Third Person POV
Cintra, northern kingdoms.
...
...
Cirilla continued her way with her chin held high, heading towards Mousesack's laboratory. He was reading calmly at the mont, when he heard the door open and the princess, with her impatient manner, didn't even wait for him to enter the place.
"Princess Cirilla, what do I owe the pleasure of your visit at this ti? Have you finally set your mind on studies?" He asked with an amused smile, putting down the book with curiosity, since Cirilla never sought him out for academic matters, only asking about quite peculiar things.
"Can you wait outside...?" Cirilla turned back to her royal guard, who nodded and closed the door while Cirilla turned again to the druid and smiled in a mischievous manner.
"What is it...?" Mousesack had to squint at the girl.
"I have a guest in my room..." She began.
anwhile, Madara stayed in the room waiting for Cirilla. He couldn't help but notice the environnt was better than the last ti he was here, curious about how a dieval princess lived.
To start, the room was quite large, with dieval furniture that, however, seed to have a varnish finish. The place was much larger than that of the noble from whom he had stolen so clothes, and there was a spot just for a series of dresses, making Madara amused thinking about how that child fit in there, after all, those dresses would puff up anyone who wore them. At the end, there was a large bed in the corner with various fabrics making it quite colorful.
'Why am I surprised, I've heard that dieval nobles equated colors with beauty and status, though I always prefer sothing more discreet like black or at most a gray...' He thought, looking at the color show on the princess's bed. 'But surely she's much better off than I am, where my company are rats and spider webs...' He thought with so amusent about the place where he lived.
Another thing that interested him in the place was a piece of furniture with a small amount of books, seeming like the books the princess read and spent her ti with. However, it didn't seem like sothing a noble little girl would read, sothing about knights and charming princes, there were books with monster faces and so words he recognized, like types of weapons. Showing that the princess was fascinated by this kind of subject, sothing that didn't surprise him.
It didn't take long for the door to begin opening again, Madara, this ti, didn't hide, while remaining in the place with so books he had taken from that mont, after all, his presence was no longer a secret as soon as the druid would find out. Mousesack entered the room calmly with Cirilla while the guard stood at the door not knowing what the druid was doing there, and he looked at the boy standing there with interest next to the princess.
After he closed the door, he kept his gaze on Madara, "You know, I could imagine a lot of things when the princess ca to talk to , but I was quite surprised when she told she had a certain guest in her quarters. I could never have imagined that Madara was in the castle looking for ," said the Druid. He noticed that Madara and Cirilla were not strangers, which made him question what was happening here. "May I know how you and our princess ca to know each other...? That is a puzzle to this old man," he spoke.
"We t a few days ago," admitted Madara calmly.
Mousesack had to raise an eyebrow hearing this. "Could I know how you t? After all, I don't think you would et just anywhere. The princess has been in the castle for the last few days as far as I know."
"I t your princess at my house a few days ago. I had to bring her back to the castle," Madara spoke while looking at the princess's face, which quickly beca shy.
"Is that true...?" Mousesack also looked at Cirilla. "And you young lady, how did you end up at his house?" he asked, while Cirilla just gave a half-smile being caught in a mischief.
"I ran away and went to find him, but as you can see, I managed," she said, the shyness she had at the beginning being replaced by a tone as if she had done sothing great and impressive.
"It seems our princess is getting up to such things and no one knows." He sighed, after all, he was worried about the girl's safety. "But anyway, we will deal with that later. Now, what can I do for you, Madara?" He asked with a small smile at the boy.
"I've completed all the missions." He showed so bags that were stinking. "Here's the head of the ghoul and the Nekkers that I hunted and destroyed their nest. As for the bandits, I believe your guards have already reported what happened, right?" He spoke.
"True, we heard about a boy with red eyes defeating so bandits and rescuing hostages. It seems then you've completed all the missions quickly. I should congratulate you. I'll report your completed tasks and reward you with money. You can give the bags, I will be back soon," he said, not minding if he would leave Madara alone with the princess and left the room to speak with the queen.
Madara saw the druid leave and sighed, after all, he was sure this wouldn't end simply. anwhile, Cirilla looked at him with a sparkle in her eyes. "You killed all the monsters? Amazing. Can I do that too?" she asked, again not caring that it was the fourth ti she had asked since they t.
