《7 Dragons and Princess》 Prologue:The first walk There are five races in this world. There are the Humans, an inventive race that has made advances in many different fields, ranging from magic all the way to agriculture. One of their most notable contributions to the world is ¡®Battle Arts¡¯, which allows a person to go beyond the limitations of their body and wield the strength to crush a boulder with a staff or create a typhoon with the flick of a fan. Magic is divided into 10 levels, Level One being Beginner and Level Ten being Grand master. Battle Arts is divided into four tiers Basic, Intermediate, Advanced and Master. Then further divided into five more tiers Beginning, Knowledge, Understanding, Ending and Mastery. After the Humans are the Elves similar in appearance to Humans, what distinguishes them are their long, pointy ears. They live alongside nature and have the unique ability to commune with spirits, who will help to the Elves that ask for help. They are also known to live for 200 to 300 years old. Following the Elves are the Beastkin who are the most diverse in appearance and ability. They to are similar in appearance to Humans but their eyes, ears and tails are specific to the sub-race of Beastkin they are. The sub-race also affects their traits, canine based Beastkin are renowned hunters, feline Beastkin are known for being excellent assassin¡¯s and bovine Beastkin are known to be extremely strong and resilient. But one thing that all Beastkin have in common is a strong familial and community bond with one another, making them united in many causes. The most recluse race are the Merfolk who live within the depths of the ocean. Because of this little is known about other than that they can live on land. The fifth and strongest race are the Dragoons. They are known for two things the first being that they are very strong and capable combatants on their own. The second being that they have a symbiotic relationship and bond with the Dragons. Because of their strength and bond with Dragons they carry a lot of political weight and usually decide who wins a battle and even war. I am a Dragoon, though I have been exiled. Normally this would be considered a terrible fate but because of this I was able to meet the person who would change my life. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Narrator¡¯s POV Mechius Kingdom ¡°Father I demand that you cancel the engagement, I refuse to be wed to a stranger.¡± Princess A young woman with delicate white hair and contrasting black dress cut a beautiful yet resolved figure before her parents. She had been arguing with them for the last hour, about her engagement to their neighbouring kingdoms prince. ¡°My dear please understand, this is for the sake of the kingdom.¡± Queen Her mother gently pleaded. She is the spitting image of the princess just older. ¡°For the sake of the kingdom or for the sake of fathers pride?! I know father promised this before I was even born!¡± Princess The princess shouted, whilst glaring at her father. ¡°Nonsense, this is for the continued friendship between our two kingdoms, as well as for your happiness.¡± King Her father said calmly. The princess had only to desires in life, to explore the vast world and to fall in love. She truly cares for her kingdom, but she will not lower herself to be used as a bargaining chip and marry someone she does not love. ¡°Father I have said before, marrying a stranger will only make me sad not happy.¡± Princess ¡°Love will come with time. Now go prepare yourself for your fianc¨¦s visit, he will be here before dinner. I will lock you in your room if I must.¡± King ¡°Sorry Hikari, please see this from our side.¡± Queen The king and queen left the princesses room locking the door as they leave. The princess flopped down onto her bed exhausted from the argument. She knew the real issue was pride. When a dragon threatened a small village on the outskirts of the Mechius Kingdom, the king refused to send soldiers to fight it, in response the village paid mercenaries to fight it. The soldiers though came and killed the dragon at the last moment and even took the credit for it and hushed the villagers that protested. ¡°Ugh I hate thinking about that. Anyway I¡¯ve got to prepare for my departure, this will likely be one of the few chances I get.¡± Hikari Today is the 17th birthday of Hikari Soreha, Second Princess of the Mechius Kingdom. Because of this there is a party being held in celebration and the guards are very alert to intruders, but not escapees. Which is why this is her only chance to escape. ¡°I have reached the Sixth Level in Light magic and have achieved Intermediate Understanding in my use of the rapier, so there is little room for me to improve in those areas without gaining real life experience. I can also learn a whole host of life lessons in the outside world.¡± The average person usually reaches the Third Level magic in the respective affinity and the average soldier usually reaches Basic Understanding in Battle Arts. This shows that Hikari is a talent in both these fields and capable of fighting off a number of everyday threats along with numerous soldiers or bandits. ¡°For this fated day I have saved up enough money to last me a year and learnt the necessary skills for wilderness survival, all so I can find my fated one.¡± Hikari She began to blush as she imagined the meeting between her and her beloved. ¡°Now I must escape.¡± Hikari First she changed into basic travelling clothes with a red waist coat made of Iron Silk, then put on a blue magicians cloak and then strapped her rapier to her waist. Then she moved to her closet and removed a back panel pulling out a mound of rope, she then hooked one end over her window sill and threw the other end out of the window. Climbing down from the second floor took only a few minutes once down she unhooked her rope and hid it in a bush to hide her escape. Moving along the shadows of the buildings she eventually reached a side gate to the palace undetected and cast a sleep spell on the two guards, before slipping past and heading down the road with a grin on her face. ¡°Now I can achieve all of my dreams like swimming with a mermaid, petting catkin, singing with an elf and riding dragons.¡± Hikari Exclaimed happily. Whilst humming to herself she bumped into someone and fell to the ground. ¡°Kyaa, sorry I was caught up in my thoughts.¡± Hikari A young man of similar age to Hikari stood up, he had thick black hair and wore a contrasting white vest and cloak and carried seven different weapons on his person. There were a spear, bow, staff, whip, katana, knife and long sword. ¡°Me to, I was kind of spaced out.¡± The young man replied, extending a helping hand. Taking his hand Hikari stood up and looked over the young man and was intrigued by his array of weapons. ¡°Umm¡­ could you tell me why you carry seven different weapons, aren¡¯t they all cumbersome altogether?¡± Hikari ¡°If you place them in the right place, they are barely noticeable. As for why I carry so many, it¡¯s because I like having a choice in weapons.¡± Young Man ¡®Is he mad? At most people carry three weapons and often the third is a knife so it¡¯s not really noticeable. And the amount of time you would have to spend on learning Battle Arts for each weapon would be monstrous. ¡°Well I¡¯ve got to get going. Take care.¡± Young Man ¡°What an odd fellow. Well anyway I should probably get to the Adventures Guild and sign up, then make a quest leaving to another city.¡± Hikari Young Man¡¯s POV This report is so annoying. ¡°Guild Master, next time don¡¯t make me drag along a burden. Because of them it took me two extra days to complete the quest.¡± Young Man ¡°Please understand I was trying to make your life easier.¡± Guild Master ¡°I can appreciate that really, but these guys were nobles, you should know how annoying they can be.¡± Hello my name is Ezax, no family name. I am a Half Dragoon Half Human and have a dragon link, but their a little annoying, I turned 16 last month. I just returned from a subjugation quest for a Blade Bear. Unfortunately a group of nobles tagged along as well, and none of them had any fighting experience, couldn¡¯t even use their Battle Arts properly, useless. ¡°Hahaha, that attitude is why I like you Ezax and that you¡¯re a fast learner, I mean to learn seven different weapons and magic, truly incredible.¡± Guild Master This isn¡¯t the first time he¡¯s stated this and it¡¯s always a precursor to some annoying quest. ¡°What do you want Guild Master?¡± Ezax said dryly. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it isn¡¯t anything hard. Just a bodyguard quest for a rich girl. She¡¯s paying 100 gold coins for passage to the next city!¡± Guild Master ¡°Why me? If it isn¡¯t hard then why can¡¯t you just throw this to someone else? Surely there are many A rank teams jumping at this.¡± Ezax Guild members are divided by rank as well as quests. This is to ensure that a complete beginner doesn¡¯t go off and fight a dragon. The ranks go from Rank H to Rank AA, then it goes Rank S,SS,SSS and ends with Rank X. The usual payment for an A rank quest is 100 gold coins, this is reflective of how dangerous the quest is. Thing is though the monsters around this area aren¡¯t that strong, at most the are C rank threats. This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. ¡°Ezax, if you accomplish this you¡¯ll be paid a bonus of 200 gold. There aren¡¯t any A rankers in at the moment and you are the only S rank around at the moment. Plus she is being pursued by an Intermediate Master, none of the other ranks could handle it anyway.¡± Guild Master ¡°Well that is a legitimate reason, but what¡¯s the catch?¡± Ezax He¡¯s never been so desperate for me to take a quest before, even when he has it¡¯s been for personal reasons. Surprisingly enough he is from a High Noble family himself, he only works for the guild because of the interesting people. ¡°I can¡¯t tell you Ezax, but this is a matter of life and death as well as my job.¡± Guild Master It doesn¡¯t seem like he¡¯s lying and it would be bothersome if he¡¯s replaced with someone else. ¡°Fine I¡¯ll do it, but I want a month paid leave.¡± Ezax ¡°Two weeks.¡± Guild Master ¡°One month, I¡¯m not going down.¡± Ezax ¡°Fine, a month of paid leave.¡± Guild Master Grumbling he hands me the quest contract and tells me to wait in guild room one. This room is for strategising before you head out on a quest, as well as holding sensitive meetings. Now on my own my dragon makes his thoughts known. ¡®Master why did you accept this boring quest? You should have found another dragon to fight, something to get my blood going.¡¯ Dragon 1 Indeed get to have this fellow voice his opinion at any time of the day and to top it off there are a further six dragons that reside within me. Unlike other Dragoons who have one link I have seven. This has only made my life harder, for example each of them have their own preference in weapons, hence why I carry and master seven different weapons at once. The one that just spoke is Tiamat, he¡®s a battle maniac and the one who told me to learn the bow. ¡®Don¡¯t bother Master, this quest can¡¯t be ignored. If the Guild Master is replaced it will make Masters life harder.¡¯ Dragon 2 This is Brionac, he is a workaholic. The only one of them with a serious attitude for that matter, he chose prefers the whip. ¡®Brionac is right, beside what fun is there to be had in fighting? Isn¡¯t peace the best master?¡¯ Dragon 3 This is Typhon, he is the only dragon who loves peace because he holds no interest in fighting. His preference is the spear because if used correctly you can end the fight easily and quickly. ¡®Shut up, you Peacepoon! Don¡¯t you know that a man needs a fight every once in a while.¡¯ Tiamat ¡®Fighting is for idiots who can¡¯t come to an agreement. You only end up getting hurt¡¯ Typhon ¡®You¡¯re just a coward!¡¯ Tiamat And here we go again, there is at least one argument a day. Thankfully though there is someone who puts a stop to it. ¡®Tiamat, stop starting fights! Nee-sans going to be angry.¡¯ Dragon 4 This is Leviathan, the one that thankfully keeps the peace. She was the one who told me to wield a magic staff because of her interest in magic. ¡®Sorry¡­¡¯ Tiamat With the commotion over they go back to resting, the last quest was rather tiresome as their were close to a hundred Blade Bears. After an hour of waiting the Guild Master finally shows up, alongside him is the white haired girl from earlier. ¡°Sorry for the wait Ezax.¡± Guild Master ¡°Ah! It¡¯s the odd fellow!¡± Hikari points at me. What did she just call me? Our only interaction involved bumping into one another. ¡®Master just kick her arse!¡¯ Tiamat ¡®You, shut up.¡¯ Ezax ¡°Hikari, you already know one another?¡± Guild Master ¡°No we only met today, when we bumped into one another. Anyway Uncle why did you call a boy like him? I already said I want the strongest escort, he¡®s at most C rank.¡± Hikari Well she¡¯s blunt. Spending three days escorting her is going to be a pain in the arse. ¡°He¡¯s the only S rank in the city, Ezax show her your ID.¡± Guild Master Taking it, Hikari gives it an odd look then returns it and asks me a question. ¡°Do you have spatial storage?¡± Hikari I nod. Spatial storage is a magic enchantment that can be applied to jewellery, that will allow you to store multiple items within a pocket dimension instead of carrying them out in the open. This enchantment can increase the pieces worth massively, especially if you apply the improved enchantment Time Spatial Storage. Mine is a weak storage enchantment I use to hold potions and food. ¡°Alright then I will accept him. Thank you Uncle for the help.¡± Hikari ¡°Don¡¯t sweat it sweetie, I¡¯d do anything for cute niece.¡± Guild Master With that we left the Guild Hall without any further delay and headed for the city gate. As we leave we are asked for our ID, turns out this girl is D rank, which means she has a little bit of skill despite her young age. As we walk away I notice her looking a little nervous and checking behind us quite often. ¡°You don¡¯t need to be so worried, until we get away from the presence of the city the monsters will be pretty weak. You should be able to handle most of them.¡± Ezax ¡°I know that! I¡¯m worried about pursuers.¡± Hikari snaps at me. ¡°I¡¯ve been meaning to ask about that, am I allowed to kill your pursuers or would that only lead to further trouble?¡± Ezax After some deep thinking she gives a shallow nod, but doesn¡¯t look to pleased with the idea. It is soon after this that I see an entire regiment of soldiers, lead by general it seems, standing 20 metres before us. Hikari seeing this quickly gets behind me. ¡®Tiamat prepare yourself¡¯ Ezax I prepare my bow as the leader steps forward. ¡°Please hand her over, if you don¡¯t I can¡¯t guarantee your safety.¡± The General states calmly. ¡°Could you tell me why?¡± Ezax Goddamn this guy is strong, even I¡¯m hesitant. Why the does he want the girl? ¡°The girl behind you is the Second Princess of Mechius, Hikari Soreha!¡± General ¡­Come again, does he mean to say this bratty girl is royalty. Does that mean the Guild Master is royalty, that bastard! I¡¯ll give him a piece of my mind after this. ¡°Today is her 17th birthday as well as an engagement party for her and the Prince of Albace.¡± The General states calmly again. So she¡¯s running away, that explains why she was so edgy. ¡°Question, how much compensation do I get for handing her over? I¡¯ve been promised 300 gold coins to escort her away.¡± Ezax ¡°The nerve, for a commoner to demand money from us!¡± The General now yells, he¡¯s clearly a snobbish noble, can¡¯t be trusted. ¡°We¡¯ll give you 50 gold coins, that¡¯s more than enough.¡± General ¡°Please don¡¯t hand me over.¡± Hikari pleads. ¡°Wait here.¡± Ezax I put away my bow and walk forward and hold out my hand. ¡°The payment?¡± ¡°You¡¯ll get your payment in the afterlife!¡± The general yells as he draws his sword aiming for my neck. I figured he act like this, hence why I stood in my stance and drew my katana faster than him and cut off his left leg, before backing up. Everyone here is stunned at what they saw, I take this chance to pull my bow and add a fire enchantment to my arrow. ¡°Foolish noble, your lie was so predictable.¡± Ezax ¡°Everyone ch¡­¡± I don¡¯t give the general the chance to finish his command and place my arrow in his forehead, there isn¡¯t any blood though thanks to the enchantment. ¡°I feel it¡¯s necessary for me to tell you that I can do away with all of you in about five seconds.¡± Ezax They seem to pay my warning little attention. ¡°Everyone form the water fortress formation.¡± Random officer As they move about and start casting their spell I fire another of my own into their centre, before they could do anything it exploded in a massive fire ball sending them all flying around. ¡°Princess let¡¯s go.¡± Ezax She like the others were, is stunned so I threw her over my shoulder and ran for the hills. It seems that the alarm was set off sooner than she had hoped, this also means that the cavalry should be along soon, but the Guild Master predicted this and got me rapped up in this, after all a B rank wouldn¡¯t be able to do anything in this situation. ¡°Princess snap out of it already!¡± I shout at her. ¡°It¡¯s pointless the emergency bell has been rung, we¡¯ll never be able to out run them.¡± She mumbles to herself. ¡°Are you really so weak willed, why did you ever bother running away in the first place?¡± I once again shout. ¡°No I don¡¯t want to marry him.¡± She weakly says. I slap her, if she gets caught I¡¯m gonna end up wanted across the kingdom. Still though there is little response. ¡°Ah come one! What¡¯s your dream, you¡¯ve got to have one?¡± Ezax ¡°I want to see the world through my own eyes, not through a book. I want to swim with mermaids. I want to pet a beastkin and sing with an elf! I want to ride a dragon!¡± Hikari declares. ¡®Brionac answer my call!¡¯ I call to Brionac and before us a sky blue dragon with sharp blue eyes appears, this once again shocks Hikari. ¡°Well you can mark off one of your dreams then. These are the first steps of your new life, you have to decide if you will stumble and not get back up or if you charge forward and claim what you want and move forward!¡± I tell her. ¡°A dragon?¡­ You¡¯re a Dragoon?¡± She asks. ¡°I am not pure blood, but I¡¯ve still got a link. Now are going to step towards your future or return to your past?¡± I say. This is likely the most annoying job I¡¯ve taken. ¡°Please let me ride it!! I¡¯ve wanted to ride a dragon for ages!¡± She suddenly springs to life. I lift her up in a princess carry and climb on Brionacs back. ¡°Brionac lets go!¡± I command. ¡°Yes master!¡± With a strong response we lift off. This is the beginning of our journey, where we will see the world. The moon shines down upon us in a warm embrace, marking the start of our adventure. Chapter 1:This kind of princess!!!! author note:sorry for my bad grammar,i still try to learn it. after 1 night flight,we have make quite distance and i pretend to go west so they won''t follow us,still the nearest city is still 2 days away.i have 7 dragons but only 4 of them could fly,only brionac is the one who willing to fly at anytime.beside it will be a huge uproar if i summon it carelessly.The nearest city was a port city, after i get my payment, i will return and beat him up. "Princess wake up."(Ezax) she still sleeping,still she should enough has enough sleep,and i will be fine as long i sleep today.i pull her a cheek. "It hurts!!"(Hikari) as she wake up,she fall to the ground ,i am to jump to the dragon then go to talk with brionac. "Good job ,brionac you can go rest now."(Ezax) "Yes master!"(Brionac) after that he vanish slowly,become an ice ball and go inside my body.when i turn to check the princess condition she was pouting. "Can you treat me more nicely?i am girl you know!!"(Hikari) "I don''t give a damn.i only requested to protect you not to take care of you."(Ezax) I am not womanizer nor has any interest with girl,because all of them are annoying.the only girl i would protect is only my little sister who stayed with my mom on dragoon kingdom.as i say that she look around?this is must be the first time for her. "Where is this?"(Hikari) "Goblin forest,this is the forest located east from our kingdom.if we can pass it then we will arrive at Els port which is the city that connect with many continent."(Ezax) she surprised and shocked at the same time,then she ask me. "You say it is goblin forest right?"(Hikari) "yeah,beside goblin is weak creature ,even you can defeat it i guarantee it."(Ezax) then she shout with anger. "NONONONONO,IF you were defeated then there is huge chance......i will...."(Hikari) she blushing?ah i understand.she is kinda funny and i can''t hold myself. "Hahahahaha,princess we are having miss understanding here."(Ezax) "eh?"(Hikari) she shocked,i forget she is noble, so she doesn''t know about this. "Goblin won''t rape you,same as the orc .they can only mate with each other so they don''t have any interest with us.beside even if it is real there is no way they take interest in your flat body."(Ezax) Yes she is beautiful even i admit it,still she doesn''t have any woman appeal.still to mistake goblin will rape her it is so funny. "I am still growing okay!but won''t goblin attack us?"(Hikari) "Don''t worry ,goblin is a small race,beside they won''t come near us because i am here."(Ezax) Not all goblin is carnivore ,some of them is herbivore.in this forest goblin is herbivore but i can''t guarantee we won''t be attacked because goblin like silk so i intimidate them with my aura.what''s more this is dragon aura so they will mistake me as dragon,there is no sane goblin that would attack a dragon.even the princess should know it. "i forgot you are dragoon.still why you here?aren''t dragoon a high prided race?they don''t even willing to trade with other races nor giving other races a face."(Hikari) "What you say were right,but first i was half breed,second i was kicked out when i was 9 years old.so you can think i am human."(Ezax) it is because i can''t summon dragon thought.my sister can summon it so she was accepted as dragoon.i kinda want to meet that little sis again one day. "Now we will eat,after that we walk through the forest."(Ezax) all of my dragon should be hungry right now.before they begin asking i better eat.beside this forest should have plenty of fish and fruit.still if she was attacked and killed it wouldn''t be a joke.so i will take out ingredients from my storage .i take out some meat and vegetable enough for seven people.seeing this princess eyes glittering. "So you will cook for me?"(Hikari) "No,this is for myself.you cook for yourself."(Ezax) The spatial time ring can store a food but i only buy ingredient because with that it will be cheaper.because there are 7 stomach i need to fill.she then begin to pout.and give me cold shoulder.well time to cook.i make some flames and do some barbecue. after i cook and eat the food.i heard their satisfaction. "I am full ,thanks for the food!!"(Tiamat) "Master,thank you for the food."(Brionac) "Thanks master,i can''t thinking with empty stomach."(Typhon) "Master,thanks for feeding."(leviathan) the other three still silent.well one of them still tired because i need to clean the nest of blade bear,the other 2 still don''t open their heart with me ,but they will help me if i am on pinch. "Hikari ,are you finished yet?"(Ezax) as i went to her sides.the wood still left. it means she failed to lit a fire. "WUAHHH!!! i hate cooking !!!"(Hikari) at the same time her stomach grumble,well i kinda expect this. "IF you can''t cook then tell me,i will cook for you."(Ezax) "Really,why don''t you say it earlier?i know you are Kind man!!!"(Hikari) of course not,such a free thing in this world doesn''t exist. "Then how much will you pay me?Let me tell you i am not cheap."(Ezax) she stop moving then she shout!!this little girl she shout to many times. This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there. "Is that what you say to me a beautiful girl?you should be happy for me to eat your commoner food."(Hikari) "If you don''t pay then i won''t make you some food.i don''t care you are beautiful or not,i don''t care you are commoner or not ,if you willing to pay me then i will work."(Ezax) She is holding her anger,then she take out a piece of gold coin from her storage.looks she her hunger won over her anger.well this is how world works.after i take the money i cook her some food she is satisfied with it.after that we walk through the forest.she often complain like this. "Spider !!!"(Hikari) she is afraid of spider..no all kind of bug.why can''t she bear with it?this is not the castle she live in. "I am tired!!!"(Hikari) she lack of stamina but what''s more annoying is this. "Why we don''t ride dragon anyway?all we see is tree and tree!!!"(Hikari) that''s why i hate nobles,all of them only complain.if she wasn''t my client i will tie her at nearby tree and let her be killed. "Shut!!all of you do is complain!!if you don''t like it then don''t run away from your home!!"(Ezax) "I don''t want marry a person i don''t love!!!i want to have an happy life!!!Beside aren''t you a man that was paid by uncle?why you act so highly!learn your place commoner!!!"(Hikari) i take out my knife then i go behind her and point at her neck.she is silent can''t speak anything.i show her killing intent on her. "IF you keep complain,i will kill you.Princess first let me tell you ,i will only protect you not babysitting you.Second,i hate you royalty more then noble,all of you doing are looking down us,so don''t order me around.third if you get on my nerve i will kill you,in the outside world it will be easy to dispose you.if you understand nod your head."(Ezax) i back to my previous position,of course this is difference between our ability let me do this,i need to endure another 2 days.such a thing is pain.she doesn''t speak or moving .she must be afraid a normal girl can''t do anything.maybe i will wait for a moment until she knows. "AMAZING!!!!!!!!!You are so amazing!!!''(Hikari) .......ha????is she broken? "I can''t even see your footwork!!!!what''s more your tone!!!Kyaa ,it was so manly!!! you are really an S rank adventurer."(Hikari) she shout enthusiastic m did some screw fall from her head?still why is like this i will try to silence her again!i draw out my katana and act like slice her but stop before her neck.now she become silent?now will you learn your place? "WOW,A MITHRIL WEAPON,what''s more THIS IS PURE BLUE MITHRIL!!!!YOU ARE AWESOME!!!''(Hikari) her eys shine brightly like a child found her toy. the fuck,is her brain okay.

