Alessia's POVI also finished the reduction and I was careful because I might step on the crime I committed. I left there where I reduced even though I couldn't see anything."I-I'm done," I promised even though I don't know where Elijah is standing now."I know." Elijah suddenly promised that he was by my side. I was surprised by that but I wasn't annoyed or pissed off."Let's go," I promised him and he pulled me back to the group.Now I feel relaxed and my stomach doesn't hurt like before. Maybe, this will be my life in the next few days. I shouldn't be ashamed anymore because it doesn't seem like it's any of them.Unlike humans, when they find out that you have diarrhea, they will laugh at you. So it's embarrassing to say that. To them, it's natural and they don't find it funny so it's not embarrassing anymore.I just realized now, that something is only embarrassing if people around you laugh at you. Doing a thing has never been shameful, not until you're surrounded by judgmental
Alessia's POVThe horse that Elijah and I were riding began to move forward after that matter. I am now chewing a fruit they call Soursop. It's Guyabano as far as I know but they laugh at Soursop here. It's not sour like tamarind, it's sweet and juicy to be exact, although sometimes there is a bit of distinctive sourness of the fruit it tastes delicious.I just eat it while looking ahead. Elijah, on the other hand, is careful that he will defend me no matter what. We didn't talk because I was busy eating. But my eyes were busy looking around. The weather is clearer now, it seems that the overcast clouds have disappeared so it is becoming a normal forest, see Eleftheria. The horse was running fast, but because Elijah was holding me, I was still able to eat well. I'm not afraid of falling because I have a lot of trust in him that he won't let me fall.I finished it because it wasn't big but it was enough to fill my stomach. Elijah immediately wiped my sticky hands. If someone sees the t
Alessia's POVI frown every time I remember that Sushi made me suffer and was ignored. I didn't think he knew how to sulk. I didn't remember him because of so many things that happened. I remember my life before.So I let you have Sushi first. If he doesn't sulk anymore, I know that will come to me too.I looked up and saw the seemingly endless volcano of Eleftheria. The winged baboons are gone, and we are now on a steep road. It has no trail and is not part of the road. But no one passes here if I think about it."We will hike from here," Elijah told everyone and I felt Elijah's mouth on my ear. "Sweetheart, they are all watching you clinging to me." He whispered to me. Besides, I remembered the position of the two of us that hasn't changed since we chased the baboons.I am still straddling him, now. I felt embarrassed and I don't know what they were thinking, but I hope it was not bad. I don't think anything bad about our position."Just let me down please." I weakly promised him an
Alessia's POVI was going to ask what made him angry but I didn't do that because I heard Stefano's laughter coming down from the hole."Woooooahhhh!" I saw them coming down. He was holding Sushi who had turned into a puppy now who was still ignoring me.They immediately landed and I saw that they were carrying all the unisus including Elijah's.They immediately got off their horses and I was just quiet and nervous. They approached us and it did not escape my eyes that the newcomers looked at me. I saw the shock in their eyes but it immediately disappeared and it was as if nothing had happened."We will walk from here," Elijah said as he decided to speak. "And I would like to say a reminder, whatever you saw and discovered from here, will remain a secret." He said and I immediately got what he meant. He wanted to hide the fact that they already know that I am a girl."Next, dear king." The sentinels answered."Let's go," Elijah said. "Leave your clothes here, we will get them back lat
Alessia's POVYou know nothing about the beast's body...you can never heal my wounds."I might not be able to, but at least I tried. Only the ocean can heal your wounds." I promised him and he was quiet again. I don't know what the Basilisk was thinking, but I know that what I said made him think.Oceans are sacred water. We filthy beasts have no right to touch the waters.I feel like my heart has been beaten. Why did what he said seem to hurt? They can't? But as far as I know, the sea is inhabited by monsters that I don't know what."Who says that a beast has no right to touch the ocean when the ocean is filled with monsters? I might have no idea about the law of beasts, but I believe, if you need something, you need to obtain it even by breaking the rules. You will only bathe in the sea and nothing else." I promised him and I hope he agrees.How can I trust you?"You can see the sincerity of my heart. And I am with the king of Valeria, the first man who steps foot on this continent.
Alessia's POVThe Basilisk flies the air again. We just took the same route. I closed my eyes every time we met the clouds because it was cold and wet.I saw the beautiful view above the clouds again. I feel like I will never get bored of this place. I knew this was the first and last day I would see this sight.This is not a place to visit. But somehow, all my life I have seen this place. I am satisfied with that and I will keep it in my memory.I saw the end of the volcano in the distance. If you look at it, it just looks like a hill. But this is only the tip and not the whole volcano.The Basilisk immediately entered the hole and almost left my soul in the air due to its plunging flight. I almost stopped when it suddenly waved and landedElijah immediately ran to us. He immediately looked at me to see if anything bad had happened to me."He's healed," Stefano commented that he was now looking at the Basilisk. Their eyes were on the Basilisk's body in amazement."It also works on ma
Alessia's POVWe returned to the palace late at night. I can feel the hunger because we all haven't eaten since earlier. We were very hungry and I was sure I could eat a lot today.The whole palace seemed to be shaken when we arrived. All the waitresses and sentinels greeted us. I tried to hide my face with my clothes. Elijah and Stefano helped me so they didn't let any waitress get near me, not even Estrebelle whom they surprised.I hurried to my room to take a shower and get dressed. I closed the door and locked it so that Estrebelle couldn't just walk in.I was about to enter the bathroom when I heard what sounded like the door being scraped. I wondered what it was so I went back to the door to open it.When I opened it, I didn't see anyone, but I looked down when a puppy walked in and frowned. I bit my tongue, I forgot Sushi again! It's not even finished sulking me, my guilt has increased again."Sorry." I only mentioned it because Sushi walked in and ignored me.I was scratching
Alessia's POVI wake up with a bit of a headache. I didn't sleep enough and that didn't make up for the fatigue I experienced on that trip. Estrebelle was not there and Sushi was still sleeping. It looks like he stayed up all night because of what happened last night.I got up even though I felt pain in my senses. This is normal because I lack sleep. I took a quick shower to eat.I also took a quick shower because I took a shower last night. I just put on the black kimono with the thinness. The sleeves are long and loose.I quickly combed my hair and looked at myself in front of the mirror. It's not noticeable, but the lack of sleep is visible in my eyes.Who will be able to sleep soundly from what happened last night? I had it in my head that it might come back and eat my memories while I slept. Even if I thought that Sushi was there, watching, I couldn't be calm.Suddenly the door opened and slammed shut so I turned to see who had done it. I saw my older brother who had lost a lot o
