Zinn was on his way to another weaponry shop when he noticed someone calling him from behind and he turn to check, as his eyes fell on the number of carriages and elves knight, he wonders if it was another royal family passing by and ordering him to move from the road.
He quickly steps back and allow them to pass, which as the first two carriages passed, the third stopped and all stopped as they were six carriages.
"Hey, Kai of the brave!" a voice said as the door open and the knight said "Master kai, please enter".
Zinn didn't really get it as his name change this dawn and one of the knights, he travelled with in Princess Filia call him by that as not 'Zinn' his common name.
Zinn clear the thought off his head as he smiles and said "You have can your dress as it makes it strange to know you were the one 'Klain'"
Klain who was the leader of the knight that he fought alongside laugh and told him it was just their main usual outfit, which he opened the door for him to enter telling him that the princess wants to talk with him.
It was like the princess wasn't going to leave him that easy so he entered the carriage and greeting "Good morning, Mr. Hai and Princess Filia"
"Morning, Zinn" they replied as he took his seat facing them and he asked "Hmmm, where is lady Sera?". Mr. Hai replied "She is with Princess Liya the first Princess and where are you heading anyway?" as Zinn said "I'm going to sell this" and made the dagger appear before them in his hands shock them once more.
"The legendary ancient dagger and you use magic too?" said Mr. Hai as he watches the dagger closely and turn to the princess.
Zinn who noticed the confusion replied "I can only use storage magic and make weapons with this magic I have only" as Princess Filia replied "I was going to buy a dagger and energy material but since you have a dagger that only an Epic stage blacksmith can make with materials that a hard to find, I want to buy it from you please".
Seeing Zinn in his nice uniform too but messy hair, she watches him to charm him but he didn't see it that way and he said "You can have it". He quickly grabs her hands and gave it to her as she asked "How much would it cost?" as Mr. Hai said "That is 1,000gold above".
Just as they were about to pay him, he said "That is my payment for all the help and also the kindness" as he refuses the payment and making the princess surprised.
But when she noticed, he was just trying to clear everything and escape from their hands, she said "I insist you take the money as you don't owe us!" as she watches Zinn who felt nervous and change the discussion saying "Oh, you want a material for energy right, I have this as I can sell it to you"
Mr. Hai who saw the two horns of a demon he holds in his hands said "A C-grade demon horns that gives mana and vital energy. It should even cost 1,800gold coins above" and Zinn said "I will sell one horn to you as 1,200gold coins and please just accept my prize as I'm just happy to sell it at a lower price for you okay".
The nervousness on the face of Zinn made Mr. Hai stop the princess from making him think like they want him and took one of the horns as he gave it to her, which he hands over 1,500gold coins to Zinn after the princess agreed on it.
"So, how are you going to use it Filia?" Zinn asked slowly as he stare at her and waiting for a reply.
But it turns out that she didn't bother to answer him again as she started to give him attitude and looking at the horn that was in a gem form. Zinn was still confused to her sudden change and quickly asked "Hmmm Filia, you wanted to tell me something right?".
She was still quite as Zinn asked again "I'm talking to you and still you are ignoring me, you know it's not my intention to get you angry so stop giving me attitude and tell me the reason I'm here"
Mr. Hai who seems to noticed her sudden rude behavior coming up said "It is just a little thing that is going on with her so, please come down as she is not in a good mode today as she only wanted to stay around you" and calmed him down.
Just when Zinn try to put everything behind and hold her hand, she immediately removes her hand and gave him a hot slap as he wonders what that was for.
"Why did you slap me? Or should I leave?" asked Zinn as he watches her as she bent her face down and said "The door is available for you to leave and also don't call me by my name if you leave"
It was like she hated him and Mr. Hai who was about to talk got shut up as she said "You know I hate when a person I help turns me to a full by lying and pretending so Zinn Kai, I'm not interested in you again"
"I'm sorry for telling you all that I'm married, and here is your money as you can have it" Zinn said as he drops the 1,500gold coins on the seat and stopped the carriage as he alight.
Zinn walked away as cool as he was and took a shortcut to the academy as he had his mind playing what had happened in the carriage as he wonder if she really wanted to just hurt him and with all looks, he accepted that his place was never a good one with royal family as he would just be taken and thrown away.
At the entrance of the academy, Zinn stare at the tall walls and gate as he found several story buildings. He entered after showing his ID that caught his attention by the name 'Zinn Kai' and he knew it was a total change.
He was given directions of where to go first as he brought his bag out and drag it, as he heads for the academy dormitories first.
Having the key to the only his room, he places the bag down and arrange his staffs as soon as possible, which he closed the door as he heads for the academy information hall.
About to walk into the hall, a senior grabbed his dress and threw him away as he landed on the ground to prevent any stain on his dress. Everyone stopped as they watch what was about to happen as the senior walked towards Zinn who watch him with an emotionless face as the guy had two other seniors behind him.
"Who the hell are you and why are you dress like the academy belongs to you?!" asked the guy as cracks his fingers.
Zinn replied "I don't care whoever you are but if you want a fight, go and look for your size red-badge students" as he walked to enter the hall but the guy tried to grab his dress again and with just an instant, he landed a blow on the guy's face as it sent him flying a few distance away.
He stood up quickly as he said "I'm Sam and I challenge you to a one-on-one dual as if I win, you will have to become my puppet" and Zinn accept saying "And if I win, you will have become my servant and do whatever I tell you to do".
The student over there gave them space as Sam took out spear and Zinn watch him with the same face expression. It was like Sam was informing him to give up but Zinn pulled his hands from his pocket and brought out the ancient dagger as they jump into battle.
'Wind spear!'
'Storm lightening!'
'War flame!'
'Dast-doom!'
Sam roared out his skills as Zinn dodge them and felt everyone in shock as they watch their blade crush into each other, made the fight fierce and interesting.
"You little brat, stop blocking and fight me head on, or are you afraid I'm going to defeat you" Sam said as Zinn replied "I'm just making it look like you have a greater hand but you are just a weak ant who is lost in the street" with his movement changing.
It was like he had disappeared and just before Sam could noticed, he appeared behind as he kick him into the ground and taking his spear as he pointed it on his neck.
"Do you give up Sam or you want to get a cut on your neck?" Zinn asked as he was already piecing through Sam's side of his neck and quickly, he accepted defeat leaving him to become Zinn's first servant.
Zinn told him to leave and go do some training as his use of spear is very poor, which after improving and he should tell other bullies not to mess with him.
