As the forces of humanity slowly disappeared from my sight, I flew towards the location of the king of the kingdom of Erela. I also saw my people about to et them.
The army of this kingdom was so massive that the entirety of my army seed really small compared to them. I also saw a phoenix flying in the direction where I was about to go.
That was hrad and he was riding the firebird with Karoon.
And based on Karoon's wide smile while waving her hand at , I could clearly tell that she was really enjoying her ride.
I landed on the ground between the forces of the kingdom of Erela and my people. And unlike before, I didn't do a superhero landing, just a normal one.
Man! I can still feel the pain in my knee! It's fucking cool to look at, but it's fucking painful to perform! I had to use healing magic just to never shout due to the intense pain that struck the mont I landed! Thankfully, I managed to not put myself in that situation! It would have been a very awkward situation if I shouted like a bitch right in front of those people.
As I landed on the ground, what greeted was the eyes of the entire army darted at , they were all looking at like I was so kind of freak show!
I deactivated my armor and smiled at them. "What's up with the wary faces?" I shrugged.
The next thing I knew, Leo was already standing beside while expressing his usual easygoing smile.
I narrowed my eyes as I stared at his arms.
Hmm, I think he needs to wash his hands.
On the other hand, a phoenix landed next to and two people jumped out of it.
"Ehh! It's over? It's quite fun, let's do it again soti!"
hrad just chuckled.
Karoon stood beside and wandered her enthusiastic eyes throughout the massive army in front of us. "Uhh... There are a lot of beautiful and handso people here."
I shifted my gaze to Karoon and smiled.
However, my attention was instantly taken when I heard soone clear his throat. As I shifted my eyes back, standing in front of was the king of the kingdom of Erela. He was staring directly at while expressing a very serious face. On the other hand, standing next to him was a young man who had an unbelievable resemblance to Leal.
Man, if Leal was a little bit taller and had long hair, this is what he looks like! Both of them don't look like their father though!
Both of them walked forward, with such elegance with their every step. As they stopped, I noticed sothing on the other person's hands. He was wearing a prosthetic right hand, a black tallic hand.
"Warlord Casimir. I, the king of the kingdom of Erela, am grateful for your aid. And due to the situation we had earlier, I did not have a chance to properly introduce myself." King Asmit raised his hand.
All at once, all the warriors of the kingdom of Erela bowed their heads in synchronization and with such grace that genuinely put in great awe.
"The na is Asmit Durmada, the king of the elven kingdom of Erela. And as the very first nation who has ford an alliance with us, this is the formal proclamation of our alliance." He handed his hand to . "I will confess that I have a premonition that I will regret this, having an alliance with a nation that is not part of our great lineage... But I am a man of my words, I am honorable and will never back down. I don't know what your plan is, but what matters most to is... you saved my people while we were on the brink of a devastating defeat, and that's more than enough reason for to see you as my equal, at least until you have proven wrong... Until then, I'll observe your every action and you should expect to not hesitate to fight you once proven that you don't deserve my cooperation. Is that fine to you, Tyrannical Warlord?"
Man, doesn't look like him, but Leal sounds like him! The apple really doesn't fall far from the tree, doesn't it?
"Very well." I took his hand and I felt him squishing my hand a little harder than before. Just like how sales agents shake hands with people. I smiled at him. "I'm looking forward to the good relationship we will have in the near future, King Asmit Durmada."
As I took back my hand, the person standing next to him put his tallic hand on his chest and pointed his still reluctant eyes at . His face was full of seriousness. "Greetings, Warlord Casimir. Just like my father said, you have our deepest gratitude for aiding us in this decisive battle. The na is Alric Durmada, the first prince of the kingdom of Erela."
Ah... Leal's eldest brother!
I don't think he is friendly. I an, what do I expect? Even Leal doesn't look friendly at all. The snobby feature runs in the family, I guess?
King Asmit put his hand on Prince Alric's shoulder and smiled. "The crown prince of the kingdom of Erela."
However, Prince Alric did not even change his expression. He just stared at with his never-changing wary eyes.
I can pretty much tell that he has zero trust in and just playing along with his father, I don't need to be a psych to see it.
Do I really look that suspicious? I'm not planning to conquer your kingdom, Buddy. Don't worry!
Suddenly, all the eyes around the place were withdrawn at and darted to the person that just arrived.
"Your Majesty." Leal walked past while expressing a face of relief while staring at King Asmit.
King Asmit's eyes imdiately widened. "Leal."
A wave of synchronized gasp resonated throughout the area, not only for Leal but also for the person standing beside him. Kuro bowed her head at King Asmit and he responded by nodding at her.
"It's Cahira!"
"It really is her!"
"I thought she's already dead?"
"How co such a curse is still alive?"
"The plague of Erela decided to co back!"
Are they calling Kuro... Cahira?
If I'm gonna be honest, Cahira is a pretty cool na.
Ignoring the talks of the people around, Leal knelt before King Asmit while his hand was on his chest. He looked down. "I am delighted to finally see you again, Your Majesty."
However, King Asmit's face turned serious as he stared at Leal kneeling on the ground. "Stand up, Prince Leal Durmada."
Leal looked up and paused for a few seconds before repeatedly nodding. He stood up. "The na is Leal Bertrand, Your Majesty."
King Asmit shook his head. "It doesn't matter. Both of them are beautiful last nas." And wrapped Leal in his arms. He tapped Leal's back. "I have missed you, My son."
"Even I... I have missed you as well... Your-"
"Father... I am your father, nothing else."
"Father."
Both of them laughed.
Yep, what a heartwarming reunion.
As they released each other, Kuro walked in while ignoring the sharp glares of the majority of the people on the side of the elven people. I could clearly see them trying to hide the disdains in their faces.
Hmm.
Kuro bowed her head at King Asmit. "Greetings, King Asmit."
Before answering Kuro, King Asmit stared at Prince Alric first and aningfully smiled before pointing his eyes towards Kuro. He raised his hands. "I am extrely delighted to see you are fine too. I heard that you are no longer using your old na. Say your chosen na for us to know."
Kuro raised her head. "You may call , Kuro. One of the mbers of the main security personnel of the town of Agrona. And one of the shadows of our ruler, Warlord Casimir himself."
Oy! Oy! What's up with that Warlord thing? I don't rember agreeing with that title!
"Kuro." King Asmit repeatedly nodded. "Very well. Your new na is beautiful, fitting for such a person like you... a glorious elf."
Upon hearing the words that King Asmit declared openly, whispers could be heard coming from the massive army in front of us, they were showing a negative reaction to what had just been announced. However, they imdiately hide their disdainful faces upon seeing staring at them.
I'm starting to understand the situation here.
King Asmit shifted his gaze at . "With that said, Warlord Casimir."
I raised my index finger. "Ju- just Casimir."
He just ignored what I just said and turned his back on . "People of the kingdom of Erela. This battle is over for now, and thanks to the aid from the people of the town of Agrona, led by their ruler, Warlord Casimir, we have prevailed." He raised his hands. "To applaud their presence, let's welco them and show them how our great Kingdom receives our visitors that we deed as equal with us."
All at once, the roaring scream of the warriors of Erela resonated throughout the area as the massive army was cut in half to give us the way towards the capital. All of them moved with such gracefulness that it made think that they just love showing off how synchronized they were.
King Asmit faced us and expressed a very proud smile. "People of the town Agrona. Welco to our great kingdom."
