Without a doubt it was a new day and everything was normal.
The sun rose as it should, the birds chipped like the sisal and everyone woke up from their sleep like it was any other normal day but there was something that has been bugging Alex for a while.
"This letter... who could have put the seal on it?", Alex was asking himself while sitting in his room and thinking about it.
The letter which Rex had sent which had a seal on it was considered to be a very high ranking technique and that could only be performed if someone has reached a great state of understanding magic.
'Was it one of the two masters...?', he thought.
'But the message and the hand writing was that of Rex...', he was wondering about it.
If Rex was the one who had written then he could just hand it over to the guards to give it to alex without the seal.
There wasn't nothing that controversial and no one should literally spend a lot of magic power only to seal that.
'Too weird...', he was thinking this all the time from the moment he woke up.
Elina observed that he was worried so she came and tried to give him some suggestions after which they started talking about other affairs which included both internal and external matters.
As they were discussing, someone knocked at the door.
'KNOCK KNOCK'
Both of them said in unison, "Come in."
They were expecting some guard to come inside but unexpectedly Rex was the one who entered the room.
"Rex?", both were surprised to see him in the room.
They thought that he might have felt uncomfortable or something else might have happened that's why they go tensed for a few moments.
"Good morning mom... dad...@, he greeted both of them.
They too wished him back but they still had the same worrisome expression.
Elina asked, "Rex, Is everything alright?"
"Yes everything is fine mom... is something the matter?", Rex asked because he could clearly see them worried.
"Ah, nothing at all... we thought that you would get up late since you might have been tired but you woke up quite early.", was what Elina said.
"Oh, no I felt quite refreshed that was why I got up early...", he smiled while saying that.
Then immediately after that Alex thought about asking about the seal of the letter but Rex looked towards the painting that was on the wall.
On seeing that Alex kept quite for a while since he didn't want to make Rex tensed too for the time being.
The painting that was on the wall had Alex, Elina and Julia but there was no sign of Rex due to which he felt a bit sad and immediately said, "Okay, I'll be back after getting freshened up."
After saying that he left almost instantly even before Alex and Elina could stop him.
'I don't know why but it felt as if my heart would tear apart...', was what he thought after seeing the picture.
But regardless of that, he didn't want to ruin the new day because of which he went and got fresherfn uo after bathing and came back to his room where a maid came in order to dress him up.
The made out a royal cloth on his body and then wiped some of the left over water that was on his hairs.
Then she immediately went and brought breakfast which Rex was about to eat when suddenly he heard someone knock.
The maid who was present there immediately went and opened the door only to find Bandis and Zor standing there.
She immediately bowed her head in front of them.
"Oh, both of you! Come in...", was what Rex said.
"Yes master...", Bandis replied in haste.
"Okay, it will be good if you come later...", was what Dex said to the maid and she immediately bowed her head and left.
'What was that? I thought that Rex-Sama was their desciple but then why did they call Rex-Sama as Master?', she kept wondering that as she went back to the kitchen rushingly.
"Bandis... I told you not to call me Master...", Rex was sighing while saying that.
"S-sorry Master... I'm trying to not to say that but it takes sometime to change the habit...", Bandis said while trying to give an excuse to what he had done.
"Ha... it's fine, just take care next time.", was what Rex said.
The maid then soon brought out the breakfasts for Bandis and Zor in the same room as that of Rex.
Now all three of them started to eat the breakfast but for some reason Rex was feeling unease.
It was as if there was something in his heart which he was yet to do.
"Is something the matter ma-", Bandis paused before he said the 'master' word again.
"Hmm, well, I want to discus many things with father but I don't know how to ask.", was what he was thinking.
"Uh... Master, it all started with a lie, why don't you just show how powerful you are...", was what Badass suggested to Rex.
"Hmm, I guess you are you are right..."
Rex then started to think about how he would approach his father and showcase his powers when suddenly he remembered that his father was also eager to know about his strength.
'Ya, that's perfect... I'll just walk to Father and ask father to spar with me...', was what he thought.
But right now wasn't the good time since he like feel a slight bit of tension in the atmosphere.
It was as if Alex and Elina were a bit worried about some other problem regarding the kingdom affairs.
So Rex thought it would be best if he were to go and take a look at the town instead of sitting in the palace andnincreasing their troubles even more by continuously asking him again and again.
"Yes, I will...", Rex was about to say that he would go to the city when suddenly Bandis and Zor started to smile.
"Huh? What happened to both of you?", he asked.
"Master, we will also come with you.", was what both of them said.
"Huh...? How did you come to know that u was going somewhere...", Rex asked with suspicion.
For a moment he thought that they could read his mind.
"Haha, Master, we have been with you for so many days so obviously we can understand what you would do at situations like this... haha.", Bandis laughed while saying that.
"Ah, so that's how it is... but I think it's the best if you both don't come with me...", was what Rex said.
"Why Master?", Bandis asked since he was hesitant to leave Rex all alone.
"Actually I have some personal matters to attend, also father and mother are here, even if they are strong, there should be someone who should protect them right?", he asked.
"Yes master we can understand that, but if we protect them then who will protect you?", Zor asked immediately after hearing Rex earlier.
"Haha, you think that I would require your protection?", Rex smirked while saying that.
Both Bandis and Zor thought for a second and came to conclusion that it would be best to leave Rex to go alone since his power was already at a maximum level.
If Bandis and Zor tried to do anything, then that would only become a hindrance in his path.
"Okay master... take care...", was what Bandis said.
Rex smiled and went through the window just before which he said, "Don't call me master!!!"
After that it seemed as if he used teleportation just after jumping from the window.
"So what do we do now Zor? Go and sit in our rooms?", Bandis asked since he was unaware of their next move.
Zormugand was without a doubt smarter than Bandis who had high level of intelligence.
Though at times he acted as a kid, his smartness and cunningness couldn't be underestimated.
"Yes, I guess that's the best thing to do now and if they ask about master's whereabouts then we just have to tell that he has gone for training and will be back soon!!"
What Zor said was perfect and there was no flaw in his thinking because of which basis too agreed and both of them went back to their own rooms.
Immediately after that the same maid who had been serving them food and helped Rex in changing clothes entered and took the plates and went back to the kitchen room.
MEANWHILE...
Rex was standing on top of a building and was looking at the places. It was basically a market place so he was just checking how the people's behaviour was when suddenly he heard a strange voice which made him nervous all of a sudden.
"H-help... please... please protect my children...", the voice seemed to be that of a woman and it was quite soothing but at the same time it seemed as if it was in sorrow.
"W-who are you...?", Rex asked.
"..."
