Schwert POV
"So we have a week" I said with a sigh in my
breath.
"Yes brother, including you, me
and Jason. We have three people. We only need to search for three more" Sieg
said as he looked at Jason and me from where he was sitting which was a bit
higher than where we were.
"Well I think we three are more
than enough. Why do we need to waste our time finding another there useless
people" Jason argued
"Well it depends I guess we may
have a lot of offence and a good enough defense. But we still need a healer and
supporters" I said opposing Jason
"We don't need healers if we
don't get hurt" Jason argued
"That is true but how do you
intend to not get injured fighting" I said with a straight face
"Simple I will just kill everyone
that opposes me in a single hit" he said as a matter of fact
"And if it's someone who is
stronger than you" I asked
"I haven't thought that far ahead
yet" he said disappointingly
"See I told you" Sieg and I said
within same time
"I get it – I get it. Just leave
me alone" Jason said
"Did you stutter" I teased
"No I didn't" he replied
"Stop it you two we still need to
find three new members" Sieg said angrily
"I have an idea" I said eagerly
"And what is it mister GENIOUS"
both Sieg and Jason said in a similar voice
I snuffled
"You guys don't need to praise me
so much" I said with a grin
"It's called sarcasm" Jason said
as he sighed
"Wait… there's the concept of
sarcasm in this world" I thought and as I looked clueless from the outside
"HUH… never mind so what is your
brilliant 'plan' bro" Jason asked
"Let's make it competition and
see who can recruit the first person" I proposed
"Well that not a half bad idea"
Jason who seemed to be surprised
"I told ya so" I said with a
smirk
"Yes – yes brother you are very
smart we all know that"
"So let's split up and whoever losses
pays for the banquet for starting our party" I said as I went to the distance
"Fine let's do it" Jason stands
up and goes his separate way
"They didn't ask about me. Well it
doesn't matter anyway" Sieg said as he went another way
Sieg POV
"Looks like I got to work hard.
Even if I'm not
competitive I still don't want to
be the one to pay
for the banquet" I said with a
sigh
Even if we needed members there
was no need
for a competition
"I would like to choose a member
probably a
healer Jason and my brother will
most likely fine
a supporter or a damage dealer I
thought.
"Let's go to the temple there
should be a healer
from our institute praying right
about this time
let's go through the shortcut" I
said to myself.
As I went through the alleyways
and the back
ends of the capital to reach one
of the closest
temples from my current location.
I saw a girl getting manhandled
by couple of
thugs in the way. It was getting
late for me to
reach the temple so I was going
to ignore her. But
then I saw the insignia of a
cross on top of a blue
lotus I knew it was a healer. It
was compulsory
for a healer to wear that
insignia to better
recognize them in the institute.
And she was
definitely a student and a first
year as there was
only one stripe in the arm of her
uniform.
"I thing I've got a winner" I
said to myself.
"Hey, kid do you want to have
some fun with us"
thug number one said.
"No, I have to go dorm now. I
will be in trouble if
they found out that I was out
after the curfew
hour" she said
"Come on don't worry about it too
much we will
be sure to be gentle hell it
might even feel good
after a while" the second thug
said
"I don't think I will be very
good at it" she said
"Fine I think I'll let you go" a
thug said
sarcastically as he pulled out a
dagger "looks like
I have to be forceful and …"
"Hey stop it. Don't force that
girl" I said stopping
whatever they were doing
"Who are you kid? Don't try to
mess with us, we
will ki..." before he finished I
punched him in the
face and he went fling
"You were saying something" I
said with a smug
face
"Kid I'll kill you now" another
thug said as he
came with the dagger
I simply dodged him and punched
him with an
enhanced fist with a bit of
technique I learnt from
my brother. He was sent flying
"Is that all. You should be
stronger before you
mess with someone. You can't even
defeat this
little boy" I said with a grin
"I'll get you for that" the third
thug said as he
ran away
"Ha-ha just try it" I said
"Thank you for saving me" the
girl said with a
soft voice.
"Don't mention it now." I said
with a smile
"I will try my best you back for
this." She said
"About that, are you in any party
yet" I asked
"No I am not" she simply said
"That's great then what about
joining a party
with me" I said with a welcoming
smile
"I think I can." She said with a
smile
"My name is Sieg victor welcome
to the group" I
said with a smile
"Hmm my name is Angelina Wilson.
And thank
you for having me" she said with
a soft voice as
she looked liked bowing
Jason POV
Around the same time
"I lost to Schwert before in that
competition
during the at the battle with
those half brains. So
I am not going to lose without a
fight" I said
"Come to think of it I have a
roommate who
hasn't joined any party yet and
he is a pretty
good when it comes to support
magic he told me
he is pretty good if I play my
card safe I might
not lose to them." I thought as I
sprinted toward
my dorm room as fast as I could.
"Hey Adam I've got a good news" I
said as I
slammed the door open.