"master ,just kidnap her and sell her as slave after you get your payment,that way you will got you more money and don''t break your reputation."(leviathan) IF you cancel your quest,it will recorded to guild card,and if you cancel it three times in a year,you will be demoted from work for 6 months which is considered half a year.that''s why if i got it will finish it.because we don''t know the time the quest will be to hard to us. "No,one-chan!!don''t be evil!!"(Childish dragon) this is my fifth dragon,Kulshedra ,she is the one who told me to use knifes,she is also the reason i don''t become complete scum,if i has a child like her,i swore i won''t let any sadness happen at her.she is dragon that doesn''t like innocence killing.because she is the youngest she call other with oni-chan or one-chan as she says so. "If little sister says that,i will comply."(leviathan) after that we talk a bit,of course outside i remain quiet until i see main road,and Princess started to running on her own again! "Hey wait!!!"(Ezax) as i chase her she stop in front of horse carriage which was used to carry crops or food for lifestock.when i arrived she ask me "Hey,ezax what''s is this?"(Hikari) "This is an horse carriage.you know a thing that pulled by horse."(Ezax) did she never seen it before?well she is princess maybe she just forgot about it. "The horse carriage, i know is different.outside world sure is fun...i never know this kind of carriage exist.''(Hikari) her eyes kinda lonely,oh yeah it remind me,the princess never appear in public,the 17th birthday party was to show her in front of public,but she ran away,she must be shut in her room or castle,well consider the foolish king which made me near kill him,this is pretty light thought. "...hey Ezax?can you fix it?"(Hikari) "Sure ,i can but we don''t have horse to pull in so we don''t need to fi-"(Ezax) suddenly i got an idea,this will be a good item for me to make her silent. "Okay wait a bit.i will fix it."(Ezax) i take out some tools and wood from my spatial storage ring and fix it.after 2 hours it finish. "Ride it first,if it is completely fine then i will call my dragon and pull it."(Ezax) "See ,ezax you can be a nice man if you try ,okay i will ride it!!"(Hikari) as she ride,i take out some rope,when she already sit,i tied her at the same time.her face shocked but she immediately become blush. "what?..don''t tell me you finally given to your desire!!because i am beautiful girl."(Hikari) HELL NOOO,if i want to rape girl like you !! then my mind will be the one who will broken!! "IT is my first,so please be gentle okay."(HIkari) AND YOU TOO SOON TO GIVE UP,ignore her i take out some clothes and silent her with it,after that i pull the carriage,it is light compared to my weapons. "MMMMM!!!MMMMM!!!"(Hikari) "Shut it!!you don''t have women appeal at all i am not interested in you!!"(Ezax) then she like that for a while but after an hour,she finally learn that it is useless.her eyes wandered,looks she is happy.finally it is silent enough.is what i thought it doesn''t even last 10 minutes. "PRINCESS,FINALLY I FOUND YOU!!"(Female knight) here we goes again another problem.....god can you give me a peace?if you give me peace i swore i will donate 1 gold for the church in the city i stay.for me 7 dragon is already enough You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author. back to present. "I will kill you!I will never forgive you for kidnapping princess!!!!!!!"(Female knight) She draw my sword,then i feel Princess stare at me.it is like she told me to not kill her,well i consider not to kill her anyway.because from her relationship with princess she must be a noble,it will be a disaster if i chased by soldier when i comeback.so i draw my knife. "Kulshedra,lent my your lighting,the minimum one,i don''t wish to kill her."(Ezax) "Yes."(Kulshedra) as i finished speaking ,she appear in front of me and aim my neck with her sword,i step back,she really want to kill me isn''t it?well her killing intent is obvious,i dodge by step back it is only one step but it is enough.she immediately use her battle art. "Iron tackle!!"(Female knight) she use her ability well,iron tackle is basic battle arts,its level only knowing,but its effect is quite good.i defend it then as pushed back she aim at her neck.if am only B rank adventurer ,i will be death,but i am not so parry it with my knife,immediately her voice head. "what?"(Female) "Sorry,it will be hurt a little.''(Ezax) as i pour some lighting to my knife,so i could paralyze her through our sword,but she immediately release her sword and try to kick me.but still she is rather naive,immediately i spun my knife and paralyze her leg.she immediately fall to the ground.she try to grab her sword,but i immediately kick it away.then i point on her neck. "I lost?(Female knight) She is quite good,Her physical ability is only C rank,but her ability at par the same as B rank,if she train more she will be B rank adventurer,in another 5 years,she will be S rank adventurer maybe more than that ,because her instinct is good.if princess is brain type,then she is instinct type, "Stand up,Ezax,is genuine A rank adventurer,you should be proud to fight him this long."(Hikari) for the first time she is act like princess,then i sheath my knife and the knight stand up. then she bow to her princess. "I am sorry ,princess."(Female knight) looks like she isn''t noble,but a knight of Princess.her ability is great. "Eliza,i consider you as my friend so please don''t call me that.beside i am not princess anymore."(Hikari) "But princess!!"(Eliza) "There is no but,Eliza say sorry to him,he is the one who help me.i want you to understood that."(Hikari) she become more guilty about it,looks like my misunderstanding was cleared,i just hope she won''t follow her princess.because to me she is a loyal pure girl. suddenly i feel killing intent from the side of forest.a group of bandit?then i see a arrow from the forest.it was aiming at the Female knight. "watch out!!"(Ezax) as i catch arrow with both of my hands i throw it to the archer from afar. "Ezax,are you fine?"(Hikari) "Hey spoiled princess,cast defensive spell,this bandit is a pain."(Ezax) i take out my spear. "Typhon,are you ready?"(Ezax) "yeah."(Typhoon) immediately a group of bandit of 15 people come out from the forest. "How dare you to kill my minion!!I will show you as the red spider boss!"(Bandit boss) Dragon magic,Tornado spear!!! i created a giant spear made of wind,it spin at great speed as i aim with my spear.i aim at them then i thrust my spear as the act to fire spear.immediately the spear fired and kill all of them in single shot.well they must be scared so they can''t move.as the spear kill them it become red colors and keep going for a while after that i left a trace that won''t be gone for a while,only the tree on its way is destroyed.then from beside of its path stood a single bandit who shivered.i go to him as i show him killing intent. "If you learn lesson,then now go.next time you did this again i won''t let you stay alive, and if you speak any of this information,i will kill you.remember that."(Ezax) i need him to stay silent,with this the next time i pass this road i won''t be attacked,but there is another reason i did this.i hate to kill other people.well i keep it secret from all of dragons though .because i didn''t like scent of blood. i come back to them. "Good job,for defeating bandit,as expected you are more amazing than your rank say."(Hikari) literally,i am S rank.well if i say it,she will be more annoying,so i keep silent.then suddenly. "MASTER,LET ME BE YOUR DISCIPLE!!!"(Eliza) ................the fuck?she do dogeza and then she said "Now i understand!!! Why princess choose to go with you!!Your are the knight of the knight !!!To protect me who just an enemy from before who want to take your life,what''s more your you let the bandit alive,so he will change your life!!!Please,let me be your disciple!!"(Eliza) wait ,wait ,waIT!!! "hey,i don''t protect you!it is because the arrow aim was hikari you know!!beside i left the bandit so they won''t attack me again,all i am doing is for myself!!''(Ezax) but she ignored it.and praise me more. "Master!!!Your big heart moved me!!my eyes isn''t wrong!!PLEASE,LET ME ELIZA BE YOUR DISCIPLE!!!"(Eliza) as i seek help from her.hikari only give me thumbs up. "Well,once she set her mind to do something,she won''t give up,beside it is kinda lonely to only have two of us in one party.so just let her join,beside you finally called my name!! after this two days,so you accept me!!"(Hikari) .............i see,she isn''t princess....SHE IS THE DEVIL WHO BRING ME MISFORTUNE,OH god,i will give you half of my wealth,just please let me part with this two girls!!!!! Chapter 3:Agreement and conditions "You sure are lucky,if we took different path ,we won''t meet each other."(Hikari) Hah,yesterday sure hell,i got another burden here.what''s more she wants to become student.what a pain.i just want to have a peaceful day.just another 3 hours ,and i can be parted with them. "Yes,princess ,i know i am lucky to meet princess and master."(Eliza) Hikari then puffed her chest.like she proud of it. "My eyes never wrong!When we first met i know he is awesome!"(Hikari) Hah?I think you what you say is exactly different. "Yes ,princess really have good eye on people."(Eliza) "Eliza,call me hikari!I am not princess anymore,i am Adventurer hikari!!"(Hikari) She is really to positive,doesn''t she know being adventurer is harder than she though?I would say a thousand adventurer being killed everyday. "But..."(Eliza) "No,but eliza beside aren''t we friend?"(Hikari) "Yes,hikari-san."(Eliza) They are really good friend,still she is a funny princess for sure.what kind of princess that doesn''t use it position.still i hate her attitude. "Master,Why you bring seven kind of weapons?"(Eliza) Why everyone keep asking that?don''t they have another thing to do?But hikari explain instead and eliza pays attetion on her.good at least she is useful at this time.but her next word shock me. "He is also a half dragoon,half human which allows him to has a dragon."(Hikari) .......YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!I TOLD YOU NOT TO TOLD ANYONE!!! "But isn''t dragoon can''t cast magic?it is clearly he cast magic yeaterday."(Eliza) "Don''t worry about it,she is just day dreaming,dragoon is prideful race there is no way they willing to come here."(Ezax) It is true ,but i am half and half.still i don''t want anyone knows about it.no i hate to be known as half dragoon. "ugh.You musn''t lie like that to your party member."(Hikari) "Eh,master is she told the truth?"(Eliza) "Who knows?"(Hikari) She puffed her cheek.I swore i gonna kill this little girl someday!! "All ,i heard was"Mom ,Seria please be safe."(Hikari) "You also day dream that!!"(Ezax) "Master ,who is this Elena girl?Is she master''s lover?"(Eliza) "Why i must explain it?We will part soon as soon we arrive on city."(Ezax) I dodging the question.There is no need to tell them any futher.all the dragon was sleeping.because they are like me feel stressed.i envy them because they can sleep at time like this. "I already say didn''t i ?I will party with you?or you want me to tell everyone you are half dragoon?"(Hikari) " i refuse!!remember the reason i go with you because your uncle request !!Not because i want to party with you!!"(Ezax) My tone become harsh.my limit has already passed.i go shout at them. "You to Eliza!!Stop calling me master!!I won''t accept anyone nor i care!!That''s it so don''t bother me!!all of you are a pain!!"(Ezax) Eliza ,was pushed back then she bow. "....sorry,master if i am burden to you.But please let me follow you!!i want to get stronger.!"(Eliza) Princess become angry at me. "Eliza,You don''t need to say sorry.Ezax?Why you act like a jerk!!"(Hikari) "What?ask me to act like good prince in story?Such a thing never exist reality!Stop your daydreaming you failure princess!one more thing if you keep talking about half dragoon I WILL KILL YOU!You should know i can easily kill you!"(Ezax) She was taken a back for a moment,and i heard she grit her teeth.we keep walking but there is no voice.there is only silent until we arrive on the city. The port city..Marquere I go to the guild which is the same as the contract says.They of course followed me.when we enter their gazes fall on us.some of them give a weird look,hostility,jealous ,and many the rest.But only this was obvius.well this is the guild master of this guild. "Ah,Zax-san."(Guild leader?) "Yo,Elina san.I want to report quest about this."(Ezax) She is the guild master of this guild also known as Red grim reaper elina.she is stronger than me.She never told me her rank though.as i handed the quest contract she begin to read it.some of them whisper about me.of course i add some notes to quest contract "I see,Zax san,please go to guild room number 1 to get your payment from Belz .while both of you go to guild room number 2 .We need to talk a bit."(Elina) I nod,belz is guild master which gives me this annoying quest.now i can part with them. I also can angry at him.when i arrived he is already waiting.As usual he is a lot faster than me...Don''t know what kind transportation he use to arrive this soon. "Ezax,how is your journey?Well from your expression it didn''t go well."(Guild master) "Thanks to your shit!!Anyway where is my payment?i will return to the that kingdom after this.."(Ezax) It isn''t like i get any linger attachment to it.It is because it is the easiest kingdom i know to live. "Here is your payment,but if i were you i won''t return though ,because you were branded as criminal there ."(Guild master) As he handed me a small bag full gold.i was thinking How,i am pretty sure kill all the soldier.wait...don''t tell me it is on porpose.wel only one person knows about this incident other than me and princess. "Explain to me uncle,why you did that?"(Ezax) "Who knows,perhaps to help my beloved niece."(Guild master) "you tricky fox,So you already predict she want to party with me?"(Ezax) This shitty uncle.if you are not my saviour i will kill you!! Stolen novel; please report. "Pretty much,i already expect her to do that.if not i will force her on you.this is the best outcome i could think."(Guild master) "I refuse."(Ezax) "If you refuse,i will tell everyone here.uour bounty is pretty high you know?well i didn''t give any of them picture?What will you if i given the kingdom picture?And spread all of it?"(Guild master) So this is a threat. "I better life as criminal,then go to outside continent!You should know why i hate outside world !"(Ezax) "Ezax,This is your father wish before he is dying."(Guild master) "I don''t about that idiot father,who married from different race,which made me my childhood bleak."(Ezax) Then he sigh for a moment.after that he take out quest contract. "Think this as request from me,if you traver with her to achieve her dream i will give you a payment you never considered."(Guild master) "Huh?No matter what i refuse!!"(Ezax) "Even if its payment to dragoon continent?"(Guild master.) Hah,I stop but how is it possible?To get in dragoon continent such a thing is impossible because the continent is protect by mist only dragon could go near it.still how the hell he come with this?If you don''t pay you will be severely punished.his punishment he will be stripped from guild master position.he is not a man that willing to take a risk. "How about it?I promise you will arrive safely.If you want you also can live with your sister and your mother."(Guild master) "One question.Why you do this much for your niece?"(Ezax) I don''t understand,She is just a niece what''s more in this age sibling relationship in noble life can be considered very bad. "If i answer will you accept this quest and don''t tell anyone about this?"(Guild master) "Sure."(Ezax) "Don''t be suprised ..because i am the real king of that kingdom,the queen and the king is my minion."(Guild master) ......what.....the....fu...ck?DOES THAT MEAN SHE IS YOUR DAUGHTER?SUCH A THING IS MORE IMPOSSIBLE THAN SUN THAT RISE FROM WEST. "Guild master are you daydreaming?"(Ezax) just to make sure. "I am deadly serious here."(Guild master) ".Well i did pay the current king and current queen,beside i pretty want her to have an happy lifet.but never expect her to be like this.A girl that run from home!Hahaha!!"(Guild master) ........no....there is a bit resemblance.still the reason he do this must be because he like to live this.but now i am more worried about the kingdom.maybe my meeting with Eliza was intended?well if it is him then that is possible.still if i can meet my family again.i will be party with them. "Master,just accept it.you want to meet them again don''t you?"(Tiamat) Tiamat..even you.. "Master,it is okay.we hold back please do what you want master."(Brionac) "Master,it will be a good way ,beside master can get knowing how strong you need to enter dragoon continent."(Typhon) brionac and typhoon... "I will go wherever master go,so i will support you."(Leviathan) "Master,choose yes."(Kulshedra) fine if all of you suggest this i gonna agree.. "Fine,If i can reunite with mother this is a cheap thing to do .but i have conditions.(Ezax) "Let''s hear you conditions first."(Guild master) "I want them to listen to me,i don''t need them to listen completely but overall.do you understand uncle?"(Ezax) if they act like this they will die,i want them to understood that much,if he won''t accept this conditions than i will refuse. "Okay,it is deal.the quest will ends after she tells me that she already achieved her dreams.I hope you take care of her "(Guild master) "Yes,uncle!"(Ezax) Narrator POV guild room number 2 while the guys was discuss about things to do. the girls has a happy chat. "Hoo?Ezax get pissed off? you sure has guts hikari-san."(Elina) "But what i say was the truth!!"(Hikari) "Still what did you do?to get ezax that angry?"(Elina) Elina,knows him pretty well,ezax is someone that rarely angry for trivial matter.even in a year he will be angry like 3 times or 4 times. "I only tell Eliza,That he is half dragoon and half human!His mood suddenly become bad!!"(Hikari) "Hikari,thanks him later for not kill you.at least he hates killing if not you already corpse right now!!''(Elina) Elina since chat was always smile,but her face become serious in an instant. "Is it taboo word for master?"(Eliza) "It isn''t just taboo,you already considered lucky.for knowing his race a guild was completely obliterated.Once a man mock him being half ,the next day his head was found at the spring in the middle of city.Hikari,if you want to go with him you mustn''t tell anyone!!!This time he let you go because you are his client.if you tell another person than he will kill you!This is warning remember that!(Elina) "Shouldn''t he be proud of being dragoon?"(Hikari) "I don''t know myself,the only one know the reason was him.so you better not asking about it nor ask us."(Elina) silent sweep across the room ,then elina continued. "Now the agreement should be over,let''s check if he is willing."(Elina) ".yes.."(Hikari) Hikari heard dragoon was prideful race,still Ezax not even a bit has it...did he hate dragoon that much?she must think a way so ezax willing to tell her.because she wants to know more about dragoon. Chapter 4:A crazy girl. As i meet them again.I only can give up on fate. "For time being i will stick with you princess,i hope we can get along."(Ezax) Suddenly she point at me with solemn tone. "Ezax,let me ask you question.answer this honestly.do you accept us because for the reward not because you want it?."(Hikari) I will lie about that.i hope at least she can see throught this lie. "Of course not ,princess.It is because i-"(Ezax) "Tell me the reason ,If you tell another lie!!I will refuse to party with you."(Hikari) "Master,please answer this honestly."(Eliza) .....At last The princess got some brains....Eliza,maybe doesn''t notice it if hikari doesn''t point on it. "It is because you are a burde-"(Ezax) ignoring she take the quest contract and read it. "Your reward is transport to dragoon continent.your reward is very good because dragoon continent is the only continent that is isolated.now i know the reason you party with us."(Hikari) as she finished reading she face me. "Because you can go home right?you want to live as prideful dragoon not as human."(Hikari) i don''t care about that.i just want to meet my family.just get to main point. "Looks like i am wrong.your expression did''t waver nor change.is it your mother?or your father?."(Hikari) i realized i shouldn''t tell her that i half dragoon.i should say that i am dragoon.i am an idiot.... "Well ,i don''t care which of it.but forget about it.forget about to live with them ."(Hikari) "Hikari,don''t provoke him any futher!!"(Guild master) "Because you are an half race,there is no way anyone willing to accept you.even if they accept you they only will have dog death!!!"(Hikari) i will kill you!i go to front of her and prepare to cut her head!Keeping you alive will only a problem for me.but before my katana arrived on her neck,i heard the the sixth dragon.... "Master stop it at once!!!"(sixth dragon) i stop,everyone can''t move hikari remain unfazed. The sixth dragon,fafnir he stops me,the dragon that keep me from anger and also more calm than any dragon.the second strongest dragon i has... "Fafnir why you stop him?Girl like that should die!!"(Tiamat) "Fafnir,She already mock master dream,she deserve death."(Brionac) Tiamat is normal,followed by brionac who is angry because my dream mocked. "Fafnir,if we don''t kill her she will do it again.why you don''t know that!!!He knows master secret"(Typhon) Typhon,even choose the same as me. "She dare to mock master,it will be a light punishment by killing her!"(Leviathan) "i will never forgive her,what''s wrong want to be with family!!SHE DOESN''T deserve to live!!"(Kulshedra) Leviathan and kulshedra who is the passive one ,get angry too.it is rare.but fafnir say one sentence. "Do you want master to die?"(Fafnir) I understand his point.i doubt i can survive after i killed her because her dad is far stronger than me.every dragon become silent. "Master,i suggest you sheathe your katana ,hold your anger and cancel the request.there is still many way to return you don''t need to accept this quest.now master should rest at the nearest in and calm down for a moment.if master meet her again today master free to do anything..She is rather special in her own way."(Fafnir) "I know fafnir,thanks for remind me ."(Ezax) "...if master has calm down,then i will continue to sleep."(Fafnir) sleep well Fafnir,if not for you i will be killed by his father.i sheath my katana.then i take the quest contract from her and tear it apart. "I quit with this quest.Uncle search another person."( Ezax) i get out of the door and walked away from the guild to the nearest in then i took rest there. Narrator POV "Hikari-san are you fine?''"(Eliza) "i am fine,knowing the reason it is fair trade."(Hikari) hikari still act cool,what she wants is the reason she wants party with him because he isn''t bad person,this past seven years she already learn how to judge person type,she believed ezax won''t kill her because he isn''t cold blooded.beside he knows he won''t get away it. "Hikari,do you want to die?"(Guild master) "Uncle,if it is because reward he want to party with me,then i don''t want it.i want him to willing to go journey with us.that''s why first i must know about him more."(Hikari) if it because money ,or reward,she can''t trust him .beside he isn''t evil person,he is someone that risk his identify to help her. "What if you died?"(Eliza) "IF i died,then that is the end,but look at the fact now.i am survived didn''t i?"(Hikari) The most important thing,she still alive it won''t change. You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author. "Knowing the reason,i can be relieved .Uncle do you know where he gonna stay tonight?"(Hikari) Ezax,lack sleep this past three days,he keep do a night watch .even if he says he has enough sleep and sleep like a log.she already noticed. "i know but do you want to be killed?"(Guild master) "Don''t worry he should be calm down by the moment i meet him."(Hikari) The guild master,can only scratch his head,if ezax can be friend with her daughter then it will be good,His best friend also ezax''s father wish was ezax has a friend he can count on one and found someone he want to spend the rest of his life. "Fine,but don''t be rash."(Guild master) "Thanks uncle~~"(Hikari) "Hikari-san let me go too."(Eliza) "Sure!He is the party leader,after all!"(Hikari) Ezax POV someone knocks the door....who the hell knocks the door ?Can you let me rest peacefully?as i open the door i see hikari again....Does she crazy or what?thansk god this VIP room so no one see will know. "What do you want?"(Ezax) she instantly bow and apologize ,what?IS this some kind of play. "I am sorry,for what i am saying,i just want to know you more .please accept my apology."(Hikari) "Master,i am sorry not for stopping her."(Eliza) i am ignore both of them and then continue to sleep.later when i woke up for dinner and open the door she still there and apologize to me again,ignoring her i go to some dinner which cost me quite a bit because i am in no mood for cooking dinner.when i come back she still there..and apologize again. I still ignore them ,i am go inside and continue to go sleep.when i wake up and want to go outside they are still there. "Why don''t you give up already,i will never accept your apology."(Ezax) "I Won''''t until you accept my apology,it isn''t because we want you to party with us.but it is because i want to apologize to you."(Hikari) "Do what you wish."(Ezax) i buy some ingredient for food and buy some book of alchemy.my alchemy still bad at least i want to make some potion so i could minimize the cost.then i check weapon store and armor store found nothing good for me.i back when the sun has set... Hikari are still waiting..... "Fine ,your apology accepted,now go away."(Ezax) "No....it is because your found us annoying ,you still not accept apology in your heart.so i will still keep going."(Hikari) "Just give up...Like your friend."(Ezax) "Eliza,is training with uncle,beside all of this is my fault."(Hikari) such a thing is pointless. "Master ignore her."(tiamat) "you don''t need to say."(Ezax) 2nd day she still wait... 3rd day.. still waiting... 4th day she doesn''t give up...as long she in front of my door,i don''t want to any quest. 5th day,6th day and the 7th day.. she still waiting.it doesn''t matter when she always in front of my door sometimes i see her eat some food..her eyes already panda.she must try her hardest try to stay awake.your guts rather awesome so what?you will give up soon... 10th day.midnight...i found her lay on floor,she has a fever. "why don''t you quit it already."(Ezax) "I won''t...until you forgive me.."(HikarI) .....just what is that idiot uncle doing?still it will leave a bad taste in my mouth if left her alone.So i lift her up and make her rest on my bed while i take care of her.after 1 day rest she wake up. "Are you an idiot?I won''t forgive you no matter what."(Ezax) "No,i am not.i just want you to forgive me."(Hikari) "For what?"(Ezax) "Because i want to understand you ."(Hikari) is she crazy or something. "I want to understand you because you are my first friend."(Hikari) Then i heard fafnir who rarely talk laughing. "See?She is bit special?"(Fafnir) "Shut up fafnir,i am not blind."(Ezax) "Kukuku,it is the first time you act like this.Master should party with her and your day never boring."(Fafnir) hah,what a troublesome dragon,he should tell me so i change my inn. "Get some sleep,i will escort you later to guild."(Ezax) "I won''t sleep until my apology is accepted."(Hikari) "Stupid girl,if you get some sleep i will forgive you,now just get some sleep."(Ezax) "Thank you."(Hikari) immediately she fallen asleep.this girl really annoying,but i can''t hate her.she is a fool..still i am to soft to her,i guess this make me the second fool..now just sleep and has enough rest what have you done has already more than what you need. Chapter 5:The First things to do. searching for proof reader.if anyone willing send me message. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++= After another 3 hours she has woke up.she rub her eyes then her eyes fall on me.i was reading alchemy book by the way. "Eak!!How long has you been there.Now how long has you been watching me sleep?(Hikari) Is she still sleep talking?i will just answer her in case. "I only sit here reading some books ,i have no interest in you ,especially your washboard."(Ezax) If you say i am to harsh,then you are wrong ,it would be rude to comparing washboard and her chest.of course it is rude to washboard not her. "I am still growing!!!"(Hikari) She blushing and tried to hide with her sheet. "Just dream it,such a thing is impossible."(Ezax) She clench her teeth,then after a moment she begin to talk normally. "Ezax,Can i and eliza join your party."(Hikari) "Sure."(Ezax) I answer her immedietely,even if refuse i doubt they won''t followed me.It ia better to keep them nearby.beside it isn''t because they are weak.they are just kinda newbie about being adventurer.of course i already accept the quest.i consider it as payment for teaching them being adventurer. "Don''t worry we will try our hardest!!We will -.eh?Seriously?"(Hikari) I nod,Then she immediately grab hands which made my book fall. "Thank you so much!!!If not uncle will be party with another person which won''t be cute like you!!"(Hikari) .........silently i release her grab,clench my fist *Smack* Give her a nice beat on her head. "Say it again ,another fist will delivered to you."(Ezax) .........i often said cute,my face is kinda girly,but isn''t that much girly.somewhere in the middle.Still i don''t like say being cute. "....i am sorry."