This morning after the Corvus Palace breakfast session was completed, Prince Elio immediately changed his clothes according to the schedule this morning, namely the physical training and war sessions of Prince Elio.
Even before the day coach arrived at the training area Prince Elio was already warming himself up as he normally did.
“Greetings Your Majesty... Sorry I am a little late today because King Aiden discussed with me before.” explained the coach
“It's okay, if indeed the discussion is important just continue” jawan Prince Elio while doing push-ups
“It is finished Your Majesty, I can train you today” said the coach with a smile
“Alik” replied Prince Elio
Training began, the trainer provided physical training before the war training session began. For the palace lesson this time, Prince Elio did it happily and seriously.
This was one of the royal lessons he loved most and was looking forward to. In addition to the physical form, Prince Elio will also be accustomed to using weapons if at any time there is a war.
When Princess Quely was 18 years old, she accidentally entered Prince Elio's room whose door was not closed leaving a gap from her door. Because they had promised to go together so Princess Quely intended to enter to invite Prince Elio.
But Princess Quely shouted and closed her eyes when Prince Elio was bare-chested about to change clothes, making them both surprised.
But, there was no denying Princess Quely craved the shape of a body like her cousin—Prince Elio, who looked like a stacked brick. The recognition from Princess Quely that her body is good makes Prince Elio feel the spirit to undergo physical training.

3 Hours later, Prince Elio fell asleep on the barren and hot ground, the coach smiled and approached Prince Elio who was closing his eyes in exhaustion.
“I feel there is nothing to be commented on Your Majesty, in terms of the training I observe from time to time you continue to develop while you are always focused on this training. I hope you can improve your concentration even more because so far it has been very good Your Majesty. King Aiden must be happy to hear it.” explained the coach.
“Thank you, this is all because I love this lesson more than anything else. So I have a good development from time to time.” replied Prince Elio.
The coach smiled, Prince Elio stood up from his sleeping position and bowed to pay his respects.
“Thank you I said to you.. greetings..” Prince Elio said.
“Greetings Your Highness Prince Elio” replied the coach while doing the same respect.
After the coach left the training area, Prince Elio also left the training area to bathe and prepare for the next schedule, which is a routine meeting of princes and princesses.
...• • •...
An hour had passed, the princes and princesses were already sitting on the seats provided at Pejasone Palace as usual. While discussing Prince Elio was called by the palace butler to meet Queen Ails as usual.
And a new kingdom came to enter the scope of the 8 great Kingdoms which are currently increasing to 9 great Kingdoms. Prince Elio led the new man he knew into the room where they used to gather.
After standing in front of the princes and princesses, Prince Elio gave orders that he introduce himself.
“Please introduce yourself to” said Prince Elio
Tall body, large body, with some cuts on the face, tied hair, bright brown eyes, red lips, pointed nose, and a long nose, the firm jaw and carrying 2 swords on the right and left waist add a firm impression if you first meet him.
“My name is Ziaurus Qian Gudriai Xalvador Xalvarion, you can call me Prince Ziaurus. I am from the Xalvarion kingdom located in the Western part. The reason Xalvarion entered into the scope of your 8 Great Kingdoms is because we just conquered the Danmr Kingdom and managed to find a valuable discovery in ancient royal times. That's it, nice to meet you all. Greetings..” Prince Ziaurus said then he bowed respectfully.
The princesses and princes stood up from their seats and gave the same salute while showing their respective smiles.
“It's nice to meet you, Prince Ziaurus.” Prince of Aragon
“Hopefully you can be our good friend” said Princess Eudora
“Thank you” said Prince Ziaurus
“You can sit” said Prince Elio then he again sat in his original place
“Well what about the previous discussion that was delayed?” ask Princess Jannesa
“Can you explain to me what are you talking about?” ask Prince Ziaurus
“We are talking about the declining economy of Blue Stone Kingdom in recent days. We plan to make a donation in the form of sufficient food.” explained Prince Zaire
“I understand, may I comment?” ask Prince Ziaurus
“Please..” replied Prince Elio while looking at Prince Ziaurus with a flat gaze
“Previously, the Xalvarion Kingdom has also been in the same economic crisis. The help that comes not only in the form of food but they also provide clothing and vitamins and spices enough. To me it helped. In addition, some princesses and princes from different kingdoms also help socialize good planting for some plants. They also provide a pretty good solution to the following economic crisis.” explained Prince Ziaurus.
“I think that's a good suggestion, after all if noticed earlier we already have the same example.” replied the Prince of Aragon.
“But I don't know anything about growing crops, what kind of methods are used to improve plantations.” said Putri Hera
“You forgot yes? We have a natural library that runs here”, Prince Raynor said as he raised one eyebrow towards Princess Athanasia.
