Sorry if it's bad…..
If it is about their clothes… Just imagine the clothes in Ragnarok.
=+One Heck Of Objection+=
No way.
I can't leave my friends.
I can't leave everyone.
I can't leave this little town, Swiron, where I used to live.
I can't leave everything.
I can't leave all the things that are precious to me.
I just simply can't leave all things.
I can't…..
"Mother? Did I hear you right? Rizoe?" I asked my mother as she told me the shocking news that I always wish to never happen.
Why? And Rizoe? It's a far country…
"Yeah, sweetie you hear me right, we will going to leave tomorrow and move in the royal palace of Rizoe to serve the King and Queen." Mother repeated.
Ugh! Why us?! I always hated royal persons! They are disgusting! Well, not exactly disgusting. But I hate their rude attitude!
"Mother?" I continued to ask disbelievingly while Mother just nodded her head. I' am currently wishing that she's just joking, but unfortunately, luck wasn't on my side.
"NO?! What about my friends? What about… what about…. my happiness?! I always hated royal persons, you know that." I protested.
Royals are so full of their selves. They always disgust us, low-class persons, without having a particular reason. They are cruel. They love seeing people, under their royal status, suffering.
I never admired royal bloods.
I never admired their silky clothing.
I never admired their wonderful palace.
I never admired their unlimited freedom.
I never admired their countless gold.
And I will never admire them! Because I always loathed them!
"But Mikan, that's the only way to keep ourselves, living, and to keep ourselves earning." My mother keeps on begging me.
"But those freakin' royal blooded persons are the reason why there are many families like us that are dying in hunger! Then why work for them?!" I keep on protesting.
All of miserable things that are happening in this world of Alice are just simply because of those royal blooded persons, those high-class persons, and those middle-class persons. They are all the same!
"Mikan, look in different perspective, not all of the royals are cruel." Mother pleaded, again.
"I'll still oppose!" I told my Mother as I stomped my feet while heading in the stairs. I walked to my room and lay at my small sized bed. I closed my eyes.
Why?!
I promised to myself that I'll never like any royal persons. They are the reason why I, my brothers and my mother are living in a miserable life. I can't understand why my mother wants us to work for the royals that caused every hell in our life.
It's not fair!
"Father, I miss you. I wish you're here…" I mumbled.
If Father is just here, then my mother and I won't need to work for those disgusting creatures.
If Father is just here then our life isn't as miserable as today.
But what did royals do?
They took our only hope away from us. They killed my father….. I hate them….
We are already inside the Rizoe's royal gate but still outside of the palace; the image was way too beautiful, same as the royal palace in the country of Fristhiane. The knight led us in the tower where the servants are staying.
"You must be the new servants." The perm haired girl told us. By the looks of it, she's also a low-class person and a servant in this palace.
She's beautiful!
I suddenly felt something about the perm haired girl.
"Yeah, we are the new servants from the town of Swiron. My name is Yuka Azumi and here is my daughter Mikan Sakura." My mother answered politely.
"By the way my name is Sumire Shouda, I' am also a servant here. I'll expect working with you starting tomorrow." She replied to my mother as she smiled at the two of us inwardly. I smiled at her too.
"And I'm going to be Sakura's roommate. Would you mind coming with me?" Sumire added. I faced my mother.
"Okay. Mother, I'm going to go in my room already. See you later." I told my mother. Then she whispered something in my ear. In a way that Sumire can't hear.
"Never kill anyone in this palace, especially those royal persons. Control your self even though you hated them." Mother whispered on me. I know what she exactly meant by that.
"Mother, if this-" She cut my words.
"Promise me." She told me. I just nodded. I bid my mother a goodbye while following Sumire.
Sumire and I were currently walking in the stair cases when my lips blurted out something.
"Tell me, you're a royal blooded too, aren't you?" I asked out of the blue. And then, we stopped walking and Sumire stared at me.
"Uh-oh, I'm sorry I didn't mean to ask such nonsense question." She shook her head after I tell that sentence.
"No, it's okay." She answered as she smiled genuinely. She didn't answer my question. We are drowned, again, by the silence.
I don't know why I asked that out of the blue, it's just that I can feel something that I can also feel in other royal blooded persons. But if she's a royal blood, then why is she working as a servant? Many questions played in my mind.
