Arselan System: AI Controller
Chapter 036: Chat with Iskandar

In front of the dormitory, there was a saung of seven by three meters of six-piled. There were four square tables with four chairs each. There are digital devices at each table to support the learning process of the students of the academy. So, if there are students who do not have a personal device facility, they can use this device to learn.

Not long in the afternoon. The light of the twilight sun is still faintly visible in the western horizon. Ats sat at one of the saung tables alone after praying. He began to write the literary task mandated to him. While waiting for the next spiritual activity, this will be a useful activity. After all, he had dinner before evening.

"Newly read what, Ats?" an unfamiliar voice sounded. Ats turned his head and found Iskandar waving with a smile on him. The ruby-eyed young man seemed to have hidden intentions behind his smile—it was just Ats' assumption anyway, so he put up a vigilance.

"Your Majesty Is?" Ats gave a question mark look. His eyes were like saying, "What's wrong?"

"Hais .. you are still stiff," Iskandar pulled a seat in front of Ats position so they faced each other, "This is the academy. Don't be formal. Call me kayak usually. Uh, since we're cousins, you can call my name directly."

"That's too much for me" Ats refused to speak nonformally. His attitude showed that he did not want to get too familiar with this Second Prince. If he was too familiar, it could be that he was really dragged into the imperial political competition.

"Is the fraternal cord between my father and your mother not enough to remove the wall?" asked Iskandar astonished, this time with intonation that seemed flat. He looked closely at Ats, then again persuaded, "If that is not enough, consider me as a brother of your sister. Doesn't that mean we're like siblings?"

"..."

Ats did not answer. In fact, he was quite surprised to hear the fact that his sister was in consort with the Second Prince. He had indeed heard that his sister was inaugurated as the youngest daughter, but he never thought that the cause was that.

"Then—" said Ats lirih to make Iskandar must sharpen his hearing, "I don't need to worry anymore about Princess Ayya. I hope he can grow up well and healthy."

"Huh? What the hell are you talking about?" Iskandar clucked. He was really surprised by this stiff boy. His attitude seemed to reject the existence of the prince.

"It's nothing," Ats shook his head slowly. However, he did not want to get too close to power. His family was the emperor's main supporter. However, they would be the frontmost opposition if there were any irregularities in the policies of the emperor. That's why the emperors were so disinclined to this family long ago.

"Huh, come on," Iskandar sighed resignedly. He knew that approaching the boy surnamed Asir was not easy with this position. However, that does not mean that you cannot. He can persuade her next time. "Actually, I just wanted to say thank you."

"For what?" Ats blinked his eyes twice. The Asir boy felt he had never helped Iskandar in the least. He even bothered her a few times. Consider what he has done until the Second Prince is willing to thank him.

"No, it's not just me, actually" Iskandar shook his head, then stared at the garden in the dorm yard. It was a beautiful garden planted with a wide variety of ornamental flowers and red shoots. "If this matter is certain, the elders will definitely thank you as well."

"Elder?" Ats frowned not understanding, "What do you mean, Senior?"

"It's about Uncle Han and Aunt Razana," explained Iskandar with a smile that re-expanded on his lips, "You must understand, right?"

"Oh," Ats immediately understood. He recalled that his teacher was part of the Altair Imperial Family. That professor's bachelorhood might have made the elders of the imperial family fret. So, when a rumor blows, they immediately stir.

"Say, you're the match sirthe two of them, huh?" iskandar asked seriously, but still with the same smile.

"Full mate?" Ats immediately shook his head. What does that mean anyway? He had intended to help both of them, but it didn't go that far.

"Haha, the important thing is they can be happy really," said Iskandar happy. When he laughed, the aura of his body changed. The smile on his face seemed to change into a grin that held thousands of expressions. "Ats, you know Greetings of Eden, right?"

"Eh?" the swift objection left Iskandar astonished. There was an expression of disbelief on his face. "Times?"

Ats nodded seriously. He knew one or two things behind the Salam Eden. However, he did not know him well at all.

"That Eden greeting is the worst among third-year children" Iskandar explained as trying to remind amnesiac patients, "There is a time that has not known him?"

"If it's a matter of rumors, I know," Ats said, answering Iskandar's curiosity, "But I'm not the one who really knows him."

"Don't you guys ever meet?" Iskandar ascertains the information that was once conveyed to him. Hearing the question, Ats became suspicious. "We did meet before he was expelled from the academy, but it was just a quick glance."

"Oh, so, huh?" the expression on Iskandar's face turned flat, "You only met at a glance? Is it because you suspect him?"

"...."

Ats did not answer. He suspected that the Second Prince had known of the possibility that Salam Eden was a spy. With that status, it was only natural that he knew.

"It's true, right?" Iskandar asked for confirmation without expecting an answer, "You are great to be aware of it. The system you developed with Uncle Han is really cool."

"...."

Ats again did not answer. This saung is too open. He doesn't want to talk about Arselan here. It just so happened that the prayer call reverberated. They also need to finish the conversation.

"Arselan did help me a lot" Ats said just before he stood up. He was soon ready to go first. Without waiting for an answer from Iskandar, he immediately rushed to Surau to pray.

Ats rushed back to the dormitory after that. He did not want to hang out with Iskandar anymore. For him, it would be a troublesome thing. Unfortunately, the Second Prince seemed unwilling to let go before the conversation was over.

"Come on, I know you have time" Iskandar asked half-forcibly, "Let your brother interrupt your time for a moment."

"What do you want to talk about, Senior?" ask Ats flat. He doesn't want to talk for long. It would be better if he continued his literary duties.

"It's about your research" explained Iskandar who then gave the code to Ats to go to a more private place. They also entered an empty room that is usually used for additional activities or evening study by the students of the academy. This is a classroom style room in the past that was full of tables and benches.

Before chatting, Iskandar took out an object first. It's shaped like a ball. When pressed on one side, it bloomed instantly, then floated above Iskandar's palm.

Arselan captures the detection wave later. He immediately reported the type of device used by the Second Prince to Ats. It's the latest anti-spy device.

"This place is safe from eavesdropping" said Iskandar lightly, "We will talk freely here."

Ats did not relax his suspicions in the slightest. He's even more vigilant. The Asir boy had no idea what the Second Prince was going to talk about, but it was definitely not something simple.
