For Investigation

          "Are you sure that they are going to hold on to their end of the bargain, my lord?" his butler asked as they reached their destination.

          "There is no need to doubt her Herbert, we know her identity. There is no chance that she will do something that will harm her savior. The Royal family of Luminus are like that." Aurie persuaded.

          "But still, there is still room for doubt, my lord." He added and Aurie looked at him with a blank expression, signifying that he no longer wants to talk about the matter.

          "I apologize."

          "We should continue with our act. We are entering a place that I am well known as the trash of our family so I should act like one. Forget about that Herbert." Aurie said with a stern tone.

          He finished what his father had told him to do and left to travel back to their manor.

          "What are your thoughts about the magic weapon, my lord? I personally think that is very dangerous for them to be roaming around with such weapons in hand."

          Aurie agrees with what Herbert said but still could not think about anything since he had already sent  the magic weapon to someone for investigation.

          "This is not our work at the moment. Let's just wait for their result of the investigation."

          At the same time,

          "Master, this arrived just now." A man wearing a mask said as he hands over a cloth to the one sitting behind the table.

          "Where did this came from-!" just seeing the aura surrounding the cloth made the man realize who it is from and takes it immediately.

          "I have sent this for you to investigation. His highness, the king should know about the appearance of weapons from the Kaztek, mere robbers have possession of the weapon, there are others here as well but I have already destroyed them. That one, is the only proof of my claim."

          The man sitting behind the desk immediately rise up from his seat and walked out of the room. "If the lord sent this then it must be important. We should take care of it immediately." He said to himself as he knocks on the door on the first floor.

          "Open up, the lord gave us an assignment."

          BAM!

           The door suddenly opened and revealed a man with a huge scar above his right eye and gave him a stern look.

          "Are you sure about that?"

          Without a moment of hesitation, the man showed the cloth that was sent to him.

          "That certainly came from the lord. What is it? What should I do?"

           The two looked at each other and without a single word, the man handed the clothe to him and then walked away.

          "So that's what I should do huh? I guess this is on me." The man inside the room also left a few seconds later.

          Meanwhile inside the Luminus Royal Palace,

          "Are you sure about that claim Samantha? You know full well the consequence if your claim happens to be wrong right?"

          "Don't be mad at her about that Frank, based on what she said. It is highly possible for the Kazteks to do something like that. We all know that they have been laying low for a long time now. If that is indeed true, then that only means they still plan to take over and conquer other nations. This is a big problem no matter how I look at it. Mere thugs have such dangerous weapons will pose as a threat to our nation and the other surrounding nations as well."

          "But father. We cannot be sure that it is indeed the works of the Kazteks. We don't have enough proof." Her brother insisted.

          "Frank, if you insist because of your plans to marry one of their princess with possibility of putting everyone else in danger then you cannot hope for me to back you up. This concerns our nation as a whole and if you cannot even think about something simple as that then I'm afraid that I cannot let you lead our nation in the future."

          Her brother looks at her nastily and then walks out of the room in disappointment.

          "I am sorry about that Samantha. I have kept you here for too long even after your terrible journey when you should be resting. We will continue this discussion tomorrow. Please find me a time later, you may excuse yourself now."

          Lady Samantha walks up to her father and kissed his cheeks and before leaving, her father asked her about the identity of the person that saved her.

          "Who is the one that saved you? We should reward him for saving you."

          "That is what I want to do as well father, but he wanted his identity to not be disclosed. I asked to give him a reward and he insist that keeping his identity a secret is the reward that he wants." She responded.

          "Him, huh? Looks like he is an interesting young man. It looks like he did not only saved you but also captured your heart, huh?"  he said with a smile that made Lady Samantha deny his claims.

          "What are you saying father. There is no way I would be like that! I only met him once!" she insisted.

          "I know a girl who is in love just with a glance. But if you insist then, I guess I was wrong." He teased that made her go out of the room while pouting.

          "Heh~ so someone manage to capture the heart of my princess huh? I will be sure to find that man and thank him personally."  He said to himself with a smirk.

          "What in the world? Is someone talking about me?" Aurie said as he rub his arms.
