The Heiress Of The Legendary Family [S1]
Knight Exam: Travel

"Casilda, Charles, are you really going?" gneer asked worriedly. It was clearly on his face.

Casilda and Charles nodded at the same time. "And I told you a long time ago, Brother" snorted the sapphire-spirited girl.

"You don't have to worry, Brother, I'll take good care of you" said Charles with a cynical face when he saw Gneer. However, his expression changed again as he turned towards Casilda. "Yes, right, brother?"

"Yes!" Casilda nodded. "Sister Gneer need not worry, because Charles will take care of me. He's a genius kid!" he said while patting his sister's back.

Charles immediately put on a look of disdain. 'You heard, right? Brother likes me better than you. Wh why? Because I'm j.e.n.i.u.s! Remember that well!'

Gneer instantaneous sweatdrop. Why do these two bloodless brothers have the opposite nature, anyway?

'And why does Charles always hate me?! I'm not wrong!!' screeched Gneer in astonishment in his heart.

Honestly, Gneer was a little afraid of Charles' change of character. 'Is it better that I change my face to Casilda's, yes, let Charles not be angry at me?' he thought absurdly.

"Bent, Harkin, you must take good care of this forest! Don't let you trouble Gneer, okay?"

"Ready! Understand, Miss!" bent and Harkin replied in unison.

"okay!" Casilda clapped her hand. The items they had to carry had already been converted by the girl into atomic particles.

The two bloodless brothers walked out of the forest. Behind them were Bent, Harkin, Gneer, and all the Jade Assassin members waving their hands.

"See you later, Miss!! Young Master!!"

"Be careful on the road!!"

"Neither conditions, yes!"

"We'll miss you!"

"We will always take good care of this forest! Miss, don't worry!"

"Yes!!" reply Casilda is not less enthusiastic. "We go first, yeah!! Hope we meet again!!"

A breeze hit the short strands of Casilda's hair. Clear sea water and clear skies accompany their journey.

The view from this ship is so beautiful and will always make the passengers feel at home to see the beauty of the ocean and the sky.

"The weather is good, yes." murmured Casilda. "But are you okay, Charles?" tanyanya while glancing at the younger brother who was behind her.

"I... It's okay, Brother."

"really?" Casilda was suspicious of the eyebrows she raised next door. "You're pale, you know."

"I'm fine, Brother" Charles replied with a firm stance, though his face was very pale.

Yeah, correct. Charles was getting seasick.

"You don't want to rest?" ask Casilda.

"No, Brother. My job here is to look after Brother, not to rest."

"But you're in a bad state, you know."

"I'm fine, Brother" to the pale green-blossomed young man.

"Alah, don't boong, deh. Want Brother to give you support to use [Heal]?" haggar Casilda.

"No, thank you."

"Gpp, atuh. Accept, huh?"

"No need, Brother."

"Thank you."

"That's not per—"

"Accept or you'll lock up on the hull."

"....." Charles was silent, he did not answer. The young man preferred to turn his gaze the other way, which was important to avoid Casilda's gaze.

The sapphire-spirited girl snorted a little. 'Why is Charles so stubborn, anyway? Nature of who, try?' hers in the heart.

"Yes, you can be here. But, if you're not strong anymore, say to Brother, yes?" While sighing, Casilda smiled faintly as she said so.

Charles nodded quickly. "Okay, Brother!!"

"Don't nod, you'll get dizzy" the girl said.

Not listening, Charles nodded.

".....Yeah, I did. It's up to you." In the end, Casilda chose to give up. Rather than arguing with the sister who would definitely never end, the girl looked back at the stretch of blue carpet that lay before her.

'Very broad... Is this Mother's territory? Aren't you tired of this big territory?' casilda thought to herself in the heart.

'Ah, again I forgot. Sapphire has been massacred for a long time, meaning you still have no chance to take care of this area.' The girl sighed. 'Emerald sangke.'

Without feeling it, night came. The ship boarded by the two brothers and several other passengers was still sailing in the vast ocean.

Casilda, who was in the same room as Charles, still opened her eyes. He can't sleep. He looked at the little brother who was still asleep in his beautiful dream.

"Ehehe... Older brother... Don't praise me, dong... Hehe... I'll be embarrassed.... Nyem..."

Casilda was immediately speechless with her flat face. 'Since when did my sister become a gini?!' thought.

A second later, the girl smiled. He woke up from his sleep and headed towards the bed of his sister. Casilda's hand rubbed the strands of her sister's hair slowly.

"When you were whining because you couldn't sleep. Now you can even sleep, while your brother is not. It feels really good, really, until you want to pinch your heart" said Casilda with a gentle smile.

"But, it doesn't matter. The important thing is that you can sleep peacefully, I don't mind." The girl kissed her sister gently. "May your dreams be beautiful always, Charles."

Afterwards, Casilda walked towards the door of her room slowly so as not to make the slightest sound. Before coming out of the room, Casilda took her time to look at the peaceful face of her sister.