(Hikari) As i lift my book,then put in on spatial storage ring .i standup. "Let''s go to the guild ,It is still early morning.but the guild should already open."(Ezax) "Yes."(Hikari) I check out from the inn ,then we go to the guild,where uncle and Elina wait.as usual their eyes fall on us.except Elina. "Hikari,you should call Eliza,i will talk about the procedure of party with her."(Ezax) "Nn!!"(Hikari) After that she go futher inside guild.Elina begin to giggle. "Has a change of heart? zax-kun~~"(Ezax) "No,It is just will be a pain if they followed me."(Ezax) I just shrug it off.it will be a problem if she tease me more than this. "Hmm~~ really?"(Elina) "Yeah,yeah just give me the party contract."(Ezax) In this world ,you need contract to become party.it isn''t like we need to pay or anything.It just procedure to check adventurer.anyone who desert their party without legal procedures will get blacklist which makes you harder to get quest.it is pretty light punishment if you don''t include the humilation or talk for some people.Some people even won''t willing to sell you some item. i found it is annoying.because some of them work lazily. "Here you go !Write all of your party member''s name here and sign here."(Elina) I write myself as the leader ,then the rest as company.After that she put it away. "Now,please Write your team name.so we can easily found you."(Elina) As i need to my names ,hikari stop me.she sure fast.Eliza was behind her. "You really have no sense with romance,hmm....I know it should be Royal Blade!!"(Hikari) Eh... "Indeed that is good name."(Eliza) Wait what?You fine with it? "No party has the same name,so it is accepted."(Eliza) "Yes,A success!!"(Hikari) Ah fine it is just name anyway,if i am bothered everytime i will be crazy. "Ezax,let has a discussion to decide the first continent to go with."(Hikari) "No,we won''t go anywhere until i say we can. Hikari,Eliza you still have no experience in battle ,first lets do quest that involves to battle."(Ezax) "okay.."(Hikari) At least she listen to me.then we go check on some quest...hmm there is no C rank quest were good.A D rank one will be to easy...B rank.....hmm looks they can''t handle this one.Ah got it. "Let''s go with this one."(Ezax) "Let me take a look."(Hikari) B rank Quest Hunt 10 Flower tiger Notes bring 10 flower tiger head as a proof. Reward :2 Gold,Silver ore 100 grams. Deadline:Two weeks since this quest taken. Since it pretty strong ,but they should able handle this much.Compared to the rest this the easiest.because the deadline is two week .they should be able to handle this much.What''s more hikari can''t cast fire magic and It will be a good opponent or eliza. "I see,I want to try kill this kind of monster.but i never meet them once."(Eliza) "It is normal,Because their habitat is 2 days walk from here,Also this tiger never get out of their territory."(Ezax) "Its reward also pretty good.Let''s do it."(Hikari) As we nod ,and want to go to quest counter.some baldy stop us. "I don''t know where you kids come from!But you say you guys should stop and suck on your mom tits!!Maybe the girl behinds you are strong but you?Bring 7 weapons like an idiot?Learn reality!!You think by bringing two beutiful girl it proves you as strong person?Hahahaha.."(Baldy) What a vulgar tone,Hikari was angry ,eliza too,and i?Doesn''t care about it.i just go pass him.There is no need to talk with scum like this.it will be a pain.he grab my shoulder then drag me away to the the middle of guild. "If you can push me one step back ,i will let you accept the quest,if you failed!!Hehehe you should let me taste your ladies.."(Baldy) Ha,a total scum huh. "Elina -san,i am sorry if i broke the wall again."(Ezax) "Sure~~Do what you want~~He is pretty annoying anyway,it will be fine even if you sent him to hospital."(Elina) Elina answered with casual tone while hikari and eliza watching us from far. "I am the rising star of C rank!!My Name is unmoved mountain!!I can easily kill flower tiger alone!!Hahaha,you meet a bad opponent."(Baldy) Talking with you will be waste of breath. I just push him lightly with one hand. and he was pushed back with easy.sorry ..my physical S rank....everyone give me blatant look. "Impossible?A boy that young!!"(Adventurer) It become noisy....they begin to discuss about it. "It is just fluke!!I just give him some confident,it won''t happen again!!"(Baldy) It begin calm down. He return to previous location.but this time i feel he cast magic on his leg...i see...you sure cheep use spikes to hold yourself. The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. I push him again but stronger than before just the right strength to push him like previous situations.except it left a trail because the spike. "Finish?i don''t have that much time.Beside your trump card to cheat already broken.the spike at your leg."(Ezax) Please let it finish.you are just frog on well.Beside i have seen someone who was cheaper than you. "Hey hey?Who is this boy?"(Adventurer 1) "....This boy,why i never seen him here..i should know any strong adventurer who stay here!!"(Adventurer 2) "Even ,his enemy cheat like that he still act casual,no single sweat can be seen from him."(Adventurer 3) "Ezax,you are amazing."(Hikari) "Master...just who are you?"(Eliza) It become noisy again.this is why i hate to come at this kind of time,i should come earlier. "You,how dare you to humiliate me!!"(Baldy) Ah,isn''t it your fault?You the one who seek problem. "Typhoon.."(Ezax) "Yes master."(Typhon) I ask in my heart. Still i don''t want to break any wall.He grab his axe then he try to chop me.i move slightly to the right and it misses and at the same time.my palm wrapped in wind hit it ,it break easily. "How dare you to break my silver iron axe!!"(Baldy) He try to punch me,He has no brain at all.before it arrives at me,iI clench my fist wrap in wind then punch him on stomach,then the wind do the second strike which was stronger than before send him to nearby wall and break it.. "Magic..A wind magic.."(Adventurer 1) "I remember!!This guy!!He is previously come here 3 years ago!!The youngest A rank adventurer on history!!Ezax!!"(Adventurer 3) It become noisy again..if they know me am an S rank what will they say? "Let''s go Hikari,eliza ."(Ezax) They nod,then we go to the quest counter. "Your adventurer ID please."(Guild clerk) It is need to be checked to minimize death of most idiot. "Ezax,i am C rank."(Hikari) "I am also. C rank."(Eliza) Eh seriously?I think you guys are B rank though. "Please don''t shout or anything else.keep it secret from everyone else.."(Ezax) "Don''t worry,we won''t disclose any of your information.I promise you that!"(Elina) ...whose fault,i was known as A rank before?You old hag. I show her the adventurer ID. Elina whistle while the guild clerk surprised,as her eyes twitch.Of course eliza and Hikari more surprised than her . "Ezax-kun ,am i wrong?Are you really sure accept this quest?With your strength won''t be this quest to easy for you?If you want i can recommend you some good quest."(Guild clerk) "No,my party is new i want them to learn first."(Ezax) Then she stamp it ,give the quest back to us.after we left guild Hikari begin to ask me. "Hey,how old are you?"(Hikari) "younger than you."(Ezax) "NO WAY,Please don''t joke you must be eighteen or nineteen!!"(HIkari) too lazy to give her explanation.i give her my guild card which show my age,job and name.for a while she only speak "awaawawawa.." "Eliza,let me check your sword.."(Ezax) "Ah,sure."(Eliza) She lent her iron sword to me,she still absent minded because what happens at the guild.I try to swing it ,it is pretty heavy,the edge is blunt.This is a cheap sword you can found anywhere. "Eliza,what is your mastery?''(Ezax) there is no answer,so i face her. "Please tell me."(Ezax) "I am sorry ! master,i am only at basic understanding level!!"(Eliza) she instantly do dogeza,this is the middle of city you dumb skull. Hikari immediately wake up then she help Eliza stand up.but seriously?She get to C rank only with Basic understanding? "Sorry Ezax,elisa is pretty hated much by other knight because her talent so no one willing to teach her,she achieve her current position by only rank."(Hikari) that''s why she is C rank,i understood now. "Both of you could you show me your guild card?"(Ezax) they show me their guild card....Both of then Was C rank and the color outline is gray.middle C rank huh?But uncle are spoiled to her daughter isn''t she?She was given VIP guild card which cost 5 gold.The VIP guild card is the same as normal guild card.except its color is white.when the holder grew stronger it will change color.its color was white to gray to black.white represent Low,gray middle,Black,end.if the rank change it will become white again.still no one willing to buy this because you can know your rank by using Power scale at guild.and it is free.by the way i bought the VIP card because everyone will know my strength which is not good.of course normal training won''t do any good. "Eliza,for time being you should try train physically with strength divider.i will teach you battle arts theory at night."(Ezax) i will supervise her so she could grow stronger.Still hikari is easier, she is magic knight isn''t she?if her magic grow a level the user of course will grow stronger,and what''s more she still can do knight training.if only battle arts increases its user strength by mastery..still i made the right decisions flower tiger will made them stronger.we don''t know why people will grow strong by killing monster.but the monster must be at the same level or stronger.if it is weaker then you won''t get stronger.A nobel is only B rank on outside because they was given the last hit to kill the monster.that''s why i hate nobility.'' "Hey,Hikari let''s go to bookstore,i need to buy some books for you and eliza.Eliza you should be proud,beside you are companion for time being of course i will help you."(Ezax) we go to the bookstore,even if we called it bookstore it is limited and expensive because all of the book is handwritten let''s see...for Hikari this book which contains 1-10 level spells should be enough,the one until 15 i don''t need it,i can buy better book at beast continent.the rapier book ,there is no good style for battle.all of them are only for a show.Eliza is two handed.....there is no book better than one i has on inter spatial storage ring.let''s buy this two handed which emphasize strength because the battle arts i has prioritize speed.this two books cost me 25 gold.i still have thousand gold left thought what''s more uncle give me another one hundred gold this should be good enough for time being. as i try to pay the book.i see Eliza,and hikari blushed while reading....no WHY THE FUCK THEY READING PORN BOOK HERE!!I give them a good smack... "IT hurts!!"(Hikari) "Sorry master.."(Eliza) i put the porn book back to its shelf.after i pay the book we left the bookstore i give them a good lecture.now i am worried about my future with them as a party. i hope i won''t be stressed to party with them. Chapter 6:What?Any problem with it? Plant Beast forest. It has been two days since we arrives this forest.we o ly have a week to come back so we can''t stay here too long.anyway ... Today sure is peaceful....Sit with mithril chair and mithril table which i made while calmly drink juice.life can''t get better than this. "Hey,ezax....arent you too harsh on us?"(Hikari) "Hmm?What?Do you got any problem with it?You said you will work your hardest?"(Ezax) I sip my juice,ah it is delicious while watching Hikari and Eliza do training. "But it isn''t like this!!!Why you let us fight 10 at once?"(Hikari) Right,they are right now fight ten flower tiger at once ,i lure them in.After that i make a lighting cage so no one could come in. "Eliza,what do you think?Isn''t it the best training to fight real enemy instead hit some wooden doll or tree."(Ezax) "Yes ma-ow!!!"(Eliza) Eliza was wounded,i cast healing spell on her wound.Yep this is my training regiment.If they are wounded i will heal them,if they are near be killed i will cast paralyze ball.By the way i also heal the monster.ah one of them is near dead.heal,heal. "Damn!!!Why you continue healing."(Hikari) For training of course,i just drink my tea. This three days i check their strength .Their stamina is the most lacking,what''s more hikari has a zero battle experience what''s more she can maintain her focus the same as eliza because eliza flawlessly deal the enemy weaker than her.This is train to get some battle experience,and get some stamina and focus. "Hosh,hosh,Cleave Cut!!!"(Eliza) She cut the tiger into two,hoh?Finally basic beginning?Just two days and she already learned it?You are good girl eliza.i open the lighting cage a bit and bring another tiger in. "More ,areyou kidding me!!?"(Hikari) Oh yeah,Hikari and Eliza tried to kill them in single move,if they success i will bring another one.The score of kill is 1 to 5 .Eliza score was one while Hikari 5,her precision with her rapier is good what''s more she us light that is condensed for killing them so they can''t absorb it.Still her defense is weak,that''s why she often wounded make her clothes tartered.She wore a clothes like eliza,because her magic cloaks is useless!It has zero enchantment nor it was made with special material.While Eliza,Good at defense and do counter,but lack firepower.Her speed is good.her talent with long sword is awesome. Both of them has good point that isn''t lose to each other.It makes me happy ,still what made me the happiest is... "Hikari,don''t sleep!!You already sleep enough!!Wake up!!"(Ezax) I sent some lighting to hikari who is lay on ground tired unmoving. "Sorry,sorry !!"(Hikari) Of course i give them a break,but they aren''t that tired.Beside only hikari who are like this eliza is good girl.What''s more it can relieve stress by watching her struggle,I has on lot of grudges on her and this is good chance to pay her back..all of my dragon is sleeping.this is the best break i ever has... 3 hours later... "......Good,you pass today as well."(Ezax) They lay on ground unmoving.With some tiger flower corpse of course which i killed.once they tired i will cover them and killed all of them.Yesterday hikari tried to hit me while i killing the last tiger.but i give her chop before she could do so. "Ezax,I am hungry..."(Hikari) Yeah,yeah i already pretty much make your share. "Master,how is it?"(Eliza) She must mean her movement. "Eliza,Your footwork is good,but your strength is lacking when you slice you sould put more power in it.You are two handed but your strength is lacking."(Ezax) "Me,me?"(Hikari) Hmm,if hikari. "Hikari,your power and precision is good maybe you same as B no..A rank lower tier.but your defense and speed is horrible!.You should has defensive spell on your arsenal.not just offensive after this learn some spell."(Ezax) She feeling down.Well it is also your minus point. "Just go rest...I will take care today nightwatch."(Ezax) "Yes..."(Hikari) "Understood."(Eliza) After they finish their share and went to sleep,i summon Typhon. A Green jade dragon with 4 legs and 2 large wing appear.he grow bigger than previous time i summon him "Typhon ,please do night watch you are allowed to read this book."(Ezax) "With pleasure master."(Ezax) Now i shall has my share of sleep,only typhon i believe can handle them easily,if it is brionac it will be disaster if this area is frozen. Still i keep alert. Zzzzzzzzzzzz Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site. "Master wake up!!"(Typhon) Typhoon suddenly wake me up. "Eh what?"(Ezax) I wake up,and see guild master . "Sorry,to disturb your dream.i just worried about hikari."(Guild master) "Don''t worry,she is tougher than look.So what is the second reason for coming here?"(Ezax) He isn''t a type person who come here just for chat. "I pretty much worried about you.Ezax,don''t you try to living peacefully as human?You don''t need to come back dragoon continent. you can get married,had a child and live happily.."(Guild master) He has no bad intention,he just purely worried about me.Still i must come back to them "No,I promise dad to take care my mom and my little sister."(Ezax) Beside it is also for myself.they are only family i has and i believed they are still alive.. "I understand,still i wish you to become human instead of dragoon .what a waste."(Guild master) He just his shoulder ,and give me face can''t be helped. "Sorry,I owe you a lot uncle for this."(Ezax) "Nonono,by taking care Hikari you already pay me more than enough."(Guild master) He paused for a moment,then his face become serious. "What do you think of hikari?Isn''t she cute girl."(Guild master) "No,no at all..i don''t has an interest with that washboard."(Ezax) I know what he means.i don''t think she as an opposite sex to begin with. "oh Man,Ezax,Don''t you worried about your future?"(Guild master) "Nope,i don"t care about it to begin with."(Ezax) He sigh ,he always sigh if i say that.he think me as his own son which is good thing but also a bad thing.but often he do an arranged marriage for me which made me cancel by defeating the opposite party father. "Hah,i am really worried about that child future what if he was tricked by bad guy ,if only you agree to marry her it will solve the problem."(Guild leader) He is guy that loves his family and i know he isn''t bad guy.still he kinda annoying "Uncle, Dragoon could only marry dragoon if they married with another race,it will only bring pain to both of them."(Ezax) he sighed ,looks like he expected my words. "Well,please take care hikari for me okay?"(Guild leader) I nod ,he turn away and vanish from my sight. "Typhon,please continue to do night watch for me."(Ezax) "Yes ,master do you mind if i asked you a question?"(Typhon) "No..."(Ezax) It is rare for Typhon to ask me.usually he always hooked with book i give him. "Master,is it because of us you can''t live as human?"(Typhon) "Don''t worry about it,if you guys don''t appear i would be already dead,beside i already give up live as humans."(Ezax) ".....Sorry master for such an idiotic question,has a good rest master."(Typhon) I nod then i go has some rest.don''t know why he apologize to me. The next day I woke up early as usual.seeing me wake up typhon instantly return to my body.i take out Some Iron silver from spatial storage ring and smithing equipment their equipment is only an iron.if they continue like this it will be break in one days or two days.i will make them silver equipment.as i make silver rapier for Hikari.Hikari suddenly appear beside me. "Ezax,is that weapon for me?"(Hikari) "Yes.If you are B rank you need this much.Hikari you should rest more after this training will continue."(Ezax) but she doesn''t go anywhere and sit beside me instead. "Ezax,when you talk with my uncle why you lie?''(Hikari) i don''t answer her,try to ignore her.still looks she wake up yesterday. "You don''t plan to live as dragoon nor human.it is like....you don''t try to live."(Hikari) i still continue making rapier her,i don''t has any reason to answer her.that''s why i keep silent. "Maybe i am pry to much,the reason you angry when i said half-dragoon isn''t because you are afraid ?Afraid if you don''t have nowhere to go."(Hikari) Maybe,i never though that much it just makes my blood boil when i heard it. "IF you has energy to chat,save that energy for training.don''t bother me for a while"(Ezax) but she doesn''t go nor she just answer she just sit.this girl doesn''t she has anything better to do?then i feel some light touch on my shoulder. "Hey are you listening to me?"(Ezax) "zzzzzzz''(Hikari) she fallen asleep......on my shoulder.i don''t understand her at all.but when i finish this...i will give her a nice wake up punch on her head. Chapter 7: Wyfern?Time to return. "....huhuhu...so cruel."(Hikari) Hikari eat her breakfast while crying.of course i don''t hold back her head must be swollen,but i expect eliza to went protest but she doesn''t mind it.wow before she give me a little protest.this must normal for princess. "Let''s review your basic after this."(Ezax) "YES!!!"(Eliza and Hikari) As i drink my Juice,Hikari ask me suddenly.. "Why you not drinking coffee,Like Us?"(Hikari) Why you bother to ask it?isn''t it clear because i like sweet drink? "Don''t tell me...You can''t drink coffee?"(Hikari) So ?your point?Even Eliza was wondering the same as me?Hmmm her face become smug then she grin widely.. "What a child...."(Hikari) i put the juice on ground then i walk to her give her a good hit on her head. "IT HURTS!!!!!!"(Hikari) "If you continue to spat nonsense of course i wit hit you!"(Ezax) "Child,Child,Child!!!"(Hikari) Another fist,because she was noisy..even if her eyes teary she still was so stubborn.ah forget it,it won''t end if i continue hit her, as an adult i will let this slide. "Child Child ,Ezax is a child and loser!!!!''(Hikari) I take it back until i teach her a lesson,i won''t stop!!!if not she won''t learn!!! "You little!!!''(Ezax) "Haha?angry?Such a child!!"(Hikari) "Master,please forgive her."(Eliza) Fine... "haha?Afraid to lose ?Eliza chibi?"(Hikari) This time eliza was snapped... "Dare you to say that again princess?"(Eliza) even though she was smiling but her aura didn''t stop it hey hikari...as i give her eye contact,she nod fuh..looks like she understand or not. "ELIZA CHIBI!!CHIBI ELIZA!!!"(Hikari) WHY YOU GODDAMN POUR OIL TO FIRE!!!!!!!! "Eliza,instead of that you should do review.....i will teach her a lesson!!"(Ezax) "Dare you tr-"(Hikari) i bind her with my whip after that i tied her with rope sack her mouth with some handkerchief then hang her on tree. "hmm!!!''(Hikari) "Let''s go eliza,review our progress!"(Ezax) "Yeah!!forget about hikari-san!!"(Eliza) "Ehm!!!"(Hikari) she tried to struggle but she can''t escape at least the tree i choose has strong branch so give it up. i seriously review Eliza moves ignoring some noise from Someone who hang on the tree. "........Ezax an emergency !!!Are?Why Hikari hang up like that?"(Elina) "She ask for it so don''t bother with it...Anyway what''s up Elina-san?"(Ezax) "I see,Ezax a pack of wyfern make a nest in this mountain!!"(Elina) Eh?All of surprised.even if it is only normal wyfern is has the power of A rank monster.but she say make a nest then it means there at a pack of wyfern here with minimal 30 wyfern.. "All of quest are cancelled ,and all adventures are take force in this quest!"(Elina) "There is no need,Our quest already finished we just need to report,but we will take this quest."(Ezax) Eliza,was rather confused well she part of knighthood so she must wondering why must us adventurers? "Elina-san?Why we must take part?Aren''t there knight that protect the city?"(Eliza) "Eliza,That city we stayed in SouthPort city it was city without kingdom.Of course protecting city duty fall on us adventurer.Even they had kingdom back the city the kingdom won''t let their knight send to kill the wyfern because if the knight that protect the city was gone what if an enemy attack the kingdom while the knight gone?"(Ezax) "As she understood she nod her head.Hikari must be understood this...or not..well who cares... "Ezax the quest will start one week from now,please come back to city to make necessary preparations for killing the wyfern."(Elina) good timing...i need its skin to make better armor for them.what''s more if i mix it with the Silver it will become harder...its blood also good for making potion..it will be a huge waste if i refuse it . "Okay,Eliza hikari,let''s return!!!"(Ezax) after that on our walk to the city,i begin to propose them training. "Hey instead you spend your times walking why we don''t use it training instead?"(Ezax) "?Are you crazy?We need 3 days walk to arrive at the city and we need to return to that forest again which cost another 6 days !!OF course we don"t has a time to train."(HIkari) "I agree with Hikari-san."(Eliza) Eliza was fine,but i can read Hikari with ease,her real though must be because it was to tiring she must knows i am half dragoon.Eliza must be worried ,what a good girl unlike spoiled princess that i know. "I wil use my dragon as transportation,don''t worry about it."(Ezax) ....hikari,still thinking ideas...Just give up already why you are so stubborn. "Master.....If master half-dragoon then why master could summon dragoon?"(Eliza) I will answer her honestly. "I don''t know...But my sister could also summon dragon ,and she the same as me."(Ezax) That is also the part i worried...Maybe it is only us the exception..i don''t know... "Ah!!I know !!We don''t have time do that training like yesterday!!And training like running won''t do us much!!"(Hikari) ....what she was say right .. "But you missing another way train Hikari.."(Ezax) A question mark appear above his head. "Sparring.."(Ezax) Hikari immediately surprised and try to run of course i use whip to bind her.. "Master!!Please guide me well!!"(Eliza) Yeah,yeah you are good girl..But hikari still tried to run. "No,no if you sparring with both of us!!!Then you would be tired and couldn''t summon your dragoon."(Hikari) If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. Hearing that eliza become worried ,but with that kind of reasoning ther is no way you could run!!" "Don''t worry,Training both of you are mere child play to me."(Ezax) "No,no!''It isn"t sparring anymore!!It is bullying !!"(Hikari) "Please guide me well master!!"(Eliza) She bow to me,hmmm what a good girl unlike someone i bind...i release her bind. "Now go warm for a bit!!"(Ezax) "Yes!!"(Eliza) "So harsh!!"(Hikari) What a problem they are.then i ask my dragon i side of me. "Master,i don want she ride me ,search another."(Tiamat) Tiamat is too picky,he still angry with that matter huh..But everyone feel the same. "Master,it must be rude of me but please let me decline this time."(Brionac) Even Brionac??Holy crap this is the first time he refuse. "I am still tired becausw yesterday...please search another person."(Typhon) I know,you already do night watch there is no need for you to told me ! "Master,i can''t fly so i am sorry."(Leviathan) ...yeah you could only swim,beside your tone already clearly don''t want to do it.her tone was flat which she use when she disobey me.i hope kulshedra don''t mind it. "No way!!She mock master why should i let her ride?Eliza is fine!!But hikari no way!!"(Kulshedra) Holy cow...she is even more angry than tiamat.let negotiate with them.. "Please everyone,We already registered as party i want them to be stronger or they would be burden.So please let this slide."(Ezax) "No."(5 Dragons) Instantly rejected...should i carry them?but it would be slower... "Let me do it."(Fafnir) Everyone surprised ,but i am more surprised than them.he is the laziest dragon afterall. "Really you guys...All of you are an idiot...Don''t you know one of them are Master future wife"(Fafnir) If only i could smack you i would smack you!! "Oh ,i see!!!"(5 dragon) "No ,it is not!!"(Ezax) "Master don''t be shy,i know master very well it is normal to love a girl!!"(Fafnir) ......that''s how you want to play huh?I will teach you a lesson.Bact to reality.. "Summon fafnir!''"(ezax) A white dragon with 2 golden Wings appear,its body was supported by 4 leg and its tail has white color and golden. "Huh?"(Fafnir) I take out from interspatial ring....Mithril gloves....wear it..everyone don''t know why i do this,even the 5 other dragons doesn''t understand what i am do then there is no chance Eliza and hikari will understand.igo in front of fafnir "You shitty dragon!!"(Ezax) "Groar!!(Auww)!"(Fafnir) Everyone flabbergasted as i give him a nice uppercut!!The 5 inside was surprised but hikari and eliza more surprised than them.of course a single uppercut won''t cut it!!!I teach him a lesson!!He tried to fight back but to me this huge body only bring disaster!!Bythe way only i understand the dragon language so hikari and eliza won''t understand. 30 minutes later... "Learn enough?"(Ezax) "Yeah,please stop it,please stop hitting the same spot si many times!!"(Fafnir) Hmm good ,at least he won''t do it again,because from all of dragon he is cleverer more than other dragon. "They are all master wife right!!sorry,if i am wrong!!"(Fafnir) Also dragon that more idiot than anyone!!!You court you dead!!! This continue another half an hour. "Fuh this is good warm up..."(Ezax) "That is warm up!!!Are younuts!!!"(Everone) Everyone say the same ezact word at the same time.. " Hey ,hey it has been long time i sweat this much,if i don''t call this warm up then what?Sport?"(Ezax) It is has been long time since i sweat this much,Well it relieved my stress now he should learn a new thing. "Okay let''s search for a good spot for sparring first.!"(Ezax) "Yes.."(Hikari) ?!Hmm why she become obedient?Well who cares... Narrator POV A dragon has its own area this also including the dragon inside ezax..they share their area for private matter.Now fafnir still sit in his own areas.. "Aw,aw master is so cruel.."(Fafnir) His bruise was great,especially at his head.it made a lumo...well everyone says it is his own fault...dunno why his master are so angry... "Fafnir why do you called me here?"(7th dragon) A jet black dragon ,with 4 wings stand with its two leg appear in front of him.Her name was Bahamut who made ezax use his katana.She is female.like kulshedra and Leviathan. "No,no i just want ask you something ,Would you mindto give them ride?"(Fafnir) "Fu*k off!!I will them!!I won''t let any humans ride my back!!"(Bahamut) "Still stubborn as ever ,now my business done you could go!!"(Fafnir) This shameless dragon!!!!Bahamut though if only they could fight inside he would kill fafnir!!He vanish without trace.fafnir once again alone. "Master maybe for now you think them less than a friend,but one day they will be someone you could love!!I will make them!!I won''t let master felt sad again!!"(Fafnir) The sadness master felt ,still exist in his master heart the sadness losing the dad his love..To replace it is simple ,he just need his master found a person he could love...A Person that won''t leave him,then has a happy life ..this was fafnir dream.the same as the uncle who adopt him. "Now,i need to heal myself,still it hurts as hell!!!