*knock knock knock*
Sebastian open the door.
"Sebastian, were you looking for me? Did something happened to Jared?"
Vincent asking right after Sebastian open the door.
*smile* "Please come in first, Sir!"
Vincent come in Jared room. Jared was quietly lying on his bed. Vincent approaching Jared and look at him. Jared was only sleeping and nothing serious happened. Then Vincent confused. Vincent turn around and looking for Sebastian. Sebastian was nowhere in the room. Vincent felt like he just got a prank and head to Study Room.
In Study Room
Edward and Sebastian waiting in the Study Room
"Sebastian, have you distracted him?"
*smile* "Yes, I've called him to Sir Jared's room. But I think he's heading here right now."
"That's fine, it's already done" *staring at a certain direction with a smile*
*open the door*
Vincent arrived in the study room
"Welcome, Vincent/Sir Vincent" *Edward and Sebastian said it together with a big smile*
*confused* "What happened?"
*smile* "Nothing, we just prepared your new desk"
Edward said it while looking at a certain direction again. Vincent look at the surrounding and there were a new desk near Edward desk. He is stunned.
*smile* "Now, now. Don't be happy yet. We still have a lot of works to do"
Edward pointing at Vincent desk and in a blink of eyes, there were a bunch of documents in Vincent desk. Vincent look distress and start working in his desk. The three temporary assistant start to help too.

*writing* "You can, I've notify your instructor. He's currently busy but you will meet him this afternoon" *writing*
*writing* "Who is he?" *writing*
*writing* "Shamus" *writing*
Vincent stop writing, the three temporary assistants shocked and drop the documents. They were shocked because Vincent will be taught by Shamus himself, the most famous magician in this Empire.
*look at Edward* "Really?" *disbelieved*
*writing* "Yes, why would I lie to you. You better start reorganize your schedule soon. Starting tomorrow you've a lesson with him. Your class will be started after dawn until 10 o'clock in the morning" *writing*
*stunned* "That's too sudden"

*sigh* "I'll do my best" *start his work again.*
*writing* "Don't forgot you've work after class" *writing*
*writing* "I know" *writing*
They continue their works.

Verduny and Lydia finished eating.
"Waiter" *raise his hand*
The Waiter approached Verduny
"Yes? How could I help you, Customers?"

The waiter gone for awhile and come back with a bill. On the bill list it says 550 silver coins. Verduny paid the bills directly.
"My Lord, How much it is?"
"Don't worry, it's cheap. Let's go to our next destination."
The waiter shocked. Of course he is, 550 silver coins were a lot amount of money. But of course, it's nothing for Verduny. He is a Duke from the biggest Dukedom in the Empire after all. Verduny and Lydia come out from the restaurant and head to Kickshaw store as promised.
On the way to Kickshaw store
They passed on Jewels Store.
*halt* "Lydia, let's get in this store for a bit."
"Hmm?"
Lydia looked up to read the store's board. But Verduny hand immediately covering Lydia eyes.

"Welcome dear Customers. How could I help you?"
Lydia look at the surrounding.
"Jewels?"
"Let me take a look at your best jewels."
*smile* "Right away, Mr. Customers. Please have a seat while waiting."
Lydia and Verduny sat on the seats provided by the seller. The seller began to bring out the best jewelries he had. Lydia amazed on all of the jewels.
"Lydia, how do you think about all this jewelry?"
*come to her sense* "My Lord, they are all beautiful" *smile brightly*
The seller take out something again
*show a necklace* "Mrs. How about this ones? The gems on this necklace has a similar color with your eyes" *smile*
"It's true" *Verduny observed the necklace seriously*
"What a beautiful necklace"
Lydia stared in the necklace. Verduny pick up the necklace and wear it on Lydia neck. Then he smiles with satisfaction.
*Verduny look at the seller* "Do you have a mirror?"
"Yes, yes" *take out a mirror*
Lydia look herself in the mirror. Verduny get closer.
*whisper* "You look really beautiful with the necklace on you" *smile satisfied*
Lydia blushed and cover her face with her hand. Verduny sit back on his seat. The seller giggles looking at Verduny and Lydia.
"Seller, I want all of this jewels. Wrap them up!"

*smirk* "You're a honest seller" *take in the 4 millions gold coins*
"WAIT!"
Lydia shouted, Verduny and the seller looked at Lydia.
*flustered* "My Lord, it's a lots of jewelries. We don't need to buy too much of it." *flustered*
*confused* "Huh? Why? Am I prohibited to buy my wife jewelry?"
*sigh* "My Lord, it a waste of money." *uneasy*
*stroke Lydia head* *smile* "Don't worry, your husband are rich. I've a lots of money. This much jewel are nothing to me" *smug*
