"The first question is..." says Julius in a calm voice to those three hooligans. "Who hired you?"
"Why would we tell you that?" asks one of those hooligans.
Then, Julius raises his left hand and a violet sphere which has a small size, magically appeared and he is moving that sphere closer to one of the hooligans which are started to act weird. The skin of that hooligan is started to turn from white and yellow, to dark, his teeth have started to fall off, the eyes are starting to become white like that hooligan is about to go blind, and also their body is starting to lose weight. This action is the power of the violet sphere which is known as the name of the "Sphere of Aging". A sphere that can make the human age fast.
Julius did not want to see those hooligans die in front of him, so, he decided to make the sphere disappear and in a few seconds, those hooligans have turned to their original phase. And they have told everything to Julius.
"Two knights from this village told us to steal the treasure from this old lady." says the one who has long blonde hair and a nail into his nose as a symbol of power or something like this. "They did not want to do by themselves because this job ain't for them, and also, they are lazy every day. You can find them in every morning and day on a Bar drinking beer or Wine because knights get everything these days."
"So let me be clear... Those two forced you three to stole the treasure of an old and innocent lady?"
"Y-Yes!" says another hooligan who is wearing a helmet made out of fine iron. "If we did not do that, they would have arrested us for treason."
"Treason?... You did not work for them right?"
"No. We did not work for them." says the first hooligan.
"Then why are you doing their order? It is not normal for a pe- civilian to work for justice."
"I don't know how things are in your Kingdom, boy." says the third one who has short dark hair and wears an armour made out of iron. "But there, if you want to live a normal life and do not be executed for treason, every civilian has to flow the orders of those lazy Royal Knights, normal knights, and also The Emperor. The nobles, are the only ones who are trying to make The Emperor do something."
"This new," says Fred entering the house because he got bored staying outside. "Nobels trying to take down the big one." and he looks at Julius. "Aint you a noble?"
"I was," responds Julius to Fred's question. "And also, you should leave this house."
"Why? are you afraid I am going to burn this room?"
"I am afraid you are going to burn the entire house."
"Look. I can control the power, pretty boy," says Fred making a spark on his right hand and make it disappear to show Julius he can control fire in a good manner. "Also. I wanted to know what this damn Empire is capable of from these three prisoners." and he sits on a chair while he looks at Julius interrogating those three hooligans.
In the room, Julius continues to interrogate these three hooligans, Fred and Josh stays there and watch how the interrogation goes and if those hooligans will decide to do a suicide move.

On the room where Camille is with the old lady to calm her down, the old lady, after she took a cup of her berries tea, she asked Camille.
"What has happened to the Romania Kingdom in these twenty years?"
"What do you want to know?" asks Camille the old lady.
"Who is the king?"
"The king is someone nobody has expected to become but someone which people can really rely on. He is intelligent, a good strategic and also a great mage, even though he is a peasant and not a noble like the previous kings." responds Camille to the old lady which seems intrigued by this person. "The King name is Yungay Julius."
The old lady was shocked at this answer, and, while she was shaking, she asks Camille, but this time slower.
"W-Who is the king?"
"Yungay Julius."
And the old lady has started to shed a tear from her left eye to Camille, and she smiles at her for no reason.
"That bastard actually did it." says the old lady wiping the next tear who is coming from her right eye.
"You do know him?" she asks Camille surprised.
"Of course I know him. He is my dear nephew and the only wizard who has successfully survived the Kingdom of Romania in the domination of that tyrant who hates mages and wizards. But anyway, did the boy did a great job?"
"He is doing a great job, he allowed mages to stay there, he invests much more money in creating new workplaces, he raised the payment for knights because he destroyed the bounty hunters agencies and he wanted to spend money on something, and he also captured some lost territories because of one king who sent his untrained royal army to fight Yugos Tribes, which are now extinct for much more than a decade because of those Hungarians who wanted to gain land."
"So... The things are going good in that kingdom. That boy was always saying he wanted to become the King because he read a few thousands of novels with kings who protect their country and help his citizens to become good persons. But one day, one of those knights, got an order to capture all of the magicians and execute them, and Julius has successfully escaped, thanks to his uncle who is a non-magician human. I will never forget that brave guy action."
Camille was kind of fascinated by this, and she is willing to listen to the story the Aunt of her King is telling.
"His parents were mages and wizards, both of them passed quite a big power, but unlike my sister (she is referring to mother of Julius) I am a non-magician human, which helped to leave that place because I cannot see how thousands of mages and wizards corpses are thrown into the river because they cannot burry peasants in the Cemetery."
"... Now the Cementary belongs to everyone, not just to nobles."
"I am glad to hear that." responds the old lady after she let out a sight. "I just wish I could see my dear nephew one more time before I will pass."
"How old are you, madam?"
"... I am one hundred two years old, young girl." responds the old lady to Camille who was not expecting to hear that number from a lady who isn't looking that old but somewhere at sixty or seventy years old. "I could die any time, dear warrior. I could die tonight. Or tomorrow morning, who knows now? The Gods of Fates are the only ones who are creating people destiny, not us, humans."
"I see." she responds Camille to the old lady.
"And... Does the fire boy is a good guy?"
"To be honest, I have no idea. He seems a good guy, but his actions belong to a bad guy. One time I heard he burned a woman corpse by mistake, which was probably intended by him."
"... If consider him being a good guy, then I am considering too."
"Cool."
"Anyway, dear knight... How was the road here?"
"Kind of bumpy. But how is this Empire treating his fellow citizens?"
"Like a cat to a mouse. They send their own knights and hooligans to steal our pieces of stuff which will be on the King's hands and he will keep them forever. An because of him, this Empire is starting to fall by himself, because one guy without knowledge in leading something it is a bad decision."
"I see your point here. Our nobles haven't even been changed in these days, they have become the same bastards who wanted to regain their throne and start some massive Noble Families wars or some bullshit like that."
A few seconds later, Julius enters the room and he looks at Camille.
"We've got some company waiting outside."
Camille left the old lady in her bedroom, she takes her sword which was laying on the floor and she goes outside with her teammates, and there, they got accompanied by a few knights who are fully armoured and there is the guy from a few hours ago which is bandaged at the injures he is having after he got beaten by Lucian, Fred and even Julius.
