Chapter 120 – Emma and Zarah’s Jealousy

Third person POV

After that, Alexander said to Robert, Sol, and Emi that they may go.

"Thank you, Your Highness," Robert replied back with a slight bow, before he, Sol, and Emi left the office, and the attendant shut the door.

With that, Alexander and Stephen went back to their work, with Stephen helping out by arranging and rearranging his father's paperwork.

Shortly thereafter, at the palace gardens, Robert, Sol, and Emi are having a nice walk, with Robert enthusiastically expressing to Emi how she will defect for good.

"Yeah, so I could restore honor to my clan in Kita," Emi responded back. "Thanks for helping me surrender."

"You're welcome, Kawabata-san," Sol replied positively. "We're happy to help."

They then all stopped walking, and Emi said to them with determined confidence, "I'll do my best to be an undercover spy for the king!"

"Now that's the spirit, Emi-chan," Robert replied back with a compliment.

Her new nickname really caused her to blush a bit. Her weapons are still in Sol's leather messenger bag, the best of all kinds, while her bow is on Sol's back.

And then, moments later, Jeremiah, Emma, Tanaka, and Zarah called Robert's and Sol's names, and the three of them turned to their right.

"You guys are pretty fast," Tanaka said to Robert and Sol.

"Oh, hey, Tanaka-senpai," Robert greeted back. "Where have you been? I haven't seen you and Tadashi-san for a few days."

"Sorry, me and Tadashi got lost in this huge city," Tanaka apologized with an explanation, "and we ended up slept at an inn yesterday afternoon. We only found this place this morning though."

"Oh, that's why," Sol replied back. "Well, you and your uncle should've got a map. It's available everywhere."

To that Tanaka apologized again.

After that, he, Jeremiah, Emma, and Zarah noticed Emi, and they, except for Zarah, were shocked to see that she is with Robert and Sol.

"H-Headmaster, what is that Old Faction member is doing here?"

"Yeah, what the hell?"

"Isn't she allowed to be here?"

But, Emi's beauty really caused Emma to become jealous of her, comparing her beauty to hers.

And so, Robert and Sol tried to defuse the situation and clear out the misunderstanding by saying that Emi is now their ally against the Old Faction, adding that she is now working as an undercover spy for the king.

After that, Emi calmly introduced herself to Jeremiah, Emma, Zarah, and Tanaka with a deep bow for a few seconds.

This really calms them down, but Zarah, too, became jealous of Emi.

Then, Emi admitted her love for Robert to them openly.

The rest got shocked to hear that, and Robert asked her why she would say in that time and situation.

This only increases the jealousy of Emma and Zarah, and, they couldn't take it so they finally admitted and confessed their love for Robert.

Robert, Jeremiah, and Tanaka are very shocked to hear that, while Sol said that he saw that coming beforehand.

"You two…," Robert said to Emma and Zarah.

"Yes, because you're so cool despite being two-faced," Emma admitted.

"For me, you looked good and nice," Zarah added.

To that Emi asked regarding Emma's statement, "Is he?"

"Yeah, I can be weak-minded and unaware of my surroundings," Robert admitted, "but brutal and overprotective whenever facing a difficult or serious situation."

The rest, except for Sol and Emma, then get what he had said.

But despite that, Emma, Zarah, and Emi got into a rivalry, with Emi showing her serious, assassin side, much to Robert's chagrin and confusion.

But the thing is, how this get any worse?
