Chapter 560: Earning a trip
"Princess Elliana, Ready?" Prince Santo asked.
Elliana nodded with a hum.
"Prince Vincenzo, ready?" Prince Santo asked Vincenzo, who cracked the bones in his neck before nodding.
"Heck, yeah!" Vincenzo said, and Elliana scoffed.
"What are you betting here, Glory?" Vincenzo suddenly asked.
Betting? Everyone looked at each other.
"Come on, don’t you guys think it would be useless and no fun if there is no betting? I think she should bet something too," Vincenzo smirked.
Elliana smiled meticulously.
"What do you want, Prince Vincenzo?" Elliana asked.
"Ummm... How about going on a vacation with me? I always wanted to elope with you a year ago, remember?" Vincenzo asked.
Sebastian who was busy taking the call and talking to Harry, heard his words, his beast immediately alerting inside him.
However, he didn’t react. He just turned around and looked at his brother and wife.
"Prince Vincenzo, have you lost your mind? Do you want Sebastian to take over this battle and beat you into a pulp instead? You know taking Princess Elliana away from him is out of the topic," Prince Marcus said.
However, Vincenzo didn’t say anything. He just kept looking at Elliana, who was looking dead in his eyes.
"How many days?" Elliana asked after a few seconds.
Sebastian’s brows quirked while he continued to talk to his subordinate.
He knew if his Princess was being laid back about this, something was cooking in her mind, and for some reason, he didn’t worry about that.
It was alright for him as long as she was happy.
"How about a week?" Vincenzo asked, and Elliana smiled.
"Okay. Deal. I will go on vacation with you for a week," Elliana said, making everyone look at Sebastian at some distance who surprisingly didn’t react.
"What about you? What would you want from me if you won?" Vincenzo asked.
Elliana smiled.
"How about I keep this wish due? I don’t have anything particular in mind at the moment. But I will ask you in the future. Does that sound alright?" Elliana asked.
Vincenzo hummed.
"Okay. The deal is final then. Let’s go," Vincenzo said.
Prince Santo raised his hand in the air and hit the bell, making a loud ringing sound echo in the royal palace.
Elliana immediately brought her hand in the air, facing the sky. Everyone noticed how she immediately created a shield that would protect her powers from going out.
The mothers immediately stood from their places, looking at their princess with an edginess now that they realized she was going to use her witch powers.
Sebastian immediately pressed his lips into a thin line, his gaze shifting to his brother who looked like he kind of expected this to happen.
What was going on here? Was his brother already expecting defeat? If yes, then why did he propose battling with his princess in the first place?
"Princess Elliana," Freya immediately spoke, biting her bottom lip.
Vincenzo looked at his mother in shock, his pupils dilated.
"What are you doing, mom? Do you not trust me?" Vincenzo clenched his jaws, and Freya shook her head at him.
"Don’t you realize, Vincenzo? They were sparring with each other and Princess was using her powers on Sebastian because he is immune to them. Do you think you are the same?" Freya asked.
Rather than answering his mother, Vincenzo used his vampire speed and attacked Elliana in full swing, taking the girl by surprise who immediately pulled out her sword, barely countering his attack right in time before she stepped back, standing at enough good distance from the prince.
"She is not inhumane, Mom Freya. She knows who to use her powers with and who not. Do you perhaps not trust her?" Prince Angelo was the one to speak this time.
Elliana looked at the man who was the first one to speak on behalf of her.
A subtle smile appeared on her face as she looked at him gratefully.
"Thank you for trusting me, Prince Angelo," Elliana whispered.
Sebastian looked at the girl, his gaze neutral as he watched everything unfolding in front of him.
"Princess-" Sebastian started speaking, but Prince Angelo cut him off.
"I will always trust you, Princess. You have been my favorite member from the moment you jumped from that second cliff to have fun with all of us. I know you don’t have any wrong intentions. You are someone who brought life to our family," Prince Angelo said.
Elliana’s eyes brimmed with tears.
"You are a part of our family and we trust you as much as we trust everyone else," Angelo added, walking to the girl, and caressing her hair.
"Thank you for accepting me," Elliana whispered.