(Fafnir) No one could him as he shout,but if their heard it...they will answer him. Isn''t you who made this mess to begin with?This will be their answer. Chapter 8:Only watch. It has been 6 days and we already arrived at the quest locations.after a brief explanations we understand one thing that it consist 30 wyfern and 1 wyfern lord.wyfern lord is stronger than normal wyfern Its power was greater than those common wyfern,which is near S rank.well i think both of the girls will be fine,they already achieved C black ranks,though my training maybe bit too harsh.after the meeting i return to our respective tent.i give these girls enough explanations. "I understand but won''t we hinder you if you fight?"(Hikari) "No,i won''t fight i will only watch you guys."(Ezax) if it is me who fight then won''t you girls to be much relaxed?beside this is good experience for you girls to learn how to fight flying enemies. "Master,but wyfern are A rank ,we at much only at C rank black.don''t you think we are to weak compared to that."(Eliza) "I don''t think so your battle instinct already good to begin with,you guys will do fine,even if it is A rank in humanity rank it is pretty much only B rank in other continent."(Ezax) different goverment mean different rank.for example some of beastmen could fly which make it easier to defeat a wyfern even human use bows it is still pale compared to elf.that''s why human think wyfern A rank while the other think it is B rank,there is also other monster like in humanity rank.i take out some silver weapons from my spatial storage ring.with iron it will be hard for them to kill wyfern . "Well here you go."(Ezax) i pass it to them.it is common for B rank to use silver weapon.with this they could kill at least three wyfern.beside their weapons on verge of breaking anyway. "Master,is this reward for our growth?"(Eliza) ''You could think it like that."(Ezax) she hold it tightly.Hikari smiled at me then she whisper me. "Ezax,thanks! it is rare to see eliza this happy."(Hikari) "Don''t thanks me ,i make it so you guys could survive yourself."(Ezax) "Ah,you are embarrassed!!!!Fufu,you are rather cute!!''(Hikari) give her a head chop,this girl is so mischievous.after she rub her head for a moment ,i begin to teach them a wyfern strong points and weakness.as i explain them some of people come to our tent,i went outside but the girls followed me.A party of adventurer. "Are you Ezax-san?"(Guy 1) "Yes."(Ezax) "I heard about your strength you must be very strong."(Guy 1) "get to the point already,"(Ezax) i don''t need your sweet words ,still this is my fault to show that. "Join our party,i will provide you 5 gold a month!!!!!Gold weapon and gold armor set!!what''s more you will receive 20% of party income."(Guy 1) Hikari and Eliza face turn ugly.well it is normal still i don''t have reason to accept " I refuse.let''s go Eliza,Hikari."(Ezax) first i already party with these,second this is my personal quest,third your payment are to cheap,my weapon are already blue mithril,my cloak is made from white steel thread which is harder than gold.5 gold each month ,that is the same my food cost. "Wait!!!I Will give you 10 golds,No 20 golds,how about that?"(Guy 1) ''"too cheap,try harder."(Ezax) even noble pay me more.you guys are to cheap. "Hey!!!It is already good for us,the Moonlight to invite you,it should be honor!!''(Guy 2) Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. Honor?You guys should be the one honored if i join you guys.foolish people.you are only B rank party and you dare to act so mighty "Hikari,let''s move the tent,this place is too noisy ."(Ezax) "Yes,i agreed.''(Hikari) "You,bitch!!don''t you dare act mighty!!Because he pull you"(Guy 2) He grab hikari shoulder,but i give back fist at his face.if hikari the one who fight it will be take too long,which will be a pain to move the tent myself.though it will be her win. "You how dare you!!"(Guy 2) this guy is too hot blooded.if it is the wild i will already kill you.i give him a punch on stomach so he passed out.then i throw him away. "Teach your party member some manner you fools,don''t bother with me or my party member again."(Ezax) if they bother me again,i will kill them. "We won''t bother you so please forgive us."(Guy1) ....something fishy all of his party member give me disdain look,but he keep smiling looks like today will be a pain.after that we has a dinner that provided by the guild.then after chat for a bit we go our respective. night when everyone sleep.i feel someone from before watching. i get outside tent.draw my knife.there is no need dragon help for killing them. "Looks like we found out."(Guy1) "Adventurer killer ,night baron,it is you isn''t it?Who put sleeping drug in everyone food?"(Ezax) "I see,that''s why you pretend to eat food like others."(Guy 1) no,i just eat as usual,i just has a poison immunity because my past. "Even i am like this,I am still A rank adventurer you think you -"(Guy 1) I appear in front of him thrust my knife into his neck. "You have too much pride in yourself,you murderer."(Ezax) i don''t need to listen you who give me so many opening.indeed you are too foolish.i withdraw my knife from his neck. then someone clap her hand. "Good job,Ezax."(Elina) "Elina-san,your sudden quest to kill the guy if you failed.but i never expected you to fail."(Ezax) She request me when i report to it,it is one of the personal quest.what''s more its payment is good. "Sorry ,sorry but myself even feel sleep a moment there until you show your killing intent for a moment there.''(Elina) ....what kind of guild leader is this. "Still i don''t expect the sleep drug doesn''t affect you even a bit.just what''s wrong with your body.''(Elina) "If you want to poison me,then such a thing is impossible because i myself have complete immunity of poison because i was poisoned by Three tails scorpion once."(Ezax) "...and you still alive?really you are to much mystery ."(Elina) "Anyway ,i will go to sleep please dispose the corpse."(Ezax) i didn''t ask that because i worried some of the adventurer found about me.i just don''t like the scent of blood. "Yes,yes."(Elina) tommorow,will be a bloody battle isn''t it?the scent of blood will be rather thick. "Really,i hate this kind of quest.''(Ezax) as i grumble i return to the tent and sleep. Chapter 9:Wyfern After that night where i killed him, everyone make an uproar because a criminal slip in their party of course the party was found guilty because of it and was sent into prison,they praised the guild leader for protecting them some of them even bowed.but Hikari doesn''t say anything she only watch this sight looks she noticed,eliza found the guild leader was very strong so she only say thanks.Still this princess is too sharp ,if she didn''t run away i will believe the kingdom will be prosper. now I sit on tree far from camp reading alchemist book peacefully until Hikari Called me. "Hey,what are you thinking?"(Hikari) "Hmm?what do you mean?"(Ezax) I close my book and go down. "Isn''t it clearly you?why you lie like this?."(Hikari) "Before i answer that question will you explain to me first?Why you don''t sleep?Aren''t you drugged by him?''(Ezax) i never expect the sleeping drug doesn''t affect her.beside the sleeping drug is powerful even an S rank could sleep by it. "Light priestess,it is because i was light priestess ."(HIkari) I never expect that,she is than must be very talented in light to become light priestess.Light priestess could only by achieved if she has talent to learn all light magic ,someone who capable to do it are allowed to do the ceremony and allowed to stay at the light shrine.one more thing light priestess are only women.still i never expect her to be one .it did explain the reason her immunity to poison,my immunity is pale compared to her.one day she will be one of the strongest adventurer .i believe it. "Back to my question,why you do this?"(Hikari) "I don''t like to become famous,that''s all."(Ezax) it is pain to be praised,so better hide myself.beside if i well known it will be hard for refuse quest from king or noble. "Hikari,if you proclaim yourself as light priestess i think everyone are willing to party with you.why you keep bothering me?"(Ezax) i think she only spoiled princess,i didn''t expect she has hidden trump card like that.her light magic must be above 6 or 7 level. "Because i trust you.isn''t that enough?"(Hikari) "Maybe i am trusted,but you are too easily to trust other ."(Ezax) A complain to her,in castle maybe fine,but in adventurer life it isn''t good.because they only care themselves. "I know,but if you can''t trust the person who let his daily life at risk for saving one girl who only bring trouble for him then who should i trust?"(Hikari) "don''t miss understand i only save you because you it is quest."(Ezax) "Then why you won''t abandon it?the payment are only hundred gold which is pretty cheap compared to other S rank quest."(Hikari) she is so persistent even though "It is my policy when i accept it i will do it until the end."(Ezax) "Say anything you want,but i believe you more kind than everyone i know."(Hikari) "You think highly for someone who murder the general from your own kingdom."(Ezax) "Kindness and soft is different,you are kind but you aren''t soft.you are kind to protect someone who you barely knew for 3 hour "(Hikari) damn what''s wrong with her super reasonable argument?I can''t even refute.today she sure is persistent "i can''t accept it,you are the one who save us yet you didn''t get any thanks."(Hikari) "It is only clearing pest anyway,don''t make fuss of it."(Ezax) "Pest?i don''t care about the pest you clearing,ezax you are afraid of blood aren''t you?"(Hikari) she is too sharp,what''s more she is really persistent.she is the first person who say that to me.even uncle didn''t know. "Your face turn ugly for a moment when you see blood that is why it is just sad for you not to get any thanks."(Hikari) "It doesn''t matter,i already get used to it.you don''t need to worry about me you need to worry about yourself first for tomorrow fight."(Ezax) She pry to deep into me,if i hurt her pride she would get at mad and she would leave me alone.that is what i though. "Ezax,do you know why i am so persistent about party with you?"(Hikari) i turn back ,even i want to know .. You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author. "isn''t it because you found me very trusted or kind?Which is it?''(Ezax) this is my wild guess though. "Part of it yes,but the real reason...it is because i fall in love with you."(Hikari) what? as my brain freeze her face blushed "you protect me from general ,watching at night to protect me from monster don''t sleep single day cook me a delicious food treat me like a normal girl instead princess.A guy that won''t never abandon his friend no matter what...that is you the person who i fall in love with.."(HIkari) i will just what i say on my mind,i did treat you you like that but.. "Are you a masochist ?"(Ezax) i am pretty sure i bully her because she won''t shut up,tied her hang her on tree and many other things,i never ever give her single kindness except food and protection.that is why i though she is masochist but as the answer i was given slap. ''STUPID!!!!"(Hikari) She go away as she sulked then,i think she just wanted to tease me and i got her nicely well who cares i need to learn some alchemy. the next day she sulked and eliza only say sorry for it well whatever.it.We will attack the wyfern today.So i check their weapon after that we begin our raid to the wyfern nest when the wyfern split into two group which hunts and protect the nest.it begin with archery from archer and magic from magicians the wyfern that didn''t get killed try to fly but everyone went to finish them with each party kill one or two party kill one.some of they wyfern calls help and 10-15 wyfern come back just in half an hour. Hikari and Eliza did a very well good job to handle them With Eliza as Vanguard and Hikari as the rearguard she uses magic to inflict good damage to the wyfern while Eliza become the wyfern main target,Hikari focus her target on wings with magic that focus on piercing when it falls ELiza will finish it off by cut its neck. then they do the same for the second target when they was attacked by two wyfern or more they will pull back to the forest,i follow them silently so they won''t notice me.when they wyfern split they will kill wyfern one by one.what''s more they use terrain better than what i teach.good job everyone "Good job,let''s return for now.''(Ezax) "Is that all you to say?"(Hikari) ???what ? "Forget it ."(Hikari) she sulked once again.then she walk in front "It is rare to see princess sulked this long,Master what did you do to her."(Eliza) "Don''t ask me.."(Ezax) As we walked back to the camp we found we lost quite much near half us was killed by the wyfern because the wyfern was more than 40 it is 60.many of them was cried but it finally ends and i can''t get used to it the stench of blood... "Elina,what is our loss?"(Ezax) "48 eight people."(Elina) A little to half,well it is already pretty good result for this time. "Ezax,did you kill the leader of pack?"(Elina) "No,we didn''t meet ,you?"(Ezax) she shake her head,this is bad if the leader survived then there is chance the quest will be repeated.still where is the leader of the pack. "let''s keep searching for now.''(Elina) As it say that The man who mourned his friend suddenly be lift his shield and a Purple wyfern sweep pass him and when it passed his hand which hold shield are blown away..everyone eyes go into the sky where the purple wyfern flies,no it isn''t wyfern which usually the leader of the pack this is wyfern lord what''s more it is the mutant one.a normal wyfern lord in humanity rank is A rank if it is mutant then the rank raise by one.as the wyfern sight new target it flew into higher then it fly down at amazing speed to someone i know.It is hikari just before it open it jaw to kill hikari i draw my bow and shoot the arrows to its eye.Its hit as it in pain it misses hikari and go to fly higher with bloody eye. "Your opponen is me shitty wyfern."(Ezax) The wyfern finally sees me as opponent.Tiamat let''s go. "YEAH!!SHOW HIM THE WHO IS THE BOSS ,MASTER!!"(Tiamat) the bow immediately wrapped in flames.preparation ready... time to get serious. Chapter 10:Hikari desire. "Everyone who don''t want to die stand back!!"(Ezax) i ordered them to stand back,the wyfern scale is pretty thin but this mutant one aren''t i should aim at its leg join or wing.still it has enough intelligence to differ an enemy or prey.for now it see me as enemy or not.the wyfern descend at alarming rate to claw some magician who run slower than some people. I shoot the arrow to its claw to deflect the trajectory the claw then shoot another one to its leg!!but it only grazed and only burned a little.it is already wrapped in tiamat flame ...what a scale ,it is tougher than a dragon scale even it cover the join and its weak point.normal arrow won''t work.it fly higher again this time it try to kill me. i do a reverse somersault when it is half spin i draw my bow and shot its eyes once again.it dodges.Then i see the magician which turned to be a female doesn''t move because fear.the dragon who missed the enemy immediately turn and try to tear her apart. LEVIATHAN!!! "Yes,Master!!!"(Leviathan) with my right hand holding the bow i hold the staff with my left hands.. Dragon magic!!! Bubble bouncer!!! Immediately the female magician wrapped in bubble then when it try to tear it apart the fang was reflected.immediately i send her away..it is hard to protect people while fight like this wyfern. "GROARRR"(Wyfern lord) When i already send the magician away.the wyfern eyes becomes Gold and Flame wrapped it!!! OH FUCKING DAMN REPTILE YOU ARE ELEMENT MUTATION?At first i though it is only normal mutation to think it is flame mutation!!!TIamat flame are resisted then i put my bow in back and i will call brionac which is considered the best when fight fire magic. BRIONAC!!! "Yes master ,i am ready!!!"(Brionac) Dragon magic!! ICEBERG!!! A Giant Ice cone fall above it,it dodges by flying to higher place,got you using the giant ice as stepping i jump to follow it!! "Well it is your bad luck to show me your fire,if you don''t use you won''t be ice sculpture.or if you dodge to the side i won''t kill you this early .well you only has a small brain it doesn''t matter."(Ezax) My whip wrapped around its neck using it as rope i jump to its back while pour some magic to the whip..it tried to use the flames .but it doesn''t come out. "Ice burning magic,this is brionac power...it burns the target magic when the target is empty it will become ice sculpture."(Ezax) I pour more to it..as it struggle to break free i still keep pour my magic. it struggle slower then it become ice sculpture..........oh shit...the reason we are still in air are because it has magic to fly...if its zero then.... FRee fall... TYPHON!!!!!!!!! "Yes master!!!"(Typhon) A wind wrapped in my body make my body descend slowly... fuh.....use lot of magic...my magic only 20% at most left,still it does has a lot of mana,thanks god i can bind it pretty early or i will be the one who dead. still the ice sculpture is too hard to think this height didn''t even break it.Brionac magic sure is awesome.'' "Thanks for your praise."(Brionac) well who cares the wyfern is dead. everyone who see this shocked,but i can see their eyes angry at me,must be because i don''t fight in raid to the nest of wyfern.if i participate we can put the death to minimal still i don''t fight of course they would be angry at me,what''s more i don''t has a single wound at me.they will doubt me more. "YOU BASTARD IF YOU ARE THIS STRONG THEN WHY YOU WON"T HELP US!!!"(Adventurer 1) "My boyfriend ARE DIED BECAUSE OF YOU!!!"(adventurer 2) "WE ARE IN THIS PLACE TOGETHER AND YOU ONLY FIGHT WHEN YOUR PARTY AT RISK?YOU SHITTY BASTARD!!!"(Adventurer 3) what a pain,indeed they went protest because they put their life on risk while they think i don''t. "I AM GONNA KILL YOU BECAUSE OF YOU MY WIFE DIED!!!"(Adventurer 1) Hikari slap him. "You fail as human!Can you see he risking his life to hold the wyfern lord by himself?We didn''t stand a chance to fight it!!!IF HE USE HIS MANA TO MINIMIZE THE DEAD FOR THE RAID THEN WHAT HAPPEN IF HE DEAD RIGHT NOW !!"(HIkari) why you are angry for my sake?You don''t need to that.i stop her from draw her rapier. ''Hikari stop it,it is fine i already get used to it.beside it is my fault not to participate in raid with you."(Ezax) "Master that isn''t your fault..."(Eliza) "No,it is my fault,let''s leave at that."(Ezax) after we dig grave for the one who dead today and mourn them,everyone return to their respective tent,while i sit on the tree stare at the moon.Hikari come over "Why you stop me?It is clear you save your magic for killing the wyfern lord!!!They should know better than anyone how dangerous is wyfern lord what''s more a mutated one if you don''t save your magic ,then all of us will be dead!!!"(Hikari) "You won''t die nor eliza,i already told the guild master to protect you."(Ezax) Still i expect this already...the wyfern are too many compared to normal pack in the quest explanation that is why i though the wyfern lord are mutated one,though i don''t expect element mutation, that''s why i choose to save magic.at the worst when it try to kill others i can force it into submissions. "Then why won''t guild master fight?She is stronger than you isn''t why it must you?"(Hikari) This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. "A single swordsman cannot do anything hikari,no matter how strong she is ,she can''t protect everyone.Remember a mutated monster have greater intelligence than its kind.it is already lucky the wyfern isn''t that clever,if it fly higher and attack the one who run there will be more whose fall."(Ezax) that''s why i suppress it with killing intent,still if its pay more attention at least 10 more will be dead.no matter how strong we are...A victim will appear.,the only thing we can do is minimalism it.because we are fragile... "You don''t have obligation to protect us at all,if you don''t told us to run and we try to fight it won''t it make your fight easier?Even though like that you risk your life where no one can help you fight the monster alone to protect us...you are the number one who don''t want any of us died."(Hikari) ....dead,blood,corpse,skeleton even though i often see it just can''t get used to it.that is why i want to minimalism the corpse.Hikari should know my magic cost a quite of magic because she is light priestess if not she surely will ask me why i don''t protect others. "Still why they won''t say thanks you at least,you save their life aren''t you?"(Hikari) "Hikari,Human,beastment,elf,mermaid,even dragoon has desire.no matter how much is it,they always want to the best outcome,if it is fulfilled they will wants more,people desire are endless it won''t end until their life end."(Ezax) compared to the victim for the raid quest,today is light the normal quest will has twice more than this.that''s why they don''t bother at me,once they learn if could fight and they could save their allies they wants more... "........desire....then doesn''t it mean they act for themselves?Just for make you the scapegoat ?"(Hikari) i nod,if the can''t let their sadness go by do that,then let them do that.A gloomy atmosphere is bad. "Hikari you should make a distance for yourselves at least you won''t be hated.make eliza do so too"(Ezax) "Then won''t you be alone!!!"(Hikari) "It is fine,i already getting used to it."(Ezax) it doesn''t because i like to be alone,when they see my power they will be afraid ,when i don''t use it they will be angry at me because i don''t use it and say i am hindrance to them.some of them even kick me from their party. "Get down."(Hikari) "For what?"(Ezax) Seeing me doesn''t get down she climb the tree and falls.sigh..if you can''t do it then don''t force yourself.i get down and help her stand up,immediately she drag me to the nearby hills.she sit on the edge..and told me to do it to..fine i do it to..and notice this is a good spot for watching the star. "Ezax,when i was child , i like to watch the star like this from balcony of my room at midnight .often i envy the star in the sky."(Hikari) "Why?"(Ezax) "Because i am lonely,at my age it is common to sleep together with your parents but i never sleep with my dad or mom.I envy star who always together in the sky but uncle once sleep with me and told me "A star always stay together no matter what happen,in sad ,in happiness that''s why try to grab star."(Hikari) that uncle is your own dad,nor i can tell her about it.i don''t want she to know... "It is rather silly ,i ask him how to grab star and he said"The black background is life,you are star in the sky as the same as other your way life will change your ways when you walk in your life you will meet a person important to you...and they are star.that''s why you must protect them life is black background if you only has 1-3 star scary but if you has so many the scary night will be bright and become wonderful sight isn''t it?" is what he said."(Hikari) "Then you think me as star?Just forget about me ,why you choose a single person for more important person in your life?"(Ezax) "Let me finish first."(Hikari) she smiled warmly..well it is rude of me to do that. "I ask my uncle what the big star which round in the sky and he answered me"Hikari that is moon,it will represent the person who you wants to stay with." then i ask him which more important the star or the moon?He answered me"The moon,even in dark night as long the moon shine you still could walk right?It is the same even star doesn''t present as long the moon with you ,you still could live..but star are important too only when it together it will create a the most beautiful sight." "(Hikari) what his father is saying aren''t wrong,as long you has a person to love you still could live like my family. "Ezax,you are the moon who shine in my life,the person who i want to stay with forever.A person i couldn''t be parted with.."(Hikari) "search other moon,beside i am new moon you will never see me exist..."(Ezax) "Moon shine because it reflect the sun light ,you maybe don''t shine now.but if you shine you will be brighter than anyone i have ever seen,a moon needs sun to live.ezax,i want to become your only sun because i love you.i want you bright in night like the moon today.."(Hikari) today is full moon,still...can you quit with your tease. "Don''t tease me too much.it must be a joke right?"(Ezax) "IT ISN"T PLEASE TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!!!"(Hikari) why you angry then?aren''t you angry because you was found out ? "Then are you masochist?I am pretty sure i only bully you.''(Ezax) "DIE YOU IDIOT!!!!!!WHY YOU CAN"T NEVER UNDERSTAND MAIDEN FEELING!!!!"(Hikari) i was slammed into ground and she leaves angrily ,what did i do wrong?I don''t understand..... Chapter 11:Shameless girl. Marquere city. 5 days since the wyfern incident end we return to the city slowly,I train them a lot though beside this is good chance to increase my magic capacity.dragon magic is powerful but its consumption is high.after we rest for a day at the inn i took this chance to speak with Elina.of course i told them to wait outside for now they should be strong enough to defend themselves in this guild. Guild master room. "I see you planned to move to another city for a while aren''t you."(Elina) "Yes,beside the city where we stayed for a while will be good train for defeating ghost and zombie enemies.i want them to learn the basic experience of hunting at least."(Ezax) Compared to monster on the forest or flying monster zombie and ghost are weaker but zombies have advanced regenerative ability and ghost immune to some physical attack and rock magic.i want them to handle it since it a common type of group. "Can you stay here?There is some good hunting ground for adventurer near here for zombie and ghost you don''t need to do it there."(Elina) "Elina-san you should know ,The bad romour about me already spread it will hinder Hikari and Eliza training,the best way is to move another city until the rumour died down."(Ezax) This isn''t the first time it like this,though some of them went protest because i don''t want to participate in easy raid. "I see,The gate pass for Hikari and Eliza i will ready by tommorow.now here is the reward and you should pick the wyfern corpse that you killed.(Elina) "Yes."(Ezax) In quest like this if you kill the monster you will get the opposing monster drop so we got two wyfern and one mutant one.Considered we only has 3 people in party our reward already make other party droll . "Thanks Elina-san,i will return tomorrow."(Ezax) "Don''t mention it,i owe you more than that."(Elina) After that i exit the room, and go to guild lounge where hikari was waiting after that we would meet eliza and stayed at inn nearby. "Hikari sorry to made you wai-"(Ezax) I stop in middle way,because hikari was circled by a group of people,well a Rank B teenager is already genius enough so is plausible what''s more she is rather beutiful on her own though she is total flat. I will just wait i ordered milk and some snack while watch her handle the crowd.i hope you join other party because it is huge mistake to party with you. "I refuse,because someone who taken my first time is there."(Hikari) ......it must be her first love or whatever,i don''t know why she joke about love that much.. "Of course ,it is action only do to create a baby."(Hikari) .........i drop my glass......and it create huge sound....Everyone eyes fell on me. "Oh,Ezax i have been waiting."(Hikari) She answer me with lovely voice.she then wrap her arm around my arm...Okay enough i don''t want to hurt girl,but you beg for it..i take out paper fan from my interspatial ring... Paper fan,Is a weapon i found in dungeon it cant break and doesn''t inflict wound only pain...Okay 10 hit on head... First one.. I swing my fan to her head. "Ouch,why you hit me?"(Hikari) "You should know better than anyone."(ezax) "Ezax,don''t tell me you are embarassed!!"(Hikari) 20 hits..... After 10 minutes she on verge of tears.This girl will never learn isn''t she.. "Hey how dare-"(Guy 1) I kick the guy who try to protect her to the ceiling.Annoying...i don''t need with your good act. I use my some clothes to shut up her then bind her with my whip and lift her up like a kidnapper well if i get weird title i wouldn''t care.after i take the corpse to spatial storage ring and fetch we go to inn eliza,don''t bother ask because she knew if i do this to hikari then it means hikari make some mistake. At the inn i plan to spend the day read the alchemy book but once again this masochist girl never learn her lesson.everytime i hit her she still do it...she is masochist isn''t she?well it isn''t like i know the words but it fit her .. "This is my room....get out."(Ezax) "I am just wondered ezax,Are you a gay?I mean even we are alone you never attack me..."(Hikari) "It is simple,because you don''t have appeal at all."(Ezax) this is truth,you are too flat i bet if you dressed as guy everyone will mistake you as guy. "don''t say that in your mind,this is your future wife."(Hikari) looks like word won''t work with her.i lift her up "Hmm?Don''t tell me you finally attack me?"(Hikari) i shake my head bring her to front door and open it. "No,i won''t get out until you realize my feelings."(Hikari) don''t care and don''t want it.she tried to struggle but i kick her after see she is fine i close the door.she bang the door for a while ,30 minutes later someone knocks the door and i found she is pouting immediately i close the door.this repeat until evening.after that she knock the door again.she is already get on my nerve...

