ZEN LORD SKYWEST
Episode 16 { Birthday gifts that will never be forgotten }

The days go by and Zen's birthday is just one more day away. On a clear morning....

"Dad!, until when did you sleep. It's not like last night you promised me sword practice with me this morning! Wake up.. wake up... wake up!" Zen shouted right at his father's ears.

Then Emperor Zeiland woke up and said to Zen, "hoam. Thank God, I still want to sleep."

After saying that he then threw a pillow and bolster towards Zen Then he continued his sleep again.

Duk, "Why the pillow should hit my face anyway, dad! Why are you sleeping again. Hey well, I'm not a mother but Zen, Zen. Getup! It's not like you promised to practice swordplay with me today." Her speech.

Then came his mother. After that his mother said to Zen, "you know Zen, do you want me to wake your father up. Just say yes, I'll build it."

"Ah, no need. Just let him sleep, after all I can practice sword with my teacher, by now ma'am. I'll go first." Zen said, who then left his father and mother's room.

On the way to where he practiced the sword, he said, "haw, almost, if I agree with mother's words, the two of them will fight again. I don't want to see the two of them fighting anymore because I just want to see the two of them get along like a typical married couple."

Arriving there....

"Well, teacher. Since when have you arrived here." Asked Zen who was surprised to see his teacher who came earlier than him.

"I've just come, so how's the prince of Zen, will Emperor Zeiland come this time?" Ask her teacher back to her.

"Ah, he's still sleeping. So, this time he's not coming." Zen Sahut

"Yes, prepare yourselves prince of Zen." Said teacher.

After Zen was ready, his teacher taught him....

"Hold your sword like this, then swing towards that wooden statue in front of you." Said teacher.

"Good," Sahut.

Then he swung his sword towards the wooden statue, swinging it from left, right and up for fifteen minutes. No, no, no.

"Good, you've grown a lot. Rest for five minutes then after that your target this time is me. If you can swing that sword until it hits me, then I will give you the gift of the real sword to your prince Zen. How are you interested?" Said teacher.

"Of course!" Followed with spirit.

"Well, rest we're just getting started." Said teacher.

After the rest....

"Teacher, I'm ready. When do we start?" Zen asked his teacher.

"Now also, hold your sword properly, put your foot in the right direction and then swing the sword towards me, Understand?"

"Good." Do as his teacher said.

"Start! Attack me right now." Said teacher.

Then Zen ran towards the teacher by swinging his sword from the left. But unfortunately his teacher dodged and he did not manage to hit his teacher. After that he then swung his sword from the right direction but still did not hit his teacher. Then he jumped up high and then swung his sword from above towards his teacher, but again failed. He kept trying and trying but the results were in vain.

"Haah. haah. My body is tired." Said Zen who then sprawled him to the ground.

Then the teacher approached him. Smiling at Zen he said, "so how has your prince given up?"

"Yes. I gave up." Legally.

"Our training is enough here, later I will teach you how to avoid" said the teacher.

When he finished, Zen went straight to the palace and when he got there he went to his room and lay down on the bed.

"Well, it's delicious" said Zen who was lying on his bed.

"Zen, are you in your room? I saw you back from your training ground, if you're inside and you're not busy, can you help me?" Said his mother from outside her room.

"Geez, I just got some rest. Someone's been bothering me." Zen Gumam.

"Yes, I'm in the room. Wait a minute, Mom, I'll be out." Legally.

Then he came out to his mother. Afterwards he asked his mother, "What can I do for you? Just tell me, I'm not busy."

"Our summer stock is already melting due to the heat, so can you provide it?" Mother's mouth.

"Mother's thirsty, apparently, well I'll provide it." Zen said to his mother.

"Thank you very much Zen." Her mother with a happy smile.

Though in his heart, "he bothered me just to drink! Why didn't he ask for the same father."

After she had prepared Ice for her mother, she went to her father's study.

"Dad, are you busy this afternoon? If you're not busy can you teach me how to use my powers." Zen asked as he was in his father's study.

"Hello Prince Zen, you should understand that the emperor is busy preparing for your birthday tomorrow. So this time he can't train you." Prime Minister Roan said with a smile.

