Scene: In Eluto Kingdom, the king sits on his throne when a messenger arrives.
Messenger: My king, I am a messenger from Gura Kingdom. I bring a message from their king for you.
King: A message from King Buhu of Gura Kingdom, for me? Tell me, what is the message?
Messenger: King Buhu says that this war has lasted long enough. Let's stop it here and start a new future. They propose the marriage of their child, Prince Rutu, and your daughter, Princess Hima. This marriage will reunite the two kingdoms and begin a new era.
Scene: Hima speaks sharply.
Hima: Absolutely not! I will never marry that idiot Rutu. Father, tell them this is completely unacceptable!
Scene: King Raju remains silent, seemingly deep in thought.
Hima: Father, what are you thinking?
Raju: Silence. Elders and leaders, what do you say?
Elder Fuju: My king, if you truly want the kingdom's benefit, then for the kingdom, yes, this is wise.
Elder Li: For a king, his entire kingdom is like his child. Sacrificing one child for the greater good isn't a bad idea.
Elder Fu: I don't think we should do this, Father. Let's hear what the king decides.
Leader Ki: I also disagree, my king. We cannot say what the true reason behind this marriage is.
Scene: Each elder gives their opinion. Out of 18 elders, 10 vote yes, 8 vote no.
King: Then according to the vote, Princess Hima's marriage to Prince Rutu should proceed.
Elder Li: Ultimately, my king, the decision is yours.
Scene: Hima interrupts.
Hima: Father, tell them this proposal is not acceptable!
Raju: Haahh… okay, I am ready for this marriage.
Scene: Some elves are happy, some shocked. Hima's face falls, tears stream from her eyes, and she runs away.
Raju: You may tell your king that I am ready for this marriage.
Messenger: As you wish, King Raju.
Scene: In the corridor, Hima runs, crying.
Hima: I will never marry that idiot, that mental prince! Grandfather!
Scene: She enters a room where Luo is standing.
Hima: Grandfather! Please stop Father—he has fixed my marriage!
Luo: Uh? Rest a little first. What's the problem? One day, a marriage must happen.
Hima: But… but… but he fixed my marriage with that idiot mental prince, Rutu!
Luo: What!
Hima: I will never marry in my life, but I absolutely will not marry him!
Luo: I will talk to Raju. You wait here.
Hima: Hmm!
Scene: Luo leaves the room. Hima continues crying.
Scene: In the throne hall, Luo confronts Raju.
Luo: Raju, what is this? You fixed Hima's marriage with Rutu?
Raju: Yes, Father.
Luo: Can I know what foolish reasoning made you arrange my grandmother's descendant's marriage with that Rutu?
Raju: Father, this is for the kingdom's benefit. Buhu doesn't want to fight anymore; he wants peace. This marriage will bring peace between the two kingdoms.
Luo: Uh? Do you really think Buhu will do that?
Raju: I know the chance is low. I am not foolish enough to fix Hima's marriage without proof.
Luo: Then what?
Raju: In exchange for this marriage, I will take 30% of his kingdom under our control.
Luo: Oh… I see. But…
Raju: Father, to gain something, sometimes you have to sacrifice something too.
Luo: Right… (sad tone)
Scene: One week later, at the academy, Mity is training.
Chin: Okay, now I will give you five a mission. Over there in the mountains, there is a box. Inside it is a key. You must bring that key back safely.
Everyone: Yes, sir!
Chin: Remember, teamwork is important. You must protect the person you are guarding with your life. Before becoming a personal guard, think twice.
Everyone: Yes, sir! We are ready to become guards!
Chin: Then go!
