"What made you come here?" *ask the Mr. Sketchy*
*smile* "Mr. Tailor, His Excellency Duke Verduny Amethyst invite you to his manor tomorrow"
*snap* "Who did he think he is? He is just a mere Duke!" *Mrs. Stitchy starting to get mad*
*smile* "Yes, he is just a mere Duke and you're just a mere tailors."
The two tailors get annoyed.
*sigh* "Why did the duke invited us?" *Mrs. Stitchy trying to calm herself*
*smile* "The Duke want to made a dress for the Duchess and an attire for himself that will they wear to attending The Second Prince wedding"
*smirk* "Aren't he a bit too late? The Wedding are three days from now" * Mrs. Stitchy start to mocking Verduny*
*smirk* "My apologies dear Sir Edward, we were already fully booked. Therefore we couldn't take the Duke invitations." *Mr. Sketchy add more arguments*
*smirk* "That's true, next time tell the Duke that you care so much about, to book us earlier."
*smile* "Could you proved me that your boutique were fully booked?" *Edward ask them calmly*
*mad* "What?! You don't believe me?"
Mr. Sketchy pick out a book on the table and show it to Edward
"What is that?" *curious*
*proud* "This are the list of our customers that already book us" *Mr. Sketchy show off the book*
*proud* "True" *Mrs. Stitchy agreeing him*
Edward smiling
*SWOOSH*
In the blink of eyes, that book was in Edward's hand
"Huh?"
The two tailors shocked and confused
*open the book* "Hmmm, Let's see. This are Mr. Cat, Mr. Mouse, Lady Bird, Mrs. House..."
"STOP!" *the two of them said it together*
Edward look at the two mad tailors and smiling
*glare at Edward* "What are you doing with our customers book list? Give it back!" *Mr. Sketchy ask Edward madly*
*confused* "What am I doing? I'm trying to remembering this names then looking for the related person later" *smirk*
The two tailors shocked
*bad feelings* "What will you do to them?" *anxious*
*smile* "You said that you were fully booked right? Then I should..."
"WAIT!" *Mr. Sketchy meddling Edward sentence*
"What it is?" *frown*
"We are available, we will go to the Amethyst Dukedom manor tomorrow" *Mr. Sketchy agreeing reluctantly*
"Yes, we can assured you that we'll come to the manor tomorrow. So could you give back that book?" *Mrs. Stitchy ask Edward hesitantly*
Edward smile sinister for a bit. The book glowing then flying and landed on the receptionist table.
*smile* "Then the Amethyst family will wait for you tomorrow morning in our manor" *salute*
"Yes, we'll be on time. Don't worry." *pale*
"Thank you, please excuse me!" *Edward smile then leave the boutique*
When Edward leave the boutique, both of the tailors were relieved.
In the Verduny tent
Edward come back to Verduny in the afternoon
*come in* "My Lord, I've finished the task you gave me"
*writing* "Good job, have a rest first" *writing*
"Yes"
Edward relax himself and made some tea for himself
*look at Edward* "That's remind me, Jared made a new potion that can gradually decreasing fatigue"
*burst*
Edward choke on his tea, Verduny stop his work and look at Vincent with disbelieved
"Jared are a craftsman, why on earth he made a potion? He's not an alchemist!" *Verduny look at Vincent with disbelieved*
*confused* "But it's true, my Lord. He really made a potions."
*abruptly* "Vincent! Did you drank the potion?" *worried*
Edward middling with anxious look. Look at Edward anxious, Vincent confused and get a bad feeling.
*hesitant* "Yes, I did"
Edward turn pales. Verduny look at Edward and start to get worried.
*worried* "What's going on? Did he made something crazy again?" *confused*
*anxious* "Are... Are you okay, Vincent?"
*confused* "Ye... Yeah"
Edward took a relieved breaths
*annoyed* "Edward, explain it to me! What's going on?" *irritated*
*look at Verduny* "My Lord, that potion were made from light flowers"
Verduny frozen meanwhile Vincent still confused
*confused* "What? What about light flowers? What's wrong with light flowers?" *uneasy*
*hopeless* "Vincent, light flowers were originally materials for explosive tools. It's not for consumables"
Vincent frozen, he drop the documents that on his hand. The tent get quiet for awhile.
*touch his own forehead* "Vincent..." *hopeless*
Verduny called Vincent worriedly.
*startled* "Yes!" *come to his sense* "Yes, my Lord?" *anxiously look at Verduny*
*look at Vincent* "Are you really fine? Nothing feel weird or something else?" *worried*
*astonished* "Yes, fortunately I'm fine" *relieved*
Verduny relieved heard that
*dark aura* "The craziness of that fools getting more worrying and outrageous. He almost killed my aide. How dare he made my aide as his guinea pig?! How should I make him suffer later?" *murderous aura*
*sigh* "My Lord, as long as nothing happened to Vincent. Isn't that fine?" *Edward trying to calm Verduny down*
*stare at Edward* "Edward, you knew about this, aren't you? Why you didn't told me about this?" *halt* *realize something* *serious* "Did you drank the potion too?" *look suspicious*
Edward flinching, Verduny aura get more darker.
