Vexana stood up from her throne of black glass. She smiled faintly at the crown princess who desired to know the current location of the blood demon Queen. "Alice went to Eruditio, the City of Scholars. You can go there or wait for her here." Vexana finally told Fasha-or Pharsha where Alice went. Walking down the stairs that is embedded to her throne to reach the marbled ground floor. "I do not want to engage in the war. So I'll just stay here and wait patiently for her arrival." Pharsha spoke coldly.
Vexana noticing that her personality is quite similar to the Queen of Nost Gal, Aurora. "If you wish. Meanwhile, I have something to do." Vexana walked over to her still upset marksman. He is currently getting feelings that something bad will happen to him if he doesn't find an excuse to dismiss himself immediately. "I've been letting all your betrayals through. I feel like if I don't punish you. All of my plans will be ruined by your hands." She smiled that didn't look sincere. It looked like she was planning a scheme in that brain of hers. "What? Are you gonna take away my spears and lock it somewhere so I can't use it for a year instead of a month? I can still get them. That punishment of yours that you gave me before was terrible," Moskov scoffed. Bitterness in his words as he crossed his arms, continuing to ignore her.
"I gave you a light one. But now I've decided to give you a more kind of ruthless punishment." Vexana's smile turned into a mischievous grin. She is indeed planning something for him and he did not want to know what it is. Moskov allowed himself to cough and took a step back. "I think Alice told me to arrive at the City of Scholars to help her with something." He lied without directly looking at her in the eyes. An obvious lie, anyone could see right through it.
Moskov quite panicked and wasn't fast enough to think of a suitable excuse for himself to get away. So it ended up as a failure. "Oh, are you afraid already? But I haven't even told you what it is yet." She snickered. Placing one of her thin arms around his shoulder as her grin became playful. Moskov slightly shivered, a disgusted expression on his face as he asked: "What do you think you're doing?"
"Getting closer to you." She answered rather sweetly that it sickened him. "Don't do that kind of stuff, you damn wannabe Queen." He shoved her arm off his shoulder. Receiving a disappointed slightly pouted expression on the Queen of Doom's face. "Aw, you're no fun. At least your punishment is to go on a date with me." After saying that. Moskov immediately choked and let out a laugh. "You're joking, right? Were you so afraid of being single forever that you decided to go on a date with me? So desperate. I can understand why nobody would ever want to date you." This marksman is too bitter and salty for his own good. He is so hard to be allies with that the first thing that he'll probably do to a new confederate is to roast and salty them until they're a medium rare steak. "I'm being serious, Moskov. And I'm not desperate, I just want to be in good terms with you." Vexana spoke honestly. Receiving another laugh from the marksman that sounded very sarcastic. "After making my hands kill m'lady you think we'll be in good terms after a date? You're either dreaming or just merely stupid." Another set of bitter words came out of that mouth of his. It was starting to piss of Vexana, but she is able to keep herself calm and cool quickly. "You can't stay mad at me forever. This punishment is better than giving you a thousand whip on the back. I can't imagine you surviving considering your body's starving appearance." Vexana acted like she was pitying him when in Moskov's eyes she is merely just a dog following his tail.
"I can't believe you've survive this far with that brain of yours. A starving looking being like me c-" Vexana quickly grabbed one of his hand and pulled him outside the throne room before he could complete another bitter sentence.
"What a peculiar pair." Pharsha commented as she watched the two unlikely-to-get-married beings disappear. "I agree on that. Queen Vexana doesn't look all powerful compared to the strongest beings that I've fought in my entire lifetime. She simply just look like another weak villainess in my list." Zhask spoke.
"Well, looks can be deceiving. You shouldn't judge until you've seen what she is truly capable of." Pharsha replied before transforming into a bird. Flapping her heavenly light colored wings quickly as she flew away towards somewhere. Leaving the King of the Kastiyans alone in the throne room.
Saber immediately grabbed both of Fanny's wrists. His grip on her so tight that it caused her to bite her lips in order to withstand the pain. "I told you to rest in my room. Not go to your petty friend for a chit chat." The cyborg spoke icily.
"I obeyed you and took my rest. You did not tell me to stay there and wait for you." She replied sharply without any regrets. Pulling both of her hands out of his harsh grip. He admired Fanny for being quite quick-witted and for having a sharp tongue. Her action nearly made him faintly smile. "Clever girl." He extended one of his hands towards her. About to pat her gently on the head as a praise until she suddenly slapped his hand to prevent him. It felt like a stung of a bee to Saber, but his expression remained the same. "I don't like being praised by you." Fanny spoke coldly.
