Chapter 167: chapter 167- Back
- Next Morning.
"Sir, I'm here"
Sylph, who has disappeared since they arrived at Archeart Castle, finally comes to meet Taufik, who is sitting drinking coffee on the balcony while enjoying the view of the lake in the morning.
"Oh~ it's you, where have you been?"
"I've gone to meet the Kel-Toi Tribe... Actually, the previous Tribe's chief dies... You know, because I forcefully terminated the contract so this and that happen... So I need to make a new contract with the New Chief... But it seems, after that Incident, they seemed afraid to make a contract with me... So we "talk" Nicely of course for a whole night"
"..."
Taufik just silently looks at Sylph because he detects a little lie in what Sylph just said, and Sylph also knows that her little lie is already known by Taufik.
And the next second Taufik divert his gaze from Sylph back to the scenery of the lake.
"... I don't care what you do with them as long as is not something serious like before, you understand?"
Hearing that, Sylph let out a sigh of relief and then nodded her head.
"... Yes, sir"
Taufik didn't say anything after that and kept watching the lake while sipping his coffee; he didn't know why, but when he looked at the lake, his mind became calm.
"*Huuft~* Alright...
Said Taufik after taking a long breath, and then looking back toward Sylph.
... Sylph, tell me what you know about your brother, Banaspati"
"Banaspati, sir? Hum~ do you want to help him too? If so, then you don't have to worry too much, I don't know if Chelone told you this, but Banaspati was the calmest among us, so an "accident" like mine will not happen... Soon, so you can take your time"
"It so? Then-"
*Knock~Knock~Knock~*
"Lil Bro, are you up, already?"
Hearing that, Sylph looked at Taufik with a look that asked for an explanation, but Taufik just let out a sigh; too lazy to explain the situation to Sylph, and he didn't have to either.
"Yah~ What happens?"
*Ceklek~*
Taufik didn't receive an answer from Amanda outside but instead saw the door of his room was opened directly by Amanda, and there he saw Amanda come inside his room with Caldwell following her.
Caldwell didn't look directly at Taufik; maybe he was embarrassed by what happened last night.
'If you are embarrassed then don't do it'
Said Taufik in his head while looking at Caldwell.
"Lil bro, we wanted to go back home"
Said Amanda directly.
"... So?"
"Sooo~ you need to come with us"
"Didn't I say that have something I need to do, or are you forget it already?"
"C'mon~ you just need to greet our father, your uncle, then you can go after that, it will take just a little time of yours, I think my Father will also be happy to see you. you just need to say hello, and after that, you are free to go wherever you want, okay?"
Said Amanda while putting her pleading looks again.
"*Sigh* Alright~ I just need to say hello to him, right?"
"Yes~Yes~ so you come with us?"
"Yeah~ or can I refuse it?
"No~ you can't"
"as I thought"
Said Taufik in a tone that sounded like he had given up.
"Yeyy!!"
Amanda cheered happily, and even though it was only for a moment, Caldwell smiled too, but when he saw Taufik looking at him, he immediately wiped away his smile.
"... Alright~ Let's have breakfast first and then we'll leave right away"
--------------
- After Breakfast.
"Prince, Princess, and also Young sir, Thank you for gracing us with your presence in our castle"
Arden Archeart said while bowing his head, followed by his Family.
"No, Don't be like that, Earl, we are the ones who should be thanked for letting us spend the night here"
Said Caldwell.
"You are too humble, Prince... Sorry, I can only ask my men to take you to Edinburgh Airport and cannot take you to the palace myself."
"It's okay, that's enough to help us... Alright~ we're going now, Thank you for your hospitality"
Caldwell said again and then entered the car that Arden Archart had prepared.
Taufik and Amanda also said thank you to Arden Archeart and his Family before entering the car.
------------
- About three/four hours journey to Edinburgh Airport.
Nothing much happened on their way to Edinburgh Airport; they just talked about various things.
And after arriving at the Airport, they immediately boarded the plane with the ticket that had been booked by Arden Archart, because the plane was about to depart.
