The returning guard said as behind him, a tall man dressed in black robes and with long dark violet hair that fades into Amber . He looked at me for a moment before lazily walked besides the desk I was currently sitting at. He then took out the communication orb and placed it in front of me as he decided to summon a comfy chair for him to sit while listening to me.

" Still, my lady. How did you know this? "

Fabian still insist on knowing why I knew such information, I sighed and pointed at Michael who is currently sleeping like at cat, his head is on the table as his body slumped. He seemed to sense my fingers and looked at it before going back to sleep. As if inspecting if my hands are there to attack him.

" He's here. Now that he's here, he can verify if I'm lying or not. He can also conduct a test to see if I'm the real Lady of the house. He can also use my blood. "

I explained as Michael looked at me in a way that looked like I gave him a lifetime worth of work, but I still insist on proving my innocence. Michael clearly sighed before another device came out of his robes, " Stick your finger there. It makes an identity card. I made it myself and it can't be forged. " He explained as I didn't wait for him to finish and pricked my pointer finger.

" My Lady! "

I heard Veronica exclaimed as she placed her hands towards her mouth, she looked like she saw a ghost. Fabian was also quite shaken as he stopped pacing back and forth earlier, Michael shrugged and still looked indifferent. Unexpectedly, I punctured my finger a bit deep that blood continued to flow even though the process is finished.

Michael sighed and removed my finger and healed it in no time, he then lazily picked the card before showing it to Fabian.

" So it really is my lady. Who would have believe that it is you. Forgive me for being so rude. "

Fabian said as he bowed and apologize, I shaked my head, " Michael, connect this to the Information tent of our forces. " I ordered as Michael pouted and huffed and stomped a bit before following my orders, He looks cute and silly as a frame of hair covered his eyes, It's not cut in order to stabilize his abilities.

" Thank you Michael. " I said as I ordered snacks for everyone to be delivered. " Everyone, We must work harder and faster. We wouldn't want our forces to lose right? " I asked as the officers looked at me and saluted. I began to nod my head and thank them for their cooperation.

After a while, " Our forces must be quick but not loud as to not direct and alarm the enemy of our movements, we will fight them by using a pincer- " My words were cut off as a man fell down in front of me, I sighed. Just how many times have I let out a breath? And it's only just half a day in this body!

" Who are you? " The guards immediately unsheathed their swords and pointed at this man's neck, " Don't let him escape. He was about to leak information to the west of the garden. " I explained, " How- Nevermind. It seems like something troublesome has came knocking down my door. " Fabian ranted as he ordered the guards to place the traitor in the dungeon.

After the spy was sent to the dungeon the communication orb began to glow, I looked at it and sat down, The orb then shown the face of a stern man. His golden brown hair and his slightly tan skin, He has a scar on his left eye and he wore the uniform of the Lieutenant commander. He huffed a breath as I was the first one he saw when the orb began to transmit.

" Greeting's to her Lady, Lady Annizabel. " 

He said with eyes of displeasure, I felt a sudden need to strangle someone. Just how much discourtesy will they show to me and her, " Good Afternoon Lieutenant Commander Andrew Valerian, I believe you know the reason why I called? " I said as he noticebly went quiet and presented himself again as the Lieutenant Commander.

" Lady Annizabel, Firstly, how did you know this information? "

I placed a hand on my head for support as endless replies of people came barging on the other line, 

" How would a person who locks herself in a room know this! This may have been an imposter! "

" The urgent message we recieve earlier is likely to be a trap. "

" And why would the Lady be inside the main office! Did you really pick the time to kidnap and replace the princess while we were in war! "

Countless uproars and accusations came by, I was already geting tired as this generals spat utter nonsense and doubt me. But they weren't wrong that the one in front of them is not the real lady of this house, I pat Michael in the head and gestured him to show himself as well as Fabian, " Michael and Fabian are also here, Michael already proved of my identity earlier. If you need proof, Michael will show you the Indentity card right now. " I said as Michael showed the card to the orb while his head is still laying on the desk.

