Many of the nobles at this party are looking at me funny, I've never been one to make a grand entrance. I ended up making a break in though, its better then waiting in a line just for a guard to tell me I'm not allowed in though. I look back to Jackson and I can tell that he isn't to happy with the guards. "They were just doing their jobs Jackson. In the end its my fault, I refuse to wait in a line just to be told no once I reach the front." Many of the present guards look at me with animosity, but Jackson shoots them a glare that stops anything further from happening. "I'm sure you would like an explanation on why I'm here. Can we talk in private perhaps." Jackson nods his head yes and summon Charles. They lead me to a private office away from the party so we can speak without any ears listening in.
Jackson heads over to the massive desk in this amazing office. There are bookshelf's full of books and I can see a balcony overlooking the city. While Jackson digs around in his desk I'll go ahead and take a look at the view. I walk out onto the beautifully sculpted balcony and see for miles and miles. The stars are easily visible and so is the construction in the city. Charles soon joins me while Jackson continues to dig around in his desk and files. "Is there anything I can get for you Slayer Zern? Perhaps you would like some freshly made tea." I look over at Charles and nod my head yes with a smile. He make his way towards the door and leaves. A little after he left Jackson joins me on the balcony to see the amazing view.
I look at his hands and he is holding a file of some sort, whatever its for must involve me. "It is good to see you again Slayer Zern, I must be honest I never thought I'd see you again." I just chuckle, I wasn't sure I'd see him again either. I look directly at the folder and he sees me looking. "I should explain. This is a grant for nobility in my kingdom, I want you to be a duke for my country." I just sigh at his words, I want nothing to do with nobles. As well as politics, this isn't who I want to be and he will surely be sad at my decline. "I figured you wouldn't want to, I had to at least try." I don't even get to give him a verbal answer before he already know my answer.
I do have on idea though, and it would be important to me if I could have it granted. "While you cant have me as a noble, I do have someone in mind." He looks at me to continue, she isn't rich or well known. She is just a mother to a bunch of orphans, however she is my mother in game and I want to make sure she is taken care of. "There is a woman that runs an orphanage in Blue Grass, her name is Amelia Zern." As soon as I finish saying her name he understands. Her name gives it away, but if he wants his kingdom to have a connection with me. The way to do it is to protect Amelia and her orphans. Soon Charles comes back with some tea and brings it to the balcony for us to drink. We just enjoy it in silence as the night sky lights up the night.
He sets his tea cup back on his plate and clears his throat. "I know you wouldn't come and see me if it wasn't for something important. So what is it you need." I'm glad that I don't have to waste time asking for help. I don't know if he will make Amelia a noble or not, but if he does he will be so I'll have a personal tie to the kingdom. The things I need to discuss with him will not leave this room, and Jackson has proven that I can trust him. Charles is also someone I trust, but I don't know if the court mage will be someone I can trust. He is sure to find out who I am as well, court mages isn't a rank any mage can get and they are smart and shrewd.
I set my tea down as well as I get ready to talk. It will be nice to have some help on my tier up quest, the last time I did my tier up quest in my old future it took me close to 2 months. "I'm here on my tier up quest. I need some help lifting a curse on a blind priest, and he told me your court magician might be able to help. I'm sure that you have much to do as king and if you cant spare him for a couple days then I understand." Both Jackson and Charles look at me shocked, I have gained a lot of strength in a very short amount of time. Jackson goes back into his office and begins to talk to someone through a hologram. I wont listen, since I'm such a private person I should also respect others privacy.
There is some arguing, but I take my mind off the voices around me and focus on my thoughts. If the court magician cant help me then I'll have to use the lore tablet. While I would rather use it for the divine mana aura quests I'm prepared to use it for my tier up quest. I still have a few 2x exp boosts as well, I can use those to hit some dungeons before getting my mana aura. "How has your journey been since Blue Grass? I'm sure it wasn't easy to give up a legendary item like that." Charles begins to talk to me. I wonder if they ever did get to use the item I got for them, the demands for it were incredibly high and I was happy giving it away.
I turn around and lean my back on the railing and look at Charles. "I've been to many places since the last time I saw you, the hardest was probably the trial of Monrell, the church would have found me had it not been for Monrell transporting me away. The trial is where I got this." I bring up my sword that is still in its sheath, the only thing he can see is the innate design of the handle. The sword is truly one countries would go to war for, and I'm the one that has it. While I've used my meta knowledge to better my life, I've learned a lot about things I didn't know about. Take the fact that the future is changing I can say much has changed.
He leans down to inspect the sheath and handle. I watch him adjust his monocle from time to time, he wont know the true value. He can probably find out that its very special though, he finishes inspecting it and I place it back to where it was. "You have grown very strong in such a short amount of time. Many people would be jealous of your growth, but if they found out who you really were then they would understand why." I'm sure I'll run into people and players who think like that, but so many of the players are focused on themselves it might take a long time for that to happen. I'll eventually run into NPC's who are to stupid for their own good, but there are always encounters like that in life.
I'm about to speak again, but both of us hear Jackson begin to yell at someone. "I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR RESEARCH AT THE MOMENT! I WANT YOU HERE IN THE NEXT HOUR! IF YOU ARE A MINUTE LATE I'LL CUT ALL YOUR FUNDING!!!" We both grimace at the yelling coming from the office. Keeping powerful mages in line is a very difficult thing to do, I tip the proverbial hat to Jackson for threatening to take the funding away. Having money for experiments is one of the only things that mages take seriously about other people. He walks back out of his office and I see him fix his ruffled clothes before joining us again. "I'm sorry you had to hear that. Mages are some of the most annoying people to have under you. He should be here soon, so lets catch up about things." We begin to talk about things that are happening with the monsters and the new kingdom forming, they ask questions about my battles and fights. Its nice to talk with people who know who I am. I don't have to hide anything from them, well I do. Just not as much. After awhile the door to the office opens and I see a man in his late 20s in magic gear, this must be the court mage.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
