The Lost Prince
CHAPTER 74 IS LOVE
After finishing meeting with Prince Revan in Naraya Village, Jessica and Freya and Daniela decided to return to Centauri Palace later that night.
Jessica really did not know and did not realize that his departure was too fast, there was someone whose heart was disappointed.
But indeed Jessica could not think of any man, even though as handsome as she was, her heart was still filled with the little healer.
Going to the Centauri Palace which was in the Chaotic Sunscreen Country could not use teleportation science. Because as the name implies Centauri Palace is indeed in the occult veil that can not be penetrated by anything.
The only way to get to Centauri Palace is through a line specially made by the early founder of Centauri Palace, Consort Heliana Arawinda. It is through an unseen door called THE GATE OF LIGHT.
While Jessica, in addition to having teleportation knowledge, she has also been taught how to get in and out of Centauri Palace using the Gate of Light.
After performing the ritual of summoning the Gate of Light and the radiant supernatural door appeared, Jessica and her two teammates entered.
Long story short, General Jessica has reported about the movement of the palace troops who want to attack the northern village to Her Majesty the Great Queen.
Also briefly told about the current condition of the northern village because Her Majesty the Great Queen asked.
After that, a special meeting was held which was only attended by the elite Centauri Palace, in addition to Consort Heliana Arawinda. Because the woman who is in her 60s does not want to be preoccupied with the affairs of the Centauri Palace government.
After spending less than half a day of that special meeting was over already. And made some decisions.
Among them are troops who will advance to fight later for a while is Class 2 Special Forces totaling 200 personnel. Equipped with 2 Squad Chiefs and 1 Danpasus (Special Forces Commander).
Centauri Palace Special Forces consist of 3 large groups or classes.
Class 1 Special Forces, namely the senior forces of Centauri Palace or pioneer forces. They numbered about 600 personnel, 6 Squad Chiefs and 1 Danpasus. Another name of their army was the Red Rose Army.
Class 2 Special Forces, namely junior or 2nd generation troops who have only joined in the period of ±8 this year. They numbered about 1200 personnel. And divided into 2 age groups.
The first group is called the Yellow Rose Army. This Special Forces personnel junior troops whose age range is 18-20 years. They numbered about 800 personnel, 8 Squad Chiefs and 1 Danpasus.
The 2nd group is called the Blue Rose Army. These troops are personnel junior troops whose age range is 21-25 years. They numbered 400 personnel, 4 Squad Chiefs and 1 Danpasus.
Class 3 Special Forces, which are junior troops whose prowess is at the same level as Class 2 Special Forces. They numbered about 1000 personnel. It is also divided into 2 age groups.
The first group was called the White Rose Army. This team is personneled by junior troops whose age ranges from 18-20 years. They numbered 600 personnel, 6 Squad Chiefs and 1 Danpasus.
The 2nd group is called the Orange Rose Army. These troops are personnel junior troops whose age range is 21-25 years. They numbered 400 personnel, 4 Squad Chiefs and 1 Danpasus.
And the Class 2 Special Forces who participated in the war were the Yellow Rose Army. And his Danpasus was named General Abila Lesya.
Also join the selection of Centauri Palace, or rather the champions of Centauri Palace. The number included is only 20 people from the many champions of Centauri Palace.
As for General Jessica, he remained with 15 of his troops who were members of the Investigative Division.
Keep in mind, the Research Division Army is one of the elite forces owned by Centauri Palace. His personnel numbered only 300 people. All of them are from junior troops whose age range is 18-20 years.
Personnel who are members of it are people who are really elected, just like those who are members of Special Forces. And the prowess of its personnel is almost equivalent to the champion of Centauri Palace.
So at dusk Centauri Palace troops were dispatched to Naraya Village through the path of the Gate of Light.

Actually, Her Majesty the Great Queen wants to join the war with her troops. But with all due respect 2 Mothers of Centauri Palace and 12 Elders of Centauri Palace held her captive.
The reason is that this war is still a small war, not a big war. It is not appropriate for Her Majesty the Great Queen to participate first.
But Grand Queen Aurellia reasoned that she wanted to see the village at the northern end of it up close, especially Naraya Village.
Because General Jessica reported to him that Prince Revan wanted to make the northern village a reserve base. So he reasoned to want to see directly the village, whether it was worth being used as a base or not.
However, the 14 supreme councils of Centauri Palace did not allow Grand Queen Aurellia to participate.
"If that's your only reason" said Princess Clarabelle softly, "you can represent her to one of your Personal Guards, there's no need for you to jump straight in."
"You can send General Ariesha if you want" Princess Richelle said.
Although somewhat disappointed as well, but he was quite happy that General Ariesha who was sent to survey the village. At least it's quite representative of the real reason why he wanted to directly review the place that Prince Revan had proposed to serve as a backup base.
The real reason was that he was curious about Naraya Village when he asked General Jessica specifically.
He had heard General Ariesha tell him about a place where the abyss where Dhafin fell.
And he also once asked Dhafin directly about the name of the place. Although Dhafin did not mention his name, but Dhafin said the state of the place is quite medetail.
The ravine where Dhafin fell is not too far from a village in the highlands. Grand Queen Aurellia still remembers Dhafin's account of the location or place.
Just as he always remembers his heart. And he will continue to remember it not to be forgotten. Remembering his handsome face and charming smile.
