Chapter 1172


    She truly hoped for a chance to go on an expedition with David. If that ever happened, it would


    definitely be a thrilling and unforgettable experience.


    However, her identity meant that her wish would nevere true.


    Things had been slightly better when she had first returned to Royal.


    Every day, the older boys dropped by to have a chat and spend time with her.


    However, they had gotten busier over the past few days, and did not have time to apany her


    anymore.


    Everyone in the Royal Pce seemed to have a nervous look on their faces. Princess Astrid had not


    seen her father except on the day she returned home.


    She knew that everyone was busy with the Sangruil Sinners.


    The Sangruil Sinners had made an aggressive appearance this time, and there was no doubt of a


    massive war between them and the Empire.


    Her father, brothers, and uncles were all busying up with ways to deal with the Sangruil Sinners.


    To be honest, Princess Astrid was grateful for the Sangruil Sinners‘ appearance. If they had not


    appeared, she would never have met David. If that were the case, she would still be peacefully


    journeying through the differents before she returned to Royal and continued living life as


    she always had. Now, after David‘s entrance into her life, it felt as if someone had thrown a rock and


    created ripples in her previously calm life.


    She initially had nothing to look forward to in her life, but now she did.


    She hoped David would fulfill his promise as soon as possible and visit her at Royal.


    However, her gratitude had limits.


    Princess Astrid did not want the evil Sangruil Sinners to win, nor did she want her father, brothers, and


    uncles to get hurt. She hoped her father would drive them away as quickly as possible, and that the


    people of the Royal Region could live in peace once more.


    After staring out the window for some time, Princess Astrid got up and walked to another room. She sat


    in front of a dulcimer, ced her hands upon it, and began plucking the strings with her nimble fingers.


    Melodious notes rang out.


    Sadly, there were no people other than a few servants nearby.


    Which meant only a few people got to hear the beautiful melodies she created.


    After all, Princess Astrid was the Harp Fairy.


    She had not been given the title simply because she was a princess. It was because the melodies she


    created with the dulcimer were truly enchanting and enthralling Princess Astrid did not get up after she


    finished ying the piece. Instead, she recalled the piece she had performed for David. Besides her


    father and brothers, David was the first man who had gotten to watch her perform in private. Yes, that


    probably counted as a first!


    Unfortunately, there were so many other firsts that she did not have enough time to dedicate them all to


    David.


    She wondered when he would have time to visit Royal again.


    ‘He promised me.


    “So, he‘lle, right?


    ‘He wille.


    ‘I‘ll never forgive him if he doesn‘te. ‘I‘ll get Father to arrest him and make him his son–inw. ‘But


    will that displease him?


    ‘Who cares, he can be displeased for all I care!


    ‘He refuses toe to visit me anyway.

    ‘I don‘t care if he‘s happy or not!‘


    Princess Astrid thought to herself.


    When the sounds of Princess Astrid‘s ying stopped, a servant appeared at the entrance. Upon


    seeing Her Royal Highness staring into space… She did not dare interrupt her and merely stood


    nearby waiting. Her Royal Highness had begun staring at nothing ever since she returned from her trip.


    Often, she would spend entire mornings staring into space. Sometimes, she would evenugh out loud.


    Her Royal Highness had never acted this way in the past. Her friends were all wondering if Her Royal


    Highness had been cursed.
