The screams of the soldiers that were dragged along with the pulling of carriages stopped signaling that they had reached the palace.
Descending from the carriage placing his leg on the red carpet Nix raised his head high.
The palace was built in a very grandeur way. The walls were phenonal and there was even the emblem of the city bannered on the walls. Several turrets, ard n, archers, high walls, traps, there was every possible defense available in the palace.
He looked straight at the big red door that was wide open that was about fifty ters away.
"Bring them."
He ordered the soldiers as his very own to drag the n that were tied at the back.
The soldiers that stood on the sides of the carpet with their swords raised towards each other like an arc did not show any surprise though they seed pretty surprised to see two soldiers without limbs as their armors showed that they were the city's patrol soldiers.
Apart from all that the man who appeared, seed nothing extraordinary. All though he seed well built and a warrior like he did not seem a person of any high position.
Soon the guards handed over the rope with which the limbless soldiers were tied. He began walking towards the humongous palace dragging the soldiers who were screaming in agony.
Nix was disrespectful to the royal invite and did not give a damn. He walked majestically into the gate pulling the soldiers and behind him followed the Administrator gritting his teeth.
There was a limit to one's patience. If it isn't for Heredia he'd have severed his head at the very mont he behaved disrespectfully. All though he wouldn't be able to do such a thing with that fat body of his. He'd have ordered his knights or soldiers to do so.
The red carpet was painted with blood as he passed through and entered the palace gates which were wide open.
"Wel..."
The royal council's official's faces contoured upon laying their eyes on the grueso scene.
The torn down soldiers whose bones and fleshes were open. The imnse panting and begging. It was lecherous! The man who dragged the n looked at them with a vicious smile as an elegant blue-haired woman walked in.
"Greetings Goddess Heredia."
The n inside the grand hall uttered kneeling down.
"Greeting My followers."
She said and looked at Nix with her blue flaming eyes.
"Co closer."
And she called Nix went near and she locked hands with him.
"Let us go."
She ordered and walked along with him magnanimously.
"The War commander and her holiness are here!"
One of the doorkeepers announced and open the royal court's door.
Followed by them Yeril and Rebecca entered. Cinzia was made to go into a different room since she was not an important person at the mont.
Several pillars were raised in the sides balancing the ceiling that was painted in blue while the white walls possessed red banners that contained trident symbols. In the far distance was the grand tal throne which atop was a thirteen-year-old blonde-haired kid with an annoyed expression on his face.
"Greetings your majesty!"
The n and won of the royal council except the two.
The kid king stood from his seat and slightly bowed towards Heredia and sat on his throne again while looking at Nix prudishly.
"Hah"
Nix sighed and walked towards one of the chairs that was in the sides and pulled it to the facing the kid king and sat with his legs crossed while giving him an arrogant look.
"Nix..."
Rebecca warned Nix yet, he chose to do what he wanted to. Since a kid with such pride and rudeness needed to be taught a lesson.
"You dare show disrespect to and this royal council!"
The kid scowled looking at Nix angrily.
"Shut the fuck up kid," Nix said in a very casual tone placing a cigarette in his mouth.
"You!"
The kid gritted his teeth and glanced at Heredia who was smiling and then looked at Nix who ignited his cigarette in his mouth with a mocking smirk.
"Soldiers! Teach this impudent man a lesson!" He ordered.
"My apologies your Holiness! I cannot stay still to such disrespect!"
At that mont an evil smile appeared on the Administrator's face.
"Co on patience kid. Didn't your advisor teach you a lesson?" Nix said heaving out a smoke.
"Cease that man and make him kneel!"
"Well- Well... I did not want to kill you just because you are a kid. Seems like I should teach you a lesson."
He said raising up unsheathing his scimitar that was in his back.
"A re single man. Do you think you can handle hundreds of trained n?"
One of the counciln said.
"Who said I am fighting them?" Nix asked and imdiately few ssages appeared before him.
[Private Ability: Nova manifestation activated]
[Ex Ability: Spatial traverse activated]
Ex ability was the ability of his past that triggers when he uses Nova manifestation.
As soon as he activated Nix was before the kid king. He simply placed his sword on his neck. Everyone around him was shaken. The man literally placed his sword on his neck in front of the public.
Heredia smiled at the kid and began speaking.
"Vingeva, It is better for you to accept that your n cannot handle him. Rather you people need him to win this war."
"But, Your holiness..."
"I can only say once."
It seed to be a warning from her and in a re second Camila fell down.
"So, what now? Still want to kill ?"
"Take your sword away." He said as he began weeping.
The image of a king was utterly destroyed by Nix's mockery. It seems none laid their hands on him.
'Did I go overboard?'
He thought to himself and retracted his sword from his neck.
"Should be more polite Anyway."
He shrugged and sheathed his sword.
[Private ability: Doom Prediction activated]
He knew the mont he steps away he will be attacked.
As expected the very next mont he began to swing his chains descending the throne as several arrows and soldiers sped towards him in unison.
The man before them was uncontrollable, unpredictable, and vicious than they ever anticipated. Even the new knight captain nor the other knights couldn't handle him.
Rebecca unsheathed her sword and assisted Nix along with Yeril. Vingeva was beyond surprised he was getting goosebumps by the man's way of fighting. Not only this man proved his capability he had even possessed a knight who once served her and an angel! Under his command.
"Stop!"
Vingeva yelled wiping his tears.
"I the king, Vingeva apologize for my actions but, what you did is wrong too."
"Alright My apologies to you."
He said with a smile.
"Nix, The outsider... I also apologize for banishing you from this city. I hope you will help this city survive." Vingeva said.
'Not too bad of a kid huh?'
Nix thought and smiled at Rebecca.
"Knight Rebecca, I am glad that you and Yeril are still alive."
"Thank you, Your majesty."
Both Yeril and Rebecca bowed.
"And you!"
Nix pointed at one of the n who was wearing various jewels and bald-headed. He seed filthy rich at the very first glance.
"Yes?..."
The man said hesitantly.
"You are economical minister aren't you?"
"Yes..."
"Hmm, I'll talk with you later."
"Back to business Vingeva. What's the plan and what's my position?"
"Ahh Ahem..."
Breon cleared his throat since it seems he was the one who is pulling the strings from the back. He was also the one who has been helping Vingeva. He might be quite an opportunistic and greedy person but he was a loyal one. He safely guarded and protected his king if not Vingeva's throne would have been captured a long ago.
"Okay so, you are the one that is going to be explaining about my position and other things I assu?"
"Indeed Lord Nix. We can speak in the eting hall."
He uttered and the gates in the sides of the royal court opened up.
The king and his subjects followed this ti even Cinzia was invited and there were few unknown people as well.
"Well, I want Vingeva to participate in the war."
"Lord Nix... With all due respect, your suggestion is outrageous."
"You are going to wage a war without your king? doesn't that lower his na? He just needs to be in the war. I did not suggest making him fight."
"I can understand. But, He is just a ..."
"Kid? He had taken the mantle. What not he needs to learn won't you agree? I believe this could help him gain insight into the outer world. He seed to be good-natured but you are the one that is refraining his growth. Let him see his people's suffering. Let him participate among his soldiers."
"Why are suddenly interested in this sort of things."
"Well, he was naive. If he needs to judge or speak. He has so good traits in him why not let it grow? Could say I don't want him to judge other half-assed let him experience shit and feel empathy and see from their place. Won't you agree?" He questioned.
