Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Episode 1

It was a bright day in the kingdom. A boy named Eric was helping the bread shop owner with some boxes. Eric is in his early adult years. He has orange spiky hair. His eyes is orange and he wears a white shirt with green pants. After he helps the store owner, Eric goes to see Elaine. The two sat at a lunch table. Elaine talks to Eric about seeing the king. Eric didn't understand. Then Elaine talked about special opportunities that could happen if the king knew him, since he's quite known to the people. Eric thought about it and walked away.

As he was walking he encountered two knights. The knights told him that the king would like to see him. Eric was shocked for a second then followed the knights to the castle. Now they are in the castle and the two knights lead Eric to a room with a long table with chairs all around it. At the far end was the king sitting at the head of the table, and on his side was his right hand man, Jonicus. Eric was excited about the whole situation, he remembered his talk with Elaine and the special opportunities. The king started talking to Eric about how he's heard a lot of good things about him. Then he stated how he just wanted to finally see Eric in person. Eric smiled, then the king said to Eric that he can leave now. Eric was confused because the conversation didn't go how he planned it. As Eric turned around the king stopped him. He told Eric to stop by later on for a special dinner. Eric smiled then bowed his head to the king and walked off. When the doors closed Jonicus asked the king if he was still doing the plan. The king responded that he had no choice.

Eric rushed to see Elaine and when he saw her he yelled her name. Then he told her about everything that just happened. She got excited for him. Then Eric told her about the special dinner. Elaine got really excited and asked him if he knew about the king's special dinners. He said no. Then she talked about how the king invites lots of important people and at least one zodiac knight has to be there. Eric wondered if Pisces would be there. Pisces is his favorite zodiac knight, mostly because Eric is a pisces. After that he went home to prepare for the dinner.

Once it was time Eric headed to the castle. He was wearing black pants and a white shirt that had a bow tie design and buttons going down the shirt (since he didn't have any fancy clothes). Once he entered the room he was shocked, because no one was in there. Except for the king and Jonicus, but he expected some more people especially Pisces. Then the king asked him to take a seat. He also stated that usually there would be a lot of people but he just wanted to talk to Eric. Eric understood and sat down. The king looked at Jonicus. Then Jonicus told Eric that he has committed crimes against the king and he is sentenced to death. Eric had never looked so confused until now. Then he yelled that this must've been some misunderstanding, and how he didn't do anything. Then a knight touched his shoulder. Eric had knocked his hand off then grabbed the food tray, turned around and smacked the knight knocking him to the floor. He ran out the room after that. Once he had turned the corner a knight had seen him and swung his sword downwards towards Eric. Eric had jumped and put his hands on top of the knight's helmet and hopped over him. Then he had ran outside of the castle hopping on the back of a horse. As the horse started running off. Jonicus started talking on the speaker tube. He stated that a boy named Eric has committed crimes to the king and is sentenced to death. As soon as Elaine heard it. Eric had rode passed her. They both made eye contact then Eric started heading out the kingdom.

Later on that night Jonicus and the king was talking to a zodiac knight about Eric. The king stated not to fail him. Pisces replied not to worry.
