APARTMENT JOHSON
Louis is actively studying at his desk, even though it's only early in the morning he already wakes up early and reads a book.
"The qualification test is only one month away, I have to thank Mr. Johnson for registering my name..."
Louis tapped his pencil
"If it's true that a large-scale Eastern Kingdom war will happen in five months, I should pass as soon as possible and go there, and the said ancient artifact has something to do with Awaken???"
Louis flipped through the worn old book, the termite-eaten book was disturbing Louis' studies, he closed the book and got ready to put on his long coat and hat.
"I really have to go to the library, but before that..."
Louis wrote a note
*Evelyne and Walter, I want to go to the library first...I have prepared bread and eggs, forgive me if it's already cold, I want to study and maybe come home late*
Louis then left the apartment, he walked down the quiet street, he saw a piece of paper with a man's face stuck to the wall of the street,He took the one stuck under his shoe.
"SON OF DEFENSE MINISTER WESTON WALKER FOUND DEAD MURDERED IN PAEONIA CITY RIVER"
"That's the city I went to last night, for a while...if this man is related to this Kingdom....this isn't Awaken's evil work but??!!"
Louis continued to run quickly to the library.
"I'm sure this is a warning from Ahmed and his allies!!! Does he already know the tricks of the western alliance!??, if so the war will happen as soon as possible, my chances of passing are getting slimmer but!!!!"
Louis stopped in the middle of the road
"I don't think the western alliance will take action directly, because it's not the Britannis of this government who gave the order but the Anglia Work!!! This is just a warning for the western alliance allies only, so I don't think they will attack now"
"But the western alliance should be careful from today, especially Prince Aaron, one of the important people of the alliance this time"
Louis began to walk and saw a dilapidated building that looked like it had not been open for a long time. He tried to call the people inside.
"Hello!!! My name is Louis Roosevelt!!! I am a student who wants to study here!!! Can you please open this door!!!"
"Shut up bastard!!!!
One of the residents who was still sleeping scolded Louis. Louis immediately closed his mouth "Looks like there's no one yet---" "Wait a minute..."
Louis saw the library door that didn't have a padlock, he opened it. He saw that the vast library had two floors, he was now on the first floor and the second floor was below, like an underground he went down the sounding hand.
"Looks like the old library wasn't that bad"
"So I have to learn about the Eastern Kingdom first before they become one Kingdom, I'm sure they were not under the same banner but, standing in their own homeland"
"But!!!! There are so many books!!! How am I going to find them!!!"
Louis who was talking alone felt himself being seen. "Don't hide, show yourself..."
Louis looked at the corner of the closet and saw the figure of a man wearing a robe and mask standing 2 meters from him.
"Who are you, Logan's servant???" The man moved closer to Louis,Louis didn't feel scared but calm.
"I don't know who Logan is, but earlier you were talking to yourself about the Eastern Kingdom"
Louis continued to take a small knife from his shirt pocket
"Are you Ahmed's subordinate???"
"No!!! No!!! Looks like you misunderstood!!!" The man in the cloak panicked, he opened the cloak and his face mask. Louis's reaction was shocked, the knife fell making a sound in the library.
"Golden eyes, blonde hair, his other clothes...nothing wrong!!! He!!!"
The man dusted off his shirt and smiled at Louis "Prince Aaron of the Kingdom of Anglia!!!!"
Louis screamed in terror
"Why me?!!! who has to meet him!!! Louis was about to run but he was held by Prince Aaron who was bigger than him.
"I don't want to kidnap you!!! However!!! I think you are a smart and accurate person!!!"
The rebellious Louis remained silent, he pushed Prince Aaron who was holding him. "What do you mean by the right person??? Prince Aaron sat at the long and wide table. "I dreamed that I came here and met a man with white hair, said that the war would not happen if I met him"
Sweat continued to pour from Louis' forehead listening to Prince Aaron's complaint.
"Huh??!"
"You must know, don't you??? About the death of the son of the Minister of Defense of your Kingdom???"
"Yes, I just got news by mail all over the city"
Prince Aaron put his hands on his face. "The Kingdom of Anglia, that is my father's Kingdom took seriously the death of the minister's son, it seems that it was a warning of war"
Louis was suddenly surprised, but he approached Prince Aaron "Can you...do something like delay the war longer???, I'm sure there's a reason why Ahmed is playing tug of war with your Alliance"
Prince Aaron looked serious "I've known for a long time...about the main mission of my Kingdom..."
Louis saw Prince Aaron staring down, Louis sat and faced him. "Do you know about the ancient artifact that the whole world craves??? "I heard that whoever manages to obtain the power of the ancient artifact will become powerful..."
"Stronger than Awaken???" "It seems so, but I am no longer my father's favorite child but my younger brother and my distant cousin"
Louis swallowed "That must be the crazy Duke, that Arthur William!!!"
His heart burst "So, then why did you come to this Kingdom? Do you want to make up for the old sins you committed in the Eastern Kingdom before??"
Prince Aaron looked at Louis for a long time, and did not answer Louis' question.
"The Angel Knight led under Arthur is preparing for an expedition in the Middle East, I hate to say this but a large scale war is coming in a few months"
Louis stomped on the table "That means I have to hurry up and get the position--quick??? Angel Knight what is that thing!!!"
Hearing Angel knight's name made Louis' hair rise."That must be the Anglia Kingdom's special forces...no mistake, this person in front of me is one of those people"
Louis's heart pounded Prince Aaron's eyes were sharp, seeing Louis who also seemed to have a grudge upon hearing that name.
"Angel Knight was the frontline team in the Eastern Kingdom war 10 years ago, lined up by the greatest Awaken in my Kingdom. The process of selecting Angel Knight was very cruel some participants died and some were permanently disabled. My father said that was the growth of a true warrior and I foolishly believed him ... Now I'm 23 years old, I realize I've committed a big sin.
