"Greetings, I am your room mate, Liu Feng. I am the son of the baron of Dilheim, the town a few miles from here. Please don't mind me, I won't be arriving here till next month, when the school starts."

The three nodded at Liu Feng and continued arguing.

"As a prince, I deserve a top bunk. Remember, I am the future king of Elvan. What will puny dukes do to me?"

"We are not your servants, to allow you to do whatever you wish. Keep in mind that we are sons of dukes, and my father has a huge say in the military of Darv. We could squash Elvan like a bug if we wanted to."

Liu Feng left the dorm asw he could not stand the noise. He kept strolling when he arrived at the training grounds. The Kingdoms spared no expense for this academy, and the training grounds had high quality dummies and targets for practice. There were many people training in magic and some in the sword. But when he saw their skill levels, Liu Feng was disappointed. After intensive training in the castle, Liu Feng was a bit of an expert in the sword, and as for magic, he was probably one of the strongest in the academy.

He went to the end of the field and took a sword from the bucket of weapons. He started swinging at the dummy with a bit of control, so as to not make a commotion on his first day here. Liu Feng intended to have a quiet school life, and wanted to be as unassuming as possible.

He trained a bit, and went back to browsing the school. After a few hours, he went back to his dorm to rest, and prepare to leave in the evening. But, the room was far from quiet. Alderan had monopolized a top bunk, and the other two were fighting for the other one. Liu Feng barked at them, "For god's sake you are sons of dukes. Is this how you behave?"

Asd they were just kids, they stopped fighting and scampered off, afraid that a teacher arrived. But seeing only Liu Feng, they relaxed.

"Oh, it's just you? You scared me. But that's besides the point. How dare you speak to me like that. You are just a Baron's son. I am a duke's son. Did you not learn how to talk to your superiors?"

"Oh, did you not read the instruction manuals and rules of the academy when you entered? Nobility means nothing here, and if you actually use it to oppress others, you will be expelled. And I am surnamed Liu. I really want to see how you will touch me. You are in Aegonian land."

Filden gnashed his teeth and stopped talking. He stormed out of the room. Tesarion used the opportunity to occupy the other top bunk. Liu Feng shook his head and slept on the bottom bed beneath Alderan. After an hour or so, he left, and headed back to Dilheim. The day was exhausting, but Liu Feng had a little more work to do. He called for Sir Nicholas and asked him,

"Sir Nicholas, how did you introduce yourself to the villagers?"

"Sir, I told them that I was a knight named Nicholas Graim."

"Shit, you told them your surname? I made a mistake and told a few people that my surname was Liu. Do one thing, spread rumors that my 'mother' was actually a Liu surnamed woman, and because of their status, I was forced to keep the surname Liu instead of Graim."

"Yes, your highness. Also, the merchants have entered the town enmasse, and the collection of the permits hasn't gone properly.. Many are also under-reporting their goods, so it is becoming a problem collecting the import taxes."
