The black robe guy is none other than kiriyo. Son of lady chelsea who we met in Gines.
His face had a big scar on his left cheek.
“What!?! Do you know Chelsea by any chance?” Alec asked.
“Why won’t I know my own mother's name?” Kiriyo said.
“Then why are you doing this!?!” Alec said in shock.
“Because I want to.” Kiriyo replied.
“Tch.” I said.
“How can you!?! Do you know your sister kiwari is still looking for you? Your mother cries always!!” Alec said.
“Leave it, no point in telling him.” I said.
“About Myst. He was a bother. We were going to get rid of him at some point. Now or later. Your luck is bad that he had to die when you were there.” Kiriyo said.
“Wind Push.” I enchant and head for kiriyo's belly. My speed is faster than ever.
I land a kick straight in kiriyo's belly. His internal organs take a hit. He spits blood. I punch him in face. My speed is continuous with wind push. I land another punch in belly! I was going to punch his head but something weird happened!! The next moment he kicked me from my back!! I went flying in tree. His kick is more powerful than me.
“Demonic paralysis." Kiriyo enchanted.
His magic covers my body and I can’t move.
“Only if I was allowed to kill you, I would have. But, *cough cough* I’ll let this dragon do the job for me. See ya, if you make it alive from here. Hopefully you will, so next time my order is to take your head.” Kiriyo said and vanished in thin air.
The dragon wakes up!! The dragon roars. His eyes, they aren’t present there. It’s been overtaken by darkness.
Kiriyo managed to escape from the fighting scene. But a few miles away, he lays down coughing.
“I can’t reach castle like this. I need to rest. If I hadn’t used ability Master gave me I might have been in better condition-*cough cough* This sickness... My time is near. Time stop wore me out immediately..” Kiriyo said to himself and lays down on the river bank. Kiriyo’s hand had blood from his coughing.
“Dragon's going to kill you!!” Mei shouted.
The Dragon stopped for a second!
Kiriyo's spell broke!
I dodge back.
“Wind push!!” I said and jumped in sky at a full speed.
I land on dragon's head, “My bare hand won’t bring you down. I’m sorry for what they did to you.”
“Mei!! Use blood control when I finish its eyes off.” I shouted to Mei.
“Alright!” Mei shouted and sent her blood soldier to invade into Dragon's body.
“DARK SPEAR!!” I enchanted and Dark spear appear from ground and pierce through dragon's eyes from below.
I jump from his head.
“BLOOD CONTROL: TOTAL DESTRUCTION!” Mei enchanted!
The blood from dragon's body bursts.
“I couldn’t take out all blood. It wasn’t enough, his body is way too big for me to use blood control efficiently.” Mei said.
The dragon falls on ground.
“Let’s maintain our distance!” I said to Alec and Mei.
“Okay.” They replied, and we got back a little.
“Is it finished?” Alec asked.
Slowly The dragon's eyes started filling up with darkness, and it stands again.
“Not soon, I guess.” I said.
“RAAAAAAAAA" The dragon roared loudly.
The dragon uses claws to attack us! We dodge back.
“GAAAAA!!” The dragon breathed fire. Those flames were lighter than Egan's. But, still it’s far more dangerous than my fire. We manage to dodge the fire somehow, but the forest area was burnt. The trees were all burnt out. So was ground.
“Mei! Freeze his body completely except for his neck. We will try cut its neck.” I said to Mei.
“Alright!” Mei replied.
“Alec, use dark spear with me. Try to point them at his neck!” I said to Alec.
“Alright!” Alec said.
“Mei now!!” I shouted.
“ICE PRISON!” Mei shouted and froze Dragon's body.
“DARK SPEAR!!” I and Alec shouted and dark spear appear from ground and head towards Dragon’s neck. Dark spears make holes in neck, but couldn’t cut it. Some of our dark spears missed and hit into the body and wings!
The Ice breaks because of the spears.
“RAAAAAAA!!” The dragon roared and breathed fire while looking at sky.
“Tch! CELESTIAL ORBIT!!” I enchanted and Six big orbs surround dragon.
