LOGINArden gathered all his companion and prepare to leave the city soon, someone came to Arden and talked to him.
It turned out to be Lucaro, asking if he can join them on their journey to the town of Ailreh.
Arden said yes and they start their journey back to home, it will take 2 days at most if there is no incident.
2 days later, they arrived at home, Lian gained knowledge about smithing that causes improvement on the armour quality.
And Arden with Valen talked to Sean about marrying. Sean agreed instantly and now Arden and Valen are planning when the marriage will happen.
Both of them agreed that they are too young and decided to wait a year. And Lucaro decided to stay at the town and bought a house for himself.
11 months later, Arden and Valen decided to do the wedding at the same time as the new castle are built.
So they start preparing, the people are joyed hearing about this since they look Arden as their benefactor and saviour.
Many people start to make things or get things to present as a gift at the marriage and the invitation are being sent to all kind of noble Arden knew.
Some of them are Ady, sir Aswick, sir Rakham, sir Valencio, gilbert and many more including Lucaro and some of his friend.
Not only that but all the people in the town can also go to the castle and eat the food.
With all the precise calculation, the wedding will take place at 25th of June 553.
Meanwhile, all the things are being prepared, Arden spent his time becoming closer with Valen and knowing more of her.
But made sure to finish his work first before spending time with his future wife. Many things have been improved because Arden is such hardworking man.
He is a smart person too, even though he learned it when his time as a squire, but he can be considered as one since he can write and read.
This just made people's life easier and happier.
Arden hasn't gotten a gift for Valen tho, so he decided to make one.
He visited Lian at his blacksmith and talked to him, and started working on it.
He spent 3 days working on it since he needs to do it unknown by Valen and needs to slip it between the tight schedule he has.
But all his effort is paid well, he successfully made a necklace with a small diamond in hanging the middle of it.
And also made a ring with a small diamond embedded in it.
And then, the wedding days came and most of the noble Arden sent an invitation came.
They presented their gift and are being paid in the hot and delicious turkey, chicken, pork and fish, and some other food like freshly baked white bread and pottages.
Many of the peoples that live in the town came too, bringing many gifts and are being paid in the same things as all of the noble.
Many of them came to Arden to say their thanks for being invited and are grateful they have such a good lord like Arden to lead them.
All the nobles said something like that too before continuing to eat and have a conversation with other nobles.
The celebration lasted until the night, the bar in the town made their drink free for this special day.
Arden and Valen are having their "first night" together, both of them are still shy to each other, so they start slowly. Before starting, Valen asked to turn of the lightning.
Which Arden did what Valen asked, not long after that they start touching each other body and.... (you already knew what will happen) that is their first night together, from now on, they will be doing many things like that.
At the morning, Arden kisses Valen at the cheek despite him waking up naked on the bed. He got ready and goes to the wedding room yesterday then sits on a chair many nobles said their goodbyes to Arden before leaving the town. Most of the noble left for their settlement in the morning after since the barbarians event that happened, even tho it is a long time ago.
Barbarians still show their face at the noble's land even tho much weaker than before.
Arden did his usual thing, but he needs to open the gift he was given on the weddings.
Sir Aswick gave Arden a shield that has a golden dragon painted on the white background, Arden is confused on why there is the dragon painted on it but decide it was cool and decide to make it his banner since he never thinks about his own banner.
Sir Rakham gave Arden a sword that has a hilt looked like a dragon's body, the guard is like the dragon wings and the pommel is the dragon's tail and word carved on its blade, "the dragon heart".
Sir Valencio gave Arden a bow that looked like a dragon, Arden now thinks if the 3 dukes already planned to give Arden such an amazing set of equipment from them of "dragon".
Ady and Gilbert gave Arden a writing containing their story at sir Aswick's camp when they were still young.
Lucaro gave Arden a good horse armour since Arden doesn't have one.
Many of the gifts is an amulet, a rare kind of food and animal. One is a bit different tho. It's a painting of the new couple that just got married.
And then, Arden suddenly remembers on it, he will give his gift to Valen. So he goes back to their bedroom.
Valen is already in a good dress and standing in front of the mirror. And Arden come up to her.
And then closed her eyes with his hand from the back, and then give his gift to Valen.
Valen is completely surprised and very happy, both of them hug each other and then Arden need to go and do his work on the office.
