Once out of the palace, Harry let out a deep breath. "It's such a pain to be famous."
Ha ha..... I totally agree with that, Master Harry. I totally do." Remus said with a knowing smile.
"Well I will take my leave. Daisy would you like to come to home or go to your quarters at the university?" Remus asked. "I will head back to our quarters grandpa." Daisy confirmed.
Ok then see you later dear. He then turned towards the young men. " Lads, I believe its better you spend an extra day at the smithy every week rather than at the university. What say you, Master Harry?"
Harry slowly noded his head. "I believe there isn't much of significance that you can learn from the university. Concentrate on weaponsmithing for now. I will arrange for unristricted access to the a.... few restricted libraries from next week." Harry agreed to Remus's suggestion.
All six of them noded in agreement. And Remus took the road to his house and remaining started to ride towards the university.
................
It had been almost two year since the assassination attempt made on the King and the Queen. At last the person behind the assassination attempt was found after six months.
It turned out to be a person from a branch of the Goldwin family itself. Even though his chanches of becoming the ruler of the Kingdom was pretty slim, after his capture it came to light that, he had planned to eliminate everyone from the Goldwin bloodline.
His titles were stripped, land and assets now under King's control and was executed by hanging infront of the public.
As time passed by, everyone found out that, like Dave, Daniel was also a witty guy, with a great sense of humour. This made him bond with the group much easier than anyone had expected.
The group of Nine had expaneded to twelve now. Daniel, Bella and Daisy were now members and an intergral part of this extended family.
Now a days their main hangout place was Master Remus's smithy. Where the men including Rodrick and Daniel started learning the weaponsmithing and the ladies were found either assisting them or having girl talks or sharing gossips.
Remus was over the moon to have so many young people along with her granddaughter. Usually Parents or grandparents would be a bit worried to let their young and beautiful daughter's near young and handsome men at that age. But, this group of people were different. He knew there were two future pairs in it but, there was no lust or vulgar body language that he had noticed.
Honestly, even if his grand daughter were to fall in love with anyone of these guys he was more than willing to give his blessings.
And after the work at the smithy, they used to be at the Royal Palace. All of them were
welcomed at the Royal Palace by everyone with open arms. The King and the Queen were thrilled to have the group of these young people around. Like Remus they also had the same feeling towards these young men and were even happy for their children for finding someone whome they could trust without any reservations, as they themselves had Harry for them.
Even with the restrictive band Alan and the other five were getting stronger day by day. They had reached at 50% of their original strength after the inital year. And now after more than two years, it mostly was useless on their wrist. It was just a piece of jewellery now. But their strength were atleast doubled due to the band they used.
Their strength amazed everyone who knew them and Harry started sparring sessions with his disciples when they were at the Royal palace's private training grounds. During these times, the Generals, commanders and other weaponmasters including the King and the Queen would often visit their training sessions.
They started to observed that anyone of Harry's six disciples, could easily hold their grounds against him without breaking a sweat in the inital year.
This truely amazed them and even earned all six of them the respects from the King, the Queen, the commanders, Generals, the weaponmasters and even the personal guards of the Royal family.
Harry even had given an account to the King and Queen about his disciples and the four years of adventures that they had. He didn't gave them the complete account of course.
As expected, The King and the Queen had expressions of Horror and awe on their faces after hearing Harry's tale and knowing about the places where they had been to train.
The King and the Queen even had a trip to the edges of misty mountains with Harry and the group of young people against Harry's pestering, almost two years after their assasination attempt.
The king's personal guards and the soldiers were ordered to wait outside the forest against their unwillingness and protests.
Queen Maaya, Bella, Daniel and Daisy were actually found shaking with nervousness as it was their first time entering Misty Mountains region.
Within a couple of hour into their peacefull journey, they felt an oppressive aura and such killing intent that, the first timers and even the King was shaken to their core.
"Everyone, calmdown and don't panic. Its our Alan's girlfriend and her daughter." Dave said with such a straight face that those who didn't knew about the matter were shocked to their core.
Immediately everyone's gaze went towards Alan. Daniel asked in shocked disbelief "Al, you have a girlfriend and a daughter too..!!!?"
Harry, the other boys, Lilly and Irene started laughing so hard that, it was a challenge for them to stand. Dave and other guys were literally rolling on the ground laughing and holding their sides. Suddenly a huge black shape pounced on the guys on the floor, almost making the newcomer's heart jump out of their mouth in terror.
Hey cut it out you rascal, " Williams started to rustle and roll on the ground with the black creature.
Once their movement slowed down, they saw the silhouette of a huge and powerful black Panther.
The Queen and the other two ladies who were seeing it for the first time screamed in horror.
The Beast turned its gaze towards them almost making them pee. "Cut it out Blacky, they are our friends." Alan walked towards the Panther who was jumping and licking all the others out of pure joy till that time.
Another slightly bigger Black Panther came from the shadows of the trees. It was a bit dignified and came straight to Alan and started licking him, and the second one also joined her mother and started to lick Alan.
"Hey cut it out, it tickles." Alan started laughing, trying to avoid the two beasts.
"That's Al's girlfriend and her daughter." Williams pointed at the two beasts and explained to Daniel and others about, how they met the Black Panther.