“That’s the same magic, which you used against Dymnix?” Alec asked me.
“Yea, but these Six orbs should be more powerful than those smaller ones. Hopefully.” I said.
“AAAAA!!” I shout and the electricity stored in orbs falls on dragon.
The dragon just stood there. Getting shocked yet looking straight at us.
“Its like it doesn’t feel any pain.” Alec said.
“It doesn’t most likely. Who knows what they did to this poor thing.” I said.
Looking at dragon I thought, “Mei is almost at her limit. Alec can carry on, but we don’t have any weapon to cut its neck. Just mere magic.”
“Alec, how sharp are your light blades?” I asked him.
“Most likely they can cut through him.” Alec replied.
“Go for the head, I’ll divert him. Try to make it one single cut.” I said.
“Got it.” Alec replied.
“What shall I do?” Mei asked.
“Conserve your mana.” I said to her.
“Ok..” Mei replied.
It was already a cloudy day, looked like rain could start anytime.
I rush towards Dragon.
“HELL FIRE!!” I enchanted and tried to burn him. But no effect.
Alec sneaked in the sky while I was doing this, and he was floating right above Dragon's neck.
Dragon looks at me and tries to attack me by fire.
“NOW ALEC!!” I shouted.
“GREAT BLADE OF LIGHT!!” Alec shouted and summoned a big light magic single edged Axe.
“DIEEEE!!” Alec shouted and cuts through Dragon's neck completely.
The neck and the body falls down, and blood falls on ground.
We breathe heavily from the panic.
“We killed it.” Alec said and comes down on ground.
“We did it... WE DID IT!!” Mei said.
“Yea, let’s go home now.” I said.
As Seji turned back to Dragon, a purple little light orb enters seji's body.
I felt my heart skipped a heartbeat...
“Yeah.” Alec replied. We turn our back and started talking. We were starting to walk but! Alec turned back and noticed the neck was joining back with body.
Alec thinks, “ Was The claw here? But Dragon was right behind me.”
“If the claw is moving..SEJI LOOK OUT!!” Alec pushed me away...
The claw of Dragon pierced right through Alec’s belly, and he smiled.
“What the..” I said.
“AAAAAAAAAAA!!” Mei shouted in pain and terror.
Dragon pulls claw out of Alec’s body. The dragon is unstable. It was trying to stand up.
I pick up Alec's body. He have lost consciousness.
“Woi, Alec. Talk bro. Talk to us.” Seji said while being traumatized.
“ALEC!! WAKE UP!! PLEASEE!! I BEG YOU. WAKE UP!! Pleasee... please..” Mei said while crying and healing Alec.
“I don’t know healing spells..” Seji said to himself.
“ALECCCCCCCC!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!” Seji shouted in pain. Tears were falling down his cheek.
“Look, Seji. He’s breathing. There’s still hope.” Mei said.
Seji clears his eyes with his arm and says, “take him to Doctor. I’ll take care of this.”
“You are coming with me.” Mei said.
Seji stood up and looked at dragon which still couldn’t stand properly.
Seji looks back at Mei and says, “Go fast.”
He was taken over by Rage and Anger.
“I’m coming right back.” Mei said and carried Alec to Town by flying.
His heart again skips a beat and Seji closed his eyes.
In his mind thoughts are roaming from someone’s memories. Seji goes deep in his mind.
“Who’s memories are these?” Seji asks himself in his mind.
“YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO US!”
“YOU POSSIBLY CAN’T BE MY CHILD!”
“KEEP TRYING UNTIL YOU CAN BREATHE FIRE PROPERLY!”
‘What is this...’ Seji asks himself.
The memories like these were roaming around Seji.
“These are my memories.” A voice came from seji's back.
The Dragon was standing behind him.
“Why are you here?” Seji asks and gets ready to fight.
“I’m not here to fight. I’m here to thank you, for relieving me from the pain. The experiment they casted on me made me like that. I was suffering in my head. My time is near, my consciousness is fading into your void.” The dragon said.
“Who are you? And what experiments? And what do you mean by fading into Void?” Seji asks being confused.
