Chapter XXIII

My eyes immediately widened and I hid behind the shed while the elder lady gave me a confused look. I could only imagine what she was thinking right now. The soldiers started speaking,

"An eighteen-year-old royal lady with brown hair, brown eyes, and medium height, has been missing from the castle if anyone.."

He stopped his sentence to glare at everyone, to show that he expected absolute obedience,

"...anyone happens to see her, they would immediately report to the castle!" He concluded.

I don't know how I will escape if he is already searching for me. There were still a few hours left till he realized I was no longer in the castle. I can't believe that he already has his soldiers looking for me.

The woman that ignored me, when I went to sell some apples to her, started searching around and I know that she doubts that the girl could be me.
