章 24: Preparing

"Cough! cough!" Leon who was injured was coughing blood on the ground. His handsome face is pale white and his expression was dark.

"Your Highness!" the guards nearby quickly help Leon up from the ground. The queen immediately goes to her son's side and helps him heal his injuries.

A few seconds later, the queen finished healing her son's injury and asked, "What is that thing? How can it suddenly appear in the sky?"

The people in the capital who noticed the eye in the sky thought that it is a bad sign. With the events in the capital, it is only natural for them to think that way.

"Escort the prince to his room and send inform the intelligence unit to investigate what happened here" the queen relay her orders as she returns inside the palace.

Outside the capital city, an old man was wearing a golden armor standing beside the road. His expression was stern and his eyes were sharp. A powerful aura was coming out from his body making the soldiers around him feel intimidated. He was the other Rank A warrior of the Silverwing Kingdom, Han Goldling the father of the current queen and the patriarch of the Goldling Family.

"My lord is it really necessary for you to personally receive them?" a man asked Han Goldling. He was the captain of the soldiers of the Goldling family. For him, Han Goldling is a man with high status. Aside from that, he also has a powerful strength that could stand at the peak of the kingdom. He thought that it is not necessarily needed for him to wait and escort the people of the Molon Kingdom.

"Morton, you don't know who is the person that is coming that's why you can say those words" Han said with a deep voice. "The princess of the Molon Kingdom will arrive in our capital. She is one of the most influential figures in the Molon Kingdom. Aside from that, she is also a genius mage who reached Rank B in just short years. With that kind of person coming here, do you really think that I should not welcome her? Also, the king of the Molon Kingdom will definitely let an expert protect her safety"

"We just need to show or sincerity to them" Han then turn to the road and said, "Here they are"

At the end of the road, a luxurious carriage was slowly approaching the camp. It was surrounded by multiple knights riding tough horses. Just one glance and they could see that the knights surrounding the carriage were elite knights.

"See, the armors that the knights were wearing are all higher quality than my soldier" Han Goldling's tone has a trace of envy as he stares at the knights. This is one of the differences between the two kingdoms.

The carriage stops in front of them, Han Goldling slowly steps forward and said, "I am Han Goldling, the Patriarch of the Goldling Family. I am here to escort her highness the princess inside the capital"

"So it is his excellency Lord Goldling, then I would have to bother you this time" a beautiful voice came out from the carriage. The voice was very pleasing to the ear that even Han Goldling was affected by it and slightly stunned.

"Then please follow me" riding his horse, Han Goldling leads the carriage inside the capital.

Hundreds of kilometers away from the capital. A tall man with white hair exhaled deeply. His expression was serious and cold. Demonic power was coming out from his body making him a very dangerous person.

"What is the situation in the capital?" a young man beside asked. It was Lori who just finished fighting against the barbarians yesterday. The reason he was here was to use the ability of his summon to see what is happening in the capital.

"The situation in the capital is just like you said. There are soldiers patrolling everywhere while the outside was surrounded by an army. The palace was tightly guarded by the soldiers. But I found that an old man was sneaking inside the palace towards its highest room" the man answered respectfully.

Jericho Swain, a character from the game League of Legends were Lori's summon from the reward he gets from the last mission. After his battle with the barbarians, Lori with the help of Crocodile makes all the barbarians sign a slave contract with him. As for where that many slave contracts came from, Lori didn't ask Crocodile.

Yesterday when the barbarians were defeated, Lori send someone to their camp to take anything. But to his disappointment, the barbarians didn't really have anything to them. Aside from dried meat which was their food for the war, they have nothing else. Because of that Lori lashed out to the barbarians and send 2,000 of them to the different mines in the mountains. While the other with Khof who sign a slave contract would be his additional soldiers for his upcoming battle.

"The highest room in the palace? That is my father the king's chamber. Who would sneak towards it?" Lori's face was anxious when he heard Swain's words. He knew that the highest room in the palace belongs to his father. And from the message, he receives before, his father was unconscious there with his mother.

'Who is that old man and why is he sneaking in the palace?' Lori asked himself. His expression then turned cold and said, "But no matter who he is, if he does something against my parents, I will find him and make him pay"

"Swain when we return to the city, you organize the army. You will lead my army in its march towards the capital"

"I can already see our victory and their blood soaking our boots," Swain said and ravens covered the sky circling around them.

Mountain Cloud City

After the two return in the city, the system notification sounded inside Lori's head.

Ding!

Main Mission Part 3: Destroy the troops guarding around the Capital City to show your might!

Reward: Random character summon!

When Lori saw that it was a mission, a smile crept from his face.

"Father you are smiling again. Father is really weird" a cute voice followed by soft footsteps and Mia arrived in front of him. Her emerald hair was wet and a cute smile was on her face. "Father I just take a bath with big sister Rose. Why is her body different from mine father?"

"Hmm? What is different?" Lori lifted the little girl to his arms. He already gets used to Mia calling him father so he doesn't really care about it that much. What he cares was now this little girl is so cute and loving. Every time he was with her, he couldn't help but smile.

"This father, big sister's chest is different than mine. Hers was bigger and softer which is very comfortable to touch. While mine is nothing like hers" the little girl complains while her cheeks were puffed out.

"This" Lori didn't know how to answer the little kid. Although Mia was a dragon, her appearance right now was a little kid. He felt that discussing this with a little kid was inappropriate so he changes the topic. "Mia, why don't we play together?"

A flower-like smile bloom from Mia's small and cheerfully said, "Alright, playing with father is what Mia loves the most"
