Capítulo 25: Arrival
Capital City, Silverwing Kingdom
Inside the throne room, Queen Melissa was sitting on her throne with her son Leon beside her. Because of what happened earlier, Leon's face was slightly pale. But the handsome smile on his face didn't disappear and was staring dumbly at the beautiful young lady in front.
"Princess Jean of Molon Kingdom, I welcome you and your entourage in coming to the Silverwing Kingdom. I will make sure that you will enjoy your stay here" Queen Melissa smilingly said. When she saw the princess came inside the palace, she was surprised by her beauty. She had to admit that she was a level below compare to the princess in terms of beauty and bearing.
"I thank Her Majesty for the warm reception for us," the beautiful princess said. Then her eyes look around and an inexplicable light flashes in her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I'm just a little curious and couldn't help but ask a question"
The queen smiles and said, "What is it?"
The princess nodded her head and the old man near her speaks, "Where is King Lucas at the moment? He didn't even receive and meet us when we come"
The expression of the queen immediately changes when she heard the words of the old man. Everyone could feel the dissatisfaction and arrogance from the tone the old man speaks. As a queen, she certainly knew her position was high. How could an unknown old man talk in a disrespectful manner in front of her? But when she was about to let out her dissatisfaction, her father who was remaining silent, immediately interjected.
"Brother Red something unfortunate happens and the king won't be able to receive you. He was lying unconscious and was bedridden on his bed because of poisoning. Right now, we have been trying our best to find a cure for the poison" Han Goldling shake his head appearing depressed and dejected. "That's why right now, my daughter as the queen takes over the throne temporarily to lead the kingdom's people in place of the king"
The old man called Red remained silent and didn't talk anymore as if he understands the situation of the kingdom. But Princess Jean was thinking something different right now. She could see that there are something strange happening in this kingdom. Outside the palace, she noticed that soldiers were patrolling everywhere and the people seem scared and terrified.
Although she really didn't know if it is ordinary since this is her first time in the capital. She still believes that something is not quite right.
The queen sees that the situation has become weird and she called out, "Everyone, I know you are tired because of the long journey. A room was already prepared for you, let the servants help you to your room so that you could rest. Later this evening, I plan to hold a banquet so that we can celebrate your safe arrival"
From the side, multiple servants came out and escort the people from the Molon Kingdom to their room. When a servant was about to escort Princess Jean, Leon immediately steps forward.
"Princess Jean, I am Leon Silverwing the crown prince of the kingdom. Let me honor your arrival here by escorting you to your room" acting in a gentlemanly manner, Leon has a smile on his face as he offered his help.
Old Red saw it and was angry when he saw the crown prince wants to escort his princess. But he saw that the princess didn't want him to move so he just followed the servant.
"Please," Princess Jean said with a beautiful smile in her face.
When Leon see the smile directed towards him, he felt his heart started to beat wildly. He was stunned by her beauty that he stares at her directly.
Cough!
Cough!
The sound of cough came and Leon was immediately woke up from his daze. His face was immediately covered in shame as he apologizes, "I hope Princess Jean forgive my rude behavior just now. It's just that the princess was so beautiful that I am fascinated by it"
Princess Jean didn't say anything and just follow the prince escorting her.

A few days flashes by and Lori and the others were already finished in preparing for another battle. With Swain leading this battle combined with the other summons. Lori basically has nothing to do aside to wait for his victory.
Khof, the leader of the barbarian that's now his slave. Will also come with them and would be listening to Swain's arrangement in the army.
Commander Allan was left in the Mountain Cloud City to temporarily become its lord. Lori with Rose and Mia would be at the back of the army with Katakuri inside a carriage. Rose servant Mimi was with them serving them food from time to time.
Rose who was defeated by Katakuri in a duel easily still held resentment whenever he saw him. She would snort and hold the innocent Mia who just watches him with a curious expression.
For Mia, Katakuri was not only Lori's guard but also her friend and playmate. Whenever Lori and Rose were busy, she would go with Katakuri and the two would eat sweet things made by the chefs in the mansion. The foot called donut was something, Mia really likes. Because Katakuri gives her those delicious and sweet things, she treated him as a big brother and the two were really close.
Looking at the barbarian army and the other powerful individuals surrounding Lori. Rose couldn't help but think about why these people follow her big brother. Since the moment Lori left the capital, she had realized the huge change in him. She wanted to ask so many times in the past few days about it, but she always held back this question inside her.
"Brother, do you think mother and father are alright? Would that b*tch of a queen hurt them?!" with a worried expression, Rose said to Lori. Her mother Concubine Mill is a very silent and gentle type of woman. She tends to not voice out her emotions all the time that makes Rose extremely worried. It is also because of her mother's attitude that she trains to become a warrior so that she can protect her.
"This" Lori began to think for a while before he continues, "I don't know the exact situation in the capital. But I knew that the queen won't make a huge move against her. Don't forget about elder sister, if the queen dares to move your mother. Elder sister will definitely ask her master for help. And when that happened, it will be a huge problem for the queen"
A smile formed in Rose's lips as she said confidently, "Right, I have big sister. With big sister's identity, no one will dare to harm my mother"
"Big sister Rose are you talking about grandmother? You see, Mia wants to see grandmother already" Mia who was chewing a fruit said lovingly. Shockingly, the one who was giving her fruit wasn't Mimi, but Katakuri. His expression was still the same but you can see in his eyes that he was very pleased with what he's doing.
Hours of traveling had passed and they now reach they are several kilometers away from the capital.
At the same time in the sky above the soldier camp outside the capital. Morton who was the captain of the soldiers of the Goldling Family was staring at the sky. Not only him, some soldiers were also looking up at the flock of ravens circling around the camp. They were acting as if there is food down there.
'Why is these ravens acting weird?' Morton said to himself. He doesn't know why, but his heart seems restless. As if something bad was about to happen. Morton's intuition immediately let him decide of what to do. So he shouted at his soldiers, "Prepare yourselves, there is something wrong happening here!"
