Capítulo 156: Question?
Both Haru and Kaspian shook hands for the last time today.
'I'll make sure to use this opportunity well,' Kaspian thought as he looked at Haru.
'You better not waste this chance,' Haru thought Both of them didn't say a word but their words reached the other.
"Then I wish you all the best for your endeavor Mr. Bladeheart," Zenobia said with a slight smile.
"I wish the same for you, Lady Zenobia, I hope you succeed at what you want," Kaspian said as he looked at Haru who was about to open the door. Zenobia had a tinge of red on her face but she smiled.
"I hope so as well," Zenobia said and Kaspian was shocked as Zenobia didn't deny it.
'Well, it is good for her,' Kaspian smiled as he suddenly remembered something.
"Lady Zenobia my niece wanted to meet you if you ca-" Kaspian was talking but Zenobia spoke cutting him off.
"She is still 'young' maybe in the future," Zenobia spoke in a firm tone making Kaspian sigh but he was happy that Zenobia thought that his niece has potential. He was proud because he was the one who taught her since childhood.
'Claire is going to be delighted if she hears this, But still young huh, Haven't heard her say that in a while,' Kaspian smiled as he understood the meaning behind Zenobia's words.
"Ok, I'll carry your message to her," Kaspian smiled and Zenobia turned around then walked towards the door after a nod.
Seeing that both Haru and Zenobia had left Kaspian went back to his desk and slumped down on his chair.
"Phew* I feel like I aged about 10 years today," Kaspian said with a tired look but the smile on his face was clear as day.
'I didn't think that Lady Zenobia will take so much interest in someone,' Kaspian thought while thinking about what type of person Zenobia is.
" 'I can compromise with my life but not with my creations,' I still remember her saying that to the three royal families face at the council." Kaspian chuckled when he remembered that day he was also there at the request of King Glayder who thought Zenobia will soften up after meeting an old friend but well things didn't go as he thought.
"She had left things like friends and family behind a long time ago or the Royal Family of Sapin wouldn't have lasted this long," Kaspian muttered as he looked outside of the window to see Haru and Zenobia board a carriage. And even till the end…
Kaspian shook his head and looked at the Beast Cores and smiled.
'Now let's get this party started shall we,' Kaspian stood up and wore his cloak after storing the cores in his dimensional ring.
He walked out of the office and headed towards the Helstea Auction House himself. He also had a few things he wanted to confirm there anyway.
***
The inside of the carriage was silent as both Haru and Zenobia didn't say anything.
"Is it really alright Zenobia?" Haru suddenly asked bringing Zenobia out of her thoughts. She looked at Haru and understood what he meant.
"Yes it is fine, they can't make things any more troublesome for me anyway," Zenobia said with a calm smile.
"Even then haven't you forgiven the royal family for what they had done to you?" Haru asked making Zenobia smile.
"I am just merely doing nothing, there is nothing as grand as me forgiving them, I just left that matter behind because I found something better to dedicate my life to than revenge that wouldn't help anyone but only cause more lives to be lost," Zenobia shook her head.
"Hmm, Sorry to pry into your matters," Haru said as he looked away.
"It is fine, what Mr. Haru knows is already known to most Nobles of the kingdom and even many citizens know it as well, if I had truly forgiven them then, I would've made the weapons for all of the lances even if they aren't worthy of them, they are the most powerful people who will stand at the forefront, But I didn't do that, Now I don't know how many lives will be lost because of my stubbornness, so you can say that I still hold a grudge," Zenobia said with a small smile waiting for Haru to response her palms were sweaty as she looked at him.
"But didn't you give them all weapons and armors?" Haru asked again seeing that Zenobia wasn't against talking about it.
"That? I only let them choose from the armory where I store the weapons I make as practice, it is made while keeping a specific set of people in mind on a broader scale, so it is below the weapons and armor that are made for one specific person," Zenobia shook her head and explained.
"But you didn't do anything wrong though," Haru titled his head making Zenobia look up in surprise. As of now, all she had heard about her decision was criticism from the nobles as the royalty stayed neutral on the surface.
"I can see from your expression that you are confused," Haru chuckled making Zenobia blush a little.
"What I mean is weapons can only show their full potential in the correct hands, suppose if you give a normal man a holy sword, what do you think he can do with it?" Haru asked Zenobia.
"That would be a waste as he won't be able to bring out the real power that the weapon has," Zenobia answered as it was a matter of fact.
"What do you think the person who forged that sword will think?" Haru asked the second question.
"The forger will be naturally unhappy that the sword he made with hard work and dedication was wasted in the wrong hands, he would rather have the sword collect dust and wait for the day someone who can wield it properly appears," Zenobia smiled as she said it was exactly her line of thoughts but it didn't apply to her, Because she was capable of making weapons that would suit the other Lances but she would have to lower her standard of work for that.
And that was something she wasn't willing to do, it had nothing to with the skills or battle experience of the person in question, but rather something deeper that she was able to see. It was one's spirit and will or in simpler words the power of their soul.
And that was also the reason she was so fascinated with Haru. For her, Haru was the second person to have such a soul after her Teacher.
She had seen many people with powerful souls but none of them came close to her Teacher that is until…..
'His soul radiates an unimaginable power, It is like a dark red haze that surrounds him completely and it blocks me from seeing it directly,' Zenobia thought while looking at Haru. Every time she tried to see his soul she would always be met with this haze.
This had only happened once before and that was with her teacher. But even her teacher didn't have a soul like this she was able to pass through that haze and see his soul but here no matter she wasn't able to see past that Haze.
'Hmm, cheeky little brat,' Kurumi thought as she glanced at Zenobia with her left eye and then closed it again
"I don't think that the people will blame you for not making weapons for someone you deemed unworthy, it shows your character and knowledge if you can infer that much about a person, no one has the right to criticize you for something you believe in," Haru said with a smile shocking Zenobia as she was brought out of her thoughts.
Seeing her shocked expression Haru thought she looked quite cute.
"Any weapon is a good weapon if it is in the hand of the correct wielder, if a wielder can't bring out the best of a weapon then it is his own fault and from a forger's point of view it would be better to keep the weapon than let it be wasted," Haru said plainly making Zenobia laugh. she was happy as her heart felt a warmth she hadn't felt before, she was happy to know that someone trusted her judgment, other than her teacher Haru was the first time to agree with her views.
Haru smiled looking at her face. Haru could see her eyes clear up as she looked at Haru with a smile.
"Really, Thank you very much, Mr. Haru, I thought I would help you but you have once again put me in your debt," Zenobia said with a sincere expression.
"I was just talking bullshit here, don't mind me," Haru said as he waved his hand.
"It might be like that to other people but it was important to me, So thank you very much, Now I feel like I can do it," Zenobia said with a smile.
"Do What?" Haru asked with curiosity.
"I can make the best weapons this world has ever seen," Zenobia said with a bright smile making Haru laugh.
"Then you will need a wielder of that caliber as well," Haru said making Zenobia smile as she nodded her head.
'That is correct But that won't be a problem anymore,' Zenobia thought as she looked at Haru with her face blushing a little but it was hidden with her skin.
"But Zenobia, say if many people die because of your choice this time, Would you regret your decision?" Haru asked and Zenobia looked at him.