I slapped my forehead. And then, I heard Sumire chuckled. I looked at her. She's more beautiful when she laughs.
"Oh, sorry." She told me while stopping her self from laughing. We stopped walking.
"I guess, we're already here." Sumire told me while opening the door in front of us.
As we entered the room, I noticed that there were three beds.
"We have other roommate?" I asked her. She nodded.
"Yes, she is currently in the other country together with the Queen." Sumire told me. She sat in her bed and then, she turned her gaze on me.
"You're beautiful." Sumire complimented. Not too many people call me 'beautiful'.
"Thanks. You're the second person to call me 'beautiful'." I smiled at her and the seat at my bed too.
I' am not really a friendly person who loves to smile and talk to a newly known people. But I somehow feel comfortable whenever I'm with her.
"Really? I wonder why." She replied. She's starting the conversation between us.
"They always tell that I'm cute, but not beautiful. Only my mother is the one who tells that I'm beautiful." I told her while I laid my body at the bed.
She told me that she was given a rest day today.
We decided to continue our chatting with one another since we have the whole day. I realized that after her innocent and well behaved manner, there lies a talkative side of her. She's the first one to tell things about her self.
She told me that she lived on this country all her life. She started serving the royal persons when she was still a seven years old. She came in the palace together with her friends, but as the time passed by, they have forgotten each others. She even told me about her childhood secrets and funny moments.
I've known that she was never really talkative on persons she doesn't seem to get along with, and fortunately I'm not one of those persons. When our topic is all about her alice, she told me that she had a Predisposition Alice in a form of cat and dog. I was amazed by her alice. While she was talking to me, I noticed that she didn't tell anything about her parents. I' am aware that we both have similarities and that makes our chemistry.
When it was already my turn, I told her about my life in the little town of Swiron, where I came from. I even told her how I object to Mother when she told me that we were going to be a servant in this Royal Palace. I also included how my friends reacted when I told them that we were moving in a far country. Sumire laughed when I told her that I expected my friends to cry while I'm telling them about our moving since Rizoe is a far country but my friends just pushed me here.
I told her about my alices. At first I' am kind of doubtful about telling my second alice to her since only my family knew about it. But my expectations didn't agree with her reaction. I thought that she will fear me after I told her my second alice but she didn't. Instead, she comfort me and told me that as long as the user won't use it in a bad terms, my stealing alice isn't something to be afraid of. After that, I also told her how I loathed and hated the royal blooded persons. She agreed in everything I said on the topic of 'royals'. I guess it's also one of our chemistries.
After we finished chatting with each other Sumire decided to tour me in the palace, I agreed with her. The palace is too damn big that's why we took so long. Sumire and I went back to the 'servants tower', which is just near in the main hall, after several hours of wandering around.
I was amazed on how the structure inside the palace of Rizoe differs from the palace of Fristhiane. The two palaces in different countries were both beautiful but in different way.
Thinking about this palace makes me think about the King and Queen.
I wonder what's going to happen during my first day in this palace tomorrow…
"So many flowers… Sumire?" I murmured to myself while holding a basket of flowers together with Sumire as we walked in the corridors of the palace.
Well, I could say that the lead servant allowed the two of us to work together since I don't know anything in this kind of work.
"Yes?" Sumire replied as I call her.
"These flowers are for what?" I asked her while smelling the scent of the flowers.
"These are for the royal ball that's going to happen tomorrow night." She told me.
"Royal ball? For what?" I asked, again. I was really a curious person.
I wish she won't get annoyed in my questions.
"For the homecoming of the prince and the princess," She answered politely.
"Okay." I responded plainly.
When we already reached the main hall where the royal ball was about to happen, we helped the other servants in decorating the, oh so, wide hall. I heard that the prince and the princess just arrived yesterday.
"Sumire-chan, and Mikan-chan the guest of the King wanted a servants, and everyone were busy here so, mind if the two of you go there?" Sara, also a servant, asked us. I looked at Sumire.
Sara is also a new found friend, but I didn't feel any chemistry between the two of us unlike Sumire.
"Sure Sara-chan, after we finished putting these laces around, we will immediately go there." Sumire answered.
