In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

128 Nice to meet you sir magic knight

The tension that came from the two of them gave the others to feel the chill that permeated from Henry and Anne. They look at the administrator lady and demand a more acceptable answer, which is about there’s plenty of room for everyone.

“Please tell me that it wasn’t the truth?!” Pleaded Anne to the lady at the administration office.

The administrator lady looks at her and felt sorry for her, “No miss, we don’t have enough room because tomorrow the royal couple will come here to meet with the governor, and we will hold a festival in the honor of Prince Javier and Princess Amelia.”

“Sh*t! I forgot they already married privately.” Muttered Henry from behind.

Horden asked his grandson without turning his back, “I never heard the wedding reception being held already. They usually have a big announcement for all the people throughout the kingdom.”

“They will hold the wedding reception after they go around the kingdom, probably in two or three months,” Henry answered Horden’s question with a yawn. He was exhausted and wanted to take some sleep immediately. “Just take the room. I can sleep on the sofa or on the floor.”

“No! At least all of us could sleep on a bed, I know you’re also tired as I am.” Anne has her own reason to worry about Henry, she needs to observe his injured head, she is after all still a healer.

“The room has two bunk beds, miss, so the three of you could sleep comfortably in a bed.” The administrator gave Anne a warm smile. “It also has a curtain for your privacy.”

The kind administrator was already making sure that Anne felt safe and comfortable, she smile gratefully towards the administrator while Horden was waiting for the key to the room. Henry just couldn’t say anything and grumbled from behind. Ten minutes later, they arrived at the barrack.

.....

Army barracks mostly have the same model in every town. The big difference probably comes from the way they layout the room. With a bigger barrack, the civil servants could live with one roommate only or sometimes have a small room for themselves. But in a small barrack, they will cramp in one room.

This town has a typical small barrack with two bunk beds and a small fireplace to share. Henry immediately took one of the lower bunk bed and go to sleep without even cared to ask Horden or Anne.

Horden put his bag on the floor and pointed at the upper bed of Henry’s bed.

“No, you could use the lower bed. I’ll climb the ladder.” Said Anne, trying to prevent him from going to the upper bunk bed.

Looking at Anne, Horden chuckles and gave her reassurance, “I’m alright, dear. I am not some senile old man.”

“I… I am sorry, I didn’t mean to…” She looks at Horden with a pleading look.

“Don’t worry so much,” said Horden and proceed to climb the ladder and rest in the upper bunk bed. He looks at Anne from above, “Maybe you want to wash before going to bed?”

Smiling at Horden, Anne nodded her head and excused herself. Horden goes to bed after Anne closes the door. Anne goes around to find someone to ask about the public bath. It is nine o’clock in the evening, and people are probably busy in the town hall welcoming the new royal couple.

She remembered Justice’s brother, a handsome but womanizer prince Javier. He finally has met with the love of his life. When she heard the news for the first time, she almost dropped onto the floor, thinking that it was Justice who was going to get married. Her feelings for the four men, although hidden inside her deepest heart, she cared so much about them. But another hurdle will come around them if she pursues the feelings. That’s why she needs to be hostile toward the four of them.

But, she knows, even avoiding them like a plague carrier will never work. Anne knew something, and she promised herself to keep it a secret for the good of everyone in the kingdom. She took a sigh and failed to see a huge body coming from the opposite direction. Anne screamed but thankfully did not fall to the floor. A hand save her, it was the hand of the huge body that collided with her.

“Are you alright, miss?” Said the man.

Anne looked up and saw one of the blue eyes he ever saw in her life, even bluer than Henry’s eyes. Nervously, she asked the man to release the hold, and awkwardly the man finally let her go.

“I’m alright sir…”

“Arthur, miss, my name is Arthur.” Said the man with a grin on his face, “Thank God that you’re okay.”

“Yes, sir Arthur, I am fine.” Anne has a slight giggle when she looks at the man. She knows immediately that Arthur is a kind man.

Arthur gave her a loud laugh, he smile at Anne and said, “No sir, just a commoner here, miss or lady?”

“Miss Anne, but you can also call me Anne. Nice to meet you, Arthur.” Anne extended her hand and Arthur shakes it twice.

“Well, from the looks of it, you’re also a civil servant, a new army member?” Arthur was frowning while rubbing his chin.

Chuckling at his behavior, Anne then revealed her job. “Well, not quite. I am a healer, going back to work at the capital.”

Arthur’s blue eyes got wide with excitement. “Really?! Oh, I am going to be posted in the capital two months from now. Please let us meet again?”

A bit hesitated, Anne awkwardly smile at him, “Uhm… Sure, I’ll be waiting, for now. Could you give me a direction for the public bath?”

“Oh, of course, let me escort you, beautiful miss.”

Arthur and Anne have a nice small talk while he takes her to the public, and when they reach the front of the public bath, Arthur asked her one more question, “So, you’re going to work at the main hospital, right?”

“Yes… and thank you so much for this, appreciate that you took your time to accompany me.” Said Anne wholeheartedly to Arthur.

“Until we meet again, miss Anne,” Arthur said formally, with a slight bow, making two visitors to the public bath squeal.

When Arthur left, Anne went inside the public bath and met with the two visitors in the changing room. They still giggled at Anne, and when Anne excused herself to use another box to put on her clothes, one of the ladies gives her a nudge.

“How lucky you’re to befriend Arthur, the handsome captain of the magic knight.” Said the lady.

Anne looked at the two of them. “I am sorry, who?”

The two ladies looked at each other when the lady who spoke earlier explained to Anne, “Oh… You don’t know about Arthur? The magic knight who vanquished the hoard huge monster by himself? That’s why he raised to a captain rank in just three years.”

Suddenly, Anne remembers the heroic and epic story of a magic knight one year ago. Now, she knew the story based on Arthur, a man with warm blue eyes and a charming smile. She takes a dip inside the public bath, and afterward, she goes straight into her room. The snoring from the upper bunk bed showed that Horden was already in his own dreamland.

When Anne prepare her bed, Henry called her from the other side of the bed.

“Anne, where were you?” He asked her while his cold blue eyes stared at her while he lies on his bed.

Anne quipped and jumped. She never expected to see him still wide awake. “Henry, I thought you were sleeping already? Just got back from a bath, need to freshen up a bit.” Said Anne with an awkward smile on her face.

“Right… You don’t happen to have met with a man with a muscle for days and have a very good conversation.” Henry says it with a very good dosage of sarcasm in it.

With a gaping mouth, she looks at the already turn Henry and tried to make her voice as quiet as possible while still putting a punch to Henry directly, “Did you spying me?! Oh my God, Henry! Get a life!”

With an angry grunt, Anne goes inside her bunk bed and closes the curtain. At midnight, when Anne already fell into a deep sleep, someone open her curtain carefully. The blue eyes of Henry, staring right into Anne’s face, there’s a bit of hair lingering on her face. Henry brushes it away with his finger. “What should I do with you? You’ve betrayed us by lying, but you already took a piece of my heart with you,” He whispered to the sleeping Anne. Henry stared at her for a while until he went back to his bed and finally get some sleep.

Horden heard everything from the upper bunk bed, there was a determination on his mind, he must know their secret, the one that kept them apart, and he swore from his family name, River Anne will become the most important person in Valorian kingdom, with Henry and the other three gentlemen by her side.
