It was a very big mansion and inside of one of its elegant room lays a very handsome eye catching prince who is sleeping pretty in its very soft white bed. He is aware of his surroundings even he’s asleep. Then he felt that someone had entered his room without his permission.
“Is that you, butler?”he berkata without an intention to arise from his bed. Keiza eyes where still close and he remained in his sleeping position.
“Yes Master Keiza, forgive me for intruding without your permission but I was just commanded by”

They never care for me
Akimo was about to enter the Pandemonium gate but when she saw a sushi vendor she run as fast as she can. She bought 2 sushi with hot sauce then runs towards the gate.
“Show your ring” berkata oleh the school guard who is staring angrily at her. Then Akimo showed her ring while eating the first sushi she bought.

“Amazing. How did anda know my name? Ah…I know, you’re one of my fans. anda want autograph, fine, I will be waiting just give me a ballpen.” Akimo berkata proudly while it seems that she irritates the guard
“Shame yourself! I know anda because anda are the only student here who receives last tahun the award entitled ‘the tardiest student’! You’re populer because of your tardiness and don’t be proud of it.”the guard exclaimed while his accent was bullying Akimo. Akimo was deeply embarrassed.

“Fine!” Akimo answered back, the guard chuckled while putting the late mark at the poor girl’s hand. Then after the process Akimo runs as fast as she can. She doesn’t want anyone to see that mark on her hand. Her hair is blazing as the sunlight reflects its light. Then, suddenly she stumbled down. Akimo felt an ache at her forehead, she realize that she bumped at someone. When she tries to check who it was, Akimo was shocked. It was a tall handsome boy. The boy is about her age and he seems to be accompanied oleh a well dress butler. This guy is a noble. He belongs to the higher order. What’s worst? Her sushi spilled at the handsome guy’s uniform. When Akimo is about to stand to beg for forgiveness, she saw the student ring, he wears a ring with red gem. She was stunned for a moment. Akimo realize that the boy she bumped is a Shinjiki ring bearer. The Shinjiki ring bearers in their campus were respected and they have the power to curse anyone’s ring. For the first time in my life, I think I’ll get a curse. She saw the butler’s eye was gazing with an angry sight at her. The butler approaches his master and cleans the spilled sushi on his clothes.
“Master, are anda all right? anda careless student look what have anda done!”the butler clamored. Akimo was alarmed. Akimo lowers her head deeply as she can.
“Ayatollah! I’m really sorry for my actions. I hope anda can forgive me.” she berkata nervously. She wanted to cry but she tried to prevent her tears that will burst from her eyes.
“What is your name?!” the butler exclaimed with a harsh voice that echoed at Akimo’s eardrum.
“I’m Shinoru Akimo, Hirotaku ring bearer. Lower C student” Akimo replied with a scared voice. Her lips shivered as she spoke. She remained her head lowered.
“Poor! Master Keiza, anda may now curse her tomfoolery ring. Anyway it has no worth.”the butler concluded while staring at his Master. He was shocked for the first time to saw an emotion coming from Keiza’s face.
“Raise your head up, and give me your hand wearing the ring.” Keiza talked with a lovely voice. His expression was unexplained while he is looking at the red haired girl at his front. Akimo slowly raised her head, there are so many rude people here. Akimo gave her hand wearing the ring. It shows a white gem with its dull color.
“Here, do what anda desire.” She berkata coldly while controlling her emotions. Anyway, it’s my fault. Keiza was suddenly Frozen because this girl in front of her reminds him something.
“Master, what are anda waiting for?”his butler’s asked. The butler seems to be excited to view how his master curses the poor girl’s ring.
Keiza grabbed her hand. Akimo is looking at her Hirotaku ring while thinking that it was the last time of being a ring bearer. On the other hand Keiza was in a deep thinking staring directly at the girl’s face. Then he says in a very cool voice
“What is your name again?” Akimo shivered.
“Shinoru Akimo.”Akimo replied with a nervous voice. Her hands were getting cold and her face was pale. The young man at her front can notice how nervous she was. Keiza shows a smile for the first time in his butler’s eyes.
