Twisted Fate of the Knight

Secret (Part 1)

"Yes. Please don't tell anyone about this until I find the answers and I need to do something."

"You're not going to hurt lady Miary, are you?"

"Don't worry. It's nothing to do with her and if I were to mess with her I will not be here."

"That's a relief. But may I know why are you hiding your identity if you can do it even if you're not disguising."

"I'll tell you the reason why with Lady Miary but not now so please keep this secret until then."

"Okay, I understand."

"Thank you, Sofie. I will remember this. I am in debt with you"

"No, no. It's okay Avy and I think you have a good reason why do you do this."

"Thank you so much, Sofie," I said then I hugged her but then she looked away as she pushed me gently.

"By the way Avy, you should dress up --"

"Oh. I'm sorry. Sofie, can you help me ?" I said because I can not wear the dress and corset properly which is why I am not comfortable because my clothes are not in order.

"Sure." She helped me to dress up and I feel much better than I dressed up myself.

"This is so comfortable unlike when I dressed up alone. I feel suffocated"

"Well, you dressed up wrong, and tying the corset is a bit complicated," she said while laughing a little.

"I have never been worn a corset before but for a dress I have worn once," I said while adjusting my small knife to my thigh.

"Kailan?!!" she said while her eyes are sparkling while looking at me.

"Ahm, O-okay. I'll tell you but you must take it a secret."

"Yes. Yes."

"Actually, I am the Lady that Lady Miary and the Crown Prince are looking for until now," I said while scratching my head

"Whatttt!!!!!" 

"Sofie, don't shout. I know that it was unbelievable."

"Mmmmm~" 

"Oh sorry," I said as I removed my hand from her mouth as she removed it.

"But the description is not accurate." as she looked at me from head to toe.

"Of course, I disguised and changed everything so that I can enjoy the festival since that day is the only that I can enjoy a festival by myself. Unfortunately, I run into them that day and the crown prince followed me but I lose them." I said.

"What?! the Crown Prince?!"

"Sofie I said turn down your voice."

"Then, what happens next?"

"Well, so he followed me and discover where I booked in. Then he followed me to the dating spot of the festival and he approached me-- "I stopped when I remembered the incident there.

"He approached you and???"

"Let's go. It's already time to attend to Lady Miary." I said and change the topic to our conversation

"I'll let you pass this time Avy but next time you will tell me everything or else~"

"Yes, yes," I said because she found another way to blackmail me.

We went out and went to Lady Miary's room, we found Dravis outside the room. Sofie greeted Dravis and he just nodded and I knocked.

"Lady Miary, it's me and Sofie," I told before I opened the door. Sofie and I entered and we found her lying down but just looking at the ceiling and obviously did not sleep last night.

"Lady Miary it's time to wake up and get ready for breakfast," I said while Sofie was preparing her things. However, she seems like didn't hear anything and was stunned so I pulled out her blanket before she notices me.

"I'm sorry Lady Miary but you need to get ready to attend the Crown Princess at 9 am and it is already 8 am."

"What?! Give me a mirror!" she said to me so I gave her the mirror.

"Oh my -- my face looks tired," she said as she touched her face

"Tsk. I can do something about your eyebags and sleepiness for the meantime so get up and change already." I said and left her room.

"Is Lady Miary done?" I was surprised by the person who talked so I looked around and I saw Dravis.

"Ahm. She just woke up and Sofie is attending her to get ready." I answered. I forgot we had a guard, I mean her Grace.

"Then, what are you doing here?"

"I'll just be going to get her breakfast while she's getting dress." I just said that even if someone brings it later, and I went to the kitchen.

~~

Lady Miary's Point of view:

"Sofie, do you think Avy can do something about my face?"

"I think so."

"By the way, when did you get so close with Avy."

"H-huh, pardon my Lady?"

"Don't 'huh' me Sofie. I just notice that you were more comfortable with him now." I said because she is no longer nervous with Avy when he is here, while she used to be shaking.

"Is that so? I just felt more comfortable since we were together here and I think it is not appropriate to act like that."

"I thought so." I just said even though I was a little suspicious but she was smiling and looking at me so I can't say she was lying.

I was already in my dress when Avy knocks before he entered with my breakfast. 

