With a positive energy on both each other’s face…
END PROLOUGE
20 years as now…
In an empty hallway inside the Kingdom’s Palace. There was a young woman in a white uniform, has white silver hair, and red ruby eyes, her name is Alice, A homunculus. Born to serve and fight for her ruler. Despite of being homunculus known to only Three or Four years’ life-span. But She is born different, Alice is born differently by combining other homunculus’s life-span to implant into her. She is now the age of 101.
She striding through the smooth, dirtless, and marbled hallways.
While carrying a stack of papers. Papers from village folks and citizens in the kingdom for the king. She is greeted by a crowded messenger outside the king’s room.
One of the messenger notice Alice, and approaches her with a weary eyes and expression. And said. “You’re the king’s supervisor or right hand knight. Right?”
Alice replies with slight nod. “That’s correct. I am Alice Corroneil Einzberd… And what brings you and others to king’s office? Hopefully this isn’t about the king’s selfless action again?”
The messenger shakes his head as a no gesture. And replied with a nervous voice. “Uh… no, Mrs. Alice… The king has a lot of unclaimed letters. That have been remain in the King’s box in the Station for over 2-month. The King’s companion usually the ones who come to receive it.”
Alice raised an eye brow that he mentioned that someone has been getting the king’s letter other than herself. She replied with a strict manner. “uh-huh… And who’s this companion your talking about? Give me name and quickly.”
The messenger casually replies with a slight nervous tune in his words. “Well, uh… The person who has been claiming the king’s letter is a second-rank knight. I don’t know his name is. But I know he’s a young dwarf in his 90s. Has red hair, and eyebrows. And Blue eyes. He has a height of a 15-year-old.”
When the messenger describing the person. Alice nods gathering the information about this person. A person came to the scene, and while carrying a rifle on his back. His name is Leonardo Hakrol. An eighth-year soldier, and now a knight dwarf. And one of the king’s companions. Before he was the king. “Top to the morning, Alice.”

Both Alice and the Messenger switch their gaze down on the dwarf. Fits every description from the messenger has said.
Alice side eyes at the messenger, and she said. “Is he the one?”
The messenger nervously nods. As sweat drips down to his face and to the neck. And replied. “I afraid so, Mistress.”
Leonardo blink twice in confusion. Then tilt his head. And said. “What are you guys looking at me for? Alice?” He steps back as he saw Alice’s expression turns strict. “He-hey… what are you looking at me for? Alice…” Leonardo runs off. Casting a speed buff to his leg.
“Don’t think you could escape from this, Dwarf!” Alice puts aside the letters to the messenger’s hands. Alice then calmly pull out her hair pin from her hair. As she cast a spell coating the pin with paralyze spell. Then cast an incarnation to her left eye with Hawkeye’s vision. She slowly aims the pin at her target with a precise precision. She calmly inhales deeply. And instantly exhale, as she thrown the pin towards Leonardo’s back of his knee.
Leonardo looks back. A redline flashes before his eyes, as the pin lands to his back knee, and immobilize him. He trips to the ground like a ragdoll, then stops by a wall with his back. He murmured. “Damn…it. This not how remember how strong this homunculus used to be… but this one is too much.” He looks up, gazing at furious Alice towering before him. And he said with punctuate tone, distress with slight crack voice. “Wait! Hold on. Just let me explain for a second.” As he tries to stand up but unable to because of paralyze spell that was cast on the pin by Alice. Feeling his muscles and bones went to sleep. Leonardo is then grab from the uniform collar by Alice. And gets drag away by Alice “Oh bread cram… PLEASE, I’M SORRY! I KNOW SHOULD HAVE TOLD ABOUT THE KING’S ABSCENTS TO YOU. I PROMISE, I WON’T DO IT AGAIN, PLEASE! I’LL TELL WHERE THE KING AT.”
While Alice dragging the paralyzed Leonardo. She scoffs, and then replied with strict tone. “Silent. Dwarf. I’m not that easy to be convince by that offer. And besides, I already had located the King by his scent from you.” She drags him into the castle’s stable filled with serpent long neck dragons, called Wyverns. They are used for fast transportation for many regions. But these specific wyverns are for aerial battle.
Page 2
When they both arrived the stable. Paralyze effects wore off and Leonardo able to move again. Alice then push Leonardo with a bucket of water, and brush:
Alice: “Your punishment as today for lying, and cooperating the king’s request without letting your superior known. Now your punishment as to now you are going to polish every wyvern’s scales spotless. And when you’re done. You can presumably polish other wyverns from different stable.”
Leonardo: “BUT!”
Alice: “No buts! Do as you are told, Lieutenant Leonardo Hakrol!” She turn around and walk out the stable leaving Leonardo inside. She then shuts the door behind her.”
Leonardo: He sigh deeply as he was frustrated about this. “Damn it… I knew, I should have informed her if I had a chance… Damn you, Gaiden” Leonardo’s wyvern walks towards his rider with a smug face, and reach his at him with a cocky smile. Leonardo’s eyebrows twitch from annoyance. “Oh you really think you can get special treatment from me? Heck no!”
