Kapitel 41: Chapter 41: Grace
* Nova's sudden appearance had no pun intended to put a tremendous chill on the entire high-ranking Killick population. Even an elite warrior like Vincent had a hard time hiding his ex-growthers, the king himself had stashed his hands under his buffet table. The queen made no secret of it, not liking the Hyversons she was on the verge of going into Grimnir mode and attacking him. But another Killick was impassive *.
-Tharsis does not hold back. It's an order from the queen.
- I will not have to do it, he will kill you.
* King Arthos got up after having regained his composure and stared at the young man and his murderous aura *.
-You always give me so much the niac NOVA. What brings you here Son? * Cried Arthos *.
* The Killick then turned to his friend who was about to behead his younger brother. Margred was strangely no more than that affected by Nova's pressure. Maybe because he had already felt 5 years ago or just that he was too close to feel how much he was in danger. And yet Nova approached him step by step. Suddenly ... All the pressure that emanated from the stadium disappeared. Marg then noticed that Nova was not even armed. The latter knelt in front of his friend and pressed his forehead to the ground *.
-He ... he ... he kneels down * Said Vincent shocked *
-Nova prostrates himself. * Yell Ortega *.
* Helmborg, the king, Astride, Tharsis and even Sephora squared their eyes wide *.
-NOVA. * Shouted Hussein *. Head up.
* Because yes he had not done that to prostrate he had squarely dissipated his aura, he was not on his guard, for Margred who had known him for longer than the others he only doubted that this gesture meant " no matter what my brother is accused of, I ask you to forgive him. In which case I am ready to take the sentence ". And as proof he carried no weapon. In his position Margred would have no problem passing his friend's Wand if he put all his power into it. But did he really have to? He remained paralyzed, Adje's strongest Killick bowed down to him and begged him for mercy. Even Hakim almost cried *.
-What is he going to do? Isn't he going to behead him? * Asked a warrior *.
-But it's Nova we're talking about anyway.
* Margred watched the scene in amazement but finally stopped shaking and turned towards the king *.
-I'm giving up. * He shouted *. Go get up, you pity me Nova.
* The whole Killick community was surprised. Margred had neither decided to behead Nova nor kill Hakim he had given up just like that. Nova stood up and smiled at his friend. Margred, a little embarrassed, looked away but Nova held out his hand and they quickly exchanged a grip. Then he turned to his silly little brother *.
-N ... Nova I'm sorry.
* He took a lightning slap that nearly knocked him off balance *.
-Ah that must hurt.
* But just before he fell Nova hugged him. The still reeling young boy began to cry hot tears while he was supported by his brother *.
- Damn he freaked me out for a moment. * Ortega sighed *.
-Me too * Said Hussein *.
* After the embrace with his brother Nova turned to the king whom he saluted by bowing he scrutinized the crowd out of the corner of his eye and waved his hand as well as a smile at Hussein, a slight indifferent gaze in direction of his mother, then he flew again and left for the fortress monastery of HQ Alpharion as fast as he had come. It only lasted five minutes but it looked like Arsiaga had just suffered a fucking Cyclone. When the pressure dropped, a Killick in the crowd stood up and screamed at the top of his lungs *.
-WHAT WAS THAT CRAZY THING?
* No one could get over the scene or even fully understood what had happened but in any case it was over. With such a convincing plea no one had anything to say about the situation *.
-Well. * Said the king *. As there is still one enemy standing, victory should normally go to Margred. But it is not without saying that we have all witnessed something quite unusual.
-Indeed. * Said the queen who got up in her turn *. Young Killick after your crime your sentence should be death. But you more than anyone on this island braved danger and faced death in Judgment by Combat. You accepted your handicap and you faced your enemies. And even if I find your motives irrational it goes without saying that you as well as all of us have the right to call you Killick.
* The queen's long, praising monologue surprised many, she who usually couldn't care less about others was complimenting someone and moreover a Hyverson *.
-That's why I declare you free from the charges against you. Hakim Hyverson you are FREE.
* The crowd began to hoot again chanting his name. "Hakim Hakim". The few Killicks who had bet on his victory were in heaven and Hussein who was tired of waiting in the stands jumped on the arena to hug his brother. But more so the fact that she called Hakim by her mother's last name made Sephora bristle and she knew it too she gave him a sly smile. But another news came to shake the course of the day *.
-Majesty. * tell Margred *.
-I'm listening to you champion of Dedalus. * tell Astride *.
-I think we have all witnessed the bravery and strength of this kid so I would like him to come into the service of the Legion Dedalus.
-Uh excuse me ... * Hakim wondered *.
-I am aware of the difference between us and how much he hates our commander, but it would be a significant asset on the battlefield if he was properly trained.
-I see indeed. But what does the interested party think?
* All eyes were then turned to Hakim. The latter still couldn't get over it. This situation, although he might have found it unpleasant, was strangely well brought about. He had that feeling of Euphoria in him, that feeling that everyone recognized his strength. Moreover Margred stared at him with that look so intense that he felt himself grabbed. Even the Legion master was overwhelmed by this change *.
- Do I really have the right to join you? What does the master of Legion think? * Hakim asked *.
* At this point two warriors from the Dedalus Legion entered the arena and one of them covered Margred with a cloak while another sheathed her sword. Margred crossed his arms *.
- I don't care about his opinion. I'm the Legion champion and you can't deny anything to someone who has just won a judgment by fight.
