The 1.000 year Great Sage ---> COMPLETED STORY

After the class of History in the afternoon, they were talking about it while walking down the hallway. Amongst them, there was a very silent Seya.

Myra was talking with Ryn, excited.

- Now, that class was interesting. Seeing the Teacher talking about the Four Races Treaty and having Seya correcting her about the points of view of the Elfians.

Ryn was still a little dumbfounded about what happened in class.

- And the most absurd thing was that when the Teacher was contradicting him, he brought from his Compressed Dimension the Original Treaty before all the corrections! I didn't even know that something like that still existed!

Myra agreed, it was another crazy stunt by Seya!

- I bet not even the Teacher knew. Maybe that was why she fainted!

Princess Heiji was still smiling, in fact, she was smiling almost the entire class with one more blunder from Seya.

- That was so funny! Do you think that she will return? Or maybe, Seya becomes our new History Teacher? Ahahahahah!

- Why this stupid cousin can't act like a normal student! Just listen and shut up already! Annoying brat!

Seya didn't say a word, even after one more sarcastic remark from Princess Arys.

- …

Suddenly, they all heard a high pitch voice, coming from above them.

- Seya, lookout, my dear! I got this!

The next thing that Seya saw when everyone else was looking up, was a boy from the 3rd-year, the one that previously was in the Class Applications of Magic and making a fuss about attending. He was almost hitting Seya's chest with a knife in one of his hands when suddenly, he was surrounded by a bright light and disappeared.

Seya and his friends were still blinking their eyes because of that strong light and they heard the same high pitch voice.

- All it's safe now, my dear. Don't worry, I'm always with you.

Princess Heiji was the first to be able to open her eyes, but she didn't saw anyone near them.

- What was that? That light blinded me! Who was that girl talking? It wasn't the Goddess, that's for sure!

Seya thought that he was the only one to realize that he was almost hit by the knife of that 3rd-year, so he didn't say anything about that, he just tried to change the subject.

- I don't know. A fan, maybe?

Ryn was rubbing her eyes, annoyed.

- One more girl trying to grab you. Seems that I must punish one more spoiled brat.

Seya knew that it wasn't just another girl. He sensed an enormous amount of Light Magic behind that blinding light that took the 3rd-year boy.

- Well, maybe next time, Ryn.

Princess Heiji was thinking that it was really weird, she saw the boy trying to kill Seya, but since Seya didn't mention, she was going to keep a secret also. And because Ryn was still suspicious, she had to distract everyone. And she knew just how.

- Since we are all here already, why don't we go to the Palace then? Like that, John will have plenty of time to impress my parents!

Princess Arys looked at John, smiling.

- Or making a huge mess and end up losing his head…

John was looking at Princess Heiji, in panic!

- Now? But…but I'm not mentally ready!

Princess Heiji just waved her hand, making light of his fear.

- Nonsense! Seya, wake up!

Seya was still wondering what had happened.

- …Oh, sorry… I bet that John will faint before dinner!

Ryn took the bait and forgot about the previous girl's voice.

- I'll take that bet! One silver coin as he keeps is act together!

- You're on, Ryn! … ||Gateway open||… shall we go?

Seya opened a Gateway to the throne room and the King and Queen were there, looking and smiling at them. Seems that the Princess had previously contacted them using the Communicator Device of the Principal.

- Look who just arrived, my Queen!

- Oh, if it isn't our beloved daughter and her friends, that don't want to be with her because she's a Princess but because she is just so adorable! Or not!

- Mom, you meanie!

Ryn laughed, just by hearing the Queen messing with the Princess.

- Ahahahahah! Good evening my Queen and King. How are you feeling since last time?

The King smiled at Ryn.

- Look who she is! The Noble daughter's punisher!

Ryn lost all the will to laugh.

- …my King?...

- Don't worry my dear, I have already talked with my daughter and with Seya. And despite you are just a merchants daughter that attacked some Noble daughter's, you did it for your own defense and against three girls.

Ryn had a troubled look and she didn't say a thing.

- …

- Considering that you are Seya girlfriend who is the son of a Duke of an allied country, you had all the right to kill all of them on the spot.

But since you didn't do that, I was able to solve this with their parents.

Ryn was looking down, worried.

- What will happen now, my King?

- To you, nothing, my dear. To them, their parents assured me that they would be properly punished. And I told them that I will have a close look over all of them for the next years. If at any time they step over the line, I will punish them myself.

Ryn remained in silence. She was feeling ashamed for giving so much trouble to the King.

- …

- You see, I can not allow such behavior to prosper. If they don't change when they are still young, they will give me more problems when they become older.

- …I understand… I'm sorry for causing so much trouble…

The King held Ryn's hand, to reassure her.

- Nonsense! It wasn't your fault. Actually, I think this is also Seya's fault.

- My King?

- Why are you so surprised? Seems that you were already dating this girl before this incident, correct? Seya, did you properly make sure that everyone in that school knew that?

- Of course not… only after…

- And then this happened. But of course, the main problem was those girls. Seems that they were spoiled by their parents, they were always doing and giving anything that those girls wanted.

That's why I always appreciated that you took the Princess with you. I knew that with you she would experience new things and you are the kind of guy that wouldn't let her do all that she wanted, like us.

Sometimes, parents are just stupid. We remember when our children were just an adorable baby and we fail to notice that when we spoil them, we are in fact creating bad adults.

Seya nodded in agreement.

- She turned out alright. Despite what she did for the King to allow her to enter our school.

- Yes, that was very bad! I was starting to give her some responsibilities but she just wanted to follow you!

I agreed with her at that time, actually, that it would be better for her to interact more with people her age. With you there, I was sure that you would take care of everything.

