After their first tutor Estia Kart finishes giving an explanation of the mission they have to do, Sabrina and Elona instantly prepare everything necessary.
Elona, who is on a mission to solve a piracy case that has just happened, decides to investigate directly as when he was still a soldier.
The first thing he did was read all the documents related to the hijacking case carefully and then he went to train his sword skills which unexpectedly met with Ricardo who was also practicing the sword alone.
In the afternoon, at 5 in the palace sword training room, Elona who was preparing to train her sword skills coincidentally met with Ricardo and invited him to do the exercises together
" Hail Crown Prince, are you training?" said Elona who immediately saluted him when he saw Ricardo
" Hey Elona, do you want to practice too? then we'll just practice together!" bring Ricardo.
" It's an honor to train with you Crown Prince"
" You don't have to talk formally if it's just ourselves. Come on, get your sword out!" ricardo said
Then the two of them fought each other quite fiercely for some time, although at this time Elona's ability is not as good as Ricardo remembered in his past but he long enough to defend against attacks from Ricardo. Finally they stopped after a few hours of sword practice to rest and spent the rest of the time talking to each other.
" Have you known your mission?" ask Ricardo
Elona nodded her head "I will examine the piracy incident that occurred in the last 1 month in the sea border of our kingdom"
" That means we'll see each other again soon" Ricardo said with a faint smile to Elona.
" Are you investigating the case?" ask Elona
" Yes, I seem to have forgotten to tell you that in the mission you are about to receive I will join one of them to immediately finish" Ricardo said
" Are we going together?"
" I'll leave first and you'll just go straight to the dock after the mission is over we can walk to see the night outside the palace"
" If it is discovered by the palace or other nobles will be the talk later"
" You don't have to be afraid there won't be any trouble"
" See you at the pier, Crown Prince" Elona said
Then they left the training room together and parted in the middle of the palace hallway according to their respective goals.
3 Days later, the hot afternoon sun Elona rode her horse to the dock to meet Ricardo
" You've reached Elona" Lucas said
" Koman... hem... senior Lucas, are you also in the investigation? where are Crown Prince and senior Vander?" elona asked in a whisper
" They've gone inside the dock disguised as a commoner to see the situation, he told me to wait for you here" Lucas said
" Ok, let me meet them we can immediately start the mission" asked Elona
Elona and Lucas enter the hallway and knock on one of the rooms on board the cruise ship, ricardo and Vander are waiting for their arrival and some documents and sketches of plans for their mission.
" Crown Prince, commander-in-chief Vander salute" Elona said as she greeted him like a soldier
" Elona's happy to see you again" greeted Vander with her flat face
They then began discussing the plan for +/- 30 minutes in the room, in the afternoon they began to carry out their mission.
1 Hour later the hijackers have been captured and will soon be taken to the palace for further investigation. The three of them then stopped at a restaurant for dinner and also talked lightly like friends who had not met for a long time.
*** flash back when arrest***
The storage room, Elona sneaks in to follow someone with a suspicious gurgle and sees him trying to smuggle some illegal items including one of them magic stone
From behind Elona instantly knocked unconscious and tied up the old man and then carried him secretly to the room Ricardo, Vander, and Lucas gathered. After they get each suspicious person, start investigating those suspected of being involved in piracy.
" Where are your words? why are you smuggling this magic stone?" ricardo asked the hijackers
" I don't know what you're talking about, we're just planning to sell it for a heavy price" said the middle hijacker
" Then I'll ask you something else are there any of your friends on this ship? where are you going to sell the stuff you're plowing? If you want to survive, you better tell the truth" Ricardo said with a cold expression
Instantly, the room temperature in the room of the ship also felt cold as if the temperature had dropped by several degrees followed by a gripping silence
" Ti. no. be. nar only. we and bia. sa. ka. mi sell.. lew. at pa. sar gel. ap" the person said as he stammered and the body trembled in fear of seeing the expressions of Ricardo and those around him.
" Las, you're taking them to the palace prison trying to see if there's any other valuable information we can get"
" Okay, Crown Prince" Lucas replied
" Our work is done here. Comeing! we get out of here and see the nightlife outside the palace" take Ricardo to Vander and Elona
After that Ricardo asked the captain of the ship to stop his ship so that he could immediately bring the hijackers to the palace for further investigation.
*** flash back end***
Go back to the restaurant where the three of them had dinner
" Senior how are you?" ask Elona
" just fine. I heard your friend came to visit you at the palace"
" ah! surely the senior meant Maria" Elona said in a slightly seductive tone to Vander
" Hmm.." answered Vander briefly.
" I feel that when you became our bodyguard we met more often than we do today. Don't you miss those days of being a bodyguard?" ask Ricardo
" YES if said honestly the atmosphere when I became a bodyguard is more exciting and crowded than now because I also cannot be friends with Sabrina's daughter, I don't think he has any intention of being friends with me either" Elena explained.
" Do you regret this decision? do you want to go back ?"
" No, I don't regret it though"
" It's good that I'm happy to hear it and I hope you don't give up until the end of the competition" Ricardo said with hopeful eyes but the battery "I hope you'll be the winner".
The three of them continued to talk until midnight and only returned to the palace, Ricardo told Vander to go to Lucas first while he drove Elona back to the palace where he lived, which Sabrina unexpectedly saw.
