While I was talking with the three monarchs in the eting room, a man appeared at the door, politely asking for permission to step in.
He was big and burly, with strong arms that made it seem like he would have trouble walking through the entrance.
King Dente gave a friendly wave at the man, inviting him in, but he stood before before he approached his own king.
"You must be Ichiro..." he said.
"That’s , yeah..." I replied, sowhat nervous.
However, the man bowed his head and knelt down with his fist on the ground.
"I have no words to thank you for what you have done for us..." he said, turning my nervousness to embarrassnt as I asked the man to stand up.
He introduced himself as the Terra Titan, who had all of his six hearts fused together while I was sleeping to bring him back to life.
The Terra Titan had to split himself up into different mindless monsters after Zagor threatened him, holding the lives of the beastkin as his bargaining chip.
Now that I was able to talk to the real person behind the monster, I felt pretty glad that we decided to save the hearts of the titans and not kill them outright when we first t them.
Still, it felt strange to call the man "Terra Titan," so I asked what his first na used to be.
Acalan was the sa as not many people referred to him by na. Instead, they just called him The Phoenix. However, I thought that was a bit awkward, so I preferred to call them by the nas that were given to them on their first contract.
"Brockey..." the Terra Titan replied.
’Brockey? That’s a pretty cute na for a man that looks this big...’ I thought, finding his na a bit funny.
After talking a bit longer with the monarchs and Brockey, I asked King Leon if he had sent any ssages to the Sephyr Kingdom, explaining that my voice crystal connected to lina’s had broken during the fight.
The king said that he had sent two letters, one by normal ans and the other using the ghost owl artifact that we retrieved from the bandits at the Empire, which they used to send secret ssages to each other.
However, he hadn’t received a response, so there was no way for him to know if the people in the kingdom had received the good news.
His answer left a little disappointed since I just wanted to talk to lina, but it was better than nothing.
After talking a bit more with the monarchs and Brockey, I made my way out of the castle with my companions and Gina following behind.
While we were walking down the main road, I noticed how most of the debris that was left from the destruction of the war had been cleared off the streets, and the beastkins were working on repairing their hos.
Even though it seed like a lot of work for them, the beastkin looked happy, which was the complete opposite of how they looked with the chains around their necks while carrying tons of starstone.
Deeper into the main road, we found ourselves before a massive building that was half destroyed and had dozens of beastkins working on it to repair the holes in the wall and ceiling.
Gina told that it was the library, and while I was sleeping, she helped the workers recover so books that had been damaged during the battle.
I felt a bit curious, so I decided to go inside while they were still working on it, asking Vespera to lend a hand to the workers who seed to be in a rush to fix the ceiling to protect the books from rain.
As my companion helped them out, I walked around the ssy library to take a look at the books that were still standing when I felt a familiar sensation coming from one book hidden at the top of a bookcase.
The book was Alejandro’s journal, and it was the oldest book I had seen in this world by a mile. In fact, it was kind of impressive that the book was still holding itself together by how old and feeble it looked.
I carefully flipped the pages so as not to rip them mistakenly and started reading what the founder of Kalusia had to say back then.
The book was in English, so my suspicions of Alejandro being a reincarnated person like were pretty much confird. However, I could tell that English wasn’t his first language.
So of the paragraphs he wrote were a bit hard to understand, and others were straight-up written in Spanish, making feel lucky that I lived in a Hispanic country with my wife in my past life for so ti.
My Spanish wasn’t the best, but it was enough for to understand what Alejandro had written in his journal.
In it, Alejandro said that he was originally from South Arica and arrived in this world after dying in an accident.
When he arrived, he said that he found himself in a very primitive land where people with animal features lived. However, this humanoid race was at war with each other as they were split into different clans.
Alejandro was the one that put a stop to their fighting and founded the nation of Kalusia, where the beastkins learned to work with each other and led peaceful lives for a long ti.
He never wanted to be the king of any country, so he chose the family that he considered the most fit to beco rulers and gave them his aid in making their nation prosper.
Acalan and Brockey were ntioned in the journal, too, making wonder how old they were at that ti.
I could tell that Alejandro’s ti in this world had been a very long ti ago. When I read about Kyoko and Giuseppe, it was easy to tell that certain events in this world had already happened by the ti they arrived.
I knew that Kyoko had been around here at least two hundred years before , and I estimated Giuseppe to have co here four or five hundred years ago.
However, the way Alejandro talked about the world made it seem so primitive and old that I estimated his arrival had happened over 1,000 years ago.
