Three days later and like what Master Kaja told her, Kenshi didn't really visit her anymore. And so today, she is hoping to see him at a puppet show Miranda told her about.

Mizuko was told that Kenshi likes the puppet shows that are being held at the plaza every Saturday. She would not assume a demon would be fond of something like that. Well, this will be the first time she will see for real what those shows are all about.

As she walks to the plaza, she suddenly bumped into someone. She quickly apologizes but when she raised her head, her eyes widened. It was that man who introduced himself to her as Rex!

She was about to run away when Rex grabbed her wrist. This had her heart pounding.

    After the puppet show, Mizuko walked awkwardly besides Kenshi, nibbling her lip as she wants to say something but just can't bring herself to say things. She is about to go damn crazy.Before meeting Kenshi, she used to always think when watching a movie how leading girls just suddenly act like someone else around the guys they like. Leading girls would act shy, sweet and vulnerable when they find out they have feelings for the leading guy. Mizuko never understood those until now that she is with Kenshi. She has that shyness and she's embarrassed for reasons she can't understand. Was it for crying last night? For hurting him or for being afraid of him?"Are you heading straight back to the shop or are you out to find more about the King?" Kenshi asked her. This makes her a little less awkward since he started the talk."I-uh

    In the middle of the night, when barely any human walk through alleys, Miranda decided to go out and talk to Kenshi. When she is out of the shop, she jolted seeing master Kaja's blank face."Where do you think you are headed, Miranda?" The old man raises a brow at her."I am meeting someone, master." She confidently answers. "What are you doing outside at this hour?""Waiting for a reply," says master Kaja, gazing at the sky with squinted eyes. "Who are you meeting so late at night?""Someone who confessed his love for—""That's a lie." Master Kaja interrupted her. "You want to meet with his highness, eh? I can smell it from you! The desire to speak with our carefree prince!"Miranda rolled her eyes. It is annoying when Master Kaja see through her lies every time. The old man is hard to lie to but then wh

    While running an errand, Mizuko keeps wondering about the red spider lily. Her only suspect is Kenshi and if it's him, why would he send her that kind of flower? Does he want her dead?Mizuko clicks her tongue, swinging her empty basket as she walks down the pavement. She wasn't paying attention up ahead since her mind was clouded with thoughts of the spider lily. When she accidentally bumped into someone that made her fall down, her butt on the ground."My apologies, miss." The man whom she bumped to reached out his hand for her.Because of the sun, she could not trace the man's face and to be fooled by Rex the other time, she would not fall for someone's trick again. So, she ignored his hand and stand up on her own, brushing the dust off her clothes."I

    "I wonder why you would give her a red spider lily, my lord." Zed sat on his shoulder. "Are you playing around or were you serious? Because it's not nice to play with someone's feelings.""I am always playful," Kenshi told him, "but I'm serious too.""Woah!" Zed floats in front of him, waving his fluffy hands to stop him. "You can't fall in love with a hybrid, my lord! The light! You are not even supposed to be near any of them, useless humans!""Now, now, my little friend. They're humans, they've no great strength like us, they don't change into a hideous beast and they use magic, potions and spells but they're not really useless, Zed. Some humans know how to care, they laugh at the hardest times and they smile.""Your subjects smile, my Lord. We are more like the humans too.""See? We are the same creatures.""If you say so, my Lord." Zed wouldn't want to argue more about it. "But why go home so suddenly? We're you serious about that?"

    It has been two days since Kenshi left and two days since Mizuko has started her training with Miranda every after their shop closes.

    Just after Kenshi's discussion with his father he had realized something. It has made the corners of his mouth curved into an evil grin. Who would have thought that giving Mizuko the magical bow could benefit him this much? His freedom and the people's fear with his title can crumble."What are you grinning about, Zhemier?" Pixie asked, looking at him with her brows drawn together."What would you do if I die so suddenly? Would you cry, Mira?""What absurdness are you blabbering about? We all know how strong and capable you are! And no! I would not cry one bit!""Is that so?" Kenshi chuckles. "What if I told you that I had given a human something that could really hurt me."Pixie stopped walking and squinted her eyes at h

Unfortunately today, Blue can’t come nor can Miranda because she has a meeting to attend with all the other witches.It has been a while since they started practicing but she’s still bad at it. She can aim when steady but when her target is moving, she isn’t able to hit it, well, not yet.“He should have just given me an ordinary one,” Mizuko mumbles, sitting on the ground full of leaves. She heavily sighed looking at her beautiful bow. “Why is it so difficult to do it?”Three times, she almost summon an arrow three times but as it assembles and glow, it enchants her and she loses focus. The arrow would snap and fades like smoke. She would stomp her foot, and cry about losing it. Miranda and Blue would then tell her it’s okay but she knows it’s not okay. Kenshi will sure laugh at her when he sees how she has been.

    At the east side of Pinress the borderland, Nozumo’s gaze wanders around, looking for the sign the rightful King of Hikari had left him. Surprisingly, instead of a sign, the prince had shown himself and he had fallen into his knees.“Your highness,” he greets, not daring to look at him. “It is dangerous for you to be out here meeting a spy like me. You could’ve left a sign, your highness.”“Kenshi had found my sister and I have the mage’s news. He came to my sister, she sensed her energy.”“I have seen the mage’s death but forgive me for I could not recognize your sister, her highness.

They've really not talk so much about them these days."I know this is a bit sudden but, I would like to ask for your time tonight."Keisuke couldn't look straight in Blue's eyes.

Why did I have to run away from him again? It's embarrassing!" She groans, her hands on her face and pulling them down."Love problems?" Kozuko who was wiping his blade asked her. She then nodded.

It made her gulped. "You must remember our promise.""I am very well aware, your highness.""Good. Stay away from my brother as it is good for the both of you." Before Pixie leaves, he wanted to remind Mizuko of their promise. "You are not to tell brother about you and him. Nor is anybody allowed to tell him. If he knows, it's your life's cost.""What?"

She has all the ingredients now but she feels like it has no use anymore. There's no way she'd let Kenshi hear the truth from someone else but her.
