The Great Queen And The Twin Dragon Sword 19 Hemora Kingdom

After Harrahina's condition stables, Iore told the two men that he'll stay to watch her. They offers to replace him later but he refused because of only he who knew the real reason why Harrahina's body is weak.

He has to avoid the possibility that one of them founds out about Harrahina's true ident.i.ty... He put up a spell into her body to hide her true presence as the Great Queen. He put so much effort to keep the Queen not to be found.

It seems like, the Queen sense that something big to happen soon.

Leonard and Zen now left to take a rest and tomorrow, they will head to meet the Hemora King. Before closing the door, Leonard gives a worry glance at the girl and Iore caught that look, he smirked.

Iore wanted the two men to leave now for him to send Harrah to the Guardians dimensions where Suzaku could heal her himself.

The next morning...

The sunrise is blinding her. Harrah tilted her head into the side to search where the light came from. She saw Iore sleeping in a chair near her bed. Did he watch her all night? She smiled.

Harrah sits up from the bed and went down. She tiptoed not to disturb the shaman from sleeping. Harrah opens the curtains and takes a peek outside. She was mesmerized for the beauty it shows. Hemora City is indeed beautiful.

Harrah steps out to the terrace and wanders her eyes throughout the city.

The castle is indeed more dazzling at daytime. She stood proudly beautiful. How pity to destroy it one day. The castle standing on top of a hill, completely looking down the whole city, and behind it is a lake and was surrounded by trees... And so, by destroying it one day would not harm the city itself.

"My Queen," Iore call out her.

"Did I wake you up?" she asked.

"No. My neck hurting so I turn to my other side when I noticed you are gone from the bed." He ma.s.saged his neck then said, "am really getting old." He joke.

Harrah giggles. Iore smiles, "there you smiled now."

Harrah takes a glimpse at him then looking back at the Hemora Castle.

"You've mentioned that a big celebration will happen soon in the main kingdom, right?" she asked him.

"Yes, my Queen. The founding of the Great Kingdom is celebrating in a month from now. All of the cities will send representatives, including their knights and the rest of the officials," he answered.

"As well, many guests from all over the continent will get involve and joined for the celebration," he added. "The families will gather in one place."

He means it is an opportunity to choose a suitable husband for the queen.

"I see. Also, it is the best chance to engage an attack."

Iore is a bit surprised for what the queen had said. Looks like, her body is weakening but she is fully aware of what is going on. She's the Great Queen indeed.

"If whatever results from today's meeting, I'll judge the situation and will make a hard decision," she said it meaningfully, not mentioning that when the Hemora King attack the main kingdom during the celebration, she already ordered Seiryuu to destroy that castle and the the darkness looms in the deepest part underneath.

"I am going to need the Chen family," she turns around and looks at Iore's eyes.

Mystified, Iore nodded, holding not to kneel in front of her. "It is our honor to serve the Queen," he responded.

He felt so much overwhelmed. He had already served two generations of a Great King, now he will serve the third one and he could feel an excitement arising from his inner being.

*****

Harrahina and Iore joined the others in the long table to have breakfast. Ashley heard of what happens to her last night and so she asked her worriedly. She smiled. She a.s.sured her she is fine now.

She also thanked Leonard and Zen while headed to the castle. They are now riding in a carriage and the four of them seated inside. She sat across Leonard and Zen then Iore by her side.

Zen as usual smiles warmly and Leonard keeps his serious face. But he gives her a worried glimpse. She blus.h.i.+ngly smiled at them and told, she's even better now.

Leonard nodded. Seated on the sidelines, Iore observes quietly. He has known Leonard for long, of course, he is already familiar with his behavior and att.i.tude.

While Zen is enthusiastically telling Harrah stories about the city, Leonard just stays quiet.

She looks around at every street they'd pa.s.s by, she wanted to walk around the city later. Hope she could have the chances but there's more important they have to deal with.

***

They now arrive at the outer gatehouse entrance of the castle. A guard comes closer to take a look but he was startled seeing the Chief General and the Vice General who was in the carriage. Not only that, the great shaman is present as well.

He right away takes a bow and gives them permission to entered. Their carriage continued towards the drawbridge and the inner gatehouse opens.

They entered into a wide maze garden of colorful flowers in the courtyard. Now they entered the lower ward which they are halted.

It was Kihero who waited for them to relay an important message.

"The king will meet General Ming but he forbid for Master Iore to come."

Leonard glance at Iore who stays inside the carriage with Harrahina. He laughs sarcastically. He could sense the king plotted something. Iore nodded agreeing he'll wait here.

After a few moments, Leonard and Zen walk towards the upper ward where Throne Hall located, following Kihero leading the way. He notices that more knights stood around. He and Zen glance at each other meaningfully.

Left behind, Harrah strolls around the lower ward, Iore just follows her behind. She climbed a staircase and from there, she could see the city below. Turn to her left, she notices a young boy practicing a sword fight with his teacher. Harrah's eyes grew wide open, she recognizes the boy.

"My qu--, lady Harrah wait!"

The queen runs down the stairs towards the young boy in the middle ward garden. She was blocked by the knights.

"Who are you?" one of them asked her rudely.

"She's with me," Iore speaks behind.

The captain saw the situation and he recognized the great shaman.

"Grand Master!" he bows partly. "I am sorry, we haven't informed of your arrival."

"There is nothing to bother, we remained this visit a secret. General Leonard and Vice general Zen now had a meeting with the King."

The captain surprised and startled a bit. Worries registered into his face.

"Do not trouble yourself. We will leave sooner after the meeting is over."

"Then, please come Grand Master. Prince Braille is currently taking his sword practice." the captain shows them the way.

"I'll call the maids to prepare some tea," he offers.

"That would do," Iore replied then smiled.

The captain called someone and instructed something. He followed them after he gives the orders.

"Prince Braille, the Grand Master is here."

The boy and his teacher stopped at once. The teacher bows.

"h.e.l.lo, young prince." he greeted Braille.

"Grand Master, an honor to have you here," Prince Braille greeted politely.

He smiled. Such a great young age, the queen truly taught her son good manners.

"The honor of meeting the prince is mine."

"Hi! Am glad you are fine!" Harrah holds Braille on his shoulders and checks if any wounds he has.

"Who, who are you?" Braille was confused about the way this strange girl doing.

"Do not be afraid, I am just happy seeing you are alright." Harrah pats his head.

Still confused, the prince nod. His cheeks are burning, his gazed settled into Harrah's chest.

"Ah..." she steps back and stands straight. She still wearing a revealing clothes.

Not long after, their tea arrives and served. In a round table, the three of them seated. Braille is now relaxed around her.

The queen heard about the arrival of the generals and the grand master. Reports came to her how her husband forbid the great shaman of attending the meeting. She plans to storm the throne hall then she heard Braille is now accommodating the grand master and his company who happens a very beautiful girl.

Out of curiosity, she chooses to meet the grand master. She spotted them in the middle ward garden.

"The Queen has arrived!" the captain announced.

"Grand Master!" she directly approached the shaman Iore. "Please forgive the rudeness of my husband."

"Do not be troubled my queen," he consoles her. "There's nothing to worry."

"I am deeply ashamed of how the way my husband acted."

"It's alright... this way, we could have our own time," he said between his warm smiles.

The queen wipes her tears. They understand that her tears were meant for something else. He holds the queen's hand and said, "Everything will be alright soon."

"It is what I prayed, always grandmaster."

"Now, join us. Prince Braille is really now growing up. He was a little boy the last time I saw him."

The queen looked at her son, "Yes. He is such a good boy."

Braille's face blushed from the praised of his mother.