But because of her position as the heir to the throne, I thought she had to start accepting her Princess status. It turned out very bad, very quickly.

- I'm sorry about that, father.

- You should apologize to the Royal Mages and Knights.

- Yes… and today I also came here for an official business… and after all that father said, I don't know if today is a good time.

- That depends. Did you destroyed the school already?

- No! That's Seya's department!

- So, official business… seems important.

- … Father… Mother… I want to introduce to you the man I choose as my boyfriend, John West.

John, your turn!

Breathing deeply, John took one step forward, almost falling because his legs lost the strength. But he recovered and while his face was turning white, he stuttered with a deep voice.

- …..I'm... John West, my King, and Queen…

The King looked at him, thinking. That family name was familiar…

- Last time you were here, I thought I remembered that family name. I think you are from a Noble family, am I right?

- …My king, my grandfather was a Marquess of the Empire until he disagreed with the Emperor. My father is a Viscount, as was my grandfather.

The King slapped his own forehead! How could he forget that name?

- I remember now! Your Grandfather helped smuggle from the Empire a lot of people that were taken from this Kingdom and turned into slaves! And when the Emperor at that time found out, your Grandfather had to flee along with his wife and son.

When he came to this Kingdom, because of his deeds, he was granted some lands and the title of Viscount. I was present when my grandfather gave that title to your family!

Princess Heiji was with her mouth open, hearing all that!

- What? I didn't know anything about that!

- … that's … the story of my family… and… because my father is only a Viscount… I don't think I deserve to be alongside the Princess… I already told her that…

Princess Heiji was impressed. That cute boy came from an amazing family!

- I knew that my cute John was amazing, but coming from such a lineage!

The King was evaluating John, looking at him very seriously.

- I see... Tell me, do you like my daughter?

- …Yes… my King…

- It seems that my daughter likes you very much, or she wouldn't introduce you as her boyfriend. But, are you prepared for the responsibilities that being with the Royal Princess carries?

- … no, my King… and… I don't think I deserve it...

Queen Rohan clapped her hands, pleased with that honest youngster.

- Excellent answer! I like this kid already! It's good that you are aware that you don't deserve to be together with my beloved daughter! I'm sure that you would do anything to make her happy!

- Of course, my Queen!

The King was smiling, deeply moved.

- Well, seems like this informal dinner has become a formal engagement dinner!

The Queen was grabbing the King's arm, she seemed very happy.

- But we need to organize an official one! It's not every day that our daughter gets engaged!

The King couldn't stop smiling, his little daughter had made a good choice.

- Of course! But I hope that you wait until you get a little older and graduate that school before getting married!

- Of course father!

John was wobbling more and more, it was too much for him.

- … me… marrying the Princess… ahhhh…

Seya quickly jumped and grabbed John, before he hit the marble floor with his head.

- Oops, he fainted. I knew he wouldn't endure all of it. Ryn, pay up! You lose the bet!

- Ok… stupid John… where did I put it… sometimes is difficult to find anything in this purse…

Ryn was very concentrated, trying to find a silver coin to pay the bet that she did previously with Seya. But inside a Compressed Space with a limit of 10 kgs, if one isn't careful, it will easily become cluttered. And Ryn wasn't a tidy person.

Seya was looking at her, amused with the troubled Ryn's face.

- How many things have you put in there?

- Not much… money, a sword, a dagger, apples, my hairbrush and mirror, some clothes, underwear…

The Queen become very interested after hearing that.

- Oh, so many things on such a little purse? Isn't that just a simple and small belt purse?

- Not quite. This one is filled with Light and Dark Crystals that Seya made and prepared. I just sewed the Crystals on the purse.

The Queen was looking at the purse, then at Seya, and then at the purse again.

- He made what? I think I heard something absurd!

- Big Brother here figured out a way to create Magic Crystals! And he created a strange new Magic to put on the Crystals to make them work as he wants.

He made this purse with is Compressed Dimension Magic. We can put inside of this 10kg of things!

King Rohan screamed in surprise. That boy did another crazy thing!

- What?

- I have here two of them, for both the King and Queen. Ryn, care to show them how they are used?

- Sure!

The King was amazed just by looking inside the small purse and seeing the Darkness stored in there. The Queen was testing it. She placed her fan, gloves, a hairpin, and a handkerchief. Just to see all of that disappear inside the small purse and to pull all out again.

The King was still looking at the purse while talking to Seya.

- Finally, you have thought of a way for anyone to use this Magic! Can this also be used for a bigger bag?

- I was thinking of making a one-shoulder bag with this Magic. With a limit of 1 ton, half the limit of an open wagon.

The King was so excited. That would be a huge help for his Kingdom!

- That would be great for the transport of goods. And for travels! When do you think you will be able to make that?

- It's just a matter of changing the weight limit of the Magic that is on those purses.

- As soon as I found a way to make the sewing of these purses and bags faster and cheaper.

- Well, I guess you could hire some people to do that manual job. Do you already think of a price for this?

- An affordable one would be 1 silver coin for one of these. I want to get 10 copper coins for each sale. It will be 5 copper coins for me and 5 copper coins for Hina Motoama here.

When Hina heard that, she didn't know what to say. She had already said to Seya that she didn't help a single bit, but there he was, giving credit to her!

- What? But… but…

- Yes, I think it will be a good price. And a very good deal for you and Hina.

I want to help you find people to do this but unfortunately, I think that this will have to wait.

We have a situation that I think will need my full attention for quite some time. That's also why the engagement party of my daughter will help to relieve some of the tension that we are facing.

Seya saw the worried look on the King's face. Something serious was troubling him.

- Did something happen?
