Lory sigh with her hand held her chin "I'm boreeeedd...…" she sits on the arhat couch on the pavilion with a gloomy expression.

[Don't even think about it…] Girsha warn her strongly

[I'm not thinking anything…..] Lory rebuked with a pout on her face.

[Really…..] Girsha disbelieved [You make the same expression before you sneak out the castle with the other] Girsha remembered how often she sneaks out the castle with Lucas, Jay, and Clift just to have fun, of course, they were cough most of the time by Fredhard and punish doing extra homework after that but it's never stopped her.

[I know I'm weak as an ant in this world, I won't do anything reckless you know!] Lory said

[And the sun rises from the west…] he said sarcastically.

Lory mouth twitch, well is not like his wrong she really though about sneaking around but for some reason she scared she would anger Zhao Li Xin, not like people in her world who is hard from the outside but soft on the inside so most likely they just scold her a few hours and that's it but Zhao Li Xin is different she felt more intimidating with him than she felt with Fredhard, imagine Zhao Li Xin angry with her not just scared her but for some reason she felt her heart ached so she did not dare to against his order.

[Why you more worrywart tha before birdie…..] Lory sighed again.

Girsha not only worry because Lory become weak without her 'Gift' but also because Lucas and the others are not around to protect her Girsha feel adamant to protect her to replace them and after what happened he felt he failed to protect her he feels guilty to Lory and the others, what so good being 'First Kind' he can't even protected one girl but sadly his real power was bound together with Lory power even though he still has half of his power not like Lory who lost most her power but still it's not enough especially in this world who also have strong beast like phoenix and Dragon this fact makes him worried for her.

[Hey Lory…..!]

[Hnn…] Lory was eating grapes when he called her suddenly.

[Why don't you marry that Lord?]

Lory almost chocked from the grape, she spit the grape and cough profusely after a minute she managed to stop coughing she glare at Girsha who almost killed her with grape [What the hell!!] she shout angrily.

[What's wrong? He got the power, the wealth and looks...you even drool on his looks] Girsha asked casually.

Lory face turned red [ Hey, every normal people who had feeling would drool when they see face like him, it's human!!] she justify herself [And he not looking at me that way…..]

[What way?] Girsha baffled, it's so hard to understand humankind even after all these years.

Lory exhaled [I save his life, he felt grateful to me....so is not like that….anyway you never heard the phrases 'You don't shit where you eat' before]

[Who asked you to take a SHIT? I wanted you to get married!!] Girsha confused even more.

Lory roll her eyes to tired to explain it to him but talked about Zhao Li Xin it's been a while since the last time she saw him, this Manor feel quieter when he's gone it's funny though since Zhao Li Xin is not the 'chatty' type, but somehow she felt restless when his not around she not even realizes about her owned feeling all she knew she feel better when he's around.

Lory never experience romantic relationship, she lives in the world where most people married at their late twenty or thirty when she reached her teens she busy doing royal duty and having fun with Lucas and the others when she becomes seventeen she supposed to be experienced first date and all but she ends up facing the hard truth about her family and Kingdom so when she got time thinking about loved when everything she got is on stakes, and a few years later everything just got worst Lory never experiences normal lives before, she proficient with combat strategy, fighting, politic and scheming but 'loved' it's different matter she used to rely with Fargo, Fred or Jay about social life but since they were not here the Princess is lost.

"It's been a week…..where is he….?" she pondering quietly to herself.

'And you said you don't want to marry him…..' Girsha sighed.

Suddenly she hear commotion in front of her, when she raised her head a Man with enchanting face that can make all top model in her world cover their face from shammed walking slowly to her, his black and robes with gold flower embroidery on his sleeve waving elegantly with his every moves, his silky black hair flown behind his back perfectly Lory always wonder how could he do that, Lory touch her corner mouth make sure she's not drool because Girsha she become more conscious about her behavior.

"Welcome back Mi Lord" Lory bow respectfully at Zhao Li Xin.

"Li Xin…" he never tired of correcting her.

The problem is Lory can't call his name without blushing, even know she can feel how hot her cheeks are but unfortunately, Zhao Li Xin loved to see her blush, his heart felt ticklish every time she's blushing he always had this sudden urged to teased her every time he can.

"I...Li Xin…" Lory said softly and just like they though her face turned into a tomato. Zhao Li Xin feels satisfied he missed her very much this couple of days if not because his breakthrough is approaching he would never leaved her, his breakthrough is dangerous for common people like Lory he did not want to accidentally hurt her. Zhao Li Xin sit on the couch next to her separated only by small table. A male servant arrived and served wine for Zhao Li Xin and replace Lory tea with warmed teapot a few pastries also served on the small square table next to Lory since Zhao Li Xin never eat pastry it's a bad memory when he was a child most poisoned is adding in his pastry ever since that he never eat pastry again.

The servant left after his finish served the food, everyone knew is bad idea to interrupt his cultivating and lovey-dovey times with Miss Luo, even though Lory never realizes the other servants thought about her, she only felt people in this manor is overly polite to her but Lory though is because she is Zhao Li Xin personal maid but she does not know everyone treats her as highly respected guest.

"I never knew you quite obedience to heeded my words" Zhao Li Xin sips his wine cup elegantly make Lory felt her years training with Fred is wasted.

"Of course I'm listened, I heard the situation outside is more rowdy everyday"

Zhao Li Xin sneered "Just a bunch of fools"

"But is quite festive isn't it, so...when we can go out?" Lory asked with an eager face.

Zhao Li Xin remembered Lao Min Na still looking for her, he confident he can protect her from thousands like Lao Min Na but the idea put her in danger is not sit well in his heart "Lao Min Na still looking for you?" said Zhao Li Xin

Lory frowned "Why is it because she thought I hurt her?" Lory annoyed is not her fault Lao Min Na got hurt and it's was her who first attacked her so why keep the grieving, talking about a petty person.

"Yes and someone paranoid like her don't like to have a loose end..." said Zhao Li Xin with mockery tone "But doesn't worry nothing would happen with you when I'm around" he assured her.

"I'm not worry…" Lory smiled at him, she not feel worry even though she won't know what kinda power or authority he had but for some reasoned she feels safe with him like when she with Lucas and the others nothing is going to be wronged when their around even when they lost in a dungeon for several days Lory don't feel worried at all, if they're any different with Zhao Li Xin that is her face keep blushing repeatedly.

"Maybe you should wear veil or mask" Zhao Li Xin suggests her idea.

Lory tilted her head "Mmm….i don't like it…." The veil will hinder her from eating snacks and the mask makes her suffocating so she doesn't like either "I think I can do something, if I could do something with my face the can we got out….?" She stared at Zhao Li Xin waiting for his assurance.

"As long you don't hurt yourself, of course...." he nodded, is not like he can't refuse her request anyway.

"Then it settled!!" Lory clapped her hand "When will we go?"

"How about tomorrow"

"Okay, wait for me tomorrow then!!" Lory smiled excitedly
