The Golden Throne

Seven Years Later

Attendants were walking through the garden, the castle was bustling. It was a normal day in the castle. Except, it was not.

Two days ago,

"Father, what do you mean the school is a hundred miles away? Are you chasing me out? There is a branch of the royal academy in the capital right?"

"Yes Liu Feng, but the one in the border city is getting a major revamp. You will be able to meet the successors of other kingdoms and aristocrats. And, you will be able to do so not as the prince of Aegon, but as the Baron of Delheim's son. You know, the town next to the academy… That way no one would bully you as a commoner, and you wouldn't be able to ride your way using my name. Everyone in the capital knows your face because of that stupid stint you pulled."

"What do you mean, the Baron of Delheim? What if someone goes there? They will find out immediately?"

"You really underestimate me son! I am a king. Do you not think that I foresaw this before? Take Sir Nicholas as your 'father'. He will listen to all your commands, so you will basically have your own town. He will act as the Baron, and you can do whatever you want in the town. Think of it as a dry run. You are to be king . You should be able to manage a small town right? It's right next to the magic academy, so don't worry about any border disputes. You just have to make sure that the town develops normally. But make sure that the people are taken care of. "

Now,

"I can't believe it. I have my own town. And my care-taker is that doofus. I will be able to do whatever I want to do.", Liu Feng was thrilled. He loved being in control. He had all the skills, but he was bottle-necked by his age in this world. Now that he was finally coming of age, he could do all that he wanted to test, without supervision. He was confident that he could do wonders.

"Now about that stupid magic academy, I am sure that I can do something about that. If there are other princes there, it is best to maintain a cordial relation with them, considering that my new town is on the border of three other Kingdoms. Well, it does have the potential to become a trade center, but I highly doubt it can do so now. ", He thought to himself. He called on a few attendants to pack his clothes when he suddenly heard Lucas.

"Don't forget me boy. I don't want to be stuck here. Take me with you. I can help you for sure. Don't get overconfident just because you are in the 5th order. The gap between the 5th order and the 6th is a gap where many fail. You still need my experience.", Lucas haughtily said.

"Don't worry. I wasn't even considering leaving you behind. After all, I do need someone I can trust to run my new town.", Liu Feng smiled. He read somewhere that studies showed that giving someone trust would make them trust them even more.

As expected, Lucas beamed. He replied, "Don't worry boy, under my care, your territory will become more successful than the capital city."

"Of course, what else can we expect from an ex- vice mage tower master.", Liu Feng smiled.

By then, the attendants packed up all his clothes and loaded them in a caravan that he was going to take to Dilheim. They left immediately, as both Liu Feng and his father couldn't wait for him to leave. When the caravan crossed the capital city, in the palace, Liu Man smiled. This wasn't a normal smile, it was quite creepy. He then called upon Davis.. "It's time", he said.
