Arrival in the north-west tribe

They walked through the streets for a while until they came to the mansion. There was a small, fluffy woman at the gate. She had light brown hair and green eyes. There were two maids next to her. She greeted them with a smile

"It is an honor to welcome you to our trive and house. My name is Yumi and I will be your hostess for the night. "

 She gestured to a maid to come forward and said to Kaida

"if you would follow her, she will take you to your room. You have arrived late in the afternoon so I suggest that you freshen up first and then we will eat "

Kaida did not know what to think of Yumi. She was polite but it seemed more like she behaved like that because she had to, and not because she wanted it. In addition, she only spoke to Kaida and she had not even bothered to greet Rei.

She gestured to the other maid who was standing next to her to come and said

"take her to the rooms of the help in housekeeping."

Yumi did not even look at Rei and did not even bother to speak to her. And turned around and wanted to walk inside.

Kaida began to get annoyed by her behavior. Who does she think she is to treat Rei like that? And what does she mean by the rooms of the help in housekeeping? Do the maids not stay in the mansion? Kaida insisted that Rei got the respect she deserved.

Yumi noticed that Kaida stayed in place. She sighed. How long do I have to act? Yumi stood behind Haya and found the princess of the Northeast tribe also a better candidate for her nephew. If Okata had not told her to treat Kaida with respect she had not even come out.

She turned and smiled

"Would you like to enjoy the surroundings? If so, I suggest putting your things in your room first and then we can take a walk "

Kaida looked at her and looked her in the eyes. How fake can she be? If she first had her doubts about Yumi then they were now gone. It was clear that she did not receive them with pleasure.

"No, that's not it. You only greeted me while Rei is next to me. I wait until She is also greeted "

Yumi eyebrows went up. Who is Rei? Does she mean her maid? Why should I greet someone from low birth? It is rather that she should greet me! And the fact that she wants to scold me instead of her maid is already scandalous! She smiled, but in her eyes you could see the displeasure.

"I don't think I understand you correctly. It is not common for someone from high class to greet someone from low birth. It is customary for someone from a low birth to greet someone of high standing. It will have to be your maid that has to greet me"

With these words Yumi, tried to insulte Kaida.

Kaida looked at her and laughed.

"My maid has a name and that is Rei. And on this journey she is not with me as my personal maid, but as the representative of her tribe. And not just a representative, she is the princess of her tribe. So in terms what u just said, you must show her respect. "

Yumi turned completely now and looked startled. Why would a princess be a personal maid? What kind of nonsense is that? She saw Okata looking angry at her. What is his problem again? She was about to walk to Rei.

Rei, who had long since realized that she had no intentions to greet her. Waved her hands.

"Do not bother. No one wants an unwelcome greeting. And nobody likes hypocrites. However, I insist that my room is adequate even though we only be staying one night. Because I have traveled with my children "

If Yumi thought she was insulting Rei, she was wrong. In the dragons tribe they were not so busy with class. Everyone contributed to the prosperity of the tribe. The king himself worked on the land when it was time to harvest. In addition, everyone in the tribe got the chance to present his or her opinion to the king. If he was wrong then everyone could point it out to him. Whether it was a landlord or a farmer.

Rei walked past Yumi with her head up high. She noticed that the maid, who had to take her to her residence, stayed nervously in her place. In a soft tone she asked

"will you take me to my room I'll be happy to refresh myself"

The maid looked at her with big eyes. she could not take her to the rooms of housekeeping right? What should I do? I will certainly insult her and I can not afford it!

Okata shook his head. Why did Yumi have to behave like that? You do not treat guests like that. She has certainly planned this together with Haya. I really must have a good talk with her.

"Your bedroom is exactly opposite of Kaidia bedroom. I suggest we go inside otherwise we will be still standing here tomorrow"

In de garden of the Palace

"You have called for me mother?"

a man with hair as white as snow walked in the colorful garden.His eyes were as blue as the sky. He had a cold appearance but that did not make him less beautiful. He was tall, muscular and broad-shouldered.

In the garden Haya and Nana sat together to drink tea. Haya gestured that he had to sit down. Nana blushed when he sat down opposite her.

"Good afternoon crown prince Huli, how was your journey?"

She looked shyly at him and when she saw him looking at her she quickly looked down.

Huli knew Nana since they were little children. He did not like her , but he also did not dislike her. What he could not tolerlate was the act she was playing.

When she was alone with him she was not shy at all and she even tried to seduce him. He was also not dumb and knew why his mother had called him.

Huli smiled without emotion

"my journey went well, I always travel well on the back of my fox"

then he turned to Haya.

"Mother is there a reason why you called me to the garden? As you know, the crown princess of the dragon tribe arrives tomorrow and am I busy making preparations"

Haya's face became dark. How dare he talk about that. Everyone in the palace knew how she thought about it.

"Well, I do not want to talk about it. I Really Do not know what your father is thinking. Do you not think it is ridiculous. If you do not want to marry her, you just have to say so."

Huli looked at his mother. Ridiculous? That is softly expressed! I do not know why father made this decision. But I do know that I can not refuse, his will is law.

Plus Huli had the pleasure of fighting alongside the king of the dragon tribe, during the war. He had great respect for him because he was a worthy warrior. In terms of strength, he was in the same category as his father. But Huli had never seen himself married to a weak person!

Nana began to get irritated that Huli did not say anything so she decided to take the lead.

"Huli why don't we go for a walk together through the garden? I like to spend some time with just the two of us. "

Huli stood up and looked at haya and nana

"I wish you a nice day. I'm sorry but I do not have time for this. Keep in mind that walk with me, I will have a raincheck "

without waiting for an answer, he walked away.

Suddenly the earth began to tremble and its started to rain heavy. Huli had to hold on to the wall so that he did not falll. What is this? An earthquake? No, it feels different but what is it?

At that moment a maid arrived and turned to Haya.

"As you have requested, I'm here to inform you that the Crown Princess has arrived in the Northwest fox tribe. It will definitely take another day before she arrives here. "