“This is my mere consciousness, I was dead already when you were fighting me. I tried to take over my body, but couldn’t. I tried to stop attacking, but couldn’t.” Dragon said.
“But, who are you?” Seji again asks.
“My name is Xavrarrorth. The previous Dragon king. I don’t seem to understand what’s happening right now much either. But, I’m being consumed by you. That’s all I can say... Seji? Was it. I guess this is end of me...” Dragon said and a big black circle below him starts consuming him. He starts to fade.
“Who is Delbrus? Where can I find him?” Seji asked.
“I don’t know. All I can say is, his left side of body has a big scar I gave him. And his left side of face have a scar, I could only manage to put a cut on his left side...” Dragon said.
“Wait!” Seji said.
“Hah, Remember my wrath towards him and beat him down.” Xavrarrorh said with a smile and fainted completely into the big circle.
The big circle closed up. The memories strike Seji. He sees the wrath of Dragon. The pain the dragon felt. Seji couldn't see the memories, but he could feel anger.
Seji opens his eyes, and realizes that the dragon have completely lost the control.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!” Seji shouted and black mana leaks out of his body. It’s not in circles or in control. Black mana is raging around Seji. It has formed a raging cloud of Black mana. Which goes up and down in flow.
Seji have lost it. Memories trigger his anger.
In his mind, Seji is seeing all his angry moments from past.
Inside Seji, Eyes in black mana open.
“Kill...” Seji mutters.
Outside, Eyes in black mana cloud open up as well, sharp teeth form in the darkness.
Seji jumps, his speed is even faster than last time. Bare Eyes can’t see him. Things around him start to be blown away.
“AAAAAA" Seji shouts as he jumps over the head of Dragon and brings it down.
“RAAAAAAAAAAAA" The dragon shouts.
Seji comes down from the dragon's head. The darkness cloud forms large hands.
Seji punches dragon upward with those hands! The dragon goes into air.
“AAAAAAA!!” Seji shouts as he flied towards the dragon and holds him from throat, Seji takes dragon into Air.
Seji turns the dragon to downside in middle of sky.
“Burn...Die...” Seji mutters.
As Seji muttered the dragon starts burning from black fire. It's barely visible in the black flames.
“Die...” Seji mutters and brings Dragon down in ground at high-speed.
Meanwhile Mei, Who has reached doctor to heal Alec first.
“Doctor heal him first. Please fast!” Mei said in crying.
Earth shakes up a bit.
“What is going on?” A villager said.
“That shaking... it must be Seji.” Mei said worriedly.
“This boy's condition is very bad. I need you help me with any healing spell you know. His bleeding have stopped, but we need more to heal the torn organs.” Doctor said.
“ok.” Mei said and started helping with her little healing spell.
While she was healing, she thought, “Blood healing isn’t possible for me to handle right now. If anything goes wrong, I’ll make it just worse. Even rune said I shouldn’t use it until mastered completely.”
Back at battleground:
“Die...” Seji mutters as dust from ground shakes up.
The dragon stopped screaming.
It was still burning up.
“Di-"
Seji loses his mana which was surrounding him and falls. He's almost unconscious.
It starts raining heavily.
Meanwhile, the help arrives.
An adventurer came flying down to Mei.
She had black hair, and she was wearing a Black Kimono with a Black Katana.
“Are you uh Meji?” She asked.
“No, my name is Mei.” Mei replied.
“Oh, you are from Elemental right? Hi, my name is Noriko Kana.” She said.
“Oh, Do you know healing Magic?” Arkal asked.
“A little, Almost none.” She replied.
“owh..”
“Then please go help my friend. His name is Seji, H-"
“Ahh yea! Seji! I mixed your two names. Anyway, where is he?” Noriko asked.
“He's on that mountain. Please go fast.” Mei said while pointing out at mountain.
“Alright, here take a potion, it’s strong. Give it to your friend down there. He must be Alec then, I guess.” Noriko said.
“Thank you! Where is Royal Army though?” Mei asked.
“They are coming.” Noriko said and headed towards Seji.
