Three weeks later.
Verdana City. The Capital.
Samiel and Hazel stood in front of the Teleportation Gate, the bustling activity of the city fading into the background as they prepared for their journey.
"Alright, Samiel. You will meet with your little harem from the Ashford Kingdom after teleporting to the next kingdom. There will be a staff member from our kingdom to help you reach the last destination, and then you will meet the Dragon Riders Squad of your family," King William explained, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.
"Oh, thanks, Your Majesty." Samiel's lips twitched at the King's teasing. "I'll say hello to sister-in-law when I arrive at the academy for your sake."
"Haha, thanks..." It was the King's turn to twitch his lips this time.
Hazel stood helplessly between them, relieved that their relationship had improved significantly, or else they would be 'joking' with each other non-stop.
