Witch's Daughter And The Devil's Son Chapter 620 You Should Read The Book

Chapter 620 You Should Read The Book

When it was announced the ship was ready to leave the Selve port, to Seren's surprise, she watched Arlan getting on the ship as well.

"Is Crown Prince Arlan coming with us?" Seren asked.

Drayce nodded. "He loves to travel by sea instead of land."

"It sure is exciting," she agreed, while observing Arlan.

While climbing the ship, Arlan's gaze met with the gazes of the King and the Queen of Megaris. He offered them a light nod and continued to walk ahead with his two knights following him.

Drayce had to leave Seren with her servants as he had things to handle on the board. It was not good to tire her by making her walk along with him on that huge deck.

"Will you be fine with the servant?" he asked before leaving her.

He needed to know if she needed him. There was no way he would leave her when she wanted him by her side. He could leave any other work to be with her only.

"Don't worry about me. Go ahead," Seren a.s.sured.

Leaving Seren in the care of her servants where they attended their master on the deck as they made her sit in the chair under the shade.

Drayce went to captain Benett where Arlan was talking to him.

"...this st.u.r.dy ship sure could stand that storm, Your Highness."

"I am sure it could," Arlan replied, but he knew it must be Drayce who would have done something, without letting others know.

"Your Majesty," Captain Benett bowed to Drayce the moment he saw him.

Arlan turned his head to look at his friend who just arrived there, "So you got time to come to me? Or I thought I would be talking to Captain Benett only the entire journey."

"Don't be heartbroken if it happens. I believe Captain Benett can be a good company for you," Drayce replied as he looked at the Captain, "What's the situation?"

"Everything is going according to the plan, Your Majesty. If the sea is calm, we can make it to Abetha in a week with one stop at Squeed Island," Captain Benett replied.

Taking the information of other things, Drayce and Arlan left Captain Benett to do his work. As they stood up at the bow, Yorian was also present there as if it was his most favorite place on the entire ship to be at.

Yorian greeted the two with a light nod and heard Arlan, "Seems like our ancient elf friend is enjoying the ride by the sea."

"Can't deny it, Prince Arlan," Yorian replied with a friendly smile and commented, "I thought Prince Arlan would stay back to search for the possible threat to his land."

Arlan smirked playfully, "I decided to give some more time to that Black Witch to rejoice the remaining days of her life," he offered him a sweet smile, "See I am not that cruel as you think I am."

"I believe you, Prince Arlan," came the sarcastic remark from Yorian.

Just then they heard Slayer instructing the knights and they looked at him. Sir Imbert Loyset, Arlan's guardian knight was also with him while Azer was with the other knight of Arlan who was also a vice captain of Griven's knights just like Azer.

"Seems like our knights go along really well," Drayce commented.

"Why won't they when their masters are good friends?" Arlan replied, "Especially Slayer who don't make friends other than us two, seems quite friendly with Imbert."

"Hmm!" Drayce agreed as looked at the knight Imbert Loyset, who was of similar height and strong built like Slayer. His dark short hair, that sharp pair of dark irises observing everything around carefully, wearing blue and black uniform of Griven knights and that long sword in its scabbard hung to the right side of his waist was adding the intimidating and aloof Aura to him just like Slayer.

"Having loyal and strong knights is like a blessing," Drayce commented to which Arlan agreed, "True! Imbert and Slayer are similar breeds that's why they go along really well," he then looked at Azer and his other knight, the vice captain Rafal Ahren, "and these two are learning from their captains really well."

Drayce nodded, "Azer is dangerous on the battlefield just like Slayer."

"Same goes for Rafal. Sometimes I find him more dangerous than Imbert," Arlan said as he observed his young knight, tall, strong and though he was talking to Azer, his gaze was focussed around as a habit of every knight.

Meanwhile Seren was sitting in the chair under the shade and her gaze would wander around her husband and his friend. But whenever she and Xena happened to see Slayer, they would avert their gazes away to not meet with his gaze. Both of them were still embarra.s.sed in front of the Guardian Knight of the King and didn't know how to resolve it so they would no longer feel embarra.s.sed.

Seren and Xena shared knowing gazes to each other. As Marie and Eva were not around, Xena finally spoke though she herself felt the same as Seren. "Your Majesty. I think it's fine. Sir Calhoun must understand these things...that why we bought that book."

Seren simply sighed as she pressed her lips in a thin line. She herself could not bear to open that book yet entirely and...

Xena tried to comfort her, "Your Majesty, though Sir Calhoun saw what's in the book, he acted as if it was nothing and even bought that book for you. If it was something wrong, then he would have not allowed us to buy it, right?" As a good Lady-in-waiting it was her duty to comfort the queen and guide her in the right direction.

After a short pause Seren replied, "Hmm, you are right."

"Then, relax and just focus on why you bought that book, Your Majesty."

Seren blinked a few times as she mumbled, "Why did I buy that book...." It was more like a question for Xena.

Xena cleared her throat, "Your Majesty, didn't you want to please His Majesty?"

Seren nodded.

"Then you should read that book and think what you can find useful and comfortable for you and how you can please His Majesty by using it," Xena suggested.

"I can not dare open that book. I worry anytime Dray would appear and I get caught."

"Hmm, that is right. What we can do next time is just like what we did when you were learning Zither. We won't allow His Majesty to visit you when you are reading that book."

Seren gulped, as her puzzled eyes looked at her lady-in-waiting questiningly. "Will that be alright?"

"Of course, Your Majesty. And His Majesty would never go against your wishes, let alone barging in your chamber without your permission."

"That is true," Seren finally agreed and once again looked at her husband who was still talking to Arlan, 'I wonder what they are talking about?'

Her gaze observed Arlan as well who happened to look at her, sensing her gaze in his direction. Seren immediately averted her gaze away as if she was not looking in that direction at all. Whenever she looked at Arlan, she tried to observe him carefully to find out anything odd about him which would prove Drayce's claim about his friend was true.

She was more curious about Arlan now as he felt like a mystery to her.
