Isidorus looked at Dmitri. What he said definitely made sense but just because Adrianna was a queen he became extra worried. "Isidorus, Dmitri is right. No one knows about my curse and so if I will go to the werewolf realm during night time and return back to the wizard kingdom at the break of dawn, who would come to know? Let us keep it low profile and let it go forward as it was going earlier," reiterated Adrianna. "It would only attract undue attention if we involve other people. If you will send security with me, there will be others who would come to know of my condition. It is not safe because you cannot guarantee that they would keep it to themselves."
Isidorus took a deep breath. Her logic was very clear and correct. He looked at her, worry etched all over face, yet he reluctantly said, "Okay…"
Adrianna was happy to see that Isidorus wasn't giving as hard a time to her about security as she had thought. She continued after this topic was over. "There is another thing that I wanted to say."
"What is Adrianna?" asked Isidorus again irritated about the fact that he was getting delayed for gardening. There were some primroses that needed trimming urgently. Besides the little bunny that was hopping around in the garden had been eating every possible leaf that it could find in its way. He was damaging his beautiful roses by the minute. He wanted to convert him back to the gardener like yesterday! What Adrianna said next was again shocking.
"I want Professor Ziu to become the Prime Minister of the Wizard Realm," said Adrianna looking at Isidorus as if he would refute her immediately.
Isdorus frowned and so did Dmitri. "Why do you want Ziu to be the Prime Minister? Aren't there better candidates?" asked Dmitri, obviously becoming jealous all over again. "I suggest you keep a witch as your Prime Minister this time. It will send a good signal amongst the females of the Wizard Kingdom."
Adrianna looked at him with narrowed eyes.
Isididorus was also doubtful about him, "Adrianna, Ziu is no doubt an intelligent man, but he is also not very reliable. The fact that he chose to stay disguised as someone else other than his original self for so many years is highly questionable. No one has come to know the real reason behind his disguise. I would not suggest a man like that."
"But Professor Ziu has proved that he has all the talent in the world. When he was close to me in the academy, and taught me the spells, I could see how brilliant that man is. I think we must use his powers and intelligence. I have heard that he can cast spells which only a few others can."
"That is right Adrianna but I still doubt him," replied Isidorus to which Dmitri nodded in agreement pretty heavily.
"Tomorrow I am going to the academy. If you like I can enter his cell and know about his past," offered Adrianna with a shrug.
"If you will enter his cell, everyone will come to know about it," said Isidorus, once again aghast at her suggestion.
"No, they won't. I can enter the cell when I am conscious," she said much to Isidorus' amazement.
No other wizard could do that. They had to become unconscious to enter someone's cell. Was Adrianna above all that? This was impossible.
"Well, for now I can easily say that yesterday you encountered a serpent like, half-dragon creature that blasted your floor and entered your bedroom. You sent your spies around and you can't find anything untoward. Did the creature say that you would die in two days if you didn't get me?" asked Adrianna with a smile and a frown looking with questions in her eyes.
Isidorus gaped and stared at his queen. "That- that was- how- how did you know?" he had never encountered a person like her in his life. So powerful that he couldn't fathom her powers or her powers were still to be cultivated? It scared him.
"I just entered your cell. There are way too many things there but for now this is what I want to talk about," she replied.
Isidorus felt n.a.k.e.d in front of the queen. He had rightly chosen the heir of the Wizard Kingdom. At one point he was proud of his decision in pursuing the heir and at the other point he was scared of her. No one other than the crown himself had scared him ever. Was she even more powerful than the crown?
"O- okay, you can enter his cell and check it for yourself," stuttered Isidorus as Dmitri chuckled. Isidorus looked at Dmitri and thought, "Poor Dmitri, his wife is such a powerful witch. How would he sustain her? There was nothing he could ever hide. And he knew that boys loved to have fun around."
Adrianna laughed at Isidorus. "Don't worry, he is the only person in the world who is protected from my magic. Even my wand refuses to throw magic on him. I can definitely throw some spells on him but they have to be beneficial to him or they wouldn't work at all. Instead they would work in his favor."
Isidorus was aware of that part that the spells never worked on the spouses of the rulers, but he was scared about her ability to get into people's mind. He shook his head and said, "Okay Adrianna, do what you like. Is there anything else?"
"Yes, there is," she replied. "I want to visit your bedroom and inspect it. Who would have the guts to threaten the great wizard Isidorus?"
Isidorus smiled. This is what he loved about her. She was overly protective about people who were close to her. "Sure my queen. I suggest that you come to my palace tomorrow after the graduation ceremony."
Adrianna nodded in agreement. Finally Isidorus could go! His primroses! He disappeared immediately.
Adrianna started laughing and snapped her fingers. "What magic have you cast Adri?" asked Dmitri as he got up and started to go to the bedroom. He was extremely tired and wanted to rest. Adrianna laughed heartily!
