Chapter 13: The Princess of the Kingdom

"Hello, my name is Elle Carter. I'm the daughter of Lord Anderson, the princess of this country, you can call me Elle, may I ask you—" Princess Elle asked politely, lifting the hem of her skirt

"Hello, Your Royal Highness the Princess. I am Qin Xun, a traveler, and my partner and I will accompany you to the royal capital for the rest of the journey," Qin Xun bowed deeply and replied politely

"Traveler?"

"Yes, my companion and I are both travelers from Karn Village, on our way to the royal capital, and we happened to find your guards in a bitter battle, so we helped repel the lizardmen army attacking you."

"Is that so, traveler from Karn Village? But I still want to thank you for your help, otherwise I am afraid that I would not have been able to return to the royal capital alive."

"Then please bear with your Royal Highness the Princess, our carriage is not far away, and then please wait here for a while, and I will move the carriage here." In my opinion, there is no way for your carriage to be used anymore."

"Your Excellency Qin Xun is right, our carriage has been damaged in the battle just now, and if we delay the time, I am afraid that there will be more and more dangers when night falls," said the guard on the side

"Now it's just like this, then we'll wait for you here first, we need to rush to the royal capital before dark" Princess Elle nodded to Qin Xun and said

After 5 minutes

"Eh, big brother, is this what you call Her Royal Highness the Princess? It's so beautiful! Yui poked her head out of the window and said with a look of admiration

"It's really beautiful!" Hibiscus also chimed in

"You kid, it's not shallow," Uncle Mu said jokingly on the side

"Okay, you all give me a little serious, this is Her Royal Highness the Princess!" Qin Xun said to the inside of the carriage

"It's rare to see you kid look so serious, um~ not quite right" Uncle Mu looked at Qin Xun with an obscene expression

"Hello Her Royal Highness Princess, please get in the car, don't pay attention to them, they are like this" Qin Xun and the guards helped Princess Elle to the car

"Is it really okay?" said Princess Ellie, observing the people in the carriage with some caution

"Now, it seems that there is only one way. His Excellency Qin Xun had helped us fight off those lizardmen just now, and as long as we paid enough money, there shouldn't be any major problems," the guard said

"Money?" Princess Elle sat down in a corner of the carriage and kept a certain distance from Yui and the others, observing everything around her

"Don't be nervous, Your Highness Princess, we're all good people," Yui said, walking forward

The princess subconsciously leaned back to look at Yui in front of her, but her stomach growled

"Eh, are you hungry?" Yui tilted her head and smiled at Princess Elle and asked, but Princess Elle blushed and lowered her head without speaking

"Now, let's eat this, Yui special three meiji," Yui said as she took out a square sandwich from her backpack and handed it to Princess Elle

"Huh? For me..."Princess Elle said as she looked at Yui with a puzzled expression

"Haha, of course, this sandwich was meant to be reserved for my brother but now I'm giving it to you," Yui grimaced, then turned back to her place

Princess Elle looked at the sandwich in her hand and took a tentative bite, "Ah~ It's so delicious, lettuce and tomato bring the fragrance of vegetables to the sandwich, and the rich sauce is accompanied by the fine pork belly that melts in your mouth, this taste is really wonderful" The princess praised while eating the sandwich, and soon the sandwich was eaten by the princess.

"Haha, eat slowly, if you want to eat, Yui still has it here," said Yui, wiping the sauce from the princess's mouth with a handkerchief

"It's worthy of a princess, she looks so good when you eat," Uncle Mu squinted his eyes and looked at the princess and said

'Bang'

Yui punched Uncle Mu in the face, and Uncle Mu fell backwards with a golden star

"You give me a little seriousness, Uncle Lewd," Yui said with a disdainful look on her face, and Elle smiled awkwardly as she watched what had just happened

"Then again, why did Her Royal Highness leave the royal capital?" Hibiscus asked

Elle didn't speak, because she didn't know how to speak, and she couldn't say that she had run out of the palace because of a quarrel with her father

