Oh,
A double face. In front of people, a good man but inside a black snake. This academy life will be very interesting.
"Is that all, Lila?"
"Young master, other people are from Earl and Count House... their overall strength is not good. Other Duke or Earl houses' young generation are in second year or above in the Academy."
Then I remember there is also second or third year.
"Lila, prepare. I want to tour the city."
"Master, do you want to take guards?" she asked me unknowingly.
I look at her eyes and smiled.
"With you here, do I need any guard for safety?"
"No, master. I will prepare everything."
'Kwaa... cute.'
I took out the black-red magic robe, wore it above the coat, took out my father's sword, and hanged it on my pants.
After one hour, Lila came in. This time she wore a red dress and black robe above it. She is also a Void Rank Mage; she can't always wear a maid outfit, right? In these clothes, she looks professional.
"Master, everything is ready."
"Hmm, let's go."
My carriage is waiting outside the hotel. Rakasha is also waiting with his horse beside the carriage.
"Young master, please." (Rakasha)
We both enter the carriage. Lila took her seat in front of mine. I started to look outside. It will take some time to enter the Noble District. Noble Districts are for nobles specially. You can think of it as a park for nobles. Commoners can also enter but above rank 7. This rule is specially made because nobles want to avoid commoner crowds and enjoy the city. In this district, nobles can walk around with no problem.
"Master, where do you want to visit first?" (Lila)
"Let's watch some play. I also want to buy some normal attire and a pocket watch."
I have so many clothes, but most of them are suits or noble shirts. I want some regular clothes.
"I understand, master."
We reach our expected location in an hour. It's the same, covered with a wall to avoid the crowd. Guards are waiting outside. We left the carriage in front of the gate.
A woman looks at the Ron who is walking towards the gate.
"Look, look, so handsome."
"Wah... you are right."
"Do you know who he is?"
The man beside her cursed her.
"Are you blind? Can't you see the crest on his robe?"
"So, he is the sole heir of the Inkstone Duchy, Ronald Inkstone."
...
...
Crowd started to appear around the gate. Women are shouting after seeing Ron's handsome face.
Seeing the crowd, I started to quicken my pace. After entering the gate, I sigh in relief. Then we look at the stalls and market. It's the same as the normal market except the shops and goods are of high quality.
When I am about to tour, a royal guard comes towards me and gives me a knightly salute.
"Master Ronald, there will be a luncheon in the Royal Inn at noon. Prince Elux sent me to invite you."
I knew that it would happen sooner or later.
"Ok, I will attend at the time."
"Thanks, Master Ronald. I will inform the Prince."
Then he went away.
I didn't care about why the Prince is inviting me. I will think about it when the time comes.
There are many shops: food, clothes, accessories, weapons, etc. First, I look around the market. Sometimes people keep looking at me, but I didn't care about them.
I think you already know that I am a foodie. With Lila and Rakasha, I started trying many local foods. Then we look at the clothes store. From there, I buy some casual attire for me. I also choose some clothes for Lila and Rakasha, though they wanted to stop me.
It's already noon...
"Master, you should eat your lunch." (Lila)
"Hmm."
We went towards the Inn. This is a 3-story building which is called 'Royal Inn.' Hearing this name, I am sure the Royal family is business-minded. This is literally a business chain in the name of Royals.
When we are entering the Inn, a guard comes towards me.
"Master Ronald, Prince Elux is waiting for you on the third floor."
Then I went towards the third floor.
"Master, I can enter your shadow and enter the room." (Lila)
I am quite surprised by her statement. In front of dumbstruck eyes, she entered my shadow. I can't detect her presence. But I composed myself because I am already in front of the third floor.
A man of 40 is waiting for me. I can tell at a glance that this man is the protector of the Prince. He led me towards a room. I took a deep breath and entered the room.
The room is not big; it looks like a normal room.
A same age as mine is waiting for me.
This is the First Prince of the crown, future heir of the throne. Because all the time, First Prince becomes the Emperor if he didn't do some big crime. I also know that the King quite likes this Prince, so it is likely that Prince Elux will be the future crown prince.
He is around the same height as me, with a refined above-average face with golden hair and black eyes. But his body is well-built because of his profession 'Knighthood.'
"Brother Ronald, please sit here."
"Thank you, Prince."
I sit in the front sofa.
"Brother, you should call me Elux or brother-in-law... otherwise, it will be awkward if I call you brother. For the title, we can decide when the time comes."
I also agree with that. I didn't deny his proposal.
The maid gave us two cups of tea. I took a sip.
'Hmm, quite good.'
Seeing my pleased look.
"Brother, also like tea?"
"Hmm, I like to use 'Sungrass.'"
Then we talk for some time. I have to say this Prince, or should I call brother-in-law, is good at talking.
"I have to say, brother, you two people are a match made in heaven. Both are good-looking. But it is pitiful that you two couples will likely meet three years later."
Then he told me that great grandma wanted to send a picture of mine, but when the guard reached the World Academy, the Princess had already left for the secret realm.