*The young boy's face lit up and he stood up*.
-In this case I agree to leave your Legion.
-Here is what is heard. * Said the queen *. If anyone objects, let him raise his hand immediately.
* Raheem wanted to oppose it but his gaze met Helmborgson's and he had to retract. Hussein, who was standing near his brother, was very upset *.
-I don't know if I should laugh or cry but I'm proud of you little brother.
* Margred whirled around and walked towards the locker room *.
-Come on kid follow me, you still have a way to go. And here you are, a member of Dedalus now.
-Please take care of my silly brother. * Implored Hussein *.
-He's one of my men now ... I always take care of my men.
* From the platform everyone commented on what they had just seen. Ortega was quite pleased with what he had just seen. Sitting at the Officials stand Vincent, who had regained his usual calm, looks at Sephora who had ended up smiling *.
-How long have you predicted that things would turn out like this?
-You know Vincent you are much too suspicious. Everything is not the result of manipulation of the shadows.
-You finally deign to open your mouth.
-I didn't want to spoil the show with unnecessary comments. Besides I found it very unexpected the outcome not you? * Said she smiling *.
- Unexpected for whom?
-You distrust yourself too much ... That's why you and I can't work.
* She leaned in his direction and put her hands on his cheeks before kissing him. But Vince stopped him by stepping back *.
-You see ? It can't work.
* Then she got up and left in the colyseum. Inside Hakim walked after Margred followed by two girls who followed him like doggies *.
-Can I know who these two girls are?
-Apprentices, recruits. Do you know the hierarchy of a Legion Kid?
-More or less ... There is the commander or master of Legion, a captain who leads a company, wizards, scholars, sergeants etc etc ...
-You learned your lessons well even if you did not go into details. Do you see every Legion has what we call a Champion? The champion does not need to be the strongest, it is one who is completely loyal to the Legion who carries his values and his principles, but above all he must be ready to meet all the challenges that his commander imposes on him. He is just as important as a captain or a master wizard and can have a company under his command. His role in battle is to gain the advantage for his Legion and motivate his men.
-Woaaaah too phew, I knew you were extraordinary. * He said with pearls in his eyes *.
-Ah ... * Said he surprised by his reaction *. I forgot you're just a teenager.
-But it's too good you're really important.
-Exact. I'll be honest before the fight your mother came to see me.
-My mother ?
* They stopped walking *.
-I don't know if it's clairvoyance or luck, but she asked me to recruit you. I told her if you had the level maybe and even if it was a fight to the death then I would kill you. And do you know what she answered me?
-Not what ?
- "You risk being greatly surprised". Like that, in the end I still ended up taking you under my wing or at least in my legion. Like those two girls there.
-My ... Mother had planned that?
-Possible, it's not Kremis' witch for nothing. * He said *. In a few months I will become an Elite Warrior, and in a few years I will become the master of Dedalus. When that happens I want you to be my champion. What do you think ?
* Hakim gave him a big enthusiastic "YES" *.
-Well.
* Then he started walking again. He gave a slight amused smile *.
- In the end, when did I play this woman's game ... Ha * He said in a low voice *.
* He stopped and turned around, but saw that Hakim was no longer advancing *.
-Hey whats up ? You changed your mind ?
-He no it's just .... My mother was there just now. She hugged me.
-Ridiculous. I would have felt it otherwise it's Sephora we're talking about.
-I know but ... It seemed so ... Reel, she whispered in my ear and ...
-Don't be ridiculous, we have to do something about your oedip complex.
-He ... I'm not in love with my mother. * He shouted *.
-Silence I am your superior remember you.
* They continued on their way, but in a sudden blow just behind Sephora was leaning against a wall with a smirk *.
-Ah by the way if my father hates your mother it's because they slept together in the past.
-Eh ?
-Who knows you may be my little brother. You could call me big brother.
-NEVER
* In the days that followed the events of the Colyseum were still causing a stir. Sitting in a tea room Vincent was dining with his friend, Dagger and reading the newspaper. The two men sat on the balcony gazing at Arsiaga *.
-So ... what did you think of all this? * Vincent asked *.
* Dagger crossed his fingers and legs *.
-It's a show of force.
-That's what I thought. The Hyverson clan is very intrusive in our current society.
-Hey, calm down the conspirator. Lots of clans get involved in Adje.
-But none has so many spheres in our society. * Vince replied *. Nova is in the Alpha Guild as a Scholar. Who knows one day he may be allowed to use magic. Do you see Nova throwing lightning bolts at us?
* Dagger took a cup of tea to avoid answering it *.
-That's what I thought. Then we have Hussein. He is not a fighting beast but he is also an expert and he is a scribe working in the library of Warren the Dark.
- Of all the siblings, he is surely the least dangerous and the calmest. * Said Dagger *. There is also their mother who sits on the personal council of the king even if she also has obligations as supervisor.
-The little Sinlay has not yet made her bang so we do not know anything about her. * Said Vincent *. And recently the last born, came out of who knows where and surely the most dangerous ... Dagur.
-Dagur? The super arrogant kid of the selection? How is this a threat?
-He befriended Prince Emory and Prince Kaleb as much to say that he already has a foot in the upper echelons. And especially this kid knows how to surround himself.
-Indeed ... Looking back the Hyverson clan ...
-You'll pass the elite warrior test in a few months, won't you? I will need your strength.
-You can count on me ... My friend.
