When he came out of the bathroom Azco saw Chintya was feeding food to the child, he saw Chintya also bribed him with a smile so that the child was smiling which made it look cute even though his face was still dirty.
Not even the two of them were aware that Azco had gotten out of the bathroom from earlier and was currently walking up to them.
"Hello son, are you okay?" Azco stroked the child's head suddenly.
"Yeah!!!" the girl reacted in surprise and fear when she saw Azco like she was at the inn but this time she immediately hugged Chintya
"Azco you don't scare him." Chintya said as she stroked the boy's head. "It's okay, there's no need to be afraid this uncle isn't evil anyway." Her speech.
'Where do I look to scare her?' Azco is confused as to why the child is always frightened when he sees himself.
"Ehm right, great uncle." Azco said with a sincere smile. "Here..!" Azco immediately raised Chintya and the child at once and then he sat on the edge of the bed, then placed them both on his lap.
"Honey continue to feed it." Azco told Chintya. "And you sweet child eat a lot that does not need to be confused." He added stroking the hair of the girl who seemed to have calmed down and was no longer afraid of her.
Finished feeding the child Chintya invited him to take a bath together and answered with a nod, somehow the child did not say a word.
While Chintya and the boy were taking a bath, Azco found a girl's outfit the size of her until Azco remembered that Leon and Lena had stayed at her house and left behind some of their nightgowns.
"The princess has a lot of clothes in the palace, so I thought it would be okay to ask for just one." Azco muttered.
Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Chintya is rubbing the girl's body carefully because she does not want to make the child in pain if she accidentally rubs her wound.
"Do you have a family like a father, a mother, or a sibling?" Chintya asked and answered the headband.
Chintya can understand it from Azco's story of finding the child being beaten for stealing bread. Because if he still has a family, he will not steal like that and maybe his body will be more managed.
"Oh yeah I don't know your name yet, do you have a name?" Ask Chintya again.
"Waa waa." The boy shook his head.
'Is this poor boy with special needs?' Inner Chintya because the child can only issue the word 'waaa' from earlier.
A decision appeared in Chintya's mind.
"Then your name is Falma." Chintya. But he saw the boy shed tears.
"Do you not like his name?"
The child immediately hugged Chintya tightly while crying but clearly his face was smiling.
Chintya returned his embrace glad the child would accept the name he gave.
After there was nothing dirty in Falma's entire body, then he looked very beautiful and cute. Chintya thinks maybe Falma can also be Lena's friend.
After bathing and soaking together, they came out of the bathroom. Azco who was sitting in a chair waiting for the two to come out of the bathroom was surprised to see the appearance of the girl who was beautiful and also cute.
Azco immediately handed the clothes she had prepared to Chintya with a reddened face because when she came out of the bathroom the two did not wear a single outfit.
Chintya takes the clothes and helps Falma use them. At first he wanted to drive Falma to sleep in the next room, but Falma shook his head while hugging Chintya's arm.
Finally Falma went to bed with Azco and Chintya in their room, because Azco also did not mind.
After Falma slept.
"Honey can I adopt her to be our child?" Chintya's question made Azco surprised.
"Wait a minute, are you serious?" Azco asked back.
"Emm somehow I feel like I already have a bond with Falma." Chintya replied smilingly as she stroked Falma's hair beside her. "Do you disagree because Falma has special needs?" Sickly next.
Azco massaged her own forehead. He did not disagree because Falma had special needs, but he was still confused about what the task was given Xio.
"If you don't want to adopt her together it's okay, I'll take care of her myself." Chintya said because she did not get an answer at all from Azco.
"No, that's not what I meant! Alright we'll adopt it together!" Azco held Chintya's hand. "But please hide Falma first, lest any courtier know it." Azco added.
"Emm well thank you." Chintya smiled.
Azco thought maybe in the Vir Dihomu continent there were still other Boldur races besides Falma. If he had already completed the task from Xio, then he would not need to hide Falma.
...----------------...
The next day, Azco was already in the palace or rather was standing nervously in front of the door of Xio's study.
Tokks! poke!
Azco knocked on the door.
"Lake in!" Xio in the room.
With Oerlahan Azco opened the door and then entered by trying to be normal and not speak in the heart or think so as not to be suspected, considering Xio can read the hearts and minds of others.
Upon entering, Azco sees Xio sitting in his chair holding one of his babies, Tassa, accompanied by Sebas, standing behind Xio's chair.
"Greetings Your Majesty!" Azco gave her greeting by bowing her chest slightly.
"Hm." Deheman by Xio. "Have you got what I asked for?" Xio asked, without looking at Azco directly because it seemed like he was playing with his index finger held by Tassa.
"I apologize Your Majesty, I haven't gotten what you asked for." Azco Answer.
"Oh, once you're not as fast as usual." Said Xio glancing at Azco.
"That's because I can't find a single Boldur in the kingdom that's there Your Majesty."Azco.
"Do you need help? I'll have anyone accompany you." Xio.
"No need, Your Majesty, let me look for him myself." Azco Answer. "I'm sorry if I'm so presumptuous, may I ask what Boldur's heart is to be made of?" Further asked.
Sebas immediately widened his eyes as if to signal Azco not to ask, because there was no one Xio told about what he wanted to make. Sebas also knew this because he accidentally found a piece of paper whose contents could make someone think that Xio was crazy.
"Hmm.but unfortunately I can't tell anyone that." Xio Say.
