Chapter 409 - Alice -part one-

If was a pretty normal day in Levier town. Although it was a border town, unlike Leitol, there was a pretty good amount of people in this town.

If Greycastle people had one thing to be proud of, without a doubt would be Levier town, in their eyes, it was a fortress that prevented the enemy to enter, of course, the same could be said about Border Town in Leitol.

There were two powerful houses in Levier, The Vladiers and The Harmons, both families had been in a struggle for the town as far as the history of the town went. However, there was a rumor in the town.

It seems that, finally, this war could end.

"Or so people are saying…" Said a girl while eating a small piece of bread.

"Bullshit" Said the man before her with a bitter note.

In the center of the town, two young people were having an interesting talk about this, both didn't seem to be in their early twenties.

"Brother" Said the young woman.

She had green hair and eyes, she was tall and wore a small white blouse and a long skirt.

"Don't say it… why do I have to marry that gorilla…." Said the young man.

The young man also had green hair and eyes, he wore a black shirt and black pants.

"It can't be helped bro, is orders from above…" Said the sister with a playful smile.

"You are happy because you escape marrying that ugly guy… what was his name again…. Hu… hum…"

"Humberto Harmons" 

"Yes, yes, Humberto Harmons"

"Hey, you are doing a great favor to your little sister~, thanks again bro~"

"Hmph! The woman of I, Ezequiel Vladier shall be picked by me and me alone! Nobody can force me, especially not to that gorilla, Radiel Harmons!"

"Oh~ come on~ you two always played together when you were children~"

"And that's precisely why, I don't see her as anything more than being the older sister, and don't say things like that so freely! What if people know that a Vladier and Harmons are friends" Said Ezequiel.

"I don't know why are you so stubborn, she is so beautiful and had so many men behind her, what the hell is wrong with you!" Said the little sister.

"What's more" 

The little sister made a bit of pervert movement around her c.h.e.s.t.

"She has such pair of huge knockers~"

"You… Where did you learn to talk like that…"

"Dad"

"That dirty old man…" Said Ezequiel with a bitter smile.

"Seriously brother! If I was a man, I would have 'seal' the deal a long time ago… wait, don't tell me… " The little sister made a surprised expression.

Her hands trembled a bit while she, in horror, signaled her brother.

"You like the D- ugh!"

"Keep going and I will hit you harder!" Said Ezequiel after hitting the top of her sister's head.

Ezequiel sighed and looked at the distance.

"I like women, however, I like women who are refined, elegant… preferable a bit shorter than me, I don't actually like women with a large c.h.e.s.t, ah… and she had to have white skin, as white as the snow, a real princess"

"Huh? Where did you get that image from?"

"You know what they said… for tastes and colors…" 

"But your tastes are to…unique" 

"Whatever!" Said Ezequiel.

"Do I not have any other choice…" he said with sadness.

The little sister looked at her brother and she sighed as well, she knew how cruel the world of nobles could be.

"Cheer up bro, sis Radiel is a good girl, although she isn't your type, you two know each other very well, you will be happy" Console the little sister.

"I guess" Said Ezequiel.

"What's more, where are you going to find a woman like-" 

Suddenly, the little sister froze.

"Br-r-r-r-o"

"What?"

"Bro"

"What is it?"

"BRO!!!"

"WHAT!?"

"Look! There, there!" Shouted the little sister.

Ezequiel turned to the direction that his little sister was signaling.

In an instant, Ezequiel froze.

Just a few meters away from there, a young girl was walking with a handsome young man dressed in white.

The young woman was beautiful, she had long black hair and her eye was green, she had skin as white as the snow and beautiful red lips.

She was wearing a red dress, it wasn't that formal, however, it had this aura of elegance that was difficult to describe.

It wasn't raining, but the young man was holding an umbrella for the young lady.

She wasn't smiling, she had this kind of neutral face on her, making her look a bit unreachable. Like the sole flower on a garden.

It wasn't only the little sister, other people also notice this young girl, many stood in daze while looking at the beautifulness of this lady.

Ezequiel couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"I found you…" He murmured.

He ran towards the lady.

"Ah! Brother!" The little sister ran after her brother.

"Please, please stop!" Shouted Ezequiel.

The lady and her bodyguard stopped, at seeing Ezequiel, the young man put a cold face and stood in front of the young lady. Ezequiel stopped after seeing the intimidating aura of the bodyguard.

"This guy is not an amateur" Though Ezequiel.

"Do you need something?" Asked the young guard.

"I..."  Ezequiel froze.

He had run all the way towards here without thinking, but now that he was here, he wasn't sure how to proceed.

"I am sorry for my brother!" 

The little sister got to the place and bowed towards the young man and young lady.

"My name is Katherine, Katherine Vlads, this is my brother Ezequiel" Said Katherine.

"…" The young man bowed but didn't answer towards Katherine.

"I, I am Ezequiel" Said Ezequiel towards the young lady.

"I… I was wondering if you could tell me your name"

The young lady looked at Ezequiel but didn't answer.

"And who do you think you are to know my young lady's name?" Said the guard.

"You… you dare-"

"Wait, Katherine" Said Ezequiel.

Ezequiel breathed and kneeled towards the young lady.

"You are the most beautiful girl I have seen in my life, may I have the honor of knowing your name?" Said Ezequiel.

"Pff"

"Hmm?" Ezequiel and Katherine heard a bit of weird sound coming from the young man, however, when they looked again, the young man still had that cold face on him.

The young lady was still looking at Ezequiel.

Ezequiel notice that the young lady had a patch on her eye, contrasting a lot with her refined look, however, to Ezequiel this didn't make her less beautiful, on the contrary, she gained an aura of m.a.t.u.r.eness that was hard to find in people of their age.

"Please" Repeated Ezequiel.

The young lady sighed, she smiled bitterly and open her mouth.

"My name is Alice" Said the young lady in a sweet tone.
