Julius start to help Noir to stand upright after introducing to one another. Sheila starts to smile looking at both Julius and Noir. While the girl pout her face as it seems she didn't get the attention of Sheila.
"Since you've met and introduce one another. I will introduce this little one! This little girl name is Junia Von Aslantan VII. She is the 2nd child of the current Aslantan king."
Junia just look at Sheila for a moment, as she turn to look at both Noir and Polpo. Junia start to greet them noble-like and properly with her head down.
"My name is Junia Von Aslantan VII, I am the daughter and the 2nd child of the king of Aslantan. I'm not sure who you are but nice to meet you anyway." Junia said with a smug face, as Sheila punch her lightly on the head.
"Ouch! What was that for Ms. Sheila?!"
"Your manner never change at all hmm Junia... But I'm kinda glad for that haha!"
"I apologize Ms. Sheila. Her manner is difficult to change... I, as her brother shall take the punch!" Julius said confidently.
"Oh shut up! You're gonna tear up again when I punch you just like back then."
"I'm not a kid anymore Ms. Sheila!" Julius said as he pout.
"Hahaha! Well I'm glad you're alright now. Also these 2 kids are my disciple. Noir Bolevante and Polpo Easton!"
Both Julius and Junia is shocked and shouted at the same time.
"WHAT?!"
"Ummm.. Heheh.. Nice to meet you all?"
Julius eyes began to gleam "That's amazing! You are Ms. Sheila disciple?! Even back when I was a kid Ms. Sheila never trained me personally! No wonder that bandit leader is nothing to you!"
"Ahahah... Well.. It's all thanks for Polpo... If it were only me then... I would've failed..."
"No! There is plenty of sword everywhere, I know you can beat him by yourself Noir. You are smart Noir!"
"Hahah... Thanks Polpo, though I could never throw that sword as hard as you hahah..."
Polpo face began to flustered as his bear ear goes down like a puppy being flustered. Polpo cover his face in embarrassment. Sheila approach Noir and stare at him for a moment.
"So, what did you do this time to beat this guy?"
Noir face sweat for a moment as he began to open his mouth "Well... I realize that the armor activate a tier 3 fire magic when it's touched. But it seems the armor doesn't protect the user physically well like normal armor. So I told Polpo to chuck his sword at him and it pierce him, and of course activated the spell..."
"And then...?" Sheila said as her face gotten closer to Noir.
"Well with the smoke I use the leap of magic spell twice and dash right in fr-
"Wait twice?! Like you use 2 magic circle on the same spot?!"
"Uhmm.. Yes... Is that.. Bad?"
"Hmmm... It's not that it's bad... But I never seen anyone do that before haha! Interesting... Go on?"
"Uhmm... After using the leap of magic twice at the same time... With the help of the smoke, he won't notice me getting closer unless I am right in front of him... Soo then I punch him in the face with the brass knuckle and fire and of course flow of ether..."
"Wait.. The tier 3 magic didn't activate?" Sheila said as she tilt her head.
"Well... Earlier I uppercut him the same time Polpo charge with me... So..."
"Wait! Does that mean the armor didn't protect his face?!" Polpo asked with a shock face realizing it.
"Yes... It seems the armor only protect anywhere else except the head... So I punch him as hard as I could... And that's it..."
"Wow! That is amazing! I never use my magic that way.. Truly a revolution way of using magic, even a tier 1 magic is very strong if used effectively.. Amazing Mr. Bolevante!" Julius said as his eyes gleam looking at Noir.
"Wonderful haha... Anyway we should head to the capital now, I've tell our carrier to go this way, so you two royalty kids can go home and me and these other 2 kids can go with my plan..."
Polpo and Noir start to gulp as they have a bad feeling about it. They all start to turn around and goes for Sheila carriage. But before Noir and Sheila went inside the carriage, a horse steps can be heard very close behind them.
The hooded figure that Sheila saw finally reach all of them. Sheila prepare her hand to draw her weapon as the hooded figure goes down from his horse. The hooded figure starts to approach them slowly as each step became louder and louder.
"What do you need?!" Sheila shouted as she put her hand on her rapier, ready to swing her rapier.
The hooded figure began to take off it's hood revealing a handsome sharp face. Sheila drop her stance and seems to be in a state of shock.
"Noir..." The man said lightly.
As even Noir seems to be surprise by the sound. Noir turns around to see a very familiar face, that he hasn't seen in years. Noir eyes widen looking at the man as the man approach Noir and stand right in front of him.
"... Brother..." Noir said quite surprised.
"... Nolan..." Sheila said at the same time.
"It seems fate truly want us to meet... Am I right?... My dear brother... Noir.." Nolan Bolevante said as he stand right in front of Noir towering him.
"Uh.. Ah... Brother... Long time... No see..." Noir said as he looks up to Nolan face nervously with sweats all over his face.
Nolan stare back at Noir with a cold expression "Indeed... Long time no see..."
Nolan turns to look at Sheila "So you must be... Ms. Sheila Rakshana... Noir instructor..."
"Ah yes.. My name is Sheila Rakshana. It is nice to meet you again Sir. Nolan Bolevante..." Sheila said calmly as she bow down to greet him.
"It is a pleasure to meet you... Ms. Sheila Rakshana... Anyway... What are you all doing here..." he looks at Noir "And why is my brother... All beaten up..."
"Ah there is some bandits that attack the royal family... And we merely stumble upon them and Noir and Polpo save them..."
"... I see... But what I ask is What are you doing here... Aren't you two suppose to be at home...?"
"..." Sheila didn't answer for a moment, but as she began to open her mouth to speak.
"Don't answer... The royal family is priority... Let's get them safe first... The kingdom send me to escort the royalty back safely..."
Nolan turns around and went to ride his horse once again. As he gesture his hand to the carrier to follow him, the horse turns around and start to walk. Noir face sweating bullets like he fears his brother. Sheila glance at Noir for a moment as she pat his head.
"Alright... Get in Noir..."
Noir just nod as he began to walk inside the carriage. Noir sits down without saying a single thing as he only looks down sweating. Polpo stare at Noir for a moment as he look out the window of the carriage. Polpo glances toward Nolan as he turn back to Noir.
"Is Noir... Fear his brother???" Polpo said inside his mind as he tilt his head in confusion.
Sheila went beside the carrier as the carriage start to move. Sheila face is sweating as she keeps on staring at Nolan. Nolan throw something at Sheila, as she tries to catch it.
"Use that on my brother..." Nolan said calmly.
"Alright..."
Sheila inspect the item that was thrown at her and it seems to be a potion. A green colored potion with a tag 'Healing Potion' written on it. Sheila open the carriage front trapdoor and toss it to Noir.
"Use that to recover some of your injuries kid!" Sheila said calmly as she close back the trap door.
Polpo went over to Noir to see the potion that was given to Noir "What is that?"
Noir inspect it for a moment "It said it's a healing potion..." Noir said as he gulp the potion entirely.
As Noir felt a sudden pain all over his body, as the injuries he had all over his body starts to patched up. But Noir held his scream as pain surging all over his body. Sheila smiles proudly on the outside.
"Heh.. That kid didn't even screamed... Healing potion patch up your injuries but the pain is worst than the injury itself... That kid has slowly grown more and more.." Sheila said inside her mind being proud of Noir.
As they began to travel again to the capital of Aslanta continent, being escorted by someone unexpected by Sheila and Noir. 4 days pass as in the morning they finally see the capital from afar.
"We're here..." Nolan said calmly still riding his horse looking at the capital from a cliffside.
