《The Great Barrier Master》12.Chapter 4: Let's actually know the NPC's name ! (part 2)
Advertisement
After i finished changing my clothes, i gone out of my room. Just right outside of the door however, a maid was waiting. Aside from the usual maid clothes, she's a beastkin with yellow eyes, hair, fox ears and tail with white tip.
Though i have seen beastkin's working in here before, this is the first time i saw her. More over, she was looking at me with eyes of devotion.
...Probably just admiring the angel behind me though.
"...Lady Yukari, the king want to have breakfast with you."
Ho? The opportunity opened itself. Maybe all that luck is useful after all.
It's kind of strange though... I never give out this name to anyone aside from that angel.
...Could it be a surprise event?
"O-Okay, i will be right on it. Thank you miss..."
"... Can you please stop messing around, Lady Yukari ?"
"...Boo~.You're no fun, Ran."
"And please don't pout like that either, Lady Yukari. Think about your dignity for awhile."
...Yeah yeah, i know it was Ran.... Really, you're no fun either.
"I'm a bit surprise though, how could you get in here so fast ?"
"I'm also surprised myself. After i have done what you asked earlier, i'm thinking of a way to return to you when i stumble upon a maid's application test for the palace. After i successfully got the job as a maid here, today i have been called to greet you in person... It's as if everything just happen to follow my way."
"Yeah... her power is just that frightening, isn't it?"
"It's just as you said, Lady Yukari.... Speaking of, where is her now? I just felt her coming into this place just a moment ago..."
"She's just doing some of the thing i told her to do... She'll be back, i'm sure. Hurry up, we can't let the king wait isn't it?"

8:45 am
"...On perhap of this kingdom, let us begin our morning meal."
Politely , the king declare the begining of our breakfast. Currently we're in the dining room on the north side of the castle, eating on the long table set in the middle of the room. The maid, Ran included, were standing on the side of the wall.
Well then, Thank for the food~!... even this get translated.
The stir-fry grasshopper salad today is also delicious.
"...Pardon me, is that what you do in your homeland?" (princess)
"Um...Y-Yes it is, Your Highness. Before every meal, we give our gratitude to the nature for giving us food."
" Is that so... how lucky of you. To still be able to give thank to nature..."
"?"
"Ah... No-Nothing!"
Hm... I see. So it's like that....
"...S-Speaking of, I'm very sorry that you have been dragged here because of our trouble."
Ah... So they do feel sorry about that. This would rule out the "cruel royalty" stereotype.
" Ah no... It's fine... Being dragged by that angel, it cannot be helped, right?"
A drop of tear gently fall to the ground. Seeing that, the princess rushed to my side and hugged me tightly.
...Uwaaan~~, i should have slept earlier.
"...Truly, we're very sorry."
...Oops, they look really depressed now. Even the king have clenched his hand underneath the table.
I guess i shouldn't said "how can i go home now" , or i won't fulfilled my objective ... It's so tempting though.
"It's okay, really.... Say, since it was so hectic yesterday, i haven't had a chance to learn your name. Can I ?"
"... I supposed we haven't introduced ourselve before. Very well."
The king then slowly put his right hand over his chest, before introducing himself. The princess is also doing the same thing.

"My name is Marden Vinthas, King of Regrana. I welcome you into this kingdom."
"And my name is Adile Vinthas, The First Princess. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"...My name is Maribel Hearn...Though i may be inexperience, please take care of me."
"..."
A moment of silent continue to go on before it have been broken by laughter. After a while, the king spoke while still chuckle a little.
"Hahaha... Miss, you should only said that when you're about to get married, you know."
"Y-Yeah, i only said that as a joke, since it's too gloomy ealier..."
"Is that so...I see..."
"Um... Let resume eating our breakfast, please. The salad was really delicious."
"Hahaha... You're right! Servants, bring us more food! Let treat her more of our proud delicacy!"
"Father, please restrain yourself ! You're becomed way too excited again."
...Well, with that i have known the two's name.
Next, let turn to the magician.

Rise of the Desolate Star
“The soul is a sword. The body its sheath. Adversity is the hammer, while courage is the anvil. Oh, and son? Your tears and snot, they’re just the sparks that chip away at the impurities, like dungflies off a sow’s arse.” - Kendric Farrow Ever since he could remember, young Skyle Farrow’s body and mind have been hammered relentlessly like red-hot steel against the anvil of adversity under the watchful eyes of his father. All the while, Skyle’s heart and soul have been nurtured by the enduring warmth of his loving mother. Skyle has always asked why a simple farmboy would have need for all manner of skills like hand-to-hand combat, wilderness tracking, archery, beast taming, geography, history, politics, and even embroidery! The one vital question remains unasked, however: just what are his parents preparing him for? The invasion of a demonic horde? The advent of an age of war and endless bloodshed? The dark legacy of an ancient mystical power? A desperate struggle to save the lives of those he holds dear? The end of the world? It is a good thing he never asked these questions, for the answer would have been yes - to all of them. Now Skyle must take his first steps beyond the sheltered world he has known. He has been raised strong, but is he strong enough? Welcome to a tale of friendship, love, loss and heartbreak. It chronicles the growth of a young boy into a legend whose path will shatter the very foundations of the world. Expect a rich, detailed world with vivid characters. Each will pursue their own complex agendas due to realistic motivations. The MC will be overpowered, not through liberal use of plot armor but rather the deliberate application of arduous training, clever thinking, and nurtured talent. Battles will be graphic, victories will be bittersweet, and defeat will not mean the end of the world - for time waits for no one and life goes on whether we like it or not.

Spear of Aiste
It was a beautiful day outside. The sun was shining, fluffy white clouds adorning the sky. Birds were twittering, flowers were blooming, the trees’ leaves were rustling under a gentle breeze. Spear couldn’t see any beauty in it, though. He didn’t notice any of those things – except for the sun hurting his eyes. He fantasized about running away from the village and going as far as the end of the world; he didn’t believe for a moment that he’d be able to. He tried to think of somewhere else to hide, but nothing came to mind; he kept wandering aimlessly, hoping to delay the inevitable.