"Okay, Your Majesty! forgive me!" exclamation Azco. "Then I will resume my search now." Added.
"Yes please." Answer Xio.
Azco bowed her chest slightly and walked out of the room.
"Free.." call Xio.
"I am Your Majesty." Reply Sebas immediately stood firmly on the side facing Xio.
"Mooho pardon the pity that has not been careless to see the paper Your Majesty." For apologizing while bowing his chest, but his tone was as flat as ever because it was like that how Sebas would speak everyday in any situation.
"I am prepared to accept any punishment from His Majesty." Further.
"I won't punish you, but if anyone finds out again then get ready." Xio Say. "And let not my wife know it either." Add Xio.
"Your Majesty, I understand." Reply Sebas was replied by a nod by Xio.
Meanwhile, on Azco's side. As he was walking in the palace hallway, he accidentally bumped into Ellisa who was holding Nathan in her arms with two female servants walking behind him.
"Greetings Her Majesty the Queen." Azco greeted Ellisa.
"Oh Azco, did you just meet Xio?"
"Right be Your Majesty." Azco Answer.
"So Leon and Lena said they'd go to your house to see you." Ellisa.
'I forgot today there was an appointment with them!' Inner Azco panic. He forgot that today had promised the two of them to go to the Elf continent looking for something.
"Azco are you okay?" Ellisa asked because she just saw Azco's expression.
"Ah haha it's okay Your Majesty.Then I'm sorry to be going home now, who knows the Prince and the Princess are already waiting for me." Azco says that he is afraid that Leon and Lena will meet Falma.
"Hmm okay." Ellisa replied wondering why Azco was in such a hurry.
...----------------...
On Leon and Lena's side. They both go to Azco's house by teleporting using Leon's skill.
At Azco's house is Chintya, Falma and a few helpers and gardeners, as Chintya's friends return to their families.
Leon and Lena have arrived in the front yard of his house, because they both have been used to visit there so that the helpers are not strange anymore there are princes and princesses who visit.
Without knocking on the door first they went inside and called Azco's name.
"It doesn't seem to be here." Lena.
"Emm try to just go to her room." Said Leon.
They both climbed the stairs because Azco's room was right on the 2nd floor where the other rooms were as well.
While walking towards Azco's room, Leon and Lena accidentally see in one of the rooms that looks like someone who is like a child is combing hair.
Out of curiosity who the child was, Leon and Lena went straight into it, and they saw a girl who was the same age as him, and they looked at him, the child had lamb-like horns and a short, wavy black rbut was standing in front of the mirror. The child is Falma.
"Hi! what's your name?" Lena's exclaim directly approached him even making Falma startled.
"Lena you're surprising her." Leon said head bobble.
"Hehe forgive me." Answer Lena.
"Waa..." Falma replied while moving his hand like a gesture.
"It seems he can't talk." Whisper Leon to Lena.
"Emmm...Can't you talk?" Lena asked as she held Falma's hand, afraid of hurting her feelings.
Falma replied with a nod.
"Then you write your name here." Leon handed him a piece of paper and a pen, but answered with a head-belt. Leon and Lena understand that Falma can't write either.
"So how's this?" Ask Leon. Leon scratched his head as if he was thinking.
"Do you know where Aunt Chintya or Zio Azco is?" This time Leon asked Falma.
(Zio \= Uncle in Italian)
Falma pulls Leon and Lena's hand as if inviting them to follow him. And it turns out Falma drove them to the kitchen where Chintya was cooking.
Chintya is shocked and panicked when Falma comes to him carrying Leon and Lena behind him, considering Azco says that no one knows where Falma is first.
"Tante, does Aunt know him?" Lena pointed at Falma.
Chintya nodded, "Yes introduce her name Falma, Falma is Aunt and Uncle Azco's adopted son." Chintya stroked Falma's head.
"Ohh Falma, hello Falma introduce my name Lena, and this is my brother Leon." Said Lena smiling kindly while shaking Falma's hand. "Now we're friends!" Added.
Chintya smiled because apparently Lena wanted to be friends with Falma even though she knew Falma could not speak or mute.
"Three of you wait at the dinner table, Auntie just made a cookie." Chintya.
"OK!" Lena raised her thumb and pulled Leon and Falma's hands to sit at the dinner table waiting for Chintya.
Meanwhile outside the Azco Mansion has just arrived and hastily entered the house to determine whether Leon and Lena have arrived or not, Because he had just come home at high speed thinking Leon and Lena had come to his house on horseback or on foot.
But unfortunately Azco's estimation was wrong, when checking into the dining room he could see the two of them together with Falma were enjoying a pastry made by Chintya accompanied by a glass of milk each on the table.
"Zio where have you been? we've been here." Lena.
"Ah that. zio had to meet with His Majesty first." Azco Answer.
"Zio also why didn't tell us that Zio and Aunt raised Falma as children." Said Leon.
"Actually Falma just arrived yesterday, so zio hasn't had the time to tell him." Azco clear.
"Ohh so, then papah should also know." Lena.
"Hoo wait for the Princess, please don't tell Your Majesty first."
"Why is that why? papah would also love to know that Zio already has a child."
Azco no longer knew what to answer, because it was impossible for him to tell Xio's true request to his children.
"There is no need to let Zio himself preach it directly to His Majesty." Azco said. "zio also asked the prince and princess not to tell anyone about Falma ok?" Further.
"OK! but there's a condition." Replied Leon smiling cunningly.
'My feelings are not good.' Azco Inner.
