The Golden Throne

Chapter 164 - Arrogance

Liu Feng thought about this and a shiver went down his spine.

"Damn it. With the new information that there are two demon ministers in the coming war, I need all the help I can get. I cannot afford to offend these people by allowing these numbskulls to be their usual selves. I need to take care of them before they get me in more trouble.", he thought to himself and decided. 

"Oh, and boy, remember, never even look at Marquis Kwon's eyes. If you even so slightly as offends him, your life in the army, no your life itself is forfeit. Remember, never be provocative, and do not offend him.", the man warned Liu Feng and he snapped out of his thoughts.

"Marquis Kwon? Got it. So then, you have to tell me, where are all the beautiful girls of the army? I have not seen a single one of them..", Liu Feng asked, with a slight smile on his face.

"Girls? You came to the army and want girls? What are you, plain stupid?", the man scoffed at him.

"No Sir, I mean, with all the academy students here, there must be some noble and rich girl looking for a play thing. I mean, surely I can strike something.", Liu Feng laughed sheepishly and blushed a little.

"You are definitely going to get yourself killed Sherlock. Well, the tents of all the women are to the north end. But, if you so much as offends even one of the girls there, well, don't say I didn't warn you.", the man said and was about to walk away.

Liu Feng thought about it for a while and walked over to his tent. Clearly, someone was already in it.

"You there, sleep at the end. That's right. I don't care if you don't have place. Just leave this area for me and Brooks here. The rest of you commoners can just sleep in the corner. You poor smucks are used to it anyways.", a voice came from inside the tent.

"Looks like one of those idiots is in my tent. I hoped to avoid it.", he sighed.

"It is obvious, master. There are so many students and they make a sizeable part of the new recruits. It is obvious that there would be a few of the recruits for every tent.", a voice came from behind him.

"Where did you come from?", Liu Feng jumped up in fright.

"I was next to you the whole time.", Arad replied nonchalantly.

"Next to me the whole time? I would notice.", Liu Feng dismissed the thought.

"You were lost in your thoughts master."

"What is all this ruckus outside?", the same overbearing voice came from inside the tent and a face peeped out of the tent's makeshift door. 

"You two. What are you doing here? Get out. I have to rest, it has been a very tiring day for me.", the boy said. He looked like he was eighteen, or slightly more. He has ruffled hair, and green eyes. Though he looked quite good, it seemed that his upbringing was not as up to par.

Liu Feng frowned but did not say a word.

"We are supposed to sleep here. If you will move please, I will be entering.", Arad said as he walked right past Liu Feng and towards the boy.

The boy staggered back and Arad entered the tent.

"Did I give you permission to enter? You have to ask me permission. I am a Baron's son! Do you know who is next to me? This is Brooks Garret! Ever heard the name, Commander Garret? He is from the same family! You better start listening to me, or you will have it.", the boy said, his voice shaking a little.

"Commander Brooks? Who is that?", Arad replied with the same monotone voice. Unable to understand the conversation properly without the visuals, Liu Feng entered the tent.

It was a little different than he remembered it. Although the area was the same, all the carpet that was laid down was folded into one side, and there was a man whimpering on the side.

Liu Feng looked at the conservation with interest. But, he also knew that if he wanted his undercover plan to go smoothly for the next few days, he would have to keep Arad on a leash, and that would be difficult. So, he went with the one plan that he never even expected would come to.

"Hey, boy. Do you not know who you are talking to? This is the great Commander Garret's bloodline, in front of my own eyes. How dare you disrespect them? You better show your respect to someone like that, or if you don't like it, you suck it up and beg to change your tent.", Liu Feng barked at Arad. 

Arad turned and looked at Liu Feng confused.

"But ma-", he was about to say when the boy in front of him interrupted.

"You seem to be in the right mind. And you-", he pointed to Arad, "if you want to mess with me, then you get ready for a world of hell.", he warned.

Arad looked at Liu Feng once, and Liu Feng winked at him once.

"How about this, young masters? I will take this boy outside and teach him some manners.", he said as he went forward and grabbed Arad's hand. He dragged him outside.

"Good, good. You do that.",Brooks Garret, who was silent all this while, said. Liu Feng nodded and he reached the outside of the tent.

"I told you that we would be undercover. What are you doing? They are nobles. It means that we have to listen to them.", Liu Feng berated Arad.

"Impossible. I am a dragon. I have my own sense of pride.", Arad shook his head.

"Fine then. Go to where the kings are sleeping, and show them this token. This is a royal token of Aegon. With this, you will be given full rights and will be treated like a king. Wait, no. You will be treated like a crown prince.", he corrected himself.

"But my job is to protect you." Arad protested.

"From these nutjobs? I could kill them in my sleep with a sneeze. Just go and make sure that you tell my father that I have not arrived yet.", Liu Feng warned him.

"Not arrived yet? How will he believe that? I have arrived and I am always with you.", Arad asked.

"Tell him that you flew here at my behest and spoke with the Dragon King, and that is why he left. And tell him that I will take some time for me to arrive.", Liu Feng said.

"Wait, where is this place? I do not know where the kings live.", Arad asked.

"Just go where Feng Huang, the phoenix is. You can sense an enormous presence like her right? She will know where to place you. She is probably where you need to go as well.", Liu Feng turned around to go back in.

"Fine then, but remember master. What you are doing, bowing down to an arrogant human, is what leads to every other living being to look at humans with shame.", Arad warned. The sound of wind gushing came, and before Liu Feng could even blink, Arad was gone.

"Alright, now I have to figure out where all the punks are going to be and teach them a lesson.", Liu Feng cracked his fist.
