Chapter 383 - Clean The Mess

It didn't take long for them to reach the place where they'll be resting. It wasn't such a fancy place but the view was amazing. It was situated on top of a hilly area which has a great view of the open sea. When they reached the place it, the sun has risen giving a clear majestic view of the blue sea. Despite the coldness in the area and the partly gloomy sky, one would still be amazed by such a picturesque view.

"Amazed?" The woman asked noticing the bright smile on Elizabeth's face.

"Hmm…" Elizabeth responded shortly as she turned around and followed the woman inside the house. Whilst she was reminiscing on the beautiful sea, it reminded her of her home back in England. Their home or more like a palace was situated by the lake and every morning she would have the sight of it.

When they entered the home, it was far from what one would expect. It looks old and shabby outside but inside… It was grand and well decorated. There were ornaments from different countries, painting, and even artifact which you won't see around. Seeing the different pieces of art made Elizabeth curious about what the woman does for a living for her to own such priceless artifacts.

It was not hard for her to recognize some of them for they would own such pieces as well. Her grandmother enjoys collecting such artifacts and she is aware of the price to own one. To think, such pieces could be found in such a boring old town.

"Surprise?" The woman smiled seeing how interested Elizabeth look and serious seeing everything.

"Kind of…" She replied.

"Don't worry, they aren't mine. I only live here and work here…" The woman explained as she continued to guide Elizabeth to the kitchen.

"Big Sis, your home."

"Where the heck did you go?"

Before they could even enter the kitchen, they were welcomed by two young men who looked almost the same age as Elizabeth. They were as few feet taller than her and looked slim yet well fitted.

"Who she?" The young man wearing a blue s.h.i.+rt and jacket frowned to see the woman has brought a stranger into their home.

"She a friend." She responded.

"I don't think she your friend…" He spoke with so much bitterness in his tone.

"Well, she is and you better be nice to her." She said looking so seriously at the young man.

"Jo, let's go…" The other young mas said as he pulled his friend out of the room before things got ugly.

Jo continued to express his hatred towards Elizabeth as he left the room. As if he can sense something bad will happen to those who are close to her.

"Ignore him, Jo is really childish for his age." The woman added.

"And the other one?" Elizabeth asked.

"Ah, Stef, you don't need to worry about him. But, I do advise you not to be in the same room as him. He can be a bit of a detective…"

"I see."

Elizabeth became even more suspicious of the woman's ident.i.ty. She lived in such a shabby house yet it holds such a priceless collection. Two young men who looked as if they can kill anyone with their bear hand calls her "Big Sis" is normally what people in the underground society call each other.

"Come, let's have something to eat…"

Elizabeth followed without question, but deep within her subconscious, she was aware that the woman can't be trusted.

Meanwhile, near the port area, the old man who helped Elizabeth finally reached the place where he needed to make his report.

Inside an old man was waiting who was dressed in a black j.a.panese traditional Happi. The old man was being survived tea by a beautiful j.a.panese woman who was dressed in her kimono.

"Master, I've come to report that I've secured the Young Princess and is in town at this moment."

"Very well, did you give her the things I asked you."

"Forgive me, Master, she won't accept it. She did accept a few changes but nothing more."

"That's fine, as long as she won't starve herself to death."

"Master, has Lord Knightley have any more order for me?"

"No, you can go. Thank you for your service."

"It's an honor to serve the Knightley family."

As the old man was about to head to the exit, the door open from the other side and came running a man who was as pale as a sheet as if he received the most horrible news every.

"What's the meaning of this?"

"Master, bad news…"

"What?"

"The Young Princess, they took the Young Princess!"

"What? Who took the Young Princess?"

"We just discovered that there is an unknown mercenary group hiding in this island. The Young Princess was approached by this strange woman. As we followed them, they entered at this old house so we saw no harm in the woman. But suddenly, two men came out of the house. After we check on the two men reports, they were known as Jo and Stef, they belong to the Ghost Group and if I'm not wrong, didn't Professor Petrovich mentioned they were one of the groups the Young Princess has a grudge on."

"Call everyone, prepare for a rescue mission!"

"Master, we can't do that. Lord Knightley has ordered us to not get involved with the Young Princess as long as her life is not in danger. I'm sure they don't know who she is."

"Are you out of your mind, they'll know who she is for everyone know Li Zi is dead. Which means, she is the person who'll they think she is." The old man added who was unable to step out of the room.

"Then Master what should we do for now?"

"Call for backup, in case we are to go to war with them, its best we are prepared to make sure that the Young Princess's life won't be placed in danger."

"At once."

The man came running out of the room living the old man feeling hesitant to leave. "Master, is there anything I can do? I mean, the Young Princess knows me already. Maybe, maybe I can help her leave the place and send her off."

"Hmm…"

"Master, she does not suspect me to be working for Lord Knightley. Rest a.s.sured, once I see her, I'll send her off…"

"So be it…"

The old man greeted the master as he left the room. He hastily runs as fast as he could in order to not be too later in case something bad has happened to the Young Princess.

The j.a.panese woman serving the master went closer once again to serve him tea. "Master, will you really not get involved. The Young Princess's life might be put in danger. If you wish, me and my girls can rescue her now."

"Don't worry, she'll be fine… She is far too smart too put herself in danger. I am sure she is already aware of the woman's ident.i.ty and thinking of her way out."

"Master, once the Young Princess is free… Should we?"

"It's always best to clean the mess wasting around. Once, she is safe, you know what to do."  

The j.a.panese woman smile please with her task as she greeted the master and escorted herself out of the room to prepare the necessary things needed for her mission.Â