"I recalled clearly that I told you to not get close to Alucard. You just keep disobeying me again and again. I'm not letting you go without your punishment." He grabbed one of her wrists again. Pulling her close to him. Leading her towards somewhere. Luckily not in the direction where his bedroom is. Where was he taking her? Fanny hoped that it wasn't in the dungeons or something like that.
He led her to the front doors of a laboratory. Saber personally requested Vexana before to install him his own laboratory. Unfortunately, the Queen of Doom denied his request since she has already installed a large laboratory and so there is no more space to build another one. She did give him half the space of this large laboratory.
Saber doesn't have much information about the person who owns the other half. All he knows that the person is a man around his forties who left his daughter. "This is not a dungeon, right?" Fanny grumbled. Her eyes glancing at the two doors before her. Quite nervous to find out the room just in the other side of these doors. "No, I'm not going to punish you that way. I am a sadistic but you're not a masochist, so it won't be fun," His answer quite startled Fanny. Making her take a few steps back only to get pulled close against him. "I was kidding. Don't think much about it." He assured her which is not assuring at all. It only made her even terrified. "Your jokes aren't funny at all." She looked away from him. Attempting for the fourth time to pull out her hand that he was gripping. She failed yet again for his strength is higher than hers. Fanny found it quite unfair.
Saber walked over to the two doors. Pulling Fanny with him. He pushed one of the doors with his free hand and walked inside. Fanny let herself gulp as she followed him inside. Seeing that this room is just a laboratory made her sigh in relief. "Now, take off your armor and your grappling devices." The cyborg instructed. Getting a scowl from the female assassin before she took off her grappling devices. Only leaving her armor on. "Bring me some ordinary clothes to wear first and get out." She ordered as if she was the one dominating and in command. Saber let out a chuckle out of his lips. He can't decide if he should call her stupid or give her an applause for her bravery to suddenly give him an order. "Don't have any clothes underneath that armor that I made for you?" Saber questioned, getting a scoff from the female assassin as she crossed her arms. "Forgive me for destroying that sailor outfit. The mini skirt was too short and the shirt exposed my stomach. Overall that outfit that you bought shows too much of my skin." She sounded so sarcastic at the beginning of her sentences, but slowly became bitter as she reached the end of her words.
The cyborg shrugged before replying: "I don't know how you ladies casually dress up. I've seen Lolita's outfit countless times. But I don't think that kind of fashion suits you."
"So you thought that the sailor outfit that you bought suited me? You have a bad taste." Fanny grumbled angrily. Looking away from the swordsman as he went over somewhere to grab something.
Shockingly it were the old clothes that she used to wear. Fanny's eyes widened upon seeing it, her jaw slightly dropping. Receiving a weird feeling at the fact that Saber possessed her old clothes and kept it here. She thought that he had thrown it away somewhere or burnt it into ashes. But he just stored it here all these time. "I thought you destroyed it a long time ago." She said. Walking over to Saber to grab her clothes. He quickly lifted his hand up that is holding her clothes so she couldn't reach it even if she jumped. Unfairly, he is taller than her. Fanny glanced at him annoyingly. "You're not going to give it back?"
"Only if you say thank you. I'll give it back to you." Saber replied. Still keeping her clothes high up as he watched her jump as an attempt to grab it. She looked quite silly and adorable that it made Saber faintly smile at the female assassin.
Fanny eventually gave up. Seeing that it is pointless in trying to get it. "Thank you..." She finally said those words to him. A slight tone of red appearing on her pinkish cheeks. Making it look redder. Saber's faint smile became obvious and sincere after seeing her look quite embarrassed.
He finally extended the clothes towards her. Fanny quickly grabbed it and gestured him to get out of the room. But Saber just shook his head. "I'm not leaving. You'll probably make an escape. Also, I don't understand you. You're okay exposing your cleavage but not okay exposing your stomach?" He received a growl from her while her cheeks turned red even more. "We're not going to talk about that. And I won't escape. There's only one exit in this laboratory." She replied grimly. Trying to push him towards to the entrance of the laboratory. Since he didn't move an inch, Fanny gave up for not wanting to use effort in getting him out. "I've seen your naked body while I was constructing your damn arms and armor. Don't worry, you're too fat to have a seducing and curvy body. In other words you don't have a sex appeal. Also, I know you can escape this room somehow." He coldly said his harsh words. Making Fanny silently fume in anger. "I'm not fat. I don't even care if I don't have a sex appeal! Now get out and let me get dressed!" She yelled loudly in rage. Glancing at the swordsman bitterly.
