I, as Prince now, do not lie.

I am a nervous person. I am nervous when it comes to anything.

Today, I have finally been crowned Prince. I am only 15.

Am I able for the job? Only time will tell.

Who knows if I fail, there are many possibilities this can turn out to be.

-Prince Y/N, 1348. (Excerpt from, Kindling Fire.)

This is not good.

It has been a day since the incident, and I've already been given a bad reputation to other servants.

I was told to not exit my room until told so, by my master, and I listened.

Do I have a choice? No. It's my master. I need to obey.

Most of the time, I'm in here practicing my sword forms, but other than that, laying on my bed.

I thought Mordred would come and hang out with me since I think we are semi-friends, but uh...

No.

I feel like I don't fit in, I haven't seen most of the servants, but I'm already getting a bad feeling.

Could I be the outcast? No...I'm a 5-Star Saber.

But I need to act like one.

How do most 5-Stars act? Noble,? Kindhearted? Then again, I haven't seen most of them...

Y/N: "AGH!!! What is this? I'm a five-star! The highest there is! I need to start proving myself now!"

Getting off my bed, I looked at myself in the mirror.

Maybe I should...

Y/N: "Hey, what's that?"

Picking it up, it was along with the collection of things to commemorate me through legends.

Y/N: "Saber of Black...? Is it like a saber wearing black-"

Y/N: "Saber Prince Y/N answering your call. I will solely protect my master until my final breath. Allow me to fight all of your battles."

---

Y/N: "This is bad...really bad...other saber, don't do this! You'll waste your time here! You are supposed to be the true Saber of Black, not me!"

Siegfried: "I think this is what's supposed to be. Someone needs to be the sacrifice here, and I need my position to be fulfilled, it's a win-win."

---

Y/N: "Sieg, any chances we win this?"

Sieg: "...?"

Y/N: "Who am I kidding. We are going to win this! Am I right?!"

---

Astolfo: "Strawberry or Vanilla?"

Y/N: "Who would eat vanilla straight up like it is?"

Astolfo: "I meant ice cream dummy!"

Y/N: "I-ice...scream? What's that?"

Jeanne: "He has not experienced the world like you have, Astolfo."

Astolfo: "Fear not Y/N! Your teacher will teach you everything about this lovely world! Once this is all done, we will go explore it together!"

Y/N: "Sounds great!"