Louis just looked at Prince Aaron who felt guilty
"I am a hero in the eyes of my people, but I am a villain in the eyes of all the people I have hurt"
Louis bit his lip.
"So your Dad told you to go to war when you were 13??? Is your Dad crazy!!! Why didn't your mom stop you!!!"
"Huh???" Prince Aaron looked at Louis with a surprised face,Louis was puzzled.
"Why is there something wrong with my statement???" "No!! No...this is the first time someone has dared to insult my father openly and it's just you"
Louis made a strange face, Then he got up and flipped through the book while talking to him.
"I suggest you make a reunion with them"
"You mean the former Angle Knight???
Louis closed his book then he smiled and nodded.
"Give me three months, during those three months, I will gather my own members, Hmm... six members is fine... I am also like that crazy Duke!!! The seven of us will go on an expedition to the Middle East!!!"
"I promise I will prevent the war from happening!!!"
Prince Aaron just watched, he saw Louis' persistence.
"But do you have the power of Awaken???"
Louis was suddenly startled and he sat down banging his desk.
"Yes!!! That's....you right!!!"
When Louis spoke alone he saw Louis' mature and calm demeanor.
"Are you really 18 years old???"
Louis immediately moved closer to Prince Aaron.
"Why am I like a troublesome and noisy child??
"Ah no!! no!!! I don't see you like that, but your strategy is very mature and makes sense..."
"Ohhh really!!! I'm actually smart from birth!!!"
Louis snorted listening to Prince Aaron's praise.
"But being smart isn't enough either, I have to find the power of Awaken...Prince Aaron, your power of Awakening is Light, isn't it???"
Prince Aaron nodded "Yes, that's my strength, I got it during the Angel Knight election, I almost died against Benson... but Awaken suddenly came when I was dying and I won"
"Benson...!!! You mean your fierce right-hand man???" Louis spoke to him in a whisper.
"Yes, Benson is my right-hand man, he is fierce but he was the first person to support me to get out of Angle Knight because Benson chose the path like me. Angel Knight is now disbanded, but after a few years it was re-established"
"So...so...Ahmed's regime will fight with Angel Knight and Special Knight Forces of every western ally???"
"It seems so, I also heard that Britannis will send a special force as well, if you think about the name..Black Tiger Knights"
Louis held back his laughter, Prince Aaron who saw Louis' strange behavior was surprised, Louis just smiled cynicall.
"What's with that weird name???,never mind I have to fight them and Ahmed!!!
"So if the 10 western allied Governments send special forces, it means they are really serious, I have to get the...artifact first!!! If it falls to the wrong people, more lives will be lost"
Prince Aaron smiled, he stood up and put his cloak and mask back on, those golden eyes looked at Louis and patted his shoulder.
"To get the power of Awakening alone is easy, it will definitely come when you really want to protect your loved ones. So Louis, we will meet at this place the day after tomorrow."
"So, well...next time maybe I'll go to Anglia myself to meet you and the former Angel Knight"
Prince Aaron smiled before disappearing as he jumped through a library window.
"I'm waiting for you with the others"
Louis sat and looked at the clock in the library while flipping through a book, Suddenly there was an old man who suddenly appeared in front of him which made him startled and fall from the chair.
"Who are you!!! Who are you mister???You surprise me I know!!!"
Louis got up and put his hand on his chest and caressed it, he took a breath, because the old man's face was cruel and disheveled.
"How did you get in???"
He pressed his body so close that Louis had to step back until he hit the bookcase.
"Ahhhh it's...me!!! I saw the door was unlocked so I came in here!!! I want to find out!!!"
"Morning like this???" The old man looked at Louis suspiciously, then he turned his body away.
"Are you going to take the entrance exam???"
The old man cleaned the dusty books in the cupboard, Louis immediately sat down.
"Yes, I will become a Historian in three months"
The old man looked at Louis for a moment "You look confident for an 18 year old"
"So what do you give me permission to come here every day???"
"That is of course..."
Louis looked happy, he tapped the table with his finger and stared for a long time.
"Do you have a lot of reading materials here???"
"Of course my library is the best in the city"
"He looks confident" Louis smiled cynically and then seriously, He saw the old man named Robert focused on packing his books.
"So...do you have a book about the civil war of the Eastern Kingdom??? About the Western Alliance Kingdom???"
Robert immediately stopped packing, he immediately closed the window and door of the library, placed a closed sign in front.
"That is a difficult reading in this Government, the original document has been burned and kept, but I have a replica"
Robert looked at Louis, who instantly became a different person to the one he was talking to earlier.
"Can I have it??? How much? payment for that???" Robert whispered to Louis "It's free just take it, I can't keep it for long, I've been hiding it for 7 years, take it but I'm not responsible for what happens to you"
"Why???"
"Yes... because the document is confidential and a secret of the Government, there is an important person who trusted me to keep it, he said he would take it back but never came, I think it's time I gave it to someone"
Louis saw Robert scared, he calmed Robert down. "Don't be afraid Mr., there is nothing wrong...why be afraid of the truth???"
Robert's face was pale and he took the old box kept at the end of the library cupboard, and gave it to Louis.
"With that, this is my declaration against the Ahmed Regime and the Western Alliance, I will eliminate all these rats and get the artifact first"
The library was dark and the wind was strong, Louis's gray eyes flashing his declaration made Robert's hair stand on end.
"Who is this young man??? who dares to fight the BIGGEST POWER THE WORLD FEARS!!!"
Louis smiled while holding the document. His long white hair fluttered magnificently.
"MY NAME IS LOUIS ROOSEVELT, A HISTORIAN"
