บท 76: The cum*... i mean calm before the storm
Varay pov)
Am I the only one who find this day to be the worst day of being a Lance? What was the point of being known and admired as the strongest when in reality you're nothing but a stepping stone for someone else?
What can we even do now? He disappeared with them, and we don't know where he took them.
'Was it wise to let them go?'
It was a mistake to let them go. I still don't believe that boy is on our side.
We could have used the Director and Virion since they seem to know that boy.
"What should we do now"
Looking at Bairon who was standing beside me looking at the same place I was looking at, he eyes were full of anger and I understand him.
"We have to report and here what the council got to say, but first we need to make sure that this area is safe"
"So are you really going to believe that boy and those two? Look around you and tell me what you see? Damage and death everywhere, all of this was caused by him, and we're just going to believe him that he's on our side?" Said Bairon.
"Watch who you're barking at Bairon, do you think I myself want to accept this?" I shot my answer at Bairon who lowered his head.
"All of you saw his demonstration of power, not to mention that beast" I said as I turned around to looked at the other Lances.
"Lances Varay, it's Alea"
It was one of the healers that were healing Alea.
Not wasting time, I quickly head towards her direction, followed by the other Lances.
"How are you feeling?" I asked while looking at Alea who was leaning on the wall.
"A little better, but it seems like it would take some time for me to walk" replied Alea as she started looking at the other Lances. "What happened to you guys? Don't tell me that bandage guy did this to all of you?".
"No, but who is this bandage guy you're speaking of?" I asked Alea.
"He was who massacre that town, I tracked him here but when I reach here I found him engaging in a fight with a boy who was wearing the Academy uniform.
I tried fighting that guy, but I almost got myself killed. It was thanks to that boy who helped me, but after that I don't remember anything other than waking up with those black spikes on me".
"So you're telling me that that boy wasn't the one who attacked you?"
"No, the bad guy was that guy with bandages on him. Wait! Did you capture him?"
"No, by the time we arrived here only you and the boy were here, but we thought that he was the one who did this to you so we fought him"
"Is he ok?"
"Haha you should ask if they are okay, that boy beat their asses even our Ice queen here was nothing" Said Aya .
"Shut up" I said as I put her in an ice coffin.
"So where is he?"
"We don't know where he went, but wel…"
I had to stop talking and looked at the building that wasn't far from where we were gathering. Three figure emerged from the shadows.
'What did he tell them?' I asked myself while looking at Virion and Director Goodsky, their expression were down as if they have received bad news about someone's death.
"Varay, we need to hurry and get back to the castle" Said Virion as he stood a few meters away from me.
"You mean he's also coming with us" I asked Virion while looking at the boy behind him.
"Yes"
Am I the only who feel the bad guy vibe on that boy?
"Olfred make some golem for Elder Virion and Director Goodsky" I ordered Olfred who nodded back.
"No need for that" Said Director Goodsky as she looked at her body on her shoulder.
Suddenly, the owl turned into a huge creature that was a little familiar to me since I've read it about its existence, but I never believe I would get to see one.
"A wyvern!"
'From what have happened till now, I'm not even surprised by this'
Director Goodsky and Virion get on the back of the wyvern while the boy slowly started levitating.
"Olfred carry Alea, we're going back to the castle.

'it's already morning?' Thought Madara while looking at the rising sun.
They have been flying for almost two hours now, all he's been seeing were different beasts below them.
'I wonder what they are thinking now, I've told them everything they need to know. So its their choice if they want to believe me or not '
"I'm sorry Virion" Said Director Goodsky.
"There's no need for sorry now, we have serious matters to discuss" Said Virion as he started thinking about everything they talked with Madara.
' Should I be happy that he's powerful and can defeat our enemies? Why do I regret that things have turned this way?' Thought Virion while looking at Madara from afar.
It didn't take long for them to finally reached the floating castle.
"It's huge" Said Madara while looking at the castle in front of him.