“Master Keiza, we’re wasting our time…”the butler’s word was interrupted oleh the intrusion of Keiza’s words saying…”Shut up! No one can command me!”his master exclaimed at his butler angrily. He shows a scary sight that make his butler shivered for the first time. His usual cool façade was lost. Akimo nervousness arise, she began to notice that this Keiza-guy was directly staring at her.
“Why are anda staring at me? What are anda waiting for? Curse my ring!” Akimo hallooed with a scared and nervous expression. Keiza showed her a warming smile.
“Why? Do anda really want me to curse your ring?”he asked. Akimo looks blunt. Of course she doesn’t want.
“No,I don’t want, of course.”Akimo replied while she is trying to avoid their eye contact, but the butler of Keiza insisted
“Master, she’s careless. She deserves to be curse!”the tall butler exclaimed at Keiza. His master was then irritated. He raise his right hand wearing the ring towards the direction of his butler. Akimo stares at the boy’s hand as he sway and release a red light which directly hit the butler.
“Shinjiki I command you…make that butler mute and a stone for awhile.” He said, with a blink of an eye, the butler turned into a gray statue. The red light that was release oleh Keiza’s ring catches the whole attention of the students around the scene. Some of them peep from their room, while others went outside to see the nearest view of an interesting but dangerous display of a Shinjiki ring.
“Zheira, come here, look at that.” A student called for the attention of a short haired girl from their room located at the detik floor of the building. Zheira immediately look for the sumber of light.
“What’s with that light?”she berkata wondering where is it coming from, a red light which symbolizes the higher order.
“It’s the power of Prince keiza’s ring!” the student replied with astonishment and high accented voice.
“Do anda mean my Keiza? Where is he?”Zheira asked with a surprise on her face.
“There, near the big pohon of ceri, cherry blossom, he is holding a girl’s hand!”the student replied. Zheira’s excitement and smile vanished; instead, it was replaced oleh jealousness. That stupid girl! Who is she? How dare her to get my Keiza!
On the other hand, Akimo was amazed the same applied that she was scared. But she can’t take to see someone being tortured because of her fault. I can’t take this anymore. I’ll end this scene now!
“Hey anda unknown man! How dare anda to used your power to take away life of someone! pindah away that crap!”Akimo clamored angrily which shocked the boy in front of her. She removes her hand from the gripped of the guy’s hand. The whole crowd was disappointed of her behaviour towards the Prince of Pandemaceae.
“I don’t want anyone to command me. My butler crossed the line.”he replied with a cool voice.
“Even you’re strong, I’m…I’m not afraid! Yes..I’m not…I’m not afraid! Return him to normal!”Akimo commanded while she is pretendind to be brave enough. Keiza laughed.
“Why are anda laughing?”she asked wondering and then the handsome man stop.
“Nothing. Ok, if that’s what anda want. You’re like a monster when you’re angry.”he said. Keiza raised his hand in a vertical position and then command his ring to return his butler into normal. Within a second, the butler’s body return to life. When the butler’s consciousness returns, he immediately inhailed air. The butler stares at his master his body can’t pindah because of trauma.
“That teach anda a lesson. Never command me like my parents do!” Keiza said, but now in a calm voice. Akimo was stunned. She was fascinated oleh the power of a shinjiki ring. When she noticed that the boy was looking at her, she raise her hand wearing the ring.
“Now, do it, curse my ring!” Akimo berkata with hesitation
“How about if I don’t like?”the handsome boy replied while tampilkan a little smile
“Then, you’re kidding me. I disrespectedyou right? So what are anda waiting for?” Akimo berkata while she’s trying to avoid Keiza’s sight.
“Your beautiful hands do not deserve to be curse.” The handsome boy berkata while he is about to leave. Akimo was stunned, she knows that the boy was just kidding. It is obvious on his face. The crowd watching them was shocked. It was the first time for Keiza to shows his smile. Zheira was annoyed of what she saw, heard and experience. She lost her consciousness.
“Hey, what are anda talking about?” Akimo asked with an irritated expression towards the boy walking away from her.
