In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

235 The Round Table Tribe (Part 3)

Anne’s face says it all. She was terrified and nervous. “What? Like… Like right now?!”

“No! No, don’t worry, after we deal with the round table tribe, of course.” He chuckles at her naivety and gave her a peck on her cheek. “But, my father is here though, he wanted to join us.” Whispered Justice while he took a glance at the carriage.

Anne looks at the basic army carriage and whispered to Justice. “How is he? Is it alright for him to go with us?” She trying to make excuses because she doesn’t want to sound so condescending. “I mean, I know it’s been a month since… But…”

“It’s alright, don’t worry, my father Leon said it will be good for him.” He brushes her hair and goes to the other. That’s when they saw Arthur and Heirim riding horses and approaching them. “Arthur? Heirim? What are you doing here?” Asked the crown prince with a frown on his face.

Arthur got off his horse and bow to Justice, “Your majesty, we are here to assist you on the journey to Gendry town as the guard for King Edward.”

“Oh, from my mother, I see, alright, my father was inside the carriage. Anne and I will accompany him inside. You and Heirim could ride the horses at the rear of the carriage.” He gave Arthur his permit and nodded his head to Heirim, while he asked Anne to go inside the carriage. “I’ll go to meet the guard with the others. probably it is for the best if you go and sit with him right away.”

Anne would love to meet with King Edward again. He was kind to her, and she also loves to help him get through his grief. When the funeral of Prince Javier, Anne needs to sit in the corner, along with the long-time friends of the royalty. The empress was sobbing and wailing, really making the whole funeral a miserable drama, while her husbands grief in their own way.

“I’ll go inside, but, tell Brom to go inside the carriage with us.” She pleaded with Justice, even though the crown prince thought it was a ridiculous request. “King Edward needs to hear everything from Brom, and so does the other way around.”

“Makes sense.” Muttered Justice. He gave her a quick kiss on the lips and agreed with her. “Alright, I asked him to go with us.”

.....

Heirim is already used to it by now. Strangely enough, after she could let go of her obsession, she feels free and overall could just enjoy the life while waiting for her trial. Not for Arthur, his jealousy was apparent, and the only thing that he could do just stared at her from afar.

“I was like you before, you know.” Said Heirim to Arthur. “Vying on a man, thinking that he will be the one for you, even doing cruel things to an innocent girl who won his heart.”

Arthur scoffed at Heirim. “Heirim, I know all about your obsession with the crown prince and also the cruel thing that you do to Anne. I may be a bit gullible at first, but I catch up.”

“Then you know that she was already off-limit for you,” Heirim told him with gritted teeth. She got so annoyed by how stubborn Arthur was. “Seriously, Captain, open your eyes! She is happy. She is with her beloved, four gentlemen with high rank and prestige.”

“Just pack our things and put them into the first carriage. You can ride the carriage with your brother and let me ride the horse in the rear, alone.” Arthur just doesn’t want to be near Heirim right now. While the young lady was agape and just huffing her breath, and took her horse to the stable.

Henry was flustered to see his sister sitting beside the coach’s seat. He will be in charge to drive the carriage for today and will be taking shifts with Xavier and Xander. “What are you doing here?” Asked the knight captain to Heirim.

“My captain orders me to sit in the carriage, so… Here I am.” She tried to jest at her brother, although they never had any proper discussion as a sibling before, let alone jest around. “Just please let me sit here with you. I can’t stand that werewolf named Xander.” She was practically pleading with her brother.

“Fine, I’ll let you sit there.” Said Henry, finally giving in to his sister’s request. “Just mind you, though, I hate small talk.”

“So am I, look we are bonding already.” Said Heirim, so chirpy at her brother. Henry just rolled his eyes, seeing how ridiculous Heirim’s behavior lately is.

She sent Casca repeatedly to Henry, just to send him a good wish message. One day she even delivers cookies, which makes his subordinates tease him so much. Although, Anne consoles him and said that she meant well, and trying to bond as siblings.

“Give her time, Henry, forgive her and saw her as what she truly is now, a sister who seeks your forgiveness.” Said Anne back then, and now, with his blue eyes, he looks at her and wishes that forgiveness will come eventually, and they can be a regular sibling at last.

Xander was in the middle of packing the trunk when he saw two long platinum blonde hair on the coach seat. “Lady Heirim? I thought you were going on the journey riding behind with your captain?” Xander was surprised but also excited at this change.

Heirim, on the other hand, was smiling nervously at Xander, “Err… yes, hello. Looks like I will be here until Gendry town.”

“Really?!” Heirim almost jump from her seat, when Xander came to them with a very excited face.

Henry, who is surprised but also amused by their interaction, just pushes Xander away and tells him that he could become the next coachman for this carriage. Heirim was already looking so horrified at her brother’s promise to Xander.

Xavier came and called for Henry to look into the supplies. He goes to him with a wide smile on his face.

“Why are you smiling? Stop, it was terrifying.” Said Xavier with a wince on his face.

“Hey, two years ago I was one of the nobles who got a beguiling smile, and I think I still have it.” Henry protested and looks annoyed at his friend.

Vale came walking with Justice and tell them to go into their position. Brom gets inside the royal carriage, where King Edward and Anne were already inside and having some conversation going. The king looks at the weird magi and smiles. “Ah, you must be Brom.”

Brom nodded his head, “Yes, his majesty.”

Not long after, Justice came and close the door immediately. He looks at the group and said, “Everyone’s ready?” without waiting for an answer, he tap the carriage, allowing the coachman to guide the horse on the way to Gendry town.