"Did you quarrel with your family?" Yui asked curiously

"Eh???" Ellie looked up at Yui in surprise, was it so obvious? Elle thought silently in her mind

"If that's the case, it doesn't matter, after all, a place like the palace is not suitable for children at all," Yui said, kicking the chair next to her

"Speaking of Yui, I heard Qin Xun say that you were also a member of the royal family before," Uncle Mu suddenly looked at Yui and said, but the hibiscus on the side smacked Uncle Mu underneath, and Uncle Mu realized that he had said the wrong thing, but there was no way to take back what he said, so Uncle Mu looked at Yui apologetically

"Eh, is Yui too? Yui is the child of which duke? Ellie asked with a look of surprise

"It's nothing, it was a long time ago" Yui's eyes gradually dimmed, and she walked alone to the end of the carriage and looked at the scenery outside the car, the evening breeze gently ruffled Yui's hair, and the afterglow of the sunset ignited the sky, and the whole sky was so beautiful in the afterglow of the sunset, I still remember the last time I watched the sunset was on the balcony at home with my parents, at that time we were not forced to drift, at that time I did not learn magic, at that time we were so happy, at that time we were us....

Thinking of this, Yui couldn't help but feel a little lost, looking at the flocks of geese in the sky, and thinking about his former self, but what about now? Now I have my big brother by my side, as well as Hibiscus and Uncle Mu, although the two people other than Hibiscus are not very interesting, but they are Yui's important partners, and only I know what I have experienced, and only I can come out of the loss, because this is what my big brother gave Yui!

Yui secretly wiped away the tears hidden in the corners of her eyes, and smiled at the beautiful sunset

"Did anything unpleasant happen before?" said Princess Elle as she approached Yui

"It's nothing, let the past pass, haha, don't we still have the present?" Yui smiled at Ellie, two small shallow dimples leaking out of her cheeks

Elle didn't speak, the two looked at each other and smiled in the afterglow of the sunset looked so harmonious, maybe some things just don't need to be told and left to themselves, and the rest will be left to time, because time will smooth everything, although it will be very long and painful, but one day the memory will gradually fade, and the sad things will dissipate

"Then I said Yui, I'm sorry for what happened just now," Uncle Mu said apologetically as he walked out of the carriage

"It's okay, Yui didn't take it to heart," Yui said in a triumphant pose

"Hahaha, that's good," Uncle Mu said, scratching his head

"What are you talking about, it's so lively" Qin Xun also came to the back of the carriage and asked

Yui saw Qin Xun coming, so she rushed over and hugged Qin Xun and said, "Big brother, remember the Yui you handed over to Yui, Yui will never be unhappy because of before."

"Silly boy, did Uncle Mu make you angry again," Qin Xun said as he stroked Yui's forehead

"Not really... That..."Uncle Mu looked at Qin Xun in disguise

"I knew it was you!" Qin Xun grabbed Uncle Mu's ear and said

Looking at the noisy group of people in front of her, Princess Elle couldn't help laughing, what a strange group of people, I really envy them, Princess Elle thought silently in her heart

"Look! There's a lot of wall over there! Yui said, pointing to the tall wall that was faintly visible not far away

"Now, that's Gazhik, the king of the Valguna Kingdom!" Qin Xun let go of Uncle Mu on the side and said

"Looks like we're going to be there soon," Hibiscus said, closing the book, pushing his glasses, looking ahead

"yes... It's almost there..."Princess Elle looked at the vague wall in front of her with some disappointment, and fell silent

"It's okay, we'll be looking for Princess Elle often in the future," Yui said, taking Princess Elle's hand

"Really? That's a word! Princess Elle's eyes were full of energy again, and she flickered as she looked at Yui

"Sure, don't worry, Princess Ellie," Qin Xun also echoed on the side

Princess Elle looked up at Qin Xun and the others with a touching smile

"A word is a certainty...."
