"These ornaments are beautiful!" Pavel said like a child while holding shells of different colors. I just followed him while he went around the market.

I don't know why he likes colorful things, it's an eyesore, to be honest. And until now, I'm still angry because my plan didn't work earlier. I was wrong, it looks like I'm going to last a long time on this mission. It is not easy to make this man evil. It sucks.

"Yuniko look at this." He faced me and suddenly held my hand causing me to see some images again. I was surprised when he put a bracelet on me.

I frowned as I looked at him. He was smiling and looked at the black bracelet that he put on my left hand. It had a heart-shaped blue color in the middle, it was small and alone.

"It's beautiful, look at this too," he said and raised his right hand, it was the same as the bracelet he wore on me. The wrinkles on my forehead slowly disappeared, and he smiled and looked at me.

"That, that's a symbol of our friendship," he said, then let go of my hand.

I looked at the bracelet. Symbol?

"From now on, I won't just treat you like a stranger, you'll be my friend," he said with a smile so I looked up at his smiling face.

I was stunned by what he said, I just looked at him, my brain couldn't process what he said. He went back to shopping for the things in front of him.

"From now on, I won't just treat you like a stranger, you'll be my friend," friend

I kept my gaze on Pavel's back who was happily looking at the decorations. This is the first time someone gave me something small and simple.

I looked at the bracelet he gave me. And this was also the first time someone told me I was a friend.

I looked back at that person again. Why are you like that? Why do you behave like that? I am not happy because you are too kind and too generous. I'm not happy because you're only making my mission more difficult.

This person…. I bent down and took a deep breath.

.. There is something about him that I can't figure out.

"Yuniko, come on." He said worried so I looked at him looking at the saleswoman. I approached him.

"I'm sorry." I heard what Pavel said so I looked at the girl in front of us who looked angry.

"You man, the ones here are not free. Everything is paid for, do you understand? You opened my goods right away and you haven't paid yet." said the woman so I looked at Pavel who was bowing. I frowned.

Why does he let this girl do that to him? He is the prince so he should be angry because he is not respected by the person he is in front of. I was saddened, I forgot that half of his face was covered so that he could not be recognized. I looked at the angry woman.

"Yuniko, do you have gold? I didn't know that there was a fee for the goods here," he said, then pointed to my bracelet and his bracelet.

"Two small pieces of gold are equal to these two, and this one too," he said then showed the ones he took. I'm so tired.

"Why did you take this thing when you didn't have any gold?" I asked, he just laughed and shrugged his shoulders.

"I didn't expect that I would fall in love with these things here," he said with a pout.

"Lend me some gold first, I'll return it to you later," he said. I grinned inside. I have a good plan. I looked at the woman.

"I'm just going to talk to him," I said, then put my arm around Pavel and turned my back on the woman.

"Listen," I said, then stuck to him.

"I don't have gold with me either," I whispered so he was surprised and looked at me.

"Well, how is that?" he asked. I smiled at him.

"I thought of something," I said, then came closer to him.

"When the woman is no longer looking at us, we will leave with the things you took," I said so she stopped and looked at me.

"That's bad," he said, so I was tormented.

"Yes, I know, but you don't have any gold, right? There are many people here who can take your purchases if we leave them." I said, making her frown even more.

"But it's still bad, Yuniko," he said, then walked away from me. He took a deep breath and looked at his hands.

"They are beautiful, but it is wrong for us to take them without paying." He said it made my blood boil. "It's only once, just once. Then you're a prince, everything you want can be obeyed." I said and he immediately shook his head.

"Yes, I am a prince, but it is not right for me to deceive my people." I closed my eyes in annoyance.

"I'm sorry Yuniko, but we have to return my bracelet, as well the bracelet I gave you," he said and looked at the woman, I bent my palm because of the anger.

Will he choose to apologize to that girl?! He is a prince! Everything he wants he can get!

I stared at Pavel who was talking to the woman and returning everything he had taken. I want to strangle his neck with so much annoyance.

I stopped and looked at the bracelet he gave me.

