Chapter 388 - Hypocrite (1/2)

Allen didn't immediately reply; he never does. He has this bad habit of pausing and frowning a lot whenever she asks questions he can't answer. More like he can answer those questions, however, because of his position, he can't. Forget it, she glanced up and noticed a few people approaching. Lyn immediately switched onto socializing mode.

This atmosphere, even now it's difficult for her. Maybe if she wasn't so good at analyzing people. Peoples smiles, the expressions they make on their faces. The people here only smile because they are trying to seek benefits from the person they approach.

One thing people have to remember when attending these events is this. Anyone who approaches you here has hidden intentions. Behind those fake smiles and compliments - these people desire so much. Desire power, to the point they will do anything to get it. Lyn slipped away after a short while. Allen was far too busy, so he didn't notice her leave the room.

She made her way down the hallways; it was dark and empty. Everybody was inside the hall.

Lyn glanced up at the sky; she doesn't remember where she heard this saying before. But it said that every single star in the sky represents a person's destiny. That's why people are made to believe that they can see them. But no human can see them clearly enough.

She extended her hands out as she spoke the next words rather softly, ”They are always shining in the sky. But it's not humanly possible to reach them…” It was faint and very quiet. Nobody is around to hear them, anyway.

'Even though a person with a strong fighting spirit doesn't reach the end. As long as he shows that he tries his best to make their dreams come true, then they will have a happy ending. Other people withdraw their hands so early in their life even without trying.'

Kazuya, his tone seems so sad when he said those words even though they were having a moment then.

That is the voice of someone who has already seen it all, someone who has experienced it first hand. 'That's why, whatever happens, I am not going to lose my courage or give up on my dreams.'

She sees his ambition once again shown from his brightest eyes.

Kazuya's dream is to seize all the stars in his hand.

But what about the present her? Is there anything she can do to help him? 'As long as your beside me, such a dream is possible, is it?'

He always said such foolish sounding things. Still, whenever he said them, he would do so while holding her tightly in his arms. Her thoughts broke of when she felt an approaching presence.

”Zepher..”

Zepher smiled and extended his hand out, ”I'm here. Come.”

Lyn nodded and made her way over. He immediately pulled her into his arms. ”Lyn, I obtained permission. You can do as you like.”

Her eyes widened when she heard those words. ”It's okay?”

”Investigate as you please, you don't have to hide. Spread your influence as the Second Princess. No, as the one who will take the throne.”
