MATCHMAKING

Arga is a genius doctor from the year 3000. He is very famous for his genius. Almost all diseases can be cured. Because of his genius he was called the god of medicine.

However, due to a god's mistake, he died from being struck by lightning at a young age.

He remembers nothing but his skills in medicine. He thought hard to try to understand the situation he was in.

After thinking hard for so long, the memories of the previous owner of the body began to emerge. The owner of that body is called Xiao Tian, the lazy prince of the lightning kingdom, who is hated by all nobles and people because of his behavior that likes to sleep with servants, and never wants to practice martial arts.

Xiao Tian is the only prince of the Lightning Kingdom, but he is not interested in politics and martial arts, only interested in Alchemy (medicine). Nothing can persuade him to give up his hobby. Until one day, he almost died from being attacked by wild animals because he went to the forest alone to look for medicinal plants.

There should be no wild animals in the forest around the kingdom, therefore he can roam alone without an escort. He was only equipped with a sword that was stored in the space ring in his right hand just in case. No one thought that he would experience such a tragic event that he had to lose his life because of being pounced on by a wild animal. The tragic incident that happened to Xiao Tian is still a mystery.

After understanding the situation, he went to sleep because it was already night, and his body still ached.

"I'd better sleep first." Xiao Tian said

***

The next day Xiao Tian woke up from his sleep. His body didn't hurt like last night. Stretching his muscles he said,

"Ok, so now my name is Xiao Tian."

"I almost died from being bitten by a wild animal yesterday afternoon"

"According to the memories of the previous body owner, in that forest there shouldn't be any beasts, this is really confusing."

"It seems that someone intends to harm this body, but who?" Xiao Tian muttered.

While he was deep in thought, he heard someone knocking on his door. To find out who was knocking on his door, he said, "Who is it?"

After that, a young man's voice was heard from behind the door.

"Servant of Taiwu, His Majesty summons you to attend the banquet hall."

"Okay, tell dad I'll be there after a shower." Xiao Tian said.

"Yes prince, I will pass it on to Your Majesty."

"Is there still a message the prince wants to convey to His Majesty?" Taiwu asked.

"No, that's all." Xiao Tian replied.

"Then I say goodbye to myself." Connected Taiwu from behind the door.

After Taiwu left, Xiao Tian left the room to clean himself in the bathroom. After bathing, Xiao Tian went to the banquet hall to meet his father.

Xiao Tian's father is called Xiao Zhaoye, He is the king of the lightning kingdom. A king who is not respected by the people and other officials for spoiling his son too much.

Banquet hall

"Why did dad call me?" Xiao Tian asked.

"Sit down." Xiao Zhaoye continued while pointing downwards.

"Okay dad." Xiao Tian said politely, Because he is still not used to his condition.

Seeing Xiao Tian being so polite, his father smiled and said.

"Looks like after yesterday's accident, you've calmed down a bit huh."

"Good, I hope this change of yours lasts forever." Xiao Zhaoye said.

"I'll try to keep my attitude as it is now." Connect Xiao Tian.

"Good, you look like a prince now."

"Father just wanted to tell you that Princess Jia Li is coming here." Xiao Zhaoye said with a serious face.

"What is he here for?" Xiao Tian asked.

"Son, have you forgotten your matchmaking?" Xiao Zhaoye asked.

"Ah I just remembered, am I going to marry him now?" Xiao Tian replied.

"You are always impatient when it comes to Princess Jia Li. Unfortunately he's not here to get married now. But to discuss when the time is right." Xiao zhaoye explained as he shook his head.

"Oh." Xiao Tian said.

Not long after, a handsome young man who looked to be about the same age as Xiao Tian entered the banquet hall. The young man was Taiwu a personal bodyguard of prince Xiao Tian.

"Greetings Your Majesty, Princess Jia Li and her entourage have arrived." Taiwu said while saluting.

"Let them in!" Xiao Zhaoye said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Taiwu stepped out of the room to pick up Jia Li's daughter's entourage.

Xiao Tian kept dreaming about Jia Li's daughter whose beauty kept flashing in his mind. Based on previous memories, Jia Li's daughter was the first love of the previous owner of the body.

While he was dumbfounded at the thought of the beauty of Jia Li's daughter, a mysterious voice suddenly sounded in Xiao Tian's ear.

"Xiao Tian You better refuse this matchmaking!" mysterious voice that sounded in Xiao Tian's ears.

"What's that sound, huh?" Xiao Tian thought.

"I am the God of thunder. Don't worry no one can hear me except you. I speak through my mind." Say the God of Thunder

"Ah I remember you were the one who killed me that time, why would I trust you." Xiao Tian said in his heart.

"By the way, this kingdom's name coincides with the Lightning Kingdom, does it have anything to do with you?" Xiao Tian asked.

"It was just a coincidence, you should have lived as an ordinary person and away from danger. Being a prince is a mistake, many are aiming for your life because they feel you are useless." replied the god of thunder.

