Walking through the hall on the way to Ahmed's room, I notice how utterly stunning the pace is. The room we were in was also just as beautiful, not to mention all the clothes we are wearing are incredibly high quality.

  I guess to buy sves from across the world you would have to be pretty wealthy, but to throw all these high-quality things at us has got me rather suspicious.

  Hearing a rather rge sound I focus, and I realised Atanta’s heartbeat keeps getting louder and louder. Turning my head, I see she is looking out into the city.

  “Is everything ok?”

  “Aww Orb, are you worried about me, how adorable.”

  Turning my head away, I say, “I take back my .”

  Poking my left cheek, Atanta says, “Looks like someone loves his big sis, Lanta.”

  Poking me on my right cheek, Anto says, “Orb being so obsessed with your sister is bad for your health.”

  “I don’t want to hear that from you Anto! And whely did I agree you be my sister.”

  Snickering, Atanta says, “Look how he is trying to feign anger instead of telling us his true emotions, what was that word Suzuka said, ah yes you’re a tsundere.”

  “Shut up!” I scream as they both start to ugh.

  Seeing the door ahead at the end of the corridor I run up and say, “Hurry up slow poke.” Then when I reach the door, I open it and say, “Brother I have arrived.”

  But to my surprise what I see is my brother being tied up mid-air. Rope has been pced on the walls and with that rope my brother has been pletely tied up in the air, and underh him Scheherazade looks with an evil smile.

  “o see you Orb, but could I ask you for a little help here.”

  Bowing I say, “Sorry for interrupting your bondage py, I will be leaving now.”

  As I walk away, my brother screams, “Orb this isn't what it looks like!”

  “Don’t worry Ahmed, your standing has only degraded a little bit in my mind, but I think we should put the whole brother thing to rest, also I would like a 300m distaween us at all times.”

  “No, don’t leave me!”

  Grabbing my head, Scheherazade says, “This isn’t some kind of kink, this bastard keeps trying to work even though I explicitly told him to rest, so until he learns how to behave, I will keep him strung up here.”

  With my face brightening up, I say, “That’s good, I thought my brother was actually some deranged pervert.”

  Grabbing my fad bringing it closer to her, Scheherazade says, “What do you mean perverted, this is art! Do you think it is easier to tie someone up with this much string whilst finding a baween pain and pleasure.”

  As she touches one of the robes, Ahemed lets out a weird sound. “Did you hear that, something like this only be achieved by someone who has mastered the art of bohis be nothing else than gods will, not a sihing is perverted about it.”

  Looking at the deranged face this beautiful woman is making, is rather off-putting so I mutter, “Looks like I got the pervert wrong.”

  Turning her head towards me, Scheherazade says, “Looks like you o uand the perfe I have created.”

  From my right, I hear someone scream, “trol yourself you pervert!

  To my right, I see another mao a chair. “Who is he?”

  “That is the royal vizier; Adi ibn Zayd. And this bastard is plicit in not allowing our dear king to rest.”

  “It is my job to make sure our king is on schedule!”

  Walking up to him Scheherazade tightens the ropes, and says, “He ’t work if he is dead he!”

  Laughing a little, Adi says, “I outrank you, so I and you to do as I say.”

  Tightening the ropes yet again Scheherazade says, “Not in this life or your will you ever and your older sister got that!”

  “Yes, I do sister please spare me!”

  As Adi and Scheherazade argue, I walk over to Ahmed and free him from the ropes. “Thank you, Brother.”

  “It was my pleasure, but what did you call me here for.”

  “Well, you see-.”

  Suddenly someone bursts through the door interrupting our versation. “I heard the dragon, and the witch are here!”

  “Oh no, shorty is back to get his ass kicked again.”

  Entering an offensive position, the man prepares to strike Atanta, “Time to die!!!”

  As he draws his on, he is kicked in the side by Scheherazade. “I taught I told you not to pick fights with uests, idiot!”

  Rec from her ki mere seds, the mas on one knee and says, “Oh dy Scheherazade, you are looking as beautiful as ever.” Taking her hand, he says, “Would you grace my life with the gift of marriage?”

  With a pletely emotionless expression, she says, “Not in a million years.”

  The weight of her words sends the man flying bato the wall. “But why my queen?”

  “Because of all your childish behaviour. You already look like a perma 14 year old so at least act like an adult. I literally had to put your room in the inner pace so you would be isoted enough not to cause any trouble.”

  Her words send him flying bato the wall, again. “But at least I look cool?”

  “Not in the slightest, your sense of style makes it even harder for me to see you as an adult.”

  Laying on the floor with tears in his eyes, the man says, “Why, why does no one love me!”

  Walking up to him I grab him by the shoulders and say, “You look so awesome, I pletely love the braids you have, and your tattoo design is amazing. You look so cool.”

  With tears he says, “Do you really think that?”

  “Absolutely!”

  Getting up with a triumphant smile, he says, “Scheherazade, I love you please marry me.”

  Deadpan, she says, “No.”

  Shocked, he gets sent flying aime, but I mao catch him before he flies into the wall. In my arms, he says, “I ’t go on.”

  “Would you like some dy?” Anto asks him.

  “Ok,” the man says as he eats it pletely disheartened aed.

  “Now that will be 70000 Lupas.”

  Surprised the man says, “What?”

  “Nothing is free in this life, cough up the dough.”

