64 Trial Star (1/2)
While we all focus on the Prince as he announces the rules to the Trial we are to undertake, behind him stands another man. Looking down at us with a smirk on his face he sits on a massive serpent but I can't find its head from down below, the prince doesn't seem to notice or maybe he does not care. The crowd gets more and more agitated as every guard upon noticing the man falls to their knees, they only bowed before the prince so who is this man before us now? Princess Tarisa then bows after she looks behind her saying.
”Emperor... I mean Father what brings you out here were you not busy with other matters?”
As we are stunned by her words everyone takes an extra look at the extremely young looking Emperor, he looks every bit human with the exception of his eyes that are like a dragons that change color and the massive tail behind him.
”Greeting a lot of you have come here today to my home in order to join the guard units that would protect my wives, although that is not all that those have come here for I will personally watch the test for those units. So I hope you put forth your best so you are selected for the jobs you all have come here to pursue.”
Silence washed over the thousands of people standing before the Emperor only to see Prince Vesta push the Emperor aside, shock was all that was left as nothing happened to the prince when this occurred. What did this mean was their relationship that strong or was this Prince spoiled beyond belief, the next thing the people saw was the argument between father and son on how to conduct the trial with both of them being here.
”Did I not help you build the tower I only wish to watch and mess with the test takers while the others finish the budget meeting!”
”Father you... Fine stay but don't push any blame on me when mother finds out I won't shield you, in fact if you try anything I will show them all your hiding spots!”
Everyone looks to see the Emperor shaking his head agreeing to the terms set by the Prince, afterwards the Emperor moves to the side of the Prince with a smile on his face.
”Everyone Sorry for the trouble this is my father the Dragon Emperor, he is going to watch todays test along with me so put in extra effort, we have high hopes for this batch after all.”
Not delaying any longer before another mess shows up Vesta takes out a small tower that expands in the center ofthe camp, the tower now stands majestically tall even reaching the clouds above.
The tower with its clean cut surface reminds everyone that the technology from the Emperor is superior than any of the methods they have ever seen. Derrick has never seen a building so beautiful in his life this tower would cost more than every village he passed coming to the Empire. With a loud crack the doors to the tower slowly slide open another thing they have never witnessed before, everyone looks on in awe at how the doors went inside the doorway.
”The test inside will separate everyone upon entry! After a test of abilities everyone will then meet again in a large space before a scoreboard. This board will show everyone how well they are doing and whether or not they will pass, each trial passed will award 20-40 points the goal you all must reach is 400. Ask your questions now you will not get another chance to gain information once you enter the Tower, don't think about anything extra and ask your questions I will punish no one no matter what is asked about the Trial Tower.”
Hearing these words many still hesitate to step forward until a familiar face does so.
Stepping up from the crowd is the Heaven Tier Smith. ”Prince Vesta I am Thain from the Star Nation as the announcement was for those who wanted to join the army or personal guard, I came here to gain further knowledge in smithing. Will taking this trial still allow me entry into the Empire to find a master?” Said Thain with his hands shaking, looking around he can see many others like him were struggling to ask this very question.
