The Golden Throne

The guard laughed at Liu Feng. "Take my hand off? Who do you think you even are? First, you disrespect the city itself, and then you disrespect an esteemed member of the mage tower? You will enter the city alright, but as a prisoner.".

Liu Feng looked down and raised his hand to hold the guard's wrists. He started squeezing the wrist. The guard's sneering face changed almost immediately. His wrists turned blue, and he shouted with pain. He immediately let go of Liu Feng's collar and fell back. Seeing a boy attack a city guard, the rest of the guards took their weapons and pointed them at Liu Feng.

"Hands up! On you knees, now!", they shouted, ready to attack him.

"Oh god. I really made this place too well. I really did not think that this situation would ever come. I really don't want to hurt these poor fellows, but what can I even do.", Liu Feng thought as he sighed. Then, he glanced at the apprentice who had come to welcome him. He winked at the boy and gestured him to take care of the guards.

The child nodded, and he shouted, "Stop! This man is a respected guest of the Mage Tower. Put down your weapons."

"But, he spoke so rudely, he needs to be puni-"

The apprentice raised his hand, silencing the guards. "Are you the person who had called master? Master is expecting you. Please come in."

Liu Feng just nodded in approval and walked in front of the boy. Then, he stopped for a moment, and a small flash came from his hand. He flicked a coin to the guards.

"For your troubles. All of this was a small misunderstanding." he smiled and continued walking inside the city.

All the guards and the onlookers looked astonished at the sight. The master of mage tower was growing to be a symbol in Dilheim and was becoming somewhat of a myth outside. To see a haggard, and poor looking boy being invited by that mysterious figure was truly surprising.

The moment that Liu Feng left the area, all of the people who were still waiting outside the city waiting to enter descended into chatter. The hot topic of the day was obviously that boy who had attacked the city guard but was allowed to go in unscathed because of the master of the mage tower.

"I heard that the mage tower actually usurped power from the city lord. I hear that he is distraught because of the missing young city lord.", one of the men said. 

Immediately the city guards looked at the starting point of the rumours and went up to the man. "If you want to enter the city, I suggest you stay quiet. Spreading all sorts of useless rumours. I don't understand, what do you even get by doing all this?", the guard scoffed.

Liu Feng went inside with the apprentice. He saw that most of the constructions of Dilheim were slowly coming to a finish. It was shaping out to be a modern city of Earth, just like in Liu Feng's memories. Liu Feng went to the mage tower, and went up to the sixth floor directly.

Lucas looked at Liu Feng with surprise. 

"So you really survived. And you are in the later stage of the sixth order? You truly raise eyebrows no matter what you do."

Liu Feng laughed. "First, give me my token and give me a room. I need to have a bath and change my clothes. I have to look my part before going back to the mansion"

Lucas gave a gold medallion with the word Dilheim written majestically on it to Liu Feng.

"By the way, it seems that the mage tower has reached a cult status here. All the people I have seen were respectful to that apprentice and were way too kind to an orphan."

"Well, the orphans help out with the city's peace and order. The mage tower made many friends during this time. Well, go wash yourself, I need to talk to you about all the guests that you are inviting."

Liu Feng went to a salon on the streets first. Because his body had gotten a sudden influx of mana, all parts of the body grew, including his hair. It was far too long, and Liu Feng had it cut to his normal cut.

"You are also imitating the young lord's haircut? You should understand that it won't make you more popular.", the barber warned Liu Feng. He laughed and went on with the cut.

"Wow, you look surprisingly similar to the young lord. Maybe you could actually pull this cut off."

Liu Feng came out of the shop and went back to the mage tower. He took a long bath and got changed. Now, he looked just like he did when he left, except that he was a few inches taller and looked more serious. 

He went to the mansion, where the attendants welcomed him immediately. He called for Sir Nicholas.

"Your Highness! You are okay! But I believe that you owe me an explanation. The school said that you were missing in the magical forest, but the master of the mage tower said that you just left school to go somewhere else, and told me not to tell your parents anything."

"Well, the master was right. Let's just say that I skipped school. Now, how are things with the city? If everything is fine, I will be leaving for school tomorrow, or maybe today."

"Everything is fine, Your Highness."

"Good. I just have to speak with the master once, and I will leave for the magic academy this night."

He went back to the mage tower. He saw the phoenix roaming around. He approached her.

"Hello, how are you. How are you enjoying Dilheim?"

"You are finally here? I was wondering what sort of place does not have a host. This place is fine. You have quite a few surprises here, and they really interest me.", the phoenix said.

"Forgive me, but what do I call you? It is not suitable to call you a phoenix in the city."

"A name huh? You can just call me Feng Huang then."
