******************Lilian"s POV*****************"Is everything ready?"
She asked a servant nearby.
"Ah, yes your majesty!"
The servant replied nervously but quickly.
"Good, is he awake yet?"
"Send Sophie to wake him up"
"Right away your majesty!"
As she watched the servants departing back, Lilian thought to herself, "I wonder if he"ll be surprised". Smiling at thought, she went back to organize the last minute checks of preparation.
******************Jun"s POV******************
"Yawn... gandang umaga, ah no, good morning"
Fixing my habit of using my former native language, i got up from bed and walked to my personal bathroom for a quick bath. Turning on the water on the tub as i took my off my silk pajamas and waited, and you know what, having running water indoors in a fantasy world got me to thinking, "Were there others like me?".
But then i shook my head, what do i care, they have nothing to do with me, so let"s just focus on me, at least it"s more convenient for me that there"s running water. After the tub filled with water, i soaked for a while and relaxed while talking to the System.
"System, what is our next agenda?"
(Training, both physical and education Host)
"How might we do that?"
Intrigued, i said as i put a hand in my face with two fingers under the lip and the other on my cheek, the "Duterte" pose if you will, and raised an eyebrow at my System.
(For physical training you will wear a pair of unique training bracelets, a growth syrum for internal purposes and a bath solution for external purposes. As for the education, you will be re-educated in physics, mathematics and the sciences, while also being learned in linguistics, time management, urban planning, architecture, interior design-)
"Hoool up, w-what, i get physics, math and science for sure but, time management?"
(A good soldier is always on time)
"Urban planning?!"
(You have to know the in"s and out"s of a city for an easier infiltration and extraction while also being able to locate a target)
"Architecture?!"
(For demolition and aesthetic purposes)
"Interior Design?!"
(So as to understand the layout of a target building)
"Ok, ok i give up, you win, those are important..."
I got up from the tub and put on my robe and walked out of the bathroom, then someone knocked on the door l.
"Your majesty, are you awake?"
It was Sophie.
"Ah, Sophie, what is it im still in a bathrobe"
"Oh, then please take your time getting dressed, Her Majesty is looking for you"
"Ma? Ok i"ll get dressed just wait"
I ran to the my closet and picked out a yellow suit.
(Yellow, really Host?)
"What"s the problem with yellow?"
(It"s G.o.dd.a.m.n winter d.a.m.nit, you will not look good in that)
"Stop acting like some fashionista and give me a color"
(I suggest either black, dark blue or dark red)
Grabbing a dark blue outfit and putting it on, i complained to the System.
"Is fashion gonna be a part of my education?"
(You sure bet it is Honey)
"You... i"ll deal with you later, give me my holster and glock"
(...)
"What, do your thing and poof it to existance"
(...That was virtual Host, of course i can poof it, it doesn"t actually exist in the real world)
"How can i get my gun then?"
(Get me the materials, then i can make it)
"Where can i find polymer?!"
(I don"t know find a subt.i.tute!)
"How can you poof up training equipment then?!"
(They were already there when i existed, and for your information those are quite limited, i only have a five year supply, unless, Unless, you get me the materials to replinish it)
"Y-you... Later, i"ll deal with you later!"
Suppressing my rage to my now fashionable System, i went to my door and opened it revealing my loli maid Sophie. You know when i said that children in this world grow faster than on earth"s? Well, Sophie seems to be an exception, while other 5 year olds are as tall 7"s, Sophie is still growing in a normal rate comparable to earth"s that"s why i say she"s a loli.
"Your majesty, are you ready?"
She said with a smile on her face.
"Mm, take me to m mother"
I corrected my way of calling her for mama is only when we are alone.
"Right away"
Sophie immediately started walking and i followed her.
Soon we arrive at the private dining room and she stood by the door while pointing to the door palm side up.
"Please go in sir"
"Ok..."
Slightly confused but i still did as instructed.
*Giant doors opening
"h.e.l.lo?"
The room was pitch black maybe except for the 6 candles lit in the table, 6... reminds me of something but i can"t remember...
I walked up to the table and could now see the candles are placed on top of a cake. If the number of candles tickled my memory then the cake hit me like a truck, "I remember now, today is the 1st of january, then that means...", as if confirming my suspicion, the room lit up revealing the entire castle staff and my family.
"Surprise! Happy Birthday Jun!"
Today, January 1st, year 1055 of the world calendar, was the former"s birthday. At first i was surprised, but then i felt warm and i smiled and said.
"Thank you, everyone!"
Having people celebrate my birthday is... kinda weird, i didn"t have a birthday since the orphanage didn"t know when i was born so we just celebrated the day i came to the orphanage. But now... im happy.
"Come on! Blow out the cake birthday boy!"
My pa said excitedly, He, a man with golden blonde hair, crimson eyes with a tall build, supposedly a king as cold as steel, and a general that struck fear to his enemies is now showing the widest grin to his son that had just grown earlier.
"Yeah, brother blow it so i can eat it!"
"Yeah sweetie, come on"
Scanning the smiling faces of the palace staff and my own family, i just smiled, shook my head and said.
"Alright, alright..."
And thus i blew the cake and thought "Thank G.o.d for sending me to this world".
