“Dong Ji!”
The elder Sun called for the butler.
“Yes?”
“I have decided that it is time for you to play Royal Road.”
“I you sure? I figured we would wait until your son reached my level.”
“We don’t have time for that. With all four of them they should figure it out fairly quickly, and you need to establish a connection in both worlds before then.”
“Yes. I suppose you’re right. After all, I live to serve.”
“I suppose you do, but, um… please don’t involve my son in your preference.”

He smiled to himself.
He was still a monster.
Although it wasn’t a skill, he also had the Dragon Affinity.
He might not be able to call them to his aid, but they knew him for what he was.
The Servant of the Dragon King.
He tasted it in his mouth without saying it.
Not anymore.
He still served the Dragon, of course.
But now he served the Dragon Prince as well.
And only he knew the truth about the Prince.
A truth even his parents didn’t know.
The one secret he had kept from the Dragon.
He tasted the Prince’s Truth like he had his own name.
Part of him wished he could stay at his Prince’s side.
However he was too strong.
He could only watch from the shadows.
Jeeves was happy that he enjoyed watching as much as he did.
He wouldn’t have much fun simply easily destroying every opponent in the Prince’s way, but watching the Prince grow enough to destroy them himself…
That would be fun.
He went to find his Prince.

“Mistress! Mistress!”
“Yes?”
The first voice belonged to a small girl of low level, but the second was a booming voice. As it spoke, a tremendous sliver of fire appeared in the darkness.
“The Apostle of the Dragon has returned!”
The girl could not contain her joy. She had been a retainer for only a short period, but it was just when the Apostle returned.
The sliver of flame expanded becoming an eye, and another one appeared nearby.
“That buffoon probably doesn’t know yet, but we won’t tell him, will we?”
“No mistress!”
Finally the mistress gave the command her servant was hoping for.
“Fetch the Apostles.”
The Dragon only had one Apostle.
They had five.
They were on the same side, of course, and had never had conflict.
But if they did, the servant thought she knew who would win.
’After all, nobody could defeat five high level users fighting in concert.’
This was not an unreasonable belief.
In fact, had they fought, it was quite probably the Dragon’s Apostle would lose.
’Only a monster could stand before them.’

Far away, sitting in a field was the third of the Kings.
He was eating an apple.
He made a mental note of the location of the field, and the tree.
If anyone tried to damage it, he decided, he would destroy anyone related to them within seven generations.
It was a very good apple.
