Chapter 49: Knowing The Countries
"Goshujin!"
"Goshujin!"
"Goshujin!!"
"What?! What?!! Whaaaaatttt?!!!!"
"You should wake up, it's almost afternoon."
"So?"
"You should stop sleeping."
"Do you know when I slept after that ruckus yesterday, if I checked time well, it was around 4?"
"There's nothing special about that Goshujin, successful people don't sleep too much. You should stand up."
Where's the lie in what she said? I dragged myself off the bed and put on a robe afterwards I walked out of my room and to the bathing chamber which was like a swimming pool. I entered and sat down.
'Yesterday was a lot, by the looks of it, they've probably never had that colour before.'
"Yea, she mentioned it."
'I think I'll be the strongest.'
"No doubt."
'And we'll be able to find your sisters.'
"As you should."
I shook my head, I can't get used to her bullshit.
~plop~
My gaze sharpened as the waters began to bubble from opposite me.
"Who is there?"
"No need to fret..." He rose from within the water, my eyes widened with what I saw next.
'What the f**k is this brat doing with a naked woman in my bathe!!!!' I wanted to go crazy in and out.
"Maid, you can leave now, I will reward you and your family handsomely and tell the tales of how you bathed the body of Prince Malik of Qualis." He said. The maid immediately ran out of the pool naked.
"Why do you look like you just saw a ghost...?"
"This is my quarters."
"I am well aware of that, however, your quarters are more elegant than mine hence I will be using yours from now."
"On whose permission?"
"I don't need permission to do so"
Ever since reaching this world, no one, no one in has made me this mad.
"Denethor!!!!!!" My voice pierced the entire house.
Denethor came running immediately.
"Young lord."
"Throw this intruder out."
"He's not an intruder, he's the young Prince of —"
"I said, throw the intruder out," I repeated glaring at him.
"Your highness, I think you sho—"
"Are you okay Denethor? is that out to throw someone out?"
"I apologize young Lord." He immediately lifted him out of the bathe, "What about his clothes?"
"Throw him out naked."
"Okay young Lord," He said and walked outside with the little brat on his shoulder kicking the air and trying to break free.

"Why won't you leave?" Seeing him highly pissed me, every bit of him annoyed him. His dark skin, his yellow eyes, the golden ornaments around him, his Mesopotamian style of dressing, his ears and nose piercing and mostly the naughty look on his face.
"I have deemed you worthy to be my friend."
"How old are you?"
"I'm eleven."
"I'm thirteen."
"I see, so we are kinda like mates."
"No we are not... are you retarded?"
"No, I'm a genius."
His responses continued to grate on my nerves.
"I don't want to be your friend and I don't want you to come to my quarters or talk to my maids ever again," I said.
He looked at me which felt like he was assessing my worth.
"Are you a secret Prince pretending to be a Duke's son?"
His questions threw me off.
"what? Why would you ask that?"
"The way you sit, the way you talk, you are worthy to be a Prince, is it Vasea, or magic Kingdom Aphoedal... no you don't seem good with magic you can't be from Aphoedal, perhaps Voyicuria?"
"What are those?"
"Kingdoms, don't you know kingdoms. Every Prince's fundamental training is learning about the three continents, though much is not known about the other two but every Prince must memorise all twelve countries that exist within our continent including their Prince. Seeing as you don't know that, I guess you are not a Prince."
"Yes I am not, can you tell me all twelve countries."
"If I do will you be my friend?"
At this point, it was getting hard to dismiss his persistency. "Alright."
"Yes!!" He exclaimed with a wide mouth. "Then I'll tell you as promised and even tell you their ranks and the area they are most powerful in. Let's start with Floating city Aslintis, which is considered the most beautiful country on the entire continent, their military strength I can say is fair but they are mainly aerial forces, they can't be considered the strongest, but they've never been defeated in a war.
The second is Binneniel Empire, they have the strongest military force and population, they are also called the city of gold, the empire has access to an elderwyrm gold dragon's lair, and the dragon was slain many years ago, so they mine gold endlessly. Hence they are quite rich financially, they have money for everything. The third is Nibodour the city of giants, as the name suggests, that is where the majority of the giant race reside and they also live with dwarfs, their city defence is formidable and they have an impenetrable metal wall that cannot even be brought down by a dragon's breath. Fourth we have Voyicuria, it seats at the centre of the continent and is a peninsula that controls all the voyage routes of the continent, I don't know how they managed to achieve that, the fifth is Qualis, the city of sand, we are the richest kingdom, we may be small but we are very rich, our riches are like the sand of the deserts.
'...why do I feel like he's exaggerating...'
"Then sixth we have Crekya, an elven kingdom, they conceal themselves from the majority and only respond to diplomatic issues or issues that concern the continent but they are known to have a very strong military strength, seventh we have Resan Empire, who is like a baby Empire but they are not to be underestimated, they are militarily strong and have a lot of Primas, they also have a young Emperor, well the country became an empire about twenty years ago so they're still growing. Eighth is Aphoedal the magic kingdom, these are strong because that's where the magic tower is located, the home of all mages.
Ninth, Vasea, tenth Phesea, those two are referred to as the twin kingdom. They were founded by twins, so the royal family are kind of blood-related even today. They rarely go against each other even though they are far away. Eleventh Qisea, also a kingdom with many many Primas and lastly we have Saeteron is a religious kingdom, their monarch is referred to as pope. That's all..."
"I see, thank you very much." 'With this, I have a little bit of information.' "What about the other continents, don't you know anything about them?"
"No, history has it that all four continent used to live together but after numerous war divided into four including the demonic continent, the main three stopped meddling in each other's business but because our northern and Eastern border is facing the demonic continent we face dangerous attacks by demonic beasts, ferocious and huge demonic beasts, these attacks are taken care of by Primas. One day when my core ripens, I will be a Prima."
"Yes, you will."
"So, can I come to your quarters freely now that I am your friend?"
My eyes fell on him with an iris full of irritation, but a promise is a promise, "However, don't talk to my maids"
"Who do I then talk to ?"
"The walls, or the Knights. Just don't dare talk to my maids and don't talk to me say you permit me or you ordain me, if you do any of those, I'll break your limbs."
"Hmm, hmm, you are a fierce one. I respect you."
"Young lord!" Caste the butler called as he entered the parlour, he reached in front of me and bowed.
"Prince Evan is here." He said with a joyous tone.
"Why?" I replied with a rundown tone.
"I do not know but isn't it a good thing that he is here, isn't he the one you are supposed to serve." He said.
I stood up and walked towards the door, it was understandable that people from the Palace think that way, but I am not here to serve anybody.
~BAM!~
As he was about to enter I swung the door and closed it.
"Young lord?!!! your highness!!!!" He shouted running and quickly opening the door, tending to the Prince who fell on his butt due to the impact.
"My head, my head, ahhhh my head arrrggghhh." He shouted in frustration holding his swollen forehead, his tone was almost crying as he let out his frustration.
"My prince, I sincerely apologise, I had no idea you were coming, I left my door open."
"Young lord but I—
I glared at him as he was about to finish that statement, he could not help but pause.
"My Prince, I have no one to blame but my irresponsible butler, who did not close the door nor inform me of your arrival, he will be beaten two hundred heavy strokes on your command," I said, slightly bowing my head, slightly, while hiding my demeanour which expressed my level of enjoyment of this scenery.
