In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

199 The young miss and The king

“Ah, the beautiful purple hair healer, the one who makes my son and his three friends smitten for more than two years. Finally, I met you.”

King Edward keep looking at Anne, while she tried so hard to smile at the king. Never in her wildest dream, she will sit in front of the knight king, the true father of prince Javier. He was looking at her and even chuckles a bit.

“Fear not, young miss, I am not judging anything here, I came from a family of a custom noble, met with Leon and Ascend on the civil service exam, being best friends and now partners ever since.” King Edward, although have a broad shoulder and tall frame, he also looks at Anne with gentle eyes, which reminds her of Horden, Henry’s grandfather.

“It is an honor, your ma… I mean His majesty, I never met with other royalty besides prince Jason and crown prince Justice.” Said Anne with a nervous tone.

“Wait, you never met my son? I for sure thought he met you before.” King Edward asked her with curiosity.

“He probably saw her from afar. Now, let us go back to what exactly we are doing here, father?” Justice was annoyed by how fixated king Edward was on Anne. He knew that when it was time for him to announce his choice of the new empress, every set of eyes in the palace will turn to the woman. This is one of the factors why he always postpones his official announcement.

The official announcement of the crown prince differs from the prince. The prince, like Javier, could marry below the rank and marry right away. A month before the wedding, there was an announcement. As for the crown prince, the announcement will lead to the future empress, where the woman will have to stay inside the palace and become the empress in training.

Justice doesn’t want an isolated life for Anne. He knew how she loves being a healer, and also how they never put a name for the bond that they had.

“Hey, we met someone on the road. They told us that prince Javier was hiding in the northern area along with his wife.” Xavier was leaning on the fireplace again, but this time closer to the place where Anne was sitting.

.....

“In the northern area? That was close proximity to the group who wanted to kidnap him in the first place. What exactly that idiot son of mine was thinking?” King Edward close his eyes and huffed his breath.

“Father, Javier must be had a good reason for it.” Trying to help his older brother, Justice tried to calm king Edward.

“No, Justice, this is typically your brother… Ugh, why can he just like you or Jason?” He groaned and Anne immediately gave him a cup of drink, he took it and gratefully thanked Anne, “Appreciate it young miss, oh, is this meylatee tea?”

“Yes, his majesty, you need to drink it so you can feel calmer.” Said Anne with a smile on her face.

King Edward reciprocated her smile and patted her hand. “Oh, what an angel you’re. If only my son could have such a lovely young miss like you.”

“Father… Careful, he is married to her now.” Justice warned his father immediately.

A bittered smile came into king Edward’s face, “Yes, and sadly so… Anyhow, what should we do now?”

“Better to let the familiars gather information for us.” Said Xavier, “I’ll send Ageha for now.”

“Wait, why don’t you send all of your familiars?” Asked Anne to Xavier.

A chuckle came to the huntsman captain. “Well, for once, I’m tired, and my magica is depleting. Asking the three of them will be the death of me.”

“Wait, the familiar drain our magica?” This is the new revelation for Anne. “I thought they only need our magica when they are using power.”

“Surely Anne, you should know this by now, young miss.” Said king Edward with amusement on his face, “There’s a reason that my darling wife rarely rides Rhaemonda anymore. The dragon needs to consume a large amount of magica.”

Vale went quiet. He approached her and put his hand on the elderwood bangle that he gave back to Anne. “Weird, you lost just a bit of magica from the bangle, so how come Chikara could go around outside?”

She shook her head, also confused like the rest of them, “I… I don’t know, I mean, for two years, Chikara just… growing…”

“And he never consumed any magica from her because Anne doesn’t have any magica.” Muttered Vale.

King Edward jolted from his seat, his relaxed face disappeared completely. “What do you mean, she doesn’t have any magica? That was impossible.”

The four of them looked at each other. They tried to protect her all the time, but there will be a time this kind of information will be going to everyone’s ears and eyes.

“It seems it was possible because Anne doesn’t have any magica. They already check on the second exam. I guess you never read the report.” Justice said to his father, while Anne’s face went pale.

King Edward was staring at Anne with tension on his face. “Yes, I guess I never actually read the report thoroughly. That was Ascend’s job, after all.” He stand up from his chair, and excused himself from the room, “I’ll be going to my room to take a rest. It would be best if we discuss this tomorrow at lunch.” He closed the door, leaving all of them speechless for a moment.

“Wow, what happened here?” Asked Xavier while he brushed the stubble on his chin, “Your father seems a bit distraught when he heard about Anne’s lack of magica.”

Justice, turn his head to the door. He was as baffled as the others. “I don’t know, but I hate this. He was keeping something from me.”

“He probably just tired.” Anne gave them a smile and then a yawn came. “Oh, I guess I was also tired. Can someone show me my room?”

Leo stands up from his seat. “Yeah, I’ll take you there. I’m going to bed as well.”

They walk outside the hall together, when Leo turns to her, “So, no magica at all, huh?”

“Yeah, is that going to be a problem for you?” Anne asked him a bit carefully.

He snorted, “Are you joking? You got a silver pass and also helped the kingdom from the certain doom of a false disease, without any magica.” A grin appears on his face. “Probably I am becoming more impressed than before.”

What a relief for Anne, she hate it when someone gave him a cold shoulder for something that she doesn’t have the power to change. Leo escort her to her room, and after they say goodbye, Anne was waiting for his friend to go inside his own room. Before Anne closes her door, a hand suddenly stops her.

“Wait, young miss, I need to talk to you.”

She looks up, and there is king Edward staring back at her.
