"I look good as a Prince. Ah! I really can pull off anything." Jin said while combing his hair with his fingers as they head to Jungkook's place.

The maknae shook his head and focused until the drawing in his map was finally replaced with a picture of his place.

He stopped and immediately grabbed his hyung to hide behind a tree when he saw that someone's exiting his past self's house.

It was the past Jungkook's father with papers in his hands and the past Jungkook was tailing behind.

"The King gave you these letters that contain illegal orders? And he made you steal the highest matchmaker family's relic?"

The young servant nodded and remained staring at the ground, "You should have told me. The matchmakers are powerful especially the highest family! The King must be out of his mind."

"B-but... They will hurt you and mama if I will not follow..."

Mr. Jeon sighed, "D-do not go back to the palace, I will go and serve them again."

"But Father–"

"Jungkook. Listen to me," The past Jungkook looked into his father's doe eyes which he inherited, "You do not deserve to be treated like this."

"But the King wants me to serve him..."

"And I am your Father."

Jimin, Yoongi and Namjoon are together as they kept on walking towards Yoongi's place.

"What do you think will happen once Hoseok hyung is back?" Jimin asked, his hands on his back while skipping a bit.

"I'll make sure to never leave a day without bonding with him." Yoongi answered, smiling a little.

"Same." Namjoon said and stopped, "We are here." Yoongi looked at his map and the drawing changed into a picture.

"That's amazing! I want Y/n's powers too!" Jimin said while peeking at his hyung's map.

"Wait, why is mine changing too?" The leader asked, his map showing the same picture as Yoongi's.

"I think you two live in the same palace?" Jimin said, "Oh! Y/n said before that Namjoon hyung is her servant then you are a General, Yoongi hyung!"

The two hyungs nodded, "That's right. Let's go in and figure things out."

"But how are we gonna do that?"

Namjoon's eyes landed on the servants entering the palace with baskets of foods in their hands. He smirked, "I think I know how."

That's how they ended up carrying baskets of foods in their shoulders and when they arrived inside, they immediately brought it to where it should be brought and began to roam around the palace.

They ended up at the field and immediately hid when they found the past Yoongi entering the area with a sword in his hand, he's in his General outfit which is, honestly too heavy for the present Yoongi's taste.

Then a woman's voice suddenly called for the General, he turned around with a blank expression but bowed when he saw who it is.

"Your Highness."

A woman in a gown entered the scene with a jolly expression that really stunned the trio.

"General! You should teach me how to use a sword." She suddenly snatched the General's weapon and almost fell back when she realized how heavy it was. Thanks to the past Yoongi's reflexes, he managed to caught the Princess through encircling his arm around her waist.

He swiftly took his sword back, "It is dangerous for a Princess to hold a sword."

"Why?" She put her hands in both side of her waist, "Because I am a woman?"

He just looked away and turned around to start his training, the woman still not giving up to convince the other.

"I will not tell my father! I promise!"

"That will put my position in danger. You do not want that right, Princess Y/n?"

The Princess just crossed her arms, "Fine! But I will watch you do your training." The General just replied with a shrug and turned around, the smile on his lips didn't escape the trio's eyes.

The trio looked at each other, "I think we should leave before we get caught." Namjoon said and the two nodded.

They fell silent for a while before Jimin spoke up, "I think it will be awkward to face Y/n now, especially that her personality right now is far different from her past self."

The hyungs agreed, "I think it's more awkward for Yoongi hyung since it looks like your past self has a secret admiration for Y/n." Namjoon said, giving his hyung a mocking smile.

"Correction, the past Y/n." Yoongi answered and glared at the leader who just chuckled.

This time, they ended up at the back of the palace since they don't know the way around and when they are about to leave, they heard a familiar voice.

"That's your voice, right?" Yoongi asked Namjoon who nodded.

They peeked carefully and there, they saw two person talking to each other and they immediately knew who it was.

"Hyung, answer me honestly. I am asking you this out of concern and not because I am suspecting you. Did you stole the relic?" The past Namjoon asked his brother.

His brother smirked, "What if I did?"

In a blink, the brother was pinned against the wall, the other was glaring at him, "Bring it back, hyung. Everyone knows how much it is important for the matchmakers and how dangerous it is."

His brother laughed, "No, I am just joking my brother. I will not do such, I may be like this but our parents never taught us to do illegal things."

The servant sighed and stepped backwards, "I apologize for my actions, I just do not want you to be in danger."

His brother, Jackson Wang nodded, "I understand. The relic and that family is too dangerous and we made a promise to protect them at all costs. That is why I will never do that."

The past Namjoon smiled, "I am grateful."

"I think I should be the one being grateful, you took over my position once I told our parents that I do not want to serve the highest matchmakers but they still made me promise though. Still, thank you, brother."

"It is fine."
