Chapter 4- The Silent Night
The night before the festival, citizens from many town had gathered in Prontera city. The quiet town have been lightened up with laughter and voices. Evryone in town carrying high hopes for tommorow's festival.
However, the church still maintain its silence. The saint as usual sitting at the bench in the church abbey praying for everything especially for her lost friend, Miyana. At that night, after praying she went back to her room, she gently open the window, soft breeze blew in .... The saint took out a box from her drawer then she open it gently , a cross shape necklace with a small white jewel stone in the middle of the cross shinning with glimmering light show itself. She hold the necklace and gaze at the silver moon. Small watery drops flow down her cheeks as if she remembered some sad memories .
''Where are you ... Loreto..''she whispered with tears on her face and with the necklace in her hand.
When Miyana is with her, she thought she could start a new life with Miyana in the church and slowly forget the past. Loreto... a boy with a pair of kind and bright eyes .. she still remember them.. As she remember them, she cried out....
''Forgive me... Please forgive me ......''
As she were deep within her thoughts, someone walked in...
''My lady ?? Are you alright?'' a young priest asked . He could have know the answer just by looking at the saint's eyes..
The saint kept quiet ...She didnt want anyone to be worried about her .. She tried her very best to act as usual... but she knew she cant ..... the dark memories has been awakened... So, she decided to find peace at somewhere...
''Father, may I take my leave for now ....T.T''
''My lady, its dark outside ...''the priest was worried..
''Father...''
''If you insist then you may go but please be back early ..And please dont forget about tommrow's festival''the priest only can let her go. He had no choice, the saint looked like she really need a break. He was so afraid that the soft and pure looking girl infront of his eyes will be sad.
''Thank you father...'' then she walk out of the room.
Its her first time to step out of the church after 10 long years . She wasnt allowed to go out since she is an important person to the church. She looked at the night scenery of Prontera,it seems like the moon look bigger and the stars brighter outside of Prontera.
As she was observing the night scenery and walking, she accidentally knock someone ... She fell down but later she stood up... She hurry up and apologize..
''Sorry sir....''she say it in a frighthen tone as that guy around her age look at her like this -_-..
''My Lord, are you alright'' Alice looked at her master .Well, she was worried about her master although the one who fell down was the saint...
''Na, I m fine'' the prince smiled at Alice and turn his face towards the saint.
''Ah... those fake people .... ''the prince said emotionless when he saw her in her acolyte robe..
''.....''the saint kept quiet ....she dont understand why this guy is acting this way..But since its her fault , she just endure his words.
''Wow, you are a quiet one aren't you....''the prince thought back the incident happen 5 years ago when the pope plead for his life and he started to insult the saint more and more ...but the saint is not paying attention to him...she realize she lost something important ...she look everywhere but she dont cant find the box... Well, the saint doesnt have good eye sight during at night...
''Are you listening to me.... Ah, I forgot you guys only know how to act infront of those innocent citizens...'' the prince got annoyed .....
''box...box....''the saint only mumbled these words...
Then, the prince saw a black box.... He picked up the box and look at it... ''Why issit some familiar'' he thought in his heart... As he open the box, the saint rush up to him and snatch the box.... The prince got shock of the saint's act....
''What you think you are doing'' the prince question the saint perhaps he had forgotten the box doesnt belong to him.....
''You can take whatever from me but not this box..... '' the saint started to plead...
''Even your life ??'' the prince said coldly....
The saint look at the prince and she thought about what had happen 10 years ago.... and she nodded..
''.......'' the prince stunned as he saw her reaction. She didnt plead for her life ...Her eyes convey a strong message that she doesnt fear death. At the same time, he saw the saint holding the box tightly as if she wants to bring it along even upon her death.
'' I m ready'' the saint close her eyes. At this momment, some part of his memories was awaken..
He draw his sword and pointed at her.... But suddenly....an arrow came behind of him.... The prince evaded the arrow and turn his back...
''You shouldnt kill anyone in the town.....'' the archer said . The prince laughed ....
''Why are you laughing.....X.x''the archer asked curiosly...well she was blur actually...
''Hmm... nothing'' the prince kept on laughing.... and this annoyed the archer.... The archer draw two arrows and aimed at the prince... However, the prince evade it again....
''You...you..... I dare you to stand there .... and let me shoot''the acher say angrily..
The prince started to laugh again... and he replied
''DO you mean ----> I dare you to die....'' prince find this girl quite entertaining .....
The archer just stood there and kept on stomping her leg... At this time. the acolyte came...
''Freya, finally found you.......Erm... You dont look good..''Kazuya asked Freya
''Really..... I m fine....I think I m fine.... Nono.....I m not fine....'' well Freya old attitude appear again....
''Freya, are you alright seriously......''
''No..I m not ....this guy here tried to kill the young acolyte ....'' Freya just tell evrything to Kazuya.
''Ah, Sir .Please leave this acolyte alone.If this young lady had done anything wrong, you can bring her to the Prontera safety centre or to the church council . I believe they will take immediate action if she really done anything against the law.''
The prince kept quiet .... He thought why all the people he met today seems so different from he met 5 years ago... They are so naive...in other words stupid...However, he thinks they are interesting..at least they caught his attention .
''Well, today ......''the prince didnt manage to finish his sentence ..
''HEY! Can you guys SHUT UP.!''someone came into the scene....
Everyone look at that little mage with her maid behind her...
''Dont you guys dare to stare at me especially with your eyes...''the mage yelled...

''Ms Anna .....''Myra tried to approach her mistress...
''Shut up! Myra!'' perhaps the wrong timing.. At this time , someone reacted..
''Myra?''Alice finally spoken...
''Alice.....''Myra looked at Alice ...She dont believe her eyes..