Smiling little, he came out of his room with a small hum. Really, it was only the first time he felt a thumping feeling like this that he could not sleep.

Whereas usually, Casilda always sleeps wherever whenever and under any circumstances, but this time not. Perhaps because this was the first time he had passed through the territory of his own clan.

'The scent that came out of the sea seemed to take me out of this ship. What will they tell me once I breathe fresh air on the deck of the ship, huh?' his mind while walking.

It did not take long, Casilda had arrived on the deck of a wooden ship that was quite spacious. There was no one there, only him, the vastness of the ocean, and the starry sky that accompanied his night.

'There are stars at night. What's up with this, the Onyx Clan will get the light? You see, the Onyx Clan is identical night, and stars are identical to night pairs.'

He saw it that night. What a sweet and opiate syahdu. But then, he thought of another absurd thing. 'Eh jerk off, that night pair was a moon or a star, anyway?'

Wuuusssshhh~~

The breeze seemed to reply to the question in his heart. However, it is useless, because Casilda never learned the language of the wind.

Casilda stood there quietly. His eyes were straight, I don't know what. His gaze was blank from daydreaming, but it was still obvious that he remained vigilant.

"Knight's Test, huh? Where's it?" he muttered to himself. "I guess I can get through it, right?" added again.

"You can do it, Miss" said an old man behind Casilda.

The girl had been aware of her existence from the beginning, so she asked the question. "You who?" ask Casilda while glancing behind her.

"Hoho, I am the captain of this ship, Miss. Just call me Old Nahkoda" the old man replied as he lifted his captain's hat.

"Nahkoda? If you're here, who's driving the ship?" ask Casilda again. This time, it was completely facing backwards.

"Nobody's driving it, miss."

"You.... Not scared?"

"Ohoho, afraid why? There's nothing I fear in this world, while I'm above the sea, Miss" chuckled Old Nahkoda. "That's because I believe in the ruler of the ocean."

Casilda flinched a little. 'Ocean ruler?!'

"Yes, right. The ruler of the ocean" Nahkoda Tua said as if hearing Casilda's inner voice. "I believe in the Sapphire Clan who have been guarding this ocean for hundreds of years."

"believe it? Why do you believe? Isn't Sapphire's whereabouts still unknown? Why do you believe it?" ask the girl in succession.

"Let's go, 'cause I believe it." The old Nahkoda walked up and stood beside Casilda with the hands she had placed behind her body. His eyes that were not as sharp as before stared at the reflection of starlight reflected in the ocean.

Casilda fell silent, she was still processing the words of this old man. Who her? Why did he ask her to speak? Do they know each other? Does he have a relationship with Sapphire? Or maybe he has a relationship with Emerald, Amethyst, or even Diamond?

"Hohoho, I know you must be wondering, who am I, right?" Old Nahkoda chuckled small amid the engulfing silence.

Either because it was too honest or what, Casilda gave a small nod.

"I'm just a little boy who's old now, miss. The little boy who was once saved by an angel from under the sea" explained Old Nahkoda.

Casilda scrunched her eyebrows. A kid? Rescued? Angels from under the sea? Huh! What don't-don't....

"Miss, do you know, you look a lot like the angel who saved me" said Old Nahkoda as he stared fixedly at Casilda. "Your eyes and hair remind me of him. Moreover, your aura is also exactly like her."

Casilda was still silent, she was waiting for this nahkoda's words.

"Miss, are you a descendant of that angel?" ask Old Nahkoda.

".....I don't know... I don't know either." reply Casilda as she is.

Old Nahkoda smiled small. The memory of the past is twisted again because of the reply that Casilda threw earlier.

"Son, why are you here?" ask a very beautiful woman with sapphire hair and the same eye color as her hair. "Where are your parents?"

The boy was silent and did not answer. Her lips were open, but there was no sound. He was too impressed by the beauty of the woman. "Sister.... Is my sister an angel?"

The woman fell silent, then smiled. "Yes, that's right. I'm an angel from the bottom of the sea" he chuckled softly.

"Woaahhhh!!!" Innocently, the boy shrieked in admiration. "It turns out my guess is true!! Angels really do exist!! Whoaahh!!"

"So, son, what are you doing here?" ask the woman again.

"Sister, I have a question." Looks like this kid didn't hear the question from the woman. "Can I be a great captain and meet Brother at sea someday?"

"Of course you can!" The woman smiled as she stroked the child's head.

"Why did you say it was like that?"

"Eh?" The woman was confused. Why did the boy ask?

"Dad and Mom said that I wouldn't be able to be a nahkoda. Why did you say I could do it?" ask the boy again.

".....Hmm....." The woman stared at the full moon which was right above the ocean. "...I don't know.. Brother doesn't know either..."

Then, the woman looked back at the little boy. "Silver's just sure, that's all, hehe."

The unexpected encounter brings a change to the fate of the boy who has now become a senior master. He will never forget what happened a few decades ago.

'Miss, I think you're descended from that undersea angel. I'm sure of it. Believe.'

TBC.
