First contact with Princess Sana

Lu Bao P.O.V

I woke up in the morning and had a big hangover, for I had drunk a bit too much last night at the banquet that the King of the Bantu people made to welcome me to his land.

However, the song of the birds that I could hear through the open window of my room gave me extra energy so relaxing the melody of these warblers was.

And as I was getting off the bed to go to the bathroom, someone knocked at the egress and I was sure that it was the maids of His Majesty.

I hastened to pull the door and indeed, the two beautiful servants assigned to me were standing there but they weren't alone this time.

A figure that I was discovering for the first time and that was shaped like a moon with arrow eyes and milky skin, to put it simply an angelic beauty, was placed behind the two servants and with a fatal smile caused my fragile heart to shift to the side as if I was having a stroke.

And then along with the servants that I already knew, the pretty woman who wore similar clothes, greeted me with a slight inclination of the head to the front. She thereafter said something to me but I couldn't understand a single word.

However, I knew I had to follow them. So I presented to them my right index finger to tell them to allow me one minute to prepare myself.

I rushed to the toilet and quickly showered before grabbing a red and loose cotton robe that was in the closet at the left corner of the room.

In a quarter hour, I was set and left the chamber with the three women that came to pick me up and they escorted me to His Majesty.

Immediately I stepped my foot on the main yard of the palace where the King of the Bantu people was sitting under the anti-sun protective roof of the buckaroo with his entourage, I remarked next to his Majesty a girl of my age, about fifteen or sixteen years old.

There was no doubt that she was a princess so beautifully dressed she was in a light blue fabric with nice embroidered patterns and a pair of Sapphire earrings.

I bowed before the King who then told me things that Yasir the royal counselor who was the only one able to speak Mandarin, construed for me.

He introduced me to the princess and said that her name was Sana. The royal advisor revealed to me that His Majesty had tasked her to make my stay in the land the most agreeable that could be.

I was very pleased with the King's attention but in the meantime, I felt great pressure upon myself to remain worthy of the Ruler's favors.

The conversation was fast and short. As always with a movement of the head, His Majesty ordered that I be taken away. I didn't know where I was going next, I simply followed the three servants at my service.

We went back inside the main building of the palace and walked up to an eating room that was filled with the finest agapes for breakfast that I had ever seen.

I ate to satiety and the servants took me back to my accommodation where I rested for some time before I got the surprise visit from the leader of the indomitable fighters accompanied by two of his elements.

They made me understand that I had to come with them and took me to the forest for deer hunting. At first, it seemed like they intended to make fun of me and when they realized that I was extremely skilled in wielding the arrow and arc, they began to give me more consideration and respect.

In the imperial palace in China, I started to learn how to combat like a warrior from the age of five and that was something that fascinated me.

I dreamed about conquering and annexing other empires and being acclaimed by my people but my father had now put an end to my ambition by throwing me out of the imperial palace.

That was a bracket. As I was explaining the indomitable fighters were startled by my hunt performance. I killed a big deer and we brought it to the village under the curious and admiring eyes of the inhabitants.

The news reached the ears of Princess Sana and she came to congratulate me while I was in my room and for the first time we had a conversation. And though we couldn't understand the meaning of our words, we compensated with sign language.

From that moment, my heart started to be filled with feelings for the young and pretty princess.
