2024-10-29 19:42:56Oh? Max? You've got the invitation too?" Cecilia took a seat beside him. She looks a bit surprised to see max in this small white wall room.
There are only three white leather couches and one oval wooden table." Yeah. An old woman, with thick glasses, gave it to me."
"Eh, don't be so rude! She is the author of this story. Wintersnow-nim. Besides, she hasn't reach thirty yet."
Max rolled his eyes, "I'm just trying to be honest."
"Moreover, I wonder why did she invite us? Is there something wrong?"
"Maybe she got any writer's block or something."
Cecilia gasped, "Oh! What if she will make an announcement about her hiatus?"
Max's eyes widen as big as a saucer. He draws his sword with gritted teeth. Of course, he can't let it slide. How could that heartless author will announce that news when he hasn't confessed his feeling yet? "She better not."
"Move, Masked Man. You can't sit beside an unmarried woman."
"Father! It's good to see you again!" Cecilia rose from her chair and clasped her hand.
Armano casually take a seat between this couple. "Yes, My Dear. I've got an invitation for a strange woman who keep calling me as 'Daddy.'"
Cecilia giggled, "I can blame her, though. You are the best father in the world!"
"Hmm, I think that's not what she meant to." Max snort softly. "But, I think everyone is to come. There are only three chairs here."
At the same time, a small white paper fall to Cecilia's lap. "Wah! It's like a magic!"
"There is something written on it." Armano look at the paper with curiously gaze.
"Then, I will read it to you," She cleared her throat before start reading. "'Hello everyone, Wintersnow is here! Thank you for coming to this small gathering despite your tight schedule. First, I want to say thank you for all the readers who support this story until this 50th chapters!'"
"Wait, we got a reader? Someone DID read this story?" Max asked while his eyebrow raised a bit. "I never know about it."
"So do I." Armano put his palm to the chin.
"'I'm feeling so grateful to anyone who paid this story! Thank you so much for supporting this story. I'm so touched! Then, I will try my best to served you a story with better quality. '"
"You might as well lend her some money, Cecilia. Look like this Wintersnow faced some financial trouble." Max snickered while Armano nodded in agreement.
"It is not a big deal for a powerful family like Lancia."
"'Special shoutout for every reader who vote this story with these precious gems.
For Fernando Villasista, Nicole Ford, Mirto Miltiadou, Kristina Sakalauskaite, Phang Lee Gaik, Saldytuvanera, Suzzane, Kristina S., Liam Willow, Rift Raft, and Elaine Carlin. Thank you ever so much for everything. I am nothing without your support.'"
Max tilted his head." I never thought that we got so many supports from everyone. Seems like Elaine Carline gave us so many gems. I hope she didn't regret it."
"You are right. Since the gems are so valuable. Even Lancia's wealth can't manage to buy any. However, the competition between 2nd and 3rd place were so tight." Armano crossed his arms and nodded.
"Woah! I never expected that you two will get along." Cecilia smiling warmly.
"Of course, no."
"It is not like that."
Cecilia can't hide her excitement, "And speak the same thing at the same times! Amazing."
Armano and Max exchanging a glance before look at Cecilia again. Give her a sign to continue to read the paper.
But, Cecilia shrugged. "It's done."
"Wait, if I'm not mistaken, she mentioned that there is a deadly pandemic spreading in her area. The government asked every citizen to quarantine."
"Pandemic? Like Cadia?" Cecilia seems panicked.
"She called it as Corona or something. This disease attacked our respiratory system. It's quite big deal. There are so many people dying because of this."
Cecilia's eyes gotten moist. "Oh my! I hope everyone is doing well. Please stay safe and healthy, dear our reader! We should be using mask as a protection. And avoid the crowds to minimize the virus spreads."
Armano nodded, "Just like Doctor Hambbell once said, vitamins are playing an important roles in our body. So, please take some."
"More importantly, wash your hands too. Because every disease came from food that eaten with dirty hand. Be careful and stay healthy."
"Hmm, I want to do something, though." Cecilia pouted.
But a second later, another paper come to her lap. "Oh! It's from Wintersnow-nim again. She wrote, 'I will open QuestionAndAnswer room at the next special chapter. So, if the readers has something to ask. Please do not hesitate to write one. I will try my best to answer.'"
"Hmm, that's a nice idea. I should ask her about the future." Max rub his chin with his index finger.
"Hey, you can't ask for a spoiler, Max! Maybe we should be doing some fan service like this." She said, while crossed her thumb and index finger together.
"What is this?" Her father asks in confusion.
"It shaped like a heart, Father. Maybe, I can do nothing for this pandemic. But, I hope this heart finger can help you to smile through these hard days. Don't worry everyone! Everything will be okay in the end. Keep fighting!"
"You are right, Chili! These storm will pass too! And we can see the rainbow again."
Armano narrowed his brows,"You called my daughter what?"
"Isn't it cute, Father?"
"Cute???" Then Armano draw his sword and face the masked man with disgusted eyes. "You made those silly nicknames to my beloved daughter? Over my dead body!"
Max smirked and took a step back. Fighting with the Grim Reaper of the Battlefield seem interesting. But, when he noticed Cecilia's face pale, he changed his mind, "Its a nice idea. But, I think I should go. There are so many things to do."
Armano gritted his teeth when he saw that masked man disappeared into the mist.
"Father, don't be like that. He likes to playing around."
"I hope so." He said after put his sword back. "Honestly, I want to spend more time with you. But, Hambbel must be waiting for me."
"It is okay, Father. Please be careful and don't work too hard."
They hug for a moment before Armano left this room.
Max reappeared again and said, "He is indeed a scary man. Anyway, there is something happened on the island. You should go now."
"Ah, wait! We should say goodbye for the readers."
"Yes, you are right. And we should tell them that next chapter is going to be the normal one."
"Then, see you at the next special chapter!" Cecilia waving her hands to every direction with bright smile.
Max flicked his hand and both of them disappear from the sight.

