Missing Magic Book

Aria woke up early the next morning, her mind filled with thoughts of the magic book and her plans to find someone who could read ancient Avonese. She quickly got dressed and went to take her morning bath. As she bathed, she couldn't help but think about the magic book and what secrets it held. After finishing her breakfast, she knew that she needed to find someone who could read it for her, someone who could help her understand the secrets of magic.

After her bath, Aria made her way to the throne hall, where she knew that Lord Blackwood would be waiting for her. She had a strange feeling in her stomach as she walked towards him, unsure of what he might say to her.

When she reached him, Lord Blackwood greeted her with a smile, but Aria could sense that something was off. He seemed tense and nervous, and she couldn't help but wonder what he was hiding.

"Good morning, my princess," Lord Blackwood said, his voice smooth and pleasant. "I trust you slept well?"

Aria nodded, her mind racing as she tried to figure out what he was up to. She knew that she needed to be careful around him, and she decided to play along for now.

"I slept well, thank you," Aria said, trying to keep her voice steady. "Is there something on your mind?"

Lord Blackwood hesitated for a moment as if he was trying to decide whether or not to tell her something. Finally, he spoke. "I wanted to discuss something with you, my princess," he said. "It's about a missing magic book that was stolen from the palace library."

Aria's heart skipped a beat as she heard the words. She knew that he was talking about the magic book she had found, and she knew that she needed to be careful.

"A missing magic book?" Aria said, trying to sound casual. "I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Besides, magic books no longer exist in our kingdom anymore."

Lord Blackwood seemed to relax a bit, and he smiled at her. "It's nothing to worry about, my princess," he said. "I just wanted to make sure that you were aware of the situation."

Aria nodded, her mind racing as she tried to figure out what to do next. She knew she needed to find a way to leave the palace and find someone to read the magic book for her.

With that thought in mind, she made her way to the sword training courtyard, where she was supposed to meet Sir Leon for their daily training session. The previous trainer had been relocated to the army after Leon had sworn his loyalty to her. He would now act as her new trainer. As she walked, she couldn't help but think about how he would train her. Would he be soft or hard on her?

When she arrived at the courtyard, she saw Sir Leon waiting for her. As she approached, he smiled and greeted her warmly. They started the training and Aria was pleased to see that he trained her even harder than the previous teacher.

After the training, Aria and Sir Leon sat down on a nearby bench to catch their breath. Today, she had made much progress as she had been able to block a few deadly strikes from Leon. Aria was pleased with her progress, but she knew that there was still much to learn.

"Sir Leon," Aria said, turning to him. "Can you do me a favor please?"

"Anything for my princess."She hesitated a bit before speaking her mind.

"I need you to go to the capital and find for me a person who can read ancient Avonese fluently."Sir Leon looked at the princess skeptically before nodding his head in assurance.

"If you don't mind, can I ask why you need such a person?"Aria looked at Leon surprised by the question he just asked. It was treason to question your master,s order as a knight but Leon surprised Aria. She however liked this version of him. Would she tell him about her secret. She contemplated on it for a while before letting the cat out of the bag.

"I have a magic book with me that is written in ancient Avonese. I believe that if I find out what is written in it, I will be able to harness the magical powers that I hold.I have not told this to anyone else but you. I think you can be trusted."

Sir Leon was both surprised and awed by the princess,s revelation. He somehow felt that there was some kind of power surging through her body but couldn't figure out what it was. He felt proud to be the first person to know about her powers. He would help her discover whatever was in that book. That was a solemn promise he made to himself.

"Your secret is safe with me princess. I will do anything it takes to help you. Besides, it is not only an order but also a duty I ought to perform."Aria flashed a grateful smile to him before looking at the sky absentmindedly.

"And after you have found that person,I will need your help to infiltrate outside the castle and meet with him."

Sir Leon looked at her with a mix of surprise and understanding. "I see," he said. "I can help you with that, but it will not be easy. The capital city is heavily guarded, and it will be difficult for us to leave the palace without being noticed."

Aria nodded, her determination growing stronger. "I know it will be difficult," she said. "But I am willing to do whatever it takes to uncover the secrets of magic and use them to help our kingdom."

Sir Leon looked at her for a moment before nodding. "Very well," he said. "I will do my best to help you. But we must be careful, and we must not be discovered."

Aria smiled, her heart filled with gratitude for Sir Leon's loyalty and support. "Thank you, Sir Leon," she said. "I know we can do this together."

With that, the two of them set out to plan their escape and find a person who can read ancient Avonese. They decided to wait for the night and sneak out of the palace together with the magic book. Aria's heart was pounding with excitement and fear, but she knew that this was her only chance to uncover the secrets of magic and change the fate of Avon Kindom about magic.
