard. Therefore, Queenie had a chance to change her sad fate.She got back to her life two years before her death. The day she got engaged to Prince Fabian. If Queenie couldn’t prevent her wedding from happening, then that meant all the opportunities that Queenie belonged to were for nothing. She will come to the same destiny and die on the third day after her wedding.Then they killed King Darian on the same day. They shouted at everyone that the Darian King was exhausted from despair after losing his only daughter. Prince Fabian ascended the throne, and Queen Obelia became his Queen.After a new life, Queenie understood. All this time, Prince Fabian and Queen Obelia had taken advantage of her stupidity. The innocence of a young girl who was crazy about the good looks of Prince Fabian.“No! I’m not gonna let this happen. I have to stop this marriage. But how? The Nicundhra Kingdom is indeed as big as the Bright River. But they are Dragon controllers.”Queenie propped her face with both palms. Her elbows were pressing on the table. She understood the problem but found it hard to find a solution.She repeated the words that she had read from the book.“The Dragons are only afraid of gems?”Queenie said, “that means we must get the Dragon Conqueror gem. We have to find out where it is!”“You’re very smart, Princess! Now, how do we know where the gems are?”“I’ll talk to my father. As a king with many experiences, I’m sure my father knows something about the location of the Dragon-controlling gems.”Queenie opened her room. Two bodyguards who were in front of the room wrapped and saluted. Queenie hurried to the pavilion, where she was there for rest.She found the King standing on the edge of a fish pond. A pond contained a variety of large fish. Some were bigger than humans. Queenie heard that a knight from the country of the heavens awarded the fish for her father’s courage in protecting the people during the war.Queenie approached her father. After bowing to salute, she hugged his father.“Queenie!” King Darian greeted his daughter with a festive look.“Dad, I came to talk to you about something. Are you busy?”“No, Queenie, sit down. I’ll always have time for you. You are my life. Tell me what you want to discuss with me.”Queenie seemed hesitant. She didn’t want King Darian to know her plan before all was fixed and clear.“Is it true that the father of Prince Fabian, King Eric, is a dragon controller?”“That’s right. It’s not just King Eric who has that ability. But also the children of King Eric. It is an ability that is a gift from generation to generation.”“Including Fabian?”“Maybe. I never asked King Eric about this. Is something bothering you?”“No, Dad, I just want to know how great my future husband is.”King Darian laughed it off. Probably his daughter loved her future husband too much. That was why Queenie wanted to know all about Prince Fabian.“Dont worry, Queenie. After your marriage to Prince Fabian, then the power of Nicundhra is automatically on our side. Having the support of the power of the Dragons will make our Kingdom second to none.”Queenie was silent, looking at the face of King Darian. Her father looked full of pride.“But, Dad. Our Kingdom is great too. We have never been attacked or attacked another kingdom without reason. Then why do you want the support of the dragon controllers and their dragons?”King Darian smiled. He didn’t agree to marry Queenie to the seventh prince of the Kingdom of Nicundhra. Queenie was the future ruler of the entire Bright River Kingdom. Fabian and Queenie would be no match.However, because King Eric threatened to attack Nicundhra with the Dragons, King Darian agreed to the relationship between the two kingdoms. Queen Obelia always tried to convince him that Bright River would be amazing and live in peace if the Dragons were on their side.Dragon Power of Nicundhra was the most feared power in the world. But King Darian didn’t want his daughter to know that her match with Prince Fabian originated from a threat. Since Queenie and Fabian’s first meeting, King Darian saw both falls in love. So with great pleasure, King Darian gave his blessing.