“I can’t do it to your ring. That’s all, shut up your noisy mouth.”he berkata with a smile. For the first time, the smile that has been long lost to him,came back because of Akimo. The students watching them started to chat.
“Is the prince saying that his ring was weak?” a student asked at her companion.
“No, simply because that girl was hiding something.” A cool voice answered, the two student stares at their back and was surprise to see a tall eye-catching guy. Oh my god! It’s Keiza’s friend! Jahiro! All the girls around Jahiro give way to him. He looks at the girl that revive the smile of his best friend.
“But….hmmm…she doesn’t looks like it. Except for her hair and eyes that were shining when it hit the sunlight.” Jahiro whispered, then Keiza turned back to face Akimo
“I forgot to tell all of you…never cursed the ring of this dumb girl, atau else, you’ll undergo through my judgment. Understand?” Keiza inquired, the Orikami and Hirotaku bearers force themselves to bow . While there are few who didn’t, Keiza knows their faces, they are all Shinjiki bearers.
“Ayatollah Prince Keiza.”they said. They know that Akimo’s ring must receive a curse, but, they must follow their Prince, the successor of the King.
“Prince Keiza??”Akimo asked surprised. She doesn’t notice that the person whom she caused trouble was their prince. She heard the prince one time when her grandma told her. Akimo’s grandma’s keterangan berkata that the prince of their land was very good looking, tall, loyal, polite but lonesome. Well Grandma’s keterangan somehow fit.
“Yes?”the prince replied while having a playful smile.
“You’re the son of the Czar and Czarina?”Akimo asked disbelieving what she heard. Keiza laugh. I never expect her to be that stupid.
“Ciaso, why? Don’t anda know that the man anda had bumped and quarreled to was the prince?he berkata while putting his hands on the pocket of his pants.
“No….”Akimo replied in a mild voice.
“You’re funny. Akimo, anda have looks but anda lack this.” The prince exclaimed while pointing at his head.
“What?! anda don’t know me!”Akimo replied irritated. She wanted to meninju, pukulan Keiza’s face but she’s worried that she may get a curse. Keiza continued on walking towards the room of Upper A.
“ I know you.” Keiza replied then suddenly vanished from their sight. Teleportation? After Keiza had left, the students watching them lately go back to their rooms. Some of them talked bad things at Akimo, simply because they are jealous.
“Haiyhhh…now I have no lebih hopes to become the future Czarina.”a student berkata while applying make up in the comfort room upon witnessing the prince behavior towards the Lower C student named Akimo.
“Don’t loose hope, that girl, the future Czarina? No way! Dissensions among women will arise.”Another student exclaimed while fixing her hair. Suddenly a girl with red hair and red eyes enter. The two flirt students remember her face. She’s the girl before!
“I’m prettier than that Lower C student. A poor person can’t be the Czarina.” One said, they wanted to bully Akimo. They berkata a lot of painful things to her, but Akimo controlled her emotions. She doesn’t want anymore to cause trouble. Little things affect little minds, she berkata to herself, when the two students are about to go out they converse about something through their intuition.
We must teach her a lesson before we leave, berkata the student who first komentar about Akimo
But how? The prince berkata that we must not curse her ring. The other student replied, while looking irritated at Akimo. Akimo wondered what they are thinking about.
Then don’t use the power of our ring, instead, the power of our physical strength. she berkata with a scary sight at the girl they despised. Before they do their plan, the 2 rude students stares at each other and then walked towards Akimo. They clutch the two hands of the poor Akimo so that she can’t make unnecessary moves. In Akimo’s surprised, she struggles to be release.
“Hey, what are anda doing? It hurts!” Akimo clamored at the two girls bullying her, the 2 laugh at each other.
“Oh really? We’re glad!”they replied while pushing Akimo towards the cubicle.
“Stop this!”Akimo yelled at them. The two again look at each other.
“Who are anda to command us! anda flirt girl! We must teach anda where anda must put yourself!”they said. The two girls push Akimo’s face hardly towards the bowl. Akimo struggles to fight, but they are strong. She almost cried when her face was drowned at the water of the bowl. Akimo smelled the fowl odor. She even drinks some of its water when she grasped for air. Akimo heard the laugh of the two girls behind her, they really enjoyed the scene it almost last for five minutes. When the two noticed Akimo was already weak, at last they stop and push Akimo near the wall. Akimo stumbled down.
