The Castle of Wort, Kingdom of Sprache

.

The conference hall was filled with a ominous aura, everyone in this room was looking at each other with eyes for daggers. This was because everyone of them were rivals from the day they were born, they were the most important people in this kingdom and with some of them being the most powerful in this planet.

.

After a long silence a person finally spoke.

.

"Why did you call us here King Gama? Even if you're the current king you don't have the power to call all the Dukes over." Following this question, the other people in the room nodded while the others stayed quiet.

.

"That's a simple question Buck, our spies at the Republic of Pevnost has been strengthening their army at an incredible rate with illegal dimensional beasts, they also seem to be moving their army closer to our borders every other day, I think they are preparing for an invasion." When King Gama was reciting the explanation the eyes of the Dukes located near the borders turned into a depressing curves.

.

The one who had asked the question Buck Hailingberd was mute, no the whole room was silent.

.

"So?" A large and deep impatient voice sounded at the back "What's the plan?" He said again. When that person spoke up some of the nobles at the front smeared while others were surprised after hearing that voice. The conference hall's unspoken rules were that the higher one's rank was the closer they were to the king, some of those at the front had great pride and wouldn't want this low rank to be so rude to their king. Those who smeared turned back, when they saw who the person talking was they immediately wanted to travel back in time to punch themselves silent.

.

"Zar don't worry, we wouldn't want you to participate." After saying that King Gama thought and added. "Teach those little kids first, the academy starts in a month, you wouldn't want them to be pushed around like a toy right?" After the king said this he looked toward the strongest of the Dukes, Zavier who was nodding at him.

After a long day of reading Zeph finished his final book. Today he had learned all of the basics of the system and how the kingdom works.

.

Zeph had learned that his father wasn't only the head of the house he was also one of the 5 great dukes.

.

"So if I memorized this correctly the dukes are, my father, Buck Hailingberd, Kirono Kurai, Veneeto Noir and George Caesar. There is also the 31 countries and kingdoms, Anyway this isn't that important yet, what's important is that I go back to my room and explore this system." Zeph thought as he happily walked to his room.

.

Outside his room Zeph opened his door and saw a terrifying sight, a man in large paladin armor sitting down on his bed taking half of it. Zeph was in no way short, in fact he was quite above average at 193 centimeters yet his feet couldn't even reach his bed, for a person to be half as big as his bed he would need to be twice as big as Zeph.

.

"Hello Nephew" A large and deep voice sounded at Zeph's ears while his uncle Zar walked towards him, Zeph was now thankful that the roof of his room was as tall as it is and prayed to himself that he wouldn't complain anymore.