The clouds below it were making the castle to be seen like it was standing above them.
The latter slowly started descending towards the castle.
The guards that were guardian the castle started panicking when they saw Director Goodsky's wyvern, but soon calm down after seeing that the Lances were also with the wyvern.
"Follow me" Said Varay the moment she touched the ground.
The latter started following Varay as she leads all the way to the Council meeting room.
"Open the door" Coldly said Varay.
The two guards quickly opened the door, allowing the latter to walked inside.
"Varay!, why weren't you answering our calls? We had a real problem h…"
The one to say those words was the Elves king, but the moment he saw the other Lances conditions and Madara with them, he had to stop and just watched as the Lances knees down.
'Where is the king and queen of the dwarves? Are they already dead ' Thought Madara while looking at the four people sitting on the round table.
'Who are you, and why aren't you kneeling down? Do you want to die boy?"
"Don't!!!" Shouted the latter that came with Madara upon hearing King Blaine's words.
"Huh? What are you people saying? Don't what?" Asked Blaine who seem confused by their actions.
"They meant to say that don't force me to knee down" Said Madara.
"Why you!!"
"Please calm down Blaine, I know who this boy is" Said the elf king as he looked at Madara.
"Lances Varay, explaining this situation"
"Yes, my lord" Said Varay as she started narrating what happened and with the help of Alea the kings and queens were filled with everything that happened till now.
"But, why is he here?" Said the human queen.
(AN: I forgot their names and I'm too lazy to search for them).
"He got some information about the new continent that you'll need to hear about" Answered Director Goodsky.
"A war is coming" Said Madara as he took a few steps forward.
"We know" Said Blaine.
'So I just made a fool of myself?'
"A Deity came here last night and before he left he told us everything about the other country and the incoming war, he even killed the king and queen of the dwarf kingdom saying that they were traitors that were working with the enemy" Said the Aldir as he supports Blaine's words. " But how do you know about the incoming war?"
"I'm sorry for doing this" Said Madara as he activates his Mangekyo Sharingan looked at Aldir then Blaine without the other noticing what he did. But, he didn't stop there, he also looked at the Queens and deactivate his eyes.
'Putting them under my control for now is my best action. This way I can have full control over this continent…Damn, I'm really turning into a villain here' Thought Madara.
"I know about the incoming war because I can help you guys defeated the enemy"
"We understand your words, but how?" Said Blaine.
"All you have to do is just follow my words and give me full control over your military power"
The rulers looked at each other and nodded their heads..
"We'll listen to your words and give you our military power"
"WHAT!!?" The Lances yelled as they looked at their rulers.
How can they just say that?
'This is not like them. How can they agree with him like that? It's like they weren't even thinking ' Thought Varay while looking at Blaine and Aldir.
"But, my lords. Don't you think you act too quickly? How can you believe h.."
"Quiet Varay" Said Blaine as he eyed her.
Seeing that her words won't do anything, Varay stayed quiet while looking at Madara in front of her.
"What did you do to them??" Asked Virion while looking at Madara.
"I just made them understand the situation easily" Said Madara.
Virion was starting to have doubts about Madara's plans.
'What did he do them? That's not the Aldir I know, he would never act that way '
*bam*
Suddenly, the door were burst opened, and a guard came running in, causing everyone to look at him.
"Bad news my Lords, There is a horde of different classes beasts is heading towards the Sapin kingdom" Said the guard.
The news shocked everyone, but on Madara's side, he was smirking.
"It seems like the enemies have already started making a move." Said Director Goodsky while looking at Madara as if waiting for what he would say.
"How long will it take until they reached the first town? Asked Blaine.
"Two or three hours"
"We won't be able to evacuate the people…Madara, you said you would help us defeat the enemy right? Since we have agreed to give you our full control over our military power, why don't you first show us if you can really help us. Please go and deal with those beasts"
*…*
'I think I order him to say too much, but that doesn't matter '
"Time to recreate some scenes"
