Chapter Two: Majorica and the Secret

While the snow began its descent upon Ishtarica, the faraway land of Heim prepared for its own bout of snowfall. It was an average day when Krone’s mother, Elena, was walking through Heim’s beloved royal castle. As “the continent’s champion,” Heim was bolstered by a colossal fortress that none of their neighbors could ever hope to have. The castle’s interior was furnished with luxurious jeweled decor and lavish paintings—a sign of the kingdom’s prosperity.

Just as she turned the corner, she bumped into a certain boy.

“Ah, Lady Elena,” Glint Roundheart said. “You seem to be in quite the rush.”

The boy was proclaimed to be the next lord of House Roundheart, and served as third prince Tiggle’s guard. Glint frequented the castle for his duties. Though a hint of boyish mischief lit up his eyes, the young Roundheart had been developing a dignified resemblance to his father in recent years. Along with his handsome face, his role as the third prince’s guard made it almost impossible for the young man to not become the talk of aristocratic society. However, everyone knew that his heart belonged to his fiancée, Shannon.

“I’m about to meet with Prince Tiggle,” Elena said.

“What a coincidence,” Glint replied. “I was just headed there myself. May I accompany you?”

“Of course.”

Just as the two started walking alongside each other, Elena’s thoughts drifted to Glint’s relation to his older brother, the crown prince of Ishtarica. Ever since he was a little boy, Glint had high expectations and superb Holy Knight skill thrust upon his shoulders. In other words, the two brothers were polar opposites—Ein, with no expectations placed upon him, and Glint, with only anticipation surrounding him. Elena had once tried to convince Krone to give Glint a chance, but the girl would have none of it. She firmly refused and didn’t budge, but after that fateful party, her heart had been stolen by Ein.

Neither Krone nor Elena were aware of Heim’s secret contract with Ishtarica at the time. When Elena took all of that into account, she realized that her daughter had truly fallen for Ein.

“Is anything the matter, Lady Elena?” Glint asked.

“Ah, I’ve just been thinking a little about Ishtarica,” the lady confessed.

“It’s a troublesome nation. They lack etiquette and are heavily reliant on the power of their enlarged nation.”

Elena was tempted to point out that Rogas and the rest of House Roundheart had treated Olivia unfairly, but she managed to remain silent.

“That man truly became the crown prince,” Glint grumbled quietly. “I cannot understand what they’re thinking.”

Elena decided to pose a question. “This is quite difficult for me to say, but may I ask you something?”

“Certainly. What’s bothering you?”

“I heard that the man you lost to in Euro was the guard of Ishtarica’s crown prince. The Knights Guards that were present had claimed that the crown prince was even stronger than that guard. What do you make of this, Sir Glint?”

“H-Ha ha... You ask some tough questions, my lady.” This was a bitter memory for Glint, but he couldn’t refute the facts.
