019. Mission
Three days later;
Crystal pov:
After meeting up with my two best friends and spending the whole day with them, I come back to Warlock.
To be honest I was still shocked about my encounter with the male leads and the villainess.
According to the original story, the three of them ahouldn't be on good terms with Delia but that day they seem really close.
I can also see that most of the time Shinsu was a total sis con. What the hell is happening.
I don't remember the scene where they went to the magic tower. Most importantly I can't find the heronie anywhere.
What's going on why is the plot so mess up. For the last three days I have been thinking a lot.
This should be our last encounter. There shouldn't be any more interaction between us.
Anyways I don't know why but today master call me to his office suddenly first thing in the morning, WHILE I WAS STILL SLEEPING. SLEEPING I SAY.
Back to the topic, as I was saying he call. everyone to his office. I wonder what he want to tell me.
He usually never call me unless to have tea or have some kind of emergency.
First option is not a choice because who would have tea THIS EARLY IN THE MORNING.
Excuse me. Anyways here I am standing in front of the mirror, readying myself to go in.
After a while I knock. I heard a voice telling me to come in. As I want inside I saw other people. "Guys?"
Vivian pov:
Three days have already past since the day I spend time with Crystal. For the last three days I don't do anything much.
I just usually laze around or spend time with my family.bI also train with Zeck's youngest little brother.
To be sure I have become his tutor in swordsmanship. I also train the imperial knight sometime.
They seem to be amazed by my skills. Zeck usually come with Hexor too. Training can be sometime very strange.
I can feel someone stare at me most of the time. When I look back in can't see anyone else for Hexor with a red face.
I sometimes wonder if he has some kind of disease. I heard from Zeck that he gave up his inheritance to his father position.
Because of his position as a direct apprentice he can't inherited it. Magicians tend to stay away from politics unless it's completely necessary.
Magicians don't follow the king's either. Instead they are under the control of the ministry of wizard.
It's like a place where they keep everything related to magic under control.
The ministry of wizard is control by the 15 council mages, the principal of the three magic school, the three chair men and the archmages of each kingdom.
Seeing that Hexor is aiming to be an imperial knight, Hollan will inherited the Duke position.
Unless the Duchess bore another child, Hollan is pretty much the heir. Anyways yeah that's what been happening the last three days.
Today while I was still sleeping, my master call me to come back to school. He said it was an emergency.
I meet up with Zeck and head off to school. After we arrived we went straight to his office.
We knocked and went in. We saw master sitting in his desk while glaring at a letter.
Then we heard another knock. Master told the person to come in. "Guys?" I turn around to meet someone.
Zeckery pov:
For the last three days I have been spending my time on training that brat with Vi or helping Hollan study for his heir lessons.
By brat I mean my youngest brother. Really, he is just so overconfident and reckless. He is also rude and loud.
He is the polar opposite of me and Hollan. Speaking about Hollan I just give up the Duke position not too long ago.
Hexor is also simping to become a imperial knight so Hollan is the only one available for the position.
He has already started his lesson of an heir. I would usually help him. Unlike Hexor, Hollan is the calm and tactical person.
He never do anything reckless and always has a plan. He would usually look for every possibility before doing something.
I'm so proud.(Proud brother moment.) For the brat he gotten better at his swordsmanship. He's also a fast learner.
I also found out something major. The brat, my youngest brother has a crush on my best friend, the second princess, Vi.
I won't interfere but this won't end well. With Vi's family and her popularity I can already forsee the future.
My brother you will have a lot of competitors. Anyways today master suddenly call us back to school.
It seem that he also called Vi. Vi and I meet up and went to his office. After we enter another knock come as another person enter.
I could already guess who that was. I mean if master call the two us. It clearly means that 'she' will also be here.
Third person pov:
Crystal called out to the other two who was in the room with Tim. "Guys?" It was her two best friends, Vivian and Zeckery.
They turn around to face her. Vivian seem a little surprised to see her as Zeckery stay calm like he expected this.
Their master was holding a letter. "Now that the three of you are here I have a mission for you."
The three of them turn to him. Tim hold up the letter and said "A letter came from the Alfear kingdom's archmage, Archmage Luciano Deam. He said that the crown prince has disappeared over night.
This seem to be a case of magicians. The ministry would never be in part of something like this.
So the only persons who are capable of pulling such tricks are-" "-The dark magicians." Zeckery said while thinking.
"And this effect us how?" Vivian asked disinterested. Tim sigh and said "I know the three of you don't like the Alfear kingdom regrading the past with Crystal but you can't effect work with personal feelings."
"We can sent other people." Vivian said. "Luciano expecially request you three, the golden trio.
Beside this is something we can't sent just anyone." Vivian just rolled her eyes. "Fine." Crystal said which surprised her two friends.
"Bu-"Vivian was about to say something when Crystal smile at her and said "It's fine Vi."
Vivian parted her mouth to say something but close it again and stay quiet. Crystal smile at her and turn back to Tim and said "Then we will be going now master."
Then they went out of the office. Tim sigh.
Tim pov:
Today a letter came from the archmage of Alfear, archmage Luciano Deam. He said that the prince was kidnapped.
He asked MY APPRENTICE, 'MY' APPRENTICE, THE GOLDEN TRIO. Anyways I already heard about Crystal's story and about her being a reincarnated person and everything.
I would be lying when I am say I don't have resentment toward them. But as I keep reading the letter a found out that the dark magicians are involved.
That's were things got complicated. You see in the world of magic. Everything is control by the 15 council mages and the ministry of wizard to keep everything and everyone in check.
Of course there're those who resent the ministry of wizard and went against the rules.
We called them the dark magicians. It's a very dangerous people. They aways used dark and bad things to gain more power and wealth.
One time they even kidnapped a bunch kids to turn them into monsters. The ministry has been very wary of them since they suddenly goes quiet three years ago.
To think that they suddenly act up now. This is not a matter that can be handled by just anyone.
I have no choice but to sent my three children who are my direct apprentice, to Alfear.
After they got here we discuss about this matter. Vivian and Zeckery also know about Crystal past just not the reincarnation part.
Of course being the motherly friend Vivian protest. She is usually a child but when needed she can become very motherly and mature.
Zeckery only stay quiet but I can see what he's thinking. Unlike Vivian Zeckery is more of a calm fatherly type.
It's not that he don't resent the Alfear kingdom, he just respect Crystal and ready to help her with whatever she decided.
To my surprised Crystal accept. It seem the other two are shocked as well. I even thought that I have to pursue her a little.
I can see Vivian about to protest but she close her mouth again meaning she respect her decision.
Zeckery also stay quiet but I can see him clench his fist once Crystal said that.
These three are very overprotective when it comes to each other but they also respect their decisions.
