In the westernmost kingdom of the Arca continent, Westeria is in a frenzy in the royal capital about the awakening of the third prince, Alex Van Lester. This news is of course welcomed by the citizens of the capital because they hope that the third prince will bring change to this kingdom and at the same time, he said, residents of the capital were again surprised by the news of the death of the famous fortune teller, Granny Shima.
Shima's grandmother rarely did divination, but once she foresaw, she never missed. Before his death Shima's grandmother wrote a message 'A foreign insight has entered the third prince who will bring glory to this Kingdom.'
Of course this is just a prophecy, some believe there are also those who do not believe. Those who believe are the ones who have benefited from some of Shima's earlier prophecies and those who do not believe are mostly hardline adherents of the holy Church religion who think that the third prince may be a drop the devil from hell.
Meanwhile, in the royal dining room. Jani who had awakened for the second time in the other world was eating and discussing with her younger sister about their plan to tour the capital today.
Veronica asked with a nosy look "sister, are you going to see Lisa's sister today?"
Jani doesn't answer right away and begins to dig into Alex's memories of the girl named Lisa. After a while Jani began to remember, Lisa was the fiancee of their parents, but since Alex began to coma Lisa's parents broke off her engagement and now betrothed her to the son of the military general.
In the past Lisa has always been close to Alex, they often play together and over time their feelings both grow to be more special and before Alex performs a magic resurrection ritual, they are, she has expressed her feelings for Lisa and of course Lisa accepts. After that they officially became a couple and into the next day they were separated because Alex's soul could not resist his extraordinary talent.
Jani could only feel sorry for Alex and afterwards she said in her heart 'just calm down Alex, even though she is now engaged to someone else. If she still loves you to this day, I'll make sure Lisa becomes the next queen of Westeria.'
After promising Alex a promise, Jani answers Veronica's question "maybe later after we get around town. By the way, where did Brother Julius and brother Marcus from earlier not look ?"
Her mother Queen Alice, who was sitting in front of Jani, answered "prince Julius and Marcus had gone to the territory they guarded respectively, but they had gone before, they've left you a letter to give you."
After which, Queen Alice took out two letters from the spatial bracelet and gave them to Jani.
Jani received it and immediately opened the letter and read it. After reading the first letter, Jani frowned while holding back her anger then she continued reading the second letter.
The content of the second letter written by the second prince Marcus is the same as the first letter containing their request to make Jani crown prince. Of course Jani knows that they just want to escape their responsibilities as a more senior prince.
After Jani read it, he folded the two letters again and put them in an envelope and after that, Jani took out a little fire element magic to burn the two letters.
The servants in the dining room were shocked, but not for the members of the royal family as they could already guess the contents of the letter. After setting it on fire, Jani commented "again a week later I will go to the northeast border to rebuild the border town."
Jani immediately stood up and saluted his father and mother to go and prepare to tour the capital with his sister. After Jani and Veronica left, Queen Alice looked at the king and asked "Darling!, may I ask what Alex said earlier?"
The Roman king, who was eating, choked on questions from his third wife and answered "Alex himself, who asked to be sent to the border. In fact he asked for 20 thousand gold coins to do the renovation of the border town. Of course he didn't go to the border straight away, I've prepared some tasks that he has to complete in this week. If he can't finish it, then I'll cancel his departure."
"really?"
"right, I wouldn't dare lie to my queen."
"alright, I'll follow your plan this time. I happen to be wondering if Shima's grandmother's prophecy happened or not?"
Of course Jani did not hear this conversation and he did not know that he was being used by his father to ease his work.
On the capital road
Veronica walks while showing Jani her favorite places. After an hour of walking around the two of them stopped by one of the restaurants that provided an outdoor place and took a short break.
Veronica proudly said "how is sister? Lots of interesting new places, right?"
"you're right, but why are all the places you're showing up like places for girls?"
"he.he..." Veronica laughed awkwardly in response to her brother's question.
