We spent the next few days training out in the wilds.By we, I meant that my Dad basically annihilated everything until I was level thirty.I selected a special class called ' Magic Knight' and the status menu person told me which skills to get. Among them were skills to dispel magics like illusions and to silence magic users, for some reason.It seemed like the status menu was concerned about being caught by someone.Another thing was mentioned that Vengeance hates shields and that I should avoid using them while holding it.I was also told to refer to him as Warmage.Warmage was concerned about something threatening the world. He said that I was supposed to fight it and my unknown skill was key to doing that.He started nagging me, actually. And when I got angry, he said that eventually I would be able to put a stop to the messages.He said that he was also trying to figure out what was happening as these messages weren't normal.I wanted these messages to stop and I would do anyt
Eventually, my birthday came around and I was finally a man.My Dad was happy and really proud of who I had become. I was now level 50 and my rate of increasing levels had significantly decreased.Regardless, I was feeling very strong now. Although, Warmage and his safety precautions continued saying that it wasn't enough.I had also begun to talk to Vengeance. Hey Vengeance, what are the legendary swords, anyway?[You asked me that long ago in a different way. I would prefer to tell you later... But I will speak.]I'm not sure I understand. I asked you before?[Forget it. We are known as the Deus Arms. Legendary weapons of immense power, created to safeguard all of creation. I am their Overseer and Master.]Deus...Arms...?[God Weapons.]H-hold on! What do you mean by that!?[I have said enough. You lack the ability to understand, but the one known as Warmage knows. You, specifically, are unworthy of my power, but I will continue to give it for his sake.]I see... Thank you, Vengean
After practicing for several hours, my arms were killing me.My eyelids were heavy and I felt exhausted.I was so sick of seeing myself die over and over in these damn dreams..."I just want to sleep comfortably again... Is that too much to ask...?" I mumbled to myself.I stopped swinging my sword and imagined being warm and asleep in bed... Perfectly safe and comfortable.Just the thought of not being killed in my dreams was enough to make me long for my bed.Actually, seeing myself die in so many situations had caused me to feel unsafe in general. I had begun to develop paranoia lately.I just sighed and continued training.Eventually, my father came out to join me as well. I was happy to not be alone, because I had actually felt myself being watched lately.There were times where I even woke up in the middle of the night and saw eyes in the darkness.One time, I could have sworn that I saw a hooded and masked figure.Warmage was silent on the subject, however...Regardless, I began
When we entered the throne room, I saw Duke Oswald sitting on his throne with two beautiful women standing next to him.Garmal, his...son...was sending nearby and talking to...Princess Cassandra...?She looked both annoyed and disgusted at Garmal.The Duke noticed us immediately and waved us over."Ah, you must be Mizik Iratus...and I see Cain also allowed your father to come as well. That's fine..." Duke Oswald said.Suddenly, Princess Cassandra looked over at me and my eyes locked with hers.Her expression went from utter disgust to one of pure joy as she looked at me.Then she composed herself and strengthened her posture.What was that...? Why did she look at me like that...?{I have a theORy...}The message only brought more questions as I approached Duke Oswald.Suddenly, I realized that I was staring and looked away from Princess Cassandra.Although...she didn't seem bothered by my gaze...Stupid...don't stare! That's rude! That is a Princess!"Umm...Princess Cassandra? Were yo
I opened my eyes and immediately knew I had been crying in my sleep again.Who was that woman? What was her name?Leiso?Why did it sound so familiar!?Suddenly, I realized that Cassandra had been resting my head between her breasts.My face heated up and I tried to get up, but...Her grip tightened.She was sleeping and somehow still stronger than I was.She had a death grip on me!"Haaah...Mizik...that tickles...hnn... Darling..." She mumbled.I didn't want to be rude, but I also had to...umm...Use the bathroom...!I tried more to pull away and eventually reached my arm up as an idea crossed my mind.I'll probably get slapped for this, but I need to be free...I squeezed her chest.She immediately opened her eyes."Ahn! M-mizik!? What are you doing!?" Cassandra said."I need to use the bathroom and I can't move... I needed to wake you up... " I said.I was still expecting her to hit me at any time..."Oh...my apologies!" She said.She let go of me and I slowly pulled myself out of
Over the next week of travel, I got to know Cassandra a lot better.She was the Second Princess of the kingdom, but she had been mostly overlooked.Her older sister, who was only born mere moments before her and looked completely identical, was the First Princess. Isabella Victoria Albatross.For some reason, I had very strange feelings towards that particular name...But I had no idea if it was the same person or not...Regardless, Princess Isabella was very kind to her younger sister.They were good friends. Although years of busy schedules and training to take the throne tore them apart. Cassandra was only looked at as a spare...Someone to look to if something happened to Isabella.The other members of nobility constantly bothered her for her looks and status.Many of them insulted and belittled her. They called her useless because of her family's fertility issues and even Cassandra's own lack of certain talents. The one's that her sister specialized in.Cassandra lacked certain
We were let in very easily because Cassandra had requested to see her parents upon her return prior to leaving.She wasn't looking forward to this conversation and wanted to get it over with.Cassandra quickly went over a few tips about etiquette with the royalty, and for the most part, I understood.Mainly, however, I would not be talking.As we walked towards the set of two thrones, Cassandra changed her way of walking into a graceful and well-practiced stride.I did my best to copy her in my own way.On the throne sat a man with icy blue eyes and brown hair. He had on royal attire and wore a crown atop his head.I was told that his name was King Ronald Balthazar AlbatrossNext to him was his wife, Queen Evryss Victoria Albatross.Supposedly, Evryss was from a noble house called Victoria. Which was where Cassandra and Isabella got their pink hair. It ran in the family.But they had Ronald's eyes. Evryss had dark blue eyes.I was astounded at the mature beauty of Evryss. She looked a
Cassandra led me through the castle and brought me to a room on the first floor.It was an elegant room with a large window that gave a nice view of the moat outside of the castle. Although the window was locked and had been nailed shut, for some reason.The bed was large and had a canopy above with curtains around it. I saw a bathroom on the right. And next to it, was a pair of dressers with a partition in the corner.I could see another door partially open behind the partition lead into a large walk-in closet.The carpets were a beautiful dark blue with white designs on them.In the back left corner of the room, I saw a single wardrobe sitting directly against the wall."Since you don't have anywhere else to sleep, you can join me!" Cassandra said."Umm...is that okay?" I asked."Hm? Why wouldn't it be?" "Because... Look, we're engaged! And you know... If a boy and a girl sleep together..." I said."But we've already slept together multiple times. Why is this different?" Cassandra
