6 Woman in Gold Dress.

"Just answer my question." said the father irritated.

"Okay. I'll answer if that's what you want. I just went to the forest. Are you satisfied?" Peter answered at last.

"Impossible!"

"What? You don't believe it?" said Peter angrily.

"Just answer my question honestly, can't you?" asked the father in a cold tone.

Peter laughed coldly, this old man really sucks. What was the honest answer he meant by that? Really sickening.

"I've been honest." Peter answered coldly.

The father frowned, his face looked genuinely irritated and objected to what Peter had said. It was clear that he really didn't believe Peter's answer.

"Ah..."

The two people who had stopped their conversation were startled by the voice of Peter's brother which they had been ignoring.

"What's wrong with you?" said the father did not like it.

"Father... aura! He gives off his aura. Can't you feel it?" replied the brother hastily.

The father frowned, he didn't feel anything.

"Stop talking nonsense Julius." said the father disapprovingly.

"I do not..."

Before Julius could continue, the sharp look in his father's eyes made him stop speaking.

"Peter. You're banned from leaving your room for a month." said the father looking back at Peter.

"What?! This doesn't make sense!!" cried Peter displeased.

"This is your punishment." said the father coldly.

"Huh?! What did I do wrong?! Why do you want to punish me old man?!" shouted Peter angrily.

"I'm your father!!" cried the father.

He was very displeased with Peter's call to him. Old man? Hah! Seriously!

Peter was silent, no longer answering or making a sound, he seemed mute. The boy turned back and lay down to sleep as a sign of protest against the unfair punishment from his father.

The father who saw Peter's actions became displeased, his eyes grew colder.

"Reflect on what you did here for a month." said the father coldly.

Then the two of them left Peter's room and the father locked the door from the outside.

Click.

Peter heard the sound, the sound of his bedroom door being locked from outside.

"Damn old man!" muttered Peter without intending to turn around to see if the door to his room was really locked or not because the answer was certain, he was locked up again.

The next day.

Argents castle was very busy because it had to prepare for the arrival of the royal family to their territory.

"Ana? Ana? Where is Ana?" asked the mother looking for her little girl whom she couldn't find anywhere.

"Miss Ana said she wanted to go play in the garden, madam." replied the maid.

"Playing in the garden?? How can that kid still think of playing when the whole castle is busy." said the mother complaining about the actions of her only daughter.

"Call her for me." said the mother again giving orders to the maid.

"Yes ma'am."

The maidservant saluted Ana's mother and then immediately headed to the castle gardens to find Ana.

###

Castle garden.

Ana is still busy looking for something that shined that day which caused her to appear suddenly in the forest.

"I remember it was a shining road, where? where's that??" mumbled Ana frustrated.

"I remember very well, that shining road is around here. I have to confirm again, is it true that the road leads directly to the forest? It's too unreasonable. Today I have to confirm it, yesterday I was too scared to think about this weirdness." Ana muttered again still looking for a mysterious shining path that led her to the forest.

Ana continues to search endlessly but the mysterious path is very difficult to find.

"What about the secret passage I took when I got home?" Ana asked herself again.

After that the little girl walked in the opposite direction and entered the bushes in the castle garden and finally came to a small hole that Ana used to go home.

"It's still here. Where is the mysterious shining path? Is it possible that it appears and then disappears by itself? That's too weird isn't it?" said Ana swallowing her saliva.

She started imagining unpleasant things in her little brain, how could such a strange thing happen? Her memory couldn't be wrong, but she couldn't find the shining path, as if the shining path had suddenly disappeared??

"It was true that day it had also suddenly appeared and shone, so there shouldn't be anything strange about it also suddenly disappearing, right?" mumbled Ana thinking hard.

"No! How is that possible, this is simply too strange!" said Ana refuting what she just said.

"Miss Ana...Miss Ana..."

Ana heard the voice of a maid calling her name from a distance. She immediately stopped her search for a mysterious passage that led her to the forest and straightened out her slightly dirty dress.

Ana just patted her dress and removed the dry leaves in her hair. Then she approached the maidservant who was looking for her.

"What is it?" asked Ana in a dignified tone.

The maid respects Ana, even though she is still small but this little girl in front of her is also the master of the castle where she works and is also the favorite daughter of the noble family she serves, of course the maidservant will respect Ana.

"Madam is looking for you."

"Mother?"

Ana thought for a moment, then nodded her head as a sign that she understood.

"Tell her I'll come see her later." said Ana giving orders to the maid.

"Okay miss."

After that the maid immediately left Ana in the castle garden, after that Ana also didn't stay too long in the garden, she immediately went to her room to change clothes.

It's not a good idea to immediately see mom with her current condition, she will definitely get scolded if mom sees the appearance she has right now.

What Ana didn't know, after she left the garden, the condition of the garden suddenly turned a little strange, golden light shone in a certain corner of the Orde castle garden but no one noticed it at all.

A path suddenly formed again, the mysterious path that Ana was looking for completely disappeared and also appeared by itself.

A woman in gold dress with a transparent white scarf appeared out of nowhere.

"You'd better not use this road anymore." said the figure speaking in a gentle tone.

After that she looked at the mysterious passage that reappeared, she waved her hand again conjuring the secret passage to disappear again.

Then the mysterious woman's figure disappeared and the mysterious passage also disappeared as if there had never been a mysterious passage there.

Who is the woman who suddenly appeared? What is the meaning of her words?
