Chapter 227: 227: An invitation to Camelot

March 24th, Afternoon;

*Trrrring*

Several students were rushing out from the examination halls, feeling excited as it is the last day of the final examinations and the start of the three-week holidays.

The spring holidays were actually supposed to last five weeks but due to the Champions League, the Exams were pushed back two weeks and reduced the number of holidays.

However, no one is caring about that. Everyone was just happy that they will no longer have to study for the following weeks.

Azzy was walking with his friends. Claire was clinging to him like a wet towel to nail.

"C'mon, Mia, at least you come. It will be awkward if it's just Rael and me." Claire was asking others to reconsider their decision of rejecting her invitation to the Triastal Kingdom.

At first, Azzy also tried to reject it by telling her that he wanted to spend time with his family whereas, in reality, he had to go somewhere else. But then, as Claire said that she will convince his foster parents to also come with him, Azzy didn't find any reason and reluctantly accepted her invitation.

He also didn't know that Claire ran a little bit of scheme behind his back with the others so that she could spend time with him alone. The other three rejected her invitation as per her request. 

But, little did she expect there's going to be a hurricane waiting at Azzy's home.

As soon as both of them entered the house, their eyes fell on the six bodyguards in suits standing behind a sofa where two people sat on it while having tea together.

One is the exiled/runaway princess of Snieca and the other is the crown princess of Camelot, Leah Pendragon.

"Oh! Hey, Azzy" "Hey, Azrael"

Both of them reacted at the same time the moment they saw him. Claire's face frowned for a moment but she managed to control it. 

"Hello sweetie, you are also here." Affea's face glowed even more when she saw her son's girlfriend.

Ever since Azzy started to be in a relationship, he developed a habit of sealing his soul power to show real expressions, although when they were alone. It was as if it is a secret for both of them.

Claire enjoyed the feeling that Azzy shared something with her that he didn't share with Gideon.

Soon, after developing the habit, Azzy tried to be the same with his family. She was an Exalt realm expert. After seeing it a couple of times, she quickly recognized it without Azzy even telling her anything.

She thought Claire might be the reason Azzy was opening up more. Adding on top of that, Claire was the youngest princess of Triastal. With her status also befitting for her son, Affea's impression only improved within the past couple of weeks.

However, even she didn't expect that another princess would be interested in Azzy or else, why would she come all the way to invite her too. Then, something clicked in her mind.

"According to this girl, Azzy and she made an agreement but that was before Azzy and Claire became a couple. Would that mean Azzy had a crush on this Camelot's princess and later, got together with Claire? Or am I thinking too much? Ugh… Whatever the case, let Azzy take care of the matter."

As she already took a liking to Claire, Affea neither rejected nor accepted her invitation and only said that they will wait for her son to arrive and then, will talk.

And now that she saw Claire accompanying him, Affea also thought Azzy would definitely reject Leah and maybe, the latter will also give up on him. How would she know that her son will give even more of a shock to her and his girlfriend?

"Princess Leah, you should have given me a heads up before coming here." Instead of returning her greetings, Azzy directly told her.

The royal knights frowned as they didn't like his tone. It sounded very disrespectful to their princess but they didn't move a step aside as the person in question herself didn't take it as an offense. Instead, she only smiled and replied, "You didn't tell me that you only have three weeks of holidays you know. So, I had to rush to pick you up."

"Are they flirting?" Affea's darted eyes right and left in confusion. At the same time, Claire's facial expression darkened further.

Previously, she was only a friend but now, he's her boyfriend. So, his business is hers. She quickly stepped forward and stood before him with her arms crossed to the chest, "what business do you have with 'my' Rael, Princess Leah?"

She emphasized the word 'my' to give a clear message to her. As expected, Leah was a little bit taken aback but she kept her smile and answered, "I and Azrael, both of us made an arrangement this summer where he will undergo special training at our Camelot. Now that I'm here to pick him up, I thought of inviting Auntie and Uncle to our kingdom too."

Claire's face displayed shocked as she turned around to look at Azzy, "Didn't you agree to go with me to Triastal?"

"I'm sorry." Azzy slowly whispered while looking down. "I promised her."

Almost instantly, tears welled up in Claire's eyes. "Then, what about the promise you made to me?"

"I did but…" Azzy tried to think of an excuse but nothing else came to his mind.

Before he thought of it, she interrupted him by pointing a finger at Leah, "then, tell her that you are going to accompany me. You can also train there."

Azzy didn't know what happened to her but Claire was shouting at him. It was the first time he ever saw this side of her. He didn't know her insecurities at all. So, he thought she was taking it too seriously. But, he couldn't say it to her after seeing the tears that are almost about to flow down.

In the end, he could only apologize, feeling guilty of lying, "I'm sorry." 

Claire quickly stepped aside and run away from him.

"Honey, what's going on?" It was at that moment Oakley appeared, climbing down the stairs. Until now, he was peacefully sleeping on a massage chair upstairs but rushed down, thinking there's a fight going on downstairs.

When he came down, he saw there was this extremely beautiful girl with guards behind her. He caught an expression of smug on Leah's face for a second before it became normal. On the other hand, he recognized Claire was running away with Azzy looking at the floor.

"Eh? Don't tell me he's two-timing…" He wondered.

Then, Azzy took a deep breath and looked at both of them. "Princess Leah, Aunt Affea, I'll be right back."

Azzy also rushed outside while activating his aura sensing. He quickly detected Claire's aura that was nearby but moving very fast. He chased after her.

"I'm his girlfriend but he chose that b*t*h over me." Claire was feeling heartbroken at the moment as if her world suddenly turned upside down.

It was then, suddenly, two arms caught her waist tightly and forced her to halt the movements. "Claire, listen to me…"

In the middle of a street, a boy was hugging a girl from behind without caring about the passersby.

"Leave me. Now, I understand that you don't love me, at all." Tears started to fall from her eyes. "I was a fool to think that you gradually developed feelings on me after spending time together but…" 

"Claire…" Azzy raised his voice, making her flinch for a second. Before she continues with her irrational accusations, he spoke, "The reason I'm going to Camelot is because of the creature that escaped to the human world. If you calm down for a moment, I'll explain everything."

"Eh?" Claire was surprised. As Azzy freed her, she turned around and looked into his eyes. "What does the creature have a connection with Camelot and why do you have to go with her?"

Azzy first revealed that his and Leah's Arcana sprits aren't platinum grade but a grade higher, the Celestial grade. Then, he briefly told her that the beast now mutated into another Celestial grade beast and is taking the form of Vann Hildegard. 

As he explained to her about the tracking seal, Claire asked him while sniffing, "Why do you need to involve in it. She has royal knights and so many Generals too."

"Vann is the crown prince of Hildegard. If wrongly handled, it will become an international incident, and Leah alone cannot defeat him. Moreover, I will receive 50% of his core in return."

"Huh! 50%?" She looked confused.