No one recognized them because Amanda used Magic to disguise themselves, except for Taufik.
After more than an hour of flight, they finally arrived at Heathrow Airport.
"wait I will call someone to pick us up"
Said Caldwell, and then took his phone out; a few moments later, Caldwell was seen talking to someone on the phone.
"... We have to wait for several minutes, what should we do at that time?"
Said Caldwell.
"Hmm~ lets Go grab some food, it's already noon, and I'm already quite hungry"
Said Amanda while rubbing his stomach, which was starting to growl; Taufik didn't say anything and only followed them because right now his mind was full of Thoughts of something.
'... Is it okay to do this without the consent of my mom? Aiss~ Just let do it; I just had to say hello to her brother and leave right after that; what could have happened?'
Said Taufik in his mind, but still the feeling that something was going to happen could not be removed from his mind.
"Hmm~ There's a Cafe around here, let's Go there"
Said Caldwell and then directly led them toward the Cafe he mentioned.
After arriving at the cafe, they just ordered a simple lunch, while waiting for their pick-up.
After a while, a well-dressed person came towards them.
"Your Highness, the limousine is ready. Should we wait until you finish your lunch, Prince?"
That person said.
"No, Let's go directly, it's a Happy accession so the Dukes should know this soon the better"
"As you wish, Your Highness...
Said That person and then looked at Taufik.
... And who's this person, Your Highness?"
Hearing that, Caldwell and Amanda were silent for a while considering whether or not they should tell him about Taufik's identity, but after thinking for a while, they chose not to tell him because why should they?
"He with us, don't worry"
"... I Understand"
With that, Caldwell paid for their food straight away and headed straight to Windsor Castle.
--------------
- Windsor Castle.
Seeing the limousine coming, without asking anything the guards immediately opened the gate and let the limousine in.
The limousine immediately stopped right in front of the entrance to Windsor Castle, after which the person driving the limousine got out of the limousine to open the door for Amanda and Caldwell.
"Your Highness~"
""Thank you""
Said Amanda and Caldwell and then got out of Limousine, and Taufik also followed them out.
Amanda directly grabbed Taufik's hands and then dragged him into the castle, leaving Caldwell behind.
"Hey~ Slow down, why are you in such a hurry?"
Taufik asked weakly, but he did not pull back his hand, which was still being pulled by Amanda.
After a while, they arrived in front of a room, and without knocking, Amanda immediately entered the room.
"FATHER! Look who I brought back with me!"
Said Amanda.
"!!!"
In the room, which has many bookshelves, in the middle of bookshelves, there is a study table in the middle occupied by a man who is surprised by Amanda, who suddenly enters the room.
Seeing the man, Taufik felt familiar, the slightly curly black hair with blue eyes that Taufik recognized very well.
The man has a resemblance to his mother.
"Look who is here, he was-"
*Bang!!*
The man immediately hit the table, which made Amanda stop from continuing her words.
"Taufik! What are you doing here?"
"Eh? You know him, Father?"
Ask Amanda in confusion; not only Amanda, but even Taufik was also surprised by the man who recognized him.
"You Shouldn't be here, right now, Queen Mother is here, what if she found-"
"why if I know?"
Suddenly, an old woman's voice was heard from the door, cutting off the man's words, and when they looked towards the voice, they all saw an old woman who had come with Caldwell.
Seeing this, the man began to look panicked.
"M-Mother...
Said That Man and then Suddenly went in front of Taufik.
... Mother it's not like wha-"
"WHY if I know, William?"
Said the old woman in a slightly high tone, which made the man named William even more panicked.
"Th-This... "
William didn't know how to answer that old woman, and Amanda was also silent with this sudden change in the situation, which was not what she expected, let alone Taufik, who was confused by what was happening in front of him.
'What the hell happened here?'
Said Taufik inside his mind, confused By this sudden change in the situation, Taufik looked at Caldwell to ask for some explanation, but Caldwell was looking down like a child caught doing something wrong right now.
'F*ck! I shouldn't have come here!!'
