Later at school, Jihu gives Sunz the book about clan history Sunz then skimmed through it a bit then said: “ didn’t expect that the book has pictures”.
Jihu: Yeah the books were given to the kids for them to be inspired or just something they can read.
Sunz continue to skim through the book while talking with Jihu
Sunz: Does every clan's ways of teaching the kid differently, like training them to become the clan soldier or just training so the clan doesn’t go extinct?
Jihu: Well a bit of both but more on the soldier side just so they wouldn’t get wiped out by other clans.
Sunz: So which clan is the strongest of the 4 fire, earth, water, air
Jihu: Well Fire is the strongest they tried to conquer the other 3 clans but Water and Air worked together and held off the war. While Earth is the weakest they aren’t even participating and we haven’t heard any from them since, like no information at all.
Sunz: So are you guys on good terms with the Fire clan?
Jihu: The funny thing is that during the war the Fire clan didn’t want to conquer any clan at all, they just wanted to battle against other clans.
Sunz: What the hell why didn’t they do a tournament and ain’t war lead to many casualties?
Jihu: Are you getting angry about this?
Sunz: No it's just negatively confused.
Jihu: OK long story short the war was caused by the Fire clan and ended also by the Fire clan. So the war was only included the royal family of each clan and the Princess of the Fire clan wanted to test out the other family's strength by kidnapped one of each family's precious prince or princess and sending a letter with an offer on it ( If you want your precious family member back then sent your best sword man in the family to face me. Also no adult. Teenager only). Then the best sword man from each clan was the prince of the family heard about this then traveled to the Fire clan to save their family member.
Sunz: OK the Fire Princess must have something up her sleeves or dress right!
Jihu: Yeah she uses daggers instead of sword and she started her own clan called the “Phoenix Flower” which is made up of assassins with fire-healing abilities.
Sunz: So she literally evolved the Fire clan and is the “Phoenix Flower” still exists.
Jihu: They are and are the best healing clan overall. So the Princess wants to see if she can evolve the other clan.
During the battle she dominated the two princes, they lost without being able to do any damage against her. She then insults them with “ A clan without progress should be wiped off the map. So go home and wait for your cousin's coffin then your clan will be next.”
The prince feels insulted, ashamed, and powerless, but they both agree that they rather die here than wait for someone to claim their head. Suddenly something inside the prince tells them to change the clan fighting style, the Air clan should be more like the Fire clan while the Water clan should be more like the Air clan.
The Princess lets out a maniacal laugh as she looks back, seeing the Air clan not as a gust of wind anymore but as a tornado with the prince being the eye of the storm, for the Water clan the water covering the sword has been evaporated, instead the sword keeps on releasing steam and when he stabbed the sword into the ground the clear arena now being covered in smoke.
With the Prince awakening their clan skills, they are still no match against the Princess, now with each dagger stabbed into their heart the Princess asks them “How does it feel creating your own skill? Fun, or sad that with your new skill, both of you can’t defeat me.” Then one of the Prince spoke up “Didn’t we just show you that we can evolve after all, Doesn’t any of that mean anything.”
The Princess then ripped the dagger out of the other prince's heart and as the blood dripped from the dagger onto the (Talking) Prince’s face she said “You may have evolved but your people will never see it”, as she ripped the dagger out of the Prince’s heart, with both hands grabbing on to her arm he begs “Please lets me see her once last time”, she leans closer to him and whispers “You will see her soon” as the dagger being pulled from his heart, the last thing he saw was the Princess laughing maniacally.

After that when the Prince opened his eyes he saw his sister next to him asking “Did we die”, all he could do was cry while hugging his sister and saying, “I’m sorry, I couldn’t protect you from her.”
The sister then speaks up “You mean the girl who just saved you, brother.” The Prince then paused looked around and saw the Fire Princess drinking tea in the most elegant way. The Princess looked at him and said “You finally awake my Prince.” then she walked out leaving him with “I’ll let you two catch up.”
