Chapter 8-Alicia Silverheart (1)

After killing the Goblin General and sorting out his stats, he dismissed his status window and approached the injured girl and started talking to her.

"Excuse me, are you alright", asked Theodore as he gazed upon the injured girl.

"Who are you?", asked the injured girl before she finally passed out.

"Hey hold on!", screamed Theodore with a worried expression on his face.

He quickly approached the injured girl and pulled out the potion, he had made using the Cure-All Herb, from his Item Box and fed it to the unconscious girl.

Within an expansive, square room, several individuals were gathered. Among them, the most prominent were seated around a table, in the midst of having their dinner.

The opulent furnishings and surroundings bore evidence of their wealth, and indeed, were they rich. It was the royal family of the Silverheart Kingdom.

A few maids hovered attentively, offering flawless service to their masters. Guards were stationed nearby, though they kept their distance.

For a short interval, the only sounds were the clinking of utensils, resonating throughout the royal dining hall.

Just then a world-toppling beauty came into the dining hall and made her way to the dining table to take a seat.

Her long golden hair cascaded down her back, complementing her sapphire eyes. Adorned in a blue dress that perfectly accentuated her model-like figure. She was a sight to behold with her D cup breasts.

Perhaps she was a model,or perhaps she was attending a lavish party. Her dress hinted at an event that demanded elegance and grace.

This was the first princess of the Silverheart Kingdom. Her name is Alicia Silverheart.She is 16 years of age and stands at a height of 1,73 m. She would be attending the academy in four weeks when it reopens. She has a Lightning affinity with an A ranked talent.

After pleading with her father, the King, many times she had finally gotten his permission to become a mercenary under a disguise.

The only condition was that she would not reveal her real identity to anyone under any circumstances.

Her father, the King, was the only one who knew about her secret - even her mother was kept in the dark.

She was sure if her mother was made aware of her being a mercenary, she would be locked up in her room within no time.

That is how her mother was - as long as she could recall, her mother had always tried to shape her into a proper lady befitting of the royal family.

When it came to Alicia though, she hated it with a passion. She was not made for being a child bearing machine for some douche from one of the noble families.

She was always fascinated by the tales of adventures and fantasies she had heard from her caretakers.

Above all, she loved fighting. She strongly believed that she would meet her fated one while fighting, just like how she had heard in stories.

From the time she was young, she would secretly sneak off to train with the soldiers. She never slacked off from training.

She had just come from one of her training routine, before going back to the palace to take a bath before joining her family in having dinner.

She took her seat and began having her dinner when a loud voice boomed throughout the hall.

"You may withdraw."

The sole male at the table commanded. Possessing scarlet red hair and sapphire blue eyes, he was undeniably handsome.

Looking at his face, one would never deduce him to be a father. Resting on top of his head was a radiant golden crown adorned with intricate decorations, and along with his royal tunic,they both proclaimed his status without question. He was the King of the Silverheart Kingdom.

His name was Adrian Silverheart. He was in his mid thirties and stood at a height of 1,88 m. He has a dual affinity of lightning and fire with both being A ranked and S ranked talent respectively.

The maids and guards respectfully bowed and left the hall, leaving only the individuals clustered around the table.

The table was surrounded by six chairs. Presently, two of these seats were vacant, while the other two were occupied by the royal couple.The last was taken by a young man with scarlet red hair.

This was the first prince of the Silverheart Kingdom - Albert Silverheart. He was 18 years of age and he stood at a height of 1,83 m. He has sapphire blue eyes, just like his father, infact he looked like a miniature version of his father, the King.

He has a water affinity with a S rank talent. He was going to be crowned as the crown prince at the end of the academic year. He was in his final year at the academy.

The Queen, Patricia Horton, looked at her husband and asked,"What going on? Why did you tell everyone to leave?"

Patricia Horton is from the Horton Dukedom. She met the King at a ball when they were much younger.

They became very close to each other during the times they spent together.

The King had fallen head over heels in love with Patricia. One day during their date, the King proposed to her.

Patricia had said yes and they got married to each other. They had two children together, the first prince Albert Silverheart as well as the first princess Alicia Silverheart.

She has golden hair that cascaded down her back with complementing sapphire eyes. She looks just like a mature version of her daughter.

She has F cup breasts and a very busty figure. She is 1, 74 m tall and has a wood affinity with a A ranked talent.

The King looked at his wife and son and asked them to give him some privacy to talk with his daughter, Alicia Silverheart.

"I am sorry darling, but can you please give me some privacy, I need to talk to our daughter", said the King.

Then to his son, prince Albert,he said,"Go to the training room, you have been slacking off from training, I will be there shortly."

After saying this,both the prince and queen left the dining hall and left the King and Alicia alone in the dining hall.

The King looked at his daughter Alicia and asked her,"How is your training going?"

"It is going pretty well father, I have managed to increase my mastery of the lightning magic", replied Alicia taking a bite of her dinner.

"Mm I see, I heard that you and your cousin got into a heated argument when you went to visit yesterday", said the King as his gaze lingered on his daughter's face.

Just then, Alicia stopped eating and looked at her father. Indeed she had argued with her cousin.

It was about her engagement with a particularly round boy. He was well known for going around harassing women every chance he got - that is Theodore Nightshade.

"Yes father, we did have an argument", said Alicia as she looked at her father.

"Father, can you not cancel my engagement with that fat blob", asked Alicia.

"No, that is out of the question. I have already promised Duke Atticus that you would marry his son",said the King leaving no room for negotiations.

"You of all people should not be insulting him. If you his fiancee are insulting him, what are others to do?", asked the King.

"But father he is a molester,he goes around sexually abusing women!", screamed Alicia.

"I will not have you raising your voice at me young lady!", said the King as he raised his own voice.

Alicia had just realized that she had messed up in her enraged state and quickly apologized.

"I am sorry father, I did not mean to I got carried away", said Alicia as she stood up and bowed respectfully to him.

After seeing that his daughter, Alicia, has calmed down and regained her senses, he dismissed her before telling her news that would surely make her angry.

"Mm you can go now, but before you leave, you will be visiting the Nightshade Dukedom tomorrow and spend some time with him and get to know him", said the King one final time before dismissing her.

After speaking with her father, the King, Alicia went back to her room. She was not happy with her engagement at all.

But she could not do anything about it her father had already promised Duke Atticus that she would marry his son. And her father was a man of his word.

To make matters worse,her father and Duke Atticus were best friends from the time since they were young.
