After having dinner with Nima and Auri, Kent goes to bed early. Auri is no longer angry with Nima. At the dinner table, Nima gave him a piece of meat, which calmed Auri’s anger. Auri even slept with Nima that night.
The next morning, The bustling streets of Metro l City were livelier than usual as Kent walked toward the designated meeting spot. Jade had texted him the location where he needed to meet with the princess. Kent needs to revive the princess from Metro City Airport. This is the first time in Kent’s life going to the airport.
Kent was thinking, He had solved the underwear pervert problem, scolded Nima, and was looking forward to some peace— after the princess task was complete. But Jade Monroe had thrown another work at him. Now he has to complete two tasks.
Task one: "A princess from the Northern County is coming to study here. Show her around town, make sure she doesn’t get lost."
Task two: ...??? It’s a hard task for Kent. Kent needs to find a suitable way to finish this task. But for his focus on task one.
Showing around the city to a foreign exchange student sounded simple. Too simple. But Kent had a bad feeling about this.
And as soon as he arrived at the meeting place, the airport, he realized… He was completely unprepared. He was too busy thinking about how he could earn money from the princess by selling his spiritual vegetables.
He totally forgot to plan what place and things he should show the princess. He didn’t even ask the princess’s name or what she liked. Where should Kent take her? Kent didn’t even know how she looked. He has no way of finding her.
Suddenly, an idea comes to Kent’s mind. He started to write something on a paper. Then he holds the paper in his hand and waits at the airport gate.
I AM LOOKING FOR NORTHERN PRINCESS WHO IS A FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENT.
A few minutes later a girl came in front of him. Standing in front of him was a tall, breathtakingly beautiful girl with long silver hair, deep sapphire-blue eyes, and an aura of nobility so strong it could probably pay taxes on its own.
Her dress was elegant—too elegant for a place like Metro City. She looked like she had walked out of a painting.
Kent blinked.
Jade Monroe, standing beside her, smirked. "Kent, meet Louis Vernsdale. She’s the princess of the Northern County of Vernsdale and will be studying here."
Then Jade says, Bro why are holding this in your hands? Didn’t I tell you to come to the airport gate? I will meet you there.
Kent snapped in anger, " This stupid fasto. He didn’t tell me you will meet me at the airport. Now I look like a fool in front of my future customer." He murmurs to himself.
Keeping his sanity, Kent says, bro, you didn’t mention we will meet here in your text.
Jade Monroe laughed like an idiot rubbing his hair. Bro, I guess I forgot to type about that. I am busy doing something when I text you.
Before Kent could say anything, Louis tilted her head slightly, examining Kent with curiosity.
"So," she said in a soft but confident voice, "you’re my guide?" She felt something seeing Kent. Her heart started to beat a little faster.
Kent snapped out of his daze and replied. "Yeah. Name’s Kent."
She nodded. "I see." Inside her mind, what is this feeling? Why is my heart beating so fast? Why do I feel like my body is getting warmer?
Silence! She started at Kent for a few seconds.
Kent coughed feeling awkward. "Uh… welcome to Dragon Country."
Louis smiled. "Thank you. I look forward to—"
"Alright, alright," Jade interrupted, clapping Kent on the back. "Kent will take great care of you. You two have fun. I have work to do."
And before Kent could ask him about the second task, he was gone saying, Bye Bro.
Kent exhaled. Great. Now he was alone with a literal princess who was staring at him like he was some kind of art piece or something.
He glanced at Louis. She was studying him with an unreadable expression.
"Well," Kent said, forcing a smile, "since we have all day, let’s start the tour."
Louis nodded. "I leave myself in your care."
Kent internally winced.
Kent: "Why does she sound so formal? This is going to be a long day."
Kent had exactly zero experience of taking a princess to fancy places. He doesn’t want to say, which could ruin his business opportunity.
Alright, your highness let’s move. Louis says call by my name. We are going to be classmates. No need to act so formally.
Okay! Louis. Kent replied. After that, Kent started the city tour. Let’s eat first, I guess you might be Hungry. His first stop… Old Man Chang’s Noodle Stall.