"Young Miss, you are working hard today." Mary said while she gave a towel for Cecilia who already finished her sword training.A week passed after her first training was began. Still, Theo only taught her how to swing that long sword."It is for your durability, Young Miss." He said when Cecilia asked him to give her another lessons. "You have to feel it. As if the sword is a part of your body."But, it makes her feel bored to swing the sword for four hours."Oh, Young Miss. I need to inform you something." Theo said while she will leave the ground.

"So, what do you want to talk about? Please make it quick because I'm busy." Cecilia said while both of them were in the library. She wants to reply her father's letter about the banquet in the palace. "Don't be so cold to me, Niece. You are really broke this old man's heart!" Cecilia sighed heavily. After what happened in the past, how could Grant say something irresponsible like that. However, as if he can read her mind, he said, "Consider it as my token of apology after the previous incident. I will lend my power to help your projects." Cecilia raised her brows. Even it was a good idea, but she doubts that Grant didn't ask something in return. Is he want to trade it with Kaleela's information? "Don't worry, I'll go home after finish your job. Seem I already left Hagrav for a long time. And, what do you say?"

Armano punched his desk when heard that news. The Cadia Kingdom is under attack by the citizen who burned in rage.As the results of that brutally coup, Gideon, the king, beheaded and all of the royal family members were missing. No one know, but they must be facing something worse than the death.The Nobles ran away and seeking the protection to the nearest kingdom. Not to mention, almost half of them come to Atrazal's Empire asking for justice."This is impossible!" Armano snapped and squeezed the reports from the spies he hired.The citizens of Cadia who never have any military experience nor courage after being abused from their tyrant king, can wipe out every experienced royal knights in just one night.Armano frowned when he realizes that the leader of the rebellion is the eldest son of a chief who living on the poorest district on that kingdom."Then, how cou

It is just another ordinary hot days in South Island. Cecilia walked to the building site when several men are busy to painting the walls. The ranch resort is almost done. Mary, who walked behind her, said, "It's like a magic. How come they can build those building in the very short time period?" Cecilia nodded, "I thought so." Of course, Grant is behind of this. When the nights came, he's doing his job to enhance the building time and matched it using the draft of her drawing. So just one week after the arrival of the builders, everything is almost done.

"Is this true?" Max read the report with narrowed brows. Hugo shrugged and writing something in the paper. "Yes. That crown prince is really something else." "I didn't expect him to do this. Spreading the rumor to the citizen, supplying countless weapon to perform a coup, and secretly help their rebellion. He's just like his tyrant father." "You have the same father with him." "But I'm never doing something underhanded like this." Hugo snickered. "Really?" "If I became Duke Lancia, I'll be angry. I mean, his original plan was to avoid the bloodshed, right?" "Actually, Duke was angry. But, it is because of someone meddling in his business. However, the Emperor already summoned him to the palace because Cadia is already conquered." Hugo said with a faint smile. Max massaging his temple as if he got a headache."I think our no

“It’s done. Young Miss, you can open your eyes, now.” Mary’s voice sound like she was excited. More excited than the bride-to-be. Cecilia saw her reflection in the mirror. She was smiling when said, “Thank you, Mary. I like this! You are doing a great job. Like usual.” “I can’t believe that you will be married this sooner! Young Miss, please be happy forever!” The purple-eyed girl takes Mary’s trembled hand, “Thank you, Mary. For everything. I hope you will be happy too.” But, the poor maids can’t answer because she tried her best to hold her tears. Cecilia handed her a silk white handkerchief with a small giggle, “Don’t cry.

Winter almost left from the Empire. Even tough the sun shines brightly, it didn't mean that it's not cold!The snow still falling from the cloudy sky and everybody still wears long coat when they were outside.Cecilia, takes a sip of her tea in guild's office. Hugo was reading the monthly report, but he can't help to asked her, “It's so rare to see you here, Young Miss. For past three months, Boss and you always go to Icicle every day. Did something happen?”“I don't know. Max told me to rest for this week.”Hugo raised his brow, “Rest?”“But, he wants to have a date with me after he back from there.”“My, he is so weird.

Max almost threw his dagger to Desmond. But, Cecilia stop his movement by holding his hand tightly.With a firm voice, she said, “How can you say something stupid like that in front of my husband?”Cecilia's purple eyes look so intimidating. It never crossed in Max's mind that his little, cute fiancé can act like a brave yet sexy woman like this.“Something stupid?” Desmond knitted his brows before he started laughing. “HAHAHA! My, my. It's seemed you are misunderstanding, Kitten. I'm not into a married woman with acne in her face. In short, you are not my type.”Cecilia didn't drop her guard.
