Not Your Perfect Prince
Feeling of Uncomfortable

The next day after getting the news, Reinhart, Zale, and Maria were getting ready to head to where Aiden was.

“I told you, Maria. You do not need to carry non-essential items.”

Looking towards Maria who was carrying a lot of large bags with a serious expression, Reinhart really felt a headache. She did not expect that the girl was really so careful. Although not something bad, but it can affect other members.

“Is this girl okay? Wasn't she the only light magician who appeared in such a long time?”

Hearing Zale's question, Maria looked down in embarrassment. Meanwhile, Reinhart himself was full of grievances in his heart.

‘Aren't you supposed to think that this girl's personality is unique and attracted to her? Since when did you become a prince who only attach importance to gold coins?’

Clearly, compared to Reinhart who wanted to drag Aiden back or Maria who did want to save people, Zale had clearly come to hunt for treasure. It seemed that the young man was still so obsessed with finding treasures that he no longer needed to marry his fiancee.

After preparing, they then set off towards the big city closest to the academy to book a plane ticket. Due to its great distance and location on the border of the kingdom, although in a hurry, they could not get to the location quickly.

“Are you guys ready?” ask Reinhart.

Hearing Reinhart's question, they nodded firmly. Thus, their journey to the desert to save Aiden officially began.

***

Three days later, in the Ybozth Desert which was at the border of the Star Kingdom.

“You are really outrageous.”

After walking in the desert for roughly three hours, Reinhart realized how careless she was to trust the innocent heroine and unreliable Zale. Looking at the blue sky without a speck of white clouds, the young man let out a long sigh. The more he thought about it, the young man felt that the sun was getting hotter to the point of stinging his skin.

Walking around in the desert, rather than carrying water, the two people were actually carrying other objects. Maria carries a lot of things from sunscreen, medicine, to insect repellent. Zale himself was worse. He only carried clothes, weapons, and tools used to dig through the ruins.

‘Do they think they came for a picnic where someone sells coconut ice and they can drink it just because they want it? Really naive!’

“Didn't in the mail say someone will find us to guide the way?”

“We must arrive at the mission location first.” Zale shrugged his shoulders. “Maybe they have been killed by a magical beast or something.”

Seeing Zale's grin, Reinhart's expression turned grim. Moments later, many figures of creatures with hyena and wolf-like appearances appeared and surrounded them. Although the levels were not that high, but their numbers were very numerous.

“Mouth of the crow,” Reinhart said with a look of annoyance on her face.

“This is not my fault at all!” Zale defended himself.

“No matter what, your job is to get rid of them.”

Just then a surprised expression appeared on Zale's face. He turned his head towards Reinhart with a proud face before saying.

“Look, Rein? I almost forgot that I was a water witch myself. In a desert like this, I am not at all afraid of thirst.”

“…”

Although Reinhart understood what Zale meant, but he only shook his head. Not answering yes or no. After all, there are pros and cons in the use of water magic in the desert.

On the one hand, water magic itself can be used to make fresh water. It's just that, using too much skill and energy to make water is simply not recommended unless it is completely cornered. Aside from wasting precious magic energy, they would also be more difficult to use ari magic in the desert. After all, the element of water flowing in the air is also very thin. It is not recommended to use it in origin.

Looking towards his teammates who were so reckless, for some reason ...

Reinhart suddenly felt an uneasy feeling!

It felt like danger was really lurking around them!