The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. "What?Why you are awake?Didn''t i drug you?"(Hikari) "I am immune to it.so please give up i can''t read peacefully."(Ezax) as i tried to close the door she try to force her way in and her head try to pass me..damn it. now i can''t close the door "Forvish,only light priestess has insane immunity.please tell me why i want to know about you!!!"(Hikari) Don''t tell=Endless noise... Tell lies=a problem ,because she is too sharp. she will notice it. Tell truth=it will enhance her love joke. Force close the door= a pain to take care of corpse and blood.... "HEY HEY Ezax!!!WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU ?ISN''T IT CLEAR SHE LOVES YOU?Why don''t you just accept it"(Fafnir) looks like my though was slipped out somehow.well i will talk to my dragon a while i will use vote system i guess. "Hey everyone,what do you think?"(Ezax) "Close the door."(Tiamat) hot blooded as ever ''Tell her lies."(brionac) "agree with brionac ,with that at least she will stop bother you for a while.''(Typhon) that''s right...but is kinda pain. "don''t tell her,as long she still shameless.it won''t end well."(Leviathan) only to me though... "Close the door."(Kulshedra) it is rare for child like her to become this evil...you really hate her don''t you. "I suggest you make her as your wife."(Fafnir) "Okay it will e hard to think for an answer ,so let''s stop here and fafnir.tomorrow you should know i will give you a very nice beating."(Ezax) "Eak !!!it is a joke!!"(Fafnir) "And it isn''t funny."(Ezax) sigh now what should i do to her..everyone has different opinion. "Ezax,let me in i won''t bother you again today,i won''t ask anything about you.so please."(Hikari) ...fine i will let her in... as i open the door let her in i ask her. "just asking what kind of drug you use."(Ezax) "Sleep drug,i just want to kiss while you sleep."(Hikari) on second though you are more dangerous than any enemy i face,i try to push her away but she continue to stay in my room.we start to fight each other. "Why you are pain in the ass!!!Can you just leave me alone?"(Ezax) "NO I WILL NEVER YOU LEAVE YOU ALONE!!!!!!!MY FEELING FOR YOU AREN"T JOKE!!(Hikari) "I DON"T NEED YOUR FEELINGS!!!I DON"T CARE ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS NOR I HAS INTENT TO ANSWER IT!!!SO JUST ACCEPT IT!!!"(Ezax) "AS LONG AS I LIVE I WON"T GIVE UP!!!"(HIKARI) "THEN DIE!!!"(Ezax) i grab my sword sheathe and draw it. "EZAX STOP IT!!!"(Fafnir) "kill me then!!!as long you lies to yourself i won''t give up!!!"(Hikari) my sword stop just in front of her neck....she didn''t even move an inch.why ,why she is so persistent about this!! "See?if you truly feel to kill me you will already kill me."(Hikari) she grab my hands which held the sword gently "Ezax,won''t you tell me more about yourself?t please let me share your sadness.i know i am being selfish.but please believe in me."(Hikari) ''i don''t need it."(Ezax) i take away my hand from her hand and sheath my sword. "I don''t care about how you feel.i want you to hate me,there is need for you to love or other feeling.it won''t give you happiness"(Ezax) hearing that i push her away from the door and close it. narrator POV At night Hikari was lay on bed....she wants him to be happy that''s why she do everything she could.but she was failed. "groar groar."(????) a chibi dragon appear in front of her ,she was surprised and moved away ,but after she check it more and know it was fafnir she breathe of relieve. "groar groar!!"(Fafnir) it take out some paper and write.. "Don''t give up... "I know i don''t plan to give up.."(Hikari) then it write more and it was. "Ask your uncle .."(Fafnir) "Uncle?"(Hikari) it nod then it go away...and vanish.. "right uncle live with him for some time,and i heard from ezax he stay in this town and will arrive tonight."(Hikari) when she try to get out she see ezax try to exit the inn so she choose to follow him from far.Ezax stop in middle of fountain where a huge plate tomb was erected because wyfern raid at that time.no one was there everyone was sleep for tomorrow they plan to wake up early and put it in graveyard.it is common here to make tomb like this when many people died. "i am sorry,i can''t risk Eliza and Hikari lives to save you guys live.especially hikari,even though she is shameless,persistent,but she is a kind girl i can''t let her die she is the second person who tried to comfort me...please everyone forgive me.(Ezax) after he said that he go back to the inn and sleep at her room.hikari go to her room she was blushed.. "Stupid.....how i can hate you after i heard you say such a thing ."(Hikari) Chapter 12:Warm village A week has been passed since we started our travel to the next city,for now we plan to rest at the nearby village.if i am not wrong it will be only one hour walk from here,though our supply is fine i am tired mentally because of her. "Umu your guard are so solid,even at night i tried to sleep with you,you will immediately moved or brushed me aside."(Hikari) goddamn it,why she is far more offensive now?i don''t remember say anything good to this girl.really i will never get used to her.of course eliza at first panic but she already get used it,because all of hikari''s effort are in vain.Then i heard some footstep ,i halt everyone movement .this heavy footstep and i heard some iron rustling. knight? "Let''s hide for now."(Ezax) "Someone coming?"(Hikari) i nod then we hide behind trees and after a moment 5 squad of knight went past us,that symbol....Spirado kingdom?what are they doing in this neutral areas? "Spirado kingdom,that kingdom hasn''t got any good reputation."(Hikari) "Yes,i heard they often do meaningless killing."(Eliza) still they had the highest security because the king doesn''t want to take risk,but the villager was rather poor compared to other village cause expensive tag.thought that''s why i don''t visit the kingdom so often. i see their breastplate is clean which proof the village was safe.i also don''t smell any blood from them. "Let''s go rest at village for one day then we would go to the next city."(Ezax) "Yes."(Hikari and Eliza) after a moment we arrive at the village,the village was very dirty many wines bottle or beer bottle found at the ground,then i see some villager hold their stomach.looks they indeed threaten the villager to give all of their food or treasure..i also notice some building are destroyed.i tightly gripped my fist.then we go to nearby inn.i plan to rent some room. "I apologize young adventurer,our village doesn''t has many food left,what''s more many of our bed are messy.that''s why for now no room available ."(Inn keeper) from the way she talk ,she must be thinking us a noble.still isn''t it should be 50 years old man?why it is 20 years old women. "May i check the room?"(Ezax) "please forgive me ,but the bedroom can''t be used,please understand."(Inn keeper) Ignoring her i go to second floor and check the bedroom immediately,i found the bed leg was broken and the sheet was torn.i check the window and see all of the crop has some footprints on it. "So horrible."(Hikari) "I feel so ashamed to call them as knight,a knight should protect its country!!!"(Eliza) both of them mad,well at least there is no casualty. "Nee-san , would you guide me where the elder is?"(Ezax) "Ah,yes!!!"(Innkeeper) The Inn keeper brought me to elder.the elder is the one who rule this town.it has been 5 years since i last meet him. the elder home was more ransacked ,then i notice the sword on the ceiling was gone,it was silver sword symbol of this village .Hikari and Eliza followed behind me. "Adventurer,what brought you here?"(Elder) "Elder would you mind please tell me?what happens here?"(Ezax) i was concerned,did this really an simple Extortion or ? "Adventurer you mustn''t pry into our village matter,if not you will be killed."(Elder) I see,then the more i can''t stand this,besides i owe you much more. "What happens to the village symbol and any casualties?"(Ezax) "Adventurer ,i am afraid i cannot tell you.."(Elder) "Just tell me!"(Ezax) the knight already got in my nerves,this will decide their punishment.the elder and hikari was taken aback from my shout.Eliza also surprised. "For now there is only three people injured and one kidnapped.our village symbol was taken by the captain.also all of our food was taken by the knight from before."(Elder) "Is it the inn keeper fine?"(Ezax) "Yes,even though he is heavily wounded."(Elder) ....that guy if i am not wrong has 2 daughter,the elder one was the one who become the clerk for now .there is big chance the little girl was kidnapped because she was rather beauty what''s more the innkeeper must try to protect her daughter.what a scum they are.. "Hikari,Eliza stay here protect the village."(Ezax) "Don''t tell me you gonna snatch back it alone?Please let me go with you."(Hikari) "It will be faster if i go alone.Just wait for me elder i will return everything taken from them.''(Ezax) "Please,it will be impossible for you!!what''s more if someone escape your head will be in danger,don''t worry we still has enough food for ourselves,you don''t need to risk your life!!!"(Elder) This elder is rather crafty,but he is also kind toward other people that''s why this village could live this long.he must forget about me.so i will remind him. "Elder,you already paid me before."(Ezax) "What do you mean,young one?"(Elder) i just smiled,then exit the village after far enough i summon fafnir. "Fafnir,please lend me your power."(Ezax) "Sure,they get on my nerve to begin with."(Fafnir) we go fly to the direction they were going before...all of your punishment is dead.. after 20 minutes flies i found them... found them... "Fafnir if you see any escapes just half kill them."(Ezax) "Ou!!"(Fafnir) wear some mask ,i Jump from fafnir then use dragon magic. Dragon magic light element .. Soul wing blade 3 blade apears behind my back form a wing .just before i hit the ground i use dragon magic wind force to lessen the impact "Hey who are you?"(Knight) slice ,i slashed him but it did not kill him..because fafnir ability is mental attack.OF course if i do the mental attack on the one who was passed out they will die.but i won''t do that it will only stained my clothes.well i will answer his question though. "A grim reaper send to kill you guys!!"(Ezax) Narrator POV 2 hours later. Elder House. "That guy don''t tell me he planned to take back everything!!Agh he should bring me with him!!!what kind of MC that leave his heroine alone!!!"(Hikari) "Hikari,instead grumbling we should protect the village."(Eliza) "Yeah,i know .."(Hikari) They were keep alert ,especially hikari because she keep using Heat detection which is light based magic that made heat get red color.still all she see only villager heat or eliza''s and grew bored.... "Hikari-san just asking,why you fall in love with master?I understand master is amazing,but isn''t it your dream to marry a kind and dependable person?Master is dependable but i am pretty sure he isn''t kind at you"(Eliza) "????What do you mean Eliza?Didn''t ezax treated me kindness?"(Hikari) Eliza shake her head,because Ezax never ever once act kind so she know that is only one sided love from hikari.what''s more Hikari often hit by paper fan. "So cruel!!!!if he really that evil then i will be already killed..he never once do an impossible quest at us right?For example like 2 days ago.he will help us because there is stray beast nearby isn''t it?after we tired can''t move anymore he cook delicious food for us.it is already proof that he is kind guy.he is just tsundere toward me."(Hikari) Eliza can only smile wryly ,yes her master kind but she is one hundred percent sure that he doesn''t has any romantic interest to her.Even if she say that she doubt it could change her mind.All she can do is see. "Hey ,Eliza why you left knighthood?Isn''t it your dream to become knight?"(Hikari) Surprised by hikari sudden question,Eliza couldn''t answer anything what she knows she join knighthood so she can protect her only friend.Because her blood everyone make a distance from her..that''s why she wants to protect her first friend Hikari by quit the knighthood. "If it is me,because i want to protect you hikari-san my only friend.my dream become knight so i could be your knight but you run away so do my knighthood."(Eliza) Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. "Thanks Eliza,Let''s be friend forever!!"(Hikari) "Nn!!"(Eliza) Eliza nod her head.then she heard some footstep.it was two person footstep.After a moment ezax and the hostage was seen ,Ezax clothes doesn''t has any blood at it nor the hostage 15 years old girl. "Ezax,What took you so long!!!!If you took this long you should bring me."(Hikari) "Hikari,You should fix your manner."(Ezax) You returned after work and the first thing you hear was complain what kind of manner was that ? "Master ,welcome back."(Eliza) "Ah Thank you,You should go to your family."(Ezax) "Yes!!"(Hostage) The girl immediately return to the inn.after that many villagers come out give thanks to ezax.Ezax take every food and money from the knight then he put in middle of village .Including the symbol of the village. "I don''t know how we can repay you,after everything you has done to us."(Elder) "it is fine,i owe this village my life after all."(Ezax) "Owe life?What do you mean?"(Elder) "Elder!!!Allow me to thank him!!"(Inn keeper) the Bulky guy who is the real innkeeper was bandaged and helped by his daughter come to me. "Ha,really you like a mummy.Five years and uncle turned into mummy."(Ezax) mummy is famous monster from desert where many ruin there,there is rumor says mummy is human from past and the ruin was their home. "That way of talk !!You are that dragoon boy!!!"(Innkeeper) "Yeah,the dragoon boy that you guys saved once."(Ezax) Ezax still remember this whole village hide ezax and treat ezax like their own villager,also he spend 2 years here training.it has been 5 years since he return.this village doesn''t rich or anything.it just warm.Because he is too busy with quest and get money for returning he never got a chance until today. "Ezax kun,thanks for helping this village and welcome back...no matter what we always welcome you."(Elder) "Thanks for that elder."(Ezax) many villager gave thanks to ezax.but hikari didn''t expect to see Ezax Smile this warmly....he rarely smiles. but his smiles today is so warm.Eliza cry...to begin with eliza is the kind of person who cries easily .Hikari already expect this... "Let has party!!!Party of ezax return!!!"(Innkeeper) "Hey,hey!!!You food is on the emergency line here..."(Ezax) "Don''t worry,we only need to capture some Boar or anything.don''t you agree everyone!!"(Innkeeper) "YEAH!!!"(Villager) Ezax sighed while scratch his head.This village is really amazing in its way,it makes him remember his farewell party.. "I kinda expect this so i capture 15 boar on way home."(Ezax) if the party doesn''t happen he can cook it..so it is fine. "AS EXPECTED FROM EZAX!!!Everyone today we has party."(Innkeeper) "YEAH!!"(Villager) Hikari eyes immediately knows what this mean.this is a chance to get approval of the whole village..now she must introduce herself!!but before she could grab Ezax hands someone already grabbed it! "Ezax!!So it is really you !Thank you for saving me today!!!"(Hostage) It is the girl who saved by ezax before...to think a girl could grab his hand....she never even allowed to grab his hands. "Lin can you release me first,my hands is hurting you know."(Ezax) he treated her kindly..if it was hikari it would hit her..at the same time Lin release her grab. "Sorry,i am just too happy ,because it has been 5 years since we part..Ezax,let''s talk at my home.."(Lin) Hikari immediately knows...she is a...RIVAL!!!!!!! "Ezax,what are you doing ?let''s help the village cook the meat,because the meat we cook is superb!!!"(Hikari) Compared to ezax ,hikari still amateur but her persistent help her at this kind of work.that''s why when they work together the food will be more delicious.it is also a way to drag ezax from her. "Ah,right.sorry lin let''s talk at another time"(Ezax) "Let me help too."(Eliza) "Ah thank you!!!"(Ezax) the innkeeper who watch this smile wryly then say "Wow,5 years gone and he is already lady killer what''s more all of them are beautiful not lose to you Lin.I really want to put in his position."(Innkeeper) lin immediately stamp his foot.. "What are you saying idiot father.i won''t lose to them you just watch."(Lin) "aw it hurts.....would you release me first!!"(Innkeeper) "Ah,sorry."(Lin) "Lin,if you only confess 5 years ago maybe the outcome will be different."(Innkeeper) "Ugh..."(Lin) Lin can only regret her childhood.if only she grow more intimate to him....she took it to lightly. "let me help you lin."(InnKeeper) the innkeeper cough then he talk with serious face. "Ezax,you are 16 years old right?how about live here and marry my daughter Lin?"(Innkeeper) the village immediately become silent.they also interested in this matter.but ezax still continue calm. "I refuse."(Ezax) Flat no tone ,Ezax keep slicing the meat.even though this is one of his favorite village and the the villager already save him.but he has no intention to stay here. "heh?Why?Isn''t lin a beatiful girl?Or you are a gay?"(Innkeeper) "because I am not interested in younger girl."(Ezax) the villager open their jaws just for something simple like that?you refuse the marriage with the most beautiful girl in the village?lin immediately feel like stabbed...if only she was born earlier...damn..while hikari glad...even thought it is only 1 years older ,she still older than him. "Don''t think bad of me,that is part of the reason,the real reason is because i need to return to my family,my family is waiting for me!!!my only family who left in the world."(Ezax) the reason he refuse,because he won''t allow himself until he can reunite with his family.his dad says his mother and sister won''t be killed.that''s why he must reunite with them and save them.until that day come he can''t stay here. "I see,anyway if you already meet your family return here.this is your home right."(Innkeeper) "Yeah."(Ezax) Hikari found it weird...isn''t it a great taboo for dragoon to married another race?Why Ezax family survived?even high class noble in dragoon kingdom will be killed.she though he only return because he want to visit their graves...looks like her thinking was too naive. after that everyone party happily and dance,but ezax don''t dance...Hikari and eliza also do that..if eliza are so rigid at dance and more interested in training.hikari only want to dance with ezax..after the party over and everyone fall asleep ezax go to nearby hill and watch the moon again...it is ezax habit to watch moon at night. "Hikari,how often do you want to follow me?"(Ezax) "until i know you more than anyone.one more thing Ezax are you a prince?"(Hikari) Hikari conclude this...if ezax doesn''t get killed when he was baby maybe because his parent went run with him,but his family survived then it means it holds position in kingdom...but not a normal position...it is royalty.only one who can get bypass that kind of law..it is the creator.. "I see for princess you are really to sharp.you know politic too much..but well it will get out sooner or later.i will tell you about my past..but if you told anyone i would kill you."(Ezax) Ezax even though act like a jerk toward hikari,hikari still sincere to him.because she truly loved him which is considered a pain.maybe if he tells the story maybe she will choose another person. "Ezax,i promise won''t tell anyone!!"(Hikari) "good."(Ezax) Chapter 13:Past of mine. Narrator POV 10 years ago. Dragoon continent.(Unknown place) Home garden. two child with black hair,the girl with years 1 year younger than his brother and his brother.the girls color was crimson eyes like her mother while the boy eyes was crimson and green share both their parent eyes.they were playing around watch by their parents.

"10 minutes."(Seria) "6 minutes?"(Ezax) he could hold that long but his leg will be in pain after that.because seria is too heavy for him. "Then i will keep sulking!"(Seria) after a long thinking ezax agree.he can hold that long "Okay,but don''t sulked anymore okay."(Ezax) "Yeah!!"(Seria) after Ezax piggyback her for a moment and having fun with her for all day.this was ezax daily life until his uncle which come from different mother come.that night ezax doesn''t understand what his parents says.but he was send away.before he send away seria ask him to sleep together. "Nii-sama can we sleep together today?"(Seria) "Sure..."(Ezax) after they turn off the lamb Seria begin to ask her.. "Nii-sama...will we meet again?"(Seria) Seria was teary,she was on verge of crying "What are you saying of course we would meet again!!I Promised you once this over i will be always with you!!!! So don''t cry."(Ezax) "Pinky promise,brother?hiks"(Seria) "yeah.."(Ezax) ezax hug her tightly...he think why he must part from his family...why...tears slowly streaming from his eyes.he can only cry... the next day he was brought by his uncle by horse carriage then the horse carriage was get into an accident....he was brought by evil looking guy handcuffed.....walk slowly follow the evil looking guy while looking at burning horse carriage. he was locked in basement given many poison then cured.

