Chapter 11

"then who will take care of Mathew until we come back..?" Keil mumbled..

Lucas effortlessly rolled a huge rock and placed it in front of the cave..

"geez.. What the hell is this..? Let's go.." he said staring at the dirt in his hand from moving the rock

Three of them walked to the stream in silence and washed their stains... Kiel and lucas went to fill water from more cleaner place in stream  .

When both of them come back.. Athy was sitting on the rock dipping her legs in the running water staring at the moon.. She looked ethereal like a fairy was spotted on earth... Her skin glowed under the moonlight and both of them can't take their eyes off her..

"sia.. Let's go.." lucas said as he put  all the water they collected  in his portal bag  .. She stood up and put on her shoes holding  his hand.. Keil stared at them with a blank face

They went back and Keil moved the rock away and washed his hands... Athy gave Mathew water who is holded straight  by lucas

" cough... Cough..thank you.. For  saving me" he said in a low voice as Keil came inside

" it's ok.. Rest for a while.. Felix went to Inform the palace" athy said with a gentle smile... He smiled back as he slowly Sat up leaning  on the huge rock behind him.. Lucas and Keil went out to search for something to eat..

Athy was sitting there silently staring at the fire

"princess..thank  you so much... You are my life saviour" she said and athy stares at him confused

" I was not completely knocked out.. So I felt your mana when you healed me.. I don't know why you are hiding such an amazing thing... But I am so grateful that you saved me... I would never forget this help... I am ready to do anything for you in return.. It's a promise "he said and smiled gently..

She is silent for a while then smiled at him..

" thanks for keeping my secret.. And it's not a big deal.. I did that because I can "she said and he giggled

" you are too humble princess.. "he said and she  smiled

" can I ask you something...? "he asked and she looked up at him

" we are back... Haah."Keil said as he leaned on the wall..

" athy here.. Eat this.. " he said handing her some fruits..

" thanks sir  ijekeil "she said receiving them

" seriously stop using honorifics "he mumbled pouting. She looked out and lucas isn't there..

" sir ijekiel where is sir lucas..? "Mathew asked as kiel handed him some fruits

" he said he have something important to do and walked  inside  the forest.. He will come back in a while.. "he said staring at athy with a blank face

Mathew noticed the emotions in kiel s eyes .

She slowly  eat her fruits and walked out..

" athy.. Come inside.. "Keil said trying to stand up but sit back when she did.. Soon lucas also entered and sit beside athy..

" did you eat sir lucas..? " Mathew asked before athy and he nodded a yes with a  smile to him

" where did you go..? "she asked
