Capítulo 22: Chapter 20- Battle of Elven Forest Part 2

Holy Capital

The holy guard have been running many errands and some are getting ready to support Elven forest the time Crux attacks. They are just waiting for Griffin's order to move when the castle gates opened. They were shocked to see 20 silver wolves with white armored riders enter the gate. They were carrying a flag with a sword as its symbol. Behind the riders were more armored guys marching behind. They were all carrying a dual handed sword with one hand and a giant shield in the other. The soldiers were mesmerized in what they saw. " Is this the divine army?" some thought while others are trembling in fear. They thought the paladins are going to invade the Holy kingdom. The soldiers silenced when the castle door opened and Griffin stepped out.

" I see you've met the paladins from Order." Griffin said casually. This is not his first time seeing a paladin because of hi long lifespan, he witnessed the rise and fall of ancient kingdoms.

The knights were alarmed upon hearing what griffin said. The revival of the kingdom of Order was still not released to the public yet so only the ministers and the king knew about the situation. The soldiers were astonished to see ancient figures right before their eyes.

While these things were taking place, Kazuki was about to walk out of the castle to join Griffin. The moment he stepped out, the paladins knelt as well as the silver wolves to pay respect.

" We welcome our king and will fight to death for him." they all said in unison. The paladins of Order are well-trained. They are ready to face everything including life and death situations. That's the reason why Order was the greatest kingdom in the past.

After the greeting, Kazuki rode Pegasus and said " Brave soldiers, today we will be going to battle as men of honor. We will be giving a helping hand to our elven friends and will come back alive. Together we will bring the glory of out motherland with us!"

Cheers can be heard all over the castle and the soldiers and paladins left with Kazuki leading them.

Elven Forest

Inside the castle, the ministers were quarreling about the war's aftermath. They plan to defend Elven forest from Crux while maintaining low casualties. The chances are almost impossible but not zero. Even with the Elven forest and the Holy kingdom combined, Crux's military strength is still superior and the Dark territory also teamed up with them. The king could only facepalm seeing the ministers quarrel like children in a crucial situation. Between the argument, a messenger entered the room.

" Your Majesty, the Holy kingdom troop as well as the paladins of Order has arrived." After reporting, he left without saying a word.

On the other hand, the ministers as well as Gimel can't believe in what they just heard. It was common knowledge that Order didn't exist anymore so they thought that Griffin was the one controlling them but little did they know the one leading the paladins was the hero himself.