Noriko goes at a full speed towards Seji and sees him. The dragon was again getting healed.
Noriko picked up Seji and laid him near tree.
Noriko checked Seji's nerve and said, “He's alive.”
And went towards dragon.
Seji was half unconscious. He could listen to everything around him.
Seji opened his eyes and saw Noriko approaching dragon.
“Re-ina?...y..ou ca...me f-in..ally?” Seji said and went fully unconscious.
The Dragon still can’t stand up.
“I’ll finish this off.” Noriko said and put her right left on her katana while her body was leaning forward. A typical samurai stance.
Noriko's katana starts emitting wind.
“Deadly wind Art: Jiren.” Noriko enchanted and slashed dragon's neck, legs and arms. And then cut its chest from middle.
Those cuts were so fast that eyes can’t keep up with her speed. It was just in an instant. She cut his limbs and heart in perfect position.
The dragon finally loses consciousness.
“Now time to carry him.” Noriko said to herself and came to pick up Seji.
She picks him up, and float back to Mei.
“Seji! What happened to him!?” Mei asked.
“He’s alright. Just unconscious. Maybe he used a lot of mana?” Noriko said.
“Hopefully, what you say is right. I don’t want anything else to happen.” Mei said in sorrow.
“How’s your buddy Alec doing?” Noriko asked.
“He's same.” Mei said.
“Let’s head back. Look, Royal Army is here too.” Noriko said while pointing out to Royal Army.
“Mhm.” Mei said.
While the villagers got help from Royal Army, Noriko and other adventurers travel back to Royal Capital by borrowing a cart from Army.
“So, Why you people became adventurers?” Noriko asked Mei.
“Because Seji said so.” Mei replied while looking at Seji.
“You follow him everywhere?” Noriko asked.
“Yes. They are like a family to me now.” Mei replied.
“I see. But there must be a reason he became adventurer too right?” Noriko asked.
“I don’t know that. Only he knows that.” Mei said.
“Ah, what kind of person is he?” Noriko asked.
“I’m not sure how to explain it. He's good, but immoral sometimes? He’s dumb, but smart at the same time? He’s weak, but also strong at the same time? I’m not sure...” Mei said.
“Ahh I see I see. What about your Alec buddy?” Noriko asked.
“Well, he’s a much kinder soul than me and Seji. He's always nice to everyone.” Mei said.
“Oh! Is he your boyfriend then?” Noriko asked.
“No! Of course not!” Mei said while blushing.
“So, Seji is your boyfriend?” Noriko asked.
“No! Are you interested in him!?” Mei said.
“No, I just wanted to know more about new members. That’s all.” Noriko said.
“Shhhhhureee.” Mei replied.
“Let me inform Serina about a current situation.” Noriko said and brought crystal out-of-pocket.
“Mhm. What will happen to Arkal?” Mei asked.
“The kid in village? Royal Army will take care of him.” Noriko said.
Meanwhile the fight, In Royal Palace.
26th of Hippodromos. A day before, Seji's encounter with Dragon.
Prince Alfonzo arrived in Royal Palace.
The Princess of Galahaeim, Eleonora was also there to welcome.
Prince Alfonzo was wearing a black coat of old style, a white shirt below that and a brown pant. He was also wearing a hat and had his left eye covered.
The face had somewhat scarred. Going below from his left eye to chin.
She was wearing white dress. And her beauty was astonishing.
“Welcome to our Palace, Lord Alfonzo. I hope you will have a good time.” Eleonora said.
“Awe, My lady, please don’t call me Lord. I came as soon as I could because Lord Maele asked me to. And it’s a pleasure to be here.” Alfonzo said.
“The pleasure is our to have you here. Now, I had some work to finish. I’ll take my leave.” Eleonora said and went away.
“Welcome, Lord Alfonzo. I'm Mary, The Chief of Maids. May I guide you to your rooms. Would you like to have a single room?” Mary, The chief of maids of Royal Maids asked.
“Make it two rooms, I’m still not married to my beloved.” Alfonzo said with a smile while looking at Reina.
“Uh. Yes, please.” Reina said with a disgusted look.
