Chapter 249: When The Old And The New Meet

–AN: It's late but here you go!–

After signing the blood contract, Jen was now allowed to move in with me. She had been staying at the library in a room that was hidden from others' view. We packed her things which surprisingly were no more than a few pairs of clothes and a pile of books. I had to apologize to Sir David once more since he had been waiting for me this entire time.

But now it was time for the truly difficult task I had to deal with. I just know Adel will freak out when she sees how close me and Jen are. While I know I shouldn't let it affect me personally, I still understand that she has some feelings for me that are more than just being friends. I also did not wish to hurt her feelings either, so I hope she will get used to Jen being around.

When we arrived at my home, Jen stared at the huge gates in disbelief. "This is where you live!? Are you some kind of noble?"

"Ah? Now that I think about it, I am. I was granted the title of baroness." I replied. I had forgotten that I had been given a title.

"Now that you think about it!? Did you really forget!?" Jen gave me a strange look. I just shrugged. Not like I cared for the title to anything.

The carriage pulled up to the house, and as I got off, I turned and held out my hand. Jen chuckled as she said: "You are like a knight helping his princess."

"Then, Princess, if you will…." I said teasingly. Jen smiled and took my hand. In my past life, Jen and I held hands a lot, so I did not think much of it as I walked through the door hand and hand with her to see Adel standing there frozen solid with a cookie in her hand raised to her lips. She stared at me, then at my hands, and then at Jen.

"Who…. Who is this!?" Adel yelled out. She tossed the cookie in her hand down and marched right over to us, grabbed my hand, and pulled me to the side. "You! You are the library girl, right!? What are you doing ho-ho-ho-holding hands with my Faith for!? No, wait, what are you even doing here!?"

"Adel, stop!" I yelled, flicking her forehead, causing her to turn and look at me while pouting and holding her forehead.

"But…." She whined. But I just tapped her head. "Adel, Jen is my friend, so do not treat her badly.  I can not explain it to you just yet because I was told not to by two certain people, but just know that Jen is actually my childhood friend. She is as dear to me as you are. Okay?"

"I…." Adel looked at me as if she wanted to cry and then at Jen and lowered her head. I felt bad because I could see her emotions running wild. I reached up and patted her head, causing her to relax slightly. "Fine… but no hand holding!"

"That might still happen," I replied. "It's a habit from before."

"But… Ah! Fine!" Adel cried out, then hugged my arm and lifted her chin as she looked at Jen. "Just so you know, Faith is mine!"

"I belong to no one!" I said while flicking her forehead once more, causing her to push her face into my shoulder. I let out a long sigh. "As you can see, Adel is kind of attached to me."

"I can see that." Jen looked as if she did not know what to make of the situation. I can't blame her since I do not know what to make of it either. "Anyway. My name is Jen. I hope we can get along, Your Highness."

Adel finally raised her head to look at Jen and let go of my arm. "Just Adel is fine. In this house, the one with the highest status is Faith. Not I think the one with the highest status in the kingdom is Faith."

"Pardon?" Jen asked, seemingly confused.

"Adel, your father, is the king," I reminded, causing Adel to shake her head.

"Faith, in this kingdom or any kingdom, those with the strongest power have the highest authority. It is already proven that with Diablo alone, you are the strongest person in this kingdom." Adel explained, which I did understand but still.

"No matter how strong I am, it is your father who is king and always will be as long as I can help it." I did not wish to be a leader. I would only exert my power position if it came to those I cared about, like how I did with Jen.

"I know! I am just saying but still. Jen is your friend, so formalities would just be stupid since I will always be around. Anyway, let me make one thing clear. Faith is my mi…. Ouch! Faith!" I once again flicked her forehead.

"You keep saying I am yours to everyone who talks to me in the slightest. Do you even know what that means?" I asked.

Adel looked at me in confusion as she thought about it but still did not seem to understand as she raised her head and answered: "We are best friends?" She even tilted her head to the side as she looked at me with a puzzled look.

I could only sigh. I guess she still has a long way to go. "As she said, just call her Adel. She may act like this, but Adel is a very good person. She cares deeply for all her friends. You can say I am a special case as I was her first true friend."

Jen nodded to my explanation as she reached her hand out this time to Adel and said: "Then let's be friends as well from now on."

"Ah? Yes…. Same to you." Adel reached out and shook Jen's hand and shook it and then watched as Jen walked over and hugged my other arm and smiled at her as she said:  "But just so you know, I am also Faith's best friend as well and have known her much longer!"

"You!"
