"Finally I kept my promise to my Sworn friend"

Everyone turned around and looked at Alicia's grandfather. "Promise to your Sworn friend?" asked Litwin.

"Yeah. Your grandfather told me to find the mysterious beauty who can control your powers but it turns out to be my granddaughter" Alicia's grandfather told and smiled contentedly since he kept up his
words.

"I see. So, my grandfather was your Sworn friend?" asked Daw'. The grandfather nodded.
"When we were Young, we used to take classes together. He was sharp and brave while I was timid. He always used to encourage me to stand up for myself and supported me." he paused and swallowed.

"We became good friends. I was throned earlier than your grandfather and my planet was suffering from a meteor hit. He helped me through the crisis and hard times and we become sworn friends"

"That's wonderful to hear" the King of Hesy told. He then continued "Sorry to say but we got some kingdom's matters to handle, so we shall take our leave"

"We can understand."The King of Mikra told. They shook hands and left. Litwin's Father, Mother and Grandmother left first along with Asheil and Zahri. The others took another spaceship.

Adrian, Daw', Isaa and Litwin got in and the guard drove the spaceship. Adrian's mouth which was unexpectedly closed for a long time opened again.

"Does Alicia have any cousins? Everyone is getting married except me"

"Yeah." Litwin said.

"Whoa! Really?"

"Yeah, and they are married. Still interested?" asked Litwin.

Adrian raised his hands in surrender. Isaa laughed at Adrian while he scoffed at her and asked "She is getting married and why in the world am I m not getting married?"

Isaa pulled a face at him and Adrian gritted back. "If you want to continue having a friend, hold him back. Isaa's pinches freaking hurt" Daw' said.

"I ain't pinching Adrian. Instead its......." Isaa dragged her sentence and walked towards Adrian who was looking horrified.

"Tickle attack!!" Isaa completed and started tickling Adrian. Adrian was laughing like a maniac.

Litwin smiled at them when Daw' moved towards him and asked "Is Everything alright Lit?" "Yeah. Why?" Litwin asked. "You look kind of down" Daw' said. Litwin just looked into his hands and spoke "I don't know Daw'. Aren't I supposed to be Happy and stuff but instead I m nervous"

"It's because you are worried about the ruling and responsibilities and seals which will be given to you after your wedding" Daw' reasoned out.

They arrived at Hesy and went back to do their respective jobs. Litwin will be given seals after one week of his marriage so he was supposed to learn all the rules by heart.

He learned 842 books and 974 were remaining and he had to revise 593 books. Until five months ago, he was not given these books cause the King didn't want to make him feel pressured.

He went to the library and sat down and took the books to learn. Within half an hour he completed everything and was arranging those books back when a book fell.

Curiosity got the best of him and took the book and sat down and took a random page and read.

'I love thee with a love that shall not die,
till the sun grows cold
and the stars grow old.'
