3 Chapter 3 Alibaba Saluja(2)

Rashid also saw when Sahbmad grew up, he was a brilliant child and had a knack for identifying valuable Items and the instinct to choose proper decisions when Sahbmad was tested by Rashid himself and a very famous merchant that was currently staying in Balbadd.

When the merchant saw Sahbmad's talent to become a merchant he had wanted to make him as he once said to Rashid after they tested him "Your highness of Balbadd this second prince of yours have amazing talent in being a merchant."

"The second prince also has the rare gift of having very discerning eyes which most successful merchants are known to have. If your highness allows me to properly educate the second prince in the ways of being a merchant, I will give your country a 10% discount on my goods."

When Rashid heard what the merchant said and his high evaluation of his own son, which most people of the palace thought was a coward and useless. Of course, after the merchant said this Rishad accept the merchant's proposal as he thought that even a 10% discount of goods would save Balbadd a ton of money.

And as Rishad also saw the wanting look on Sahbmad face and agreed to it. After this event in the palace, everyone from Balbadd heard that the second prince had become the disciple of one of the most known merchant groups in Balbadd.

Many had mixed reactions to this as most of them thought that the second prince was good for nothing. Ahmad, on the other hand, was pissed when he heard this as he thought to himself as he had just gotten the news.

"How could that weakling trash be able to have talent. that trash wasn't even confident enough to confront me how could he possibly become a disciple one of the merchants." As Ahbmad even when he is still 8-years-old, he was already very arrogant and thought that his brother was a weakling and trash.

Then after this Ahbmad began to plan to sabotage his brother once he returns as when he had gotten the news Sahbmad had already left the palace and had followed the merchant to start his lessons to become a merchant.

Present time

As Rashid thought of all of what happened to his Sons recently and it was already a month since Sabhmad had left, while Ahbmad was still himself which was currently playing around and hanging out at noble banquets.

Rashid also remembered another event while he was waiting for Anise in the room to finish giving childbirth finally. Rashid had remembered when he told some of his most trusted subordinates and loyal Nobles who is an ally about Anise's pregnancy and his plan to make his third son become the future king of Balbadd.

When the high-ranking members of Balbadd who Rashid had invited heard this half of them agreed with Rashid's idea and a half were not. one of them said to Rashid "Your highness we agree to your idea as everyone here knows that the first price Ahbmad is clearly not fit to become the future king of Balbadd and the first price had also angered many people already so many noble families in Balbadd might disagree. And the second prince, although talented in being a merchant, doesn't have the attribute to become king."

"But your majesty, if the soon to be born the third prince is gonna be a disappointment we will have to make the second prince instead." Rashid nodded at this, but in his mind, he thought that his child with Anise would definitely be a disappointment. But then just after they said this, the opposing side said

"But your majesty it's been a tradition ever since the founding of Balbadd that the first prince should become the king even if the first prince is a disappointment and a talentless." As they said this, the two sides began to argue, but eventually, the committee had finally reached a compromise.

The compromise was if the soon-to-be-born third prince if the child becomes very talented and has the temperament and personality fit for a king, they will accept him. And also if people still disagreed with this, they will hold a contest for the two princes and said which one of the princes has more support from the citizens and have the largest connections, riches, etc.

Rashid himself along with some royal doctors and a royal magician who was currently working for the Saluja royal family. Was here in assisting Anise's childbirth. The magician was here because the magician knew life magic, and if anything bad happens to Anise while she gave birth, the magician could help them.

Then suddenly, as Anise started her Labor, the world had started to change. On the north sudden blizzards had happened on a common sunny day. In the south Volcanoes which hadn't erupted for millions of years had erupted. In the east, flowers started to bloom at the same time. And last in the night sky of the west millions of comets started to fall along the bright sky and thunders and the hurricanes were happening.

The people of Balbadd noticed this as they saw that in the middle of the palace a swirling light was floating on top of the very room Anise was currently giving birth to. Then suddenly, after Anise finally gave birth to her son, the swirling lights that were on top of the palace surged to the room and started to head to the just-born child.

When Rashid and everyone who was in the room noticed that a bright light suddenly came and suddenly surrounded Asine's newborn child, the light blinded them. Still, just as the lights swiftly came, it disappeared immediately but when they noticed that a third eye symbol appeared on the centre of the forehead of the newborn.

But unlike everyone who was blinded by the light the magician who was in the room saw what really happened he was greatly shocked as in all of his life this was the first time he had seen just a large amount of Rukh surrounding a person and a baby no less. When he finally got his bearings back, he saw that this just born child must be a miracle child to have this much Rukh surrounding him.

After this Everyone finally got back there bearings and then Rashid who had never encountered something like this before as the magician what had happened and the only thing that the magician was able to say was "Your Highness Saluja the third prince might be a miracle child that can only be born in a thousand years, as even I a graduate at Magnostadt Academy had never seen this much rukh on someone before much less a baby."

When everyone heard this, they were shocked at this, and the worry of Rashid that his son would be a disappointment like Ahbmad is gone. He became proud as he saw that his third child seems to be a miracle child. He said with a confident tone in the room "Since this child has given the world such a reaction to the world and rukh once he was born, I now proclaim that the third prince's name will be Alibaba Saluja the luck and Future of Balbadd."