“Sure. Please follow me.” Mary replied and started guiding them to their rooms
This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
They reach Reina's rooms. And Reina thanked Mary.
“You may ask me anything if needed.” Mary said to Reina and left.
“See you later, my love. Don’t bother with anything funny though.” Alfonzo said and followed Mary.
“Just go.” Reina said.
Mary noticed what Alfonzo said to Reina, But still kept walking.
“And this is your room Lord.” Mary said to Alfonzo.
“Awe, Thank you, dear. Where is king though? I would love to have a chat with him.” Alfonzo said.
“Lord Maele is busy currently. And Prince Eleftherios is currently out too. He will be returning by tonight.” Mary said.
“Have something gone wrong?” Alfonzo asked.
“Nothing much, The kingdom of Xangai, in East. Is politically unstable. And King Maele wanted it to be fixed, since the immigration from Xangai to North is affecting our country.” Mary said.
“Ahh, I see. Political stuff. If I remember correctly, Dyair was the King. Well, I can discuss this with King himself. You are dismissed for now, though I’d Like to visit the Royal capital thoroughly.” Alfonzo said.
“Sure, My Lord. I’ll arrange the cart as quick as I can.” Mary said and went.
Alfonzo went to Reina's room. She was standing and looking out of the balcony.
“You want to hang out my love?” Alfonzo said.
“Go away.” Reina said.
“Fine-Fine. Just marry me already. But, it's fine. I’ll wait when you break down and give up.” Alfonzo said to Reina.
“Tch.” Reina replied.
“Remember, don’t try to run. I’ll find you. And might even get your memories erased if you keep running.” Alfonzo said.
“You already made me helpless by taking my magic. I can't run away now.” Reina said in anger.
“That’s better. But, if you don’t want him in your memory I can erase either way.” Alfonzo said.
“Just go.” Reina said.
“Ahahaha!” Alfonzo laughed and went away.
Alfonzo goes down to ride in cart and tour the city.
“I hope you are alright. Seji.” Reina said to herself and kept standing on balcony.
It’s nighttime.
“My lady, Dinner is ready. Please come down. Prince have also returned. And King is also there now.” Mary said.
“For sure. Reina replied and went down.
The were sitting on the large dining table.
“How do you like my kingdom? Prince Alfonzo?” King Maele said.
“Ahh, so far I have enjoyed your kingdom, Lord Maele.” Prince Alfonzo said.
Present King Maele Von Ruanaid was the current ruler of Galahaeim.
“I’m happy to hear that Price Alfonzo.” The king replied.
“Ahahah! Please visit our kingdom too sometime your highness.” Alfonzo said.
Reina comes down, and bows to king and sits on the table.
Prince Eleftherios looks at Reina and blushes.
Princess Eleonora kicks Eleftherios's leg.
“Huh!?” Eleftherios said.
“Shh" Eleonora said.
“Sure, is she Princess of Niuinaire? I mean your sister?” King asked.
“You are mistaken, your highness. She’s my future wife. Though, I do have a younger brother.” Alfonzo said.
“O-h!?! I see... and I though, you could become my Son in law. And she could be my daughter-in-law.” King said.
“Awe, such a wrong timing only if I was a week early here, I would have loved to marry Princess Eleonora.” Alfonzo said.
Eleftherios looks shocked.
Eleftherios though in his mind, “He’s lucky bastard.”
“Ah, Prince Alfonzo, that makes me unhappy ahahah. But can I ask one last question before we eat?” King asked Alfonzo.
“Sure, Your highness.” Alfonzo replied.
“How is King Leofric? I mean your father." King asked with a little stutter. He was nervous asking.
“Is that it? I though something else, he’s doing good actually.” Alfonzo replied.
“Actually, that’s not the question I wanted to ask. I may sound dumb, but”
“but?” Alfonzo said.
“But, have you heard of someone who’s saying they are from different world?” King asked.
Previously, Master Zenon came to meet with king. Master Zenon asked king, if he knew about some people saying that they were from different world. Master Zenon filled in The king and told him the whole story. King replied positively and said that he would try to find out anything.
