And just as Cale knows his gut was right he can't help but curse his gut for it as he looks at the smiling Alberu in front of him.

Since yesterday he can't help but get a bad gut feeling after Zed visited him.

And today Alberu was sitting in his room while smiling as he told Cale about the good news.

Cale swears one day he will get back at that damn king. Just wait. A certain blond king sneezes somewhere.

"Repeat that again?" Cale asked for the third time but Alberu didn't mind and happily repeated what he just said.

"Crown prince Alberu along with his instructor, Cale Henituse, and some ministers of the Roan kingdom are to go on an 'official' 'public' journey around the western continent for the reason of peace treaty and to improve our economical and political trades."

Cale felt like his soul had left his body. Peace? Public? Economical? Political? Treaty?

Cale felt like pulling all the hair off of Alberu's head right there and then as he said that while smiling.

"This is just bullshit." "Young master language. The kids are here." Ron warns him as he points toward the kids.

Cale turned to the kids who were looking at him with curious eyes and sigh.

Then he clears his throat as he changes his wording. "This is just cow poop."

Ron's smile twitches as Alberu can't help but let out a laugh though he quickly covers it up and looks away as if nothing happened when he sees the scary smile Ron was wearing on his face.

"Ahem Cale anyways this is to ensure that you don't do anything crazy." Cale looked at him clearly offended.

"I have never done anything to be labelled as crazy." Alberu just gives him an unimpressed look.

"Explain how you came into the crown prince's bedroom in the middle of the fucking night and kidnapped him.

After the kidnapping you dragged me into a cave and said something about stealing a dragon.

Not to mention your stealing a dragon 'quietly' plan turn into blowing up a fucking mountain along with a mansion and got the Tolz family exiled for secretly carrying out illegal slave trade.

Which was only a cover up for the torture chamber of the dragon which was reveal during the explosion!"

Alberu was still smiling but Cale was not looking at that smile. Heck he wasn't even looking at the crown prince.

"Um that-" Cale tried to defend himself but was cut off again by Alberu. "Should I reveal more of your crimes?"

Then he held up his fingers. "You have committed arson, stealing, torture, fraud, kidnapping, scamming, breaking public belongings, murder, forgery, vandalism, blasphemy toward the gods, treason, impersonation, blackmailing-"

"OK i get it." Cale grumbled as he saw that Alberu wasn't going to stop anytime soon.

"Those bastards deserve it anyways." Alberu could only roll his eyes. "Anyway I'm coming as well as the 'heroes'."

Alberu grimaces at the mention of them. He still doesn't like that black haired kid who beat Cale up.

"Do they really have to come." Cale didn't bother hiding his dislike. "Well if you don't want it I can ask my father to-."

Alberu smiled brightly as he found the reason to leave the group. If it was Cale who said he doesn't doesn't them around he was sure his father would allow them to leave Choi Han and the others.

"Wait no need." Alberu flinches as his smile twitches and turns into a frown. "You want to go around?"

He asked himself if he heard it right. Cale turned to smile at him and Alberu didn't like that smile one bit.

"Humans, are we scamming someone?" Raon flies toward them and lands in Cale's lap as the two kittens jump into Alberu's lap.

"Yes. I will be needing Ron so I need someone to babysit you during our 'trip'."

Cale smiled gently toward Alberu but to Alberu it was the devil smile that Cale gave whenever he felt like being petty.

"What?" That's the only word he could utter. "He's gonna be your new babysitter."

Cale's smile turned even brighter as he clapped his hands as he just found something so pleasant.

If those two royal pain in the asses are going to drag him into their bullshit and make him suffer, then he will just make it so they will suffer with him.

"Wait- Cale... let's talk about this." Alberu nervously laughs. "Oh my look at the time. I'm tired of your highness goodnight."

Cale bid him goodbye as Alberu was kicked out of the room by a gust of wind before he could even process what happened.

After Alberu was kicked out Ron turned to Cale. "Will it really be ok, young master?"

Cale just waved him off and lay down. He covered himself with his blanket and turned the other way so his back was facing Ron.

"Yes. I don't want your son chasing me with a knife because I took you away from him."

Ron's eyes shook as he was shocked for a moment before a smile returned to his face.

It wasn't his usual benign smile but a genuine one.