"So it's already settled. I'll go back to my work now, okay?" Sara told us before we end up the conversation. I just gave her a curt nod saying that she can go now.
"Sara-chan is a fine lady don't you think?" Sumire asked me while arranging some laces.
"Yeah, but I don't think I can get along with her. She's too innocent for my sinful attitude." I told Sumire in a serious tone with a bit of joking while helping her in arranging the laces.
"Me too," Sumire replied with a chuckle.
"Why does there are only few royals here, in this palace?" I asked but still arranging the laces. I felt that she suddenly looked at me.
"You're wrong, there are many royals here. But you can rarely see them." She told me in a sad tone.
"I wonder if the Upper Superior Government of this country is not allowing low-class people to join their Generals." I told her. I guess I'm changing the topic.
She chuckled.
"Why?" Sumire asked.
"My Father used to be a knight and when I was a kid, he taught me along with my brothers on how to be a warrior." I stated. I thought she's going to laugh at my sentence but she didn't.
"Cool…Are you wishing to be part of the war too?" She told me with a hint of admiration in her voice.
I was really fond of her because all of the persons that know about my idiotic wish just laugh at me every time I told them about it.
"Yeah," I plainly answered.
After our conversation ended, the laces were also finished. After that, we headed to the King and his guests.
"Your highness, we are the servants that were sent to help the guests." Sumire told the King as we entered the room.
I noticed that the guests were a King, Queen and a little Prince around 3 or 4 years old.
Royal blooded people.
"Oh, I hope the two of you wasn't disturbed." The King told us. So he's nice after all huh?
"No we aren't." I replied. I think it's already my time to reply since Sumire have always been the one to speak.
And besides, I don't want to wreck my Mother's reputation by just being wild in front of the King without any particular reason.
"Is that so? Can I know your names ladies?" The King asked.
"Our names are Sumire Shouda and Mikan Sakura." Sumire answered.
"Then, Sumire and Mikan, can you handle Prince Youichi of the neighboring kingdom for awhile, until King Shiki, Queen Noriko and I finish talking?" The king asked us.
"It's our pleasure your highness." Sumire and I answered in unison.
Well, Sumire taught me how to answer while we are talking yesterday. And I'm getting used to this whenever someone talks to me.
"Yo-chan, come with them and be a good boy. Don't be naughty, okay?" I heard Queen Noriko told to her son. Then she looked at Sumire and me and smiled.
"Take care of him." Queen Noriko told us. We just smiled at her. Before she handled Prince Youichi to us, she gave him a peck in cheeks.
Sumire went to the little prince and hold his hand. The three of us went out of the room together with a knight.
"Prince Youichi, please don't go too far." Sumire told the Prince softly while holding his wrist so that he will not wander around too far. The knight is just standing there.
We are here, currently walking in the lake side that is inside the palace's forest.
"Hey, ugly hag let go of me." Prince Youichi told to Sumire. I guess this little Prince is pretty spoiled.
He used his alice on Sumire.
Ghost Manipulation Alice huh?
"Prince Youichi, I suggest that you better stop calling her ugly hag because she's older than you." I told to the spoiled prince politely while smiling forcedly. I'm just trying my self to calm since he is a royal.
I nullified his alice before Sumire could shout.
"Who are you to order me? I'm a prince and you're just a servant." Prince Youichi replied.
I told you, the attitudes of the royals are disgusting.
I blocked his way and glared at him.
Geez, this Prince's makes my blood boil.
Damn.
"Don't block my way another hag." He told me coldly while shoving me.
"Mikan, calm down, he is just a kid." Sumire told me.
Yeah, I should calm down. But…
"Sumire, I'm sorry if your life is going to be in mess too." I told Sumire as I saw Youichi, using his 'ghosts' on attacking the knight who is currently fainted and covered with not-so-many blood.
This boy's going to get what he wants!
Low-class persons like us is not a toy in which he could just take advantage!
Face my wrath!
I carried him and threw him in the lake.
Goodbye, Alice World...
Again, I'm sorry if it's boring.
Please review!!!
Just tell me if you want me to continue this…
Or maybe I can just delete this…
But anyway, thanks for reading…