Truth to be told, I also haven't seen my fiancé. I think my old grandfather's brain got damaged. I didn't think much about it.
We become quite free after some talking. I also knew that the character of my brother-in-law is good. So, I talked with him freely.
"Brother, I heard that you want to take Magic Swordsman as a profession. Grandfather can't sleep for days after giving the Bodhi Fruit to the Duke."
"Ha ha... Do thank the King for his benevolence. The fruit helped me quite a bit. And yes, I am looking for a magic sword."
Yes, grandpa can't find a proper weapon for me till now.
"Brother, I suggest you to look for a custom sword."
"Oh, tell me."
I become interested after hearing that.
"There is a Divine Rank Blacksmith in the Dragon Kingdom. He is the Dwarf Race Grand Elder known as the 'Mad-smith.' He can make soul-bound swords."
My eyes lit up after hearing that. If I can make a soul-bound magic sword, I don't have to think about any weapon in the future. I am very pleased after learning this news.
"But brother, it is very difficult to make Mad Smith a custom soul-bound sword. First of all, you need his token which is very rare in the world and material is also important."
Yes, now I come out of my monologue. If it is so simple, why didn't grandpa tell me? I asked Elux,
"Then, where can I get the 'Mad Smith' token?"
"Hmm, I think your luck is good. In every 'Capital Auction,' there will be a token auctioned.
Not only Dwarf, every race has to auction a special item from their race every five years. This is the rule."
This... again this Capital Auction. I have to get the quota (invitation token) for this auction.
"Ok, I will look for an invitation token."
Hearing Ron's answer, Elux pondered for some time but didn't tell anything.
We talked for some time. He informed me about the Academy. There will be a party of nobles after the competition. It will be held in the Crown Auditorium outside the Academy. He told me that all the invitations will be sent to the respected nobles in time.
This party is to make all the nobles introduce to each other.
After lunch, I take my leave.
Outside the Royal Inn.
Lila comes out of my shadow.
"Lila, how do you do that?"
"Master, it is a skill from Shadow Demon Cat." She replied to me respectfully. I have read about it.
They are very cunning creatures. Their signature skill is shadow walking. They are perfect assassins of the night. Their claw attack is also good. They like to sneak attack. But sensory-type skills can find them.
"Interesting."
"Ok, let's go look for a shop. I want to buy a pocket watch."
Inside the antique shop.....
A old man who is around 6o, is sitting in the counter looking at a antique. He is xulac. Though big businesses run by high rank noble. Some specific shop run by families that have been previous noble lost theirs noble title for some reason. His families run this business from generation to generation.
Upon hearing the door opening bell he come out the counter. He look at the guest for some second . When he look at the young man around 16 with black red magic robe and red ruby eyes cloths , eyes flashed .A smile appear in his face. He got a big customer this time.
He remembered the crest of the Inkstone duchy. He hurriedly run towards the young man give him a deep bow.
"Heir Inkstone, I am Xulac. How can i Help you ? I can assure you that my shop have best antique and accessories you can find in whole kingdom."
At present,,
After seeing this shop keeper over reaction. I can guess he is happy to get a big fish .Whatever . It's not Like I am lacking some mana crystal.
"Hmm. Show me some best antique Watches."
"Yes young master."
He show me three watches .He tell me the specification, These are antiques of different kingdom. All of them Good I choose a gold watch with red dial.
The watch looks quite good.
"How is the price?"
Seeing that I am happy he give me an wolfish grin.
"It's 100 medium mana stone master. Though for you its 95 . I am not demanding excessive because the dial is made of 9 grade red fire eagles finger nails, In dark it gives luminous light."
I think its reasonable so , I paid him. When i was about to leave. I remember something.
"Also show me some ladies accessories."
"Yes , master."
Then he started showing me some ladies accessories.
But Ron didn't notice when he asked for ladies accessories a pink hair woman eyes started to lashing. If we dive in to his head.
'Lady...who is the lady. Whom he is going to give present. Ron..My Ronald..' (Fuc*)
...
After looking for some time . I didn't find anything that particularly attract me.
" Do you have anything except these Pomander, Chatelaine?"
"What are you looking for master , If I may rudely asked ?"
"Hmm, Like pendant. "
"Sorry master It's not that we don't have them.But those are not recommended for you."
Seeing his sincere Expression.
"Ok, No problem."
Sigh, I wanted to gift it to Lila . She will be attending me from now on. I think I really need to give her something. I come out my senses by hearing shopkeeper word
"Young master , I would suggest you to look for it in the auction tomorrow."
"Thank you."
"No problem ,master Ronald .But I would appreciate if you come in to my shop next time."
I left the shop. I will go to the Auction so I think I will get something from there.
Then we leave the noble district.
But for some reason Lila become more reserved . She giving a vibe-
Don't question me? For some reason her mood is off I didn't think much about it.
After reaching the Hotel. It's already evening . I told Lila to not call me for dinner. Then I took a bath and went to sleep.
