A Clue
Seraphina is so sure of her principle, for her all human degrees are the same, nothing is different. Despite the fact the blood flowing within her body was still closely related to the gods.
Judy, Owen, Joan and Rupert also smiled at the sweet smile that she showed. It was no exaggeration to think that the crown prince would definitely become a great king in the future.
"Okay, looks like I have to go home now. Judy, let's go home!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"See you? I'll be waiting for information from you all!" she said.
"Of course, we will definitely try!" Owen said confidently, knowing that he had promised the crown prince and that Owen would try to keep that promise.
Seraphina and Judy parted ways with the three young men, returning to Sapphire Palace through a secret door. She was not disappointed because at least she had managed to get a clue that the forest at the foot of the volcano was not far from the sapphire palace and what she had to do next was find a way to enter the forest without being noticed.
"Your Majesty!" said Judy calling out Seraphina who seemed to be walking absentmindedly.
"Ah ... yes? what's wrong Judy?"
"Will you go into the forest, Your Majesty?" asked Judy. Her face indicated that she was a little hesitant at what she said who had changed her mind about going into the forest.
"I don't know," she replied. As Judy was worried, she still had a strong desire to enter the forest.
She knew that she couldn't just wait for someone else's help because it was something else. This involved Xavier's health more and more days and more and it makes Seraphina afraid, what if Xavier leaves? She felt that she had no reason to live, because the only source of hope and happiness for Evangelia was in Xavier.
"Your Majesty, I beg you not to go to that forest!" asked Judy. Being too worried, Judy's eyes began to wet.
"Judy? you're really worried about me, aren't you?" She smiled proudly at Judy's confession.
Seeing the prince's strange smile made Judy blush again. Her red cheeks got even redder every time her heart thumped because of this figure walking beside her.
"Of ... of course I'm worried about you, Your Majesty! that ... um ... that's ... because ..." Judy couldn't continue her words. Her heart was filled with a strange feeling of restlessness.
Judy realized that she wasn't a little girl anymore. In a few months she will turn 15 years old. At this age it was clear enough for her to be in love. Several years ago, maybe Judy was just embarrassed because she was a child, but now that embarrassment has turned into a strange awkwardness.
"Why my heart pounding all the time? Judy realize, you can't go on like this. You're just a servant, you can't have this feeling!" Judy thought, she tried her best to suppress her feelings whenever the high hopes arose.
However, every time Judy tried to convince herself that she shouldn't think too much, the prince's charming face made everything falter. Judy glanced quietly at the figure beside her and it made Judy realize that it was impossible for her not to fall in love with him.
"Prince Xavier!"
"Yes, what's wrong Judy?" asked Nathania in a soft voice.
Judy felt that she was very silly, had a moment to want to express her feelings to the prince, but Judy was strong enough to endure that stupid desire.
"No ... not so!" she said nervously.
"You have something to say? just say it, I'll listen!"
"How is this? there's no way I could say such stupid things to Prince Nathan, she will definitely hate me!" Judy thought.
"Judy? what's wrong? you look really weird today!"
"I'm sorry, Your Majestiy! I'm just very worried about you," she said evasively. It turned out that Judy really wasn't ready to admit that she was really in love.
"You really are a very good friend, Judy. You're worried about me, even though I'm with you. Thank you!"
"Deg ... deg ... deg ..."
Judy's heartbeat sounded racing even more as if she were riding a horse that was running fast without a clear direction. Once again, Judy was speechless whenever her eyes caught the angel's face with her dazzling heavenly smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I'm very happy to hear that."

"How about this? what should I do? Nathan is still suffering and I just lie on this bed and can't do anything!" Nathania was deep in thought. Even though she was afraid of the forest, her desire to find the silver leaf plant grew stronger.
Moreover, she already knew that the forest door was only 1 km away from the backyard of the Sapphire Palace, too close for her to change her mind now. No matter the terrible rumors about the forest that supposedly she was possessed by the demons.
"No, I can't keep quiet anymore. If I don't find it soon, Nathan will ..."
"Knock ... knock ... knock ..."
Someone knocked on the door, from a sound that was heard, somehow it made Nathania seem to have guessed who was standing at the door of her room.
"Please come in!" she said, raising her head from the pillow.
Jia opened the door and entered carrying a tray filled with a cup of tea and Nathania's favorite cheese cake. Thinking too much made Nathania forget that it was already evening and time to drink tea and eat her favorite snacks.
"Jia, why don't you just come in?"
"Ahahaha ... I thought you might be taking a shower, Your Majesty!" she said with a chuckle.
"Time for tea, huh? today what?"
"Darjeeling Tea,"
"Wow ... by the way, where is my mother?"
"The Queen is drinking tea with the King in the rose garden. The Queen looks happy because the King asked her directly,"
"Is that so? what about Xavier? is he getting better?"
Jia suddenly became silent, her face became gloomy when discussing Prince Nathan's condition, especially if Princess Nathania asked her directly. This was a very difficult statement for her to answer.
"Prince Xavier's condition is still not getting better, I think we can only pray for him!"
"Is ... is that so? that means things are getting worse!" Nathania was in shock. Her fear of losing the person she loved most grew. This made Nathania not want to waste any more time.
"Princess..."
"Jia, can I ask you something?"
"Of course! what is that, Princess?"
"Can you bring me the wig Xavier used and some of the clothes he has?"
