In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

27 The Last Time With The Crown Prince

The Library fill with the voices of people around the room, the murmuring, the insinuation, all of them from the nobles. Of course, Anne and her friends are seating in the reserved seats, and the most shocking thing of all, the seats that reserve for the royalty.

Heirim’s face is something that you can describe as disgust and disbelief, she felt that her rights as a noble are diminishing when there are silver pass recipients in the room where only high nobles can gain access. For Heirim, her privilege as the high noble is everything.

“So, tell me, who’s the one that giving you the reserved seat?” Asked Heirim with a fake smile on her face.

The Librarian then walk in front of Anne, and defended her from Heirim, “My Lady, the missus, and the mister are truly gain the access to the reserved seat, as for the identity of the one that gave them the access, it will remain as a secret.”

“What? you can’t even tell me who’s the one that gave them the reserve seat? What kind of civil servants are you?!”

The noble lady Heirim is truly in rage, the foundation that she built during her childhood is crumbling in front of her eyes. She blames the girl with her unique purple hair, a peasant nonetheless.

“I am sorry my lady, but it’s per their request, there’s nothing I can do.”

“They?”

The librarian doesn’t budge, he just stands still in his place, while Anne calmly sat on her reserve seat. One of the nobles named Alastor patted Heirim’s back, “Heirim, that’s enough, just go back to your seat, we are trying to gain knowledge here, no need to make a scene,” He knows it is an oddity to see silver pass recipients at the reserve seat room, but as much as he hates it, he respected the seat number giver.

.....

“Alastor... But...”

Alastor whispered to Heirim, “Don’t tarnish your family’s name just because of some peasants who got to taste the reserved seat.”

Heirim’s glance at Anne and Anne feels her hot and blazing fury, she ignores her completely, and pretend to discuss something with David.

“Is she gone?” Whispered Anne at her friend.

“Yes, the b*tch already go back to her se... Oh, my bad, she took her bag and go out of the room.” Whispered David back at Anne, he become her eyes, looking at all of the nobles around.

Darla is hissing at Anne and David, “Just shut up you two, the coast is clear, now’s the time to study.”

The two of them go back to their study time, like everyone was saying, the Wismushroom do give them knowledge. Anne can feel her memory is improving significantly, she can memorize better, and seems almost fifty percent of the research material that she’s been read is locked inside her brain.

“Wow, no wonder scholar loves this Wismushroom, I could feel the improvement already, and we were here for like, two hours?” Whsipered David at Anne and Darla.

Anne giggled when she saw a glimpse of happiness on David’s face, he was so happy about having to use the Wismushroom, even more than Darla and herself. Not long after however, she feels a slight discomfort coming from her head. she excuses herself to go to a restroom.

She asked the librarian, about the way to a restroom.

“Oh, you can go to our rest area for the reserved seat, it’s located on the same floor, you can’t miss it.” Said the librarian to Anne, he saw her face and begin to be concerned, “Miss, are you alright?”

“Yes, just feel light-headed, that’s all.”

“Should I accompany you to the rest area?”

She doesn’t want to be a bother and politely refused his offer. Anne walks into the hallway, there are a few people around since the level is used for reserved seats only. Her head begins to pound, and her sight is blurry, she leans on the wall and decides to go downstairs where she remembers the restroom location.

Step by step, Anne carefully descended to the lower floor, but right in the middle of the stairs, she feel hazy and the world around her is spinning, she fainted, just in time for a man catches her before she fall down the stairs. Another man came from behind.

“Your majesty, do you need our help?”

Justice turns his head and smiled, “There’s no need Bernard, but could you help me fetch the healer instead.”

“But I couldn’t leave you alone here.”

Justice just gave him a sigh and begin to walk carefully to the upper-level room, “Just bring me the f*cking healer! I could handle scholars and bookworms if they decide to assassinate me!”

Bernard scratches his head, other guards just shrug at him.

“What can you do captain, should we run the errand for you?”

Bernard glared at his subordinate, “Just wait and guard the entrance, I’ll be back soon!”

Meanwhile, Justice carries Anne to the rest area, there’s a day bed inside one of the small rooms, and the nobles use it to take a nap in the library, Justice put the occupied sign and carefully put Anne in the day bed. He brushes her hair from her face and stares at her for a while.

“Why are you keep on appearing in my dream? Is it because you have met her?” Or is it because of my infatuation with you? Said the inner thoughts of the crown prince.

Five minutes later, Anne open her eyes, she look so confused while her head turned around the room. that’s when her eyes look into a man with flaming hair, standing on the window with his folded arms on his chest, his red ruby eyes intensely looking at Anne.

“Justice?”

Justice took a step to her side, and without any hesitation, his palm goes to Anne’s forehead.

“Hey, how are you feeling? Hmm... I don’t think you have a fever.”

Anne flustered by his sudden touch, she then pulls her head away from Justice’s hand. A slight smirk came into his face, even though Anne doesn’t aware of it.

“I’m fine... Don’t you worry.”

“A healer will be here at any minute, just take a rest.”

“I don’t need a healer, and all I need is to eat some food, not to take a rest.”

Justice is frowning at her, “I know you don’t want to hurt your pride, as you’re already a healer without a license, but at least try to be considerate?”

“Ugh, it’s not because I refuse treatment, it’s because I know what’s happening to me.” Anne rolled her eyes at Justice’s stubbornness.

“And what is that?”

“I have gastritis, I don’t eat any breakfast, that’s why.”

“So... you’re just feeling peckish? Is that why you were passed out earlier?”

“Yes! Now, would you please ask the healer away, I’m going to eat some food and I’ll be better already.” Said Anne a bit frustrated.

Justice mumbling incoherent words while he steps into the door, Bernard was already outside the door with a healer ready to get into the room.

“We don’t need a healer, just buy me some food from the nearest restaurant.” Said Justice to Bernard and then he closed the door once more, ignoring their confused face.

Anne is ready to walk outside, when he saw what she was going to do, he lifted her body and carry her to the bed.

“What are you doing?!” She tried to pry herself from Justice’s strong arms.

“Just wait here, someone will bring you some food.”

She could see how determined he is to confine her in the bed, all she could do is glare at him and say, “Ugh, fine! I’ll wait here. Happy?”

“Ecstatic.” Muttered Justice with gritted teeth.

Neither of them talks for a while, Anne is looking so angry and also hungry at the moment, while Justice ignores her and begins to read a pocket book. She took a glance at him, and somehow remember their last time together at Viora village, the moment that casually become her nightmare once in a while.

“Justice, could I ask you some questions?”

Justice replied at her request without pulling his eyes away from the pocketbook, “Yes, how can I help you?”

“The last time... you know the last time we have met,” She look warily at Justice, while the crown prince pretended to be infested with his pocketbook, “You know, the forest... Do you remember about the beautiful lady that we met, at the forest?”

Justice’s eyes shifted, he put the pocketbook down and stare at Anne. “You remember everything?”