“So now, I think anda already learned.” One student complimented while they are about to go out. Even on their way, they laugh hardly.
“We may turn into an Ukotsuki if we don’t stop thinking of this.” A student remarked. Later on, they stop and forget what they had done. On the other hand, Akimo retrieve her energy oleh using the tourniquet healing power of her hirotaku ring. Am I having a nightmare? She felt pitty of herself. I’m so weak, I can’t even fight. Akimo wash her face with soap to remove the disgusting odor on her face.
“It’s because of that stupid Prince. It seems that all girls here in pandemonium are angry at me, and now I’m bullied oleh some of them.” She whispered. When the foul odor was already remove, she proceed towards the room of Lower C. That’s the place where I belong. I just hope that there will be no lebih students that will do the same thing atau the other way to me like just like what happened lately.
“I hate that Keiza-guy!” she yelled. Akimo suddenly heard footsteps coming from her back.
“Prince Keiza! Not Keiza, I’m the only one who called him like that! Stupid lower C student!” berkata oleh an angry voice. Akimo stares behind her and was nervous to see a short haired pretty girl staring at her.
“Who are you?” Akimo asked. She hides her nervousness. This girl might think I’m weak if I let her realize that I’m nervous.
“I’m Zheira, a middle B student and the future Czarina.” Zheira berkata proudly.
“Can anda repeat your last words?”Akimo said, she can’t believe that this boastful woman at her front will be the future Czarina. If she will be the future Czarina, all people of Pandemaceae will turn into an Ukotsuki!
“Then, do anda mean that if you’ll be the future Czarina, Pandemaceae will be prosperous? You’re poor, anda belongs to the third world. anda doesn’t deserves to be a ruler someday.” Zheira insisted which shocked Akimo. She can read my mind? Intuition…
“I’m not saying that I wanted to be the future Czarina! Can anda all please stop thinking that I like the Prince.” Akimo remarked, while her two knees are shivering. Zheira showed her a serious face.
“I will take your word for granted. It seems that anda suffered from fowl odor lately, but anda must remember one thing… ‘Take your word’.” Zheira insisted then teleported away. Akimo exhaled. It’s like a heavy baggage was remove from her. I have no match to an Orikami ring bearer. At last, she reach their room, this may be a far place from those bullies.
“Sorry If I’m late guys…”she said, her voice seems to be tired. All of her classmates approach her.
“Akimo you’re so lucky!” a student with a ponytail. I’m not lucky Yoshiko. If anda were just in place, you’ll never think that I’m lucky.
“The stone prince turncoat because of you, he likes you!” another classmate with a straight hair complimented. He is a bad luck.
“How was the hand of the prince?” a student asked her wondering. Ehhh, so addicted.
“I wish he will also hold my hand like that!”the straight haired girl remarked and she started to dream about it. You’re getting insane. Akimo’s classmate started to chat about the prince and Akimo.
“Neh Akimo-san, why you’re not answering back? Are anda not in mood?” Yoshiko asked her worrying. Akimo showed her best friend a smile.
“Oh nothing, I just let all of anda talk first.” She lied while scratching her hair.
“Liar, you’re just not in mood.”Yoshiko concluded, and she was right. Her best friend seems to know her lebih than herself.
“But I think the prince likes you…”Yoshiko added which irritates Akimo.
“What are anda talking about? I don’t care to that boastful prince! He puts me in a lot of trouble. That prince irritates me!” Akimo exclaimed angrily which made her classmates afraid except for Yoshiko. Her best friend remained at her side to comfort her while the others go away from them.
“He irritates anda because he likes you.”Yoshiko remarked
“Yoshiko!” Akimo yelled at her, she wants to end the conversation about Keiza.
“Ok, enough for this.” Yoshiko give up, Akimo doesn’t really want to talk about the prince. When everybody seems to change their topic, Akimo calmed down.
“Yoshiko, I missed you.” Akimo berkata towards her best friend since childhood. Yoshiko smiled.
