Detecting the sudden change in the atmosphere, Crown Prince Lail ran towards Princess Qamari in alarm, shouting as he moved.

"Princess Qamari, move away from there!" He shouted as he stretched out his hand to pull her over, but before he could touch Princess Qamari, now his Crown Princess Consort and wife, she got enveloped in a brilliant white light, her eyes wide with shock and fear, and disappeared right before his very eyes.

"Crown Princess!" Crown Prince Lail screamed, his hand passing through the spot where her body should have been. Thinking he made a mistake in judging her position, he turned and looked all around him, searching for her purple-red clad figure. But she was nowhere. Disappeared and vanished.

Vanished into thin air.

Falling powerlessly to his knees, Crown Prince Lail stared into space, his gaze unfocused, the scene of the Crown Princess Consort wrapped in light replaying in his mind.

"What is going on here? What did I see just now? Did the Princess Qamari of Jinn just vanish?" An envoy from the Erumi realm fearfully asked, looking towards his companion for confirmation.

"Yes, you did. And yes she vanished." His companion woodenly replied.

"The Crown Prince's bride disappeared!" The madam of the Zoda mansion shrieked before passing out.

"What is going on here? Why did the Crown Princess disappear? Could she be a Jinni?" Another madam whispered.

"She disappeared! She must have access to some sort of dark magic!" The Milia Madam stepped in at this opportune moment to cut off Princess Qamari's chances of being welcomed after her return.

"Dark magic? That's a forbidden magic in the seven realms, is it not?"

"It is not only a forbidden magic, but it is also a dark magic! We are talking about dark magic here!"

"Princess Qamari is a practitioner of dark magic?"

"How could that be? Getting a dark magic user as our Crown Prince's Crown Princess Consort, and future Empress of the Amayan Empire, is that not serving the empire to the lord of darkness?"

"No way! We cannot have a dark magic user as the Amayan Empire's future. This marriage must be annulled at once!"

"Annul the marriage!"

"Annul the marriage!"

"Annul it!"

Very soon, the whole courtroom was resonating with the impassioned voices of the ministers and madams as they called for the annulment of Crown Prince Lail and Princess Qamari's marriage.

"Silence! Silence at once!" The Regent Prince roared with a red face and furious eyes.

The crowd immediately settled down, looking at the Regent Prince with doubtful eyes. They could not help wondering if the Regent Prince had gone senile. With the way things were going right now, Princess Qamari being a dark magic user and all, surely he did not plan on honoring the Crown Prince and Princess Qamari's marriage, right?

If so, they might as well leave the empire and settle in some other realm rather than being the servants of the dark lord.

Everyone was thinking of the countermeasures they would take if Princess Qamari and Crown Prince Lail's marriage was not broken.

Crown Prince Lail, who returned to his senses at the moment the crowd started calling out for the annulment of his and Princess Qamari's marriage, looked at everyone and watched everything happening with cold and detached eyes.

His Crown Princess Consort disappeared in a flash of light right in front of everyone's eyes, and yet no one was worried about her safety. This people were labeling her as a dark magic user without the least bit of concern for her well-being. His heart turned colder and colder with every shout that followed until it went completely dead with the scream for his and Princess Qamari's marriage annulment.

He now realized that humans were selfish creatures that only thought about themselves and no one else. Although they shouted 'our Crown Prince Lail' they were in no way concerned about him. They were only looking out for their own interest.

With this, his heart froze, shattered, and reformed from the scattered pieces. This time however, there were no attachments, emotions, or feelings for anyone or anything present in or outside this court. No attachments or feelings to anyone other than his Crown Princess Consort.

Not even to the great Amayan Empire.

Princess Nari stood in shock as she saw her cousin disappear in blinding flash of light. She watched Crown Prince Lail's hand pass through the place she stood, five feet from her. She watched the people in the hall question her disappearance.

And she watched as they branded her as a dark magic user and called for the Crown Prince and Princess Qamari's annulment. She watched in shock and disbelief until the Regent Prince's voice broke through her trance.

With still a hazy mind, she focused on the Regent Prince, waiting for his declaration. Her cousin was gone. Just like that, gone. She could not say whether it was trepidation or excitement she felt as she watched the Regent Prince, however, she was sure that whatever decision he took after this would affect her future greatly.

Regent Prince Kreme Amhei felt the impending wrath unfurling itself in his heart as he watched Princess Qamari vanish into thin air and felt the disappearance of the 'golden bird' from his secret hideout, at the exact same time. Taking out the Mirror of Reflection, he spoke a magical spell to unveil its magical properties, its clear screen turning smoky as it waited for his command.

"Show me the hidden room!" He ordered urgently, his eyes flashing with impatience and disbelief.

The surface of the mirror cleared and projected a dark room in which many chains glowing with electricity hung from the walls, ceilings, and floor coiling together in a binding force onto something in the center of the room.

The only thing was, the center in which they were gathered together was empty, the chains coiling around nothing but empty air.

"No!" The Regent Prince shouted in his mind as he refused to accept the sight before his eyes.

His many years of planning and scheming, they could not go to waste like this. They had to at least amount to something!

The dark thought swirled furiously in his mind, as his eyes taunted him with the empty room. With his rage on the brink of explosion, the mindless shouts of the ministers and their madams crying for the annulment of Crown Prince Lail and Princess Qamari entered his ears. The unceasing, ridiculous demand fueling his wrath.

"Silence! Silence at once!" He roared wrathfully.

The brainless idiots immediate obedience cooled his fury. Looking into each of the high ranking ministers eyes, before sweeping his cool gaze on the rest of the crowd and ambassadors, he declared.

"The 'golden bird' has disappeared. It disappeared the moment Princess Qamari vanished. I believe this sudden mishap has a connection with the princess. Now, for the prosperity and wealth of the Amayan Empire, and the alliance between the Amayan Empire and Jinn Kingdom, Princess Qamari will have to be found as soon as possible. The agreement of this dowry marriage was the 'golden bird' for the two princes of Amayan Empire with the two princesses of Jinn Kingdom. If one Princess is missing, that too, with the 'golden bird', than this alliance will have to be null and void. As for the consequences of breaking the alliance, I believe that I do not need to spell it out for you, King of Jinn." The Regent Prince looked gloomily at the King of Jinn, his eyes practically spewing fire.

"As for the annulment of Crown Prince Lail and Princess Qamari's marriage, that is not possible. After all, anyone with eyes could see the power that enveloped Princess Qamari was not only bright, but pure and clean. Is that a characteristic of dark magic?" The Regent Prince focused his gloomy gaze back onto the crowd, his eyes filled with scorn and disdain, as he fixed them mockingly on his ministers.

"Now, if you have had enough fun spouting nonsense, get going on the search for the missing princess!" His booming voice reverberated in the huge court, his tight fist smashing the handle of his golden throne to pieces.
