~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: Looking at the periter of the Palace, Capital City Avalon)~~~
~~~(Ti: 4:12 PM)~~~
These last 4 hours of thinking about how I'm getting into the Palace beyond the periter have really opened my eyes to how stubborn I can be... Sotis...
Going in there and saying who I am is the easiest and quickest way. At first, I said that I wasn't going to do that, but after seeing all the hassle that such a narrow-minded plan would make, I have changed my mind. Besides, once I know where I'm going to find Kris Martim. I won't be in this city for much longer.
Now that I've changed my mind again, ti that I actually follow through with it before I change my mind again. It doesn't take long to find a nice high point on a building. No one is even bothering to look this high.Â
In a single thought, my wings appear, and I stretch them out now that they're free. It feels good to stretch them. My eyes rest on the large Palace, and it's ti to commit. I launch off the building, and I hear people shouting as I fly over the periter of the Palace.
Closing in on the front gardens of the castle, I flow down and softly land. As I do, all the guards that are around doing patrols look at and are frozen in place. Words try to co out of so, but none can speak.
"Can soone take to see the Queen? I have business with her."
I'm not surprised to see that most of these guards are NPC's turned Players. An officer of the guard force here steps forward. He lowers his head as he gets down on one knee.
"Angel Zern... It's an honor to be in your presence... But there is a eting between the ruling family and all the nobles..."
It's obvious he's stalling for ti, so soone can warn the people inside what's going on. After all, I'm known for killing a King. There are other ways to solve problems without blades, and that's what I'm trying to do right now.
The massive doors to the Palace swing open on the other side of the garden. And I see a large man walking down the path. He sees and stops in his tracks.
"You weren't lying... I'm sorry I questioned your character and threatened your life..."
Seems the guard escorting him was put on the chopping block if this turned out fake. Since we are in a more private area, I lift my hood off my head. Not many react, but so take a step back. It's not often people see my face.
The large and armored man makes his way to with haste. He's a high-ranking officer in the military. He's also a Player. One, which I find interesting. While the nobles are a mix of NPCs turned Players and Players from Earth, it's rare to see this situation.
The Royal Family are all NPCs turned Players. So it makes sense that Players from Earth would rise in the military.
"Your visit is unexpected... But you're welco here any ti. Follow , Angel Zern."
I don't know why I'm being addressed as Angel Zern. Not that I really care to begin with. People don't know my real na, and that's for a good reason.
The man leads into the Palace, and everyone is turned to the door that I co through, and there are varying reactions.Â
As I'm walking toward the throne, I feel sothing collide with my legs. I look down, and I see two little kids that have fallen over from running into . They look up at , and fear grows as their eyes drift to my wings.
"Control your children, Jessara!"
The man in front of is quick to look at the mother off to the side, and she has a look of fear herself. My attention falls back to the kids, and they can't even move. My next move causes everyone to freeze.
Now that I'm crouched in front of them, they curl in themselves. I grab their hands and stand them up. They straighten out and look at .
"Run back to your mother. Just be careful when playing."
They're young, and they don't know what they're doing. Even kids born of nobility are allowed to have a childhood.Â
"I'm terribly sorry for the rude and disrespectful actions toward you, Angel Zern..."
The man that's leading to the thrones where the Royal Family is sitting decides to go all military on . On Earth, he must've been a military man himself.Â
I'd like to ask where he's from, but after a few seconds of walking, we make it to the thrones, and I see the family that rules over the powerful Kingdom of Avalon.
"It's an honor to et The Son of Arch-Angel Michael. I'm Queen Korrsa Veldrindor, and I'm the ruling power of this family."
The Kingdom of Avalon doesn't have a King. It has a Queen and her consorts. Any child born from her is a prince or princess. The next to inherit the Kingdom would be the firstborn. That's how the ruling politics is held in The Kingdom of Avalon.
She's nervous. I can see it. Her 3 children on the other thrones are also nervous.Â
"I'm not here to cause any trouble, Queen Veldrindor. I'm in need of so information, and I'd rather discuss this in a private area."
Whispers break out among the nobles in attendance, and I hear the man that escorted here curse under his breath. He's not fond of nobles, and neither am I. They like to assu I'm soone that prefers the higher class of life.
Not in this world, I experienced the higher life on Earth for a brief ti. And being rich on Earth during my ti is way better than being rich on Gaia. But my reputation and status make far more... Known... Than any of the nobles here.
"Very well. What kind of Queen would I be if I didn't help such a being of your Life-rating..."Â
It's rare for anyone to bring up Life-ratings anymore. As the son of an Arch-Angel and the grandson of The Almighty Father, I have one of the highest Life-ratings a being can have.
"You lead the way, Queen Veldrindor. I look forward to any information you have or the people that you know have."
If her helping is significant enough, The Almighty Father will reward her. Just like those shop owners that helped Sally and . They got a reward for helping selflessly. But that's the catch. Soone has to help selflessly.
She stands from her throne, and I follow her out of the large eting hall and into a more private location. Guards are waiting outside the room we're in, and we're all alone.
"This isn't a day that I ever saw coming. I never thought that Slayer Zern himself would ever visit my family. Let alone ask for my help. But given every Player cos here, it makes sense that you are here anyway."
She takes a seat as she finishes talking, and I sit across from her. A maid enters the room and prepares so tea and cakes.
"I'll make it quick since you are busy. Do you know anything about a magician known as Kris Martim? He's soone that I need to speak to."
She elegantly closes her eyes as she sips from her tea. Just from the vibe, I can tell she knows sothing.Â
"I don't know him personally, but I have heard of him. I know a man that is in frequent contact with him. I can summon him here if you wish..."
This has already proven to be the best option.
