The 1.000 year Great Sage ---> COMPLETED STORY

On the Magic School in the cafeteria, all of Seya friends were seated and eating, unbeknown to them all of the events on the border.

Ryn overslept, after spending most of the night awake thinking about the previous events and the upsetting news about the upcoming war.

- Hello everyone. Does anyone saw Seya this morning?

While everyone was eating and chatting, Princess Heiji was oddly silent.

- No, but I don't believe that he will return today. Or if he's returning any time soon.

Ryn became frightened, hearing Princess Heiji saying that.

- What are you saying, Princess? What happened to Seya?

- I don't know if anything happened, but yesterday he looked very worried about that news about the Empire Army.

And when we returned, he said that he needed to pray to the Goddess.

For all these years that I know him, every time that he says that, it's because he's thinking of doing something crazy.

Ryn had her heart pounding. She was fearing the worst.

- Do you think he went to the Elfian border? Why? Does he want to die?

Princess Heiji explained calmly, remembering previous events.

- Last time that I asked him that, it was when he wanted to visit the Dragonoid Land's. And when he returned, he introduced me to his new Master, the Elder Dragonoid Eriban. And that Dragonoid doesn't like humans!

Ryn stuttered, that was too much!

- What? Dragonoid? But…but…

Princess Heiji tried to reassure Ryn.

- Don't worry. Eat now, we must go to classes. I'm sure that he has done something amazing. You need to learn to trust him more.

Ryn was silent while eating with her hands trembling.

- …

…

While his friends were worried about him, Seya was flying over the new border that he wanted to create.

He started flying from the ocean, making his flight course until the mountains of the Dwarfs kingdom and stopping every 200 meters to place one Big Magic Crystal on the ground, filled with Dark Magic that he had previously programmed. By doing that, he made sure that the Empire army had plenty of time to retreat.

When Seya reached the mountains, he placed the final Big Crystal and activated the Magic. From that Crystal, a huge Dark beam skyrockets up in the air, with more than 10 meters high and it started spreading, touching the following Crystal. Soon, a Dark wall was seen, all the way until the ocean.

Seya as made that Wall with Compressed Dimension built in, so if anyone or anything that tried to cross it would just disappear inside of it and Seya would be warned.

- Now, better if I get back to the Rohan Palace, to report. And after that, school. Ryn must be worried by now. It's better if I don't tell her about this, she would kill me! ...

After Seya took off his robe and staff and placed it inside his Compressed Dimension, he opened a Gateway to the Royal Kingdom, where the King was seated at his throne, looking back at him.

- Oh Seya, how is everything on the border?

- Everything went well. I brought gifts for my King.

Seya crossed the Gateway, and after closing it, he then opened his Compressed Dimension in the middle of the Royal throne room, and the King suddenly saw right in front of him a lot of horses and a big pile of armors, swords and all sort of weapons. The King didn't even know where to look!

- Oh, why do you have there horses? And armors! Swords!

Seya was smiling, looking at those big piles.

- And Spears, bows, arrows, daggers… and even some steel belts. Some troops have their trousers falling, by now.

King Rohan stepped down of his throne, and he was holding one of the swords that he took from one of the piles.

- What I'm supposed to do with it?

- I have here just some of them, I have hundreds upon hundreds. I'm going to give some to the Elfian King and the RabbitKind King.

And I got myself this pretty little souvenir for me. The Emperor left hand and his royal scepter! Pretty cool, right?

King Rohan started to laugh, looking at the rock hand still attached to a gold scepter that Seya took from his Compressed Dimension.

- You even took the Emperor Sceptre? And his hand? Ahahahahah! Why did you do that?

- He was being rude and pointing his finger at me while threatening me when I was talking to him!

King Rohan was still laughing. What a sight!

- Ahahahahahah! I wish I could see that!

- My King, what should I do with all these?

- I guess that you can deliver some horses to my stable boys. But if they are too many, we can also present them to our allied countries. As for the weapons, the same.

- I wish to keep the armors, the swords, and some spears. I have some uses for them.

- Why don't you give all the horses to the stable boys? They will take care of them until you decide what to do with them. They are yours, after all.

- Very well, my King. I have already placed a Magic border along the new border of the Empire, along that amount of land that I talked with his Majesty yesterday, to prevent future incursions from the Empire.

- Have you talked with the Elfian King because of those new lands?

- Yes, he agreed that if I could prevent the war, it was my right. He would even give me his crown and one of his daughters.

King Rohan grabbed his own crown and present it to Seya.

- I see… Do you also want my crown? You really deserve it.

Seya shook his head.

- I told my King what I wanted yesterday.

- Very well. I will address the Kingdom today after lunch, giving this good news and also announcing your new title as a Marquess of those lands. Do you agree?

When the King made that question, Seya became very serious. It was as if he was expecting this to happen for many years.

He had already thought of everything about what he wanted to do if he ever had a huge amount of lands. How he would use it to serve as an example for the rest of the people of the world.

