My King System

Once Yuki was returned back to the kingdom which he was supposed to be a prisoner at, he relaxed himself and exited the narrow hallway he was in before calling out to Zero. Yuki made a wise decision in returning as it avoided him having to deal with his captures, finding out that he escaped. If they had found out about that, Yuki would simply get recaptured but instead be executed as he would be too much of a threat because he was capable of escape under such extreme conditions. As such, Yuki decided that he would only leave the kingdom through the use of Zero\'s powers at night. This was due to the fact that his captures would assume he was asleep and wouldn\'t suspect a thing if Yuki\'s necklace didn\'t move at all during the night. 

"Where to go now? I guess I\'ll have to go back to the bar because that\'s the only place here which would allow me to sleep in unless I could somehow find a house here. I would first have to find an empty one which would only exist if its owner had left the kingdom and no one else had claimed it after that. It would be hard but not impossible," Yuki said to himself as he walked through the streets of the kingdom in search of an adviser or just a house in general. With Yuki being new to the place, he would need some help to navigate the kingdom. 

As he walked past many people, Yuki got a couple stares but no one bothered to approach him and neither did he approach others. Everyone he looked at seemed to have something wrong about them. They all looked to have ill intentions on their face which Yuki didn\'t want to deal with at that moment. All Yuki wanted to do was find an easy and quick way to live peacefully in the kingdom he was in without having to attract a lot of attention. 

After walking for quite some time, Yuki found a group of fairly young people. Not to say that they were kids, however they weren\'t adults either. One of them looked to be around Yuki\'s age but the rest looked a bit older. Yuki assumed them to be about 18 or 19 years old. As such, he decided to approach them. He didn\'t want any trouble, all he wanted was some guidance. As such, Yuki approached them. 

"What do you want?" the tallest one of the group asked Yuki in an irritated tone.

"I\'m new here so I was looking to get some information on how I should act in this kingdom. Could you help me with that?" Yuki asked as he expected to get beat up or laughed at. However, he didn\'t receive anything resembling that, instead he was surprised. 

"Sure I guess. Is there something specific you\'re looking for?" the tallest one of the group asked. 

"For starters, I would like to find a place to live for a while. I know that some one must have left this kingdom by now. So I was looking for an empty house which I could live in. Is there any way you could help me with that?" Yuki asked. 

"We actually do know a place and he could show it to you. However, it\'s gonna cost you some money along with some questions which have to be answered as well," the tallest one of the group replied. 

"That\'s fine by me. How much are you looking for in terms of silver and what are your questions?" Yuki asked in relief. 

"Well, you\'re going to have to pay 10000 silver and I only have one question. You mentioned that you\'re new around here. If you haven\'t realized, this place has been closed off from the rest of the world for a while now and it\'s constantly being guarded. Since that stands to be true, how are you new here? How did you manage to get in here?" the tall one asked Yuki. 

Yuki was completely backed into a corner. He didn\'t expect to mess up that barely. His captures didn\'t tell him what to do in a situation such as this. However, Yuki\'s quick thinking came in handy as he thought of something. 

"I\'ll make it 20000 silver if you forget the question you asked and move on for the day," Yuki proposed. 

"Make it 25000 and you\'ve got yourself a deal," the tall one tried to negotiate. 

"Hmmm... that does sound like a good offer, but what if I just answer the question and you leave with only 10000 silver?" Yuki asked sarcastically. 

"20000 silver it is!" The tall one quickly changed his mind as he realized that he was pushing his luck. 

Yuki extracted the 20000 silver from his setting and handed the tall one of the group the pouch of silver with a smile on his face. 

"One last question. What makes you think that we won\'t just run away from you and keep the money you gave us?" the tall one asked as he began to grin at Yuki. 

"Oh, that\'s an easy question. Where do you think I get my money if I could give you that much silver without a care in the world? I think you know what I\'m talking about. So, if you want to keep on living, please comply with our agreement. Secondly, you don\'t have anything to lose by showing me the house that\'s empty. At max, you\'ll only lose a couple hours," Yuki explained and watched as the faces of all the members of the group\'s faces turn pale from realizing that Yuki was a dungeon raider. 

"Excuse my word choice. I was just trying to be funny. Of course, we were planning on showing you the way to your new home anyway. We would never think about scamming you," the tall one replied as he calmed himself down and began to guide Yuki towards the house which would act as his base of operations and would act as the place which he would call home. However, as he thought of his new home, he realized something else. 

"Where are these kid\'s parents?"