His sister then asks “Why are you crying is it because I didn’t come home, I’m so sorry the nice girl said that I need to stay here for a while because it will help our clan.” The Prince said, “You don’t have to sorry, I was only worried about you.” The two then talk about what happened in the past few days but the Prince didn’t mention anything about the battle to his sister. After the talk, the Prince tells his sister to stay here for a bit while he talks with the Princess. When he gets out of the room he sees the Princess leaning against the door eavesdropping.
Princess: Why aren’t you taking her home yet? The other guy had already gone home.
Prince: What do you mean by that, I have so many questions about you and your actions. What is wrong with You?
Princess then put her finger on his lips and said: If you really want to know more then take your sister home and come back, if you want. I just don’t want kid to interfere with our fun.
The Princess then walks away. The Prince then tells his sister it's time to go home, he takes the horse that the guard has prepared for him and rides back to the Water clan.
When he comes back he was seen as a hero who stops a could be deadly war. As nightfall, the whole clan celebrates the victory of the Prince but for him, all he could be thinking about is the Princess. Suddenly his friend out of nowhere tells him to join them for a drink, but he declines saying that he’s not in the mood for drinking. The friend then said, “Come on man today is your big day if you don’t do it today, tomorrow you’ll regret it.”
The Prince repeats the phrase “If you don’t do it today, tomorrow you’ll regret it”, he then thanks the friend and tells him to keep celebrating without him because he has something urgent. The Prince then hops on the horse back to the Fire clan.
While he is traveling back to the Fire clan the Princess is teaching members of “Phoenix Flower” how to use fire for healing. The Prince arrives at the Fire clan after hours of traveling, he then says that he needs to have a talk with the Princess.
The guard said that he had no authority to talk to the Princess, luckily one of the Princess’s maids walked by and told the guard to let him through because he was the Princess's guest. The guard did as told (They’re scared of the Princess), the maid then took him to the Princess’s room. Even though it's already passed midnight the Princess’s room is still full of light, as the maid opens the door the first thing he sees is the Princess sleeping on the table with a dagger stabbed in her arm. The maid walks over to the Princess and gives her a good slap waking the Princess up.
Princess: Am awake, what time is it?
Maid: Princess I told you many times to go to sleep after teaching and remove the dagger pls it’s not common for your guest to see THIS.
Princess removed the dagger, looked around the room, and saw the Prince she said: This is not the perfect time to talk, you heard what she said I need my sleep.
Prince is annoyed: Then what am I supposed to do, you said if I want to talk I need to travel back immediately.
Princess: I said that “If you want to talk then you need to come back” but I didn’t say immediately.
The Prince started to lose his balance then the maid said: I can prepare a room for you, we have many to spare.
Before the Prince can thank her the Princess says: You don’t need to give him a room, if he had traveled this far then I might reward him to stay in MY ROOM.
The maid then walked out, and before closing the door she said: “You both are adults now.”
There now only the Prince and the Princess alone in the room past midnight.
Princess: You been traveling all day why don’t you lay down first then I’ll be beside you.
Prince: What kind of charm did you cast on me? Back in the village, I was always surrounded by girls, being asked to marry them those whom I had seen every day for many years. But why you only one day you already made my feelings complicated?
The Princess then carried the Prince in her arm put him on her bed then lay next to him.
Princess: Maybe it's my look, my flatness, or even my unique personality that makes you want to earn me. Not some gift you received but a prize you want to earn.
Prince sighed: What if all of this was a mistake, even though you know what’s on my mind? Maybe I should wait or change my prize.
Princess smirk: Well if you going to refuse your prize then I’ll force you to accept it. Just like you, I saw something in you that made me care, someone who can balance me out and be my voice of reason. You are allowed to take your prize or I’ll force you to take it.
Prince: You got me into this then you must take full responsibility.
Princess takes off her clothes: Let’s see how long can you last when I’m taking the lead.
Later in the afternoon, the same maid from before came to wake the Princess up.
Maid: Princess it’s time to wake up.
Princess sat up raised her arms in the air and said: I have a husband now.
Maid: Congratulation Princess, and Prince how do you feel about her?
Prince: She was a monster how can her body do things normal can’t?
Maid: She is special after all.
The Princess then hugs and kisses the Prince then whispers: Your parent gonna be so mad.
Later on, they get married.
