''*Cough*... Sorry for making the atmosphere awkward.''
She apologized. It's her fault for holding his hand and make the atmosphere quiet!
''Its... Fine, so you don't need to feel sorry about it.''
''Okay.'' Elizabeth nodded, because Asher said she didn't need to react much to the small things she caused, she just nodded.
She then noticed that it felt fun interacting with Asher, a boy!
She then blushed again, but this time, Asher don't know what made her blush.
Her blushing expression then disappeared and replace with an smiling one. She knows how to hide her expression easily, because it's what her mother teaches her first.
The Imperial family must be strong. They shouldn't show any emotion to the public that can make them look weak or can get taken advantage of it so they shouldn't cry when someone they love died, or any sad events.
They can cry... But not on public. They must have a strong image to the whole Empire.
''It's fun to talk to you, Asher.''
She smiled, it's really fun to talk with someone that doesn't get bothered by her status, as a crown princess.
When she talk with someone lower status that her, they sometimes fake, exaggerated, boot lick, or anything fake they say. It makes her have bad impression on nobles and think that they all are greedy but I guess there's a different one, like the Silvilya family whom her father have good relationship with it.
The death of the Duke made her father enraged. He's body isn't found so there's no funeral that make her father more enraged.
Thankfully they stop the war and calmed down.
''I can say the same to you, crown princess.''
''Oh you don't need to call me my title! Just call me by my name like I did the same to you.''
She pouted when Asher called her title, not her name. It's not really a big deal to her if she's talking someone that she have fun with, because she already experience it many times, but....
She just doesn't like it when someone she have a good impression on called her title, not her name.
Does her title more matters than her own?
She quickly denied that thought. She only got her own title because of her own so she's more important than her own title.
''Okay, Elizabeth.'' He smiled, which make Elizabeth felt happy because she got a new friend today! Especially it's an Silvilya, but she obviously did not make him her friend because of his status.
''We're friends now!''
''Isn't it too fast?'' Asher felt like this development is too fast!
''Who cares? If it means we can be friends at this speed, then we are compatible to each other!''
She spoke innocently that can make others misunderstand her sentence, but they are kids so they won't think about 'that'.
''Ah! Wait, I'm going to introduce my two friends with you.'' She then stand up and walk towards to other table.
She then whispered someone to her age, it's her friend which Asher recognize.
It's one of the main heroine, a daughter of the other duke.
Charlotte Wilhelmina.
The precious daughter of Duke Wilhelmina that he dotes a lot.
Not much is known about her because she never really go outside that much.
But she is known to be mischievous among in the servants, pretty spoiled too because of the Duke.
She have auburn hair that falls down to her waist and yellow eyes. She have the atmosphere of the mischievous little girl, especially that smile after Elizabeth wanted to introduce her to her new friend. This atmosphere make nobles avoid her from troublesome troubles. She's wearing a red dress with red see through sleeves in her whole arms. She's wearing a black stocking too.
Just like the main heroines, she is exaggeratedly beautiful too because of her power and bloodline, a dragon bloodline.
It's suppose to give her an prideful and serious atmosphere but instead, it's the latter.
Being powerful gives you a benefit of being Handsome/Beautiful, but not that many powerhouse cares about it.
Asher then thanked Elizabeth in his mind because he doesn't need to approach them one by one.
It's also the reason why he approach Elizabeth first too.
'I wonder what bloodline I will get...' He's pretty excited on what bloodline he will get after he finished this quest.
He then look at Elizabeth, who is approaching another table, where Cylde's older sister seat at.
Olivia Astley.
She's the eldest daughter of Marquess Astley.
She is suppose the heir of the family, but the Marquess prefer a boy to be his successor so Cylde became the heir after he was born.
Even though she is more talented than her little brother. (AN: Hah... Belief!!!)
Though the Marquess is proud to his daughter and just look at her as his tool as the same as his son, he just prefer his son than his daughter so he gave Cylde more attention than Olivia.
Her long jet black hair and beautiful golden eyes and her cold face makes her a cold type beauty. She carries a dignified and cold atmosphere that makes people hesitate to interact to her. They are under pressured! She is wearing a purple dress with purple see through sleeves and of course, an black stockings.
She is also hard to make her fall because of her trust issues, but she doesn't have trust issues yet because the unfortunate incident still didn't befall to her.
The three of them are slowly approaching Asher.
''Asher!'' She waved while running towards Asher.
''This is my two best friends!'' She then pointed Charlotte and Olivia with her fingers.
''Why they are here? Because I'm going to introduce them to you!''