"HUH what is it" Adam said
"You will be joining me in my
party" I said with
my chest high
"It great an all. But I don't
think I can keep up
with you or the ones in your
group" he said as he
looked disappointed
"There's no need to be so sad, me
and my buddy
will make sure you are prepared
for it" I said
with a thumbs up
"Thanks but no thanks, I don't
want to be a
burden to you and your friend" he
said
"Don't sweet about the small
stuff" I said
confidently
"If you say so. I will try my
best" he said
"That's my boy and your reward
for helping me
in this endeavor is that I will
spend the night with
you and make sure you don't get a
wink of sleep
tonight" I said
"No I am good. And stop with the
act" he said
"Tisk tisk you know me better
than I thought" I
said to him
"You can stop with your act when
we are alone I
know you only do this so that you
don't get roped
into an arranged marriage with
the girl from
[that] house" he said
"Yes it is true. But I think I
will keep it a secret
from them just for a while. As
the say a man
must have some secrets of their
own" I said with
a smug look
"Ya-Ya mister or should I say
misses" he said
with a grin
"Shut up I am guy for lord's
sake" I said angrily
"Fine" he said
Schwert POV
Around the time when Sieg saved
Angelina
"I don't know who I should
recruit. I said it was
a competition but looks like I
dug my own grave.
This time around." I thought
"Come to think about it there
should be [that]
person she always used to
challenge me. She said
I was her rival or something. I
don't know why,
she came out of who knows where
and started
challenging me to different
showdowns to prove
she was better than me. And she
did join the
institute as a magic knight
rather than a
magician" I said with a sigh
"Let's see if I can find her.
Around this time she
should be..." before I could
think of where she
would
"Ohh if it isn't my rival in
flesh. I think it's been
a long time before our last duel.
What do you
think we have one now-w-w-w" she
shuttered as
she fell on the ground after
tripping her own leg.
"Maybe, how about we make a
competition on
how much we can fall in an hour.
And in this one
you will surely win charlotte" I
teased
"Shut up" she said as she looked
embraced of
falling
"So what are you doing here? You
should be in
the manor right about now." I
asked
"Well things happened and I ran
away" she said
with puppy dog eyes
"Again, what this time did? It
should be like the
23 rd time you ran away." I said
mater of factly
"It's nothing to do with you.
It's more to do with
my guardians." She protested
"So what will you do now" I asked
holding my
laughter
"I will do the same thing I
always do I'll just stay
with you at your place" she said
with a smile
"What are you saying? We are not
kid's anymore
plus I live in the dormitory
right now" I protested
"Fine whatever, so where do you
live right now"
she said ignoring me
"Did you not hear what I was
saying" I said
angrily
"Fine I'll do something about it.
But I have a
condition" I said giving up as nothing
I will say
will make a difference
"What is that? Do you want to be
spoiled by me
or something?" she said with a
wink
"Shut up you crazy girl" I said
angrily "you
haven't joined a party have you?"
as I sighed
"Yes not yet what about that" she
said with a
straight face
"How about you join my party" I
said with a
smile
"Fine I have nowhere else to go.
I will join your
stupid party" she said
"I think I need to talk things
over with Sieg" I
thought
Near the male dorms
"Stay here until I say so" I said
to charlotte
"Make it quick" she said
"Brother I found a healer for
us." Sieg said
proudly
"That's good an all. But there's
a problem" I said
worriedly
"And what is it. You created
trouble for someone
again" Sieg said worriedly
"No it's not that. Charlotte came
back and she
did her usual tantrums" I said
"Not again" Sieg said
"So we need to find a place where
she can stay or
else we might have to keep her" I
said to Sieg
"I got a place in mind let me
check it out first."
He said that and went away
through the window
"I better go to charlotte now or
she might do
something rash" I thought about
something
"Hey charlotte" I said
"Hey Schwert I think you have
found the place
for me" charlotte asked
"Well I don't know. Sieg went to
check it out. Oh
there he is…" I was saying when I
saw Sieg
coming princess carrying a girl.
"So Sieg who is your GIRLFRIEND
why don't
you introduce us" I and charlotte
teased at the
same time.
"No it's not like that yet"
angelica said
"Not yet huh" charlotte teased
"No" angelica looked flustered
(so cute<3)
"So where did you find such a
cutie" I asked Sieg
"It's not like that she is the
healer I was talking
about" Sieg insisted
"So why did you bring her here" I
asked
"She told me that she leaved
alone in the dorm so
I thought we can keep charlotte
at her place" Sieg
said seriously
"Ohh then why did you carry her
here" I asked
"That, girl dorm is a bit far
from boy's dorm and
we needed to hurry so I brought
her that way"
"Anyway let's take them back" I
said
"So charlotte you will be staying
with umm Sieg
what is her name I forgot to ask"
I queried
"Its angelica our healer" Sieg
said
"It's good to meat you, and Sieg
why are there two of you" angelica questioned
"Angelica nice to meet you I am Sieg older twin my name is Schwert" I said with a
smile
"Oh nice to meet you" angelica
said with a bow
"Angelica this girl here is
charlotte, our
childhood friend and can you take
care of her"
Sieg said
"Yes, I will try it. My best"
angelica said
"Thank you for your help"
charlotte said as she
hugged angelica
"Meet us tomorrow in the school
cafeteria at
lunch ok" I said to angelica and
charlotte
"Fine we will meet you tomorrow"
charlotte said
