ALVER?
it was a fairly sunny afternoon. with the autumn breeze blowing in from the window,
yawn
the man with blonde hair and blue eyes yawned as he was going through the documents placed in the table in front of him.
as he was thinking how peaceful his days had been for the past few days, he heard someone step in from the window
"your highness, you are shinning as brightly as the sun in the middle of the day as always. this lowly noble greets his highness, the one and only sun of our roan kingdom." a man with bright red hair stepped inside while bowing down
'and there goes my peaceful days'
"i am here too crown prince" a black blob popped in front of the crown prince. while flapping his wings, it gave the crown prince a big bright smile
"yes of course raon nim" the crown prince smiled gently as he reached the top shelf of the cupboard to grab some cookies
while handing the cookies to the 6 year old dragon, the crown prince asked, "so what brings you here cale henituse"
"oh i just wanted to greet the radiant sun of-
"enough what are you really here for" the crown prince cut him off
"i just came over to hand these documents that we gathered from the mage tower" cale said and handed the documents over to the crown prince while raon was trying to shove cookies in cale's mouth
crunch crunch
both raon and cale sat down on the couch while munching on the cookies and pouring tea as if it was their own bedroom
'ahh this disrespectful bastard' the crown prince thought as he let out a big sigh
"if thats all you came here for then eat those and leave. i have work to do"
"yes yes your highness, alberu crossman, how generous you are to allow such a lowly noble like me to have the cookies made by the sun of our kingdom himself" cale said with his glib tongue as if to tease the prince
"what?" the crown prince had a very shocked look on his face
"is something wrong your highness" cale asked trying to figure out why the crown prince had such a look on his face.
"what did you say my name was" the crown prince asked
"wha... whats wrong your highness" cale asked in a troubled tone
"human, why did you call the crown prince, alberu?" raon was the one to speak this time
"because thats his name???" cale was even more confused as to why these two were acting this way
"haaaah is this your new way to tease me?" alberu asked letting out yet another sigh
'his highness is sighing alot these days'
"no how could i ever dare to do such a thing" cale again spoke with his glib tongue
"but human thats not the crown prince's name" raon said while tilting his head as he crunched down his 5th cookie
'how many cookies has he had? will he get cavities? do dragon even get cavities?? no wait thats not the issues here' cale quickly snapped out of his thought
"excuse me?" cale asked
"thats not the crown prince's name" raon innocently repeated it again
"WHAT??" cale asked again, he truly had no idea what was going on
"but his highness's name is alberu??" cale said and looked at the blonde man next to him
flinch
cale flinched when he made eye contact with the man who looked angry for some reason
then the crown prince started to walk towards cale, cale instinctively took a step back.
he then called one of his servants in the room
by the time the servant came in, raon had already turned invisible and cale didn't know what to do at this point.
"your highness you called for me" the servant asked while bowing down to the crown prince
"whats my name?" the crown prince nonchalantly asked
"excuse me?" the servant asked as if he had heard wrong
"i asked what my name was" alberu said with a bit of annoyance in his tone
"yes, you are the crown prince of the roan kingdom, his highness, alver crossman" the servant said in a loud shout
"yes thank you, you may go now" alver said and watched the servant leave with a confused expression. then he turned around and looked at the red haired guy who looked even more shocked
"al... alver??? but... but.... isn't it alberu?? why is it not alberu..." cale couldn't keep his mind straight. cale, no kim rok soo was someone who always kept his cool in any situation and he rarely lost his cool. this was one of those times.
"what do you mean why... thats what my mother named me. why would it be alberu anyway. makes no sense to me"
"yes human you are acting weird. why are you calling the crown prince with a different name" even raon sounded worried
"but but its alberu" cale looked horrified
"its not alberu, its alver" alver said with seriousness in his voice
huff huff huff
with a heaviness in his stomach cale henituse woke up, he noticed cold sweat dripping from his forehead and his heart beating wildly
"what happened human, are you alright" raon who was sleeping on cale's stomach asked while slowly opening his still sleepy eyes
"raon, teleport me to the palace" cale urged raon who was still trying to fully wake up
"we are going to see the crown prince right now?" raon yawned as he got up and flapped his wings
by that time. on & hong also woke up and asked " what happened nya"
"are you going somewhere, nyaa" on asked, now even she looked concerned as she saw cale's pale face. cale had always been paler than any other human on had ever seen but right now he looked even more pale
"its alright. raon and i just need to go see his highness. i need to confirm something"
as he patted both on & hong and told them to go back to sleep. he got inside the teleportation circle with raon. with a bright light, cale and her younger sibling disappeared in front of on's eyes
"its probably fine nyaa" on said and curled up in ball next to her younger brother hong
cale had arrived at the cown prince's office.
the crown prince noticed a man with bright red hair, who was still in his pajama stepping out of the teleportation circle
"what the-"
the crown prince couldn't even finish his sentence when cale grabbed his shoulders.
"you highness, no, hyung nim" cale was huffing heavily as if he had ran all the way here
"ca... cale are you alright?" the crown prince asked with a concerned voice. he looked at cale for a moment who looked like he was still trying to catch his breath. he, then turned to the little black dragon who was still floating in the air
"i don't know crown prince. the human has been acting weird ever since he woke up" raon said with a shrug
"hyung nim"
"ye... yes dongsaeng"
"your name"
"...what?"
"whats your name"
"HUH??" the crown prince couldn't believe what he just heard
'has this bastard finally lost it' he thought but couldn't say it out loud. he noticed cale's trembling eyes which looked so desperate for his answer
haaaah
with a sigh he finally opened his mouth and answered
"its alberu. Alberu crossman" alberu said while he removed cale's twig like hands from his shoulders
"haaaahah" cale let out a sigh of relief with a light laugh
"what the... whats wrong with you today" alberu was dumbfounded
"its nothing your highness, i see you are looking as radiant as the sun despite being in your pajama and even with a bed head. this lowly noble now bids you farewell. have a day as great as your presence in this kingdom. goodbye your highness, the crown prince, ALBERU CROSSMAN" with a smile that raon would probably call a 'scamming smile' cale waved his hands while signaling raon to activate the teleportation circle.
while alberu was still trying to do something about his bed head, he noticed bight light
"wai...." before he could even say anything, cale had already disappeared
"what the hell was that all about" alberu yet again let out a sigh and got ready to start the day.
