Is It Okay If I Change My Wish?

After saying that, no one said anything and just stared. Darknik got flustered and blushed even more furiously. After a moment, all of the creatures cheered and chanted Darknik's name. "DARKNIK, DARKNIK, DARKNIK, DARKNIK, DARKNIK!" Someone in the crowd shouted; "All hail prince Darknik!" Everyone in the crowd repeated those words.

"ALL HAIL PRINCE DARKNIK, ALL HAIL PRINCE DARKNIK, ALL HAIL PRINCE DARKNIK!" With them chanting those words, Kainik strode over to Darknik and whispered in his ears.

"You will have to get used to this, after all, you are a prince. Princes will have to make speeches someday too, so you better get ready."

"Yes father." Said Darknik as he looked at the crowd with a gaze filled with wonder. Kainik led Darkcon, Zantz, and Darknik back across the stage and into the non-floating cube.

Once inside, Kainik and Zantz split up from Darkcon and Darknik and followed a path that led to the War Room. Darkcon looked at Darknik with a loving gaze.

"Darknik, I want you to be at your best behavior for your Sentourian Revolution party." Darkcon asserted as she led Darknik to his room. "You will be meeting many new people, and they will all be nobles, so don't embarrass yourself. There will be numerous nobles wanting to speak to you, so don't get flustered and stay calm. Also, you mu-"

"Mom!" Darknik interrupted. "I know what to do, you have told me every day for the past week! And I am not as antisocial as you think, I won't get flustered just from talking to a few people."

"Then what was that on the stage?" Darkcon remarked with a provocative glare.

Darknik's face reddened with a crimson tint, and he scurried away to his room.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

That night, many humanoids were in the Main Ballroom. The room had a purple wooden floor with a glossy finish, and many black crystal chairs with cupholders, plateholders, and runes on them. Hanging on the ceiling were large, red bats with their wings folded up.

Near the entrance were the humanoids with hooded black robes checking people for weapons before letting them in. With light seemingly coming from nowhere, many people were talking with drinks in their hand, or eating food that magically appeared on the plates.

Darkcon and Darknik walked into the room, and everyone looked over at them, the whole room falling silent. Darknik had a confident guise, thinking that there were less than 100 people so he shouldn't be sheepish.

As expected, most of the nobles crowded around Darknik trying to appeal to him, but Darkcon fended them off.

"STOP! All of you are rushing like Snit Monkeys. Be patient and come one at a time." All of the nobles stopped rushing and stood quietly in fear. Then they stepped forward one at a time to ask questions.

Most of the questions were things like; "What is your favorite color?" "What is your favorite food?" "Chocolate or vanilla?" etc.

Darknik answered all of their questions calmly and confidently. most of the nobles were impressed with how well behaved he was, as he was only five years old.

"Your son is so smart, much better than my child." The nobles gushed with praises to Darkcon.

"He's cute too, you really want to pinch his face."

"Don't forget how calmly he answered our questions, my child gets red in the face just from talking to a stranger."

"Aiee, things really become dull when you compare them to something else."

"Well, it's to be expected, after all, he is the king's son."

Abruptly, Kainik came into the room with the black hooded figures who were carrying a Giant Cake, which was a subspecies of sensen bread that was sentient, and it tastes much better than sensen bread. the only downside is that it is very rare.

The Giant Cake was trying to get out of the clutches of the hooded figures, but they tightly held onto it with rubber gloves.

"Come here, Darknik." Kainik's voice boomed across the room. " If you are the one to kill the Giant Cake, your wish will come true." A table rose up from the floor in the middle of the room, and the Hooded figures held it down on the table.

The Giant Cake looked different to everyone, as it changes its flavor to suit different people. For example, if one person likes lime cake, they will see and taste lime cake, and if another person likes coffee cake, then they will see and taste coffee cake.

Kainik handed a knife to Darknik, and Darknik plunged it into the center of the Giant Cake. The Giant Cake let out a pitiful squeak and a jiggled a few times before it stopped moving. Darknik made a wish and cut a slice of cake.

"What does it taste like?" Kainik asked with an inquisitive stare.

"Mmmmm... It tastes like upside down pineapple cake with pistachio ice cream!" Darknik answered in a joyful tone.

Kainik sighed. "You sure have weird taste." He cut a slice of cake for himself and tasted it. "Yum, monkey meat cake!"

Darknik looked at him in disgust. Soon, everyone got a slice of cake and the cake was completely eaten. Then it was time to open presents. Darknik received a lot of presents and opened them one by one. Most of them were toys and other mundane things but there was one that was a little weird.

"Ummm... History Of The World?"

"You should read it." An old lady with one horn, the runic tattoo, and 6 eyes asserted. "As long as you know your history, you won't let it repeat itself."

"Um, ok." Darknik conceded and put the book in a black diamond storage space. the diamond glowed before sucking the book inside of itself. Finally, it was time to open his mother and father's presents.

When he opened his father's present, he found a giant silver scythe that was bigger than him by 8 times.

"I will teach you the art of the scythe so you can defend yourself." Kainik declared. "After all, the scythe is the best weapon, but it is also the hardest weapon to use. Go on, pick it up. It will change according to your preferences."

Darknik picked up the silver scythe and it changed shape. Its color turned red, and it shrunk to the size of Darknik's body. It was made out of a red metal and it was very sharp. It had a curved grip made out of black leather to make it easier to grasp, and it had a coating of bright red fire on the blade.

"Cut your finger on the scythe." Kainik instructed. "It will analyze your blood and recognize you as the owner. If anyone else tries to touch it, they will die."

Darknik did as instructed and cut his finger on the blade of the scythe. The fire in the blade roared then died back down. The scythe shrunk and turned into a ring that rested on his ring finger.

"Thank you, dad!" Darknik shouted with joy. "I guess you really are the best dad in the world."

Kainik snorted. "You've finally come to your senses. Hmph, go open you mother's present."

"Ok dad." Darknik opened his mother's present after setting aside the wrappings of his father's present. inside of it was a book that read; Elementary and Intermediate Royal Magic: By Darkcon.

Darknik had a surprised expression on his face. "Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh! Thank you so much mom!"

"It's no problem sweetie." Darkcon said with a sweet smile. "I will teach you magic and all of it's secrets, so look forward to it."

Darknik peered at his mother with a questioning gaze. "Is it okay if I change my wish?"
