Chapter 63– Spark of War
As the Red Spirit disappeared, I carried Lina on my back and approached Halvard…
Nelus: What will you do?
Halvard: If what my wife said was true then all this time… hahh… I have no choice but to follow her but I won’t take my life, I’ll wait for my time to come. Even if we are immortal, one day I too will wish for death if there are no reasons for me to stay then I will join her but for now I still have some things left to do…
Nelus: I see… then what is your current purpose?
Halvard: My sons… Chyde and Roy are still too young to take over my rule and Cheil will one day be endangered so until she can protect herself, I will stay here.
Halvard said with a solemn expression as he stared at the ground with eyes filled with thoughts of things to come. Lina then looks at me confusedly as I then patted her head.
Lina: Uncle?
Nelus: Are you scared when those monsters attacked you?
Lina shook hear head and smiled innocently as she said.
Lina: No!
Nelus: Why is that?
Lina: It because uncle will save me!! Ehe.
Halvard: Ahahahah!! Look like you too have someone you need to protect!
Nelus nodded and looks towards a certain direction as someone approaches…
Frei: Lord Nelus it seems we have successfully cleaned up after all those monsters!
Frei said as Fala was clinging to Frei’s arm tightly with a flushed face while Frei was smiling wryly.
Lina: Uncle Frei! Aunt Fala!
Fala: Phew… good to see little Lina is okay…
???: We too have finished up…
A voice was heard as flames fluttered in the air… it was Tania and the others…
Altan: Papa!! Lin!
Lina: Alt!!
Altan said as he hugs Nelus as Nelus gently pats his head.
Terul: Hahh… so tired… what is up with that sudden attack… it nearly gave me a heart attack…
Altan: Did you know? Terul was veeerryy cool!! Especially she said she protect me! Ehehehe.
Altan said while smiling with an extremely happy face which made Terul flustered as she looks away in embarrassement.
Terul: I am yours now so of course I will protect you…
Terul murmured as someone with metallic wings descended from the sky. I had felt his presence earlier inside the palace so I focused on protecting Lina at that time.
Cellux: Good thing I sensed the large amount of ominous mana from the cave going near Uire so I immediately come over to see what was happening, I am glad I did…
Ciall: What are those things… I can somehow get the feeling that their presence was quite familiar… geho!
Ciall said as he spits out a mouthful of blood as Zala, who came with them, had a worried expression and said…
Zala: Father! Your injured you should take a rest!
Ciall: I’m sturdier than you think… geho!
Zala: Father!?
Ciall: At least I protected your mother! Even with injuries like this I will stand tall!
Ciall said as he glances at his father to see if he was impressed.
Cellux: That’s my boy!
Nelus: Cellux please watch over them while I’m gone, I need to get back to the academy…
Cellux: Understood my Lord!
I then used my spatial magic to fly over there as fast I can and saw… it seems the Paralyze Zone wore of and became a slaughter… Andros with his never-ending bulging muscles incapacitates multiple of Daes while Rezald kept on using his magic as he pants heavily. The others too are keeping a good job in defeating the Daes as suddenly… an explosion was heard and it came from inside the building…
Rezald: What!?
Raldine: I’ll go check!!
I look around and saw that only beings of light were fighting… I have a feeling…
Caeka: It’s caused by one of those monsters!
All of them stared at Caeka, dumbfounded as Andros said…
Andros: That’s not possible… if they have gotten in then I would’ve sensed them…
I then decided to help using Gale Storm and Lighting Branch to kill the remaining hundred. Wind started gathering as the clouds went dark, a massive wind was felt swirling around us as it suddenly contracts and expands as if a suction then blows all of them away around us. Now that they are far away from Andros and the others, lightning spread out from my palm directed towards one Dae as it spreads like a wildfire in a dry forest killing them off.
We then entered the building as all of them were looking at us smirking.
Andros: May I ask why didn’t you help?
Kawt: This is your problem so we beings of darkness don’t need to bother with your internal strife, more importantly…
Kawt smirked as he looks around him coldly and said.
Kawt: Getting our Nox academy students in such danger is unforgivable!
???: Yeah!
???: What is up with you beings of divinity bringing danger to us Nox students!!
???: I can’t believe this… principal Andros and the others protected us and this was all the thanks they get!?
This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it
???: Shut up! It’s you beings of divinity’s fault for not trying hard enough in protecting us, you were lucky that no one died!