Reina's face lit up with happiness.
Alfonzo looks at Reina with a nervous face. He's worried that she might speak!
Alfonzo in his mind thinks, “if she spoke, it will be tough to handle. And if she told them, it might even get worse. I need to do something.”
“I-" Reina was just speaking that she got unconscious on the dinning table.
“Oh no! Reina!” Alfonzo said.
“What happened!?” King said in shock.
“Is she alright?” Eleftherios said while standing up.
“Oh my...” Eleonora said.
“My lord, she’s suffering from a disease, which makes her lose consciousness much often. I apologize, but I’ll take her to room. Please get our food there.” Alfonzo said and took Reina to her room.
“Maids! Get their share of food in their room.” King ordered.
“That could have ruined it all. But, how king knows about it.” Alfonzo said to himself and threw Reina on bed. And it woke her up.
“What just happened there!?” Reina said while waking up.
“You almost ruined it. But, Time stopping never fails me.” Alfonzo said.
“heh- hehehe! Well someone also has entered this world with me. Now, there’s a high chance it will be Seji.” Reina said in joy.
Alfonzo tried to attack Reina, but stops.
“Attack me, so, they can know how I got the injury.” Reina said.
“Tch.” Alfonzo said and backed off.
“Ahahahaha! I have a brilliant idea instead.” Alfonzo said.
Maids knock door and came in, they place food. And left the room.
"I don’t know how king got to know someone has come from another world or not, but listen, you are mine, want to know some cool news? There’s a guy named Sejiyoi Midaro. He’s in this world.-
The wind blows. The silence came and Alfonzo told Reina everything.
He said much more to Reina. Telling her the truth, who he actually is and much more than that.
Reina was shocked from listening to that.
NEXT MORNING.
The guild masters of top guilds were here in Castle.
In the senate.
The king was sitting on his throne. The children of King weren’t present there.
On the right side
The guild maters were sitting.
Master Ruby Scarlet from Scarlet Justice, Endymonium From Shadow Field, Ayrdyss Impetus from Inferno, Prunia Gelus from The Blue Lust and Master Zenon From The Elemental.
And on the left side, all the administrators of Galahaeim kingdom.
Military general and commanders of different troops who handle different directions.
Astolis The Militiary General and An advisor to king. Four commanders of Directions fall under his command.
Cythero - The South commander.
Losico - The North commander.
Amades – The East commander.
Phrisa – The West commander.
“Where to start?” Alfonzo asked.
“Astolis, Go ahead.” King ordered Astolis.
“Yes, My lord.” Astolis said and bowed.
“The Kingdom of Niuinaire is at great progress in its technology, Rumors say that Niuinaire is using advanced technology. Such as, use of carts without horses or magic. The kingdom of Galaheim would like to deepen our old bond even further by the trade of items like that.” Astolis explained.
“Ah, sure. As the representative of Kingdom of Niuinaire, I agree to that and will present the models of those carts soon.” Alfonzo said.
“The border relations between Niuinaire and Galahaeim also needs to get better.” Astolis said.
While the senate was progressing on points, Prince Eleftherios went in Reina's room.
“Princess? Why are you standing here?” Prince asked Reina.
“Oh, Prince Elef-uh whatever. I -"
“Eleftherios.”
“Yea that. I was just thinking. Please don’t mind me. Anyway, what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be in meeting?” Reina asked.
“Well, I didn’t want to be there. Instead, I wanted to be see you.” Prince said.
“Huh?! Dude, I’m already fu- *cough-cough* I apologize. I mean Prince, I’m already in relationship.” Reina said.
“Oh well, I really feel like I fell in love with you when I saw you, please run away with me.” Prince said.
“No point in that, he will find us. And it won’t be good for your country. I’m pretty sure your father don’t want to fight over women.” Reina said with a sorrow.
In Eleftherios mind, “Awe, she's so cute. I really need to marry her.”
Eleftherios asked, “So that means I’m rejected?”
“Yea, you are rejected and now f*cough* I’m sorry I meant I can’t be with your Prince.” Reina said.