Does that mean we will return this too? No, I don't want to. Pavel has given it to me and once given to me, it cannot be taken back.

My eyes narrowed then I crossed my arms, I will not return it.

I saw that Pavel had finished talking to the woman who was annoyed because he returned her goods. Pavel looked at me and smiled sadly.

"Take it off Yuniko, put it back on the woman, I'll wait for you there." He was sad and passed me by. I was surprised by what he did so I turned to him and watched him walk away from me. What do I feel? Why do I feel sorry for him? I'm a demon and princesses like me have no mercy on humans.

"Hey you, take that off." My blood suddenly boiled when I heard the voice of the woman who ran the store behind me.

I immediately clenched my fist and grinned.

I slowly faced the woman behind me, her forehead was wrinkled and she was annoyed.

"Take it off." She said that made me smile.

"You don't have the right to order me," I said with a smile, causing her to get even angrier.

"Well, you're crazy, there's no payment with you so--" I dropped the five pieces of gold on her table, she was surprised by what I did and slowly the frown disappeared and she smiled at me.

"You two are easy to talk to." She said and handed me the things that Pavel had returned to her earlier. I looked into her eyes and smiled.

"I'll see you in hell," I said, then turned away from her carrying the things that Pavel wanted.

I let out a silly smile. Let's see if you don't die because of the gold I gave you. Those golds have a curse. Whoever touches it except me will die, all the insects will slowly come out of her body. And that will be the cause of her death. I'm the princess of hell and no one can give me an order. I'm the rules and the death,

I quietly observed the scene here at the top of a building outside the town with the prince. He was in awe of the colorful scenery up here, I rolled my eyes. The lights are so painful to the eyes, it would be nice if there were fires and many screaming human souls asking for help.

"It's really beautiful here," Pavel said with a smile so I looked at him, he was smiling while looking at the scenery. My eyes squinted, poor creature, it just came here.

He suddenly looked at me so I looked away, I heard his laugh so I was in agony. Does this one always laugh? What's so funny? Is he crazy?

"Thank you." Suddenly he said that made me stop. I slowly looked at him. He looked at me while smiling.

"Thank you for bringing me to this place, this is a night I will never forget." He said with a smile, my eyes widened as he suddenly came to me and hugged me.

I closed my eyes because of the images that suddenly appeared in my mind. I swallowed and immediately pushed Pavel away from me. He looked at me in shock so his eyes narrowed.

"I told you not to touch me," I said so he laughed and put his hand on his head.

"Sorry, I can't help it, because this is the first time someone brought me here," he said and looked at the scene again. I kept staring at him. I can't rest anymore, I'm confused. What are these things I see every time he touches me or our skins touch?

What are those images? I feel real but how did that happen?

I took a deep breath, I don't have to find out what those images are, my only goal here is to make him bad to finish my mission.

"By the way, what time are we going home?" He asked and looked at me.

"It's your choice," I said, then felt my back and took the bag I had been carrying earlier.

"Oh." I then gave him the bag, which he immediately caught.

"What is this?" He asked, making me cringe.

"Open that so you know." I then lie down on the floor and close my eyes.

Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet so I frowned and opened my eyes and then looked at Pavel, his eyes were wrinkled while looking at the contents of the bag. He looked at me.

"How did you get it?" He asked while looking at me, I laughed.

"I stole it," I answered and his eyes widened, I laughed out loud and then sat down.

"Of course I bought it," I said so his frown slowly disappeared and he smiled.

"But you said you didn't have any gold with you?" He asked and took the contents of the bag, I grinned.

"I can't lose a gold," I said looking ahead.

"And this bracelet? It's unique! How much gold did you spend? I'll pay you back in the palace." He said that's why I looked at him.

"Don't worry, I don't know anything about gold," I said grinning. Something came to my mind suddenly.

I watched him take out the things he took earlier that were inside the bag, The smile disappeared from my lips when I saw that he was holding the same bracelet as me. He looked at my hand and smiled.

