Julius Novachrono – The Wizard King's Interest
In the Wizard King's office, Julius Novachrono sat with a wide grin, flipping through reports about the young Crown Prince's bold move.
"Solis Vermillion, you are quite an interesting one…"
Julius had always kept an eye on the young prince, intrigued by his intellect and discipline. Unlike most royals, Solis wasn't blinded by arrogance. He was pragmatic, tactical, and—most fascinating of all—he sought real change.
"Taking the king's place in Parliament… That's not something just anyone could do."
Beside him, Marx, his assistant, had a more serious expression.
"This could destabilize the noble power structure, Julius. The prince is making enemies among the highest-ranking families."
Julius chuckled. "Perhaps. But tell me, Marx… Do you think the kingdom is fine the way it is?"
Marx hesitated, then sighed. "No… but change always brings conflict."
Julius leaned forward, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
"Then let's watch closely. If Solis succeeds, he may become a ruler unlike any we've seen before."
The Magic Knight Captains' Council
A few days later, the Magic Knight Captains gathered for their regular meeting. But this time, the discussion was dominated by one topic—
The Crown Prince's rise to power.
Inside the grand hall, each captain's reaction varied.
Fuegoleon Vermillion, Solis' cousin, had a firm expression. "I have faith in him. He has trained tirelessly, and his vision for the kingdom is strong. He will not fail."
Across from him, Nozel Silva scoffed. "Faith is one thing, but politics is another. Do you truly believe the nobles will allow a boy to dictate their rule?"
Jack the Ripper laughed, sharp teeth gleaming. "Hah! Finally, someone's shaking things up. Maybe the royal brats will learn something about strength."
Charlotte Roselei crossed her arms, deep in thought. "This is unprecedented. If the prince succeeds, the structure of the kingdom could shift entirely."
Dorothy Unsworth, usually silent, giggled in her sleep. "A burning sun… devouring the old world… how fascinating…" she mumbled cryptically.
Yami Sukehiro leaned back, smoking. "Tch. The kid's got guts. He took the king's seat like it was nothing. I like him."
Some captains were supportive, some were skeptical, but one thing was clear—
Solis had caught the attention of the kingdom's most powerful warriors.
The Decision
Julius, now standing at the front, smiled at the room.
"Regardless of our opinions, this is a turning point in the Clover Kingdom's history. We must be prepared."
Then, turning to Fuegoleon, he asked—
"And tell me, Fuegoleon… Do you believe Solis Vermillion will succeed?"
Fuegoleon met his gaze without hesitation.
"He will not only succeed," he declared, "He will surpass all expectations."
Julius' smile widened.
"Then… let's see how far he can go."

His rise had truly begun.