" As you all know, Identity cards can't be forge by ordinary means, And if you all doubt that I'm still not the Lady, then I won't force you to. But I need you all to act before we have many casualties in the battalion ok? " I replied with a bit of pressure. The Lieutenant didn't say anything and just continued to listen, " Outragious! Why would we listen to you?! " One impatient General suddenly shouted.

His comment made me smile, " Why would you listen? I'm Annizabel Florence Frostine. The only daughter of the Duke and Supreme Commander you all currently serve under, please don't make me use my Authority as a Member of the Frostine Family. " I put pressure on every word I said up to the very end. After that, no one dared to speak nor make any signs of noises.

" I'm impressed that you made them shut up in just a few words. To be honest, I'm getting tired of their complaints everytime we held a meeting. " Lieutenant Valerian said in a pleased tone as a sudden shadowed figure emerge behind him, " Sir! We have scouted the enemy forces and there are indeed 10 mages currently in their numbers. " He reported, ' Hmm...So this is one of the member of the intelligence group who serves the Duke. '

I thought as he reported everything and confirmed that my words are true.

" Observe the smallest tent when they set up camp as they would all began the sacrificial ritual before dawn. " I said which caught the attention of the scout, " Yes, If its the smallest then we would have pay it no mind because most of it is used for storage. While the large tents are used by the commander or used as meeting rooms. " Lieutenant Valerian confirmed what I said as he let the scout leave.

As soon as the scout left, a sudden shout erupted beside me as another body fell down, " Fabian? Just how many spies are there in the house? " I asked and Fabian told the guards to restrain another spy, " He's the 6th one. " He answered as I gave him a vegetarian sandwich and gave Michael a chocolate cake, As I bit on a piece of madeline biscuit in my hand.

" Lieutenant, Please tell the Duke that by the time He comes back. There would be at least 10 spies waiting for him in the dungeon. " I informed him as he nodded. I turned to Fabian, " Can you please explain to them the strategy we came up with earlier? They trust you more than I, So I think they would be more willing to listen to you. " I said as I stood up and grabbed the account book from Veronica, " Yes, My lady. " He answered and proceed to sit down and talk to the Lieutenant, as I skimmed through the account book and came face to face with endless numbers of embezzeled funds. It seems like they disguise it as if buying products, but the prices are over 3x times the selling price.

" My lady, What should we do first asked the Lieutenant. "

I looked at Fabian and the orb with the Lieutenants face, both their eyes looking directly at me. " We first should eliminate the mages as quick as possible. But do it silently as possible. After that, 10,000 men will charge up front, while the remaining 10,000 will split into 5,000 and block any paths of escape on both sides of the battlefield. " I said and show Fabian the exact amount of embezzeled funds I've written while explaining.

The numbers shocked Fabian, " How!..Just how much! This much is! " He can't find the exact words as he himself checked the account book, " My Lady, I assure you that we will resume with this after this war is over. " He said. I nodded, " What's happening over there? " Lieutenant asked us as we forgot that someone else was listening, 

" Embezzelement Funds. " I said, " My Lady's funds to be precise. " When Fabian explained more clearly, there was a sudden sound of something breaking in front of Lieutenant Valerian, He chuckled nerviously as the other Generals froze. " My lady, we will continue later. " He said and cut off the line, " Well, That's quite concerning. " I said as Michael grumbled at the sight of an empty plate.

" I'll give you another one if you help them to move quietly. " I said as he looked at me for a bit before slowly nodding, I smiled and pat his head. " Veronica, can you please bring 2 slices of chocolate cake? " I ordered. She bowed, " Certainly, my lady. " and left.

" We just have to wait for confirmation from the Supreme Commander Himself. " I said as both Fabian and Michael nodded. " And if Michael agree's, then he will have chocolate cakes Everytime he helps me." I said and crossed my arms, waiting for his response.

He looked at me and tilted his head, " You promise? " ' Ahh! My favorite character! My dear Michael!! ' i thought as I nodded. " If you promise to help me too. " He nodded excitedly and left, probably to go to the base. Thank goodness, I finally met my favorite Character We both write when I was still in college. The Genius Magician, Michael Elian. He's a genius rivalling the Great Mage of the Empire, but I don't care for him, I only care about our Michael.

I'm sure him and Lucian would get along well if he's here, ha...I missed him already. My sole knight.