“I'm not a walking library” said Princess Athanasia did not accept
“But what I said is true right?” Prince Raynor smiled widely
“I think, the advice of Prince Ziaurus we can accept. And if you have seen the situation and immediate conditions we can make changes to the plan. I think we should visit the Blue Stone Kingdom, then form a team to execute the plan” said Prince Elio
“Alright, I agree!” princess Quely replied as she propped up her chin and looked at Prince Elio with a sparkling gaze.
Prince Elio smiled and then he touched Princess Quely's forehead until the victim grimaced. Princess Athanasia who saw the moment could only faintly smile while looking down.
“I also agree with it” said Putri Hera
“Iya, I also agree” said Prince Dragomir
“I think all agree with that suggestion, so we should run it straight” replied the Prince of Aragon
“Alright, we finish this thing” said Prince Elio
Finally, after finding a way out, the princesses and princes came straight out of the meeting room and rode out to visit the Blue Stone's territory.
...• • •...
It took 30 minutes to get to the Blue Stone's territory, then they put horses in special stables that residents rented to immigrants from outside.
When entering the territory of residents some plants are dry and dead, there are also rice fields that fail to harvest, and some vegetables rot into several piles.
“I think this is already severe condition” said Prince Ziaurus
“You are right prince” replied Princess Quely
Princess Athanasia was shocked when Prince Elio pulled her body to get close as she walked without direction and almost bumped into the other citizens.
“Thank you” said Princess Athanasia
“Do not daydream, princess.” said Prince Elio
“Tak I repeat” said Princess Athanasia.
“Baik” said Prince Elio
“Prince, I think we should apply the results of the discussion that we have done earlier. Because his condition is worse than Prince Theonor said.
“Alright, but does it allow us to solve this in just a few hours?” Prince Elio thought about estimating the time
“You can trust this to us, prince” Prince Dragomir said
“Alright, you can go directly according to the division of the team that has been given earlier. Me and my team will conduct land monitoring activities here and immediately socialize.” said Prince Elio.
“Good, let's do our job” said Princess Eudora
The princes and princesses immediately carried out their respective duties based on the division of the team, while Prince Elio, Princess Athanasia and Princess Jannesa scoured the grounds and chatted with one of the residents.
They gathered together farmers from various lands they managed to teach them how to effectively and prevent them if the same thing happened. Some residents crowded around and were interested in the chatter of Princess Athanasia and also Princess Jannesa.
Prince Elio monitored the condition of the other residents and asked from the other side about this impact.
After socializing, Princess Athanasia and Princess Jannesa approached Prince Elio.
“Prince, we will jump right in on how effective it is. Is it okay?” ask Princess Athanasia
“Princess Atha? Wahh... What is this? Is that a special call?” seduce Princess Jannesa while nudging Princess Athanasia who was beside her.
“You are here” said Princess Athanasia
“Alright, I will do it” Princess Athanasia said
“Come princess!” said Princess Athanasia took Princess Jannesa to return to the task
(It could be a danger if Princess Jannesa kept mocking me and Prince Elio) inwardly Princess Athanasia.
Prince Elio helped other residents and after his task was completed he jumped into the place where Princess Athanasia and Princess Jannesa were holding demonstrations.
Throughout the demonstration, Princess Jannesa did not stop misbehaving because she saw the cooperation of Prince Elio and Princess Athanasia who fell a kind of chemistry between the two people.
Starting from Prince Elio who guarded Princess Athanasia, helped Princess Athanasia when she almost fell due to walking in the mud, and helped bring shoes when she was about to plunge into the rice field.
Although Prince Elio also helped Princess Jannesa, he felt the chemistry of Prince Elio and Princess Athanasia was more romantic. She felt like watching the palace romance at the beginning of the approach, Princess Jannesa liked things that smelled of romance.
While on the other hand it is still within the same scope, the princes and princesses also distribute clothes, as well as food to the houses of the citizens. They were also happy when they saw the happy smiles of the citizens they helped this afternoon.
...• • •...
Finished with a helping session in the Blue Stone region, Prince Elio returned to Corvus Palace and changed clothes to hunt on his next schedule. When she was about to go hunting, Princess Quely came with her beloved white horse.
“Halo my cousin~ You want to hunt? Can I come with you? I mean me and Elsy” Princess Quely said with a smile and stroking the head of the white horse she named Elsy.
“No need to follow princess, I will be long. You are in the palace.” said Prince Elio
“I'm here to come with you, not even unemployed at the Palace like in my palace.” Princess Quely said
“You mean?” ask Prince Elio
“Sore I have no royal schedule, so I decided to take a walk with Elsy and I found my purpose is to meet and follow the activities of your palace.” said Princess Quely
“I hunt and you want to come? Using a dress?” Prince Elio stared at the white dress Princess Quely was wearing
“Iya, why? Dresses are not a barrier”, Princess Quely said
“Alright, whatever. The important thing is that I will not protect and help you in case something happens, Prince Elio said as he rode his dark horse.
