"Mr Vid. The man that you recommended me to you for the job," Jordan let out quickly.

Shaking his head, Edgar asked, "What?"
"Yes sir. And he also said that I should work for him but I refused and he said he would tell you to take me to work for the king," he added as soon as possble.
To his notice, when he menioned Vidor's name, the look on Edgar's face changed istantly and he knw that Mr Vid, although he did not know who the man was, obviously had more influence than Edar.
So taking that opportunity, he rushed to inform him of the plans Vidor had for him.
To him once dgar learnt taht he was going to be serving the king, he may not want to scold him much since his master had changed.
It was either he took hold of that opportunity or he got scolded for real this time.
Letting out an exasparatedsigh, Edgar loked sternly at Jrdan but the latter tried to still himselfand not show any wavering feeling and after sometime, Edgar shook his head.
"The king, eh?"
"Yes sir."
"WHY? Why is he changing your duties? Did you complain to him about work?"
"No. He asked why I was working till now and I told him I hoped to earn more and you were generous enough to give me this. So he wanted me to work for him and I refused."

Again, Edgar was flabbergasted at the luck and opportunities, Vidor was flinging this boy's way, yet it looked like the lad was ungrateful aNd not wanting.
"And what reasons this time might i ask why you rfused his offer?"
"Well, nothing. I just told him he would bully me and I would rather work for the king than him."

That was it. To Edgar, it was either Jordan was stupid or he did not have sense or even knows how touse them and this was one funny thing that was defintely happening.
Not notcing the shocked expression on his face, Jordan rappped on about what happened. "And he knows I do not like the king so maybe it is a punishment you know, like when you…"
"Pfff hahahaaaa… "
That was it.Edgar could no longer hide it again and let out his laughter loud and clear, cutting Jordan short and cofusing the young lad as well.
Minutes passed and Jordan did not do anything but allowed Edgar have his fill an once his laughter had died down, he attacked.
"Now, what is so funy, sir? You do not believe me?"
"No. It is not that i d not believe you. I do. I am just laughng that you readily picked the king you do nt like over him. Is taht how much you hate him?" Edgar lied trying to cover up the truth.
"Pff, he only bully's me and keep geting me in trouble. Of course, I would try my luck elsewhere other than me."
"Okay, as you wish. That is it for the night, you can go have your st now/'
"Now? I am supposed to be here until dan, right?"
"Well you ob just changed right? You serve the king. Now you ned to get a good night sleep so you can wake up on ime to meet the king. he loves punctuality and doesn't love those who slouches on their job."
"Yes sir." He turned around, ready to sprnt out of there before Edgachanged his mind when he recalle tehy ad an unfinished business. The last hing h wanted was the king finding out he allowed someone ride hi orse.
It woud not bode well that on hos first day, he had caused trouble.
"Sir, what about the horse?"
"Oh, the horses?"
"No. The horse Mr Vid, took."
"That. I would await im here myself and talk with him. Clarify things up and hope this fiasco ends."
"Okay sir. Please do. I am counting on you. Good night sir."
He quickly exited the stables before there was a change of mind, leaving Edgar to deal with Vidor.
"Tsk, I really do not know whether or not he is stupid or just invariably out of it and so naive?"
Regardless of what he thought, he really had a nice laugh with Jordan not fully understanding what was going on.
"Well, tomorrow he would know."
He peeled his gaze from the distance where Jordan had ran off to and looked at where the King's horse once stood.
'Hmm, so finally, the truth has been told. I wonder where you are always going to and what you are up to, my liege but I hope you are okay.'
Although Jordan ratted out Vidor, he dis not speak to Edgar about the coins Vidor gave him. Thank goodness he didn't cause Edgar would have easily figured out why the other boys always slept off when he came. Once they saw Vidor, he threw them a pouch and then walked in to get a horse and they would sleep off or pretend to.
Edgar had always changed thwm but they always found out from the last boy what happened and why?
So basically everyone followed the same routine except Jordan who spoke to no one and was new as well.
Now, he was caught but was lucky, very lucky. On normal days Vidor usually gave silver coins to not make the boys look so much into who he was but this time around he did give him gold because he was in a hurry and took the wrong pouch.
The second he got to his room, Jordan hid the gold coins amongst his others that he had saved and smiled happily as he went to sleep.
This was glorious.
"Yes. I guess I was correct in using that man's name. Good thing I escaped. If not... Gosh... " he shivered lightly as a flash of the terrifying aura that seepwedoit if Edgar flashed before his mind.
"Oh boy. Narrow escape. Once I am serving the King, I can be rid of this man for good."

Just as it was planned, the next morning came quickly and Edgar went to get Jordan.
He had warned him to be early and surprisingly he was already dressed up and ready to go.
"Hey lad," Edgar called him out from where he stood.
"Good morning sir," he ran up to meet him amd with a lovely smile, awaited the next order.
"You are sure you want to do this?" Edgar inquired. Knowing fully well that what the young man was going to meet was definitely not what he expected, he needed to warn him.
Truthfully, he spoken to Vidor at night and he asked him to properly find out of that was what Jordan wanted so he was doing just that.
"Yes sir. Very sure."
"How sure are you?"
"Extremely sir. This is all I want."
"You need to be certain because once you agree, there is no pulling out," Edgar warned.
"Sir. I do not think I would want to."
'Whatever it is, I think Sir Edgar knows I would benefit and maybe trying to discourage me and even if that is not the case, I would still go. It has to be better than Mr Vid and his jealousy.'
"So?" Edgar called out pulling him out of his thoughts.
"Yes sir. This is my final answer."
"Okay. Let us be on our way then. Once you go in, you are on your own. He has been informed of your coming."
"Thank you sir."
Together they made their way towards the King's chambers and like he said, he left him alone with the eunuch and went his way.
"Hmmm." The King's eunuch scrunitinized him from head to toe but did not utter a word and pushed open the door.
Earlier on, Vidor had warned that when Jordan came he was to be allowed in without them announcing him.
Without a word, he knocked twice in the door and then pushed it open then stepped back for him to go in. "Remember, no touching." And then he closed the door behind him.
"Weird." Jordan muttered to himself before turning to face the chambers in all of its glory.
It was at this moment Jordan took in everything he saw in the room. It depicted real strength, royalty and the life virtually almost everyone wanted.
While his eyes roamed around, with his feet following closely behind, he failed to notice the presence of the one person in the room.
Finally that person strode out from wjere he had been watching the young lad wuth an apple in his hand.
Taking a bite, he spoke. "Hmm. Seen enough?"
Shocked, Jordan turned around quickly and looked at the intruder. The moment his eyes landed on Vidor, his eyes narrowed into an angry stare.
"You again."

"Me?"
"Yes. What are you doing here? Where is the king? Don't tell me it is another ploy of yours like what you did last night, stealing the King's horse.. You almost got me in trouble! If not for my witted thinking, who knows. So?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
