"Hmmmm."

"So, please help me Mr. Alucard!" Guinevere pout, try to look cute. Alucard was keep thinking. He then let out a sigh.

"Fine. We're going to Lunar Temple." Guinevere grins. She jump, happy that she could persuade Alucard. Alucard let out a sigh. How could Granger let this woman entered this castle without permissions from Princess Silvanna?

"Let's go, Alu. I've packed my things. Furthermore, you've finished your breakfast. Let's go!" Guinevere grins. She happily walks out the room, only to find Princess Silvanna in front of the door.

"Princess?!" Granger's face turns pale. Oops. He's dead.

"Hello there Princess Guinevere... How are you?" She raises her eyebrows. Guinevere let her small chuckle left her mouth, awkward.

"Hehe... I'm fine, princess. Sorry for slept in your castle without your permission." Guinevere scratch her neck, shy. But then she remembered something.

"It's okay. I don't mad at guess, but surely I'm a bit upset that Granger didn't tell me anything. You guys know that I put barrier on this castle? I could even sense outsiders enter my castle." Yup. Guinevere forgets that Princess Silvanna was once a great mage. She now uses her magic in her combat skills.

"Hehe... Sorry princess. Guinevere had her own problems, so I couldn't tell you earlier." Granger scratch his cheeks. Awkward.

"Hmph. I just hope that you didn't do anything weird last night, Granger. After all, she's a woman too." Silvanna gives Granger a glare, which make him shivers down to his spine. Alucard was just yawning, sleepy. His schedule suppose to be free today, but yeahh.

"No, princess. We didn't."

"Glad to hear that. Princess Guinevere, come and breakfast with me. You can go to Lunar Temple after that, okay?" Guinevere just nod.

"Thanks you, princess Silvanna." Guinevere bow and follows her. Granger let out a sigh and stay in his rooms. Alucard packs his things, so that they would travel easier.

In the dining hall, Guinevere was served with too much breakfast. Bacons and eggs, orange juice. Does princess Silvanna breakfast with these everyday?

"I'm pretty sure you were hungry. Hence, I askes the maid to cook more food for you. I'm not sure what a Britsh family eat during breakfast, but I hope you like it." She grins and continue to eat. Silvanna just eat a sandwich during breakfast.

"I'm so sorry for your incovenience, Princess. Also, I feel grateful for your great hospitality." Guinevere scratch her neck, shy. Silvanna gulp her tea, before respond.

"It's okay. Something must happen then. I though you're still at the academy. Now, why you're here?" Guinevere just put on her unusual smile. She put down her fork and knife.

"My parents betrothed me to the noble Paxley. I always thought to be free, not a trophy wife. Besides, they never saw me as a daughter, but a trophy and a thing to fulfill their selfishness! They just want to be richer and more powerful. I just hate it. So, I decides to run away. Luckily, I remember about Granger here, ehehe." From a grim reaction, Guinevere just smile in a moments. Silvanna could really tell her sadness and misery by just looking at her eyes.

"I feel sorry for you, princess. May you find your freedom and be with someone that loves you so much than you love him." Silvanna grins, before continue to finish her tea. She then thought of having coffee.

"Thanks, princess. Oh, by the way, you could call me Guinevere, princess. I don't seem fit for this position. Someone like you would suite this title of mine, not a mere teenager like me." Guinevere let out a sigh. She then drinks her last drop of orange juice.

The dining hall fall silence for a while.

"You can call me Silvanna too. I'm... Just a few years older than you. Drop the title, okay? I only thought that my friends would call me normally but yeah... Only Fanny and Tigreal managed." Silvanna put on her forced smile. Looks like she dislike to be called princess too.

Before Guinevere could finish, Alucard comes with his and her backpack.

"Are you ready, princess? I've contacted Miya earlier. She said that the teleport would be rather when we arrive." Alucard still yawning, probably because of the most worn out mission yesterday. He didn't sleep nearly for two days, but now it seems like for three days.

"Hehe. Alright. I'm gotta get going. Thanks, Silvanna." Guinevere bows her head and gives her beautiful smile to Silvanna who was still stuffing her stomach. She nods and gives a thumb up. Guinevere catch up with Alucard who was walking talking tiredly.

It may takes about 2 hours if walking but they have horse carriage so why bother to walk?

Guinevere enters the carriage. Alucard was already lays down and sleep. He already told the carrier to take them to Lunar Temple. Guinevere let out her sigh. She was worried of what might happens after this. But, she convince herself. Thus is her path. Her way and her fight. Why everyone likes to see her suffer? This is her life, isn't?

Guinevere laid back her head, try to sleep while sitting. She then remembers about an astrologer, Esmeralda.

Esmeralda was her friend before. They met at the magic academy a few months ago. She was from Ageltra Drylands, or accurately Stargate Valley.

She's a sweet woman in middle 20s'. She was a bright and pretty too. Guinevere remembers her after she recalled that Esmeralda had seen her future.

Flashback, Magic Academy, A few months ago.

"Hello, Princess—"

"No no, please. Just call me Guin. I... Kinda hate to be a princess. Just, Guin." Guinevere sticks out her tongue.

"Ehehe. Alright, Guin. I'm Esmeralda. You can call me Esme. An astologer." She grins. She look way too young to be an astologer. Perhaps, it's talent?

"Yeah, I know. That's why you are here, right? Professor Gord says that there's an astrologer who would willing to tell our future. I'm pretty surprise to see a young and beautiful astrologer. I thought it's going to be an old, saggy woman." Guinevere chuckles. Esmeralda just laugh it off. It seems funny to her. Yeah, it's been a few years since she travel all across the Lawn Of Dawn, she would encounter all sort of this thought.

"It's okay. Now, you want to know your future?" She shows her palm, making Guinevere confuse.

"Em, what I suppose to do?" Guinever looks on her palm. Nothing.

"No silly, put your hands on mine. I'm going to read it." Esmeralda stilk waiting for Guinevere's arm. Then, withour further a do, Guinevere places it. Esmeralda closes her eyes.

A few minutes then, she then still keeping her eyes shut. Guinevere was about to say something but then she saw a tears coming from her eyes.

"Esme? What's wrong?"
