Chapter 17 : Nobility

The reasons that the Nobles of the Kou Empire, Balbadd Empire, and Reim Empire had good views about the Alliance were about the implications of the Alliance to them and the possible benefits they would obtain. For Balbaddd kingdom Nobles, the reason they see the Alliance as a good thing is, of course, like the Merchants, they can now freely use the trade routes; however, like the merchants also have to give the Royal Family of Balbadd some profits.

However, these profits they will give to the Balbadd Royalty were also good news for them as they saw for the last couple of months after the third prince was born the country's changes. And they also saw the sudden and slow growth of Balbadd Kingdom's Economy from Alibaba's guidance and help to the council, which consisted of Generals, Merchants, and course Nobles of Balbadd.

Due to the info the members of the council told to the other merchants and Nobles who weren't part of the council, Alibaba unknowingly formed a faction due to seeing that Alibaba was really talented and wise to be able to propose revolutionary ideas in the Kingdom that can help the kingdom to grow in such a short amount time. It was also because of the rumors about Alibaba's terrifying amount of magoi in his body. And this faction wholeheartedly supports and wishes Alibaba to become the next king of Balbadd despite the first prince Ahbmad.

On the other hand, the Kou Empire's Noble reason for them to be approving in the alliance is almost the same as the Balbadd Noble's except that due to the news about Alibaba's birth, which was widely known among them due to the would-be assassin spreading the news to the high generals of Kou Empire which in turn some of the Nobles to learn about it. However, not everyone, of course, knew this.

The main reason that the Kou Empire Nobles support this Alliance is because of Alibaba's so-called talent, which they had heard of, and his wisdom and matureness he already seems to have. And when they saw Alibaba, who was still a 1 and a half-year-old child to be able to be proper and release a noble aura around himself, and their idea of Alibaba being a talented and smart child was reinforced when they saw Alibaba enter the ballroom with the Imperial Prince of Kou and Current King of Balbadd.

And lastly, on the other hand, why the Reim Empire Nobles have a good view on Balbadd's Alliance with Kou even if they aren't involved with it is because their great priestess told them Scheherazade had told them to build good relationships with Balbadd's Third prince. When most of the nobles heard this, they were surprised and confused as they didn't know why their great priestess ordered them to do this but, they did exactly what they were to do as the nobles after being guided by Scheherazade after over 200 years, they became to have blind faith in her as they all knew that every order that Scheherazade gave them was for the good of their country.

Then, on the other hand, the Nobles who didn't think Balbadd's Alliance didn't actually see anything bad at this as many kingdom's do form an alliance together through marriage all the time, so most of them didn't care as they thought they wouldn't be affected much anyway except for the Family business that is done in either Balbadd and Kou Empire.

So after the announcement of the Alliance. Various Nobles now started to talk with each other and forming some connections for future use at the party. While this was happening, many people tried to approach both Alibaba and Hakuyuu to form connections as most merchants and Nobles recognized their identities...

Although the Nobles and Merchant tried to form some contact with both of the two princes, only a select few were actually able to connect with both of them due to Casino and General Koji guarding both the two princes.

After talking with many Nobles and Merchants, Alibaba actually managed to form many connections on these events. In the future, surprisingly, Alibaba will gain a lot due to these newfound connections.

7 months after the Party

After the party and after many of the nobles and merchants left, Alibaba and Hakuyuu started to talk more and talked about Hakuyuu's other Siblings. His role as a general in the Kou Empire's army, etc. And Alibaba himself told Hakuyuu about his hobbies, his relationship with his brothers and his parents.

Hakuyuu was surprised at most of this and asked why Alibaba would tell him such personal stuff, but. Alibaba just said as he heard this question from Hakuyuu, "Well, although we had just met, I felt comfortable around you, although that might sound weird as I'm still a one year old saying it to a 14-year-old like you, Bro, what I meant is that you felt more like a brother similar to my second older brother Sabhmad to me unlike my older brother Abhmad.

When Hakuyuu heard this, he felt a feeling like when he felt when he was around his own real brothers, and due to this, he now saw Alibaba feel like a real younger brother to this. And after a few days after the party, Alibaba and Hakuyuu had spent time together. Alibaba even introduced Cassim to Hakuyuu once, although seeing their interactions Alibaba immediately saw that they couldn't get along too much as Cassim. However, a son of a high-ranking member of Balbadd, due to his father rising through the ranks, still acted most of the time like a thug and a hooligan, which did not blend well with Hakuyuu's own straight forward and overly serious. Personality.

The reason Alibaba was able to get along with Cassim, to begin with, even with his personality, was due to Alibaba liking Cassim's personality and quirks due to it reminding him of one of Solomon his past life friend back then. So after their initial meeting is not as good as he had wanted, Alibaba tried to make at least it work. And after a few hours, although not being overly friends, Alibaba managed to make Casssim and Hakuyuu bear with each other.

And then after a full 4 days after the Party now Hakuyuu and General Koji had to return to Kou Empire to go back to their usual routines, work and their responsibilities as a general of Kou, for Kojin and Being the Imperial Prince and a general as well for Hakuyuu. On this day, by asking his father repeatedly, Alibaba managed to convince King Rashid to let Alibaba come to the harbor to send Hakuyuu as King Rashid saw how his son and the Imperial prince got close in a short time.

Then while saying goodbyes to each other, Alibaba said: "Well then Hakuyuu big bro, it seems we won't be able to meet each other for a while after so, how about you take this."As Alibaba said this, he brought about a magical device shaped like a brick. He said to Hakuyuu with a confused look as he looked at the device that Alibaba gave him.

"Big bro Hakuyuu this is a magic device master Marcus, and I started to make a few months ago based on an idea I had for a magic cultivator, and this is a prototype we had made just recently finished, and I have one as well. So unlike other magic communicators, this magic tool allows a magician to pour magic in the device once, and it's only a bad side because it can only contact one person who is linked in the magic tool. So with this, even when you're already back in Kou Empire, you can at least stay in contact with me from time to time."
