After I left the girl's room and took nyarla along with me I then dropped off by grimm's and the other students room where I found them all enjoying themselves with grimm playing with natsu and sistine

"Hey grimm!let's go"

"Huh?where are we going?"he asked me

"Go see some old acquaintances and maybe go down in the abyss"i said

"The abyss?isn't that a place where there's a super scary liquid?"asked betty

"Yeah but don't worry we will see it all together the next day"i said as grimm then  ran towards me

And so we left the hotel to go check on the new hollow

As we were walking around I was recognized by bugs and other ones that have turned to humans due to their higher soul capabilities

I then passed by the dung defender who was patrolling around the city

"Oh Hey ogrim it's good to see you're doing good"

"Master Y/n?!is that you!?I cannot believe at how much you have grown!and you master grimm!you have grown really well!!"he said sounding cheerful

He's really an amazing guy,even after losing all his comrades and the woman he loved he still has this amazing upbeat attitude that you just can't help but smile at

He then turned around

"And could this be the lucky lady?"he asked which made me panic

"Huh?!of course not!we're just related that's all!"I responded

"Oh,my apologies then,well then I must resume in my patrol then!"he said as he walked away

"He seems like a nice guy,although I'd happily kill him if he mistakes me again"she said as both me and grimm calmed her down

"Hey nyarla it's no big deal,give the guy some slack will ya?he's already been through enough"i said as we kept on walking

And we got lost

"Dammit,how can you get lost in an underground city?it's so confusing!"complained grimm

"I much prefer it as a city in ruins over this"i said

"That's why I should have come with you"said a female voice as we turned around to see hornet sitting on the rooftop of a house

"Hornet?for how long have you been here?"I asked her

"Her aura is too small for me to sense that it blended in with the other people!"remarked nyarla

"This is the first time all three of you come in the streets of hallownest right?no wonder you lost your way her
Which is why..."she said as she then went besides me and hugged my arm in the opposite side of nyarla

"...you'll need a guild~"she said as nyarla looked pissed off to the point she was muttering incantations that I stopped by grimm closing her mouth shut

And so hornet took us to the main palace as in the way there I saw so many royalties and big wealthy people I felt like a cat next to a pack of lions

But we passed through them all and went to the main palace

The white palace which is the king's private quarters,no one other than him and his closest court members and knights could step inside as the entrance was being surveilled by kingsmould and wingsmoulds

They all noticed us coming in and bowed down

"Wow,guess being the hollow knight's secretary has it's perks"i said

Then a young like voice spoke

"They're not bowing down to her"

I then turned around to see a small girl with a giant hat on

"Herrah is that you?!you haven't changed a single bit since we last saw each other at the wedding!"I greeted my old teacher

"I'm happy to see you too Y/n"

"Why are they bowing down then?"asked grimm

"Well it's most likely not because of my lazy daughter"

"I was only showing Y/n the way to the palace"

"But you already finished that task so you don't have anything else to do,and I heard that your help is still needed over at-"

"I get it!I get it!"said hornet leaving as herrah giggled

"That's not very nice"i said

"We all know I didn't mean it

Anyways you want to see him right?"she asked me as I nodded and she thus walked me through small passageways to the king's quarters

We then arrived at a giant door

"Here he is,your younger brother"she said as she then opened the door in which sitting in a chair while reading a book near a campfire was none other

He then noticed turned around

"Brother?"