"I thought you brought it back." He said and looked at me, I winced.

"Once it's given to me, it can't be taken back," I said and looked at him with a smile. I watched him put the bracelet in his hand, he looked at me and showed his hand where the bracelet was worn.

"There, I'm wearing the symbol of our friendship again." He said then put the things he took out inside the bag, I watched him until he finished putting them inside the bag, he suddenly looked at me and then smiled.

"You know you are the only friend of mine who brought me here." He said. I didn't say a word, I didn't have anything to say so I chose to remain silent. Then I don't even know if I was the first to bring him here.

"Bael and Cynrad, they always tell me that it's dangerous to go out of the palace because of people we don't know, they might do something bad to me, so they always remind me not to go out," he said. I heard his laugh.

"But they seem to be wrong because our constituents are kind." He said that's why I looked at him.

"Nothing happened to me that's why I can be sure that no harm will come to our subjects." He says.

"You made a mistake," I said so he looked at me, I looked in another direction.

"They're right, you don't know the people here yet so don't just trust them," I said.

He didn't answer so I looked at him.

"The rest of them are just human, you know that the person who will put you in harm's way is right in front of you," I said so he laughed.

"Are you saying you're going to put me in harm's way?" He asked with a laugh so I laughed

"What do you think?" I ask. He stopped laughing and smiled at me.

"No." He answered so the smile disappeared from my lips. Little by little, my face became serious while looking at him.

"Do you think I can be trusted?" I asked while looking into his eyes, I could read if he was just being forced into his answer or if he was lying.

He smiled at me while not taking his eyes off me.

"Yes, for me, you are kind and trustworthy." He said, my vision suddenly darkened, and I closed my eyes and calmed myself down.

"You're bad!"

"You have no heart!"

"You're a demon!"

"You are a plague!"

I heard the cries of the people I was punished with within hell and on earth. I opened my eyes and looked seriously at Pavel.

"Don't tell me that because you don't know me yet," I said coldly.

"But that's what I feel, you're a kind--"

"I'M NOT NICE!" I suddenly shouted so he stopped, he was surprised by what I did. I stood up and turned away from him, I could feel the footsteps of his friends.

"I don't have a heart and I'm not kind so don't tell me that again," I said coldly, just as the rooftop door opened and Pavel's friends spat out.

"Pavel! The dear king is looking for you! didn't we tell you not to go out!" Cynrad said annoyed and went straight to Pavel while Bael looked at me, I only gave him a cold stare.

"Bastard!" The king gave a strong slap to his son when he got close to him, the surroundings were quiet while looking at the two, I crossed my arms then leaned against the wall and watched them.

"Didn't I tell you that you can't leave the palace?" The king asked him angrily, Pavel just bowed his head and did not answer. Weak.

"How many times have I told you that you cannot leave the palace until you become king? Are you that stubborn?!" The king asked his son irritably, Pavel looked at his father.

"I'm sorry father, I won't do it again," Pavel said, his father immediately pinched his ear causing me to laugh and they looked at my behavior, I got a strange look from the king so I slowly straightened up and bowed.

"Sorry." I then said to stand properly.

"Who are you then?" The king asked, causing Pavel to look at his father.

"Isn't she the one you picked for me?" Pavel asked his father so the king looked at him with a frown.

"What are you talking about? The only one we got for you is a boy." The king said annoyed and looked at me, the soldiers immediately pointed their weapons at me so Pavel looked at me.

"Oi, just a moment. Put down your weapons, she's not bad." Pavel said but the soldiers didn't seem to hear what he said. They will probably follow the king, not the prince.

"How did you get in here?" The king asked me, and I smiled.

"My cousin is the only one you took for your son," I said so the king frowned.

"And he's resigned from his role as the only one for a reason I can't tell you," I said.

"You must be aware that the Yuniko ones we get for the prince are boys, why are you here?" The king asked. I laughed.

"I will probably replace my cousin as the prince's only child servant," I said.

"Hey girl, you are talking to a king so be respectful," Bael said irritably so I just smiled, why should I respect a creature that is inferior to me?