Jani added "even more so every time we enter the store, you must buy something and in the end I pay for everything."
Veronica lowered her head in embarrassment as she glanced at some of the previous shopping items. After that she remembered the threat of her mother if she was caught shopping again this month, she had to attend her mother's magic training session at the top of the iceberg.
As she recalled it, she began to shudder in fear and as if she was reminded of something then asked her sister "sister, can you use space-type elemental magic just like queen Alice?"
"sure, I have the same talent as my mother. Why are you suddenly asking about that?"
After seeing Veronica plead like that, made Jani remember her sister Princess who was on earth who had the same habits as Veronica. Where when he makes a mistake and is afraid of being discovered by his mother, he will ask Jani for help not to tell his mother, who is, but maybe because of a mother's very strong instinct the mistake was found without Jani telling and the Princess will still be punished by her mother.
Remembering that, Jani smiled and said "well I will help you, but you must show me the place you want to visit today without shopping a bit. How agreed?"
"alright, I agree." Veronica who was still thinking about the punishment from her mother immediately agreed with her brother's request.
After Veronica agreed, Jani immediately put her groceries into her storage room through space magic. After that Jani glanced at the building across the street that seemed to be being vacated by its owner and he asked Veronica "do you know what building it is?"
"oh it's a magic crystal stone research center, but since within a year they haven't made any progress, father decides on the supply of funds for them and tells them to disband."
"oh, that's it." Jani was silent for a while and then he stood up and said "then let's see what they're researching for."
"okay." Veronica answered while following Jani to the building.
As they enter the building, the staff is busy unloading the equipment inside and Jani sees a paper on a table containing the design of a communication device using magic crystals.
The design only reads about two magic crystals connecting each other and the user communicating by telepathic means, but the crystal must be channeled by magic power to be able to connect.
Just a glance at Jani already knew that this project was full of failures. Perhaps because the design is similar to the phone on earth, Jani took out ink and pen feathers and overhauled the design.
After finishing Jani left the building with a smile. Veronica who had been curious about what her brother wrote earlier tried to ask, but her brother did not tell her in the slightest.
Inside the research building.
The staff were initially aware of Veronica's arrival here, but when they reported it to the boss. The boss instead told them to ignore it and focus on dismantling.
After the princess left together with a foreign man. They approached a table used by a foreign man to write something on paper. As they saw what he wrote, they were startled and went straight to the second floor where their boss was.
The boss who led this research was named Merlof Bamster a level 5 wind element magician. He is currently in a state of confusion looking for a new research place and until now he has not found it. Perhaps still upset by the king's decision, he refused to accept the princess Veronica and instead told his men to ignore her.
As he was tidying up the documents, one of his men entered in a hurry while saying "boss!! There's something I have to show me." Then gave him some documents one of his research plans.
The bewildered Merlof immediately asked "what is strange about this plan."
"before the princess came with a foreign man and the man began to write something on this plan."
Merlof was curious and began to see the contents of the plan. As he read it, he started to be surprised and could not believe what he was reading, but as he finished reading he started to think 'maybe this will work.'
Encouraged by his curiosity, he began to tell his men "to tell the others to stop the demolition now and then put the equipment back on."
"what do you want to do boss?"
"of course I want to do some research one last time. Don't ask too many quick do it now!!"
"ready, boss!!"
As the staff left, Merlof read a message on the last page that read 'if you want to expand it widely, meet me tomorrow at the palace. SIGNED Alex Van Lester.
"did the prophecy really happen?" asked Merlof and after that he went down to help his men.
Jani was currently in a happy mood, as he managed to obtain another legendary weapon from an antique shop and moreover he only bought it for 1 gold coin.
Although he did not know the name of this weapon, but Zein had made sure that this was a legendary weapon and that was enough to make him happy now.
He is currently in front of his next destination, a weapon shop and the maker is a dwarf who is famous for his cleverness in making magic weapons.
When Veronica wanted to ask about the purpose of her brother coming here, Jani had already entered first.
