I am positive I will wield swords again once my family gave me a green light. Given the choice, I know I will just pick up swords. Altaire kept boasting on how I was so skilled at fighting with the ice sword, and even encouraged me to start practicing my swordsmanship again.
However, I was preoccupied with learning the basic of dark magic and other forms of magic. Plus, Dad's too overprotective on how I might hurt myself if I were to handle swords at such a young age. So I think it's fine to wait until my enrollment to school. It should be easy for me to pick back my swordsmanship skill!
This way, I will also have more time to try thinking ways to alter my past swordsmanship skill... hmm, how can I explain it if there are still similarities to Grabberton style?
Ah well, let's think about it later.
Anyway, my fifth birthday comes after Luca's.
And, surprise! Luca came to visit my house!! He came along with a few escorts, though. There is no way he would be allowed to leave the castle without bringing along any escort.
"Sorry for intruding, happy birthday, Lyra!" He hands out a nicely wrapped present to me.
"Thanks, Luca! Can I open it?"
"Uh oh, you'd better save all the presents and open them all at once later on. Also, thanks for coming, Luca!" Mom said.
Waaa—right, I am curious to know what kind of presents I'm getting today!
"Thanks for coming, Luca!" Dad greeted Luca warmly—but deep in his eyes, there's a part of him that's saying, 'I'm watching you!'
"Hmm, is that Lyra's friend?" Clavis-nii asked.
!!
What... Clavis-nii?!
Well, he has never met Luca before, but to think that he doesn't even know that Luca is the prince...?!
"Oh, you don't know him? He's---"
Right when I was about to introduce him, Luca suddenly stepped in front of me and is now facing Clavis.
"Yes, I am. Just call me Luca. What's your name?" He reached out his hand to Clavis.
"It's my first time hearing that Lyra has a friend like you. I'm Clavis, my mother is working in this house! Nice to meet you!"
The two boys are shaking their hands and are smiling.
Hmmm, oh... perhaps Luca thinks that it's a good thing to be friends with someone who doesn't even realize that he is the prince!
"Oh my, you've got another friend, Clavis! I'm happy for you! Luca-sama, please be friends with him," Niina said with a wide smile.
...........Yes, I'm positive. Niina also has no clue on who Luca really is. She might think that Luca is just some noble friend of mine, no real biggie.
"Uhmmm," Chloe seems to notice the whole situation and is reluctant on telling Niina and Clavis or not. I turn to her and make a gesture that will tell her not to mind it.
