The chook tapped the fruit with the tip of its beak, however didn’t chew.

“Fairly . . .”

Rieta stared blankly on the chook concentrating on the fruit.

The chook was stunning.

Blue feathers resembling the ocean, in addition to a barely curved yellow beak.

It appeared like a good friend of a sublime girl.

Then BB calmly coated Rieta’s eyes with the palm of his hand.

“Don’t take a look at it too blindly. Princess.”

“Why?”

It’s not even a portrait with transferring eyes, so was there any purpose not to take a look at it?

“As a result of it’ll fall for you.”

“. . . ?”

“That silly chook.”

“Silly chook?”

“Sure, it nonetheless likes folks.”

BB sat on the statue of the angel.

He was somewhat disrespectful, however Rieta was interested by the remainder of the story, so she determined to not level out his eccentric conduct.

“It got here all this fashion as a result of it was captured by others. Even so, it nonetheless likes folks and desires to offer them affection.”

“That chook can’t . . . give folks affection?”

“Princess.”

BB pointed his finger on the ceiling. A really tight ceiling.

“That chook has been right here for seven years.”

Rieta made an ‘ah’ sound. It was virtually a sigh.

That was why.

It was a really unhappy factor for a chook that couldn’t go wherever to offer anybody affection.

It couldn’t do something besides cry in longing.

“Then for seven years . . . it’s stayed right here?”

“Yeah.”

“At first, they opened the cage like this and allowed it to fly freely inside. Wizards are additionally human, in order that they will need to have pitied this factor.”

“Now?”

“Do you need to see?”

BB pulled the cage door open.

There was not even the slightest lock, so if the chook wished it may have opened it with a flick of its beak.

Clack.

The chook seemed there for a second on the sound of the cage opening, however quickly targeted once more on pecking the fruit.

It doesn’t appear to care a lot about getting out of the cage.

“. . . It’s not popping out.”

“As a result of it is aware of that each one it might probably see is an enormous cage. It could open the cage door simply, but it surely gained’t.”

She listened to him and seemed up once more. The ceiling actually did appear like a cage.

Much more so due to its spherical form.

BB didn’t even shut the cage and slipped by the statues.

Rieta and Noel additionally adopted him.

Behind them, the little chook started to peck on the fruit. It seemed prefer it was able to eat now.

They continued speaking with out the chook in sight.

“It could be good if somebody raised it.”

Listening to Rieta muttering regretfully, BB requested “Who?”

“Ah, somebody who likes birds . . .”

Rieta muttered this at first, however she quickly realized that it was nonsense.

It was a courtesy present from one other nation.

So the Emperor will need to have determined that it might be good for this chook to outlive for so long as potential.

Safely with out getting sick or injured.

On this house filled with preservation magic, it was potential to ‘maintain’ a chook like that.

In addition to, it was positioned with the issues the Emperor cherished, so it wasn’t that it was handled inappropriately.

Rieta recalled the Emperor’s ideas about her residence at some point.

Anyway, Rieta was additionally a present from Liz.

Serious about it that means . . . it was unusual.

“Anyway, I’ve completed my enterprise, so I’m heading out.”

He shrugged his shoulders. “I simply got here to offer it some fruit on my means dwelling from work.”

“You’re form, BB.”

“Oh, how candy. Why are the Princess’ phrases so scrumptious?”

He made a hissing sound and checked the time for a second.

“Oh, actually harmful.”

“Harmful?”

Rieta requested in response to BB’s incomprehensible phrases.

Then, BB smiled.

“The time has come for the surveillance magic to activate. It triggers as soon as each twenty minutes.”

Ah. With these phrases, Rieta and Noel opened their mouths.

The surveillance magic completely memorized the shapes of all of the reveals that existed right here.

So, if there’s something that has modified even somewhat bit, the magicians will probably be notified of the abnormality.

Rieta and Noel’s existence was identified to the wizards, however since they went in with permission prematurely, there was no explicit drawback.

“Princess, I’m sorry, however may you shut the cage door?”

“Do I’ve to shut it? I imply, it’s not going to return out anyway.”

“Effectively, the surveillance magic remembers the cage door being closed.”

He mentioned about how he had been practically captured by wizards whereas leaving the cage open.

“As a result of it’s forbidden to feed the Emperor’s chook at will.”

He checked the time once more.

He actually couldn’t afford to say goodbye and began operating.

Rieta may see the route he was going.

BB climbed up alongside the emergency spiral staircase constructed on one facet of the wall.
