The 1.000 year Great Sage ---> COMPLETED STORY

In the next morning, Seya's friends were already at the cafeteria eating. Strangely, both Seya and Ryn were not there. Myra arrived and she thought it was strange Ryn being late.

- Hello everyone. Where are Seya and Ryn? Oh, do you think they slept together already and are still in bed?

- I doubt that. That loser of my cousin didn't even kiss that girl yet. Even while she was looking at him so desperate!

A sleepy Ryn arrived, yawning.

- Good morning, Myra…everyone…

- Good… you don't look very well, Ryn. You didn't sleep?

- Not much, really.

- That must have been a very fun night! So, tell us everything, what my cousin did for you not to sleep?

- He didn't do anything! I just… couldn't sleep… I was thinking…

- He didn't do anything? Stupid cousin! And you didn't sleep because you were thinking about what you wanted him to do to you? Poor girl…

- Nothing like that! I… was just… too happy…

Hina clapped her hands, cheering for her friend. And then she saw them…

- Way to go Ryn! But you're going to have a lot of trouble from now on. Look, Seya was coming here but those 3rd-years girls stopped him and they seem to be flirting with him!

Princess Arys was looking to where Hina pointed out, it had nothing to do with her, but she was angry.

- I don't know about you, but if it was my boyfriend, I would go there and kill those girls!

- I can't do that! They seem to be some Nobles, and I'm just a Merchant's daughter!

Myra was also getting angry. The nerve of those girls!

- You should not sell yourself so short, Ryn! After all, you are the daughter of the Representative of the Mycym Merchants Association! And Seya chooses you, so I guess you have the right to go there and put those girls in their place!

- Yeah! But… I'm not going… Seya could get mad at me…

Princess Heiji wanted to see blood, so she tried to poke the lion! Or in Ryn's case, lioness.

- Knowing that guy, he wouldn't get mad with you even if you went there and slapped them!

Go slap those girls for flirting with him and slap Seya for still being there!

Princess Arys was still looking at the other girls, and still angry.

- Seems it's no longer necessary, Seya said something and the girls are looking at us… Oh, he's coming.

- Good morning everyone!

- It seems you are in a very good mood, cousin! No wonder, a loser like you was being flirted by all those girls! You must be very proud of yourself! Doing all that while Ryn was here looking! Stupid brat!

- What are you talking about? They were just saying good morning and they asked me to join them for breakfast. I refused and said to them that I had my girlfriend here, waiting for me!

- … girlfriend… Yeah… I'm his girlfriend… me!

Hina was smiling, just by looking at Ryn.

- Seya, you blew up Ryn again!

Princess Arys looked like she was boiling inside.

- You stupid brat! You need to assure Ryn here! She's insecure because of you!

Seya looked at Princess Arys, surprised.

- What? Why?

At that moment, Princess Arys snapped. It wasn't possible that her cousin could be so dense! Or maybe he was just stupid, what was even worst!

- You really are stupid! Did you get too many punches on your head while training? Of course, she would be like that!

There were a lot of 3rd-year girls flirting with you! And most of them are Nobles looking for a husband!

And someone as rich and powerful like you, of course, there would be a lot of them trying to grab you!

I don't believe we are related!! Maybe it's your human part that messed you up! Stupid!

- …I see… Ryn, do you want to come with me?

- Where?

- Just to a place I know for a very long time. My favorite place, actually.

- Ok, it's far?

- …||…Gateway open…|| with this, no place is too far! Come!

- …Ok… Oh, so pretty!

As soon as Ryn walked through the Gateway, she found herself standing on the top off a cliff full of grass and flowers, near the ocean.

The sun was still rising and the sky had an amazing blue color. The ocean was visible all the way until the horizon, with only some small boats near the beach down there.

There were some Jumping Mousses near by that were eating some flowers while looking at Ryn.

- …||…Gateway Close…||… yes, this cliff is near the coast, from here you can see the ocean until far away. I came here often, to think.

In fact, since I met you I always came here thinking about you. I wanted to show you this place for quite some time.

- Oh… so this is like, our place?

- Yes, it could be if you like.

- It's so pretty…

- Ryn, you don't need to be insecure about us, ok? It doesn't matter if there are girls coming after me in school. I always had girls interested in me because of my Magic or my fighting skills, so I can recognize pure interest.

Seeing all that beauty around her and having the boy she liked saying that to her, was too much for Ryn. All her feelings that have been piling up for some time, all her doubts since Seya said that he liked her, all of that came rushing to her eyes and she couldn't stop her tears. She tried to speak, but with all the crying and sobbing, it was difficult for Seya to understand her.

- Ok… but… I… can't help it… I don't think I deserve you… I'm just a merchant's daughter… my family is not of Noble blood… they are just hard workers… my father constructed his company by working every day…I'm just… not good enough… for you…

- Stop crying, please. I'm the one that doesn't deserve you! I can only fight, use Magic and think about crazy things! I even had to come to this school to make friends around my age!

You were the one that looked at me, an airhead always lost and even so, you tried to help me! And up until now, you don't stop surprising me with your gentle and kind way!

