Today was his first day and so far it went well. And right now he was with Arthur training. The male needed to train for a tournament which was happening and he obliged.

"Let's do this, shall we?"

He nodded and they started to parry blows. Yes, Arthur was good, but he was better than him, and that simply because of his instincts. They warned him where the blow would come, and Arthur still needed to learn so much about sword skill and fighting at all.

"Impressive. Not many can hold up with me. But this makes me wonder...why to choose to be my manservant?"

He chuckled and ending up swooping the prince down on the ground. A hand he held in front with Arthur takes so that he pulled him up with ease.

"I am not just a manservant but as well here to protect you. I would probably be a knight when I wouldn't be a nobody."

Was his reply and Arthur agreed with him. But because he was a nobody; there was no chance of him ending up as a knight.

"I guess so."

This was the end of the conversation as both continued to parry and fight. Until he had to do the chores, and god was that a long list. It would take ages and he wasn't really like it but decided to do them. It was in his job description. So with this, he started to do his chores...

Way later in the evening...

Merlin plopped down and felt exhausted, and lucky he didn't need to learn about the etique. Sometimes it was really a blessing, but sometimes it was a curse as well. But right now it was a blessing as he didn't need to read this.

"Arthur is a slave driver."

He whined out and Gaius chuckled and he continued to complain and rant on Gaius about his chores. In the end, they ended up having a conversation about this, and soon he ended up going to bed, as he was exhausted.

Day two

The morning continued and he went to Gwen, with the armor. He would do this on his own, but it would be a bit suspicious for him to know this. But then again he knows how to fight, so it wouldn't or shouldn't be too surprising, but he wasn't wanting to get more attention.

So he ended up going and Gwen taught him what he knew and he was impressed by her knowledge. Even when she said that it wasn't that interesting. For him it was and he told her this. They continued to talk for a few more minutes until he had to go to Arthur...

So changing someone's armor was way different than himself going to change into armor. That was why he was slower and a bit more clumsy. This led to Arthur teasing him about him and he just gave him a sarcastic remark back.

"Anyway, are you nervous about the tournament?"

The questioned male denied and he doubts this a bit but wasn't going to call him out on this. He on the other hand was getting more nervous and more scared about this. Since he was there, his HI started to buzz slightly. Which was confusing as there was no danger near? This is why he shrugged it off.

---

So he watched right now the knights walk, but one in particular knight was getting his attention -not in a good way- as his instincts kicked in slight. The male wore a yellow cape, had short brown hair and brown eyes as well. His instinct warned him about, not the male itself but about the shield. This confused him deeply as the shield looked normal. For now, all he could do was watch, and hope that his HI wasn't right. But when was his HI ever wrong?

---

This was interesting to watch and he felt giddy now as watching Arthur fight. Each blow he was skipping around and getting nervous as well. Why he wasn't sure but he was nervous about him getting hit. And when he won he cheered as putting the fist up, with a bright expression. Why was it since he met Arthur and whenever he was near, he felt alive? This was strange, but he shrugged this off. It was probably nothing.
