Chapter 133: The beautiful mage estate.
One of the more stubborn mages, a twelve year old boy named Adam Marden refused to be scared off and instead, he chose to bravely stand in Cosmos’s way.
Adam Marden had golden hair, a sharp mouth and fiery spirit to match the insolence in his eyes. He was also short for his age, what he lacked in height he made up for with his tall attitude.
"You don’t own the crown princess. Step aside you big oaf, I have come to learn form her and I will not be deterred by the likes of you."
Cosmos looked at the little boy that he could easily flick away into oblivion with one finger. Why he always allowed the brat to stand up to him, he could not fathom. Perhaps, living among humans for a change had him softer. "Move along boy. the crown princess has important business to take care of. I don’t know if your brain works well but you should know that I am more powerful than you. I can incinerate you right where you stand."
"Hmph!" Adam wrinkled his nose, puffed up his chest and crossed his arms across it, looking up at Cosmos defiantly. "Try it old man!" he challenged.
Cosmos raised his hand, Sigrid quickly planted herself between the two. "Cosmos, we don’t kill innocent children, not even if they are annoying."
Before she could calm Cosmos whose lips were trembling, Adam peeked around her and smirked. "I knew the crown princess would protect me. She is the next high mage, she protects all of us. Just because you are more powerful than me now does not mean you will always be. I, Adam Marden will be the strongest mage in the world in future. Just wait old man, I have time on my side, when I am at my strongest, you will be older and weaker and I will kick your butt."
Some snickers came from the people around that were trying hard to pretend that they were not interested in yet another face off between loud mouthed Adam and the brooding mage knight that always traveled with the crown princess.
"What kind of name is Cosmos anyway? It sounds..."
