Ajax told the guards that were standing behind the door to let the person in. As they opened the door, Dean Agatos entered the room. He ambled over to the front of the throne and did a half-bow."Can I have a word with you in private, my king?" Agatos said calmly.Ajax wondered what he wanted to talk about, whether it was the fact that he would no longer be teaching at the academy or something else. So, he told Hudson to leave the chamber for a while and that he would send one of the guards to come and get him when his conversation with Agatos was done.Hudson went out, as it was now Ajax, the two guards standing at the side of his throne, the two guards behind the front door, and Agatos."Go ahead, tell me, what do you want to talk about?" Ajax asked. Agatos looked at the guards standing behind him as he hesitated to speak. Ajax noticed that he hesitated because of the guards as he stood up, walked over to where he was standing, and stood next to him."Tell me, what do you want to ta
"Me too; do you remember the first day we met?" Ajax inquired, raising an eyebrow."Of course, I don’t know if I remember all the details, but I do remember the encounter; you were the one that saved me from going into the academy when I didn’t have the academy seal on me," Hudson responded."Exactly. I remember telling you that I felt a strange connection between me and you, and now look at where we are today," Ajax said with a smile."We made history together and saved the city from the tyrant king; none of these would have been possible without you," Ajax added."Yeah," Hudson muttered as he placed his left hand on his missing eye. Ajax noticed the sad look on his face as he touched his eye. He could tell Hudson was hurt about losing his eye. "I am sorry you lost your eyes," Ajax said in a soft tone."No, it’s fine; you don’t have to say that; it was a small price to pay for our victory," Hudson replied as he removed his hand from the eye. Even though Hudson was hurt about losing a
"Yeah, but I hope you don’t think about it too much," Ajax muttered with a pale face. He couldn’t begin to imagine how losing an eye would feel."Of course, now let’s get to drinking," Hudson replied as he picked up the glass of wine.***Hudson staggered into a wide room that was inside the palace; it was the room in which he had been spending his nights. As he walked towards the bed in the middle of the room, he hit his leg on a couch that was at the side of the room. He could barely see clearly from the amount of alcohol he had had with Ajax. He got up and managed to get to the bed as he laid down and spread his arms across the bed.‘My time from the last mission is about to be over. I am scared of going back there like this. My mom would have a lot of questions and would be shocked and hurt that I lost an eye. I didn’t tell her anything about the issues I had with Alexander before, but I hoped she would be calm enough to understand me. It’s not like I lied about anything; I just d
***A few days later, Hudson was sitting on the edge of the bed inside the large chamber that was given to him. It was the last day of his mission, and he was waiting to be transported into the modern world. Hudson had opened all his shops back up and given the keys to workers. His business was now flowing fine inside the city, and with the help of Ajax, Hudson knew that he would expand to greater heights in the city.Suddenly, the system’s white screen appeared in front of him.[Your time on the mission is over; would you like to be transported into the modern world for seven days or spend seven days here in the magical world?]Hudson was tired of the time he had spent in the magical world and was ready to go face his family back home."I would like to be transported into the modern world," he mumbled.[Alright, prepare for transportation in 30 minutes.] After that, the system's white screen disappeared. Hudson was wearing a huge black backpack on his back. It contained 200,000 gold
Suddenly a loud knock came from the front door. Hudson stood up and went to open the door because he remembered he had locked it from the inside before. As he opened the door, he saw that it was Ajax.He was surprised to see him as he had told Ajax that he would be going back into the modern world today.“What are you doing here?” Hudson asked raising an eyebrow.“I can to tell you a few things before you leave,” Ajax answered.Hudson knew that he doesn’t have much time before the system would transport him. So he told Ajax that whatever he has to say needs to be quick and Ajax agreed as they both went into the room. They sat down on the edge of the bed next to each other.“Hudson I want to tell you that you don’t need to beat yourself up when you go back into the modern world. Just be confident and tell your mom everything that happened, I am sure she would understand, I noticed you have been feeling down since the day we had that small party in my chambers, but I want you to cheer u
"Finally, I am back home; those two weeks in the magical world felt like forever," he mumbled. With the series of events that took place in the magical world within the two weeks Hudson spent there. Hudson felt a huge relief to be back home. He wanted to enjoy the moment and relax. Even now that he is back, he suspects that no one will know that he is back until he comes out of the room.Hudson fell asleep on the bed. When suddenly he felt someone tapping him on his lap as he opened his eye. He saw that it was his mom. As Tricia saw that Hudson had one eye open and the other covered with an eye patch, her mouth opened wide."What in the world is going on? Why are you wearing an eyepatch?" She asked in a shocked tone.Hudson was taken aback by the questions, but he knew he had to answer them. He has been preparing himself for the confrontation, but now that it is here, he feels nervous about talking. He stood up from the bed, sweat forming on his forehead. He sat on the edge of the bed
Tricia grabbed his hands as she placed them down. "I forgive you, honey. I understand everything that you went through, and this was exactly what I warned you about. I knew if you expanded this much into the city, you were going to be noticed by someone and all that came through. I am just happy that he didn’t kill you and Ajax and that Ajax is now the new king," Tricia stated calmly, staring into Hudson’s eyes.Hearing what she said, Hudson smiled widely. He knew that she would forgive him, but he didn’t think that it would be this soon. Hudson hugged her tightly. "Thanks a lot, mom. I didn’t know how I was supposed to face you after everything, but thanks for understanding me; you are the best," he replied as he broke the hug."But one thing, honey, I can’t let you be walking around the city with that eye patch on your eye. I mean, how are you going to get a girlfriend with your eye like that? Women won’t like it, and I also expect you to get a girlfriend soon," she said with a smir
"There are 200,000 gold coins inside the bag and multiple gifts that Ajax asked me to give to you, I don’t know what the gifts are, and I am curious to know," Hudson said as he sat next to her."Wow! Gift!" Tricia screamed with a bright smile across her face as she opened the bag. The gold coins were all fitted inside a huge white nylon bag. Tricia placed it on the floor as she brought out the rest of the things in the bag. As she dropped them on the bed, she saw a white envelope and shiny diamond bracelets and diamond necklaces that were sparkling. Hudson’s mouth opened wide. He never thought that Ajax would pick out such a gift for his mom. He never thought Ajax was this thoughtful in picking out a gift."Awww, they are so beautiful," Tricia said with a wide smile. She was blown away by the diamonds, and from the looks of them, she could tell that they were original and expensive diamonds. She placed the necklaces on her neck to see if they were her size, and they all fitted her as