“Queenie, in the future, you will become the ruler of Bright River. We must ensure the Kingdom stays safe and the greatest power in the world is on your side. Only after this can I come down from my throne and surrender to you with a calm heart.”Heard her father’s words. Queenie’s heart raged. Queen Obelia and Prince Fabian had fooled King Darian. Big dreams about a father’s love for his daughter were used to finish them both.But Queenie couldn’t say it all to her father now. She needed great strength to make Nicundhra retreat. Also brought evidence of the conspiracy between Queen Obelia and Prince Fabian.“Dad, ever you hear of the Dragon Conqueror gem?”King Darian frowned. He looked at his daughter.“How do you know about it?”Queenie didn’t want to answer her father. She asked again and made sure his father knew about it.“So you know about this?”King Darian sighed deeply.“That Dragon-controlling gems ... is my grandfather’s. The first Darian King” said The Darian King sorrowfully.Queenie’s eyes narrowed. She listened well, her father said.“When my father, the second Darian King, was sick, my grandfather tried to heal, anyway. But the only medicine owner was the North Sea King. My grandfather came there and asked him to give medicine to my father. But the North Sea King asked for an exchange. The medicine and the Dragon-controlling gem. For the sake of my father’s life, my grandfather finally agreed.”It felt like a storm was raging inside Queenie. She imagined a great person like the first Darian King could sacrifice a great thing for his son's soul. It was a hard decision. Everyone knew the first Darian King as the wise king. He was never randomly using force.“Is the gem still there?”“They well kept the gem there. Unfortunately, the North Sea King had allied with the Dragon Controllers of the Nicundhra Kingdom. They use force to threaten and frig
They heard Fewa’s question. Queenie and Leya turned their heads together. Fewa was so worried when he heard the name of the North Sea Kingdom.“You know that place?” asked Queenie.“I come from there. But who are you, and why do you want to go there?”“I am Queenie, the daughter of the King of the Bright River Kingdom, King Darian.”Fewa’s eyes widened, then blinked quickly, looking towards Queenie. A few moments later, Fewa shocked his head.“You’re the daughter of King Darian? Ahh… finally came.”Queenie and Leya looked at each other. Although Leya needed help to understand Fewa’s words. But she saw Queenie’s expression. Fewa must have to say something important. This Little Dragon in front of them knew many things about the North Sea Kingdom.But Fewa again felt pain in his almost severed wings. Fewa, he grimaced and cried.“Ouch...!”“Fewa!” Queenie rushed over to the Little Dragon. She rubbed his back lovingly.Leya flew low around Fewa. The Little Dragon sat on the ground in ver
“Fewa!” a beautiful woman with long blonde hair ran up to Fewa and hugged him.The woman looked the same age as Fewa. Then a man also approached him. Hugged the woman and Fewa simultaneously.“I’m fine. Queenie and Leya have saved me,“ Fewa said.Everyone was aware of Queenie and Leya’s existence among them.The woman who was with Fewa and the man next to him released a hug from Fewa. The two stared at Queenie and Leya.“Who are they, Fewa? Why did you bring a human into our nest? Why can this girl breathe in the deep ocean like us?” asked the man with Fewa.“She is the heir of the Darian King. Princess Queenie.”Hearing the name of King Darian called, everyone who was around them in unison knelt. Everything happening around her confused Queenie. However, Queenie’s face remained calm. It seemed that she had opened the first thing she needed.“Please accept our best regards, daughter of the Darian King.”“Wake up! I don’t need any respect from you. Right now, all I need is your help,”
Queenie, Fewa, Argo, and Finiah walked into the palace hall. Drawn swords were ready in their hands. The four men entered with courage. Argo, Finiah, and Fewa in their Knightly armor looked impressive. Meanwhile, Queenie was like a mighty Princess. Leya flew around them.The palace guards were shocked when the four people entered the Hall of the North Sea Royal Palace. The chaotic atmosphere in the hall felt so hard. Some palace officials discussing with King Jumuck stood up and prepared their swords.King Jumuck looked calmer seeing the arrival of the familiar Argo.“What are you doing here? I didn’t ask you to come to the palace today.”“From today, I don’t need the invitation to be present in the North Sea Kingdom!” answered Argo valiantly.King Jumuck’s eyes narrowed. During this time, Argo was the leader of the Dragon Knights. But there was just little that Argo could do to protect his herd. The power of Argo was never useable in front of King Jumuck. He had a dragon-controlling