"Then, you can leave at our palace because you are not qualified to be our son's servant." This is why I pouted.

"Aww? why? All right." I said and turned around.

"Wait, father." Hearing Pavel's voice made me smile.

"You can't remove my new only Yuniko because there is no one to replace her as my servant yet." It said,

"I'll find a new Yuniko for you, another one. I'm sure she won't do you any good, I have a strong hunch that she's the one who told you to leave the palace so she didn't." said the king. Good, he felt that. It's not good, it's to reduce the number of ignorant people in this place.

"But father--"

"I said no, don't insist on what you want Pavel." The king said firmly.

I stepped one foot away from them but I was stunned by what Pavel said next.

"She wasn't the one who taught me to get out and run away from you." I raised my head and a smile slowly curved my lips. That I could smell the small scent of lies that flowed through Pavel's body.

"I was the one who insisted on leaving the palace and I told her to accompany me because I feel like you're just locking me up here," Pavel said firmly.

"Prince, that's not true." I heard Cynrad say. I stepped one foot away from them again.

"I feel like you don't want me to see the outside so I forced her to accompany me." I closed my eyes while smiling, the bad smell, when will you be added?

"I told you that until you become king you will not leave the palace."

"But father, how can I study the problems outside the palace if you don't allow me to go out? If there are a lot of bad people outside the gate, I wouldn't be here in front of you." Pavel said so I opened my eyes.

That's right, you answered your father.

"I'm only thinking about your safety."

"Safety, father? or only your own?" I stepped away from them again.

"Wait a minute." My smile widened when I heard what the king said.

I still heard it breathing deeply.

"What's your name?" This is why I stood up straight and turned to him.

"Ksara," I said. He looked at my head which is why I grabbed my little horn.

"Don't worry, this horn is fake.", I said while smiling, I looked into the king's eyes.

"I'm an avid fan of demons so I'm scheming," I said. I saw Pavel smile while looking at me.

"Ksara, from now on you will be the only Yuniko of the prince, and as it is your job to serve him, make sure you watch over him in all his actions and if he violates the order again, I will fire you, and kill you." He said this made me smile.

As if I fear.

"Next," I said and looked at Pavel who was smiling.

"As for you Pavel, the chief advisors and I have already discussed the test that will be done on you to test your leadership thinking." He said to his son then turned around and walked to sit on his throne.

I keep missing my throne, I'm sure that Alada is destroying my throne again.

"By the way, your majesty, our youngest, Siir, will be here," Cynrad said, `` that's why I looked at him, Siir? It looks like I have something to play with.

"She says that her parents want to talk to you." I looked at the king who frowned.

"Is that so? All right." The king said without emotion, I was surprised when Pavel suddenly approached me and smiled.

"Come on, I want to rest." He said so I nodded, he walked first so I followed him.

We were walking in silence in the corridor of the palace to his room when he spoke.

"By the way, was it right that I lied to my father?" He asked and stopped walking, he looked at me so I immediately shook my head saying no.

"That's not right," I said. That's right but I have to act in front of him.

"We both know that I forced you to come out," I said, he just smiled.

"But you're my friend and I'm not just a single person, if I hadn't lied, I'm sure you wouldn't have been by my side." He said so I was silent.

"Your name is Ksara, my name is Pavel. Nice to meet you." He said with a smile, I just watched him until he came to me again, which surprised me.

"Since you're officially my only one, I always have to have you by my side okay?" He asked, but I hesitated to answer.

"Promise me that you will never leave me." I was stunned by what he said, I stared into his eyes which were full of pleasure.

Promise? creatures like me do not keep promises and cannot make promises because there is no guarantee that we will be able to fulfill them. I was surprised when he took my left hand, causing the images I see every time he touches me to come out again. He put our little fingers together and looked at me with a smile.

"You already promised me, that's why I'm sure you won't leave me no matter what happens." He said so I looked at our little finger that was touching.

Did I promise him? Promise I won't leave him no matter what? Madness.
