Agnes was walking down the forest; she had fair share of knights escorting her after she has gained title of The Crown Princess. She sighed thinking about how her friends’ eyes were curious wanting to know all the things that went inside the throne room; all of their questions made her mentally tired.
Right now, she is walking down the forest wanting to find if she can find SANGEEVNE plant. It is really hard to find even in her place; the organisation kept the stock only for her. Now that she is here, she needs more of it because she will need to train as much as she can.
Knights looked at Agnes back, they can’t deny the fact that she is very pretty but just being pretty is not enough for being The Crown Princess. They clearly did not like the idea of her being their potential next Ruler.
Agnes noticed Knights heated gazes but did not pay any mind to it, she has much more important work to do. Lucy right now must be looking through the army and plotting against the knights so she can capture them as soon as possible. She took a deep breath and released it slowly she never wanted to get involved in this mess but she could not stop herself from helping them.
Knights immediately stopped as they saw Agnes stop, she narrowed her eyes and stared in a particular direction, she heard lot of horses coming towards them. Knights suddenly surrounded her and drew their swords out for protecting her. Agnes eyes widened she clearly knows that they do not like her being their next Ruler yet here they are, protecting her.
Around twenty soldiers stopped and surrounded the six knights that were protecting her. She clearly saw that knights are out numbered yet they were not wavering at all. She smiled a little at this act of bravery or stupidity; she cannot decipher.
“Elders have summoned Lady Agnes.”
One of the knights on horse said while the knights protecting her, narrowed their eyes, they knew that elder will not be able to do anything to her but what these knights will do to her on the way to castle is unknown; whether she will be able to return to castle alive is also unknown.
“Very well we will escort Our Lady back”
Agnes smirked these knights are not bad, she will probably ask their names later.
“You do not need to escort her, we will do.”
Now this was the time their doubt was confirmed they will not escort her to castle they will kill her on the way and probably them too, to make it seem like someone else attacked.
“We shall remain with Lady at all times, these are Queen’s orders, I think elders must be aware of that."
Agnes, who was not paying attention to the conversation at all, was looking around as she finally sat the eyes on what she was looking; she finally found it. Sangeevne plant was right behind a knight who came to capture her. She needs that plant as soon as possible.
“I’m not coming with you, tell your elders. I have important things to do”
Agnes suddenly spoke making elders’ knight fume with anger, how dare she disrespect the elders. They drew out their swords as they said.
“Lady Agnes you will come with us by hook or by crook”
Which made Agnes smile broadly as she titled her head and said in a mysterious tone.
“I would like to see you try.”
