Chapter 1304: A Talk With The Rulers

-----

We were received by the Queen, who led us to the throne room where the King and the Prince were. Little Gustav seemed to have recovered already and he looked a bit more energetic, and the King was as stoic as always, although his eyes wouldn't stop glaring at Erebus, and I couldn't blame him for that, the boy was quite strange.

"Welcome back Planta, everyone," the King said. "It seems you had quite the issues back home. Was everything alright? If you had informed us earlier, we would have quickly deployed an army to your aid."

"I'm flattered for your willingness to help, your majesty, but that wasn't necessary, we were able to manage on our own," I said. "But I'm thankful for that, I hope I could use this little favor for another time."

"Of course," he nodded. "We've been helping one another for quite a while now. You saved my son's life, you defeated demons and saved even more people. We owe you perhaps more than you could imagine."