"Oh are you a careless god? Why always make mistakes?" Xiao Tian said in his heart

"The one who threw you was the Heavenly Emperor's Wife. He was the one who messed up everything, and I was in trouble because I had to clean up all his mistakes," said the God of Lightning.

"Then how do you fix it?" Xiao Tian said in his heart.

"There are two ways, either to kill you and bring you back to life, or to guide you until you become strong and can take care of yourself." The God of Thunder replied.

"Then I'll choose the second one."

"By the way why should I refuse Princess Jia Li?" Xiao Tian asked in his heart.

"That's because, she was the one who ordered people to release tigers in the forest, so that you would be harmed." replied the god of thunder.

"Why did she do that?" Xiao Tian said in his heart.

"Because she doesn't want to marry you!" Said the god of thunder.

"Why didn't she just say it?" Xiao Tian asked in his heart.

"Because she is from a small kingdom, And afraid of the power of your kingdom!" The thunder god replied in annoyance that Xiao Tian asked so many questions.

"Xiao Tian!" said Xiao Zhaoye as he patted Xiao Tian's back.

"What's the matter, dad?" said Xiao Tian who just realized that he had been daydreaming.

"You've been daydreaming and not listening to us. Princess Jia Li kept calling for you from earlier!" Xiao Zhaoye snapped.

Xiao Tian didn't hear them as he focused on hearing the thunder god's voice. After hearing his father's words, Xiao Tian glanced at Princess Jia Li.

Princess Jia Li looked so beautiful and charming, but Xiao Tian wasn't attracted to her any more because of the thunder god's words. He stared at her intently, ignoring Princess Jia Li's father sitting in front of him.

"So this is Princess Jia Li, she is indeed beautiful, the owner of this body should like her. But unfortunately his behavior does not match his face." Xiao Tian thought as he looked at Princess Jia Li with a condescending look.

"How dare he look at me with that look, I will do everything I can to finish you off!" thought Princess Jia Li

"Oh Prince Xiao Tian, I am here to discuss our matchmaking." Princess Jia Li said with a smile.

"Sorry, I think, it's better if we just end this matchmaking." Xiao Tian said.

"What do you mean?" asked Princess Jia Li.

"Am I not clear enough?" Xiao Tian asked.

Princess Jia Li was silent because she did not understand the meaning of Xiao Tian's words.

"I reject this matchmaking, just pretend this matchmaking never happened." Xiao Tian said.

"Hey kid what did you just say?"

"Aren't you the one who always asks to be paired with her?" asked Xiao Zhaoye who was surprised by Xiao Tian's words.

"I changed my mind dad, I don't like her anymore, so just stop this matchmaking." Xiao Tian said.

"What happened to this loser?"

"Hasn't he always wanted me?"

"Why did he reject me?"

"Does he know that I was the mastermind behind his accident yesterday?" said Princess Jia Li in her heart.

"Princess please don't be offended, after yesterday's accident the prince still can't think straight." Xiao Zhaoye said while trying to lighten the mood.

"It's okay Your Majesty, if the prince really doesn't like this matchmaking, we'd better stop it." Said Princess Jia Li.

Hearing that his daughter wanted to cancel the matchmaking, Jia Xin held her daughter's shoulder and said.

"My daughter, you can't do that. After all, this matchmaking is very beneficial for both parties, so I suggest that this matchmaking be postponed for 3 years, so that you get to know each other, if in 3 years you still don't like each other, you can cancel this matchmaking." Jia Xin said.

"Okay dad." Said Jia Li.

"Marriage can indeed be postponed for 3 years, but they can be engaged first so that nothing will interfere." Jia Xin said as she looked at King Xiao Zhaoye.

"Son, you're okay with this, right?" asked Xiao Zhaoye as he glanced at Xiao Tian.

"It's up to you, but as long as you know, I will never fall in love with her." Xiao Tian replied leaving the banquet hall.

"Son, please watch your mouth!" Xiao Zhaoye snapped.

"It's okay to leave the prince alone, maybe he is still thinking about yesterday's accident." Jia Xin said.

"Thank you for understanding Brother Jia Xin." Xiao Zhaoye said.

"You're welcome Brother Zhaoye." Jia Xin said.

"Is it just me, or did the loser turn out to be more authoritative?" thought Princess Jia Li.

"Then I say goodbye, I'll leave my daughter, so I can get to know the Prince more." Jia Xin said as she stood up from her seat.

"Father, but you didn't say that I should stay here!" said Princess Jia Li.

"Don't worry, Dad will come back tomorrow with more groups." Jia Xin said.

"But for what?" asked Jia Li's daughter.

"For your engagement, of course." Ji Xin replied.

"But father..." said Jia Li with a disappointed face

"Are you going to fight dad?" said Jia Xin with an angry look.

Seeing his father's gaze, Jia Li stopped resisting and could only obey.

"N… no." Reply to Jia Li.