- But… someone like you must have a lot of friends!

- Not my age! The youngest is 17 years and the oldest, I don't even know how to count his years! And I'm not even counting the cute little Goddess, that one I think is immortal!

Up until now, I only met parents that want to put me together with their daughters only to gain something!

- What? You just said some impossible things!

- Oops… I messed up! Forget what I said! I just wanted for you to stop crying!

- Sorry, too late for that! Who is that oldest friend? And you call the Goddess cute and little? And she's also your friend? Have you met her???

- Let's just say that in the last 5 years besides travelling everywhere with my mother, I also travelled alone. And I met a lot of interesting beings. Those stories I'll tell you when we get old, near the fireplace of our house surrounded by our grandchildren.

- …when we get old?... you are thinking so far ahead?... grandchildren… yeah, I would like that…

- And if not being a Noble worries you, remember that my father is a Duke of the RabbitKind and that also implies that I'm already a Marquess of the RabbitKind. And you will become a Marchioness when we get married.

Or I could go now and accept the Viscount title that King Rohan as offered me for all my achievements so far!

- …married?... Marchioness… a Viscount? The King offered you a Noble title?

- Yes, I told him that I would accept being a Duke or a Marquess, not lower than that. He's still thinking about it. Heheheheheh!

- You just don't stop surprising me!

- Don't worry, sooner or later you'll get used to it! Heheheheh! Now, shall we get back? I didn't have my breakfast yet and we have classes to attend.

- Ok, I calmed down already, I think Princess Arys will not bother us too much now.

- She will… that crazy cousin… ||…Gateway Open…|| come, let's go.

Princess Arys was looking at the Gateway, with her hands on her hips, and her eyebrows frowned, still looking very angry.

- So cute, the love birds are back! Did that stupid apologized, Ryn? Or I need to teach him a lesson?

- You don't need to. Everything is ok. Let's just eat or we are going to be late!

- Cousin, at least you kissed her this time?

- Ah! I forgot!

Princess Arys was smiling evilly at Seya.

- You really are stupid! Ahahah…what?...

Then she noticed that Ryn had her eyes red and still wet. That could only mean one thing. Imagining what had happened to her friend, made her completely mad.

- Ryn, have you been crying??? What this stupid brat do??? Come here you loser, I'm going to kill you!

Seya only had time to duck and then he had to jump backward, to get out of reach, because Princess Arys immediately after saying that, threw a punch and seeing Seya ducking, she did a sidekick, aiming to his head.

Seya had to run to escape from a very angry RabbitKind girl. The others had a hard time to grab her before she went after him. Ryn tried to calm her.

- Princess Arys, please stop! Seya didn't make me cry! I just cried with happiness!

Hearing that, Princess Arys stopped struggling and she let go of Zak and John, she was grabbing both from their necks.

- Wait, what? Are you lying?

Ryn nodded strongly, still worried.

- I'm not lying! Seya told me many things and he took me to a beautiful place near the sea. When he told me that he had been going there many times before thinking about me, made me so happy that I couldn't stop crying.

Princess Arys had her face all red, embarrassed.

- I'm sorry guys… I lost it for a moment.

Zak was still rubbing his neck.

- Yeah, you should apologize more! Why were you so mad at Seya? You are always joking or teasing him, but this time you looked like you wanted to kill him!

Princess Arys was looking down, and she spoke in a trembling voice.

- I don't have many friends, so, seeing Ryn like that, made me really mad… and… my cousin is so cool, I couldn't believe that he had made Ryn cry… and… I got a little mad… I don't like when my friends are sad…

Ryn couldn't take it anymore. She hugged Princess Arys and in a no time, the two of them were crying and smiling. The others were smiling at them while Zak and John were still rubbing their necks. Zak shrouded his shoulders.

- Girls are weird.

Hearing that, Hina turned towards Zak a menacing look.

- Are you saying that I'm weird also??

Zak understood that he had a target stuck to his face.

- No, not you! You are perfect like you are!

Hearing that, Hina turned red.

- Perfect? Me?... thanks…

Now was the time for Zak becoming red all over his face.

- Yeah… you're welcome…

Princess Arys was still crying while hugging Ryn, but she couldn't miss that one.

- Yeah, go Hina! That was a nice one, Zak. Finally! Hehehehe!

Princess Heiji blows up.

- Ahahahah! This crazy Princess never misses a shot! When we think that she's just a normal and kind girl, she returns to her usual self!

…

One morning in the back yard, the Fighting Class was about to start. While every student was excited about that class, Seya was just polishing his sword, while being closely watched by Princess Arys. She had a very defiant look on her eyes, like if she was scheming something.

- Hello everyone! We are starting today with some mock battles with weapons. You can use your own weapon or choose one over there. Pair up and fight.

After the Knight teacher said that, Seya was looking around, choosing a target.

- Now, who will be my opponent?

Princess Arys was already with her sword pointed at Seya's chest.

- Of course, it will be me! I'm not seeing anyone around that could put a good fight against you!

- Oh, and you think you can, cousin? Nice!

