For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

Chapter 10



Chapter 10

Everly landed lightly like a bird's feather, the mansion wasn't that far, not to mention that Everly is quite fast, enough to compete with racing horses and actually win with no much effort.

It could be because they were busy having fun here and there, no one noticed Everly appearing out of nowhere. The joyful cheers, the lively chatters, the sounds of fireworks, and the loud waves of laughter. All blended together in her ears, caused her heart to squeeze a bit.

Everly wandered through the streets, 6 out of 10 people were wearing strange customs. She remembered that Henry Raj told her about how they are dressing like ghosts and monsters. Mentioning Henry Raj, the poor guy was held captive by Lennox, the latter commanded him to hold a glass of water. If a drop fell from it he is as good as dead, and to be honest, a direct threat from Lennox is in another level of danger, than failing to follow the orders of the Emperor.

Everly walked for a while when suddenly someone called from behind.

"Excuse me! the girl with the sword ".

The one who called was a kid with a messy hairstyle and a green gashed shirt. While the green kid was catching his breath, two kids in bizarre attire also arrived. One with a black dress and a big strange hat, the other in a long coat and two paper horns at the top of his head.

The green boy was blushing to the extent that his ears looked like two cherries.

He said in an Ambivalent tone: "emm.... do you..... do you mind telling me your name?".

Everly stared at him with confusion and said nothing. when the green boy noticed her expression he quickly explained:" it's just that it's the first time I see you around, I really do not mean harm".

The girl in black smacked the green boy on the head, she said scolding him:" you idiot. You should first introduce yourself, before asking other people's names ".

The girl stood next to the boy, she said lively:" it's nice to meet, I am Della. This idiot here is Hugo, and the one behind is Clarence".

Everly greeted them with a nod, she softly said:" nice to meet you too, I am Everly ".

Hugo blushed, even more, he could not say anything unless he stuttered. And before he would say anything embarrassing, Clarence quickly asked:" you are not from here Everly, are you? ".

Everly shook her head: "no I am not, I came here with a friend ".

She had just finished speaking when Della suddenly cried:" waah, are these Red velvet cakes ?!!".

Hearing Della, both of the boys poked their heads in the basket Everly was carrying. They looked like three cats staring at a golden fish in its fishbowl. Everly somehow felt that they are not having any ill intentions, thus she offered them to have some of the cakes and sweets.

Della:" is it really fine? Won't your family be upset?".

Everly shook her head a couple of times, she said smiling:" it's okay, they are mine".

Seeing Everlys' delightful smile, Hugo could no more bear it. Taken by the moment, he shouted: "miss angel, would you please go out with me!!!!!".

Now that he had brought shame on them, Della hit him hard on the head. Hugo even saw some stars floating around him. Yet, Everly -with her current IQ- could not understand what he meant, she just tilted her head with a puzzled expression. Della desperately tried to cover for her friend's stupid acts.

Della: "haha.... forget about him. And tell me, Everly, where did you get these delicious cakes from?".

Everly pointed in the direction of the Alphonsus mansion, saying:" from the big house there".

By the moment they realized where Everly was pointing at, their faces stiffened instantly.

"You went to the Earl Alphonsus mansion?!!".

Both Della and Clarence almost dropped their jaws, while Hugo still feeling dizzy and couldn't cope with the conversation. Della began flipping Everly's head, checking her out.

She said worriedly, rather surprised:" and you are okay, did you get hurt somewhere?".

Everly: "is that wrong?".

Clarence:" it's not like that..... we heard that the crown prince is visiting the Alphonsus. And truly, wherever he goes someone will die".

Della irritated:" hmph if someone is going to die, I hope it will be that Ade-something, she deserves to be burned alive ".

Everly: "why? Is she a bad person?".

Clarence:" mom says she is a bitch ".

Everly said scolding: "hey, that's a bad word".

Clarence:" it can't be helped, she is with a different guy every time I see her. And some uncles said that they saw her in those adult places ".

Della:" it doesn't matter, both the crown prince and that woman are bad people ".

At that moment, Hugo regained his conscience. He was highly frustrated, 'cause what Della did. But again he turned all-red the moment his gaze met with Everlys' emerald eyes.

Hugo bowed to Everly 90, he said loudly: "miss angel, please go out with me!!".

The reason why he kept calling her 'angel' was obviously because he saw her when she first arrived in the city. He told his friends that he fell in love with a beautiful angel in white (Everly wore the imperial knight's uniform, which is mostly white). Surely they did not believe him, but when he saw her again wandering around, Hugo chased her to confess his feelings. And to prevent him from doing something he will 100% regret after few years, his very good friends decided to follow him and protect his dignity.

I mean, you shouldn't confess to someone you didn't even meet, let alone that person being fishy and fell from the sky.

This time it was Clarence who interfered, he punched Hugo in the face, that he wouldn't speak anymore, however, Hugo kept talking, saying:" I will treat you right".

Why is he so persistent!

Clarence punched him again hardly and he passed out.

"Go where?" Everly asked.

The first time, Everly couldn't understand anything. But this time she grabbed a piece of the puzzle, now these good friends gotta forcefully fit this piece somewhere.

Della: "go.... go with us!! You know, to collect candies and sweets from the neighborhood".

Della forced a smile on her face while praying to god that this loosey lie will play on her. Luckily, Everly is one hell of a stupid zombie, she started sparkling and nodding continuously.

But suddenly her movements came to a halt, she hesitated before she said:" do you mind if I bring a friend along?".

Della:" of course not, the more the merrier. We will need to take care of this brainless Hugo, so why don't you get your friend then we will meet here after an hour?".

Everly smiled serenely, and bid them farewell.