His plan was in motion.

- Yes, my King. But I wish to ask for one more thing. I know that every Noble of this Kingdom must pay taxes from his lands to the Kingdom.

But because I don't know the state of my new lands and the people that live there I wish to be free from taxes for the next 3 years.

After that, 2 years more with half the taxes that are paid on this Kingdom. 5 years from now I believe I can pay the total amount of taxes.

King Rohan was thinking. It was a big request.

- I see. I could agree with that, but the other Nobles will think that I'm giving you special treatment.

- I want to test on those new lands some ideas. If they work, they could be implemented on the Kingdom lands. And those that don't work, the damage will be only on my lands.

- Hum… I understand… that's a very good idea. I agree with that. I will have my scribers have that in writing for us to sign. With the Royal Seal on it, no one will oppose.

- Thank you, my King, I will not let you down. And with this, my plan is in motion. All the pieces are in place.

The King became curious. This boy was planning all of this?

- Plan? What plan are you talking about?

- Just a promise that I made to the Goddess, many years ago.

- Oh, I see… by the way, last night and even this morning, I prayed to the Goddess for the peaceful resolution of all this mess. I hope that she's not angry with me anymore!

- That cute Little Goddess don't get mad… heheheh!

- I hope not! I guess that now, you are returning to school, correct?

- Yes, it's almost lunchtime, I have some preparations to take care regarding my Magic projects. I shall take my leave now, my King. Please give my regards to the Queen.

- Of course.

I'll see you again by the end of this afternoon, for your official endorsement as a Marquess. Make sure to bring the beautiful Ryn Mycym as your partner and everyone else as your escort.

Don't forget your parents, the Elfian King, and the RabbitKind King, ok? I'll talk with Ryn Mycym father.

Seya smiled wickedly while rubbing his hands.

- Can I dress the Princess as a guard? She would look cute as a Guard escort!

King Rohan looked at Seya, imagining the scene of his daughter. And the reaction of the Queen!

- If you want to die at the hands of the Queen, go for it! Ahahahahah!

- Better not then… ||…Gateway open…||… until later on, my King.

King Rohan was looking at the Gateway dispersing after Seya crossed it.

- All ended well, after all. I'm glad that the Goddess granted us this kid.

…

In Seya's room, his Magic Projects were still running at full force. There were huge piles of Crystals everywhere. Seya just placed all of them inside his Compressed Dimension and placed more Magic on the Big Crystals for the production of more Crystals.

Suddenly, some knocks on the door pulled him out from his thoughts.

Knock, knock, knock!

- One moment… Oh, hello Ryn! And Princess!

Ryn jumped at Seya, hugging him.

- Seya! Where were you? I was so worried when I didn't saw you this morning!

Seya was hugging Ryn back, he was also relieved.

- Sorry, I had an important matter to solve. But all went well. There will be no war with the Empire anymore.

Ryn was so surprised, that she let go and looked at Seya.

- What?

Princess Heiji was pointing her little finger at Seya, accusing him.

- Seya, what did you do? You did something outrageous, didn't you?

- I sure did. This time, I really lost my mind. I was so mad! But I didn't kill anyone, so the Goddess will not have a reason to punish me!

Ryn was trembling, looking at Seya.

- What… what did you do?

Seya took a deep breath, he knew it would be troublesome for Ryn.

- Ryn, it's better if I tell you before you heard the King's announcement after lunch.

I went to the border to meet the Elfian King last night. This morning, I disguised myself and went to confront the Empire Army.

Ryn grabbed Seya by the collar of his shirt, shaking him.

- You did what? You stupid, crazy brat! Are you nuts?

Seya continued while holding Ryn's hands.

- It gets worse… I defeated the army, went to the Empire Capital, defeated everyone there, threatened the Emperor, chop off his left hand and took it along with his royal scepter, created a new border between the Eternal Forest and the Empire Lands, and King Rohan and the Elfian King agreed to give those lands to me.

By the end of this day, you will go with me to the Palace as my partner, along with everyone as my escorts and King Rohan will grant me the title of Marquess and the ownership of those lands as a reward for all my accomplishments.

And when we get married, you will be a Marchioness. Pretty good, right?

Ryn let go of Seya's collar and she stepped back, wobbling.

Thump!

Princess Heiji quickly holds her, before Ryn hit the ground.

- If she faints because of this, I wonder what will happen when you introduce her to the Elder Dragonoid.

Seya was gently caressing Ryn's face.

- Or when the Goddess herself appears before her, on the day of our marriage! That will be a sight!

- Oh, you asked the Goddess that? It will be so cool!

- Not yet, but if everything goes according to my plan, she will beg me to accept, as a reward for all my accomplishments!

Princess Heiji was smiling at Seya, thinking about the Goddess.

- That will be amazing! Oops, we forgot about Ryn. It's better if you just help her…
