《The Celestial Swordsman》Chapter 1.4: A Week in the King's Castle
Advertisement
The same day after meeting the king, the same man who had invited him to the castle, whose name turned out to be Arakan, a dwarf servant of the king, had informed Hoshi, that his shield, including getting all the materials would take seven weeks to make.
Afterward, he was assigned a guest bedroom on the right flank of the castle with a view of the city and mountains behind. It was a very nice room with a large bed, bathroom, and a couch-like object.
It was nearing night when Hoshi had gotten his room and new fancy clothes to change into as well as a robe for sleeping.
Since it was already dark Hoshi decided to order a delicious dinner of steak salad and baked potatoes along with water, since this medieval world didn't exactly have a lot of drinks.
After finishing his meal he went over to the large window, opened it, and looked forward to the city. Since he had a week to spare he planned to do some tourist activities as the city was quite large. After he would receive his shield he planned to ask for some food to take with him and head to the mountains.
When he was finished watching the city lit up by candles and magic Hoshi went to sleep.
The next morning Hoshi woke up full of energy as he was well-rested, changed clothes, and went over to the dining room. Hoshi already knew the layout of the castle, as Arakan had shown Hoshi around the castle.
At the entrance of the dining room, he met Arakan and a maid standing by the door, welcoming Hoshi in. There, waiting for him was a long dining table with dozens of dishes from all around the world. Sitting at one end of the table was the king, next to him — his mother.

Arakan invited Hoshi to sit down at the other and of the table and chose any meal he would like. Hoshi chose a salad, a chicken wing, and apple juice as his meal.
The king attempted to converse with Hoshi, but since they were on completely different ends of a huge table even when yelling Hoshi could not hear a single thing the king said.
Hoshi ate a bit more than what he chose at the beginning and at the end of breakfast was stuffed.
Hoshi thanked the king for the food even though the king didn't hear it, stood up, and exited the dining room, Arakan following behind.
"Sir, you can't just leave on you're own." Arakan said as he caught up to Hoshi, "You're royalty and you must be protected at all times!"
"Thanks." Hoshi said as he smiled at Arakan, "But you don't have to call me sir. Call me Hoshi or Satoh or Hoshi Satoh."
"O-OK... Satoh..." Arakan nodded as he agreed, "But where are you going?"
"Since I'm gonna be here a while, I decided I should venture around the city and find out a little more about you're culture and lifestyles."
"I see. Well if you would like I could show you around the city. I've lived here most of my life."
"That would be very nice. Let's go." Hoshi said as they continued walking.
That day Hoshiop and Arakan visited a park in the city, several markets, and a flower field.
They both returned happy that day and went to sleep ready for the next.
They explored the city for the next three days.
On the morning of the fifth day at the castle, Hoshi received good news from the king personally.
"Hello, mister Satoh. As you know it was planned that your shield would be ready in seven days. luckily when they heard that the ingredients and shield were for someone with a Celestials blessing they put our order as they're primary one and we were able to gather all the ingredients much faster, but do not fear the ingredients are top tier and the blacksmith was very careful creating the shield."

"That's great!" Hoshi excitedly replied.
"So now please follow me." the king said and turned around and began walking as Hoshi rushed beside him.
Hoshi followed the king through almost the entire castle to the left flank of the castle. There standing was a tall man with a light blue robe with different golden patterns all across it. The man was holding a white sheet that was wrapped around a tall rectangle-shaped object.
When they got closer the man greeted them and took off the sheet revealing a tall rectangle-shaped shield with a golden outline heading into the center where a light blue diamond was surrounded by dark blue highlights. It was Hoshi's new shield.
The man gave it to Hoshi and he took it. The shield was a bit heavy, but Hoshi was blessed by the Celestial of strength and had no problem holding it.
"This shield is amazing!" Hoshi exclaimed, "Does it have a name?"
"Celestial GalaxyGuard." the tall man replied in his deep voice.
Awesome! Hoshi thought, With my Celestial StarBlade and GalaxyGuard I can take down any enemy.
The blacksmith showed Hoshi how he could compress and expand the shield with magic in and out of the crystal in the middle of the shield, making it easier to carry.
"I understand you will be leaving now." the king said to Hoshi, "We will assemble a basic needs kit, with food, money, and a change of clothes for you."
"Thank you very much," Hoshi replied and went to his room.