"Ezax,you will always payback what you owes aren''t you..now you owe me."(Hikari) ...right on the money...she really understood me to well. ... "What i want is...marriage.."(Hikari) she blushed.....i should expect this.....but still i can''t promise her...because i payback for what i owes,by help them.in limit of my ability or my desire. "Maybe if only i really fall in love you.but i doubt you could."(Ezax) "don''t worry..i am pretty sure you will fall in love with me before that ,that''s why i will make sure you don''t forget about this because you are kinda tricky.by marking you~~~~"(Hikari) "Eh?."(Ezax) before i can react,she immediately kiss me..2 second to understand what happens after that i push her away in reflect. "...aw looks like it still far away...but one day...i will make sure .you will kiss me at your own intention."(Hikari) She release my hands and then she turn around humming and return ...really...this why girl is more dangerous than monster..i can''t understand their way thinking at all...it is maybe a mistake to accept her help..well what has happened can''t be taken back i can only accept it.... Chapter 14:Eliza situations Today i dream that dream again,dream about my happy childhood.It has been 3 years since that day,i don''t know why i suddenly dream. better wake up and go the next city.as i open my eyes hikari was in front of me....yesterday it was fafnir do the night watch....i will punish him later...you will never learn don''t you. I kick her out from the bed.she wake up and rub her head..then i pretend to sleep. "Uh,Ezax sure has bad habit when she sleep,but he got cute sleeping face,so i don''t mind at all.before he wake up should i kiss him ?Yesterday he pushed me~~If i am not in be offensive then i will be old before i know!"(Hikari) okay i heard something dangerous,i wake up then take out the paper fan stand up from the bed.. "Eh,Ezax did you hear what i say?It is a joke,it is really just a joke..believe me."(Hikari) sound to me you are really serious..... "Any last word...."(Ezax) "No...."(Hikari) smack!!!!!!today the day was started with someone shout ouw....for a while....then a dragon roar in pain.they think it must be dream so they continue to sleep.. 2 hours later. we are having breakfast then we will go to the next city..as i eat bread and drink some hot chocolate while reading chemist book.Eliza and hikari sit in front of me at opposing table. "Eliza,I just sleep beside him and he punish me."(Hikari) "Hikari- san,it isn''t just...it is already crime...to begin with isn''t it should be Master the one who did that?why the role reversed here?"(ELiza) That is my question,but she grow more and more offensive,now i am worried about myself...i should say no to her help if know this.her crazy dream is easy compared to her request to marry her.maybe i should commit suicide before it happen? "Ezax are tsundere...if i act like gentle girl,i will be grandma before i knew."(Hikari) You are too overthinking,well i am to lazy to comment.learning alchemist sure hard,maybe i should tried to making some..i just can do theory aren''t i?suddenly hikari took my book from me... "Ezax,it is not a good manner to read book while reading,you should eat normally."(Hikari) "don''t be unreasonable,it is only reading book sure people won''t mind."(Ezax) Beside i don''t have anything to talk with you guys anyway so why i must stop reading book. "If you don''t stop doing this i will keep take your book and you need to learn some table manner,it is necessary for future ,bear with it."(Hikari) ?????????the one who cares manner are you nobles and royalty.why i should-wait a minute..future? "I refuse,i don''t plan to marry you!!You are out of my strike zone!!I only like girls who older than me."(Ezax) "I am older than you,i am 17 while you are 16."(Hikari) ....fu ck...she was right..i forgot she was 17.. "Fu ck off!!!I WILL NEVER MARRY YOU! EVER!!"(Ezax) "say anything you want,before we could part you will already fall in love and marry me.beside don''t you already promised when you fall in love with me you will accept my proposal?"(Hikari) Yesteday,i dig my own grave,,,i should keep it silent.Eliza then intrude in our talk. "Master,did you really promised that?"(Eliza) "yeah,it is payment for her to agree with my crazy request. ."(Ezax) "Then master dig her own grave,because Hikari-san was beauty what''s more she isn''t like spoiled princess and gentle.she is caring and kind girl near every prince met her fall in love with her."(Eliza) Are the prince blind or what?don''t they see this girl only source of problem?Normal girl is less pain than her. "Hikari-san never act offensive,maybe she is too reckless but she act with a care,i doubt master can''t fall in love with her."(Eliza) ......maybe i should bang my head into the wall,it is really a mistake to let her in my party.i put my head on table doesn''t has any energy left. "really do you hate me that much?"(hikari) Hikari indeed kind and caring,but her persistent on me ,made my head hurts..but it isn''''t because i hate her or anything,i just found it pain. "Yes,i do."(Ezax) "Then why you let me surprise kiss you yesterday?.if you hate surely you will keep guard up.you don''t hate me..then sure you like me to some extent.(Hikari) ah....the entire table went silent.thanks god this end was empty today because the knight yesterday. "Master,i expect hikari love are one sided,i don''t know that is mutual!!"(Eliza) ELiza also missunderstood...okay you shameless girl...today is your death. "Eliza,it isn''t mutual,do you see any relation ship like this?""(Ezax) i use my mithril whip to bind her.. "Eh?What did i do wrong?"(Hikari) Hikari sweat like crazy...i only give him smile...but of course this is not you called good smile.. "Don''t get cocky because yesterday you shameless girl!!"(Ezax) i take out my paper fan,and someone cry resounded....Eliza also begin to feel afraid of me a bit. after that..we parted from village...the villager say today is sure noisy but they don''t know why. but they don''t mind it because it is better to be noisy than silent. as we walk through the forest which is the Landirgo forest because there is Many landirgo here.they are B rank monster but they are very passive and friendly..so this forest rather safe. If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. "Aw,my head still hurts."(Hikari) "Master,you are too much,you hit her times,doesn''t it to severe.."(Eliza) "Ask this rock headed girl!!why she is persistent with loving me,i am really sure i don''t do anything that could make her fall in love with me."(Ezax) i am pretty sure treated harshly i never given her praise nor give her any gift that she likes. "I don''t want to tell you.it is maiden secret."(Hikari) She is tight lipped,i don''t needs to worry she will slip up. "Master,Pardon with my intrusion but can i stay outside at the next city?"(Eliza) hmm?why she asking that?i can''t let her stay outside while stay inside.the next city was Helos city.it was city where many knight live.to be honest i am pretty sure that she want to come in. "Why?"(Ezax) "To be honest master,i was daughter born from concubine but i inherit dad crimson hair which make all of their son and daughter become jealous so they always bully me.."(Eliza) "But aren''t you already separated from them?I mean you stay in my kingdom you know?"(Hikari) "Hikari-san the reason i don''t learn any battle art because my family suppression,my family is well known for being strongest knight what''s more there is many B rank adventurer and even A rank with my dad S rank.i don''t want you guys to suffer because of me.(Eliza) I pat her head..really if you don''t like it you should be honest to yourself.Eliza was shorter than so it was easy to pat her,she is blushing. "Don''t worry as long you with me,i won''t let you get bullied trust me."(Ezax) "yeah.."(Eliza) i keep pat her head,the mood was good until hikari ruin it.can you read the mood at all. "Ezax me too!!"(Hikari) "you don''t need ANY Comfort at all."(Ezax) "I am the main heroine here!!!"(Hikari) "Who cares about that?You are just pain in ass to me."(Ezax) "Meanie!!!"(Hikari) we become argue with each other,Eliza who see this bloom with smile,finally smile from your heart huh?well i never expect eliza was the daughter of him....the only S rank knight still active...Killy Leos ,he is nice guy why he kick her own daughter?i don''t understand at all.the reason i am confused because i was friend with him.looks like i need to pay him visit... "Anyway Eliza you should believe in Ezax more,he is also S ranker and with me as heroine we won''t lose."(Hikari) "Thank you hikari-san ,thank you master."(Eliza) Eliza mood immediately become good,i don''t know why while i talking with hikari my worries was blown off and i know i could trust her...really what a rare girl.. narrator POV Helos city. Noble mansion A bulky guy was talking to guild master the savior of ezax and Hikari uncle(Real father) the bulky guy has mustache and he wear a black suit with his red hair which suit his appearance . "Yo,Farris how are ya?"(Bulky guy) "Long time no see killy,but still doesn''t you only love one girl?Why you has many wifes?"(Farris/guild master) "They just want my child or something like that,well they offer themselves so i will just satisfy myself !!Wahaha!!"(Killy) Killy was an easygoing guy since beginning farris knows still isn''t it the reason his lover run to another city?since he knew her of course she treat her well. "How is eliza doing?Is she fine?i heard that she quit knighthood"(Killy) "She is with ezax now and my daughter."(Farris) "Ezax,huh the person my daughter choose is really interesting.It is also good timing."(Killy) Farris see killy grin wryly.it is bad omen it means it has something to do.. "I plan to give our family heirloom to Eliza,but with her power now i doubt she could win but if it is win then surely She will win.Ezax are abnormal to begin with just for the sake of his family he willing to start war to the strongest race in history."(Killy) "Isn''t it good?Compared to hypocrite person who wish to achieve something but never try he is ten times better.beside he put his intention not words that''s why i feel relieved when i know Hikari choose him."(Farris) hearing that Killy laugh more ,he totally agree with Farris..that man was like his father... "Kukuku,i want to meet him again it has been year since i meet him.i want to fight him."(Killy) he lick his own lips . "Please give him some mercy will you?Don''t undo the seal of yours,i can''t help you if you do that."(Farris) "You sucker,if it was"Him" then surely he wants me to go all out isn''t he?"(Killy) "I am not him,i can''t stop you easily like him."(Farris) They were talking about ezax father ,Their ezax father is the god of knight,master of magic and sword. "WIl you stay here farris?watching the competition for heirloom?"(Killy) "Good idea,i am pretty bored myself governing the kingdom ."(Farris) "Glad we has same idea!!!HAHAHAhaha"(Killy) Farris smile and continue drink tea,he want to see how strong Ezax for staying 4 years in another continent. "This will be interesting i guess."(Farris) Chapter 15:Uproar in the city. "So this is helos city.its wall sure huge.."(Hikari) As soon as we arrive at helos city Hikari was amazed with the sigh of wall,it is normal the wall is 1000 meter height circled the city,i don''t know why it created that high though and it is very thick,but this city defend is really to much..but still today is sure full i never expect this many.. "Hey hikari,what are you doing let''s get in!"(Ezax) "Okay,but ezax the line sure long,i think it will took 3 hours at best.."(Hikari) well the line sure was long it is 500 meter long.it is 4 around four hours if we get in line. "Master,we should get in line too."(Eliza) "For what?i don''t like to wait,that is why i always prepare back door."(Ezax) They don''t understand,well i was well known in this city,so it will be easy for me,because i can use the door for soldier not gate for civilian. "Hey,can you open the door please ,my party want to get in."(Ezax) "Please get in line the door only open for returning knight or royalty,sorry but you can''t pass."(Soldier) i show my adventurer id card.This is the kind of time when adventurer id come handy. "Ezax-sama ,forgive for my rudeness but today line was packed if you don''t mind could you get in line?!!"(Soldier) "that is not possible ,if i am not hurry Killy will kill me."(Ezax) "You know lord killy??? "Yeah,i am his friend..if you don''t believe me you can ask superior for anyone who knows my name sure know that i am his friend."(Ezax) it sure come handy my connection with him..the soldier face grow pale then he open the door. I am very sorry for action please come in.."(Soldier) Killy name''s and my adventurer id sure come handy.seeing this Hikari and eliza face cramped.. "what are you doing?Let''s get in."(Ezax) "Yeah..."(Hikari and eliza) after we get in,we found the street packed...it is so packed....i doubt any good inn i know here will be empty...should i ask killy? "Ezax...you are so cheap.."(Hikari) "Got any problem with it?I don''t want to wait of course i will use my connection."(Ezax) "But master,who is this killy?Is he someone famous?"(Eliza) there is no need to hide that i don''t know him.well it is better she knows. "Yep,He is the S rank knight the number one in city."(Ezax) hikari who heard this immediately ask.. "Is he Eliza''s father?"(Hikari) "Yep,he is Eliza''s father."(Ezax) i answer nonchalantly.they will found it soon anyway once i get in killy sure will know and get me to stay at his mansion.still for being knight he act to carefree. "Master just what are you?To become friend with my dad who often kick the guy who try to berfriend him..."(Eliza) "I don''t know,but he said he likes my honesty and treat me as his friend of course i often practice battle with him."(Ezax) the last time we meet was 1 year ago the same time i return from continent,before he often clash with him when he was 12 years old,he isn''t sore loser,,he is kind of guy that you can talk and act like an adult ..even though he is rather an idiot.. "I Bet you lost all of them."(Hikari) "10 to 9,i was nine well it doesn''t count though because he take easy on me."(Ezax) Guild master says if he act serious then surely i will lose..well i know though he often do that to test me,my mastery with spear,sword and katana was because of him.i am rather fond guy like that..guy that didn''t hide anything.unlike some guild master... "Master,you already amazing, even he take easy on me and sibling we never won."(Eliza) Really?i guess he is someone who don''t want to lose to his child. "Eliza,if you don''t want to meet your father then i won''t force you ,we will search for an empty inn.do what you want ,don''t think what i want to do.."(Ezax) Eliza though for a moment,immediately i notice hikari bring three kebab ,when does she buy it? "Don''t think so hard,for now let''s have fun!!"(Hikari) so carefree.....but she is right i doubt this is a simple matter,more likely something going on ,something big.Just what are that guy doing anyway.ignoring us hikari continue to go another stall.don''t get lost you shameless girl.. "Eliza,at this rate we will lost hikari,let''s go."(Ezax) "Yes master!!"(Eliza) Narrator POV Killy was watching them from hill,but he kinda mad at ezax. "That guy ,i told him when he got in he should go to my mansion and now he is flirting with my daughter and your daughter he sure got guts!!!"(Killy) "why should i be dragged along,can you let them cherish this moment?"(Farris) farris was dragged along,to be exact they already watching since beginning before Ezax''s party get in.Killy continue to watching Eliza then suddenly see Eliza made smile that very suit her and she was happy.Hikari and ezax also smiled you could tell they were having fun as friend.but killy think other wise. "No,no,no!!!!Their relationship went way to fast!!!!"(Killy) "Wow,My daughter sure is offensive to think she use trap to get indirect kiss !!!Eliza was forced to take part too!!"(Farris) "Crack*the wall was cracked.. "THAT BRAT!!!HOW DARE HE FLIRT IN FRONT OF ME!!!WHAT"S MORE WITH MY DAUGHTER!!!!DO YOU WANT ME TO KILL ME ?DO YOU WANT TO KILL ME BECAUSE JEALOUSLY ?YOU STINKY BRAT!!!"(Killy) farris though was simple."isn''t it us who spy on them?"but he can say it outlook if a fight break then it will be a disaster...this guy hates flirting because simple thing...he never flirt like this in his own life,all of them only do an act for his gene..his loved wife never flirt him,only smile some times...that''s why he jealous seeing couple like this.sometimes he even try to throw knifes toward the couple was flirting.now he is trying to do so...now he is already throw it.then he check with binocular to see ezax is fine.but ezax catch it with 2 finger then he put in dimensional rings. "That brat!!!TO think he can easily catch it!!!HE GETS COCKY ISN"T IT?"(Killy) This story has been unlawfully obtained without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon. From ezax point of view if he dodge it then it will hit another person ,that''s why he catch it,but no way killy knows..now see this hikari and eliza was worried...when they see ezax was fine they was smile while being relieved.. "BRAT TODAY IS YOUR DEATH !!!!"(Killy) He tried to go to ezax,but farris stop him..if fight went break out it will be huge problem,what''s more the street was packed... "Please you are a respectable adult aren''t you?Please act like one."(farris) "Right,why i should feel jealously because him,he is only lucky .."(Killy) He use his binocular then he see farris''s daughter was near fall then he catch her gently,she was blushed..the binocular was near crack when he see this .he tried to calm down...that''s isn''t her daughter.he say calm down ten times then continue to watch them....then he see eliza was separated because of the crowd....finally he sigh relieve but it doesn''t last long because...ezax immediately hold her hand and pull her out of the crowd he also hold hikari hands......his mind was processing while farris looks with interest. "That guy!!!Maybe the day i see my granddaughter isn''t far!!He is natural born playboy!!This is gonna be interesting!!Let''s watch him more!!"(Farris) He tried to check killy reaction,he notice killy was gone.. "Don''t tell me..Please be safe ezax.!!!!"(Farris) farris immediately run to ezax''s group. Ezax POV. "really you guys sure be careful,it will be bad if you fall on this crowd or was separated."(Ezax) we were walk in street with no crowd...even now Eliza wasstill blushing.but nor ezax notice it and care for it...only hikari bloom with full smile... "Ezax,you hold my hands and held me gently when i fall!!kyaa remember that just make me embarassed."(Hikari) MAYBE I SHOULD LET YOU FALL!! SO IT COULD REPAIR YOUR HEAD!then i feel killing intent...no this is jealous....who? "EZAX,TODAY IS YOUR DEATH!!!"(Killy) ......killy-san.............why you see me with eyes like that..? "Father?"(Eliza) "how dare..you..HOW DARE YOU TO FLIRT IN FRONT OF ME!!!"(Killy) "WHO IS FLIRTING YOU DAMN BLOCK HEAD!!!"(Ezax) FLIRTING WITH THEM!!!I WILL NEVER EVER FALL IN LOVE WITH THEM!!! I POINT MY MIDDLE FINGER ON HIM!! "DAD!!!DON"T HURT HIM!! HE IS MY MASTER!!!"(Eliza) I don''t know why i can read his expression it tells me that my relationship and eliza already went that far...my dream...and he got it easily...NONONO YOU ARE WRONG!!! i quickly deny it..i feel my life is in serious danger. "EZAX ,PLEASE DIE!!!"(KILLY) the beast already went rampage....what will i do?wait...doesn''t he said...... "KILLY!!! THERE IS CHICKCOW BEHIND YOU!!!"(Ezax) "WHERE!!"(Killy) good then i hold both of their hands and we run from the scene...after 3 hours run finally i lost his sight...now we are at hill...thanks god he easy to fool with chickencow which is chicken with the size of cow...he is glutton to begin with...he always say if he went berserk i must say that so i can run.Hikari only smile with satisfaction while eliza face doesn''t look relieved.. "Father,did he hate me so much?did he get that angry because of me?"(Eliza) so she though that...she missunderstood. "Eliza,i think he care you,he always boast about you know,beside he is angry because of me he think we are in relationship and feel his daughter want to be taken that''s why he is that angry."(Ezax) that''s is my conclusion,don''t know if its right though.then i pat her head. "that''s why you don''t need to think everything is your fault.don''t blame everything on yourself."(Ezax) "Sorry master."(Eliza) eliza life maybe was too rigid,well she let out often...still where must stay ? "Fuh,ezax you are safe.."(guild master) "Uncle..what are you doing here?"(Hikari) hikari immediately wake up from her satisfaction.. "Meeting with killy,hey ezax from your expression i can''t tell that you need place to stay aren''t you?"(Guild master) as expected of uncle,i nod my head... "I will get you one,but~~~~ You must kiss let hikari kiss you.."(Guild master) "I see,then i will refuse..."(Ezax) there is no need,i will gladly sleep outside then let she kiss me.. "THIS ISN"T REQUEST THIS IS AN ORDER!!!"(GUILDMASTER) YOU DEMON!!!!!i try to run but my leg was hold by some tree branch...fu ck...it is his magic... "Hikari,feel free to eat him!!!"(Guildmaster) "Thank you uncle!!!I I will remember about this forever~~~"(Hikari) nononononononononononononononononono,as i tried to defend myself suddenly i see killy beside uncle.. "GOOD FOR YOU !!!TO BE ASSAULTED BY THE WOMAN YOU LOVE!!!!HOW LUCKY YOU ARE!!"(KILLY) He clearly jealous,so it is becauase he is jealous!!wait i can i use this!! "KILLY-san!!IT WAS UNCLE THE ONE WHO PLANNED THIS HE WANTS TO KILL YOU WITH JEALOUSLY!!BELIEVE ME!!THERE IS NO WAY THIS KIND OF SCENE EXIST!!"(Ezax) it does exist though like now.. "FARRIS!!!!!!SO YOU ARE THE ONE WHO MANIPULATE THIS!!!"(Killy) "NO!!! ITS IS CLEARLY LIE!!!THERE IS NO WAY I CAN MANIPULATE THAT MUCH!!!"(FARRIS) AS i defend myself from hikari i cut the branch with my swords and roll to the right. "Think killy,which is more logical!!is it logical to see guy flirt with 2 flowers at hands!!"(Ezax) i really didn''t flirt though,but i must save my life..sorry uncle.. "FARRIS Any last words?"(Killy) "Ezax,you bastard!!!"(Farris) fuh for now i am safe...now i should teach hikari her position isn''t it?,... "SORRY !!!"(Hikari) she tried to run but i bind her with my whip...now how many times i must hit you until i satisfied? "There is two demons here..."(Eliza) i don''t understand what eliza said,well time for punishment.. Chapter 16:Training and guidance. Killy mansion,garden area. "Fuh,Ezax you are really a friend that can i count on."(Killy) "Thanks for the compliment."(Ezax) I and killy drinking our favorite drink and relieved.maybe this is what you called relaxing isn''t it?Eliza who can''t relax then speak to us. "Umm master,and father aren''t you to much?i mean i know they are wrong still to hang them is too much."(Eliza) we hang them on the tree in front of us of course we make sure to watch so they don''t run and they can''t say anything because we silence them with handkerchief .well both of them noble beside they already suffer enough.I go to Hikari and prepare to untie her. "What are you doing ezax?you should let her hang for one day."(Killy) "If she get sick,then it would be problem for me beside i think they already suffer enough."(Ezax) i take out handkerchief from her mouth. "I am sorry,i won''t do it again."(Hikari) "as long you understand ."(Ezax) i untie her and help her stand up.after that we continue drinking tea. "Still same as always eh?you always treat your friend nice or someone you owe with a lot of care."(Killy) "it is my principle of life to return what i owe ,this isn''t just exclusive to kindness though."(Ezax) at least she owes me more than that.hearing that he laugh a lot .he always like this laugh whenever he feel happy.What a carefree guy. "Anyway,my party is now here,could you explain why the town was so crowded?"(Ezax) "Why don''t we have fun first?let''s drink beer!!!!"(Killy) Hmmm,looks like he doesn''t want to tell me,must be something very important .knowing if i heard most likely i will be serious for most days.if he doesn''t tell me than let''s wait,let''s do a daily training.then i ask him. "Do you mind if we train here for a while?(Ezax) "Feel free to do so."(Killy) Eliza and hikari then stand up and prepare themselves ,they take out wooden sword and wooden rapier .we use wooden weapon because we afraid to hurt each other beside wooden weapon is made by me which weight the same as weapon we use. "Are you a child ?Training with wooden weapon what kind of joke is that?Eliza-san."(Someone ) An annoying guy appear from the hallway.. "Brother Blaze!!"(Eliza) ?so he is son of killy?must be her mom teaching because if it is killy teaching then the child will be hot blooded. "Well,father why you bother with this child?Her level now only basic understanding am i wrong?"(Blaze) from eliza reaction which shown disturbed and Killy face with disdain,looks like he is one the source of family problem.Eliza looks like doesn''t want to rebute because with my training she now was at ending level. "Eliza,Hikari what are you doing?Instead seing the wall of hallway you should focus fight me.."(Ezax) i often met this kind of noble who born from good lineage and was good for nothing but become good for nothing and be cocky to each other because his lineage.when something doesn''t go well as he wish he will hinder the opposing rival by using his family name,literally they are trash of society and we don''t need to pay attention to thrash. "Hey You son of bitch!!!I bet you envy me a lot because you son of a bitch!Because i was the son of the greatest knight !!!Bow before me and ask forgiveness and i will forgive you!"(Blaze) hikari who is angry at him try to fight him,but if we involved fight with him then it would be a pain to clean some trash of society . "Hey,hikari where are you going ?Toilet?"(Ezax) "But,he doesn''t know his place?i won''t be satisfied until i give him some slap!!"(Hikari) "Who?Does anyone nearby?I only see killy,Uncle and eliza here."(Ezax) hikari give me confused look,then she understood what i mean. "I see,a trash literally don''t need attention.okay ezax!!!Let''s train!! Today i will hit you!!"(Hikari) she then humming as usual,it is good lesson for her actually.trash like him are endless in this world,so better pay it no mind unless it hinder you or anything. "Who are you calling trash!!!You son of a bitch!!"(Blaze) "Eliza,how is your progress going?Are you already getting used dash and slice?"(Ezax) Love what you''re reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on. ignoring him like air,i ask eliza who was in panic.. "Yes,but master -"(Eliza) "Then you already beginning master level,other technique than that are useless so you don''t need,let''s see how about i teach you cross slash?"(Ezax) "But master!!aren''t sword bash in beginning master level are good?I mean the power is good and it give quite stun,or Sword cleave which boast awesome power!!"(Eliza) What eliza say is right,but it has a huge minus to it. "It is too easy to dodge ,you need to swing the sword from your back which is too slow and easy to read.both of them are skill just for show anyway!!''(Ezax) I only give her good technique that suits her and moves that useful not just for show. "Are you an idiot?as long it hit then it won''t be problem!!It can easily kill monster!!dash and slice?It will only tire you out!!"(Blaze)'' Hearing that Eliza nod.i am still ignoring him though. "Eliza,maybe you think the move is good because it has some power ,but it won''t do anything to B rank Adventurer or C rank monster they will already killed you before use it."(Ezax) when you swing your swords from back they will claw you and died.there is many faster animal than us.we don''t need risk ourselves just to use such idiotic technique which power is only average. "Dash and slice is good technique because you can use it to past some enemies and the power is already good.even if you miss you already went pass them it is moves that hard to counter.it minus only cost a quite good stamina because you need to run at your maximum speed,but your stamina is already trained by me so you don''t need to worry about it.(Ezax) Killy who is watching us give me thumbs up and i give him thumbs up back.looks like he is happy because i teach her daughter a good lesson and agree with my way of thinking. "Master,thanks for guiding me all this time!!"(Eliza) She bow to me.again.. "Eliza,i told you to stop bowing to me right?thanks already enough beside i am your friend didn''t i?"(Ezax) it is awkward to see her bowed every time because she is older than me,of course it is the same to my master nick,but i already getting used to it.i think master as my nick names. "Okay,master."(Eliza) she smiled happily.. "Ezax then how about me ?Slicing hornet?"(Hikari) "It is good offensive tech but you need more strength to use ,because if you can''t pierce opponent defense than it will be useless.many of them think it is useless tech because many rapier user are lacking strength but i know your strength is above average well not high as eliza though.because you focus more on speed.once you has enough strength to use it i will teach you another moves."(Ezax) Cross Slash and slice hornet are tech of intermediate knowing.well i teach her more about magic though because her strength is only above average but her precision is really scary i doubt i can beat her at that one. "HOW DARE YOU TO IGNORE TO FLIRT GIRLS IN FRONT OF ME!!"(Blaze) ah this is from Killy!!but killy i know must see that i only teach the girls how to fight..or not because i found his cup handle cracked.Really can you see how serious am at this? "Die!!"(Blaze) i dodge him then swing my wooden sword at his wrist with all i have .it breaks his arm!!! "IT HURTS,HOW DARE YOU TO HURT ME ,Father HE HURTS ME PLEASE KILL HIM!"(Blaze) Killy only drink his tea ignoring him. I then stomp on him which made him fall on the ground then stand up on him. "IT HURTS,IT HURTS!!"(Blaze) "Anyway,Hikari and Eliza we should start training i won''t move even an inch from this place try to hit me with all of your might!!The time limit is three hours!!"(Ezax) "MOVE FROM ME!!!You bastards!!"(Blaze) i stomp his head so he can''t talk. "Anyway i will be very serious!!!any hit and our training is over!!don''t need to hold back!!"(Ezax) i means they just fight as usual,Hikari must be angry i worried if she hold back well Eliza will fight seriously because what i done is cruel actually still why he stay here?not in kingdom ?Must be some important event.....well let''s begin!! Chapter 17:A plan for heirloom competition. "Ezax,it has been more than three hours please get away from him.he already passed out."