Everything happened just the way the knight had informed. Although he was one of the last people to appear for the test, Ashton was called inside first which kind of made the others blab a bit about him. However, the moment they saw that the kid was accompanied by royal guards, they immediately shut their mouths.
None of them even wanted to mess with regular guards of Deja, let alone royal guards who were the strongest force in the city. Still, they kept mumbling about it to themselves every now and then.
'No wonder the nobility and the royalty are just some petty brats. They get everything handed to them after all.' Ashton shrugged his shoulders and walked inside, 'Why the heck am I complaining though? I'm using the same privilege for myself, haha.'
Once inside, Ashton saw a dozen people working all around the room. Ashton did not know what they were doing but they appeared to be occupied. Only the woman who had called his name seemed to be somewhat free.
