(Three month later)
Auberi walked into the castle. Alex is sitting on his throne. As long as Auberi stand in front of the king he knelt down and bowed his head.
"I'm here father.." Auberi said.
"Hmm.. Stand up.." Alex said.
Auberi stand up and look at the king.
"Thank you, father" Auberi said.
"How is your study?" Alex asked.
"Pretty good.." Auberi replied.
"Okay.. Good. Then you will have a dinner with the princess this evening." Alex said.
Auberi look down. Still bothered with the invisible tie that tied Crystal and him.
"Are you listening to me?" Alex asked Auberi.
"Oh.. Yeah.. I'm listening." Auberi said.
"Don't be late! It is an important event!" Alex said. Auberi nods, bow and leave.
Black looked at Auberi. He is planning an evil plan to make Auberi disappear from the world. But.. it's just a beginning. He will slowly and silently take away the throne from Alex while the chaos occurred.
"Black, prepare a car for Prince Auberi." Alex said.
"Of course, your highness" Black said and smiled. An evil smile.

Crystal sat down on the club's floor. She is breathless because she has been practicing for eight hours endlessly.
Aryan approach Crystal and patted her shoulder.
"Don't push yourself too hard, Crystal. I will get scolded by your master." Aryan said and laughed.
Crystal looked at Aryan. "Well.. I think he won't scold you because of this. He has pushed me hard back then too." Crystal said and sighed.
Aryan looked at Crystal then looked up. Sighed. "Well.. he is not really that kind of person.." Aryan said.
"He is very kind.. " Aryan said and smiled. Recalled when they were still young, playing together. Auberi is the only one that want to play with him.
Crystal glanced at Aryan. Looks like they are really a best friend. She wondered.
"Oh! Where is Anna?" Crystal asked Aryan.
"She went out and going to buy lunch for us.. We haven't eaten yet" Aryan said.
"Oh.. I see" Crystal said.
After a few seconds, Aryan's hand vibrated.
Aryan touched his hand and an animation of Auberi pop out.
"What's up bro?" Aryan asked.
"...I will having a dinner with the princess. So please tell my slave that I will go back a little late today. And please tell her to just sleep and she don't need to wait for me." Auberi said.
Aryan laughed. "Hey bro prince! Why you act like you are her husband? You don't really need to tell her about how long are you gonna be there! Just tell that you will have a dinner." Aryan said.
"Well.. Gotta go." Auberi said and ended the call.
"What's up?" Crystal asked Aryan.
"Oh! Auberi told me to tell you that he will having a dinner with his future wife. He will back a bit late." Aryan said.
Crystal stopped. "Future wife?" Crystal asked.
"Yeah. Future wife. Why?" Aryan asked.
"Oh.. it's nothing." Crystal said and looked down. A bit disappointed.
Aryan glanced at Crystal. She looks a bit disappointed. Did she fall for my precious friend!? Aryan wondered.
"Um.." Aryan hasn't done talking and Crystal cut his words.
"Um.. where is the location is?" Crystal asked.
Aryan wonder why did Crystal wanted to know this information.
"Sorry but I can't help you.. " Aryan said.
"Um.. don't misunderstand me. I am working as his bodyguard. I will protect him. In the same time, when there's a villain, I can test my skills that I've learned for three months from you Aryan!" Crystal said with a hope that Aryan will tell her.
"This.." Aryan said. Suddenly, his hand vibrated again. Crystal leaved Aryan and continued her ninja practice.
"Father? Why did you call me in this time?" Aryan asked.
"Can't I?" Black asked.
"What is it this time?" Aryan asked. He feels a little annoyed with his father.
"Don't treat me like that! You better thank me! I'm going to make you the next king! And then, we will rule the world and get.." Aryan cut Black's words.
"Enough!!! Can't you just don't bother!? I don't want to be a prince! Don't do anything that might harm my brother!!" Aryan shouted and ended the call.
Crystal was very shocked. She didn't expect that a cheerful man like him can be that fierce. She approached Aryan.
"What's wrong?" Crystal asked.
"You need to go.. you need to.. I can't help him.." Aryan said.
"Huh? What are you trying to say?" Crystal asked.
