Chapter Twelve
Three Royal member stood side by side infront of hundreds of people who came for the Crown Prince debut.Waiting almost for mysterious 16 years of the Empress giving birth, they finally introduced the solely heir of the throne.
"Crown Prince Arthur Throndsen!"
Standing in the middle between the Emperor and Empress, a clearly copy of the Emperor youth era.Strong, Handsome and not only that, also a gentleman!
The Empress really gave birth to such perfect human being!
"I am still shock right now, the person I sass out was the Crown Prince?! Caspian,
if the Crown Prince dared to go against my family, please remember that you are my nicest bes—" Caspian put a palm lver the woman's muttering mouth.
"He's nice, also he doesn't touch any woman." He compliment the Crown Prince.
Especially if it's you he thought.
"Still! I cannot believed that he was the Crown Prince?! We even met him before his debut!" With his friend rambling about the Crown Prince and how she will get executed if people find out that she was talking bad about the Crown Prince.
"It's nice again to held a ball for everyone in the Empire," The sound of the glass clinking stop the citizens from talking.
Seeing that the Emperor is finally speaking,"For a whole 16 years, I kept my son behind closed doors.As a Father and a warrior that had made many enemies, it worries me that my only son to get hurt or worse died.But now," Pushing his son forward, the Emperor added,"He can defeat any person he encounter!Knowing how to ride horse at the age of 4, learning sword skill and even defeating General Smith at the age of 10, it was decided that at the age of 16, he will finally revealed himself to the public eyes!"
Any parents worry for their children safety, so it is also the same for both of the Royal couple.Being one of the most greatest Empire there is, enemies will wait for the right time to strike back when they heard about his weakness.
That is his family.
All of the people understand the Emperor, so they can't help but clap in praises for his thought to his only child.
Emperor Nathaniel, one of the major character who help the Crown Prince in the beginning.Such a loyal to one woman, made the readers swoon from his personality.
"Do you have anything to say my child?" The Emperor looked st his son proudly.
Like seeing his younger self, but more stronger and handsome.
"I will reached everyone expectation f me being the future Emperor," He bowed, the crowds again go wild.
"I'm proud of you sweetie." The Empress softly said, stroking her child's warm cheek.
"Thank you Mother," He turn to his Father," And thank you too Father."
"Now what are we waiting for?Let's go start the music!" The Empress clap her hands, the band soon started to make music.
"Gosh! This is the perfect family that everyone envied of."
"I can bark and be their dog."
"The Royal held a peefect image, you're an ugly dog."
"Shut up Jerome!"

"You need to calm down seriously," Caspian heaved a sigh, watching his friend devour the strawberry cake.
Like a bear mauling it's food.
"I can't calm down!" Gulping down the food, she pointed her fork against him," I'm literally stress!"
"How many times do I need to te—"
The sound of footsteps rounding the room dance floor, interrupting him from speaking to his friend."What's going over there?"
He also didn't know, he stand up and saw Valerie!
Arriving late at the party, she stood there gorgeously in a red fitting dress, hugging the curves she had.Her brown hair tied in braid that hung loose at the side.
"Is she going over there to the Crown Prince?!"
"It's been 15 minutes and the Crown Prince still hasn't ask anyone to dance."
"I think he was waiting for Valerie!"
Arthur is not really waiting for Valerie.He saw her make way through the busy crowd, heaidng towards their direction.
"Greetings to the Royal Couple."
"Valerie.Glad you made it in time," The Empress smiled, fanning her face with a fan,"Where's the rest of your family?"
"They only decided to send me Your Majesty, they also send some gift for the Crown Prince." She step aside, a butler holding different colored bags and hand them to their owner.
"My parents got these while travelling around the country.They also hope you like them."
They open the bag, the Empress got a jewelry, a necklace that glow softly pink.
The Emperir got a calligraphy pen, a matte black and smooth texture, also the Emperor's nane written cursively.
Lastly, the Crown Prince got a nicely wrap book, Arthur traced the texture of the brown leather.
"The Hero reincarnation..." He muttered the words carved at the front of the book.
"I got that from a small village at the border." Valerie mentioned, seeing that the Crown Prince was emored to the book she gifted.
"Isn't that Modan Village?" the Emperor asked, Valerie nodded.
"Yes, I met alot of good people there and hopefully Your Majesty can visit them any sooner.The scenery is also beautiful there, a perfect picnic location."
"I guess we could go there in the future.Well, we should take our leave, we also need to talk to our guest," The Empress winked, dragging the confused Emperor away.
Seeing them both out of sight, they sighed in relief,"Seriously, Your Mom should stop matchmaking us."
"She should stop soon when my white moonlight fell for me." He mentioned, Valerie looked at him,"Try harder, it seems to me that person wouldn't understand your courting ways."
"It's not that easy you know?"
"Well, for you.I already found myself one." He looked up, staring at the spot where Valerie is also glancing at.
He froze, seeing the familia pink and yellow hair at the distant table.
"I'm going to ask them for a dan—" Cutting her off, she saw the Crown Prince dashing to the table she was eyeing at.
Don't tell me!!
"Arthur I found them first!" She yelled while dashing through numerous body,
she saw how fast Arthur runs to the beauty!
"I got to her first!"
"Caspian, would you like to dance with me?"
"Eh?"
She didn't believed what she just saw!Even the people around them were suprise, seeing the Crown Prince asking someone to dance!
So, Arthur wasn't actually going for the beauty?