“I see. I apologize. You are indeed a perfect woman.”
Eleftherios thinks, “what a perfect woman she is, she’s worried about our kingdom even though she’s from an old enemy’s side.”
“What a weird prince. Does he think I’m a slut or something? Disgusting idiot.” Reina said to herself.
“*sigh*, I wonder when can I get out of this prison. I hope Seji will find me soon. It's been seven days, that dumdum is taking long.” Reina said to herself.
Meanwhile in senate.
“So those were all issues. Which have been clarified. Let’s go for feast now.” King said.
“Wait, Your highness. I want to ask something from Prince Alfonzo.” Master Zenon said.
“Prince Alfonzo, Has you heard about adventurers or people saying that they are from a different world?” Master Zenon asked.
“None, I mean I do have seen lunatics saying that, but I guess that means no.” Alfonzo said.
“I see. Thank you, Lord.” Master Zenon said.
“Lord Maele asked me the same question last night, but due to circumstances I couldn’t answer. And I think you probably shouldn’t believe in them either.” Alfonzo said.
“No, I have confirmed the person isn’t saying lies or under possession.” Master Zenon said.
“Can you call him or her here?” Alfonzo said. He was worried inside.
“No, I’m afraid I can’t. He’s out on questing currently.” Master Zenon said.
“I see.” Alfonzo replied.
“Oh come on, Zenon. You don’t believe that crap do you?” Prunia, the master of Blue Lust said.
“Watch your words, Master Prunia. You under hostility of your highness.” Ruby scarlet master of Scarlet Justice said.
“Oh come on, my dear Ruby. You also don’t believe him. Do you?” Prunia asked.
“No, I don’t. But, that doesn’t mean you can use such vulgar words.” Ruby said.
“I didn’t ask for your opinions in first place though. Prunia and Ruby.” Zenon said.
“Tch.” Prunia said.
“Stop being childish.” Ayrdyss master of Inferno said.
“I apologize.” Ruby said.
“The meeting is finished, Later.” Endymonium from Shadow Field said and stood up to leave.
“You can’t just leave, The meeting haven’t finished yet.” Amades said.
“Maybe getting earwax out of your ears would help you. Lord already said that we should eat food. And I didn’t come to eat food. So, I’m leaving. Try to stay awake next time during meeting.” Endymonium said and left.
“He’s the one who was sleeping and didn’t spoke a word the whole time though.” Amades said.
“He didn’t spoke, but you were sleeping.” Astolis said.
Phrisa cracked up a little.
“The meeting is done.” King said, and everyone went out of room except Zenon.
“Hey Maele. Why was he covering his left eye?” Zenon asked king.
“I've told you call me king when I’m in Castle.” King said in whimper.
“Okay, but why you think?” Zenon asked.
“Who knows, I’m seeing him for first time.” King said.
“Something is fishy about him. He said you asked him last night, what did he mean?” Zenon asked.
“I did ask him last night about that. But, his future wife collapsed. He said she’s suffering from heart disease.” King said.
“Oh then Eleonora isn’t getting married?” Zenon asked.
“No, he said that if he had been called a week before last night, he might have married, but he found her.” King said.
“Her? You mean His future Wife? Who’s she?” Zenon asked.
“You ask too many questions, but the young lady was absolutely beautiful. Her name was uh-"
There’s a knock on door.
“My lord, I apologize. But, there's been an emergency. A dragon has gone mad in village Verona. And high casualties have been registered. Princess Eleonora was reported by Serina from the Elemental.” Mary said.
“What the... that’s where Seji went! And if Serina was contacted that means it was seji!?!”
“Seji? That same young man from another world?” King asked.
“Yes.” Zenon replied worriedly.
“Oh my!” King said.
“Wait, there is more. I wasn’t done. This happened around an hour ago. And we were contacted again by the adventurer who went to help them. Princess Eleonora had deployed Royal forces with them, they should be reaching here at anytime.” Mary said.
“I still need to go see. Later king.” Zenon said and rushed outside of castle.
Reina sees Zenon rushing out of Castle.
