Chapter 108: The Story About Her

Even though Prince Yuri had come out of the dungeon. He was kept in a secluded room with his feet tied in silver chains. Ivanka didn't allow her pity to affect her logic. Although she was sad to see her brother being treated as a criminal — she couldn't take the risk.

Today, an old woman was ushered into Yuri's new room to be sacrificed. Ivanka checked the rest of his food and confirmed that this time Yuri drank blood in a more civilized manner. Even though the old woman lost her life, her body was still intact. There was no blood left, but no neck or broken bones. That was a good sign, meaning that Yuri was almost cured.

Valerie heard from Ivanka that her father King Dimitri made a bet with his daughter. If she could heal Yuri with her own abilities, then king Dimitri would acquit him of all charges. Meaning, the king would ignore the fact that Yuri had once joined the rebels and was willing to accept him as crown prince.

It was new information, but not very useful for Florentia. There were several reasons why King Dimitri made that bet. First, he might actually still love his son and didn't want him to go to jail. But as king he had to be firm so he couldn't overtly punish him. Ivanka said she got the Avalon medical journal with her connections. But maybe the king Dimitri had helped her secretly.

The secret journal couldn't be so easily obtained by Ivanka who had no direct connection with the Avalon military.

Second, king Dimitri was probably testing Ivanka's abilities. He probably didn't want to make Yuri the crown prince anymore. Legally, he was a traitor to the country and the Avalons were definitely against his appointment as crown prince. Ivanka, could be a candidate for the next leader of Avalon. But king Dimitri had to put her skills to the test.

From the information she gathered, Ivanka was the perfect princess. She had never touched a weapon and lived as an ordinary noble's princess. She had never been involved with politics before. She also never opposed Florentia or humans openly. She lived life as an Avalon vampire in general.

Logically, even though king Dimitri only had one biological successor left, he could have considered handing over the throne to another vampire. Ivanka may have something that no one outside of her family knows about.

Because as told by Alexander Gregovich, king Dimitri was a very powerful vampire. He might as well have the DNA of a demon like Raphael. The next heir to the throne should also have the same charisma and power as him.

Yuri and Ivanka were both young. They could still train themselves because the vampire race could reach over two hundred years of age. Valerie used to be the same, she never thought of going into the military and living life like a high class noble girl who likes to party. It was not impossible, a weak princess like Ivanka would someday wield a sword and fight on the front line.

"Lady Celia, is there anything I can help you with?" The palace butler greeted her, as Valerie was about to head to another part of the palace she had never been to. She was the personal guest of Princess Ivanka. The palace in Jalad-hur was actually not the main palace with a myriad of important royal secrets.

But still, Avalon's palace in Jalad-hur has been inhabited by dozens of generations of the most powerful pure-blood vampires in the vampire world. Valerie hopes to find new information. Of course, she was sure that even now there were servants or palace guard knights who were actually spies from Florentia. But, they could never get close to the inner circle of the royal family. They could only walk around and eavesdrop on the interesting happenings in Jalad-hur.

Valerie was certainly there to do different things. However, Ivanka had not seen her again after Prince Yuri's transfer to a special room in the Palace. Maybe, Ivanka thought that she no longer needed Celia that much. Now that Yuri had calmed down, Ivanka could give him Devil Grass regularly to control his Demon DNA.

That's quite worrying, because Valerie hasn't gotten enough information yet. Especially about prince Yuri. She should be more familiar with the princes and princesses.

"I have something I need to tell, but I can't see her," Valerie said politely with a slightly nervous gesture.

"We can deliver your word," the Butler said kindly. But the look in his eyes showed that she didn't completely trust Celia.

"It's quite a secret, I'm not comfortable telling it to a gentleman like you," Valerie put on an embarrassed face and occasionally looked away.

No matter how Butler responded to him, he didn't look embarrassed or shy. Instead, he smiled at her instead.