After that turn of an events of an easily deceive Leonardo. Meanwhile, Alice arrives in an ongoing under develop region. Is where she located the king at. She strolls around the area searching the king.
She feeling a scent of judgement from people around her. Hearing people’s judgement miles away:
Woman: “Is she homunculus?”
Man with a top hat: “No doubt about it.”
Other man: “Not to mention she is wearing a white knight uniform, and especially that rapier.”
Woman in a dress: “Look at that gorgeous hair she has. Too bad that could’ve be mine.”
A little girl: “Mom, why does she have a very white skin.”
The mother: “look away my dear.”
Alice feels uncomfortable from people gazes. Her ears blush from embarrassment. Wanting to blend herself from the crowds.
PAGE 3
She strolls through builds with thoughts of embarrassment: (“Of all places. Can’t he just act a normal adult for once. But other than dragging me out here in public’s eyes. People outside will freak out that a homunculus like me.”) She stops at front of the clothing store. Staring herself in the glass window, and thought to herself. (“Maybe my appearance is too eye catching. Especially for women, I heard rumors a woman with smooth skin also an eye-catchy for men. And if so… that would mean…no, absolutely not. Gaiden may be at his 20s and he’s a king, and still act clueless. And even worst, he might also not appreciate women’s appearance as whole.”) She lost track of the topic she was thinking and instead of frustrated on the king’s recklessness, she instead thinking about her being as a whole. In long spacing out. Her ears turn bright red. She thoughts came in panic thoughts. (“Augh!... what on rose pedals was I even thinking?! How can high knight like me think such things?! How inappropriate to think such thing? *sigh* I better find him, before things that inside my thought giving me anxious.”)
Alice stare inside the store and she said. “First things, first. I have to get away from people’s gaze.”
Meanwhile, King Gaiden. He carries a whole timber of wood to the under constructing Barn with other farmers. Gaiden’s white long-sleeve button polo was dirty, covered by mud and dirt. But he is unbothered, but enjoying the work and process:
Gaiden: “Just few more elbow-grease and this Barn will be done. Is that right?”
Old bearded Farmer: “Yup. And I must say you’re quite strong lad, even you only have one arm carrying a whole wood… I’m jealous, seeing a young man like you. *sigh*it makes me miss my life being young.”
Vinder, and man in his 40’s, and a son of the farmer. and one of the higher up knight in the castle. And a captain in the lower knights.
Vinder: “Pretty sure you aren’t that productive since you were young like him, father. All you did back then was drinking and picking up girls-“
Old bearded Farmer: Impostures!... Young man, don’t listen to this wannabe man in tough suit.
Vinder: “Now that just impulsive of you, father.”

Old bearded Farmer: “At least in the truth way. Hahah!”
Vinder: “That’s not how it wor- augh… nevermind
Vinder pinch his bridge part of his nose from embarrassment of his father’s comments.
Vinder: “Forgive my father’s rudeness, my king.”
Gaiden: “That’s okay. I know how it feels having an old being charismatic in front of their son’s guests… and you should call me just my name, since you’re older than me.”
Vinder: “Even so… I still insist calling you king, Gaiden. It’s something what people should do as a sign of respect. It doesn’t matter either you’re young or that person is older then you. It’s still tradition.”
Gaiden scratch his head by guilt. Being called king makes him uncomfortable.
Gaiden: “But still…is just doesn’t fits my strong suit.”
Vinder: “Hmm… What about I call you my Liege.”
Gaiden: “No.”
Vinder: “My majesty.”
Gaiden: “No.”
Vinder: “My lord.”
Gaiden: “That’s worst.”
Vinder: “Great all father-“
Gaiden: “Now that’s even worst then the last. I’ll just discuss with the other leaders when the next meeting comes.”
Vinder nod as an agreement.
Vinder: “Very well then, my king. I shall wait when for the results will come… But there is something that I have to ask… What makes you want to help out all of a sudden?”
Gaiden’s shoulders tens up, and slowly turn his gaze.
Page 5
Gaiden: “Well… in all honesty I want to do something different, Okay. I mean there’s nothing wrong about. Right? Ahahaha……”
Gaiden stare at Vinder for signs of trust. Vinder sighs deeply at Gaiden sarcastic excuse. While Vinder’s father pass asleep in the middle of thier conversation.
Vinder: “You really don’t need to lie to me. I promise; I won’t tell the other high ranks.”
Gaiden: “I know… Anyway, we should be finishing this barn by now. Before Alice find out about I was gone.”
Vinder: “Agree to that. I can’t stand hearing her voice when she lecturing you even from afar or in the training grounds.”
Gaiden puts the timber down aside.
Vinder: “Huh. We ran out of nails.”
Gaiden dust off his hands, and then approach vinder.
Gaiden: “Oh really? I swore there was a whole bag.”
Vinder: “Well then. I might as well go get some in the market.”
Gaiden: “Maybe I should go gets some? After all, you haven’t gotten a break yet.
This is an old project from Senior-high
