Chapter Ninety four: Thieves in the Palace??

1058 Words
"Seer Ana, there are two thieves in the store room and they seemed to have some special kind of powers." The first maid who had saw Greg and Kyra in the food store room, came to report what she saw to Anabelle. "Thieves with special powers? Are you sure they are thieves and, how did they enter the palace without the guards knowing, despite all the tight securities." Anabelle asked but the maid was clueless of what to say. "I don't know about that but I know that they have eaten a lot of food out of the foods that are stored inside the store room." The maid reported. "Really??" Anabelle asked surprisingly. "Yes mistress, I think they have been here since yesterday night. Perhaps they followed after the van that brought the foods from the market. Or maybe they..." The maid paused, finding it difficult to speak. She knew she was crossing her boundary and she dare not speak what was presently on her mind out or else it will be the end of her. "Speak up. What did you have to say?" Anabelle requested. "No, it is nothing. I wasn't saying anything." The maid quickly denied. "Are you lying to my face. I heard you saying maybe they.. 'Maybe they' has a clause that follows after it, so I don't expect you to say that you are not saying anything when I heard you saying an uncompleted statement. Complete the statement or you are in a deep trouble." Anabelle said, requesting for the maid to speak up. "I'm so sorry Mistress. I didn't mean to say this, it was just a simple suspicion that I've been having since yesterday." The maid answered. "And that is..??" Anabelle asked again. She was tired of waiting and immediately, her hands started glowing golden and smokes started floating about from her golden hands. It is like the golden hand she have is hot, to be able to give out smoke like that. "Please mistress I will speak, don't use the hand of truth on me. I will say the truth." the maid cried so much that Mia was starting to pity her. She thought that Anabelle was a gentle person but seeing her getting so angry like this means that she is not a patient monarch and she wouldn't tolerate any nonsense and stupidity from anyone. "Please let her go. She is sober enough. And you don't need to force her to speak what she mistakenly said out." Mia said, trying to set the girl free. "Conqueror, I didn't expect you to be this soft towards people. If you keep on going like this, people will think you aren't fit to be a leader to them. So, I would advise you to act more sharply and cruel than you always do, cause your kindness might fail you in the future." Anabelle said. "But you should still let the maid go, she didn't do anything wrong that deserves punishment." Mia said. "Yes, please set her free so we could continue our discussion.," Roselle said as he joined mia in the begging for the freedom of the palace maid." Roselle begged. Anabelle was silent as she don't know what to do next but since two officials had started begging for her, she have no other reason but to set her free. ' If only the conqueror knows what the maid is about to say, she would have been so mad at her and wouldn't have requested for me to let her go Scot free.' Anabelle thought within herself. She had thought that the conqueror wasn't able to know what the maid was thinking about and had almost spoken out due to how confident she was about the matter. Unknown to Anabelle that the conqueror could also read the minds of people. The maid thanked the conqueror before leaving but a few seconds later, the maid came back to speak her mind. She felt bad, because the person she was speaking ill of was the one who had saved her. "I'm so sorry for what I'm going to say. I don't want to say it but I feel guilty not telling you what I said previously. What I wanted to say before was that,..." The maid said but she was interrupted by Mia. "Don't worry, I already know what you want to say. I'll deal with the thieves myself and I'll prove to you that I didn't bring any thief along with me while we were coming." Mia said, confident on what she was about to do. Anabelle was silent, she was wondering how she knew what her maid was talking. Perhaps she could read minds like her? Mia, Roselle, Anabelle and the maid got out of the room given to the conqueror to stay in as they head for the store room that was at the second floor of the palace. But on their way to the place, they could hear the guards shouting and grunting in pain as they were beaten up by Greg and the two Kyra's. "Give me more information about the thieves. Their gender, and power." Anabelle requested. "Sure mistress. One is a male while the other is a female. The male is a fighter but I don't know what his superpower is, while the female has a special power of cloning herself and slowing down movements." The maid answered. "Slowing down movements??" Roselle asked. "Yes, or do you know anyone with that kind of power?" The maid asked Roselle. "Actually, we don't know anyone who can clone herself but we did know someone that can slow down movements. But, are you sure that the female is one and not two?" Roselle asked. "It's only a female and can male." The maid answered. "I hope you're not thinking what I'm thinking." Roselle whispered into the ears of the conqueror. ' Could it really be Kyra or maybe there's someone like her who have the same powers like her. The only thing that is confusing me is the cloning ability that the person have. And Kyra don't have such an ability apart from the slowing ability that she have.' Mia said to Roselle, using her mind link skill. "I can't wait to see who that person is." Roselle said. ' She might be useful in defeating Arthur.' Mia thought.
