Volume 8 Chapter 33: A Beautiful Night

"What's going on?" Everyone could hear the rumbling from the sound. That caused everyone to turn to the front gates. Two loud carriages entered the gates; each one was grand and incredible. That was when the students noticed the emblems on each side.

"That's the Philosopher Kingdom." "There's also the Solis Kingdom as well!"

That was not the end: Felix and Oscar exited the carriage.

"That's the first and second prince of the Solis Kingdom. What are the two of them doing here?"

"There's also the sword saint as well!" The other side had a strong lineup as well.

"Greetings, Prince!" Isaac, the sword saint, bowed his head. With him doing this, so did the others. Alger nodded his head, "At ease."

"Brother!" On the other side were Carolyn, Tristan, and Doyle, who bowed at the two. Oscar nodded, "It's been quite some time, you three."

"Mmhmm."

"Sorry about coming here on such short notice," Oscar and Felix had come as soon as possible. Tristan shook his head, "It's fine, Oscar."

Oscar nodded as he glanced at Alger, "Hmm, this is your boyfriend. He's kinda flashy, don't you think?"

"Oscar?"

"I'm just messing around,"

"Alright, let's go back." Felix scoffed as he glanced at Alger before the group entered the academy. However, that was when they were stopped by a group of people.

"Halt, you guys can't enter the academy." One of the guards stated.

"..." Isaac and the others didn't say anything.

"To think you guys would come in such a large group," Laughter came from afar, from none other than Cadmus. Sohma and the others were behind him as well.

"Greetings, Headmaster Cadmus," Felix and Oscar bowed. Even if they were not from the academy anymore, they still had to show respect to Cadmus.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

"Hello, Cadmus," Isaac nodded.

"Principal, our parents had sent a letter to you," Alger explained. They were already given a go-ahead from this dragon.

"Of course, I have allowed this. However, that doesn't mean you can bring all these people into my academy." What he allowed was Felix, Oscar, and Isaac to enter the academy. However, he never said anything about those soldiers behind them.

"We have brought them for protection," Felix muttered. They were princes; there was no way they could be alone.

"Do you think you can say that when we're in this academy?" Cadmus laughed. As long as he was here, there was no way there would be no harm around the academy.

"Understood," Isaac nodded; there was no point in discussing this with the dragon. They were walking into his territory. Felix and Oscar did the same as well.

"Good, you three will be the ones to stay in the academy for the midterms. The rest will have to find a place to stay or leave," Cadmus didn't care if they scrammed.

"Alright," Oscar nodded as he turned to Tristan, "Let's go. We shall stay on your island."

"Isaac, you as well. You can stay in a room on the island." Alger sighed as the group headed into the island.

"We need to have a talk now," Now that everything had been settled, it was time to discuss.

"We all know what this is about, Big Brother." Doyle rolled his eyes, but that only made Felix respond with a glare. That immediately shut him up. Oscar shook his head, "You're really making a big deal out of this, Felix. This is just a simple marriage."

"This is not a simple marriage. This marriage means the union between two human kingdoms. There's a lot more riding on this than anything." Felix didn't hesitate to state this as he turned to Carolyn, "Make sure you don't mess this up."

"Felix!"

"Shut up! Do you understand how great this marriage would be if it happened?!"

"...I understand. You don't need to worry about anything; I won't shame our family." Carolyn commented.

"Good." Felix nodded as he walked away. Oscar shook his head and walked out of the room.

"..." Carolyn had a complex expression as she looked out the door.

...

"Huh? What occurred in the middle of the day?" Jack blinked.

Gabriel explained, "Both the Solis Kingdom and the Philospher Kingdom had sent people to the academy. It seemed they were finalizing the dating situation."

"That means Carolyn and Alger getting engaged is real."

"What do you mean? Wasn't she supposed to be engaged to him in the first place?"

"No, from what I heard, the two were dating. But when you think about it, engagement should also be on the table." Nobles were different from regular people. With so many restrictions, marriage and dating became synonymous with one another.

"What do you feel about this?" Gabriel's question was directed at Keith.

"Hmm? It's a good marriage. If the two of them like one another, I will support it."

"…I see." The others really didn't know what to say about this.

...

Felix was drinking wine on a dark night as he looked through the window. Outside showed the pristine beauty. As he continued to stare out the window,

"Quite a beautiful night, isn't it?" The person who entered the room was none other than Alger.

"Indeed it is." Felix sighed.

"Are you thinking about what you will do once you become king?"

When he said this, Felix's expression darkened, "Do you want everyone to hear?" They were not exactly in the most private spaces. Alger shook his head, "You don't need to worry about that. I have Isaac around here. No one is going to be bothering us."

"Still, I doubt my brothers would stand still when they heard that." Felix knew for sure.

"But once you have my support, no one could doubt you will be crown prince."

"Of course." Felix and Alger looked at one another. The two had a mutual relationship.

Alger left Felix's room, "Isaac, I need you to deal with something."

"Whatever that you wish for."