Fewa took Queenie and flew slowly. The battle in the North Sea Kingdom tired them. Queenie’s wedding day was getting closer. They couldn’t longer wait. They must quickly return to Bright River and foil Queenie’s wedding.The girl sat majestically on Fewa’s back in dragon form. She looked Like a fairy in a scary Dragon escort. Queenie the graceful and Fewa the Dragon. In dragon size, Fewa was small because he was still young. But he can destroy a big house just by a wag of his tail. Fewa movement in the water also created ripples that made deep-sea animals restless.“I didn’t know Leya had that much magic. The little butterfly turned out to be a gigantic monster. If not for Leya’s wings that spread and made King Jumuck’s light turn around, maybe we would never have won.”Queenie just silently heard Fewa’s statement. It was also the first time she saw Leya’s true strength and self. The little butterfly has followed Queenie since she returned from the dead. But Queenie never asked who Le
Queenie’s words made King Darian more worried than before. He approached and stood right by Queenie’s side.“Queenie, I don’t expect a war with Nicundhra. They will summon the Dragons and destroy our kingdom,” whispered King Darian.“Dad, so worried?” Queenie stood face to face with her father.“I don’t want a war that carries risks to our people. After all, you agreed to marry Prince Fabian. I would not force you if you did not show love at the previous meeting.”Hearing what her father said, Queenie glanced at Prince Fabian. Seeing Queenie’s gaze fixed on him, Fabian became confident. He stood up and walked a few steps closer to the altar of the royal throne. Where Queenie and King Darian are.“Princess Queenie, whatever you say, we don’t take it to heart. Especially me. Not in the least. I was offended. I fully understand that everything you did was to protect your rights and your kingdom.”The tense atmosphere surrounding the Bright River palace hall got slightly smooth due to Pri
Queenie’s eyes, which had been showing cruelty ever since narrowed. The combination of a stony gaze and face as the snow seemed able to kill anyone standing in front of her.Queenie reached into the back of her dress. It was a piece specially designed for princesses. They could keep their valuables in the hidden back of the dress.She pulled out a ring with beautiful carvings and glittering diamonds. Someone had specially designed it.“Before I explain anything, I asked the royal servant. Come on, Clara!”A servant hurriedly and pale-faced advanced to the centre of the palace hall. The young woman looked nervous.“Tell Me, Clara! How did you find this ring?”“I ... I’m cleaning the room occupied by Prince Fabian. Then I found the ring on the bed. Since I saw it was a woman’s ring, I gave it to Princess Queenie. Maybe Princess Queenie dropped it while she was with Prince Fabian.”Queenie’s eyes turned to Queen Obelia.“Dad, isn’t this the ring you gave as a gift to Queen Obelia on her
Argo’s eyes were full of respect and obedience. Queenie surely touched the top of the dragon’s head. It amazed everyone, excellent view. A beautiful girl touched the dragon’s head affectionately.“Queenie, what are you doing?” asked King Darian. The King’s face looked frightened.His Princess was so much closer to the dragon. A creature that had been a symbol of fear for many people. By dragon’s power, King Eric and King Jumuck defeated various kingdoms in the world.“Argo!!! What are you doing? Cut them both off. Let their heads roll at my feet. I want my shoes on the head of the Great King Darian!” King Eric shouted.The dragon, which was the incarnation of Argo, flipped over. His initially yellowish-green eyes turned reddish-yellow. Argo showed his anger.Then he raised his body high. The dragon’s head touched the ceiling of the palace hall. Instantly, the top of the palace hall cracked. Everyone ran away because of several rockfalls. The atmosphere was getting chaotic. The sound o