“Me too, think positive Akimo. You’ll turn into an Ukotsuki if anda don’t.”Yoshiko warned her.
“I know, and I will never let this negative emotion to ruin my life.”Akimo replied, she is now relieved. As long as Yoshiko is here, her presence will cheer me up.
“That is my best friend!” Yoshiko exclaimed with a smile.
Akimo’s life started to change when she met Keiza, the prince of their land and their future King. Their first meeting doesn’t seem to be good for Akimo , but for the prince, it’s one of the happiest hari he ever had.
Pandemonium is the school of ring bearers in Pandemaceae. It is the place where they learned the basics of their powers and skills.

Some of them peep from their room, while others went outside to see the nearest view of an interesting but dangerous display of a Shinjiki ring.
“Zheira, come here, look at that.” A student called for the attention of a short haired girl from their room located at the detik floor of the building. Zheira immediately look for the sumber of light.
“What’s with that light?”she berkata wondering where is it coming from, a red light which symbolizes the higher order.
“It’s the power of Prince keiza’s ring!” the student replied with astonishment and high accented voice.
“Do anda mean my Keiza? Where is he?”Zheira asked with a surprise on her face.
“There, near the big pohon of ceri, cherry blossom, he is holding a girl’s hand!”the student replied. Zheira’s excitement and smile vanished; instead, it was replaced oleh jealousness. That stupid girl! Who is she? How dare her to get my Keiza!
On the other hand, Akimo was amazed the same applied that she was scared. But she can’t take to see someone being tortured because of her fault. I can’t take this anymore. I’ll end this scene now!
“Hey anda unknown man! How dare anda to used your power to take away life of someone! pindah away that crap!”Akimo clamored angrily which shocked the boy in front of her. She removes her hand from the gripped of the guy’s hand. The whole crowd was disappointed of her behaviour towards the Prince of Pandemaceae.
“I don’t want anyone to command me. My butler crossed the line.”he replied with a cool voice.
“Even you’re strong, I’m…I’m not afraid! Yes..I’m not…I’m not afraid! Return him to normal!”Akimo commanded while she is pretendind to be brave enough. Keiza laughed.
“Why are anda laughing?”she asked wondering and then the handsome man stop.
“Nothing. Ok, if that’s what anda want. You’re like a monster when you’re angry.”he said. Keiza raised his hand in a vertical position and then command his ring to return his butler into normal. Within a second, the butler’s body return to life. When the butler’s consciousness returns, he immediately inhailed air. The butler stares at his master his body can’t pindah because of trauma.
“That teach anda a lesson. Never command me like my parents do!” Keiza said, but now in a calm voice. Akimo was stunned. She was fascinated oleh the power of a shinjiki ring. When she noticed that the boy was looking at her, she raise her hand wearing the ring.
“Now, do it, curse my ring!” Akimo berkata with hesitation
“How about if I don’t like?”the handsome boy replied while tampilkan a little smile
“Then, you’re kidding me. I disrespectedyou right? So what are anda waiting for?” Akimo berkata while she’s trying to avoid Keiza’s sight.
“Your beautiful hands do not deserve to be curse.” The handsome boy berkata while he is about to leave. Akimo was stunned, she knows that the boy was just kidding. It is obvious on his face. The crowd watching them was shocked. It was the first time for Keiza to shows his smile. Zheira was annoyed of what she saw, heard and experience. She lost her consciousness.
“Hey, what are anda talking about?” Akimo asked with an irritated expression towards the boy walking away from her.
“I can’t do it to your ring. That’s all, shut up your noisy mouth.”he berkata with a smile. For the first time, the smile that has been long lost to him,came back because of Akimo. The students watching them started to chat.
“Is the prince saying that his ring was weak?” a student asked at her companion.
“No, simply because that girl was hiding something.” A cool voice answered, the two student stares at their back and was surprise to see a tall eye-catching guy. Oh my god! It’s Keiza’s friend! Jahiro! All the girls around Jahiro give way to him. He looks at the girl that revive the smile of his best friend.