"Oh well, I'll pass it on to Her Highness Ivanka later. I understand you two are both young girls. Her Majesty Ivanka might need someone to talk to. She's been a little different since coming back from Ithadurna," said the Butler.

"Ah yes, she told me. The state has been struggling since it lost the war. The trip must not have been very pleasant," said Valerie. She acts as if she understands but she really didn't know what Ivanka was doing in Ithadurna? When did it happen. .

However, it was important to her that Butler knew that she and Ivanka were close.

"Hmm, I guess maybe it's not because the country isn't in a good condition. Princess Ivanka met someone there who made her sad. I was a little worried, but I'm her maid not her friend. If you, Lady Celia, might be able to talk to you," the Butler now let his guard down.

"You don't have to worry, this palace has hundreds of bodyguards standing guard and hiding all over the corner. You'll be safe here..it's just that you shouldn't venture far because the palace is very big and you can get lost," he said again.

In other words, Celia Durant wouldn't be able to get away with it if she wanted to hurt Ivanka. The butler stated his threat in a subtle way.

"Lady Celia, my Butler said you were looking for me?" Princess Ivanka immediately confirmed it, as soon as Valerie entered her private room. It was not where she slept, but rather a luxurious spacious pavilion. Valerie was hosted in her guest room, which features imported furnishings and gold-carved windows. The feel of the room contrasted slightly with the princess's current appearance. She was wearing a relaxed nightgown. Valerie was a little uncomfortable, because they weren't actually close enough to show their bare faces and loose hair.

"It's okay, have a seat, you're a special guest here..In fact, I call you my friend. You should see the faces of my servants. They were both happy and worried because suddenly I became friends with my piano teacher," said Ivanka a little jokingly.

"Yeah, maybe because they know we haven't known each other for a week, Your Majesty," said Valerie with an awkward smile.

"You can call me Ivanka, and I'll call you Celia," said Ivanka.

"Eh? There's no way I—"

"I owe you, Celia. Before meeting you, I thought Yuri wouldn't heal forever. So if you just call me Ivanka, I'll allow it," she said again.

"All right, Ivanka," Valerie said, smiling at her.

"You know, I want to know more about you. Like, if another accompanist played the symphony, would the effect be similar for Yuri?"

"I think whoever plays it will have the same effect. It's like a sedative..It is said that pregnant women who regularly listen to classical music will give birth to smarter children, and have a happy pregnancy," said Valerie.

"Oh really? Have you ever been pregnant before?"

"Eh? No. I've only heard of it. It's no secret."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I was just curious. Because you seem to be behaving older than you are," Ivanka laughed.

"Of course it's not that I'm making fun of you, gosh, what did I say? Sorry if I made you uncomfortable," Ivanka shook her head.

"It's okay Ivanka, I've always wanted to have friends the same age. Where I come from there are only old women. Even when I worked for Lady Miriam I only hung out with women her age," said Valerie.

"Good grief! I'm sorry, Ivanka, I've gone too far by calling you a friend," Valerie lowered her head.

"Oh, it's fine, like I said. You saved Yuri, so I don't mind calling you a friend," Ivanka laughed.

"So, may I know, where did you buy Devil Grass?"

"Buy? I didn't buy it. The plant is not sold anywhere. It grows wild, and do you believe that when I was looking for it I was even swallowed by a giant snake?" said Ivanka.

"Gosh, that's terrible, how can that be?"

"I looked for it in Ithadurna, in the Rubera mountains to be more precise. I went there alone because king Dimitri insisted on not telling me anything about how to save Yuri. He was probably surprised that I came home alive," Ivanka continued.

"You must be strong enough for the King to let you go alone. I mean, just look at this palace..guards are everywhere," Valerie probed slightly.

"Oh, can you guess? Even though everyone thinks I'm weak and always needs to be protected.. But not with my father, he knows that I'm strong enough to take care of myself," Ivanka said again while resting her chin and smiling at her.
