[Rean point of view]

"Alright, the cabinet is over here" [Rean]

"Such nice plates!" [Charlotte]

"I wonder if I can make more artistic and durable one?" [Karon]

"Sure you can!" [Farhah]

"And the chairs are all here" [Rean]

"Jump! Jump!" [Singa]

"Woohoo!" [Cupid]

"Singa! Cupid! Don't jump into the new sofa!" [Elise]

""But..."" [Singa, Cupid]

"No but!" [Elise]

"Do you want to change the dining table as well?" [Furniture guy]

"Hmm... Grandpa?" [Rean]

"I don't think so, but Wouldn't mind a spare or two since we almost always have guests with us" [Claude]

"Then I'll sell you a cheap one" [Furniture guy]

"Is it really alright?" [Kara]

"Don't worry, Grandma Gizzere did say she managed to find the highest quality furniture for us for the lowest price possible, plus, I'm sure Brother Ash wouldn't mind all this" [Zerolith]

"It's under the account of the orphanage rather than his own, but..." [Mara]

"Run run!" [Savel]

"Hey, the plates almost got broken!" [Charlotte]

"Sorry" [Savel]

"Sigh... can you guys play somewhere else for a while?" [Rean]

"No!" [Farhah]

"It's fine, I can bring them to the training hall with Behe" [Rafiah]

"I'll follow" [Elsa]

And the younger group goes to the training hall together with Sis Rafiah and Elsa. Right now, we are in the middle of renovation. Personally, I think that this is all a waste of resources and money as Housey can simply repair all of it with its fortress defense magic, but, there's a limit to how much it can be repaired, and repeated usage of it will ultimately lead to the same thing, that's why Grandpa Claude decided to just spurge some money on it. He is one of the people that Brother Ash entrusted the orphanage fund, with the other being Sis Mira backs at Malsia, so I guess it's fine

With the basic furniture all check, it's time to renovate other necessary things, and that's

"What material should we use to fortify the gate and the fences?" [Adventure]

"Well, Brother Ash will usually bring the highest quality materials to be use, but..." [Karon]

"Money..." [Kara]

"Yeah, plus, why buy it when he can bring it to us for free" [Mara]

"Wonder if we can ask Sis Mira for it" [Elise]

"Oh yeah! The Crystal Spawning block Malsia!" [Zerolith]

"But, it's hard alright for them to make it in such large quantities" [Rean]

"Guess you should ask your brother opinion for it" [Kronbir]

"If only the telephone can be use" [Kara]

"Now I wanted for that assignment of us to be finished!" [Mara]

"Well, let just see the bus golem and the training hall one last time" [Rean]

The bus golem have been damaged as well, but with Housey auto repair and Mr Erinmorlin expertise, it's in a good condition. Mr Erinmorlin had test drive it but just to be extra sure of it, plus, he himself ask me to drive it around

"Karon, it's your turn" [Rean]

"Right!" [Karon]

His eyes sparkle with excitement, well, who wouldn't. Hearing the bus golem sound, the younger group came running around it, and Farhah hijack Karon's position as the driver

"FARHAH!" [Elise]

~Gulp~

"It's dangerous! Don't run around" [Zerolith]

"It's true, but..." [Kara]

"Coming from him, it doesn't sound convincing at all" [Mara]

"Zerolith is right! It's dangerous so don't do it again!" [Rean]

"Right..." [Farhah]

"Hey! I'm also older, why didn't she listened to me!" [Zerolith]

"It's the elder aura" [Elise]

Well, that's true, plus, Zerolith rarely become strict with them, so the younger group won't take him seriously

After the test drive, Karon gives his feedback, saying everything is fine with it. Good

"You guys sure are lively this morning" [Diana]

"Princess!" [Other]

"Why did you come here?" [Charlotte]

"Well... is Claude here? I'll like to talk to him. Bond also" [Diana]

"Yeah! I'll go tell them!" [Savel]

I wonder what happen? As we walk with her toward the dining table, Princess Diana begin to talk

"Court!" [Claude]

"That's right. We can charge the Duke household and some prominent figures of the church, and for that..." [Diana]

Princess Diana begin to look at us. Her face that's happy with a bright smile outside turn into a heavy one. The mood also become more serious

"Can you guys go to the court?" [Diana]

"Sorry, can you please repeat it once more?" [Claude]

Grandpa Claude must be shocked hearing it, even all of us couldn't believe it at first but

"Is it really necessary for us to go there?" [Rean]

"Unfortunately it is. If possible I don't want any one of you to undergo any trial but those guy insist on it" [Diana]

"They're trying to defend themselves, saying that they're the victim here, a usual card that they always use" [Qis]

"The adventures and soldiers that have been helping you agree to go to the court to give their statement, but yours should be the most important one" [Diana]

"What are the chances that we can win?" [Kara]

