Immortal Witch: Eldest Daughter Of A Duke

Aaron just come from looking all the nonsense around the kingdom. Seeing the expectant big eyes coming from the gossiping young prince he rebel, "Prince Lenester I'm your.. AIDE!! your CONFIDANT!!!", 'not some gossiper.' he grumbled inside.

"Mhmm" Prince Lenester agree, then looked at him with sparkling eyes, "So?"

Aaron mentally hit this young prince inside, he felt wronged. 'Every morning he need to look for a gossips outside, not only in morning but at afternoon and night too. What am I? Is this my breakfast, lunch and dinner.' He gritted his teeth and didn't answer the young prince. He moved to the table to get snacks but found nothing. "Prince I'm hungry."

Prince Lenester raised an eyebrow. "News this afternoon?"

(」ﾟﾛﾟ)｣ 'I am worse than a slave. Am I a pet?' Aaron cursed inside, 'This prince should make a gossiping network all around the place to satisfy his boredom.'

He sighed, then harrump.. but after thinking about it he said, "Not much too, the hottest gossips is still about the Combre House.. but.. there is something.. interesting."Aaron admitted he is interested too.

The prince can't contain his excitement and sit up straight. He smiled showing both his dimple, "What is it?"

"*Cough* *cough* I saw a little girl outside the government office begging for help.. she .. have the same face of.." Aaron glanced at Hugo who is meditating quietly and continued, "She looks a lot like young miss Liberaine. I even think that she is young miss Liberaine but only her vibe is slightly differ compared to young miss Liberaine."

Prince Lenester raised an eyebrow, he frowned, "Just look alike, I am sure of it. I just saw Rene when I was in the empire." His smile on his face is gone, "Don't compare Rene to others, Rene is only one."

Seeing the young prince mood worsen, he replied, "No young prince they are really similar.. I can't help but compare..."

The frowned of the young prince deeper, he heard the silent Hugo said, "Is the girl you are talking about have green eyes?" Hugo can't help but comment and stop meditating. He understood Aaron and he even felt a familial feeling to the little girl which is weird.

Aaron immediately nodded, "Sir Hugo, you know her?" Aaron forget his lunch, he is quiet curious too, that girl is oddly similar. 'Maybe.. maybe .. they are twins?'

"I saw her while looking at the inn. I can't blame you for having the thoughts, because I too think of that when I saw here." He sighed counting the details he done, "I even jump on her and began to question her which makes her confuse, if not for father attitude being protective I will bring back that child because of worry thinking that she is my little sister."

Aaron can't help but laugh, "Sir Hugo, like father like son huh."

While Hugo kindly smile at Aaron, Prince Lenester chuckled and sarcastically said to Hugo, "Brother Hugo, even you?"

Hugo know that the prince is irritated, he only become like this when it comes to his little sister, He close his eyes saying, "See for yourself." and start meditating.

Prince Lenester stand up, look at Aaron and left. His face still have his charming smile but his eyes is not smiling only irritation of it can be seen, Aaron noticed it. He follow behind the prince and said, "Prince, my lunch." But he was ignored, Aaron can only cry without tears and lead him to the little girl.

After prince Lenester left, Hugo opened his eyes and looked at the door. He sighed thinking that the prince is still the same in the past, his world only revolves around to Rene, her only love. Their engagement is not loveless, 'Ever since Liberaine is in the w.o.m.b of mother, she is already engaged to the 3rd prince and that makes the prince excited even he is just 4 years old at that time. The two grow up innocently loving each other. He must felt that Liberaine will be humiliated having her look alike. He really.. loves my little sister..'

Hugo is right, Prince Lenester is wondering about the little girl, 'Same face? What if her attitude is worse and may cause a gossip that can damage the reputation of Rene thinking that she is her. What if someone found that little child and use her face for their plan, making Rene suffer?' Prince Lenester is already thinking about the future. He knows how traitorous a world is, he even know the taste of that, 'I will make sure to protect Rene.'

In the Combre House, Elder Galvin slammed the paper in the table angrily, the king dismiss the officials in the palace, busying themselves looking for the prince, the king even warned him privately to took care the problems in his house quietly. And now another commoner keeps begging again outside his gate, "WHO IS IT?" 'another big man again?'

His servants stuttering said, "Master.. it's a little girl."

Elder Galvin raised his chin, everyday there is complaint that keep tarnishing his name. He decides, 'After this I will make sure to punish my men responsible for all of this. I cannot keep them now.'  Elder Galvin wants his men to be blamed at and stop this chaos. He squint both his eyes thinking that it's a pity that he will lost some of his loyal men.

He stood up and walked outside the gate only to see the glare of the surrounding people to him. They didn't even cover their disgust, and glaring at him without respect. Elder Galvin unhappily looked at them but they didn't back down.

In the center of all of this is a weakly looking little girl sobbing and begging again for injustice.

"Uhhh... I am really a coward. I'm an a.d.u.l.t but didn't have guts to fight this disgusting house and yet this little girl have more guts than we.. a.d.u.l.ts. I must wake myself this time."

"I have a cousin that has been harassed by that house too. I will not back down anymore."

"*sob* *sob* my husband die in their hands too, he is just selling cabbage and didn't mean to offend them, and the result of just being offend a little is his life... wu... wu.."

"Curse you!! You didn't even let go of a little child."

Angry comments of bystander can be heard. They wants to destroy that damnable house. All of the hate deeply rooted inside them, all the injustice one by one brings up and soon the coward people in the past become an angry bunch that will not cower to all things.