“Your food, my lady.” Maid said while bringing food to Reina.
“Please leave it here.” Reina said to Maid. Maid put the food on table and left the room.
While Seji and other return in a cart.
“Oh, we reached Royal capital.” Noriko said.
“Alec and Seji are still unconscious. Alec is in bad health.” Mei said.
“Don’t worry, he will be fine. His bleeding is stopped and his organs are healed. Just muscles are left.” Noriko said.
“Mhm.” Mei said.
Master Zenon came running towards cart.
“What’s wrong with them?” Master Zenon asked.
“Alec is in much more danger. Seji is just unconscious.” Mei said.
“I told you people to run if anything goes wrong! Let’s get them to Guild house fast. Have you informed Serina to get a doctor?” Zenon asked
“I have.” Noriko replied.
“Let me get Alec quick.” Zenon said and took Alec with him and Flew to guild house.
“Okay.” Mei said.
In a minute, They reach guild house.
“Let’s take him upstairs.” Noriko said.
“I can handle from here, thank you for the help. Miss Noriko.” Mei said
“It’s fine. Let me help.” Noriko said and helped to pick up Seji.
“Thank you for the help.” Mei said.
“You don’t need to thank me. You are all buddies.” Noriko said.
“Mhm.” Mei said, and they went inside guild.
Ariel, Reiz , Egan, Rune, Sharon and Grim came running at them.
“Is he alright?” Ariel asked.
“Yes, just unconscious.” Mei replied.
“Let us take him up, you people get side.” Noriko said.
“Okay.” Ariel said, and everyone got side.
They take Seji upstairs. Inside room, Master Zenon, Serina, Emilia were standing.
They lay Seji on the bed beside Alec was being treated.
“So, uh how is he?” Mei asked about Alec.
“Good thing, the blood was stopped immediately. And internal organs were healed.” The doctor said.
“Doctor can you check on Seji?” Mei asked.
“Wait, Let Alec get healed.” Master said.
“Yeah, sure.” Doctor said.
“Don’t worry, brother will be fine.” Emilia said to Mei.
“Emilia. Mhm.” Mei said.
After a while, Alec is finish getting treated.
Doctor sits near Seji and does a check up.
He puts his hand on Seji’s mind and checks.
A light appears from his hand and then disappears.
“He’s alright. Just a little physical healing, and he will be fine. But, I can’t say same about his mental conditions.” Doctor said.
“Why's that doctor?” Mei asked.
“He seems to be lost in thoughts and dreams.” Doctor said.
“He will wake up though right?” Mei asked.
“Yeah, he will. But, might take a day or two.” Doctor said.
“And what about Alec?” Mei asked.
“He’s different. Unlike Seji, Alec’s mind is empty for now. I’m not sure when he will wake up, or even if he will wake up. He’s in deep unconsciousness.” Doctor said.
“Oh..” Mei said in sorrow.
“Isn't there any way?” Master Zenon asked.
“Just take care of him, and he will wake up eventually, Be it days, weeks or months. Good thing is, it wasn’t on head. So, he will recover for sure. How much time will it take? I’m not sure.” Doctor said.
“I see.” Master Zenon said.
“I’ll go now.” Doctor said.
“Serina, Pay them their fee please. We come down in a while.” Master Zenon said to Serina.
“Okay..” Serina said and went downstairs.
“It’s alright, they will be fine. Meanwhile, they wake up, why don’t you practice magic? And surprise them with it?” Master asked Mei.
“I think that’s better idea. But, tomorrow I guess.” Mei replied.
“As you say, my dear.” Master Zenon said.
“Yes, Master.” Mei replied.
While in Royal Palace.
“We are leaving tomorrow.” Alfonzo said to Reina.
“How is Seji? Tell me truth?” Reina asked.
“I don’t know, should be fine." Alfonzo said.
“Something is wrong. I feel it.” Reina said.
“Pointless. Such pointless thing? Ahahaha what are you now? A fortune-teller?” Alfonzo asked.
“Give me a sword, and I’ll show you.” Reina said.
“You already lost back then. Or did you forgot?” Alfonzo asked.
