61 William's Royal Fleet

[5 days ago]

Aiden is standing right now at the eastern port of Alcos city in front of the Aeliana, the ship Charles gifted him. He's preparing to Board the new ship after it has been completely fixed.

Hu Zhao together with Dian Long and Edvard is on the deck inspecting the ship and looking for any problem. Edvard who is holding a bottle of whiskey is walking through the deck and looking around.

Edvard: "I must say. This ship is really amazing. I haven't seen a ship built by the wood from the tree of life in many years".

Dian Long: "Yes. The reason why it isn't damaged that much is because of the special wood. seventy percent of this ship's body is made from the tree of life wood. I didn't expect someone to still know about it".

Edvard: "Let's say that I got to see a lot of things in this place and so I know many things".

Dian Long: "Hmm?? what do you mean?"

Edvard: "...Nothing"

After Seath left the mansion, Aiden went with Dian Long and Edvard to the south side of the island to go fetch the ship. Thanks to Dian Long, they didn't take long before finding the ship and then taking it back to fix it.

Unlike the other airships, Aeliana can both sail in the sea and fly in the sky so thanks to Edvard's help who's an experienced Sailor and an excellent helmsman, it was easy to bring it back.

it became even more convenient as Edvard took it back to the shipyard through the sea. It was there that they fixed it back to its top and took the whole a whole day. they even added some new features like a new magic platform that make it able to communicate with other ships and even other harbors.

Ceaser also added the transportation magic circle that can teleport the ship instantly although it uses a lot of magic stones so it can't be used at any time.

Aiden also bought new weapons and food with the money he got from the gangs and companies he destroyed and added them to the ship. All of this so made the ship look amazing and gave it the majestic feeling when you see it each time.

As Aiden was preparing to board the ship, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind coming towards the ship.

Saya: "Aiden!!".

When Aiden turned, he found Saya and Emelia together with the friends from the adventurer guild all hurrying towards him.

Aiden: "Oh you came here? I thought that you would leave today to the empire"

Emelia: "Well, we decided to say goodbye before we leave? After all, aren't we friends?"

Lyssia: "Yeah, what's more, I know that you're trying to act cool by not saying goodbye and making us the ones who come and say it".

Aiden: "....You know I'm not a child because only little kids will do that".

Wanda: "Don't care about what she says, mister Aiden. She's always like this. Bt the way, I like your ship, it really looks amazing".

Aiden: "Of course it looks amazing. I expect nothing less from the ship I acknowledged".

Both Hu Zhao and Dian Long who're at the deck of the ship looked at Aiden as Dian Long sighed and didn't say anything. Hu Zhao, on the other hand, turned Dian Long and asked him.

Hu Zhao: "Hey, can ships be acknowledged?"

Dian Long: "..."

Konstantin looked at the ship and then smiled as he turned and looked at Aiden.

Konstantin: "It's a good ship".

Aiden: "Yeah. It's a gift from a friend"

*tap tap*

Konstantin started walking towards Aiden and he then stood in front of Aiden and smiled and took his right hand out. Aiden who saw that also smiled and also took his hand. Aiden and konstantin shook hands as they smiled.

Konstantin: "I hope we can meet again so we can have a real fight. that time, I wasn't really serious and I wanna fight you with all of I got next time".

Aiden: "Of course, I will also try my best to go easy on you".

Konstantin: "... Hahaha sure. I will also try not to hurt you with my sword too much".

*grip*

Aiden: "No need to do that. I'm sure that your sword will only be nothing but slights cuts that won't do anything at all".

Konstantin: "Oh really?!! then how about we go back and tr....."

Olenna: "Okay both of you that's enough. Konstantin, we have a ship to board and go back to the empire. The boss won't like it if we miss this airship since he sent it personally".

Konstantin: " Sigh...oaky. see you Next time, Aiden".

Abrat: "....."

Today is also the day that Lyssia, Wanda, Konstantin, Olenna, and Abrat go back to the empire. Emelia and Saya also decided to go with them to the capital since Emelia has an aunt who also works as an adventurer there.

Emelia: "Amm...Aiden".

Aiden: "Yeah....what?".

Emelia: "I decided to go with Saya to train in the empire so we can get stronger. I don't wanna stay weak all my life and so I decided to go see my aunt so she can train me".

Aiden: "Oh good for you then".

