Chapter 180 - 172

[Main Mission Progress: 95%

Side Mission Progress: 50%]

The silver haired young man ignored the sudden pop-up in her field of vision while she looked out from the window of the train.

Shadows of the trees entered and passed from her sight like how moments turned into passing memories. 

'It was almost over.'

Chun stared in a daze while she started to think what she would do next after going back. 

It was already her fourth month in the school, last month was like a wheel of fate. The mysterious and powerful Royal Family didn't interfere with her decision but somehow it spread out to Charm Excellence about her existence. The ninth prince came back and now 'he' was miraculously a Charmer. It was one out of a hundred phenomenon that something like a late potential was discovered. 

The silver haired young man just shrugged when she was asked about how did she developed to have a charm after the failed coming-of-age ceremony where the charm crystal identified that she was a non-charmer.

She even remembered her conversation with the Supreme Ruler after finding out the truth of their birth, the ninth prince was deemed to be the perfect heir, the invisible crown prince. Which all of the abandoning Hunan to the Snow Palace act was just a scheme of the Supreme Ruler. Chun didn't ask him directly but she knew that she was right.

That's why the manual book that the snobbish system that had given her was lacking, lacking of reasonable plot. Though Xuan had been nonchalant about this, it seemed that he didn't care if Chun failed this world. 

But the silver haired young man didn't care as well, and as she was already brought here then the only choice she have was to finish this mission with success. It's in the blood of a Shuho to not let anything down.

This was just an under a test world but Chun had taken it seriously which proved that she was a very professional employee, maybe the evaluation should be a perfect score. 

Many things were running around in her mind to keep her sane from missing home, suddenly a knock on the table in front of her awaken her from reality.

The second prince was smiling gently at her while he annoying rubbed her head. Chun didn't think that getting her identity out to the world to see was gifting her this kind of annoyance.

She was even creeped when was still in Charm Excellence as the first prince who seemed to haven't shown his face in school was pestering her. He would always asked her about her well-being, her health, living conditions, and all which sometimes annoyed the silver haired young man.

Although Chun was thankful that the first prince was a Student Affairs Representative which he has so many workloads that he could be rarely had a free time.

She hadn't expect that the seemed to be indifferent background of the Royal Family from her inherited memory of the ninth prince and the description of the manual were just a side dish, the main course wasn't even presented yet. 

She had a second time meeting with the Supreme Ruler which Chun knew it wasn't a coincidence, the way the aloof aura of the other had lightened a bit and the hidden joy in his eyes. They met at the back forest of Charm Excellence where the Royal Residence was nearer, three days ago. It was also the day of her departure for the Intercompetition after coming out as a first ranker from the annual competition. The silver haired young man just went at the back forest to try her tenth time of fusion experiment involving her charms. 

Unknowingly, the silver haired young man just turned around after testing its intensity when she saw a familiar casual suit and the familiar stature. It was the Supreme Ruler who seemed to be observing her, Chun wasn't surprise if the other had knew her full abilities as the ninth prince was created by him, successfully.

"The way you inputted your air charm while being ȧssisted by a little bit of intensity of your water charm is good but needs improvement." 

The Supreme Ruler didn't shy away with estrangement as he started to guide the silver haired young man with patience. 

"Yes.. that's right.. yes. The cooling process should be right. The input of energy is perfect. Put out your hands and …"

Boom!

A poor tree was the victim of a terrible unattempted onslaught of a small steeled ice strike. 

Chun felt a hand rubbing her head, she immediately saw that it was the Supreme Ruler. She was unaware on how did he neared their distance. She slightly stepped back which the hand fell and retracted.

The Supreme Ruler: …

Magnus awkwardly coughed and regained his composure. He then turned to the ninth prince who had a suspicious gaze directed at him.

He ignored it while he spoke, "I will teach you a good offense."

Hearing that, the silver haired young man lowered her animosity to the other and silently stare with inquiring eyes. Magnus almost chuckled with this cute puppy-look but he held back. It wouldn't be good if his dignified image in front his heir would break down.

The ninth prince needed inspiration and he would be that inspiration. And slowly cultivating their feelings was the best choice. 

Before the silver haired young man bid good bye, Magnus didn't forget to warn her.

"Your royal siblings seemed to annoying you these days. You should be used to it, although they had different traits. They had this instinct to care for you as their youngest. It is a side effect of my powers." As they were created by the charms of the Supreme Ruler, it could be said that they were connected not by bloodline but by the swirling charms in their body.

But the silver haired young man couldn't help but ask.

"Then why they didn't visit me in the Snow Palace?" There was no treble in her voice as the steady tone was opposite to the case of a prince who suffered there.

"Did you suffer there?" Instead of answering it, Magnus shot out a question.

Chun thought about her experience in the Snow Palace and even recalled the experience of the original owner from the inherited memories. Although it was described that the ninth prince was forgotten in that cold haven. He never suffered, it might be because of Ara or some other reasons.

The silver haired young man didn't finish there as she asked another question, "Are they like me?"

She had been curious if the other royal siblings were like her who was a full-charmer.

Magnus didn't expect this inquiry but he still satisfied the silver haired young man's curiosity.

"No. You're the perfect heir." He smiled, faintly.

Series of steps were heard and voices were heard outside the train cabin. Chun realized that they were here. They had arrived.

The second prince who acted like a manager of the team relayed to them to pack up as they would be going out.

"The carriage is waiting for us. Hurry up."

Chun was the last one to get out of the train while her teammates were excited and exhausted. They were excited for the intercompetition and exhausted due to the long ride. Because of the inconvenience of riding a flying caravan to travel, they picked the second fastest transportation, the train.

"I almost vomit due to boredom!" Lemon exclaimed while trying to push the slightly leaning Berry from him. The strawberry haired youth didn't care about this small disturbance while he continued with his sleep.

The usual glaring girl Lollipop was now not doing her routine of looking at Chun as she was asleep in Notalie's ŀȧp. Even Notalie was keeping her eyes open, drowsiness was about to take to on her.

Fortunately the carriage was expansive that it was able to accommodate them. 

Chun was by the door where the window was located, beside her was the captain who had her indifferent expression. On the other side seated next to her was the second prince who was busy tapping with his communicator.

Beyond the lofty huge gates was a twin towers which people wearing knight outfits were on top of it. They having a lookout and even inspecting the carriages that would enter.

The Alliance carriage went in and what greeted them were another group of uniformed students as they went down. 

Chun looked out and saw the big structures of building of the school while she had a one thought.

'Finally.'
