The Frivolous Prince

[12]

“Everything is set-up in the forest. Remember, even if this forest is just man-made, the beasts that you will encounter are still as ferocious as the beast outside of this kingdom. We have many high-ranking mages that are stationed at some certain place but that doesn't mean you could be carefree,” Professor Vyrr said.

They really prepared for this test. Maybe it’s a preparation for Zeana. This is like a test run on Zeana’s education and if it doesn’t work they will just scratch it out. Though another important figure is here. I’m not talking about myself though, I’m talking about Amaya Sinclair. Their family wouldn’t be happy if they noticed something like this.

“Zenith, are you ready to go?” Renver asked.

I can feel that Renver is a good guy but the other two, I don’t think so.

“Hmp. We don’t even need his help in this test,” Amaya said.

Yes, I’m grouped with Amaya Sinclair. It happened that Me and Denver don’t have a team yet and Amaya’s team is the only one that got two other slots. Maybe I’m destined to meet her.

“Hey! Why are you staring at Princess Amaya?! Do you want to die?” one of Amaya’s assistants said.

“We’re already near the Hamori Mountain!” Zenith said.

“You’re way too excited, say it if you were a day or a week away from it,” Rista said.

“Yes, don’t rush things Zenith. We’ll make this day a little longer, okay?” Zeana said.

“That’s the sea! We’re near the sea!” Amaya exclaimed.

They ran to the body of water they saw.

“This is my first time seeing the sea and it’s inside the Abysmal Territory. Even the color of the water is blood red, but I could still see it’s beauty. Let’s spend the whole day here!” Zeana said.

“Is that being too carefree, enemies might spot us and will try to ambush us,” Zenith said.

“Don’t worry, I’ll heighten my sense of detection throughout the day so I could tell all of you if there’s an enemy nearby that either wants to ambush us or just wants to spy on us,” Rista said.

“It’s a vote of three to one against you, so we will stay here for a day,” Amaya said.

GROWL!

“Oh, it’s four against one,” Amaya said.

“Tethe, just make sure you guys are not too carefree,” Amaya said.

“Yaay! Time for a bikini?” Zeana said.

“What?! When was the time you created a bikini?” Zenith asked.

“Oh, I did this quite a long time ago. I thought that we might see a beach so I asked Amaya if she could store it inside her inventory. It’s made from a delicate kind of cloth so I’m sure we will enjoy wearing it,” Zeana said.

“And of course, a certain guy would also enjoy the view from it,” Amaya said.

“You’re talking about me, right? Don’t worry, if you guys put effort on that kind of clothing, I’ll for sure appreciate it,” Zenith said.

Amaya blushes and punches Zenith.

“What?!” Zenith exclaimed.

“Prince Zenith, Zeana also made something from me, be sure to look at it,” Rista said.

“Do want you want guys. I don’t understand how your mind works anyway,” Zenith said.

Zenith started sorting out their base camp. They camp in a rock formation near the beach to hide themselves from beings passing by.

Zenith started cooking for their lunch and the girls are busy putting on their bikinis.

“Zeana, here’s yours and Rista, here’s yours,” Amaya said while handling out the bikini that came from her storage.

“Where’s yours?” Zeana asked.

Amaya’s current clothes turned into bikinis in an instant.

“Here’s mine,” Amaya said.

“Wow, how did you do that?” Zeana asked.

“I tried thinking of getting all of my clothes into the inventory and putting on my clothes from my inventory at the same time. So it’s more like I’m changing what I’m wearing through the use of dimensional storage,” Amaya answered.

“Wow, you’re already able to do that and even chanting ‘Dimensional Storage’. You’re really a genius, you even learn that without the help of anybody,” Rista said.

“Well, we’ve been practicing and training for a long time already. I’m sure everyone could do this with enough time,” Amaya replied.

“Yeah, having enough time, that feat is really achievable but normal, people learn it just after ten years of experience with dimensional storage, so you really deserve praise,” Rista replied.

“Since we’re ready, let’s surprise Zenith!” Zeana said.

Zenith was dumbfounded after seeing the girls in their bikini.

“Feeling good?” Zeana asked.

“Well, you girls really shine in this kind of atmosphere. You’re beauty really outshines even the great scenery of this beach. Oh, after all, you’re the best scenery here,” Zenith said.

All the girls blushed.

“You’re also talking about me, right, Prince Zenith?” Rista asked.

“Of course, I’m pertaining to the four of you,” Zenith said.

“Then, everyone!” Rista said.

“Happy Birthday!” the girls said in chorus.

Amaya used her dimensional storage to bring out the decorations for Zenith’s birthday.

“Ohh, so you guys remembered?” Zenith asked.

“Of course! That’s why we’re staying here on the beach for one day. We’ll have a celebration,” Rista said.

“Oh, thank you very much. I appreciate it,” Zenith said.

“Sorry for not being able to celebrate your previous birthdays, we’re just too focused on getting stronger. But at least we made it so that we could celebrate your fifteenth birthday where you’ll be able to undergo the Hero’s trial,” Amaya said.

“It’s fine, I’m really happy about this. But how did you do these decorations?” Zenith asked.

“We’ve already doing this months ago and we decided to use to with everyone’s fifteenth birthday and since your birthday comes first, we made it secret to surprise you, you’re the one cooking anyway so we figure out that you don’t need to help us in this kind of things, did we somehow surprise you?” Zeana asked.

“Yup, of course. I’m surprised and very happy about this. I’ll cook a feast for dinner later,” Zenith said.

Everyone cheered.

“Then, for my gift, I’ll give this to you,” Rista said.

Rista holds out a piece of paper to Zenith.

“What? We’re giving gifts?” Amaya said.

“Hmm, what is this?” Zenith asked.

Zenith unfolds the paper and reads what was written in it.

“This is a powerful magic. If you decided to learn attack type magic, learn the meaning of this by just looking at it every now and then. Oh, you’re really thoughtful Rista, I’m fine with finding its meaning but I’m sure I’ll not use this since I’m loyal to my sword,” Zenith said.

“Hmp! Well, as written, you don’t need to recite it, just make sure you take a look at it everyday and you might understand its meaning. Different than other chants that have same pattern for skills, that one is self-created. The skill and the chant is only created by me and you’re the only one that knows about it,” Rista said.

“How about Amaya and Zeana?” Zenith asked.

“I got another magic skill for them, don’t worry,” Rista replied.

“Then, for my gift,” Zeana said.

“You also got a gift?!” Amaya asked.

A scarf appeared in Zeana’s hand.

“This is my gift, I tried refining all of the animal’s hair we got so far to create this scarf. I hope it will be comfy for you and protect you from the cold,” Zeana said.

“Wow! It’s appearance is very pretty and for sure fits me perfectly. Thank you so much, Zeana. But don’t expect me to wear this all the time,” Zenith replied.

“Of course! It’s only for cold days after all, don’t worry I also made one for myself and for the others. But I make it with most of my ability, so I hope you would still appreciate it even though I made everyone the same thing as my gift for you,” Zeana said.

“Of course, I’ll treasure your gift, Zeana,” Zenith said.
