In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

202 Aliena’s wishes

“Miss, time to wake up, miss.”

A maid came into Anne’s room and asked her to wake up from her slumber. She open her eyes and saw the beautiful morning by the window. Two maids actually were inside her room, one helped her with her clothes, and the other was busy opening the curtain.

“Miss, would you like to take a warm bath? We are going to help you.” Said the maid.

Anne looks flustered. “What?! No, no, it’s alright, I’ll take a shower instead.”

The two maids were looking at each other, and one of them was trying to convince her again, “Miss, are you sure? We can help you take a bath, our flowery bath will surely…”

Anne was smiling. She nodded her head. “I am positively sure, but thank you for the offer.”

The two maids excuse themselves, and she finally can take a shower in private. After wearing the white shirt paired with an overall, Anne took her book from the nightstand and also doubled check her medicine bag. She was always careful whenever she was on the journey. A huge shadow appear from the window, she took a glance and knew the shadow immediately.

‘Master, captain Brom and your senior named Nathan were fine.’ Said Chikara from the corner of the room.

“Thank you, Chikara.” She smiled at her familiar while giving him his favorite moobull jerky. “Anything else?”

.....

‘Yes, from captain Brom. He is waiting for you to go into the moonlight monster’s nest.’

Groaning, Anne dropped herself to the bed. “Ugh, I’m screwed. Not only do I need to go to the other town, but also this moonlight monster thing.”

‘Master, you can’t be in two places at the same time.’ Chikara said to her with a comical expression on his face.

“Of course, I can’t! oh God, what should I do now?” Before Chikara answered her again, Anne raised her right hand to Chikara. “No Chikara, I wasn’t asking you.”

‘Then, may I go and take some rest, master?’

Anne stand up as fast as she could from her bed, “Wait! Chikara, I need to ask you why you never demand magica from me?”

‘Magica?’ Asked Chikara while he tilted his head, ‘But, Master, you don’t have any magica.’

“Yes, I knew. That’s why I was asking you. I thought familiar will only drain the magica when they use their power, hence why I never asked you to use your power before.” She walks around the room, thinking this through, “Turns out, I was wrong, every familiar after they mature need to eat on the magica of their master, but you…” She approaches her familiar who seems to grow bigger day by day, “You never ate any of my magica, so why did you survive for so long?”

‘What do you mean, master? Eating magica? Why do I need to eat magica, when I can eat yummy food here?’

A frown came from her face. “Well, you need it to survive, right? I mean, you never even absorbed the magica from inside my bangle.”

Somehow, Chikara never even said a word, she give up and asked him to take a rest inside her shadow. She took a sigh and carry her bag outside. One maid asked her to enter the dining room, where everyone was already waiting for her.

King Edward was smiling at her when she enter the room.

“Ah, good morning miss Anne, let me introduce you to our generous host here.” He said to her and introduce her to lord Darren, “This is Albert Darren, and you already know his daughter, lady Aliena Darren.”

Anne bow her head to the lord and took a seat to enjoy the breakfast. Justice, Henry, Xavier, and Vale were already enjoying the food. Xavier, who sat on her right side, approached her and whispered.

“Where were you? We tried so hard to chew slowly so we can accompany you.”

Anne took a glance and whispered back at him, “Chikara’s back. I asked him to check on Nathan and Brom.”

“How are they?” Whispered Vale, who sat on her left side. “They were alright?”

“Don’t worry, they were fine.” Anne patted Vale’s hand, making him smirk at Xavier.

Gasping, Xavier glared at her, “How come you touched his hand and not mine?”

Anne just rolled her eyes and continued to eat her breakfast. Justice and Henry from the other side were staring at her. After last night’s heart-to-heart conversation, they finally put a word for their relationship. Although the future is still uncertain, at least they have each other now.

There was a pair of eyes who observed their interaction for a while. She felt a raging jealousy toward Anne, especially when Justice never even bothered to look on her way when she appeared from the door. Aliena was obsessed with Justice since she saw him at the palace ball, fall in love, and wait for the time to get closer. How happy she was when she thought as the main competition, Lady Heirim got rejected two years ago.

Now she knows why the crown prince rejected the powerful noble. “It was all because of her, right?” Asked Aliena to Henry.

Henry turns around to see her. “Excuse me?”

“I mean, he rejected your sister two years ago. It was because of miss Anne. Am I right?” She tones down the volume of her voice, so as not to distract her father and the king.

Henry chuckles at her, “Well, my lady, Justice wasn’t the only one who got taken by her charm.”

At first, she was puzzled by Henry’s words, but it’s all make sense when they are outside in the courtyard, preparing to go north of the island, the four of them interacted mostly with her, they clamored at her, adored her, and also the sense of protection that the young woman gets from four powerful men by her side. She... envies her.

Aliena stood beside her father as they said goodbye to the host. They look at the carriage, which goes away, leaving the estate. They wave their hands, and when the carriage disappeared from view, Aliena turns her head to her dear father.

“Father, I changed my mind.” Said Aliena.

Lord Darren was shocked to hear his daughter’s words. “Wait, are you sure? Because if we help them, there will be no turning back.”

With a bittered smile, Aliena nods her head to lord Darren. ” I am sure of it. If I can’t get the crown prince, then no one can’t.”