Then Emperor Zeiland threw his pen to the Prime Minister's head. Buk, "oh, why did you throw that pen on my head!, what's my fault?" Asked the Prime Minister while rubbing his agonized head.

"I know why you're smiling stupidly!, you're so happy that I can't leave this job to you today. I'm sorry Zen, this time I can't leave this job to that idiot, because your birthday may be messed up. And I'm also sorry Zen, for not practicing swordsmanship with you." The Emperor Zeiland.

"Yes, that's it." Sahut Zen's.

Then he went back to his room and immediately lay down on his bed. After that he fell asleep until night because of fatigue.

When he woke up from his sleep, he went out of his room with hunger. When he went to the dining room he looked at the room of his father and mother whose door was open, he was surprised that his father and mother were wearing nightgowns.

Then he went into the room of his father and mother saying, "loh, well. How come mom and dad are wearing night clothes, is it night?"

"Yes, it's almost midnight. Why did you get out of your room?" Ask her father back.

"Eh, it's midnight! How could I have slept that long." Sahut Zen who was shocked because he fell asleep until midnight.

"Where do I know, so what's the reason you're out in the middle of the night like this?" Ask her father again.

"The reason is that my stomach is rumbling." Sahut Zen's.

"Bhahaha, I just remembered. Today you only eat one meal." Said his father who was mocking Zen.

Knok, knok, "Hi Emperor Zeiland and also Queen Fiona. Wow, well, there is a Zen prince as well, yes" Duke Hans Calisto said.

"What's your purpose in coming here?" zeiland asked Duke Hans Calisto.

"Haha, just calm down. I'm just here to give you Zen's birthday gift and since Zen is here too, I'll give you that gift now." Duke Hans Calisto.

"What do you mean give Zen a gift. Zen's birthday is tomorrow, and again you don't bring gifts. What are you gonna give me?" Ask Queen Fiona.

"Oh, so you can't wait huh, noble queen. Okay I'll give you the prize right now, "Hell's fire of death, Explode. (the fire of death that comes from hell, detonate)

Upon hearing those words, emperor Zeiland immediately uttered, "Protective Shield from heaven, activate" (protective shield from heaven, activate it)

After Duke Hans Calisto said those words, there was a terrible explosion. And the explosion even destroyed the walls of the royal castle that made Emperor Zeiland along with Zen and also Queen Fiona slammed to the ground. But since Emperor Zeiland had activated the protective shield, the three of them were not seriously injured, but only bruised from being slammed onto the ground.

"What the fuck are you Hans jerk! Could've wanted to kill all three of us." Shouted Emperor Zeiland from outside the royal castle.

"Cih, apparently you activated the shield. But as I recall you can only use that shield twice a day. Now choose, you want yourself and your wife to be safe or Zen!" From inside the castle.

"What do you mean." Said Emperor Zeiland after hearing the words from the Duke. Then Emperor Zeiland turned his back and saw Zen being far away from him.

"Zen!, can you come closer to us. Because if I don't, I won't be able to protect us all! I can only activate it once again." Emperor Zeiland said to Zen.

"Yes Zen! You should come here right now. Otherwise you'll be in danger." Mother's mouth.

"I-I can't stand up, my body's limp." Zen.

"One, two, two and a half." Said Duke Hans Calisto who calculated the warning signs to Emperor Zeiland.

"Yes, already. I've already disconnected Fiona, I'll transfer that protective shield to Zen. That's the best choice, right?" Emperor Zeiland said to Queen Fiona.

"Yes, the most important thing is Zen." he said.

"Protective Shield from heaven, activate." Said Emperor Zeiland who directed the protective shield towards Zen.

"The right choice. I'll start right now, "Fire of death, burn the place now!" (fire of death, burn the place now!)

Instantly, a black immortal flame burned the place where Emperor Zeiland and the queen of Fiona were. They both burned while they were saving themselves by making a wall of ice, but unfortunately the ice melted immediately and they could not survive the fire.

Zen who saw his parents burning fire immediately shouted and tried to destroy the protective shield that was round but transparent, which is why Zen could see what happened to his father and mother. But unfortunately his efforts were in vain.

Duak, buk, duk, "dad! Mama! Please pull back this shield and protect yourself! Please please! Hiks, hysterics." He shouted while trying to destroy the shield and continued to repeat his words while crying until something unexpected happened
