Big day!

Akim is shocked he didn’t expect prince zarki will be at their door alone.

Kaito and akim immediately bow their heads and apologize for not recognizing the prince and talking to him with a proper honorific. Prince zarki just smiles and brush it off.

Prince zarki: dont worry about that I’m not really different from you guys. We’re just same flesh and blood I’m just a bit lucky to be born with high status family. *laughs* you can just call me zarki as always we’re friend now right?

Kaito: yes sir! Absolutely we’re honored you called us your friend.

Akim: can we use that to hook up some ladies zarki-san? “I’ll be like I’m friends with prince zarki”. *crossed arms damn right face*

*They all laughs*

Prince zarki: you are really very humorous akim, yeah you can say that because its the truth. I just came here to check on you guys looks like you are in good condition to crack up jokes. Oh one more thing you guys will be awarded tomorrow in capital plaza for your bravery and for saving my guildsmen.

Kaito: *surprised* woah that makes me nervous zarki-san that’s the only logical thing to do when you see people in danger.

Akim: yes sir! I hope you just surprised us tomorrow i bet we cant sleep well tonight knowing tomorrow is gonna be like a big event like that.

Prince zarki: *laughs* tomorrow is a big event after with about 1 million people watching because the welcome parade will be held too. You know different people from different region and areas gather to the capital city these time of the year. When the royal exploration about to start and your magic school is starting a month from the royal exploration right?

Kaito: hmm we didn’t know it got schedule like that. *laughs*

Akim: *amused* so its like one month of studying sir? its like a well thought system for us to survive the royal exploration.

Prince zarki: you got it akim i thought my guildsmen told you guys the story.

Kaito: *laughs* he did sir but on the middle of his story telling we got interrupted by literally boss monster exploding from the ground.

Prince zarki: oh i see okay ill tell you what i heard of it. Its a month studying of magic hence magic school. Every people around the continent wants to know its secret that’s why it keep on hiding itself and became a myth or legendary. Everyone want to have their own magic right? But its not that simple its a life and death struggle to be able to accomplish that.

Kaito: *surprised* so thats the point i remember he says the first magic war. That’s why it became so exclusive and hard to find.

Akim: you got magic right zarki-san where do you learn it? *suspicious grin*

Prince zarki: *laughs* you are really straightforward akim i bet you will ask that. Hmm let say i went to a place with school in it. *wink wink* okay! I think that’s it for today you guys have plenty of rest. You have a big day tomorrow.

Kaito and akim: thank you for giving us information and your time zarki-san!

*Prince zarki smiled and leaves*

Kaito: *sigh of relief* i cant breathe properly knowing zarki-san is a prince on a same room with us from backcountry casually chatting with us. Phew! He just bombarded us with information I’m very nervous what will happen tomorrow.

Akim: me too but he just let us know some useful information about the magic school. The parade will be a bomb did he just say we will face 1 million people tomorrow. I cant feel my legs right now because of nervousness we will get exposed from hundred thousand of ladies around the kingdom imagine that kaito.

Kaito: yeah but its a good exposure though. Its not like we’re being executed or something. *laughs* i cant help to think what’s our reward its the prince newly formed guild we just save that everybody is looking forward for.

Akim: you’re right i almost forget about that. That somehow relieve a little pressure did we just get rich? *gold coin eyes* *thinking about starting a harem* the possibilities are endless.

Kaito: *laughs* I don’t think he will get us that much that makes us instantly a lord. I guess it’s just one sleep away lets rest now. The thousands of ladies don’t want to see a sleepless young saviors right.

Akim: yeah lets get some beauty rest hundred thousand of girls waiting for me tomorrow i bet some will fall for me instantly. *shoved his face on his pillow*.

*they proceed to sleep but wakes up every hour because of nervousness and excitement at the same time*

The big day starts the prince’s entourage escort them to a tavern where they eat with all the exalted kaiser members. Its their first task to overcome but it became easy for them as the time goes on because they already eat and battle side by side with risking their lives. The exalted kaiser greets them and thank them for aiding then in the battle. The two young adventurer is flattered and humbled.

*After they eat*

Prince zarki: so looks like my guildsmen taking a like for you two and ofcourse me too i think you guys are built different for you age. So how about you join us? We will train you and take care of you like a family.

*The two young adventurer are shocked*

They don’t know what to they will answer to the prince because they don’t even think about this opportunity will happen in their lifetime. They sweat and look at each other with a lot of pressure weighing on them they can’t speak.

*Kaito’s heart begins to beat fast and replied*

Kaito: i don’t know about akim we just met not even 1 week together. By zarki-san i start my journey because i want to have my own guild too. When i first hear your guilds name I thought its really cool to name your own guild. I want to travel with you but i also want to have my own. Sorry but i humbly decline your generous offer.

Prince zarki: *smiled* so you want to be our rival huh.. you got s dream like mine when I’m about your age. If you say so just let us know if you need something or how can we help you. We’re more than willing to help our saviors.
