We ended up discussing the third generation of magitek knights for a good half an hour. By that time, I was starting to feel that perhaps I had stayed for too long, thus I gave an excuse to retire to my bedroom.
Andassis the Seventh was a little surprised, but upon checking a nearby clock, he nodded and gave me leave to retire.
As promised, Missiger offered to lead me back to my quarters. But upon further consideration, I rejected her offer.
I am a man with something to prove. Thats right. With my own strength, I will chart the unknown, and conquer my dismal sense of direction. I will show the world that Im just a little bad with roads, not horribly so And I can just call out for Doris for help -shes still waiting for me to show her the movie, after all.
With that settled, I bade my farewell to a reluctant king, and left on my grand adventure back home Its not really that grand, but it is a trial for me
Or so I thought
Little brother, brace yourself, we are about to be teleported.
Just as I turned the corner, Fertinier somber voice chimed in my head.
Teleportation? Wait, whats going on?
This was the palace of Andassis. And there was no one around me right now. To teleport me, there had to be some mana traces, traces which the court mages should have noticed. Not to mention the fact that the palace was a special zone where teleportation wasnt allowed.
It has to do with Ancarin and Regine Theres no time to explain, hand over your body for now!
Ancarin and Regine?
The mention of the girls immediately jolted me. I hurriedly asked her
Fertinier, what do you mean this has to do with Ancarin and Regine?
You will know when we get there, just hand over your body first. Im about to cast a spell.
There wasnt any hint of her usual levity in her words -that was just how urgent the situation was right now.
I handed over control without any further questions. She immediately channeled the mana within me towards the Chaos Crystal, carving out a hasty dimensional array.Alll latest novels at .com
One soldier, one feather not a single feather too many.
There was no screaming, no yelling, just silence as the razor-sharp projectile pierced through each of their skulls.
Thud thud thud
The soldiers crumpled to the floor in perfect unison. Having completed their duty, the feathers dissipated into thin air.
That felt good but just twelve of them isnt enough
Thats right, theres still a number of them outside, and they dont seem that strong.
Little brother, I know youre not in the best of moods right now, but I have to collect the souls first
And done Okay, we can go now. Two seconds later, Fertinier expressed that she was done.
You greedy she-devil, Im sure that little amount of souls isnt even enough to satisfy you. Dont worry, I will remedy that right away.
Little brother, are you sure you are all right? Youre unusually bloodthirsty right now.
I ignored her, unfurling my purple wings on purpose before stepping out of the building.
Right outside the Demoness Abode was a whole battalion of soldiers squaring off the villagers, of whom a few were familiar faces.
Most familiar amongst them was a brawny man, roughly thirty years of age, buzz cut, dressed in tattered leather armor and armed with a hunters bow and sword.
Is that Dioh? Bah, if they get in my way, they will die as well.
Someones coming out!
One of the villagers immediately spotted me from his vantage point and yelled.
A middle-aged, bearded man, who was obviously the leader of the soldiers- based on his golden armoring- turned towards me and was taken aback. However, he recovered seconds later and asked in a gruff voice, A survivor who are you? Why have you come out of that building?