Imagine how the face of Dhafin when he was an adult who was certainly more handsome. So that when he first saw when Dhafin was an adult, he immediately knew that what he saw was Dhafin.
Dhafin is now an adult. He knows that Dhafin is 20 years old. He grew curious to see the face of an adult Dhafin. And his longing for Dhafin is no longer unstoppable.
There was a strange feeling constantly stirring within him, which he felt was not just an ordinary feeling of liking.
When she revealed her feelings to the old woman who had been visited by her grandmother, Consort Heliana, then the concubine immediately knew that the feeling was LOVE.
The Queen has fallen in love. The Great Queen has loved someone. That person was none other than Dhafin.
But I don't know where Dhafin is now he doesn't know anymore.
When her brother and Kelvin came to the Centauri Palace to accompany Prince Nelson, Her Majesty the Great Queen was surprised.
There are no exceptions to his 4 Personal Guards; Ariesha, Jovita (Namira), Keysha (Naifa), and Grania, all of whom are General.
After finishing meeting with the leaders of Centauri Palace, the Grand Queen immediately asked why the two of them could join the Red Cloak Army and
So where is Dhafin now? Also where are Aziel and Keenan? Why can they be separated?
But he asked not at the meeting place, but at his private residence, near the main building of the Centauri Palace. The only ones who were waiting for him were his 4 Personal Guards.
So Brian tells how he and Kelvin were able to part with Dhafin and 2 other colleagues; aziel and Keenan.
(For more details on why they split up please refer back to CHAPTER 61 OF THE YEAR OF LOSS AND SEPARATION-****PARTISAH****!).
After hearing Brian and Kelvin's story, the five beautiful girls understood the problem.
They did not expect that the two handsome young men whose characters were almost similar were also victims of the capture of the Red Cloak Army which turned out to be now part of the army.
Well now, hearing Dhafin disappearing unseen so, Her Majesty's Great Queen's feelings turned into a deep sense of worry.
Not inferior to the anxiety felt by Ariesha. Because Dhafin is her brother despite being her adoptive sister.
While Jovita and Keysha, though also worried about Dhafin, their hearts are more worried about their guide first. Aziel and Keenan.
While Grania, because of her sense of solidarity, she worries about the existence of all of them. His heart was not heavy on any of them.

Centauri Palace troops numbering more than 200 personnel have arrived in Naraya Village at night. And the inhabitants of Naraya Village welcomed them with joy.
And it turned out that the Red Cloak Army from Centaurus Headquarters had arrived first. They numbered 100 personnel along with dozens of champions Headquarters Centaurus.
Actually the residents were astonished at all the troops. They came to this village quickly. From where they came the inhabitants could not know at all.
Prince Revan and his troops only told the residents that all the troops were from a very far place, without mentioning the name of the place.
But the people did not force them to tell him. They continue to welcome the friendly troops and entertain them as well as possible.
In the next few days, the residents of Naraya Village must be busy serving all the troops that protect their village. But they gladly did.
As for the residents of the other 3 villages, their attitude was cold when they learned of the arrival of the troops. It seemed like they had already been instigated by their respective village heads.
And even worse, when Prince Revan and some of his colleagues appealed to all residents of 3 villages under Naraya Village to evacuate to Naraya Village, none of the residents heeded the appeal.
"It is only natural that the inhabitants will obey the head of their village" commented General Ariesha when the officers held a meeting the next day. "Even though they are in danger of real danger."
"But that doesn't mean we ignore them, does it?" continued.
"That's one of the issues we're going to talk about right now, General Ariesha," Prince Revan said.
"It may be a good idea to ask the opinion of Elder Darius first" General Jessica proposed. "What is his view on this matter?"
"What, Elder Darius?" asked Prince Revan while looking at the old man who was also included in this meeting. "Master has an opinion?"
"Actually I became annoyed also at the stubborn attitude of the 3 village heads below and incited the residents to not want to evacuate," Elder Darius said politely.
"But I really hope to all of you to keep helping the residents from the rampage of the palace soldiers" he continued.
"I don't understand the science of war at all" he continued. "Then I leave everything about this to all of you."
"Alright, Elder Darius," Prince Revan said in response. "Our master's request received well."
Then he said while looking at the entire meeting.
"That means we agree that we continue to help the entire population of the lower village."
"Is Lord Revan confident that the palace troops will target the lower population as well as the residents here?" ask Ariesha.
"We feel confident that the palace troops will definitely also target the residents of the other 3 villages, Miss Ariesha," Brian who replied while staring fixedly at the beautiful face of Ariesha.
From childhood until now, he loved that girl. But the attitude the girl showed him was nothing more than a friend.
After all, she had never expressed her feelings to Ariesha. Just look at the girl. But his gaze was as an expression of his feelings for the girl.
But until now why has Ariesha not responded as well? He was sure Ariesha must have understood the meaning of his gaze.
"Then" said Ariesha without looking at Brian, "we must agree to keep helping the villagers down."
After that they continued to talk about technical or methods in helping the population. After they agreed on the technicalities on the ground how to help the residents they turned to talking about the next problem.
The officers of the army continued to discuss. Talk about how tactics and strategies are appropriate when the war against the palace forces.
What about when the war will be without destroying the building facilities of the residents.