Angelo hummed softly.
"I will always accept you," he said before looking at his brothers.
"We all will," He whispered and everyone nodded.
"That’s such a wholesome thing to say, Prince Angelo," Sebastian walked to his wife, immediately catching Elliana’s gaze that looked like it had forgotten where she was standing as she kept looking at his domineering stance while he walked towards her. Such a loyal wife she was.
"Are you planning to use your magic?" Sebastian asked his wife, who nodded unapologetically.
"Can I ask what kind?" Sebastian asked, his hands caressing her cheeks.
"Since it’s sword fighting and Prince Vincenzo has the benefits of being a vampire and using the strength and speed, I shall have the benefits of engraving my sword with my magic and lacing it with my Magna. I think that’s a fair deal," Elliana said.
Sebastian hummed.
Now that he looked at her, the resolution of her eyes didn’t waver from the last time, but it was surely different.
"If that’s what you want," Sebastian said before he looked at Vincenzo.
"You don’t have a problem with that, right?" He asked and Vincenzo shook his head.
"I am fine with it," Vincenzo sighed.
"I don’t know why you guys are fussing over a normal battle. It’s not like we are after each other’s head. Stop treating it like it’s some kind of professional battle rather than sparring, will you?" Vincenzo said, his gaze moving to Elliana who didn’t smile and nod like he had expected her to do.
"Right, Glory?" Vincenzo asked to confirm, but Elliana barely hummed, looking back at her husband, ignoring Vincenzo’s friendly smile once again.
"Do you think I will go easy on you just like Mr. Marino went easy on me? Not to mention now that the bet is on the table? Indeed, I won’t use my Magna directly on you, but if I were you I wouldn’t be so relaxed about everything," Elliana said.
Vincenzo’s smile finally faltered.
He started to see a pattern in Elliana’s way of talking with him. He looked at her carefully, finally realizing that whatever happening between them wasn’t just a friendly banter anymore.
"Princess Elliana-" He finally became serious, not calling her Glory anymore as he started to speak, but Elliana interrupted him before he could say anything else.
"Prince Vincenzo, I hate to break it to you, but I have other appointments too. This is not the only battle I am fighting today if you remember correctly," Elliana dismissed what Vincenzo was about to speak.
"Let’s start," Elliana said.
Sebastian and Santo immediately walked out of the training field.
Elliana got into a fighting stance, and without waiting, she jerked her hand holding the sword forward. The magna immediately started flowing in the sword, and she looked at Vincenzo, curling two fingers of her left hand as she motioned him to attack her.
Everyone held their breath as Vincenzo used his vampire speed and rushed towards her.
The sound of the swords clinking echoed on the battlefield.
"I will get that trip with you by hook or by crook," Vincenzo seethed to Elliana, his words loud enough for Prince Angelo and Santo to hear as they were closest to them.
"Is that so? Let’s see," Elliana pushed him and turned around, kicking his legs, making him jump back as he smirked at her.
"Already wanting to make me bow? Not so soon, Princess," Vincenzo said before he used his vampire speed to circle around her, hitting her as soon as she looked behind herself.
As soon as his sword reached near her neck, Elliana placed her sword there, barely saving herself the second time.
’Concentrate, Princess. We have gone over this. If your opponent is using his speed as a plus factor against you, you need to focus your magna into increasing your speed so you are faster than him,’ Sebastian talked to her through the mind link, treating this battle as her personal training.
Elliana nodded at herself.
’Okay,’ She whispered before she briefly closed her eyes, opening her eyes.
She raised herself in the air, raising her hand.
’Attacke,’ She whispered to her powers, who immediately took over her, making her land on the ground back with so much force that Vincenzo literally had to use his vampire speed to protect himself from her attack.
He knew there was no way he would be able to counterattack her.
Since Vincenzo ran away, Elliana’s sword hit the ground instead, and everyone noticed the large hollow crack that appeared on the entire training ground, making Freya gasp in shock and fall unconscious.
"Mom!" Angelo rushed to Freya, making everyone rush towards the lady while Elliana looked at Sebastian who shook his head at her to tell her she didn’t do anything wrong.
But did she really not?
