Chapter 72 - 35

Princess Freya went to the forest in the academy area. Within the forest is a mansion that blends in with the surrounding nature. When Princess Freya reached the front of the mansion, she immediately knocked on the door.

Knock... Knock... Knock...

"Excuse me...." But no matter how many times he knocked and shouted, there was still no answer from within the mansion.

(Is no one inside?)

Princess Freya intends to leave that place, but she felt an uncomfortable feeling that seemed to be telling her not to leave there. When she tried to open the door of the mansion.

Click...

The door was unlocked and Princess Freya entered the mansion.

"Excuse me..." She shouted there but still no answer.

She searched every corner of the mansion until she finally saw a door at the back. She opened it and felt the fresh air and calming atmosphere. She kept walking through the back area of ​​the mansion and suddenly she stopped.

There she saw 2 people, sitting opposite each other. Princess Freya knows them. One of them was the person she was looking for. But what they did leave her dumbfounded. Anger, jealousy, and hate. All her negative emotions came out accompanied by a bloodthirsty aura.

"What are you two doing!?" She screamed from deep in her lungs releasing all the emotions she was feeling.

***

Ziel and Kalya stopped their spiritism practice when they saw Princess Freya approaching them. When Princess Freya saw the way Kalya was dressed, she was stunned. Even as a fellow woman she was fascinated by her. But she shook her head and shook off the feeling.

"Princess Freya, what are you doing here?" Kalya asks her as if nothing happened.

"Ooh, so am I not allowed to come here? Or am I interrupting your intimate time?" Princess Freya showered her with questions.

"What are you saying!?" Kalya tried to dodge it, but her blushing face betrayed her.

"if you didn't do it then why are you wearing clothes like that? Do you want to tease your student?" Princess Freya looked at the clothes Kalya was wearing from top to bottom. She never imagined that Kalya who usually wore a cold face in the academy would wear clothes that would invite perverted gazes from men.

"Watch your mouth! We elf used to dress like this to get closer to nature. And what I did with him had nothing to do with you!?" Kalya started to get annoyed with the harsh words of Princess Freya.

"No! Of course, it has something to do with me!!" As if being provoked by Kalya's words, Princess Freya shouted louder than before.

"What..." Kalya was about to reply to her words but Ziel's voice immediately stopped her.

"Enough." Ziel stopped them before their argument got heated.

Both of them fell silent and neither dared to utter a single word.

"Then, what do you want by coming here, Princess Freya?" He wanted to resume his training after taking care of the girl in front of him.

"What? So I can't come here if I don't have a purpose?" Princess Freya puffed her cheeks. Her attitude towards Ziel is very different when she talks to Kalya. But Ziel just kept quiet and didn't respond. Instead of being disappointed, Princess Freya stuck her tongue out at him. Kalya was surprised to see Princess Freya's attitude which changed drastically when she spoke to Ziel.

"Okay... Okay... I'll tell you. Ken... Can you unseal my brother?" Princess Freya asked him nervously. She was afraid that Ziel would be angry with her.

"Hmm... What do you mean?" Ziel pretended not to know what she was saying.

"You don't need to pretend, my father has brought a royal mage to check on my brother's condition. And he said my brother's power is sealed. The principal tried to force it open but couldn't. He said it can only be opened by the person who gave the seal or someone stronger than him. The person in the academy who is stronger than the principal, I can only think of you." Princess Freya looked down while drawing a circle on the ground with her feet. Her current actions were so adorable.

"You seem to be wrong about something." Ziel tried to justify what she said.

"What's wrong with my words?" Princess Freya tilted her head in confusion at his word.

"If it's someone stronger than the principal, there are 2 in your class." Ziel told her honestly.

"Uh, what do you mean?" She still doesn't understand what he is saying. Kalya just silently listened to him because she knew who he meant.

"In your class, there are 2 gods from the divine race, they should be stronger than the principal." Ziel explained nonchalantly to him.

""What!?"" Not only Princess Freya, Kalya who heard that was also shocked. All she knew from Silphy was that people were dangerous. But she didn't know how great their strength was and what race they came from. This is new information for her. But what shocked her the most was when Ziel mentioned the word 'divine race' her face darkened.

(Are you sure about what you said!?)

Silphy manifested herself after hearing Ziel's words. From the look on his face, he looked very panicked.

"Of course." Ziel answered briefly.

(Ah, isn't this academy in danger, Kalya?)