"Why are you the one--" 

~~~

Avy's Pov:

"Why are you the one--" I stopped her from talking.

"Shh. I can't be discovered here Lady Miary." I said and I closed the door completely

"Lady Miary don't forget that we have a guard outside."

"Ah, right. I'm sorry."

"Then, why are you the one getting my food if they will be delivered by the maids here?"

"That's because I can't stay here if your changing and I can't stay outside if Dra-Sir Dravis was outside the door so I have no choice but to say that I will be going to get your food."

"Oh. That's it. Then, stay in the bathroom."

"Well, I have no choice but to stay since I don't want to run some errands like that," I said because the kitchen is far from Lady Miary's room so I don't want to do it again.

I just waited for Lady Miary to finish eating and I made her sit in front of her mirror. I told her to close her eyes and relax while Sofie is just looking at us. I recited an enchantment to make her eyebags and exhausted as I kissed her forehead and her body lighten up. I took her powder and give her light make-up. I signed Sofie to keep what she saw as she nodded as a response.

~~flashback 10 years ago...

When I meet a young man who has been teaching me since the day when Ian almost lose his life when he was trying to save me and this man help us.

"don't use this magic carelessly, okay?"

"Why mister?" I asked him.

"Don't call me Mister! Am I that old?!"

"Nope but what should I call you, then."

"Call me ------ you have a very rare magic that will cause a ----"

"Okay"

~~End Flashback

But I do not remember the events very well but I only remember what he taught me and he suddenly disappeared after months after he taught me how to use my magic.

"You can open your eyes Lady Miary." I said to her and she opened her eyes.

"Woah?! how did you do that Avy?!"

"I just did something with my magic and a little effort to make you look better."

"But why did you kissed my forehead?"

"Maybe you just imagined that. I just hold your forehead it's not a kiss, okay?"

"Okay but I really felt that it's like a kiss."

"You can ask Sofie if you are not convinced."

"Nah. Let's go." So we went out and went to the Crown Princess study room.

We were outside when Lady Miary told us to eat first and Dravis would have stayed but she told us to eat and rest first since there were guards outside the study room. He just agreed and followed us. Although I was a little awkward with Dravis, I just didn't show it and we went to the kitchen and I did not expect them to know Dravis and apart from being known, he seemed close to the maids and workers. And the more I did not expect him to talk to them first while smiling. Well, all I can say is 'don't judge a book by its cover' that's why I just ate because I've been hungry awhile ago.

"Yva, you can have this," She said. She divides the food and gives it to me. Because she doesn't eat much because she might gain weight. And she said, she can't find a good husband when she gains weight, so she gives it to me. And because I exercise so I really need to eat a lot even though I hear 'I can't find a good husband or so no one will like me' but I don't care because I have no intention of looking since I've passed the marriageable age(mentally since I am in my 30's) even though my body is physically young.

"Thank you, Sofie," I said and continued my meal while Sofie was happy while looking at me eating the food she gave because I know how to enjoy food.

"Here. You can eat this too." I looked at the food in front of me and I was even more impressed by the smell, it smells delicious.

"Thank you." I just said without looking at the person who gave the food because I immediately eat the food.

"Yva, you should at least look at the person when you are thanking them."

"Oh, my bad. I have been seduced by the food that I couldn't look away from the delicious food in front of me." I said while eating.

"Then, did you know who gave you the food?"

"No, the important is that I said thank you and I believe that you should accept the blessing" Sofia sighed when I looked at her, and she *facepalm*

"Why? Is something wrong?" Then he pointed Dravis who was arranging things.

"Why are you pointing Dra- Sir Dravis?"

"Because he was the one who gave you the food."

"Whatt?!" I was about to vomit in no time by what she said. She immediately reached for the water as she handed it to me and they looked at me.

"Seriously ?! You're not kidding?"

"Do you think I'll be joking when I myself was surprised when he put down the food in front of you and he even spoke and you didn't notice it? "

"I didn't notice it. How is that possible, I know he was kind to the maids but I don't think he will just give me food if I am not even his friends or close to him." I said because I really can't believe it since we just met several times but it is not enough to be called his friends or acquaintance.

"And that's the point. He is not your friend but what I've heard about him. He is not like that to people who he just met and he was treated all the maids fair and square so I was surprised." she said softly to me.

"Then, what are you trying to say? that he likes me or something?" I said while I continue eating my food because it will be a waste if I don't eat it.

"I think so since the maid is glaring at you for a while now," she said that's why I looked at the maids around us and they looked at me badly.

"I didn't do anything. Why are they glaring at me when I was just peacefully eating my breakfast." I said and she just got a facepalm while looking at me.

"That means he likes you and the maids are being jealous because of you since Sir Dravis never treated a maid like what he did to you."

"Why are they being jealous? He just gave me food that is normal if you someone who eats a lot and even I will give some too if I were him." and he was even more worried while her hand is in her face by what I've said.

"Fine. Fine. Never mind what I told you. 'poor Sir Dravis'" she said and she whispered something but I ignored it.

"I'm done," I said while resting a little.

"Sofie if I went back to be a rabbit any moment you can look for me at -----"

"Okay. I understand." 

After we had our breakfast we head to the crown Princess study room and Sofie went inside while I and Dravis were outside along with the knights of the Crown Princess. Time goes by fast and it was already afternoon. But suddenly I felt hurt in my arm and I felt like I was going back to being a rabbit and it was not night yet so I quickly left without saying goodbye and fortunately Dravis did not ask me why. I immediately went back to our room and felt the pain coming from my arm.

"Ugh!" After a minute I turned into a rabbit and I immediately hide my clothes under my bed. Although I had a hard time pushing and pulling, I manage to hide it.

~Meanwhile

Lady Miary and Sofie got out from the Crown Princess study room and ready to go back but when they got out they noticed that Avy/Yva was not there. 

"Sir Dravis where is Yva?"

"I don't know Lady Miary. She was gone for 3 hours now since she left."

"Is that so? then let's go." Then they proceed to her room. They let Dravis wait outside before Sofie told her about Avy's situation.

"What?! where is-------"

"She's not feeling well so she stayed at our room---"

"Where is your ----"

" wow~ It is so cute~~~"