Emelia: "Yes. thank you. I'm even planning to go and apply for the Madoken magic academy next year".

Aiden: "hmmm. good then. you and Saya must get stronger so that you can hold your fate in your own hands".

Emelia: "then...after I get stronger, Will we be able to meet again"

Aiden: "Yeah, why not. of course. good then"

Saya: "..."

Aiden looked at Emelia who is really excited while Saya who didn't seem that much interested at all about going to one of the five great empires. Aiden didn't understand what is going with her.

Aiden: "Well.....before you go...how about you go and see the ship from the inside. it's quite big so don't get lost inside".

Olenna: "Oh really?! thank you. I wanna see how this ship looks from the inside. Let's go, Konstantin, Abrat".

Olenna went with the two guys while Emelia went with Lyssia and Wanda went together with Emelia. Saya decided to stay and not go since she wanted to prepare something.

the only ones who remained are Saya, Aiden, and Alex who are standing all at the sidewalk.

Alex: "Well, it's boring here so I'm going to also go and choose a room".

Dian Long: " We better also go".

Hu Zhao: "Yeah. I don't wanna be here right now".

Dian Long and Hu Zhao also noded and decided to go search for their rooms together with Alex. Now only Aiden and Saya are standing on the sidewalk.

Aiden: "So...you also wanna go to the empire, right? I must say that you did really well back on the second trial. I didn't expect anyone to be able to figure it out like that. I'm sure that you will be okay when you go to the empire".

Saya: "Thank you but....."

Aiden: "What?"

Saya: ".....The thing is I don't wanna go to the empire. I'm not really interested in going to the empire. It's Miss Emilia who wants to go and as her friend and guard, I need to follow her".

Aiden: "....well you said that you're her friend first, right? then as a friend, I'm sure that she will understand that you don't wanna go with her".

".... but".

Aiden: "But what? Just talk to her and you will see. You also have your dreams to follow, right?"

Saya: "Dreams? Yes, you're right! I have dreams. I'm going to talk to her right now".

Saya became happy and started running towards the ship and went to search for Emelia. Suddenly, Saya stopped and turned and at Aiden and gave him a big smile.

"Thank you, Aiden".

She didn't wait for Aiden's response as she started running to the ship and went to look for Emelia. Aiden just sighed and shook his head but then he smiled and looked at the running Saya. What Aiden didn't know is that what Saya really wanted is to go with him to the Kederawen kingdom.

Saya: ' I'm sure Miss Emelia will understand'.

[5 days later].

That's how it came to all the people here sitting together and eating the food together. These 12 people all gathering and having fun together.

The second prince is one of the people who also asked if he could come with them since he wanted to go to an island that was on their path. In fact, the second prince wanted to go to Baycoast island which is one of the big islands on the archipelago belonging to the Lefia kingdom so that he can reach his royal fleet.

Because of the Moxi treaty after the end of the rebellion 30 years ago, it's known that no kingdom fleet can enter the sea borders of Moxi island unless the adventurer guild branch on the island allow it.

That's why when William came last time, He came using a commercial ship from his kingdom and left the royal fleet in Baycoast island port city.

Of course, Aiden wouldn't accept him just because he's a prince. The main reason why he let him come with them is so he can interact with Saifon more since he always travels with William together.

The second prince also smiled and felt happy as he liked the atmosphere around here because most of the people here don't care if he's royalty or not just like Saifon.

AN: [By the way the 12 people are Aiden, Saya, Alex, Ceaser, Edvard, Lorra, Dian Long, Hu Zhao, Geroge(William head guard), Saifon, William, Diss].

Suddenly, The second prince felt something and then took something out of his pouch that was glowing with a yellow color. He then looked at Geroge and Saifon and all three of them nodded.

The second prince then coughed so that everyone could hear him. They all stopped chatting and looked at the second prince as he smiled and started speaking.

AhemWilliam: "Ahem...I wanna all thank you for helping the three of us and letting us come with you on this great ship. What I wanna say is that the magic item that I have is glowing which means that the royal fleet must be near and so I invite you all to come and spend some time with me on Baycoast island before you continue your journey to the Kederawen kingdom".

"...."

Everyone looked at the second prince and then took some time to think about it but then they looked at each other and finally Ceaser answered.

"Well, we can stop for some time to rest. It's been over 5 days since we left and we need to see some land. After all, only seeing the sky and sea will become boring after some time".