(Killy) Killy remind me,about the "corpse" that i use as carpet.oh well the battle is too heated up. "Ah,really?time went fast."(Hikari) "My happy time end ,why when we happy ,time goes fast."(Ezax) "Master,that''s isn''t very good attitude..."(Eliza) looks like eliza hate me when i did this,oh well he the one who tried to attack me first.beside we got his dad witness so don''t need to worry. "anyway,Eliza you are already pretty good,keep training in 2 or 3 month you could move me by yourself.Hikari, your precision are to scary even my wooden sword and wooden spear are on verge breaking."(Ezax) really to think she hit the same spot 15 times in that battle.that is rather crazy.i doubt myself can do that.but mainly reason because her persistent. "Really?Yay ezax praise me!!"(Hikari) "Thanks master,but please move from there.."(Eliza) "Oops i forgot."(Ezax) i still stand up on his body.i jump back and throw him to the hallway..well he didn''t die at least. "Anyway,you train has bear a little,let''s eat outside it is my treat!"(Ezax) we divide the moneys we retrieve from quest equally .if you want to buy anything for yourself for example some accessory you need to take it from your own pocket.for equipment and food will be deducted from the quest fees after that we will divide it. "Thanks Ezax!!"(Hikari) "thank you master."(Eliza) As we prepared to eat outside Killy grab my shoulder to stop me. "Wait,Ezax.why don''t we eat together ?It has been long time.!(Killy) "Why?aren''t your family here?It would be awkward if i participate too."(Ezax) There is no way we can eat with full of your concubine son and wife.i mean i don''t like the atmosphere,how to explain it...it kind of gloomy. i can''t relax when i with them. "Don''t worry we will have dinner after everyone finish theirs.how about it?"(Killy) why he is so persistent?Does he has something that i don''t want to know in this city?Hikari notice this told me to come here.i should discuss it with her. "Wait for a minute let me talk with my friend first."(Ezax) i go to hikari and Eliza. "Looks like he doesn''t want us to know about the event or anything like that ."(Hikari) hikari whisper me .she will notice it ,i mean he is too forceful..of course everyone will notice something wrong. "I predicted that much,but why he keep it secret from me?He is the kind of person that didn''t hide anything from his friend .i don''t understand why he must hide it."(Ezax) hmm,just what is he hide from me.if its something bad he will ask for my help. "Maybe it involved you?in bad way i mean."(Hikari) "Ah,hikari-san that is certainly plausible ,Father was famous for it recklessness .maybe he make a mistake that will be huge problem."(Eliza) "Still,it doesn''t sound right if its problem then he will ask for my help.He is that kind of guy."(Ezax) Now ,i don''t understand more and more...just what is he hiding. ".........oh.....now i remember why he hide it."(Hikari) "Hmm?why?"(Ezax) she scratch her cheek then her eye falls elsewhere.For the first time her eyes shows that she can''t absolutely tell me about it. "Looks like i was found out,but ezax please don''t get angry okay?"(Killy) as question mark appear on my head i was pretty shocked too.he never say sorry before.. "Actually,know you are coming i hold exhibition match a duel between my son and you.we are friend right?Forgive me kay?"(Killy) oh?You has guts to ask me that..knowing i hate to be famous ...i just give him smile then i said to eliza and hikari. "Hikari,Eliza let''s go we will sleep at nearby inn then take some quest and train there."(Ezax) "Right.there is no need for you to show off here.it will be bad if you got any fan club (Hikari) "Master,i agree with hikari-san a good knight will never show his skill so let''s eat master."(Eliza) as we prepared to leave he go to in front of us and beg me... "I will give you A spatial storage ring!!A b rank one !!"(Killy) "Too cheap.."(Ezax) you think you can bribe me huh?you should know that i hate to be famous. "Then how about Soluna?"(Killy) "No-wait?Are you crazy?that is heirloom of your family isn''t it?why you are giving it to me?"(Ezax) You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story. "It is no big deal,My son and daughter no one could use it.even some of them learn about double blade.they can use it well instead let it rust because no one use it or be stolen i rather let you use it."(Killy) A dragon slayer...that weapon is the ultimate weapon for killing dragon because it sharpness it can easily penetrates dragon scale,it is even sharper than my mithril weapon.what''s more it is imbued with fire at one edge and the other side with ice. "At first, i plan to give it to the strongest child,but none of them fulfill my criteria so by exhibition match i can at least give reason to give it to you by let you beat the winner."(Killy) So it is for exhibition...still why i got feeling he already planned it?..wait a minute... "Killy what is your strongest child adventurer rank?"(Ezax) "A rank ,even though like that his strength is only B rank high tier and he is twenty years old."(Killy) "when the competition start?"(Ezax) "1 week from now."(Killy) I see ,i had enough time to do so...if right now maybe there is chance for me not to show myself.. "Okay,i agree ,i will forgive you this time."(Ezax) "As expected of ezax,you need dragon slayer to fulfill your dream aren''t you?as thanks let''s eat together outside .it will be my treat."(Killy) "Thanks."(Ezax) ''Let me change my clothes,it will be pain if wear this noble clothes.oh i should untie Farris too."(Killy) oh yeah uncle still hang on tree...still to sleep in that position..he sure is amazing.after Killy wake him up they go change their clothes and they gone hikari then ask me. "Just what you planned Ezax,no matter what you agree to it easily."(Hikari) "As expected of master."(Eliza) looks like i accidentally let her read my expression.well i need to explain it to hikari and eliza. "Well,there is no need for me to fight,beside this is good chance for eliza."(Ezax) "Me?"(Eliza) she point herself. "Yeah,chance for yourself to show the result of your training ."(Ezax) I grin to her,she become more confused "ah,i know your plan now...so sly.to use eliza..really "(Hikari) "use me ?what do you mean?(Eliza) "To win the prize of course.."(Ezax) immediately she knows what i mean. "Yes,i will make you champion.don''t worry."(Ezax) of course once she win the prize i won''t appear in exhibition i will abandon it.no one will know about me anyway.so it is fine beside she will get dragon slayer weapon which boost our strength more!!what a good luck. Narrator POV while ezax telling their plan,farris and killy was walking slowly in the mansion. "Is this enough farris?Will my daughter won the competition ?"(Killy) "Of course,knowing him sure he will notice it the way to get the prize but no participating ."(Farris) Farris knows ezax very well that''s why he will use his clever way of thinking and use him to help killy. "Still will my daughter won?I mean she is B rank low right..can she won with A rank?"(Killy) "You underestimate your daughter to much.from all of your child i can''t say she is the most talented and hardworking what''s more she has good eyes."(Farris) Killy who know what it means by good eyes.laugh a lot..he agree with him. "Ezax,are a good teacher instead stick with manual he will create his own way,he doesn''t give a fuck to other people say or way.he will create his own path to reach it instead walking with through manual he will create shortcut."(Killy) for example,slice and dash...it isn''t technique that good.but it shown he creates a mutant one from that.he combine the blade bash and slice and dash.with that it gives enough strength and stun the opponent so they can counter.Her daughter doesn''t notice it because she was empty to begin with.so that is good chance.with that all minus point are minimal and the use will be max. "His battle sense was from his mom,while his intelligence from his father of course he would be strong.though because of that he is childish i mean...he hate coffee and tea.he likes sweet or anything child likes."(farris) "Who cares?As long he person that i can talk with i don''t care."(killy) "You are to carefree...i mean if he become my successor he need to learn that much."(Farris) "No way,he isn''t boring like you!wahahaahaha"(Killy) Farris sighed..Still for now he though there is only small chance hikari and ezax be together..though for now all he can do is watch. Chapter 18:Eliza training The dinner yesterday was very awkward but i get some new information to enemy.that all of them hate Eliza,no rather than hate they are jealous of Eliza red hair.Really what a disgusting people..The next day we go outside to train.i focosed on Eliza while hikari keep on watch.of course if i left hikari it will be bad that''s why i bring her along. "Hey Eliza how about you try use Double blades?"(Ezax) "Eh,i can''t do that!!"(Eliza) She refuse immediately.her reason maybe .. "Are you afraid Eliza?afraid of them?"(Ezax) She doesn''t answer me,looks like i was right...Double blades.Eliza maybe are suited more to it.compared to single or two handed swords she maybe excel more at double blades.Her eyes when she see Soluna are more like admiration..i believe she want to learn it. "I can hear it voices.....the Soluna wants me to use it.it has been since child i heard it and since i born i was attracted to it.."(Eliza) "Then why you run from it?running from your responsibility."(Ezax) Soluna,i never expect that is also live magical weapon.a magical weapon that has it consciousness.even if it was me then i doubt i could use it. "Master,but surely there is better person who can use it better than me right master!!There is no need for me to win the tournament."(Eliza) I see that,explain her behaviour all this time this is bad...instead training i must help her mentally first. "Hikari who see this go to eliza and ask her. "Just what are you afraid of Eliza."(Hikari) "Hikari-san ,i don''t afraid of anything.it just i am not worth of it."(Eliza) i hit her with my fist. "I don''t care about what you say.but i will ask you once again?Will you continue running?Lying to oneself just for us?"(Ezax) "I..."(Eliza) "Until you can answer me,we won''t start the training so i will wait.Hikari please leave her alone for a while."(Ezax) Hikari nods then we sit not far from her leave her thinking about it..then i lean on trees. "What are you thinking Ezax?aren''t it normal for a person to be afraid of something?Ezax, you don''t need to hit her."(Hikari) She worried about Eliza,i am the same as Hikari that''s why i do this. "Hikari,even though you berfriend so long with her ,she never tells you about it right?"(Eliza) Hikari shake her head.as expected. "Hikari,from the start she doesn''t believe us,i won''t help her until i she believe us.no until she told us everything.if she decided not to told us then i will get win the exhibition match for getting the double blade.."(Ezax) Hikari who wearing this give me smile..and she giggled . "What?"(Ezax) "Nothing,i just found the shy side of yours.hehehe.i will keep watching for spy."(Hikari) let''s ignore her,after that i read the alchemy book for some time until eliza stand in front of me. "Have you found the answer ?Eliza?"(Ezax) "Master,no matter what happen...will you believe in me?"(Eliza) "As leader,as your master and as your friend there is only one answer."(Ezax) I smiled and close my book. "Of course i will."(Ezax) The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there. "Master,sorry for not believing you all this time,please let me win the soluna for you master."(Eliza) "Then we should start our training."(Ezax) She nod then we start our training. Narrator POV Hikari was humming bring food with her.she was told to buy some lunch for them when she see ezax,she waved her hands. "Ezax,it is time for lunch,i already make some for u-What is happening here?"(Hikari) Ezax was standing with his wooden spear and his wooden sword broken..Eliza was but she was unconscious . there is a piece of wooden double saber beside her which is broken.Ezax still calm as ever. "Ezax,what is happening here?"(Hikari) "Don''t worry,i just found she is amazing,very amazing girl once the competition start she will steam rolled them all."(Ezax) "Ezax,the wooden weapon you created are broken!!!what''s more you have bruise your left hands.."(Hikari) Hikari was worried,just what is happening here? "Don''t worry it just light bruise that i made myself.you should take care Eliza she is passed out because i hit her."(Ezax) Ezax lean on tree.seeing his eyes told him not worry Hikari choose not to think about it and heal his bruise after healing it ezax says thanks then he vanish from her sight.Hikari knows that bruise...isn''t because the sparring..it is because himself...there is no way eliza could do that.beside when he see ezax she knows Ezax regretting something.She only thinks that she needs to know about him.she must support him. Ezax POV "Master,why you hit yourself?"(Brionac) "nah,i am just found myself pathetic."(Ezax) I am so pathetic,in the end i can''t do a single thing!!!even though i promise her no to get afraid,but i was afraid of her...I AM PATHETIC!!I hit the tree beside me... "Master,it is all right ,we are living it is normal for making mistakes."(Typhoon) "Master,cheer up already!!Onee-san doesn''t want to see master like this."(Leviathan) "Master..."(Kulshedra) "Thanks guys,but this is the truth just she got courage to tell me,but i don''t have courage to accept her.I am really the worst!!"(Ezax) everyone grow silent...i....hate myself.. "Crybaby...just when you are gonna grow crybaby?"(Bahamut) "Bahamut!!"(Ezax) "How long you will be pathetic,grow yourself!!You are man that i choose to become my master!!GROW SOME BACKBONE!!"(Bahamut) "Bahamut.."(Ezax) "IF you gonna cry for over little things like how you gonna save your little?How you gonna save your parents!!I don''t need you to forgive yourself !!!!Don''t forget your family you fools!!"(Bahamut) Right,bahamut is right,maybe i was disgusting...but i have no time to sit and cry over it ,i must stand tall ...no matter what mistake i do.I am sorry Eliza,for afraid of you that moment.but i promise you ,hikari i won''t let anyone hurt you!!I will protect you girls because you are my friend that i could believe!!!! "Thanks bahamut.."(Ezax) "Then go already,you waste my breath.."(Bahamut) still act arrogant as ever huh......bahamut.. "I will make you my dragon just wait bahamut!!"(Ezax) Chapter 19:Reason. "Eliza,let''s take a break for a moment,after that we will train for your specialty.(Ezax) Eliza was lay on ground tired and can''t move ,If she doesn''t use it then it will be hard for her to win.Still i need she to get used to it because her power is like time bomb. "Master,i am sorry that my stamina ,still doesn''t ladt long.."(Eliza) "It is fine,for now please take a rest."(Ezax) Let''s.give her an hour,it has been one day since yesterday,now she was sleeping peacefully. "Ezax,Why you hit yourself yesterday?"(Hikari) She noticed huh.What a troublesome girl. "Because i break a promise with her."(Ezax) "I see,then you don''t tell me the rest i already know what kind of you promise you made and why you break it."(Hikari) Really she is too much,she could knowing the situation just based on the place and my sentence. "Ezax,But i am happy that you regret it."(Hikari) "I am pretty disgusting isn''t it. (Ezax) Why she say that?But she shake her head. "I mean you still make a mistake,it is okay for human to make a mistake but the most important is they regretting their mistake."(Hikari) I didn''t answer her.. "Anyway,there is no need to blame yourself just don''t do the same mistake again."(Hikari) What she say ,i understood it very much.but..i don''t understand how can she say it. "Then how about yourself?You keep make the same mistake by try make me fall in love you.but you never regret it."(Ezax) "That is failure!!Different from Mistake."(Hikari) I am pretty that is mistake no failure. "Then how you stop it already?Such a thing is impossible."(Ezax) "As wise person says Failure are mother of success.i won''t stop until i success."(Hikari) So it means ,i can''t get rid you forever.she is worst than any curses...my head hurts...wait... I just notice. "How long are you gonna wrap my arms?"(Ezax) "Eh??Your heart doesn''t beat fast or anything?"(Hikari) "Because you are flat and i don''t have flat fetish.."(Ezax) Her face immediately lost optimist ,she go into the corner and she act like a lifeless girl. [th_015_orz-v2.gif] Hmm i got very lethal weapon..this is maybe more effective than hit her with paper fan.Well knowing she is kind ,Gentle and caring for me maybe it is not impossible.If her approach still the same then it is impossible. Now i sit under trees and read alchemy book.suddenly she come to me. "Ezax,please teach me alchemy !!i need to grow more chest with potion!!"(Hikari) "There is no such a potion.even if it exist,such a thing won''t affect you."(Ezax) She do it again...[th_015_orz-v2.gif] I should just give a suggestion as friend of her. "Hikari,maybe your chest are lacking but you shouldn''t force it.instead cry over it you should show your positive point.you are beautiful as now,maybe the most beautiful person i have ever meet your kindness and caring is what you make shine ,that''s why there is no nee-"(Ezax) "Really?To you i am the most beautiful girl?"(Hikari) Did you use teleport?How fast are you?i didn''t notice you are in front of me. "I have seen many beautiful girl,but it just outside compared to you hikari who are beautiful inside and outside they are just pebble.trust me."(Ezax) I often meet girl who beautiful on outside,all of them are a bi*ch,they are girl the most i hate.If i will choose i will choose someone who have inner beauty than outside.of course i also have been seduced but i don''t feel anything to them.hearing this she blushed...I pretty expect you puffed your chest then you will say "of course,who do you think i am?".i didn''t expect this reaction nor i have any prediction about this. "Ezax,you won''t take it back?"(Hikari) "Why should i take it back?"(Ezax) Why i must take back my praise?i don''t understand her...then she smiled and grin endlessly "Ezax think me the most beautiful girl,ehehe.."(Hikari) Then she walk out while humming.I am really confused...i will ask Eliza once she woke up. 1 hours later. "Master,pardon me for bad my words..but in royalty of Hikari and me,By saying a girl the most beautiful it mean you propose her..."(Eliza) ........................What the? "You kidding me right?"(Ezax) she shake her head.what i have done?Well that isn''t important now there is no way hikari knows about it.if not she will trick me to say so or she is an idiot. "Forget it,let''s train use your dual blades again.if Hikari insist about it then i will take back my words."(Ezax) i will break this one,even if went again my principle. "Master ,it maybe rude of me,but why master reject hikari-san ,I mean hikari-san are nice girl,she the one who put everything for the one she loves.even if master really hate her you will already cancelled our party or even act like a jerk toward her.but you act so kind to her and me ,it is normal for her to think you are in love with her."(Eliza) Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions. "Eliza,you already know about me being half-dragoon right?let me ask you will she be happy if she with me?she will despised,at worst she will be killed.there is many of guy that are better to begin with,that is human. if i act jerk toward her because of that ,it is the same as insult her feeling .as her friend i can do that,the only thing i can do is let time do its work.''(Ezax) Hearing this Eliza smiled. "Master,do you mind telling everything to me?Master way of thinking,it because master past right?"(Eliza) "No,i can''t tell you about it.If you heard you will surely followed me."(Ezax) She is too knightly after all,surely she will follow me,but i can''t let her. "Why,did master still not trust me?"(Eliza) "Because you will die.."(Ezax) Hearing this she falter a bit then she ask me. "Why?maybe i am weak to you,i am still weak."(Eliza) ,for now hikari maybe still helping me,but if she knew how powerful dragoon race she will change her mind.i only accept her good intent.surely they will take a logical path,because they are smart.now for eliza i only need to give her challenge and she could won the tournament. "In exhibition match,if you win from me i will tell you why .Though that is impossible because you right now cannot even won the tournament next week."(Ezax) "I will train ever harder,I won''t give up until the result are out!!."(Eliza) i scratch my head,maybe i make her too fired up..that is good attitude though. Narrator POV Hikari was cooking for Ezax and Eliza,she often help Ezax cook and with her train at castle she could cook on her own. "Humming,it sure make you happy aren''t you Hikari-san?to be said beautiful by the man you love."(??????) "Titania,why you not appear in front of him?Isn''t he kind guy?"(Hikari) TItania,are fairy that follows hikari ,she hide in hikari pocket,but Ezax never notice it because Titania skillfully hide herself ,her presence.if titania bit reckless then She will found by him,because he someone who will notice tiniest thing about his friend.She first met was when hikari was child but then they got separated.Later she see hikari in forest with Ezax and hide in her clothes. even hikari who knows her the most just noticed titania when she was on last village. "Hikari,I agree with him being kind he always think about your safety first.but there is no need for you to follow him.his dream are crazy one.."(Titania) hearing this she only smiled. "Titania,do you think my dream are normal?"(Hikari) "Nope.even i at first thinking you were joking."(Titania) "Right,people think my dream are impossible,laugh at it.but do you know what he says to me when i tell him about it?"(Hikari) Titania was wondered?did he mock her or? "He said."Your dream will never fulfilled if you only keep dreaming,that''s why wake up and walk to path of future." instead of laughing or saying impossible, he encourage me.only him says that ,he not says because he pity me or anything he says it because he knows that i can do it."(Hikari) "Maybe that was coincidence?I mean he often treat you badly."(Titania) "It is because he was worried about me,even though i promise that i will help him,he only accept it as good intent from me that''s why he wants me to stop chasing him so i could left him and life happily."(Hikari) Titania fly around thinking,She could read person mind and she already read Ezax mind,what hikari says are right...but as her friend she doesn''t want her to get hurt..that''s why she wants to stop her.instead of it she also amazed with ezax who cares other this much.if he scum surely he will use her. "Titania,the more i knows about him the more i love him.Ezax are guy that you could depended on,beside you should notice right?He well liked by fairy."(Hikari) Fairy like human that give warm.Compared to hikari,Ezax maybe above him but because his dragoon no one dare to go near him this including ghost. "You were right,ezax are very warm if only he doesn''t has dragon..many fairy will followed him.Even i want to feel his warmness."(Titania) "Then you should show yourself."(Hikari) "No!!!His dragon are scary!!"(Titania) Fairy are scared of the dragon because they magic cannot do anything to them. "Just gather your courage until then,surely he is not that dangerous."(Hikari) BOOM!!!Then they heard some voice of ezax and eliza. "Master aren''t you bit too cruel?That is just fairy you don''t need to scare it so much.."(Eliza) "It is so noisy,if it keep bothering you cannot train.beside it only cute which i don''t care at all.but it is pretty lucky once i was near put to sleep by fairy and give them a bit lesson.it isn''t like i kill them."(Ezax) "NOOO!!!HE IS TOO SCARY!!!"(Titania) "Just calm down."(Hikari) she tried to soothe her,but it is useless though...she is really afraid of him. Chapter 20:Result of training. Competition day. It has been 1 week,Eliza specialty was barely passable but it is more than enough to defeat everyone.All i can do is warn her. "Don''t drink or eat anything given,if you was poisoned then it will be a waste of your training."(Ezax) "I understood master."(Eliza) I give thumbs up,now she is already B middle ranks thanks to her control over her ability and i already not afraid of it anymore. "Do your best Eliza."(Ezax) "I know you can win Eliza."(Hikari) She nod,after that we left her and go audience seat we seat beside killy.after killy speech the competetion start.The first match is between Eliza and B rank man.the weapon are wooden because Killy doesn''t want it turn to bloody battle.but the wooden sword are Enchanced with paralyze so when you hit by it the part that you hit will be paralyzed well even someone lost its arm i can heal it. "Hey will be She fine?I don''t want she get hurt."(Killy) "Then why you leave it to me?.anyway just trust me there is no fair opponent that can fight her on same ground."(Ezax) Then the battle begin.The guy run to Eliza lift his sword he try to slice vertically but Eliza swipe his leg then she hit three times.First at her head,neck and his right hand which hold the sword.He passed out. Seeing that the audience booing Eliza,but Eliza don''t care,because there is mistake in people though using leg to sweep opponent is fine.In real battle you need to use everything and what i taught was of course how to kill not for competetion and show off. "Kukuku,Letting you teach her was the right option.if she naive then it will be hard for living."(Killy) "Of course,he is the man that i will marry after all."(Hikari) I want to ignore her,but Killy grin and said "You are man after all,it is normal to do it."(Killy) I take out paper fan and hit both of their head.after rubbing their head the match continued until Killy strongest Son when he appear many of them cheered and that guy smile with satisfaction..no ..it is more than that.Surely he is guy thay always got he wants. "That guy,i don''t like him."(Hikari) She said in low voice.I nod to Hikari as sign of agreement and killy?Once eliza match over he is already sleeping. The match started the C rank guy Vs him.The C rank guy obviously never fight before..the way he handle his sword,his skinny hand.this match.. Thinking that the guy started dancing with his blade,and defeat his enemy mercilessly.Everyone who see this cheer him,That guy he then bow after that our eyes met,he just smiling then he vanish from the arena,today the match has ended..that guy i don''t like him even one bit. "Ezax,don''t fight him,he shrewd than you think."(Killy) "Don''t worry ,i consider it is pain."(Ezax) As i waved my hand goodbye ,Eliza was already surrounded by thug..well i need to started my own job. "Eliza,don''t fight them it will only waste your energy."(Ezax) I went to her then pull her from the crowd.some thugs touching me and shout at me,immediately i push his head to the ground then stomp on it... "I am a noble!!!!!!!IF you kill me then my dad will-"(Noble) So they are noble,well for me noble are just common thug..it is rare to see noble well behaved in this knight kingdom.they need to learn their places. "Then i will kill you,to me you noble just arrogant people who act like his fit because some powers.learn your places piece of shit."(Ezax) I Stomp at him once again,then lift him and punch him until he passed out.What a good way to relieve stress. "Everyone you should know what i mean right?Touching even hair of my party member then i will hang your head on street."(Ezax) I hate nobles because they use money from people to hurt people,well who cares.after that we eat dinner at restaurant,of course while waiting for order i reading my book,hikari didn''t say anything nor Eliza.After a moment Eliza ask me. "Master,before... to beat him like that aren''t you to much?"(Eliza) "It is for fear,by beat him up i can make some nobles learn their places so they don''t bother you."(Ezax) "Fuh,i think you are angry that''s why i afraid to ask you."(Hikari) I see,is my face that tense?i just can''t shove aside about the eldest son. "Do you think about that guy?"(Hikari) I nod then i said. "Yeah,The one who sent the thug was that guy too i already watching him since the his match over using my dragon."(Ezax) I use kulshedra help to watch for him,but he moves faster than i though.looks like he realized that Eliza was the one who could beat him,well if she use her specialty than it will be crushing defeat for him.for now i must defend her at cost.this including hikari ,because she will be easy target. "Hikari,don''t get too far from me,stay behind me if you kidnapped Then it will be bad,Eliza i will leave kulshedra to you use it to contact me if you are surrounded or in danger."(Ezax) "Got it!!"(Hikari) "Yes,master."(Eliza) after we say that our food was served. "Time to eat then!!"(Ezax) of course ,because i have 8 stomach to fill ,i also get hungry for 8 people,then immediately someone slam the table...ah..my food... "You the one who play unfair at the tournament!!!Because of that young master lost!!!You should feel guilty yourself for using cheap trick to won!!"(Knight) Eliza stand up,and her face is serious.i already teach her not to feel guilty if you didn''t do anything wrong.You are knight ,knight must believe his own believe.as thinking that i order another serving,well using his money of course.I stole his wallet at the same time the food fall to the ground.so that''s why today will be my treat. "There is no rule,that we not allow to use our leg,the rule only stated that we didn''t poisoned our opponent,didn''t kill our opponent and the one who standing the last won.if it is against the rule then of course i should i feel guilty.but the truth it wasn''t. then there is no need for me to feel guilty because i didn''t do anything wrong."(Eliza) "You bastard!!!!Who do you think you are fallen noble!!!Your mom are bitch!!!!To noble like us you just bitch!!right everyone?"(Knight) "YEAH!!"(knight) This is bad. "It is fine if you mock me,but i won''t let you mock my mom!!!"(Eliza) at this rate she will use that ability,for now i am sorry you can''t use it.i stop her by grab her shoulder. "Eliza,that is enough."(Ezax) "But Master!!!He mock my mother!!"(Eliza) I know,if i am in your same position i will be mad,but there is no need for you to get angry, "You girly boy,who do you think you are?Act like master..why don''t you suck on your mommies tits?Wahahaha!!"(Knight) Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent.

