Chapter 19 - Meet The Princess of Aeros

Friks entered the throne room with Ramala the Great Oracle, Kaytrin and the ladies of the court and the Glass Palace guards. A number of people were waiting. The guests were important people in Aeros, the king and queen as well as the princess of the kingdom of Aeros and the knights who accompanied them.

"Your Majesty Eyharzt King of Aeros, please accept my respects," said Ramala the Great Oracle as she bowed her head.

Kaytrin and the ladies of the court and the guards of the Glass Palace immediately knelt to pay their respects.

"Long life and prosperity to Your Majesty Eyharzt, King of Aeros!" they all said as they knelt down.

Only Friks remained standing, confused as to what to do, since he had never been taught how to behave when meeting the king and other member of the Royal Kingdom.

"Young man, you must be the 44th generation successor of the Star Archer Knight, didn't I say so?" the king asked to make sure.

Friks nodded, "Yes, it seems so."

"Hahaha, you really are the Star Archer! Only a star knight clan would dare to speak to me without pleasantries and manners!" King Eyharzt laughed happily.

Friks scratched the back of his head, which was not itchy, it just a habit of him when he did not understand something. Then he turned his head next to the king and his eyes widened as he recognized the girl standing next to the king.

"You?! You're Dreinity, right?" asked Friks, pointing at Dreinity.

Dreinity smiled and nodded, "Yes, how are you Friks?"

"Oh dear! I wasn't expecting that, so you're the Princess of Aeros?" asked Friks in surprise.

Friks happy to see his classmate, walked over to Dreinity, but he tripped on the large carpet they were sitting on.

'Boom!' Friks collapsed to the floor a few steps before he reached Dreinity.

"What a careless boy!" Kaytrin thought back.

Dreinity went over to Friks and helped him to get up again.

"Are you all right, Friks?" Dreinity asked.

"I'm fine."

Friks clicked his tongue, an embarrassing thing, he had fallen over something again, and to make things even worse, he had fallen right in front of Dreinity.

"So you were the Princess of Aeros all along?" asked Friks, who was staring at Dreinity in fascination. Friks had always liked Dreinity, and he was even more amazed by Dreinity's current appearance, wearing a special princess outfit with a tiara on her head. She was very beautiful and graceful.

Dreinity nodded, "That's right. On Earth, I was only undercover as a young school girl, searching for the whereabouts of the Star Archer. I really didn't know that the Star Archer turned out to be you Friks!"

"Same, I just found out yesterday when I met Kaytrin and Arthure in Robert's coffee shop." Friks said.

"All of you please stand up!" King Eyharzt ordered everyone.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." said Kaytrin and the glass palace guards.

"Friks, you look well!" a familiar voice said in greeting.

Friks turned his head to the voice greeting him and smiled broadly when he recognized whose voice is it.

"Uncle Miilo, you came to Aeros too!" said Friks, happy that his uncle was also in Aeros.

"Yes, I am indeed a royal guard." Miilo said.

"Wow, you look dashing in that knight's armor!" praised Friks.

Miilo nodded and studied Friks' face and appearance. The nephew still wore a T-shirt and jeans in the style of an Earth teenager.

"I see you're still not wearing your Star Clan Knight armor. Can't you use that starbow yet?" asked Miilo, pointing at the starbow Friks was carrying in his left hand.

"He just used the power of the Star Bow for the first time when you all coming along." Ramala replied.

"Is that so? Very good! What did you summon with the star bow?" Miilo was curious.

"A fiery ball," Friks said.

Miilo nodded, "A fireball, huh? That's quite a powerful and useful magic."

"That's true, but I'm glad you're here, Miilo. You seem qualified to teach your nephew how to fight like a warrior." Ramala chimed in again.

"No, that task should be Reyyu's." Miilo choked up as he realized what he had just said, "I'm sorry Friks, I didn't mean to."

Friks sighed and shook his head, "It's okay Uncle Miilo. Mom already told me everything. That's why Friks came to Aeros, to find out where father is too!"

"How that seem to you Miilo? You see, the burden of teaching Friks to become a Knight of Aeros is now in your hands! I will teach him how to use the star bow and magic. While you are in charge of training him to become a high-level Knight of Aeros!" Ramala explained and half pushed Miilo.

Miilo did not answer immediately, but turned to King Eyharzt first.

The king nodded, "I think Ramala is right, Miilo, the task of teaching your nephew to become a Star Clan Knight rests on your shoulders now."

"If that is your command, Your Majesty. I will teach Friks everything I know and make him a high-ranking Knight of Aeros. But under one condition." Miilo said and looked at Ramala.

"What condition do you want, Miilo?" the Great Oracle asked.

"I will teach Friks how to become a knight in the special training room in the palace of Aeros. That's why I'm taking her with me," said Miilo.

"I'm afraid that can't happen right away, Miilo. Don't you know that I can't leave this floating island for too long? How about this, give me a month to teach Friks about magic and how to use the starbow. Only then he can go to the royal palace of Aeros!" Ramala offered a solution.

Miilo nodded, "Okay, I agree!"

"Then the problem of who will teach Friks how to become a knight is solved," Ramala said, turning to her maids, "All of you prepare a banquet to welcome our guests at once!"

The maids and servants of the Glass Palace nodded and immediately obeyed the Great Oracle orders.

In a corner of the throne, Longbung nodded in his invisible form. He had successfully infiltrated the floating island and entered the Great Oracle's Glass Palace without anyone noticing. He now had very important information to report to the Dark Lord Leburo.

"Lord Leburo will surely be happy to receive my report." Longbung thought.
