Chapter 394 - Why Don’t You Like Him?

Ever since the Wizard Kingdom citizens had come to know about the fact that their Queen had stayed amongst the humans, there were many parents who wanted to send their children to the Human Realm for a year or two in order to learn about the ways of that world. It was because they thought that Adrianna was a very composed woman who had very high standards of perceiving life. She was honest and had a very cool temperament. All decisions that she took were very valuable and well thought of. They saw how she commanded them to victory in the recent war at such a young age and so it must have got to do something with her interaction with the Human Realm. 

Since many of those parents were also in ministry jobs, hence they thought that they should discuss it with the Queen. 

The Ministry Member who came to discuss this matter was in charge of overseeing matters of education and welfare. He bowed and when Adrianna nodded, he sat down on the sofa opposite to her. 

He said, "My Queen, there has been a special demand from the many parents from across the various levels for their children."

Adrianna already liked the topic because it was concerning children. "What is it?" she asked. 

Dmitri also listened to this conversation intently. 

The Ministry Member continued, "Since our Queen has successfully stayed amongst the humans in the Human Realm, many parents feel that even their kids can stay in the Human Realm. This is because they would learn to control their feelings and become more patient."

Adrianna smiled at the thought. Perhaps these people thought that Adrianna's character was developed because she lived with the humans. Although that wasn't true but living with humans did make her very patient. She couldn't use her magic every now and then for any purpose. She had to depend on her intelligence in tackling with people over there. There was a sad smile on her face when she remembered Pryce and how she had to deal with her. 

"Parents want that their children should stay amongst the humans for a period of one or two years, whatever they liked and this should be done as soon as possible," said the Ministry Member. 

Adrianna looked at Dmitri and asked, "What do you think about it?" 

Dmitri was very surprised when he heard that it was the Human Realm that shaped Adrianna's character. These people knew so little about her. He smirked and said, "Adrianna is a werewolf. Yes, she did attend the school and college with humans but do you really think that it was the humans that helped in shaping her character? Character is something that is taught by the parents primarily." 

"I agree with you my King, but other outer factors also influence," reasoned the Ministry Member.

Dmitri didn't want to stay how her father and siblings treated Adrianna. If it had been for them she was better dead than alive. As a young girl she always ran away from them and stayed with Ed. "Yes, lots of outer factors!" he repeated. 

The Ministry Member was confused about why was the King so upset. So he started looking at his Queen. 

Adrianna replied, "I think this is a nice idea but the wizards and witches are different from humans. It would be very difficult for them to adjust." 

"Yes, My Queen. We do understand the hazards of sending the kids to that realm but unless we send them over there, how can we know that they won't adjust," argued the Ministry Member. 

"Arthur," said Adrianna, "If the parents are so keen, I don't see why shouldn't the kids go and interact with the humans. However, all this needs to be sorted out very carefully. We don't want humans to panic and we don't want them to know that we exist. Because if they would know the consequences would be disastrous. Greed for power would become prominent amongst them and they would use the wizards and witches for their own individual needs. So we have to all sit down and formulate policies regarding this idea, if it were to come in action."

"Yes, My Queen, I agree. It is just an idea and it would be great if it was given a further thought."

"Sure," she replied and Arthur took his leave.

Adrianna turned to Dmitri and said, "Why were you so rude? I think it is a nice idea."

"Adri, when he spoke about shaping kids' character, I remembered how your father and siblings treated you. Didn't your father send to wage a war against me only because he was unable to fight on his own? He had no interest in your well-being. Didn't your sister leave you in Alex's Cave to fend for yourself at the age of three? And what about your brother Reinjie? Didn't he force you to get married to that good for nothing person from whom I saved you?" Dmitri spoke all that with anger in his eyes. 

Adrianna held his hand and caressed it. After a moment's pause she said, "Everything is behind us and all those people who conspired against us have now met with their fate. So please darling, don't get angry. It is of no use." 

The way she said and looked in his eyes, it calmed him. He looked down in his lap and then changing the topic said, "When are we going to eat food?" 

She laughed knowing that he wanted to go back home. 

They chatted for a while. Dmitri asked her casually, "Can you read the minds of everyone out here?"

"Hmm," she replied as she continued to caress him. 

"Then tell me what is Niiya thinking?" he asked. 

Adrianna left his hand immediately. Angrily she said, "No more talking about Niiya!" 

Dmitri put his hands up and said, "Okay, Okay!" Then he looked at Ziu and said, "Somehow I don't like that man either." 

Adrianna shook her head. "Enough Dmitri!" 

"No, not in the way I don't like Niiya… but in a different way…" 

"What do you mean?" she asked. 

"Well, I don't think he is my love rival because I know you never even looked at him," he chuckled and said. 

"Then why don't you like him?"
