410 The Bored Prince (1/2)
In a luxury room inside a palace, a man was sighing out of boredom.
”There is nothing interesting to do... Still no news about the matter I asked?”
The man turned towards the servants while he spoke, and they replied quickly with fear in their voices.
”No... There isn't any news yet. Please forgive us for not being useful!”
The man was quite annoyed with the way the servants treated him because he didn't like so many formalities.
In fact, that was the man's fault because he was a little tyrant when he was young and every servant in a palace knew that they needed to treat him with the utmost respect. Even the new servants learned that from the old ones.
However, the man changed after experiencing the classic trials of his family, and he felt that he had acted wrong in the past. He never killed any of the servants, but he had been too rough with them.
”Prince! Hot news!”
A servant rushed to the room scaring the rest to death by his lack of manners. However, that servant served the prince's father directly, and it would be hard for the prince to punish him. Moreover, he was bringing good news to the prince.
”Speak.”
There was only one topic that caught the prince interest after the trials, and no matter how others in his family told him that was a stupid topic, he was stubborn.
”We discovered that there is a secret organization that has been investigating how to interfere with lower universes. Moreover, they are planning to help one that is in a war with the universe you told us. What should we do?”
The servant already guessed the answer in his heart. Although he wouldn't admit it, he also felt that the prince was being too stubborn with a stupid matter, but at least that was better than how the prince lacked interest from everything before and just bullied others.
”Destroy them and obtain the results of their research. Since those two universes are currently connected, it shouldn't be difficult using the same method to accomplish my objectives. Go! Don't lose more time here. The rest, you are all dismissed for now! I want to be alone for a while.”
Everyone left the room at the prince's orders, and the prince smiled in a way that no one in their universe had seen before.
”Finally! It hasn't been a long time for me, but the flow of time differs among the universes, and it isn't even constant, so I wonder how much time passed there.”
The prince's warm smile only appeared when remembering his days in a certain part of his trial, but he didn't plan to let others see that smile.
”I wonder how you are doing now, my friend. You were forced to reincarnate for that problem with your soul, and I couldn't help you more due to the trial's restrictions, in the end, I couldn't even tell you the truth.”
The prince felt regretful for that, but there was nothing he could do while he was in the trial.
”However, I believe in you. I am sure that you managed to surpass the calamity and continued forward. However, that sword I made for you is limited by the materials despite being flawlessly created. There is no way you can use it eternally, nor others had the capability to improve it.”
The prince needed to use a loophole to create that sword, and he knew perfectly that it was something that the natives of his friend's universe couldn't do at all.
It had just been a few moments since the servants went out of the room, but someone knocked on the door, which changed the prince's expression to a gloomy one. He detested when others interrupted him while thinking about his past.
”Who is? I hope that it is important!”
The servant opened the door instead of replying, which was enough for a death sentence, but at that moment, the servant was in a rush. That was the same servant that left just some moments before.
