Reborn princess: I will change my ill-fate - 187 chapter
” Earlier Sir Peter came to inform you and saw you sleeping well, so he ordered to not to disturb her highness sleep and went back to continue his work. As for the preparations, they were all completed. Princess, how about we help you in dressing up for the journey? ” One among the maids answered and explained everything in one go.
Probably she felt Aeinshia might ask many questions later, so she gave the jest of all events at once and stood there for further orders.
Aeinshia smiled back warmly and nodded her head. It’s pretty normal to seek assistance while dressing up in back those days and being born as a Royal, it is their privilege to accept assistance from the maids and servants, so Aeinshia didn’t have any uncomfortableness to allow them to help her, as she got used to it since childhood.
In no less than 30 minutes, Aeinshia came out, dressing herself prettily like a princess for real and set foot outside the palace. She could recognise almost every guard and knight out there, in front of her, who were standing there in rows and accordingly, waiting for commands they need to follow next. However, Peter is nowhere in sight, but, to her surprise, she saw sana among the guards.
A big smile replaced on her face, forgetting about all her worries for a second, as she rushed towards Sana. Freely letting her arms to wrap around Sana’s neck, Aeinshia gave her a warm and friendly hug, as she told, ” I am glad that you are fine. I really feel sorry for risking all of your lives, ” Aeinshia felt bad for risking others lives along with her, so she sincerely apologized to Sana.
Sana smiled back, and she too returned the hug, ” Dear princess, you are like my sister, so how can I let any harm reach any near my younger sister? Don’t think too much, it’s our duty to protect you and we are obligued to complete our tasks. We are your shields, so you don’t have to feel sorry for us. Instead, we wish you stay safe and sound, ” Sana tried to explain herself, as she thought Aeinshia is blaming herself and this can’t be continued. After all, no matter what, its their job at the end of the day and if they were told to die, then they got no say in it and could only follow, of course, it’s not that there is any such Royal here, who will give away such harsh orders without proper thinking.
Aeinshia didn’t whine anymore and broke free from the hug, turning around she peeked around her surroundings to get a glance of either George or Oliver. However, they were no where to be seen.
” As you know princess, those both were heavy injured and they can’t continue long journey’s. So it is advisable for them to recuperate here, in cherry blossom palace for atleast a month or two and return back, ” Sana patiently explained to Aeinshia, she could see worry lacing in Aeinshia’s eyes, as she spoke about her peers.
Aeinshia didn’t wish to continue this topic any further, as the guilty and sorry feeling tripping inside her heart rose to another level. So she tried to divert herself, ” Where is Sir Peter? ” She enquired about his whereabouts.
Unlike before, she didn’t glance around, as she is sure, that her eyes can’t mistake the absence of his power radiating aura. Whenever Peter gets into work mode, his aura changes to a powerful and intimidating aura from a cheerful side. Its like he is a different person. So it’s impossible for her to go without noticing his presence.
A guard came up and responded to Aeinshia’s questions. Mostly, the whereabouts of knights were kept secret and Peter isn’t just a nobody to brag about where he will be going to. So, only a very few know about his current location.
” Your highness, ” The guard bowed, and stopped before continuing, as he is waiting for her further orders to continue or not.
Aeinshia nodded her head, Indirectly ordering him to continue his stance.
The guard raised his head, and then continued, ” Your highness, Sir Peter went for his regular inspection and meanwhile, on our way back, a news report was received earlier that, there were few suspects residing inside the city. Along with them, few suspicious people were also arrested. So sir Peter is busy in dealing with them and questioning them currently. He sent me here to inform you the reason for the late caused now, ” He explained to Aeinshia, to which she waved her hand, telling him to join back along with the other guards.
‘ I guess it takes time then, ‘ Aeinshia mumbled within herself. Walking towards the high end, she faced all the guards and knights gathered there.
” We are postponing the trip by 2 hours. Everyone be back in time, ” She ordered, to which everyone replied with an ‘understood’ word in unison and bowed to her.
Soon all the guards and knights gathered there began to disperse and not even two minutes later, the empty ground came into clear view of her eyes.
She didn’t notice it earlier with many people here, now that she had further look into it, the cherry blossom palace grounds are also in comparable with imperial Palace grounds in terms of size. The equipment used in trainings are also not in any means of sub-par compared to capital and were in fact, better in quality.
She saw many people today, but something felt amiss. Like, she is missing the main important person of the show. She gave a further thought and it immediately ringed a bell.
‘ Yes, it’s uncle Milo, no should I be calling him grandpa Milo?’ Aeinshia thought inside her heart, as she proceeded towards the beautiful garden of the cherry blossom palace. Probably there aren’t much cherry blossoms left inside the garden now.
Yes, your guess is correct, they named the palace after the name of the cherry blossoms garden.
Only after short time, Milo’s face came into her sight. He was there, sitting on a bench, looking into the sky. There was a lonely expression on his face, which can’t go unnoticed by anyone.
Tsk~ tsk~ clicking her tongue, she made her way to sit next to Milo, ” If you miss me so much and crying at a corner, you should have just come to bid bye to me grandpa, ” As she told, she sat next to him.
A crease formed over Milo’s face, the next second, his crafty hands landed on her ears, twisting them, as a result, Aeinshia squirmed in pain.
” Ah~ ah~ old man, you are using alot of your strength. It hurts, now leave me, ” Aeinshia pouted, while tears welled up in her eyes.
Milo got stupified instantly, seeing tears in her eyes, ” You have become even more delicate in these past years. What? Aren’t you training? And didn’t I tell you to not to call me grandpa? ” He questioned her back and let go of her ear,
Oof~ Aeinshia puffed up her cheeks, while a glare landed on Milo, telling her she is angry because of his rash actions.
” Come on. How can both my mom and I address the same person as uncle? Since my mom used to call you uncle, then isn’t it only right for me to call you grandpa. You really are lacking of minimum common sense. Yeah!! It’s time for you to agree, that you aren’t young anymore, ” Aeinshia retorted back and raised her voice a little.
Milo turned his face to face her, ” Young lass, are you plotting against me, by slimming my chances of marriage proposals? You really are wicked, huh? ” Milo asked her, and still continued to maintain eye contact with her.
Tsk~ Aeinshia again clicked her tongue.