Saber let out a sigh out of his lips and walked out of the room to allow Fanny to take her armor off and get dressed.
He waited patiently as he stood against the door. Listening closely for any signs of an escape. Luckily there weren't any signs. Fanny finally got herself dressed and knocked on the door to signal Saber that she's done. "Come in." She grumbled. Clearly still mad and upset at him. Saber grabbed one of the doors' handle and twisted it. Pushing it forward and walked inside. He closed the door after entering. The last time he saw Fanny wearing her old clothes was the time that she was covered in her own blood. She looked so pitiful. "I hate repeating myself so remember this clearly. Don't forget that you cannot use your armor and grapple devices for three weeks unless necessary or when we are training. That's your punishment. Using it to get to Al-"
"Yes, I get it. I can only use it during emergencies and in training sessions. I'm not allowed to use it for useless reasons." Fanny interrupted him. Her eyes avoiding contact with his. She casually sat down on an iron bed. Lifting both of her hands towards her hair. Tying it into a ponytail. "I can allow you to talk to Alucard, if..." He strangely stopped his sentence. Immediately catching Fanny's attention and interest. "If what? Tell me." Saber looked at her eyes and saw nothing but eagerness. He allowed himself to smile and walk over to her. Taking off his helmet in the process.
This was the first time Fanny has seen his full face. Damn, he looked close to perfection. The features and edges of his face looked sharp like a blade. His lips slightly pink as always and his eyes. Those eyes that he hid for so long are so gorgeous. A magnificent bright shade of blue that looked like the ocean and the sky. It instantly allured her and caught her breath.
Before Fanny could turn her head to look at something and not stare at his face. She was suddenly pinned against the iron bed.
"If you don't disobey me. I'll allow you to talk to Alucard." He finished his sentence from earlier. His hot breath brushing against Fanny's neck as he leaned in closer. Her mind started to panic instead of going blank. Even looking far away to avoid eye contact didn't make her any calm. She hasn't even noticed that her cheeks has completely turned red.
Saber lifted one of his hands towards her face to gently tip her chin. Making her face him. Once Fanny directly faced him. Her heart instantly fawned over him. "Do we have an agreement?" He asked. The corners of his lips lifting up to create a playful smirk.
"When you're pinning me like this. I can't think straight." She mumbled. Using all of her strength to push him off her. It didn't work, he didn't even budge. He's still stronger than her. This guy sincerely pisses me off, Fanny thought silently.
Saber pulled himself away from her. Satisfied to see her reddish face. He pinned her before and he couldn't get her to blush. But now managed to do it. Was it because he took off his helmet? He couldn't quite understand her. She's quite complicated to understand for him. "Do you feel that kind of feeling? That feeling of your heart having an abnormal speed? It goes so fast. I don't understand it." Saber asked a question that Fanny has never imagined him asking to someone. She sat up on the iron bed and looked at him in the eyes. Her cheeks no longer in the state of being purely red. "You're in love." She answered. Not wanting to add with me to her sentence. It felt so awkward saying that considering she loves someone else. She still has feelings for Alucard and no matter how angry she is at him. She couldn't get rid of them. And now somebody else loves her. A guy that's an asshole and likes to mess her emotions up. She couldn't understand how Saber fell in love with her. And she couldn't understand why her heart is being taken by him. "Do you feel the same way?" Saber asked her again. Eager and curious. It was rare for him to be this way. Fanny wanted to face away again, but she couldn't. Her eyes are fixed on his. Those captivating eyes that looked like the bright and massive ocean. If she were to dive in. Would she get herself lost? It looked like an abyss. An ocean without an end.
She allowed herself to bite her lips. Her expressions changing into a nervous one. "I...I don't know." That was all she could say. Enough to pierce through Saber's heart like a sharp blade of a sword. But he managed to remain expressionless. Using his strength to keep the emotional pain at bay. "Don't look so nervous," Saber said, accepting her answer. He extended one of his hands towards her cheeks to cup it. His thumb gently caressing her skin. "You're mine, aren't you?"
