While Heda was recounting all of the events that happened related to the guild the past month, Jay started to prepare for his journey towards the guild hall. Jay left the ruined castle and started walking towards the teleportation tower on the northern area of the floating island.
"Master, during the past month, through everyone's great efforts we managed to start something called a Guild Territory. Of course, our guild hall is the central command of all of the establishments and settlements built."
When Jay heard this, he was surprised and thought "Did Heda found out about the abandoned mines?" but this thought of his got set aside when he heard Heda elaborating further on the whole guild territory thing.
"2 miles towards the northwest of the guild hall, where a small forest is located, a large number of hunters working for our guild has set up a hunting outpost there. 750 kilometers towards the east, beside the Nix River, a harbor town was built. 3 miles towards the southwest, there are 6 farming villages which also works for us. A mile towards the north, there are three trading centers. Two of the trading centers are just business partners with our guild while the last one belongs to us."
By the time Heda finished saying this, Jay already reached the teleportation tower. Not wasting any more time, Jay immediately entered the teleportation tower and requested to be teleported back to the Golden Fortress.
--- Golden Fortress, Greengarden ---
Just as Jay was about to leave, one of the black knights guarding the entrance of the castle blocked him and said, "My lord. Prince Frederick requested for your presence at the city's gates. Thank you for your time my lord." After saying this, the black knight stood aside and went back to his post.
"Huh? Why does the prince want to meet with me?" Jay asked himself before walking at a fast pace when he left the Golden Fortress and went to the city's gates.
...
City's gates...
There was currently a large-sized caravan waiting near the city's gates. The caravan mainly composed of merchants, travelers, and 5 golden and luxurious carriages. There were also around 50 soldiers of Wildergreene in charge of escorting the caravan.
Inside one of the golden carriages...
The whole family of the royalty was currently relaxing here. Queen Auburn, Prince Frederick, Princess Auriel, and Princess Hailey.
"Sorry for the delay mother. If Jay is really not on the floating island, then forgive me for that miscalculation of mine." Prince Frederick said in an apologetic tone since they were supposed to visit the Golden Phoenix guild hall a few weeks ago, but prince Frederick had to delay it since he knew Jay was still training at the floating island.
"Don't worry about it. I wanted to thank Jay face to face anyways. And if he decided to travel with us since we have the same destination anyways, I want to hear some stories about him." Queen Auburn said with an expectant look on her face.
Then suddenly, a soldier knocked on the carriage's door and said, "My queen, he's here."
...
The moment Jay arrived in front of the caravan, Heda already managed to tell him about how she and Roasted Boar recruited guild members and how everyone was doing so far with the guild quests.
"It looks like things are proceeding very well for the guild. But anyways, Prince Frederick asked me to come here, but where is he?" Jay mumbled softly while he tried looking around the caravan. Just as he was about to approach a random person to ask where the prince was, a soldier wearing the Wildergreene knight uniform approached him.
"My lord, follow me please."
After saying this, the soldier led Jay towards the golden carriage that Queen Auburn and co. was riding.
...
Inside the golden carriage where Queen Auburn and co. were at...
The moment Jay arrived, Prince Frederick just told him to come in. The moment Jay came in, he was surprised. Everyone from the royal family was here.
"Uhh... good morning?" Jay said and wondered why Prince Frederick summoned him here.
"Jay!" Princess Auriel exclaimed happily and suddenly grabbed one of Jay's arms and pulled him to sit beside her.
"Auriel!" Queen Auburn faked a cough to get Princess Auriel's attention, who was focusing all her attention at Jay.
Of course, after that, Princess Auriel calmed down. As for Jay, he really did not know what was supposed to happen now and thought, "So this is what it feels like to sit beside two princesses," because he was sitting down beside the two princesses, with him in between.
"Jay, I wanted to thank you for a long time now. I wanted to thank you for what you did that time." Queen Auburn said with sincerity and suddenly grabbed Jay's arms.
"I don't know if I was a bit harsh towards you before or not, but setting that aside, I hope you forgive me for everything."
"Okay then? What should I say at a time like this?" Jay thought to himself and had a weird expression on his face when he saw the queen holding his hands firmly. And seeing the look on Jay's face, Prince Frederick decided to speak up.
"Jay, as a way of saying thanks, the royal family of Wildergreene, our family, wants to give you 30% of the wealth and treasures from our treasury. As for the merchants and travelers nearby, they also wanted to give a couple of gifts to your guild for the meritorious deeds your guild members did for the past few weeks."
When Jay heard this, his jaw dropped and had a really shocked expression in his face. Jay exclaimed within himself,"WHAT!? 30% of what they have in their treasury?! HOLY S**T!" since he cannot just happily shout loudly in front of the queen.
"Hahaha... I really love that shocked expression of people when I see it. Hahaha..." Prince Frederick said and noticed Queen Auburn was still looking at Jay intensely and holding his hands firmly.
"Mother? Are you alright?"
Not only Prince Frederick, even the two princesses was weirded out by Queen Auburn's actions. Jay also did not know what to do since he cannot just push the queen away. Since this was the case, Prince Frederick first commanded the caravan to move out and head towards the eastern border of Wildergreene, where the Golden Phoenix guild hall was located.
...
After a few minutes later, when the caravan was moving at a really fast pace, inside the golden carriage, Queen Auburn finally spoke up with a smile on her face.
"Jay, how old are you by the end of the year?"
Everyone was really weirded out right now, especially after Queen Auburn asked that question. Of course, Jay just answered normally since he did not know what was going on in the queen's thoughts.
"My birthday had passed already. I am just 12 years old this year."
Just as everyone thought the atmosphere won't get any weirder than it is...
"Jay, even though I am around my thirties already, after four years... marry me."
The moment everyone heard that last sentence from Queen Auburn, they all had their own reactions. The two princesses had weird expressions on their faces, Prince Frederick slapped himself to check if he was dreaming or not, and Jay... Jay was having a lot of internal conflicts with his thoughts.
"No! Junior brother, NO!"
"I know she is really cute in her child transformation... NO! STOP THIS LINE OF THOUGHT RIGHT NOW!"
"Should I do it? SHOULD I DO IT?"
And just like that, the whole trip towards the Golden Phoenix guild hall continued. As for what Heda was telling Jay through the guild emblem at this time, Jay did not even assimilated it onto his brain since he was still having a lot of internal conflicts as he looked at the queen.