- I'm going to defeat you, that's for sure!

- …hum… I don't know if I let you fight a little, or I just defeat you immediately…hum…

- As you would defeat me! Prepare yourself! "Oh, Earth..."

Seeing Princess Arys in a fighting stance and starting a Magic chant, made Seya roll up his eyes, annoyed.

- Come on, are you really going to chant to cast your Magic? That's not even funny!

- "…from the Goddess, come…"

Since the Princess kept on chanting, Seya created a Dark Dome all around her.

- ...What...What's this???

While she was still pondering in fear what was happening, Seya flattened the Dome and threw the Princess into his Compressed Dimension, making her disappear inside of it.

- That was fast… Who's next?

Seya looked around to find another opponent, only to see a very surprised Ryn Mycym looking at him.

- That was just to scare her, it was just my Compressed Dimension Magic. Let me get her back, I want to see her face!.... done, here she is! Hello cousin! Had a nice trip?

After Seya opened a Compressed Dimension in front of him, Princess Arys crossed it with a terrified look on her face and after seeing Seya in front of her smiling made her go nuts.

- …. What was that?... It was so Dark…you… you cheater! This is supposed to be a mock battle with weapons, not Magic!

- You cheated first, you started with Earth Magic. It's not my fault that you are too lazy to practice Magic Control and you still need a chant to use Magic! Ryn and the others are already using Magic without chanting, except you!

- Now I'm really mad! I'll make you eat the tip of my sword!

- Ok, come at me, little RabbitKind girl! I want to see you jump and scream for daddy!

- You brat! I'm going to chop your tongue off!

She immediately rushed against him and did a side sweep directly to his head. Seya did a backflip while kicking her sword really hard.

She almost let go of it because of the vibration but she just let the sword swing in the direction that Seya kicked it, then she changed the trajectory to the ground and hit the ground with the tip to make it stop. As soon as the sword bounced back up, she jumped to get Seya and with a downward movement, tried to chop him in half.

Seya moved to the side while aiming at her stomach. She graciously defended it with her sword and then she turned the sword a little so that Seya sword would keep on moving forward while she used her elbow to hit Seya in the face.

He jumped back and did a hard jump to the right to avoid another attack.

- ||…she's very good… and fast… some amazing movements…||

The Knight teacher was watching their fight, impressed by the way that Princess Arys was making Seya have a hard time.

- Very good swordsmanship! I mean, swordswomanship!

Princess Arys was running after Seya, trying to slash him, while he just jumped back and forth, and escaping every attack.

- Stop jumping around like a ball! Stay still so that I can cut you!

- Ok, I'll stay still!

Seya gathered Magic around his body to make him lighter than a feather. Then he used Wind Magic beneath him to make him go up. He stopped at 5 meters high, just looking at Princess Arys.

- I'll be right up here, completely still!

Princess Arys was so mad, that she didn't even realize that Seya never did that!

- What are doing flying up there in the sky? Come down this instant!

- Come and get me, little RabbitKind girl! I'm completely still, just like you wanted!

The Knight teacher couldn't believe what he was seeing. There was a boy hovering in the sky, like a bird, right in front of him!

- He's flying???? What??

Hearing the surprised shouts of the Teacher, the other students stopped their fight, and they looked up, at the direction that the Teacher was pointing.

One particular RabbitKind girl didn't notice the stopping of the noise of the other fights, she was just screaming to the sky!

- Stop being so damn annoying and fight properly!

- Are you sure? If that's what you really want, ok then.

By making himself heavier and slowly decreasing the Wind, Seya did a gentle landing.

- Prepare yourself, here I go, crazy girl!

- Come, I'll just…

As soon as Seya hit the ground, he immediately rushed forward and he suddenly changed course to the Princess right side, making the Princess lost sight of his movements. He quickly made two consecutive swipes with his sword. One clash made Princess Arys lose the grip on her sword and the other, sent the sword flying and sticking in the ground at 3 meters distance.

Pling!

- Ouch! Oh, my sword… I lost… You are too fast, I couldn't even see you!

- Sorry, you said that you want me to fight properly, so I did. Are you hurt?

Princess Arys was smiling at Seya.

- Just on my pride… that was amazing, cousin! Was that Body Strengthening Magic?

- No, just hard training.

The Knight teacher was walking towards both of them, and that last remark from Seya made him curious.

- Did you use that speed without Magic? How is that possible?

- A lot of muscle training since I was a child. I can't rely only on Magic, can I?

The Knight teacher wondered what kind of training Seya underwent.

- I see… Well everyone, why are you all looking at other people fight? Continue!

One particular girl was fighting with Hina Motoama while making some glances at Seya and Princess Arys.

- My boyfriend is so amazing! Oh… I said, boyfriend…

Hina had to quickly change the direction of her sword slash, she was aiming at Ryn head thinking that she would easily avoid it while preparing for a real strike. She almost struck her!

- Ryn, don't space out, were fighting over here, remember? I almost didn't have time to stop my sword!

- My boyfriend… heheheheh!

- Ryn, come on!
