Luth decided that they should visit the castle first before giving kurumi a tour around the kingdom, felyna went home first and will meet up with the others later on

"This place, is big.. no wonder why outsiders would think this place is sealed inside that forest, this kingdom is so big, probably as big as the kingdom amblecrown" kurumi talk about what she saw around and what luth tells him about the place

The land of drunitia has farmlands, a river and a big lake, the land is big enough to accommodate every citizen, farmlands big enough to feed everyone.

"Well yah, even I was surprised when I step in this place for the first time, well maybe that's because I was stuck inside the other realm where I can't really go anywhere except the academy and the house" luth smiles while walking

The people around them seems happy living in drunitia, the economy is great as well, it's all thank to the queen who keeps working for the future of drunitia, as luth said earlier

As they arrive at the castle gates, kurumi is surprise that the castle is very simple, it's still larger than the establishments in town but, she's expecting something as grand as the amblecrown's castle

As they walk in many guards or different races, majority are humans and drunitians, looks at the two as they found themselves in the Queen's so called working room as luth jokingly said before they went in

Luth opened the door and .. well... What they see is..

The Queen Ariana Hornraven is lying at the ground probably exhauseted to what she was doing with a lot of paper stack together in the table and in the ground..

"Eh?" Kurumi is confuse to what she saw...

"What are you doing Aria?" Luth casually called the queen by her nickname

Ariana quickly stood up and look at luth "wah!? Luth!?" She shouts as she quickly fixes her self

"W-what happen here?" Luth walks in and moves some of the papers so that they have a place to sit in

"Well... As usual ..paper works.." Ariana laughs while scratching her head "it's keeps piling up..."

Kurumi's vision of the queen was broken, she imagine her as this amazing being,very charismatic,and a smart person..

Well she may be right but now the only thing she's seeing is a overwork office worker with a lot of paper works to sign

"You should take a break sometimes you know..or maybe have someone who can help with all this crap.." luth said as he take one of the papers and Read it

"I know... I should be finish after a week and I'll be free to rest..." Ariana sighed and look at kurumi "you must be miss kurumi, I've heard things about you"

"Y-yes.. I'm kurumi" kurumi looks at the queen...

" Miss kurumi, why do you wish to join us?" Ariana asked her..

"At first I believe to all what they say about the demons and all.. but then.. once I unlock my special ability and saw luth's background.. it makes me curious... Why does the being they called demons are called drunitians... And so I ask luth about it... Wanting to know the answer.. " kurumi then look straight to the Queen's eyes "it's probably my curiosity "

"Curiosity huh?" Ariana knows that kurumi up isn't lying.. "so what do you want to gain?"

"To know the truth" kurumi answered "to know what's the real reason why the others called drunitian demons..."

"I see, well then I'm looking forward working with you, I also want to know why" Ariana offers a hand shake, kurumi shake the Queen's hands and smiles

"Hehehehehe..." The queen then giggles "since you are now in our Ally you should help me with the paper works" Arian make kurumi sit at on the couch and put piles of paper in front of her

"Eh?" Kurumi look confuse and thought... Did she just ask me to do all of this!!??

"You too luth! You should help me with my job!"

Luth sighed "fine...." Luth can't say no to Ariana

And so luth and kurumi was forced to help the queen with her paper works for the whole day