"And the chances they will receive appropriate punishment?" [Mara]

"That's the hard part... they're simply corrupted, which is why, my father will be the judge himself" [Diana]

"!" [Others]

King Estel himself will be the judge? That's scary alright. We never met him before. Only Brother Ash had met with him (and quite a lot actually), and when we ask him about the king, he always says that King Estel isn't what he imagined King really is, giving the impression of a nice king, albeit when he is serious, his royal aura burst out, and that's when even Brother Ash scared of him

"And when is the trial?" [Claude]

"This is another problem, they insist on doing it yesterday but father manage to push it, well... tomorrow" [Diana]

"And how about their safety?" [Claude]

"Those clowns should know very well not to mess when the king himself become the judge. They already incur the king wrath, so you can rest assured on safety aspects" [Qis]

"I will also ask the Valkyrie to guard all of you until tomorrow, and of course, during the trial itself" [Diana]

"..." [Others]

"And as for us?" [Bond]

"The same. You guys are the victim as well" [Diana]

We look at each other, with quite a long pause. A court, it should be necessary for us to attend it, given it legal aspects, but, for them to be expose to it at such young age, it's scary but

"Alright, but please make sure they really are safe" [Claude]

"Thank you Claude, I will" [Diana]

"We also have prepared some nice clothes for you to wear tomorrow, and..." [Qis]

"And?" [Mara]

"Don't worry! I'll be there for all of you! Whatever happen, please trust the princess!" [Qis]

"Right!" [Other]

Princess Diana then proceed to eat together with us. She brought in a lot of food not only for us and the neighbour, but also for the adventure and knight that have been helping us as well. You could say that it's almost like a feast

That night, us in the older group have difficulty falling asleep, mainly because of the stress and anxiety, thinking what will happen tomorrow morning. The Valkyrie footsteps can be heard marching around, making sure we are safe, well, Mahsuri is here, so I don't think anyone will be sane enough to attack us

.

.

.

Morning have come, and with that, we have a light breakfast, prepare by Grandpa Claude all alone with some nice tea to help us relax. The royal carriage has come, taking us along with the Valkyrie.

Entering the castle, where the session will be held inside the royal chamber itself instead of the usual court as per the king order. The castle is huge, and so does this chamber, plus, it's pretty with all the gold and jewelry around.

We are then instructed to sit at one corner. There, the princess represent us all in this case.

(I hope everything will turn out alright) [Rean]

~Boom~

"What was that?" [Noble]

" Turn on the display from the Fortress defense magic!" [King Estel]

"Right away!" [Court magician]

The display, kinda like a mini watcher then being displayed to us all, and that's

"ASH!" [Diana]

"Just what is he doing!?" [Qis]

Plus, he looks furious

"Call him here, and don't let any unit engaged with him!" [King Estel]

"Right!" [Rude Captain]

And the rude captain call him. Tension is ever increasing with silence filling the chamber. The Rude Captain try to talk to Brother Ash but he's simply get ignore.

~Door open~

"Brother Ash!" [Charlotte]

But he isn't answering, instead

"What, what's happening!" [Old follower A]

One of Sis Rafiah friend mysteriously getting dragged up in the air, toward Brother Ash. Brother Ash grab him by his face before

(This is!) [Rean]

I don't want the younger group to look at it, so

(Blind!) [Rean]

(!) [Younger group]

"Sorry, but bear with it" [Rean]

~SLAM~

"Ughh..." [Old follower A]

That guy got slammed hard into the floor, before

"No, not us to!" [Old follower leader]

"Somebody help me!" [Duke wife]

~Slam~

"Cure" [Brother Ash]

I don't know why, but all of us are simply to shock to said anything to him. Is that really Brother Ash

~Slam~

"Pleae... release me..." [Duke wife]

"Cure" [Brother Ash]

I can't let Brother Ash get into trouble, so

"ASH! STOP IT!" [Diana]

~Slam~

"If you don't, you will get into more trouble!" [King Estel]

"Cure" [Brother Ash]

It's no good, he is simply too furious to listen

~Slam~

"Cure" [Brother Ash]

"Please, have some mercy..." [Old follower leader]

He's about to repeat it again, I should stop him

I dash towards Brother Ash, when suddenly

"That's enough Ash!" [Female adventure]

A strong looking female adventure stop him

"Release it" [Brother Ash]

"No, you should know that this will only cause you trouble" [Female adventure]

"Release it" [Brother Ash]

"Snap out of it!" [Female adventure]

Brother Ash then brought out his scythe, and the female adventure response with

"You brought this for yourself then!" [Female adventure]

She throw Brother Ash out, into the field... LITERALLY! smashing through the window along the process

"By my title as the saga, I swear to stop him, so please, give me some time" [Saga]

"!" [Other]

The Saga? As in, the SS rank adventure? What is she doing here!?