Kent led Louis through the streets to a small, slightly rundown noodle stall. The scent of broth and spices filled the air as customers sat on wooden benches, slurping noodles loudly.
Louis blinked. "This is… where we’re eating?"
"Yep," Kent said, grabbing a seat. "Best noodles in town."
Louis hesitated before gracefully sitting beside him. She looked extremely out of place. The noodle stall owner, Old Man Chang, waddled over. "Oi, Kent! Haven’t seen you in a while."
"Been busy," Kent said. "Two bowls of your best noodle uncle."
Chang nodded and eyed Louis. "And who’s this young lady?"
"Princess Louis Vernsdale," Kent said casually.
Old Man Chang blinked.
Then he laughed. "Good one, kid. Who is she really?"
Kent grinned. "I just told you, old man." Give me the food. Hurry up! I am very hungry.
Louis, instead of getting offended, simply smiled. "It is an honour to meet you Mr."
Chang squinted. "Huh. You sound like you have noble manners, that’s for sure." You don’t need to join with Kent pranks young lady. This boy is already very naughty. Don’t encourage him.
A few minutes later, steaming bowls of hot, fragrant noodles arrived. Louis stared at hers.
Kent dug in immediately, slurping loudly.
Louis slowly picked up the chopsticks and hesitated.
Kent raised an eyebrow. "What’s wrong?"
Louis looked at him. "I’ve… never used chopsticks before."
Kent almost choked. "You’re telling me," he said, wiping his mouth, "you’ve never had noodles with chopsticks?"
Louis shook her head. "We use forks in Vernsdale and we call it Pasta."
Kent gasped in fake horror. "No forks allowed here. Time to learn." Let me teach you.
Louis looked uncertain. "Is it difficult?"
"Depends," Kent smirked. "How good is your swordsmanship?"
Louis narrowed her eyes. "Flawless."
"Then you can handle this." Try holding it like this with your fingers. Then grab the noodles.
Louis sighed and picked up the chopsticks. She clumsily attempted to grab the noodles but failed.
"Kent grinned. This was hilarious." He almost burst out of laughter. But he controlled himself from laughing.
Louis pouted slightly. She notices Kent is holding his laugh. She also felt shy.
"…You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?" she muttered.
Kent shrugged. "A little."
Louis huffed and kept trying. Eventually, she managed to eat a few noodles and looked extremely proud of herself.
Kent chuckled. "See? Not so hard."
Louis smiled.
And for the first time since they met, her noble presence seemed to soften. She is getting more and more attracted to Kent.
After eating, Kent took her through Metro City’s market district.
Louis was fascinated by everything. She stopped at a small stand selling handmade trinkets and carefully examined a wooden bracelet.
Kent raised an eyebrow. "What, you’ve never seen cheap stuff before?"
Louis shook her head. "Where I come from, jewelry is always made from gold or silver. This… has charm."
Kent smirked. "You’re seriously impressed by a five dollar bracelet?"
Louis nodded. "It feels… more personal than something made by a jeweler."
Kent chuckled. "You’re easier to please than I thought, Princess."
Louis brushed her silver hair behind her ear. I told you earlier, "You can just call me Louis."
Kent paused. I forgot about that. "He thinks most nobles insisted on titles. But she doesn’t behave like a Novel supposed to behave with the common people."
He looked at her again, really looked at her. Her elegant features, the way her sapphire eyes lit up when she discovered new things.
For a moment, Kent also felt something strange. Then he shoved it away. Nope. Not happening. She’s a princess. Keep it moving.
"Alright, Louis," Kent said casually. "Let’s keep going." At some point, they reached an old, broken water fountain in the center of the city.
Louis tilted her head. "Is it supposed to be like that?"
Kent sighed. "Nah. Some kids broke it. No one’s fixed it yet."
Louis frowned. "That’s sad."
Kent shrugged. "That’s life in the small city."
Louis walked forward and knelt down.
Kent watched in confusion as she gently touched the broken stone. Then, she closed her eyes.