“But….hmmm…she doesn’t looks like it. Except for her hair and eyes that were shining when it hit the sunlight.” Jahiro whispered, then Keiza turned back to face Akimo
“I forgot to tell all of you…never cursed the ring of this dumb girl, atau else, you’ll undergo through my judgment. Understand?” Keiza inquired, the Orikami and Hirotaku bearers force themselves to bow . While there are few who didn’t, Keiza knows their faces, they are all Shinjiki bearers.
“Ayatollah Prince Keiza.”they said. They know that Akimo’s ring must receive a curse, but, they must follow their Prince, the successor of the King.
“Prince Keiza??”Akimo asked surprised. She doesn’t notice that the person whom she caused trouble was their prince. She heard the prince one time when her grandma told her. Akimo’s grandma’s keterangan berkata that the prince of their land was very good looking, tall, loyal, polite but lonesome. Well Grandma’s keterangan somehow fit.
“Yes?”the prince replied while having a playful smile.
“You’re the son of the Czar and Czarina?”Akimo asked disbelieving what she heard. Keiza laugh. I never expect her to be that stupid.
“Ciaso, why? Don’t anda know that the man anda had bumped and quarreled to was the prince?he berkata while putting his hands on the pocket of his pants.
“No….”Akimo replied in a mild voice.
“You’re funny. Akimo, anda have looks but anda lack this.” The prince exclaimed while pointing at his head.
“What?! anda don’t know me!”Akimo replied irritated. She wanted to meninju, pukulan Keiza’s face but she’s worried that she may get a curse. Keiza continued on walking towards the room of Upper A.
“ I know you.” Keiza replied then suddenly vanished from their sight. Teleportation? After Keiza had left, the students watching them lately go back to their rooms. Some of them talked bad things at Akimo, simply because they are jealous.
“Haiyhhh…now I have no lebih hopes to become the future Czarina.”a student berkata while applying make up in the comfort room upon witnessing the prince behavior towards the Lower C student named Akimo.
“Don’t loose hope, that girl, the future Czarina? No way! Dissensions among women will arise.”Another student exclaimed while fixing her hair. Suddenly a girl with red hair and red eyes enter. The two flirt students remember her face. She’s the girl before!
“I’m prettier than that Lower C student. A poor person can’t be the Czarina.” One said, they wanted to bully Akimo. They berkata a lot of painful things to her, but Akimo controlled her emotions. She doesn’t want anymore to cause trouble. Little things affect little minds, she berkata to herself, when the two students are about to go out they converse about something through their intuition.
We must teach her a lesson before we leave, berkata the student who first komentar about Akimo
But how? The prince berkata that we must not curse her ring. The other student replied, while looking irritated at Akimo. Akimo wondered what they are thinking about.
Then don’t use the power of our ring, instead, the power of our physical strength. she berkata with a scary sight at the girl they despised. Before they do their plan, the 2 rude students stares at each other and then walked towards Akimo. They clutch the two hands of the poor Akimo so that she can’t make unnecessary moves. In Akimo’s surprised, she struggles to be release.
“Hey, what are anda doing? It hurts!” Akimo clamored at the two girls bullying her, the 2 laugh at each other.
“Oh really? We’re glad!”they replied while pushing Akimo towards the cubicle.
“Stop this!”Akimo yelled at them. The two again look at each other.
“Who are anda to command us! anda flirt girl! We must teach anda where anda must put yourself!”they said. The two girls push Akimo’s face hardly towards the bowl. Akimo struggles to fight, but they are strong. She almost cried when her face was drowned at the water of the bowl. Akimo smelled the fowl odor. She even drinks some of its water when she grasped for air. Akimo heard the laugh of the two girls behind her, they really enjoyed the scene it almost last for five minutes. When the two noticed Akimo was already weak, at last they stop and push Akimo near the wall. Akimo stumbled down.
“So now, I think anda already learned.” One student complimented while they are about to go out. Even on their way, they laugh hardly.
“We may turn into an Ukotsuki if we don’t stop thinking of this.” A student remarked. Later on, they stop and forget what they had done. On the other hand, Akimo retrieve her energy oleh using the tourniquet healing power of her hirotaku ring. Am I having a nightmare? She felt pitty of herself. I’m so weak, I can’t even fight. Akimo wash her face with soap to remove the disgusting odor on her face.