“Let's see, you'll keep your word or even break it. I'm waiting for it my cousin.” said Princess Quely
Princess Quely could confidently say that because Prince Elio was a disbeliever of his own. In other words, he couldn't possibly let someone else get hurt if he was still around.
And the words that Prince Elio said were not once twice he said, but many times but eventually he would break them. Prince Elio began to run the horse and followed Princess Quely behind him.
Arriving in the forest Prince Elio immediately launched his action, he will hunt the deer this afternoon. Princess Quely is overwhelmed by chasing after the running Prince Elio.
“Hosh... hosh. I guess he'll slow down and beware it doesn't. That was the reason she asked about Princess Quely's ku~” dress while running after Prince Elio
“Hei bis - hmph hmph”
“Sst... don't be noisy.” said Prince Elio quietly while closing Princess Quely's mouth
Prince Elio threw a sharp difference in the direction of the deer then he directed his arrow right about the vital area of the deer. And Princess Quely rounded her eyes while covering her mouth with her own hands.
“You have the heart, prince” said Princess Quely
“This is called hunting” said Prince Elio with a smile
Prince Elio approached the dead deer and released the arrow and the sharp iron on the deer's legs.
“You are brutal once” said Princess Quely beside Prince Elio who will bring the results of his hunt.
“Let's go” said Prince Elio
“Go where?” princess Quely followed behind Prince Elio
The question was not answered until Prince Elio placed the pot under a large tree, Princess Quely immediately sat on a large root that appeared to the surface of the ground.
“Wait a minute here” said Prince Elio
Prince Elio immediately left Princess Quely, inevitably Princess Quely waiting alone in the forest along with the dead deer without asking Prince Elio where to go.
Before long Princess Quely heard the sound of twigs being trampled and dry leaves that sounded increasingly crowded and closer the source of the sound. Princess Quely immediately stood up from her seat and circulated a glance to her sekiatar to look for the source of the sound.
And in just a few seconds the white tiger appeared in front of Princess Quely, feeling the trembling and cold sweat of Princess Quely instantly retreated a few steps.
“AAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!”
Princess Quely shouted out loud, to fight she did not carry any weapons because her legs had been limp she was only able to stand on the spot.
As the tiger approached, Prince Elio immediately stood in front of Princess Quely and threw the rabbit at the tiger. The tiger immediately preyed on the deer and Prince Elio smiled.
“Eat a lot of Igr” said Prince Elio while wiping the white tiger's forehead
“I-igr?”
Princess Quely immediately sat down weakly about to faint, Prince Elio directly supported the body of Princess Quely who was already sitting on the ground with a blank look. Prince Elio gave Princess Quely drinking water in his pocket.
“Minum of this”
Princess Quely gulped down the mineral water she was given and she regulated the breath that was being decapitated at this moment.
“What's wrong, you're safe now. He is not a beast” said Prince Elio to appease Princess Quely who is still in the arms of Prince Elio.
“Why did you leave me alone in the woods huh! You didn't say anything to me, I didn't carry any weapons and you put that deer on me! What if I killed that tiger huh? You want to take care of my funeral? You have such a heart!!” oceh Princess Quely while pushing Prince Elio
“I have no intention to make you a victim of Igr, after all he is not willing to human” said Prince Elio
“Do not fabricate as if you already know the beast!” the Princess Quely
Prince Elio sighed, he looked at Igr who was still biting the bone. Prince Elio and Igr had contact before Igr resumed his meal.
“I already know him, he is a tiger who has always been accused of killing my mother.” Prince Elio said quietly.
“A-what do you mean? There's no way it's the tiger, you made up right? Besides why are you keeping it instead of killing it?” ask Princess Quely
“No, because it wasn't him who killed my mother. There's a long story about this, I can't tell you right now. Maybe next time..”
Prince Elio stood up and approached Igr to gently stroke his head, leaving Princess Quely grimacing in horror.
“What matters is that you already know the core and Igr already know you.” continued Prince Elio
“Does King Aiden know about this tiger?” princess Quely tried to stand up from her seat
“No, only you and I know about Igr” Prince Elio said
“Is he tame?” ask Princess Quely
Prince Elio nodded and smiled at Igr.
“He's tame, he's been connected to me since my mom died. And Igr has been my best friend since childhood. Come closer, Igr likes new friends.” said Prince Elio
“No, I don't know what it means to like a new friend. Who knows what it means to prey on new friends, right?” oceh Princess Quely
“As far as you are, Igr has met you at least if he sees you he did not directly prey.” replied Prince Elio.
“She is not sane presumably, how could she be close friends with a white tiger.” muttered Princess Quely slowly.
