Lioran Kingdooyal Palace
*slap*
I fell to the ground from the severity of the slap with a red cheek and eyes full of tears, it was a slap from a third kingdom warrior for an ordinary person this slap is as painful as a whip, and in an instant my cheek swelled in pain.
"How dare you bump into me, you *****!"
"Iman, don't be too harsh on her, she's your older sister."
I ignored the pain and raised my head with difficulty, so I could see my sister Iman, who is a year younger than me, screaming at me with a fierce face, and my older sister Elia, who looked as if she was worried about my safety, but the moment she knew that no one was looking at her, she looked at me also with a cold look, as if she was looking at an insect. And several palace servants were observing this scene from the corners of their eyes.
"But sister, you saw how she bumped into me, I can't forgive her for this rudeness" Iman
"You're right, sister, but she must not have intended to do that, it was just an accident," answered Elia, in a sweet voice, as usual.
(An accident? She clearly bumped into me) I thought angrily as I grabbed my swollen cheek to calm the pain a bit, although I knew that I was actually the one who was the victim in this plot, I couldn't help but bite my teeth and answer in a sad voice, "I'm sorry, sister, I wasn't well attentive"
I am already used to this treatment, since the day of that incident that caused the loss of my power and authority inside the palace, I became an outcast in the palace, not a day goes by without me being bullied by my sisters while my mother the Queen became cold to me as if i was her enemy, even the servants are neglecting me and don't listen to my orders anymore. Of course, I tried to fight back at first but I broke over time I couldn't even stand up anymore.
"Even this damned apology annoys me," Iman said angrily, raising her hands again to deliver another slap.
"No sister, don't forget the party is close, it'll be bad if she gets bruised, plus that person will ban the party too" Elia
"Ah! I forgot that, you're right," Iman said lowering her hands, then turned to me and said with a provocative expression, "I haven't told you yet, your ex-fiancé will attend the party too."
As soon as I heard that sentence my expression became intense, that person is the last creature I want to see at this party. (But why does he want to attend this party? I remember that he hates going to parties...He must have a reason to attend this one)
"Haha, do you still hate him that much?" Iman laughehe unwilling look on my face seemed to have extinguished her anger, so after some mumbling, they ignored me and continued their way after seeing their backs getting away, I also got off the ground (it seems that my knee is injured) I thought after I felt great pain attacking my knee when I tried to get up, ignoring the pain I continued my way, drenched in thought, and then suddenly, without realizing it, I stopped and looked toward the clouds and muttered in a low voice, "Fray..."

Iskar Citrada Palace
"Thank you, Fray, I thought I wouldn't be able to use My hand again." Elisa said with a grateful expression, moving her hand that she thought she had lost in different motions.
"Oh! It's okay," Fray replied, surprised by Elisa's expression and her gentle voice. He was used to Elisa's cold and indifferent expression. This is the first time he's seen a cute expression on her face.
Fray did not give much importance to this matter, but Elisa actually spent the time she was in the hospital suffering from severe depression due to the loss of her hand. For a knight losing his hand is equivalent to losing his life, the knight in general depends on his hands to fight, losing one of them means losing his fighting ability. Any warrior, regardless of his gender or race, would rather lose his life than lose his fighting ability. This is what made Elisa so grateful.
"Did you find this strange bed in that place?" Elisa asked as she looked toward the medical bed
"No. I invented it using old knowledge that was in that place." Fray
"Ah! It is a very useful tool. Using it we will be able to save many members of the Prada family" Elisa.
"Yeah, I think so," Fray
"By the way, Fray, did you kill that monster?" Elisa suddenly asked with a serious expressioctually, Elisa did not want to ask annoying questions about what happened in that place. Elisa still remembers the appearance of that terrifying aura, even though she was unable to watch the entire battle, she has a good idea of ??what happened there. But she must know what happened to that monster that killed so many of her knights.
"Yes, he's dead," Fray said in a cold voice
"Thank you. it must have been hard for you to get us out of that forest alive," said Elisa with a grateful expression again.
Elisa understand very well the difficulty of what Fray did, as he had to travel a huge distance to get out of a forest full of powerful monsters, carrying dozens of wounded knights and being pursued by the army of the King of Monsters. In fact, Elisa had always thought that Fray would not hesitate to abandon them if they had an incident like this but now she feels ashamed of herself for having such thought. With these thoughts, Elisa rose from her seat, stepped in front of Fray and got down on one knee.
"!!" Fray is surprised by Elisa's actions but realizes what she wants to do.
"..." Without saying anything, Elisa took her sword and presented it to Fray with both her handray took the sword from Elisa's hands, "Elisa Prada, I accept your loyalty," said Fray as he performed the ceremony.
A knight's ultimate goal is to find a master to serve. And finally, Elisa found a master worthy of her loyalty.