Silphy asked Kalya who had been looking down. She knew what she was going through at that time. Silphy just shook her head and didn't pursue an answer from her.

"Hey, why are you so gloomy, teacher?" Princess Freya saw Kalya suddenly fell silent then tried to tease her.

"This is none of your business." Kalya looked at her coldly. She subconsciously let out her pressure on her.

"Uh, I'm sorry." Princess Freya stepped back in fear.

"I know you have your situation. But are you sure you want to take it out on her?" He didn't care about their argument. But this will spoil the mood of Kalya in practicing spiritism.

"Hmm... Sorry." Kalya immediately came back to her senses and tried to regain her composure.

"You go back to the mansion first, I'm sure we can't continue training if you are like that." He can't force her to train in such a state.

"Okay." Kalya walked back to her mansion accompanied by Silphy who was flying above her head.

"So, don't you want to go back to your dorm as well?" He looked at princess Freya who was still standing in front of him smiling. She quickly returned to her usual self after seeing Ziel defend her.

"So can you unseal my brother? I'm sure he's learned his lesson." She hoped that Ziel would agree to her request this time.

"I'll think about it. You come back first, I'll continue my training here." Ziel returned to where he was sitting before and started to close his eyes to feel the presence of spirit particles around him.

"Okay, I'll wait for good news from you." Princess Freya said cheerfully as she jogged out of the place back to her dormitory.

Ziel is currently focusing on his spiritism practice. He could still sense the presence of spirit particles even without the help of Kalya. But certainly not as clear as to when he was helped by her. When he was condensing the spirit particles into a spirit circle. Suddenly Silphy manifested herself near him.

"What do you want from me?" Ziel stopped his training and looked at Silphy.

(Can I have your time?)

Silphy floated around Ziel. And finally stopped right in front of his face.

"Yes." Ziel answered her briefly.

(You know that Kalya is an elf royal family?)

She had to confirm it before proceeding with her story.

"I know a little about it." He answered honestly to Silphy's question.

(Currently, the Elf Kingdom is isolating itself from the outside world. Do you know why?)

Silphy looked sad as she said that.

"I do not know." Ziel just shook his head. He wasn't interested in hearing the story. But since he came here to see him there must be something important.

(Kalya, is the younger sister of the current elf queen. You once asked why the elf royal family is in the human region right? The answer is because she fled from that place. The current elf kingdom doesn't belong to the elf, but the one who claims to be divine races)

Silphy cleared her throat and began to continue her story.

(While the previous Elf king and queen were still alive, the elf kingdom was open to the outside world. But one day, two people who claimed to be from the divine race came. They said that they were there to learn about the elf lifestyle. But after their arrival, one by one the residents of the elf kingdom disappeared without a trace. After the Kingdom searched for it, they finally found a clue that they were kidnapped. And the people who kidnapped them were those people. They kidnapped the elf for their research. The elf warriors were immediately gathered to attack their hideout. But... They all didn't come back)

Silphy was silent for a while to see Ziel's expression. But she was disappointed that he kept his poker face.

(One day, one of those people came to the castle and asked for the elf queen's cooperation in their research. They boldly asked one of the royal members to cooperate because the royal member was descended from the High elves. And the person they asked for was Kalya, to be precise Cattleya is her real name)

Silphy's face darkened after remembering that. She was silent for a long time before finally continuing her story.

(They refused. And finally, a fight ensued with the two of them. Unfortunately, they were too strong. So the elf king and queen surrendered and decided to sacrifice Kalya. But before that could happen, Kalya managed to escape and finally arrived in human territory. Since at that time, the elf kingdom isolated itself, and the news was heard that her sister was the current queen. The king and queen may have been the subject of research. For some reason, it seems they need a lot of high elf samples for their research. They are still hunting for Kalya to this day. And Kalya is determined to return to her kingdom to reclaim her homeland)

Silphy then flew closer to Ziel's face.

(So, can you help Kalya? Not to take over the elf kingdom back. But only to protect her while she is here. Even though she has lived a very long time, she is a stubborn and reckless type of person. I beg of you)

Silphy then kneeled in front of ziel. He was silent for a while then spoke to Silphy.

"Alright, as long as she's here and teaches me spiritism, she'll be my responsibility. Besides that, she also has to listen to my words. Did you hear that, Cattleya?" Ziel narrowed his eyes looking at Silphy's eyes.