Rezald: (I see…)
Rezald thought that something peculiar was happening, it was as if those of Noc Academy were purposely doing this as it seems it wasn’t just Rezald who noticed this. The audience turned in a riot as Andros shouted in a booming voice.
Andros: Quiet!
Everyone fell silent as they stop arguing and listen intently.
Andros: Will you grant us forgiveness?
Caeka: Principal!?
Kawt: I don’t know… hmm… then as apology we can take some students from Lux academy as well as that teacher… Raldine was it?
Raldine: No!!
Kawt said with lust in his eyes as Raldine shuddered. Andros then said.
Andros: If that is the only way to get your forgiveness then we will decline.
Kawt: Hahahah!! Then we will see you soon. Everyone lets go back!
Kawt said as they quickly left the building as Andros was having a very weary expression…
Raldine: I’m sorry…
Andros: What are you sorry about?
Raldine: If it weren’t for me rejecting, we would’ve…
Andros: Hahaha!! They will try and try to get us to go to war no matter what so it will come eventually also you and the students are a big part of Lux Academy as well as like that of a family so of course I would decline his offer!
Raldine: Principal…
Anndros then gave her a hearty smile as he then had a menacing expression with and intense smile on his face and shouted…
Andros: If time comes that we will go to war then let us show them a hell worse than the underworld!!
Everyone cheered, even they have expected that war cannot be avoided so what is the difference to take it early? Everyone had a determined expression on their faces especially my students.
Andros: Nelus, can I ask a request?
Nelus: What is it?
Andros: Now that it has come to this will you also teach the other classes only if you have time? I ask this to you too Rezald.
Rezald: No problem! Right Bro Nelus?
Nelus: Sure… and I have a better idea…
I then whispered to Andros as a smile floated in his face and announced…
Andros: Those from Nelus class will aid everyone to become strong just in case war will break out! They will temporarily be a student-teacher! Will you accept?
Welg: It is an honor! Right everyone?
Welg said as he looks at the others as they nodded in approval.
Andros: Then it’s settled!!
Afterwards we cleaned up all of the ashes that the Dae’s left behind as it seems whenever they would get killed, their bodies will completely become unstable and turned to dust because of the energy within them. Afterwards me and Rezald headed back to Uire and once we got there Rezald was surprised as he let out his mana weapon.
Rezald: What are you doing here!?
Halvard: Do not worry I am not your enemy.
Rezald: Why would I believe you?
Nelus: You can trust him.
Rezald: Why Bro Nelus?
Nelus: He was being manipulated by Dae all this time as he was looking for some way to revive his wife.
Rezald: I see…
Rezald said as he looks at Halvard as if symphatizing with him as he too once felt the lost of someone you deeply love.
Halvard: Nelus come with me.
Rezald: I’ll come with you!
Halvard: So be it.
We then decided to follow Halvard while heading towards their city. Afterwards we both entered the castle with him and went further and deeper into its depths as an ominous door was opened… it was dark, very dark… I then used Pyro Flame to light the cave up as Rezald had a very shocked face. There was a chair with someone sitting on it, someone quite familiar… it was Dae.
Dae: Oh? You found out… my main body.
Halvard: It’s over Dae.
Dae: No stop!!
Dae shouted in desperation as Halvard hesitates while wielding his sword to kill Dae. Dae smirked while covering his mouth and said… Father don’t kill... Suddenly… Dae felt something cold pass by his body as blood gushed out as Dae’s body fell down to the floor as if a puppet whose string were cut.
Halvard: It is over…
Halvard said as he had a pained expression on his face, it seems Dae’s death has affected him more than he thought as he walks away avoiding from looking at Dae’s corpse.
On ???’s side.
??? Hahahaha!!! This is so good! They all thought I am dead… I fooled them… pffft!!
???: Dae you shouldn’t be so arrogant, the clones from the experiment didn’t even managed to kill even one of them.
Dae: Lord Riseos, at least we managed to create a reason for war!
Riseos: Oh? So you’re telling me to disregard your failures?
Dae trembled as the intense pressure coming from Riseos was enough to tear his body apart.
Riseos: I don’t need you anymore.
Dae: Waaaiii…
Riseos then cuts Dae’s neck as his head slowly falls off his head.
Riseos: We have what we need, the experiments using your body were indeed successful and it is time for me to announce the coming of war. Finally, the time has come for us to have the chance to rule over all.
