"Cease what you're trying to do, Arico. Just how many times should I told you that?"
Arico pouted when he was caught once again as he took a chair and take seat besides him as he shrugged off his shoulders and snickered; "You're almost an adult in this world but sometimes, you're still grumpy as ever as an old man."
He raised an eyebrow at him when Arico said those words to him and said; "Both of us are technically an old man given that were over millennium years old, you idiot."
Arico clicked on his tongue in annoyance and huffed his chest as he said; "Well, that might be true but in this worldline, you're already 18 years old and in just a few years, you'll reached adulthood soon enough."
The Slayer Agent paused for a moment before he speaks; "Hey, are you alright, Eclipse?"
Eclipse placed down the mug that he ordered from one of the servers in this guild just to have some drinks to fill his stomach while waiting for Arico.
When the world-hopper heard what Arico had just stated, he didn't know how to answer that question.
'What do I feel right now? I don't know but since it's already been here then, might as well utilize everything that I got within my own hands. I'll choose my own destiny and if ever, I'll rewritten my own fate if needed!'
He thought to himself as he thinks back then about the events back from 3 years ago…

It's been 3 years since they fled from Stellarus Empire after he woke up from that dream, or much rather called the [System Subspace] where most of the world-hoppers dive into when they were in their unconscious state from the outside world.
As for Rheina, when Eclipse woke up from his slumber, the assassin told him that it's almost a month had passed since then, and the woman reported back to him about what happened when he was still unconscious that time.
The news about him missing had spread like wildfire within the Empire and the Marquis Chevalier household immediately ordered the Elite knights of their household for the

"However, I know we only had an alliance and a fair exchange for trade and since both of us had done with that part, I should haven't meddled with your life but for some unknown reason, I feel like…. Something tugs deeper in my consciousness that…. I should protect you with the best of my abilities. I just followed my instincts, that's all." ….. >
He didn't know why but when the world-hopper heard that statement, he felt a sense of companionship coming from the Lotus Killer who declared herself to be his protector for the rest of her life.
After that, when everything had been settling and done, the news about him being found battered and almost barely hanging to his life had spread within the Empire and not only that, evidence shows about the Crown Prince's involvement to this incident also became wildly known not only within the Stellarus Empire but also within the neighboring empires as well.
After a few days from that time, Eclipse was declared [death] by the healers who took care of him.
When Eclipse heard the news, the weight on his shoulders finally lifted and now that Ezekiel Zephyr Chevalier is now confirmed dead, Eclipse doesn't have anything to worry about.
As for the Crown Prince, well, before he left the Stellarus Empire, he only heard that the Crown Prince was under investigation because of his involvement about [Ezekiel's death].