  “I refuse!” The man says as he is sshed by Anto's dagger.

  Getting struck makes his personality ge from sad to happy, so with a vigorous energy the man says, “Here take as much gold as you want!” While handing us a sack of golden s.

  “Thank you for doing business, I also have ygers as well?”

  “Sure!!!!!”

  Looking up at Anto on my shoulder, I say, “Don’t go around maniputing vulnerable people, and give that back.”

  Hugging his moight, Anto says, “This was an equivalent exge, I turned his sadness into happiness, and I got money iurn.”

  “You shouldn’t moise people’s emotions like that.”

  “Your such a sti the mud Orb, maybe your personality needs a little bit of a ge.”

  With his dagger in his hand, Anto tries to stab me. This annoying little brat, I thought he was actually a grown-up after yesterday, but he really is just a brat!

  Behind us, my brother starts to ugh nonstop and says, “You guys are a riot!” But the moment after he says this he falls down to his knees and says, “What’s this, I lost all strength in my legs.” With a tired expression.

  Instantly all three of Ahmed's panions ruo him. All of them have faces full of worry.

  Adi says, “Sis go get it ready.”

  “On it.”

  Walking up to them, I say, “Is everything ok?”

  “Yes, we just don’t need him falling asleep that’s all.”

  Almost closing his eyes, Ahmed says, “I am feeling sort of sleepy.”

  Grabbing and keeping his eyes open, the cool-looking man starts stig out his tongue while making stupid faces. “Look at me my king, aren’t these faces so cool.”

  “They look just as stupid as usual,” Ahmed says as he starts to fall asleep again.

  Pahe cool-looking man says, “If you fall asleep, I will give you a big kiss on the lips.”

  Suddenly energy fills his whole body as he says, “Easifatan if you e anywhere near my lips, death will be the least of your worries.”

  Adi says, “Looks like that worked wonders. But SIS, I NEED YOU TO HURRY UP!”

  Running back over, Scheherazade says, “I got it right here.” In her hand, she holds an apple. When she arrives over to us without hesitation, she shoves the apple right into Ahmed's mouth.

  After biting down on it Ahmed jumps up with energy and says, “That’s the stuff!” Walking over to me Ahmed says, “Sorry about all the drama, but I am alright now.”

  Sighing, I say, “Well if you say so.”

  “Getting ba topic, it is just that I apologised to all the guards you guys assaulted and robbed yesterday.”

  “Oh sorry about that.”

  “No real issue, except one of the people you assaulted was not having it. His name is Yamal and he said he wouldn’t accept an apology unless it came directly from the person who hit him, and he also demanded a fair bit of pensation. So, I would like you to give it to him.”

  “I am really, really sorry!”

  “Don’t worry isn’t it the older siblings' responsibility to take care of the younger.”

  With joy, I say, “Big brother!”

  Scheherazade beside us says, “ you two just aal for a moment.”

  “I will be off then, Atanta, Anto let's go.” Turning around I see that both of them and Easifatan are gone.

  Φ Smmed against a wall I see the red-haired woman falling in my arms. What is happening!! As she pushes her whole-body weight on me, I look away from her body and say, “I-I-If your sick you should talk to Scheherazade.”

  “Nht now all I want is you,” she says pushing her body even closer. Panig I send my head straight up, so I don’t look at her boobs.

  What the hell is going on not even 24 ho was she ripping into me as if I killed her pet, did she succumb to my overflowing charm; you are looking quite sexy today, and you even redid your braid, you handsome devil. No wait, nothing in this life is free, this must be some sort of trap, yeah, she is pying you this must be for some sort of bckmail.

  Looking down at her I say, “Your ploy won’t work on me.”

  As I see her face, I am suddenly given a kiss. This feels amazing!!

  As she pulls back, she says, “Do you want to go to the bedroom!”

  Suddenly all the blood leaves my head and rushes to another pce. Pig the beauty up, I run towards my room, “Don’t worry baby we are almost there.”

  “I ’t wait darling.”

  As I reach my room at lightning speed, I go to open the door but I stop in my tracks. Wait, what about Scheherazade, if I do this, I will mess up my ces with her, but you saw how mean she was to you today, you probably don’t even have a ce with her, and if you reject this beauty now who knows when this opportunity might e around a sed time.

  “I ’t wait darling!”

  Suddenly all the blood leaves my head and logic goes out the window. Opening the door, I turn around and say, “Let’s get star-.”

  Φ Twisting his neck he gets knocked unscious. “It is really disheartening how often this tactic works. Well, whatever, it is time for me to start my iigation.”

  Feeling something nd on my head, I hear, “Let me join too!”

  “Anto, go away.”

  “No this seems way more fun than what Orb is doing.”

  “I don’t care, go t sand or whatever kids do.”

  Bending his body forward he pces his fa front of mi upside down, then Anto says in a calm voice, “Lanta, I am worried about you. Your as have been strange, and I just thought it would be beneficial to have someo your side.”

  “Are you really Anto?”

  Being hyperactive again Anto says, “Of course I am silly!”

  Sighing I say, “Well I guess your telep would be useful, ok you e!”

  “Yippee! Also, I take his daggers?”

  “I would say yes, but Orb would pin. We just snatch them before we leave Jedidiah. Now let’s go.”

  1 Gold = 10,000 Lupas
