Chapter 67. NET {26}:- Rune Monarch 3.
"Thank you, my friend. Please allow me to become Princess Elena's attendant for just one night."
"You conniving little Kraken, you're trying to betray me by informing Elena about our plans, aren't you?"
"Tsk," Karen clicked her tongue, surprised by how Ariel was able to discover her plan even before she could execute them.
If she had successfully become Elena's attendant for one night, she would have been able to inform Elena about Ariel's desire to grab the prince and run.
Ariel would definitely be banned from entering the elf kingdom ever again, and Karen would be rewarded with the position of being Elena's personal attendant.
This way, she would be able to stay close to the prince as well.
However, Ariel had discovered her plans now, so there was no way she was going to get what she wanted.
"Your Majesty is surprisingly smart on rare occasions like these," Karen muttered to herself, her voice barely louder than a whisper.
"Huh? What did you say?"
"Nothing, Your Majesty."
"You liar!! I heard that, so that means all this time, you thought I wasn't..." Ariel continued to yell at Karen. Meanwhile, Evelyn couldn't contain the smile on her face.
She could hear everything Ariel and Karen were saying even though they were whispering to each other.
She wasn't bothered by what they were saying because she knew her best friend would never do anything to make her upset.
Ariel valued her friends a lot and since the both of them were best friends, Ariel would always put her friend's needs before hers, but Evelyn understood why Ariel wanted to bring Orion to her kingdom.
During the war, which affected all kingdoms, there was a time when the vampire race of the demon kingdom was regarded as the strongest race ever.
Mia hadn't been happy about this because she had really wanted to make her beloved master very happy, but because she couldn't teach him, she gave up on the idea of Orion learning Kitsune magic.
However, now that Orion was using her family's lowest-tier magic, Mia couldn't wait to spar and train with him to teach him even cooler and stronger battle techniques.
Mia continued to watch as the battle finally came to an end, with Luna dropping to her knees and yielding the fight.
Ganesha announced Orion as the winner, and the crowd cheered and praised Orion as the Junior Noble Elf Tournament finally came to an end, with Orion being the ultimate champion.
Mia immediately rose from her seat without her even knowing.
Her tails wagged excitedly while she watched her beloved master being praised and cheered on.
She swiftly turned towards Evelyn to see if she could see Orion now.
"I'm sorry Mia, baby still has one more thing to do. I promise to allow you to see him tomorrow the moment the final activity of the tournament is over," Evelyn patted Mia's head with a smile on her face.
"Okay," Mia replied sadly.
She had a lot of questions she wanted to ask Orion, but since she couldn't see him right now, Mia decided to take a mental note of everything she wanted to ask him tomorrow, but the first thing she would do the moment Orion was done with the tournament was to give him a really huge hug because she had missed him so much.
Even though it had only been four days since she saw him, it felt like months since she last saw her beloved master.
With her mind made up on what she wanted to do, Mia slowly returned back to her seat.
Watching Mia, Ariel couldn't help but wonder why such a little kid had a really high spiritual energy flowing within her body.
That was when she finally discovered that Mia was actually a spirit guardian, but the moment this thought came to mind, Ariel also noticed Mia's nine tails and her eyes widened even more.
Ever since she visited Evelyn, Ariel never really paid too much attention to Mia and what she really was, but now that she was noticing the amount of mana, aura, and spiritual energy flowing within Mia, a sudden thought came to mind, and she had to ask.
"Are you a Kami-no-kai?"
