Prologue

A man was pulling the reign on his horse through the main gate of the royal temple. The man was a messenger on a mission to relay an important message to the emperor who lived two days away from this place. His action was secretly observed by two young women clad in servant uniform who was standing on the rooftop. One of them had a huge smile on her face while the other was almost expressionless.

Regardless, both of them were extraordinarily beautiful, no one will believe that they were servants. Truthfully, it was almost right as both of them were not mere servants.

Both of them had been serving the oracle of the north for almost hundred years already, hence making them no ordinary maids!

The smiley maid turned toward the expressionless maid. " He was already on the move. Should we tell the oracle about it?"

The expressionless maid playfully slapped her friend's head. "The oracle must have already know about it. Who do you think she is?"

" A playful old woman?"

���I heard that" The tremble voice of an old woman startled both maids. They hurriedly greet the blind, old woman who was holding a wooden cane. The old woman was carefully balancing her old body to walk on the treacherous roof.

" I have been living this life for the longest time. It's time for me to let go of this persona" The old woman made a general remark. It was not directed to any of her maids, but rather to her own self.

"But before that, I have one last mission"

"What is it? " The smiley maid happily inquired.

"Follow me. We need to hurry up before the messenger arrived at the palace"