Madara just stayed silent, while looking out the window feeling the wind from that height. "Why don't you say anything?" she asked again and Madara did not respond. "This is so boring," she said in the end, pouting. But her gaze returned to the book Madara was carrying.
"Since you're here, I'm going to teach you to read and write," she declared. "In return, will you teach to be like you?" She insisted once again.
Madara, a bit tired of her questions about being like him, said, "I can't teach you to be like . I am different from you," He concluded.
She just crossed her arms and then said, "Then tell about your hunt, I want to know everything that happened." She demanded sothing else.
Madara ended up giving in, after all, he had nothing to lose and also had to wait for the druid to return.
"Alright," he spoke, and even keeping a neutral and arrogant voice, he talked about his hunt: the fight against the bandits and the ferocious Ghoul with so details, but not talking about things a child should not hear.
"Incredible, you saved a noble!" she said, so excited she was jumping as soon as Madara finished.
"It wasn't my intention, but I ended up finding them in danger fighting against what wanted to kill them." Madara responded, still near the window while leaning on it.
"Even so, it was amazing. You also fought against bandits and saved those hostages. But you haven't told the story of the last mission," she spoke, demanding again for more.
"There's not much to tell," he responded without looking at her. "It was basically setting fire and killing so noisy and insistent little monsters," he said honestly.
"So cool! Anyway, co here, I'm going to teach you to read, as I told you I would," she said, looking at him, Madara turned his gaze to her on the bed as she opened a book she had taken from the table and asked him to co closer and sit by her side. He ended up doing so, knowing that he needed to learn the language of this world sooner or later and on his own he was not having as much success as he wanted.
She opened a book and asked him to get comfortable with reading, which he ended up doing. She started to say the words she was reading, little by little, but Madara still found it very difficult to understand. Then, he activated his Sharingan to listen and read what Cirilla was saying, morizing everything he could.
"Hm?" Cirilla looked at him, to see if he was paying attention and saw his eyes red like that ti in the forest when they t, "Incredible! Your eyes changed color. Why did you do that?" She asked curiously.
"They help learn faster," he comnted.
"Is it like the witchers?" she asked.
"No, it cos from my lineage," Madara said.
"That sounds really cool. Everyone talks about my lineage too and how I was born with powers, but Mousesack's lessons are so boring. You know about it?" she asked, hoping it sounds incredible too.
"Yes..." Madara said. Madara knew she was a descendant of Lara Dorren. Her lineage carries great power that later she might be known as the Lady of Ti and Space. That could rule the entire continent with her power. However, according to his knowledge, she couldn't control her power properly and her journey would be of great dangers.
At this mont, Madara couldn't help but think about how her future or the world's, would change with his presence here, he could help her have a better life, at least not being pursued as she would be. Moreover, he had so strange connection with her. Even trying to avoid her at the beginning, now he was in her room after she found him.
Madara dropped his thoughts and returned to answering Cirilla again, "...But just a little," he said.
"Everyone says that I carry great power and that I must learn to control it," she said, "Could I travel the world too... without worrying about noble etiquettes and political marriages?" She asked not looking at him, but at the window, after all her wish was to be traveling, to be like Geralt and even Madara, to be free like a swallow.
"I'm sure you will achieve what you aspire to." he said in the end.
"Really? You think so?" She looked at him surprised,
while he had a calm face, knowing the future, at least what he couldn't change.
"Yes..." He said.
"Great, we could be a duo in the future and even invite Geralt too!" She exclaid.
Madara did not respond, as they went back to studying the words while he morized everything with his Sharingan. They spent so ti on this, while Madara began to learn, until the door opened again with Mousesack appearing.
"I see you two are getting comfortable," he said, smiling, looking at the two reading the book.
"Of course, I'm teaching him to read," she said, puffing out her chest.
"Well... Seems quite useful..." Mousesack looked at Madara while raising an eyebrow before continuing. "Anyway, I spoke with the queen, and she wants to et Madara." he announced, and Madara looked a bit surprised while Cirilla did the sa,
'This is unexpected... but finally, I'll et the lioness of Cintra...' He murmured internally. Then, they left the room, heading towards the throne room.