He got to his office and sat down at his seat behind the desk while flipping through pages and pages of people assigned by his significant other to work at the castle.With the task to find a head butler or maid, suitable and trustworthy while being humble and not selfish. With many candidates to choose, he needed to make a hard decision.He would need to find a person liked by the others but also doing great at their work. Not some random person who looked the most suitable.But then, it would be hard to do so with only basic information about the people already working in the castle in the document which now at his hand and have his attention.'There would be 2 ways of getting information, either I interview them or I gather the information secretly' he thought to himself before thinking about it again.'Screw it, might as well do both' he thinks about it before realizing he hasn't solved the problems he needs to solve at the first place.
The crew directed the ship to the nearest settlement, the village of Albe that is located by the river. The ship moves past others that made them curious and followed it.More people gather once they saw a ship while it was put into a stop by the crew on board of it. Their curiosity written on their face as they saw a wooden board that would act as a stare being put.Arden slowly and safely walked down the wooden board as the people gathering start cheering. Their lord has returned back to them and ready to rule the lands once more.The crowd getting bigger and bigger as the people that were there to arrive tell the information to others and came back with more people to watch and cheers.The village leader came to the scene hurried and worried about people unwanted coming to his village. But once he saw Arden, he bows and with respectfully said."Sir, what are you doing here?" to which Arden responded with."Just came back from a lengthy jo
They got ambushed and captured by the unknown enemies. They taking Arden's sister is enough to make him surrender.Now, at the ship. They surrendered and dropped their weapons. The sound of metal hitting the wooden deck is enough to make the enemies drop their guard.But they do not wish to take casualties, so they didn't do a surprise attack or some short. They just pressed their upper jaw and under jaw together while seeing what would happen to them.They stare and stare while 5 of the enemies goes to the nearest tree and search for something…Confused, seeing them searching for something. Once the 5 of the enemies found it, vine. Nonpoisonous one can be seen from the fact they touch it with their bare hand.The vine is very long, almost as long as the length of the ship itself, but knowing it won't be enough. They gather more.After they had done the gathering, they approached them and start to tie the vines. Arden and the others t
In the 8th days, any seconds from now. They would have seen the land started from a small at the far distance to the big lands.They waited and waited; the crew doing their job and the passenger waited patiently with big smiles at their face. They are getting impatient now.1 hour came by, still nothing as far as their eyes could see. But… at the very distance, they could see some lands.Slowly and slowly becoming gigantic, there is a port town there. With many ships at the dock doing nothing.Closer and closer and the town became recognizable, the town he met Ansu that brought him across the sea. The Port Town of Gilam.But their destination is not there, their destination is his land. Bringing the ship with them to his land using a river that would bring them back.They would continue, but not without food to eat. The only solutions are to stop by and buy some foods in the town.So… they decided to stop at the Port Tow
"You are alive!!! I thought you were dead" He cried a little bit and clean it with his golden robe.His wife hearing just a slight sob rushed to the room and opened the door with force, she began scolding whoever made her husband cried.Even though they fought commonly, they still loved each other. Once she realized the person who made her husband cried, she apologized and excuse their self and left the room.They waited for them to return and the door began opening itself. There, stand a maid with teapot and glass on a wooden tray.She began serving it to them and they accepted with gratitude on their face before she was done and asked."My lord, do you need anything else?" They thought and responded Arden responded with."When will the shogun return?" The maid just stood in front of them and made a smile before leaving the room.Not long after, like 15 minutes or so, Mitsuo returned with his wife and entered the room. His face was c
He walked and walked, through the small path that guides him through the graveyard. To the guard post he goes.He reached the guard post and saw a guard there; he is sleeping comfortably on his simple platform elevated from the floor and got woken up by a person calling him."Hey, hey, wake up," The guard opened his eye and saw a man in the dead's clothing with dirt and all sort of things covering his body.Not a mere seconds later, the guard blacked out 5 seconds later after making a face of seeing a person risen from the dead.After the guard blacked out, he sighed and turns his attention to the gate to open it by any mean.The gate is locked…Leaving him no choice but to search for the key.'Where would the key be?' Then he saw the light reflected by the silver things on the guard hip.'Of course, he is keeping it with him, how dumb am I?' He started making an effort to grab it but the guard is too far from the window