“It’s because of that stupid Prince. It seems that all girls here in pandemonium are angry at me, and now I’m bullied oleh some of them.” She whispered. When the foul odor was already remove, she proceed towards the room of Lower C. That’s the place where I belong. I just hope that there will be no lebih students that will do the same thing atau the other way to me like just like what happened lately.
“I hate that Keiza-guy!” she yelled. Akimo suddenly heard footsteps coming from her back.
“Prince Keiza! Not Keiza, I’m the only one who called him like that! Stupid lower C student!” berkata oleh an angry voice. Akimo stares behind her and was nervous to see a short haired pretty girl staring at her.
“Who are you?” Akimo asked. She hides her nervousness. This girl might think I’m weak if I let her realize that I’m nervous.
“I’m Zheira, a middle B student and the future Czarina.” Zheira berkata proudly.
“Can anda repeat your last words?”Akimo said, she can’t believe that this boastful woman at her front will be the future Czarina. If she will be the future Czarina, all people of Pandemaceae will turn into an Ukotsuki!
“Then, do anda mean that if you’ll be the future Czarina, Pandemaceae will be prosperous? You’re poor, anda belongs to the third world. anda doesn’t deserves to be a ruler someday.” Zheira insisted which shocked Akimo. She can read my mind? Intuition…
“I’m not saying that I wanted to be the future Czarina! Can anda all please stop thinking that I like the Prince.” Akimo remarked, while her two knees are shivering. Zheira showed her a serious face.
“I will take your word for granted. It seems that anda suffered from fowl odor lately, but anda must remember one thing… ‘Take your word’.” Zheira insisted then teleported away. Akimo exhaled. It’s like a heavy baggage was remove from her. I have no match to an Orikami ring bearer. At last, she reach their room, this may be a far place from those bullies.
“Sorry If I’m late guys…”she said, her voice seems to be tired. All of her classmates approach her.
“Akimo you’re so lucky!” a student with a ponytail. I’m not lucky Yoshiko. If anda were just in place, you’ll never think that I’m lucky.
“The stone prince turncoat because of you, he likes you!” another classmate with a straight hair complimented. He is a bad luck.
“How was the hand of the prince?” a student asked her wondering. Ehhh, so addicted.
“I wish he will also hold my hand like that!”the straight haired girl remarked and she started to dream about it. You’re getting insane. Akimo’s classmate started to chat about the prince and Akimo.
“Neh Akimo-san, why you’re not answering back? Are anda not in mood?” Yoshiko asked her worrying. Akimo showed her best friend a smile.
“Oh nothing, I just let all of anda talk first.” She lied while scratching her hair.
“Liar, you’re just not in mood.”Yoshiko concluded, and she was right. Her best friend seems to know her lebih than herself.
“But I think the prince likes you…”Yoshiko added which irritates Akimo.
“What are anda talking about? I don’t care to that boastful prince! He puts me in a lot of trouble. That prince irritates me!” Akimo exclaimed angrily which made her classmates afraid except for Yoshiko. Her best friend remained at her side to comfort her while the others go away from them.
“He irritates anda because he likes you.”Yoshiko remarked
“Yoshiko!” Akimo yelled at her, she wants to end the conversation about Keiza.
“Ok, enough for this.” Yoshiko give up, Akimo doesn’t really want to talk about the prince. When everybody seems to change their topic, Akimo calmed down.
“Yoshiko, I missed you.” Akimo berkata towards her best friend since childhood. Yoshiko smiled.
“Me too, think positive Akimo. You’ll turn into an Ukotsuki if anda don’t.”Yoshiko warned her.
“I know, and I will never let this negative emotion to ruin my life.”Akimo replied, she is now relieved. As long as Yoshiko is here, her presence will cheer me up.
“That is my best friend!” Yoshiko exclaimed with a smile.
Akimo’s life started to change when she met Keiza, the prince of their land and their future King. Their first meeting doesn’t seem to be good for Akimo , but for the prince, it’s one of the happiest hari he ever had.