*dark aura* "So, not only one. But both of my aides was his guinea pigs! Good, good! Good for you, Jared!" *menacing*
Edward glance to Vincent a few times to help him calming Verduny down. Vincent confused and blurt anything out.
*flustered* "My Lord you look handsome today, please calm yourself" *flustered*
Verduny and Edward frozen hearing what Vincent just said.
*pfft*
Edward trying to hold back his laugh, Verduny still stunned, Vincent come to his sense and get frozen.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
Edward can't hold back again and burst out of laughing.
*confused* *look at Vincent* "Huh? Why? Thank you." *indifferently*
Vincent get more frozen after Verduny thank him, Edward laugh more louder. But Vincent successfully calm Verduny down with the cost of losing his pride as a man. After awhile.
*cough* "Edward stop laughing, Vincent calm yourself"
"Yes, my Lord" *they said it together*
Edward answered with a giggle at the same time Vincent answered with weak and lethargically while picking up the documents that fallen down before.
*start to get serious* "Edward, the tailors will make Lydia dress and three attires for you, Vincent and me"
The two of them come to his sense and back to normal.
"Am I and Vincent coming too, my Lord?"
"Yeah, all nobles must attend on this party. This are the Crown Prince, the future Emperor wedding. Beside I want to formally introduce Vincent to other nobles as my Second Aide too. But I can't do that myself, at that time I'll be too busy. Edward, you'll be do that in my places instead." *look at Edward*
*sigh* "Of course, my Lord will be busy at that time. My Lord are busy provoking other nobles" *mocking*
Verduny smirking then continue his works, meanwhile Vincent look worried.
"Why are we provoking other nobles? Aren't that risky?"
"Don't worry, we just returning their kind treatments of us to them" *smile*
*confused* "Huh?" *feeling de ja vu*
*look at Vincent* "Vincent, don't you know that there are lots of bad rumor about our dear Lord in society?"
*flinch* "Yeah, there are a lots of them" *frown*
"Did you know where are this all bad rumor come from?" *smile*
*stunned* "I... I've never thought about that" *realized*
"All the rumor were from others nobles especially the Emperor, the Emperor himself were so eager to slander and blaming our dear Lord here" *mocking*
*shocked* "So the rumor about the bad relationship between the Emperor and our Lord are true?"
*smile* "Our Lord and the Emperor never had a harmonious relationship, but the Emperor were exaggerating the facts and made a bad rumor about our Lord."
*realize something* "Are we going to offend the Emperor too?" *anxious*
"Our Lord have been offending the Emperor since in the past, you know?" *bickering*
Vincent get too shocked and quiet for awhile.
"Aren't that a bad thing?" *worried*
*nodding* "Of course, it was really a bad things offending the Emperor, I was so worried myself before too. But unexpectedly, our Lord have controlled the situations from the very beginning. My worried was completely useless back then" *look at Verduny*
"What do you mean?" *curious*
*writing* "Edward, it's still early for him to know about the whole truths. Leave that thing for later" *writing*
Verduny reminding Edward
*smirk* *look at Vincent* "That's true, even I, the one that following you around for years were almost get hearth attacked because of the truths. If the current Vincent know about this, he's expect to gone crazy at the very least because of the shocked."
Vincent get goosebumps
*frightened* "I... I don't want to know about the truths" *look at Verduny and Edward*
*writing* "NO! You need to know about it. It will help you in the future. But the current you right now, weren't ready yet to know about this." *writing*
*smile friendly* "Don't worry, Vincent. You're not alone. Just brace yourself and get used to our Lord and your new surroundings, you'll gradually ready to know about the whole truth."
Vincent trying to calm himself
*sigh* "Alright, I'll try my best."
The three of them continue their works. After awhile
*remember something* "My Lord, you haven't inform the Madam yet" *Edward remind Verduny*
*stop writing* "That's right"
Verduny grab the communication device and calling Lydia
"My Lord?"
"I've booked the tailors, they'll come tomorrow morning. I'll come back tomorrow, but it seem I'll be a bit late. Could you entertain them first?"
"Yes, I'll make the preparations right away. Could I ask which tailors that you called, my Lord?"
*smile* "You'll meet them tomorrow. Why don't you ask them yourself?"
"Alright, I'll ask them myself."
"Then see you tomorrow, Lydia"
"Yes"
Verduny hung up and put the device back on the desk.
*writing* "Edward, come back tonight and prepare everything for tomorrow. I'll come with Vincent later" *writing*
"Yes, my Lord"
Edward salute to Verduny and continue his works.369Please respect copyright.PENANA0aqO67L6Te