"Sorry,Eliza,Hikari Looks like we need to change our restaurant."(Ezax) "Don''t mind us,if you could then i don''t mind you kill him then eat with us."(Hikari) She smiled to me,Don''t worry these scum won''t be killed ,i will just promote them from knight to thug.Seeing hikari ,the guy become disgusting "You girly,why don''t you play with mister,this guy won''t able to satisfy you."(Knight) Well,well you seeking death yourself,then i will make you same plant you bastard..i dislocate both of his shoulder and break his joint,then His leg finally i kick him to the ceiling break all of his ribs.don''t worry he won''t die..but you can say his day as knight over.no his life as human already over now he is the same as plant.of course i heal him a bit so he is on verge of death. Seeing this his minion draw his sword and surrounded me. "I as the vice Captain,will hereby you break the law and will be put as prisoner for going against Knight Captain."(Vice captain) "I order all of you to get out sight from my now on,quit your knighthood and strip your title as noble.if you don''t wish to feel hell."(Ezax) I don''t wish to smell blood any further,so please disappear by your own. "Who do you think are commoner!!!To order us like that!!Learn you places!!!You Son of bitch!!!"(Vice captain) His hand gesture to make my friend as hostage..but before they could touch them i already severed their arms. "Want to make hostage of them?Do you know your sin of touching my friend?"(Ezax) I pour my real killing intent to them.they step back but they still act like nobles...disgusting.as i preparing taking my swords a girl with green short come,wearing decent knight armor come in.ah that girl,,,long time no see.. "What''s is with the commotion!!!"(Knight?") This girl one of the lord knight in this kingdom ,before she only squad captain though.She is is 6 years older than me,her talent isn''t bad but her body is rather fragile so i only teach her counter attack tech "Long time no see.Shiro-san."(Ezax) "Ezax,since when you come here?wait ,why these brute surround you ezax?"(Shiro) Shiro eyes become cold,she regard me as her teacher...well i only teach her how to protect herself though. "You there,cease your weapon at once or do you want to get killed?(Shiro) Immediately they kneel ,sigh...these knight are really scum. "Ezax,you someone who teach me when you 10 years old!!! why you must listen to this scum?"(Shiro) "Foolish girl,do you know if i start they will live as plant?"(Ezax) She already know,but still saying that.i can''t get used at all. "Anyway,Ezax who are the girls glare at me?"(Shiro) THey are glaring at me not you...well i can''t say that. "Hikari, and Eliza she is my friend there is no need to worry ,and also shiro i got request."(Ezax) "What,i owe you my life after all you can say anything."(Shiro) Still like that huh.well fine. "Strip their knighthood and their nobility as a knight they are failure."(Ezax) "Why?I want to know the reason first."(Shiro) "Because they mock my important companion."(Ezax) Hearing this she smiled then she said. "I see,then i will comply ."(Shiro) "My lord why you do as his order no matter how much money he got!!He killed our captain!!"(Vice leader) Shiro eyes turn cold as ice,ow...girl are really scary.. "Learn you places ,scum don''t you know ? he is-"(Shiro) "Stop it,shiro that guy don''t need to know about "That"...."(Ezax) "I am sorry,for my mistake.."(Shiro) Shiro kneel before me....well she is like Eliza but compared to Eliza her persistent is bit low.. "...YOU BASTARD !!!How dare you strip me you commoner."(Vice leader) I severed his head before he could slice me,weaklings don''t have right to get cocky...your talents was average you don''t put any works..you don''t have knight heart..conclusion you don''t deserve to live. trash..after that we go to another restaurant of course i already tell her where i go.. "Ezax,just what are you hiding?To think a lord knight kneel..."(Hikari) "you will know when the days come."(Ezax) hearing this hikari pout while i smiled a little. "Master,i am sorry for losing my composure."(Eliza) Eliza bow to me...really this girl.. "Eliza,i told you not bow me right?Or you did not heed my word as your master?"(Ezax) "I am sorry master."(Eliza) she then smiled and followed us..as long you are my companion i won''t let you get hurt...i already promise myself that much.

"Ezax,i am still have holiday for 1 week,until i work again why don''t you stay here?The tournament last 1 week you know."(Shiro) "Are you serious?That idiot killy..just how many child does he want to have?"(Ezax) I facepalmed,that guy he loves baby making too much,now he knows the reason why someone he loved dearly run away.I just wish he struck by lighting and dead.that guy only make problem for me.sigh~~~ "How about yourself?I bet in future you will have many wifes maybe more than him."(Shiro) "Give me a break,anyway you still use rapier aren''t you shiro?"(Ezax) "yes,why you asking?"(Shiro) after checking that no one listening ,he then said. "Shiro,would you mind teaching and protecting Hikari for a week?If we go to tournament then Hikari can''t train.I don''t want she feel left out because she feel weaker than me and Eliza."(Ezax) "You are kind person as always Ezax,i would gladly do it i owe you my life after all."(Shiro) "Thanks a lot."(Ezax) After that i go with Eliza to the tournament area,leave only Shiro and hikari..well She is harsher than me,i doubt Hikari could rest with ease. Narrator POV Shiro house''s garden. Shiro was warming up.. "Now,now Hikari let''s do some training!!!"(Shiro) "Before that,would you mind telling me about Ezax?To think he teach A lord knight at this young age...if someone heard this surely they will say impossible."(Hikari) "Hikari,I will tell you one thing,if you want me to tell you then you must train with me first and i will tell you bit by bit."(Shiro) Hikari nod then she draw her rapier,she can''t stand idly wait for Ezax to train her isn''t she?that''s why she must train so she could stand beside him. after 6 hours. "Take a break for short while hikari,you already out of breath."(Shiro) "Okay.."(Hikari) The training was indeed harsh,but she can grow stronger because of that,she thanking her then she immediately sit. "Hikari,i will told you how i met him and berfriend him,it is kinda embarrassing though.before i met him ,i only a girl that is very arrogant."(Shiro) Hikari immediately interested hearing her,She right now are someone that very well-behaved...Hikari wants to know how she turns out like this. If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. "It was 6 years ago when i met him for the first time.because i was very talented and achieve C rank at that age i become arrogant.one day separated from my squad i come to a village where he lived.because i was very arrogant , i told the village to give me the best food,the village didn''t mind.It just only Ezax was different he doesn''t care what i said even though hewas only 10 years old he was very mature compared to kid around his age.Feeling angry ,at him i asked him to beg for forgiveness but do you know what he did?"(Shiro) "No..."(Hikari) Shiro then giggled and say.. ''He threw tomatoes at my face,then he said"Happy?now go home!! don''t bother this village."."(Shiro) Hikari,doesn''t know what to say,just how much courage you need to say it when you was child?To think he already like that when he was child..does he not fear death? "Haha,look at you expression i know what you thinking.Continuing my story ,fuming in rage i tried to give him a beating ,but he was the one who beat me instead.what''s more he was only C rank at that time ,but could beat me easily.My pride was shattered and thinking just what i proud for?Even lost to a child.but he didn''t gave me glance and left me. "(Shiro) "That guy,woman or not ,as long they are his enemies he won''t hold back isn''t he?"(Hikari) "pretty much,but that is also one of Ezax good point .for a week i feel depressed not knowing need to do i stay at village do nothing.until i followed him to the forest,saw a 10 years old boy killing pack of thief by himself."(Shiro) Shiro expect Hikari to be scared or said anything like that,but Hikari didn''t shudder or anything, she just stared at shiro expecting continuation of story.Shiro then ask her. "Hikari,don''t you feel afraid?Seeing a 10 years old boy killing some thief by himself?It is rather bizarre you know?"(Shiro) "If i am saying that i am afraid of him because of that...then isn''t it the same that i denied his kindness?There is no need to feel afraid.i should give him praise and thanks if i knew that."(Hikari) Shiro,never expect a girl younger than her could think this way,if it was her...no every girl who see this they would surely feel afraid of him.but she wants to say thanks.. "Continuing the story,after saw him that i shivered and accidentally step on branch.Noticing the sound,he was prepared to kill me ,but before it landed on my necks he stop.losing interest,he burn the corpse then he return to village.i was thinking...what should i do?must i tell the villager?Decided to tell the villager ,i returned to village and wait for the next day.But before saying that,i stop...because i saw the villager chat happily with him and he Emitted warms atmosphere around him.I knew why he let me alive,why he killed the thief..everything was simple because he don''t want to get the villager worried.I noticed that he is the true hero,hero that works in shadows not seeking praise or thanks..Saw this,i asked him to teach me,and he gladly teach me including moral and way to life.It just last 3 months though...after i followed him i noticed he trained harder anyone,study more than anyone,what''s more he already works as adventurer since he was 9 years old made him the adventurer that every people wants to be party with. "(Shiro) "Then ,did you guys party?"(Hikari) "No,he never party with anyone until you girls party with him,you can say you are his first companion."(Shiro) Hikari expect Shiro was his first companion never expect he always alone.. "After 2 year separation ,i met him again on beastmen continent."(Shiro) "Wait on beastmen continent?aren''t they on war with us that time?did Ezax participate in war too?"(Hikari) Shiro seeing this she only smiled,looks what Ezax said about Hikari being sharp was true. "I will postpone the story for now,until the next training over i won''t say anything now your body tired i will teach you about theory."(Shiro) "Yes!!"(Hikari) "Lesson 1!!!If you want to get into Ezax''s bed then you should do it when he was really tired!!"(Shiro) Hikari was stupified,she only though what the hell? "Umm,i though you would teach me light magic or something..."(Hikari) "Do you think i am magician like you?there is no way i can teach you that.instead only taking short break i will teach you how to get close to Ezax."(Shiro) Just what is this woman saying?Hikari though that ..Shiro noticed....then get angry at her. "You fools!!!You think i say it without experience?with kind of approach do you think you can make Ezax fall in love with you?ridiculous!!!He will think you as family at best!!!If you don''t want that then listen to me!!!"(Shiro) "Yes."(Hikari) Hikari fazed for a moment,then she plan to study so she could made him fall in love with her but.. "Lesson two,don''t you dare to do any that she taught ."(Ezax) Ezax appeared from behind both of them. Shiro and hikari see this like seeing some ghost appeared by daylight cannot move,he then strike both of their head with paper fan. "Both of you!!!Seiza now !!!"(Ezax) "Wait,why you piggyback Eliza?"(Hikari) she just noticed eliza was sleeping at ezax back. "I would told you once she wake up,now seiza both of you and don''t you dare to run from me!!!"(Ezax) after that Ezax went inside the house then he return with some stone brick.looks like Eliza was delivered to her room. "Well you are peas on same pod,so my way of punish is also peas in same pod!!"(Ezax) "I am sorry!!!"(Shiro and Hikari) They well punished by doing Seiza with stone brick put on them for 2 hours,later they legs are cramped and cannot move for 3 straight hours... Chapter 22:Eliza is too pure. As i supervise Shiro and Hikari punishment,Eliza wake up and come to see me. "Master,what happen to me?The last time i remember was i at waiting room."(Eliza) "You was drugged,I told you not to drink anything weird,geez."(Ezax) She confused,not understand what i mean,well she is too easy to trick. "Remember the drink that given by your siblings?"(Ezax) Eliza,hear this grow grit her teeth..then she said. "There is no way master,she is the only sister that kind to me...please believe her master."(Eliza) "Lame,that is only act .beside it has been at least 8 years the last time you meet her right?it is normal for a person to change in that term of time."(Ezax) "But,maybe her family is keeping as hostage.there is-"(Eliza) "Quit it,you should know by yourself is she lying or not.don''t be naive!!!"(Ezax) She taken aback for a moment,then immediately hikari butt in to our talk. "Ezax,are you already investigate all of them?"(Hikari) "What do you think?"(Ezax) I turned around and smiled at her,this in middle of enemy territory there is no way i can be relaxed.well it thanks to kulshedra though ... "Forget i am asking,but now you should search Eliza instead...because she is already gone,"(Hikari) immediately turn around,i see nothing...only see wind blow some leaf...FUCKER!!! "HIKARI,stay with SHIRO!!!Shiro protect hikari,if i left hikari alone and she kidnapped then the situation will grow worse.for now just stay and protect yourself,understand?"(Ezax) "ROGER!!!"(Hikari,Shiro) Damn it,i shouldn''t turn around !!!Stop whining,i must run after eliza now!!!First i must go to killy house to check the situation. Eliza POV There is no way,no way Melly big sis would do that ,there must be some mistake,the only sister that protect me...when i was bullied she protect me there is no way!!!!!I run ,to where big sister stayed...she is already Married.so she stayed with her husband..there is no way my Sister would do that,there is no way. "Is,Master is wrong about you right?"(Eliza) Arrived in front of their houses,they give me a permission to come in,nee-san already waiting in front of door. "Finally,you have come.you BITCH.."(Big sis) "Sis ?"(Eliza) I noticed there is something wrong with my sister..She always see me with her warmness but now she see me like an insect... "YOU BITCH!!KNOW YOUR PLACE BITCH!!!I DRUG YOU,SO MY BIG BROTHER COULD WON THE MATCH BY HONOR AND RAISE HIS HONOR!!!BUT YOU!!!YOU !!NOT ONLY YOU WAS FINE WITH THE DRUG BUT YOU ALSO POISONED MY BROTHER!!!NOW HE WAS BEDRIDDEN !!!"(Big sis) "What do you mean sis?I was sleep until an hour ago !!."(Eliza) "Lies!!!! you come to arena and win by default!!!!!!!(Big Sis) What,there is no way ....i was just sleep until an hour ago..there is no way.. "If only you stay at other kingdom then i don''t need to drug you!!!!but you return instead!!!No choice,I drug you with sleeping pill so my brother could won!!but you poisoned my brother instead!IF my brother win then i can life easily !!!(Big sis) "Sis,there is no way you do that right!!Are your family become hostage there is no-"(Eliza) "Hostage?Are you an idiot?Can you see the reason i do this is for myself?If only you don''t come then my brother will win!!i can live easily!!!everything is your fault!!!"(Big sis) Then what Ezax,said are true.... "Sis you changed...in the past you are so kind me.."(Eliza) She always nice to me,protect me from bully even help me when i moved... "Are you an idiot?"(Big sis) "What?"(Eliza) See my reaction,Her face shown that she can''t believe me.what i am said was the truth.. "Since beginning the reason i be kind to you ,because it will make look god in front of father!!"(Big sis) Since beginning she lied to me....your kindness was a lie?i fall on my knees and my eyes moist wanted to cry... ''Sis,please say that lie..."(Eliza) "Since beginning i hate your good girl attitude!!Your knight attitude,your red hair!!I hate everything!!!you believe other people so easily i hate that!!i hate every part of you !!!!"(Big sis) Why i trust her,why i trust her only to knows that she betrayed me.why!!!I cry bitterly.. "Feel sad isn''t it?But it feel good for me!!!!I will take revenge on you done with my brother!!Knight!!"(Big sis) A group of people come surround me...they want to kill me.but i can''t move..no i don''t want to move...my body still not accept that i am betrayed by my sister even though my mind knows...Ezax...please save me.. "Kill her!!"(Big sis) The knight lift their sword prepared to severe my head.i must dodge...hikari-san are wating for me..move my body!!Move!!!Just as i though that suddenly the knight stopped moving..what? "Eliza,you stupid your body still have some drug linger,if you run of course your body will be paralyzed because the drug linger in your blood were mixed..The poison are mix some of sleep drug and paralyze leaf ,to make sure you cannot move even if you didn''t fall sleep they add more paralyze leaf than normal.paralyze leaf are hard to cure by immunity ,it will take around day to fully cure it.but instead you run here".(Ezax) That voice ..Ezax? "please be careful next time.Because if i late just 1 minutes your head already dead by now."(Ezax) I try to see his face but then i notice some soldier who just appeared try to attack him.. "Master behi-!"(Eliza) But he stopped,his body keep staying like that unmoved. "Your name are melly right?You wondered why the drug didn''t affect her right?you are wrong,the drug indeed affect her."(Ezax) "What did you mean?!"(Big sis) Ezax moved his right hands then immediately the knight started to point their sword on big sis.big sister face went paled..she step back while saying there is no way.. "Looks like you already know,well for Eliza i will tell her though..it is because this thread.."(Ezax) then i noticed there is a black thread wrap their arms body so they cannot move.I am 100% percent sure that thread wasn''t there before...did Ezax make it visible? "well this is thread actually very hard to control my limit is 20 thread at once,but it is enough for controlling 20 person with simple movement or 1 people with delicate movement.do you know why i am telling you this?"(Ezax) Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. immediately Ezax moved his hand and one of the knight throw their sword and it landed in front of my sister. "Because you are going to die."(Ezax) Immediately Ezax moved his hands once again,then the knight immediately run to her,she tried to run to inside house but the door was locked.she tried to open the door with keys but they keys cannot go in. "What''s wrong?why don''t run you inside?You like to hunt rabbit don''t you?The same as me..i also like hunting "R-A-B-B-I-T,don''t worry i am kind of person that is very patience..so take your time..."(Ezax) "My husband won''t forgive yoU!!!he will kill you!!my husband are high class noble"(Big sister) "Don''t worry,i already know that...that''s why i will kill him once you die.well goodbye..."(Ezax) "I will give 1000 thousand gold,i will be your concubine!!!Please forgive me!!!"(Big sister) master hearing that only grin then he said.. "Your sin are heavy one,for hurting someone important to me it is the same as seeking your death.You know, i am the one who poisoned your brotherbut the poison aren''t lethal he will be cured once the competition over.Because you try to kill Eliza and betray her,you should know what is your punishment."(Ezax) Seeing talk to master useless.big sis asking for my help instead,she tried to beg forgiveness with tear. "Eliza,i am sorry!!!I will never hate you again,i will always be kind with you!!!So please forgive me!!!"(Eliza) I was hesitant to kill her..after all even though it is an act she saved me from bullying. "Master,I forgive her.There is no need for master to kill her."(Eliza) Hearing this my sister brighten up .Ezax seeing this he could only laugh then he said... "Mrs melly looks right you are making mistake .Your life are not at Eliza hands but it is in my hands.Even if she forgive you ,it doesn''t mean i will forgive you.Understand what i mean."(Ezax) Ezax turned around and ignored everything my big sis said then he piggy back me once again,after that he just walk away,once we are far enough...Ezax moved his hand then i heard my sister shout.there is no need to ask...even me know that my sister died...after a moment Ezax asked me. "Eliza,do you still thinking i am as your master?"(Ezax) I didn''t answer him...no ..i don''t have any answer..notice that Ezax said.. "I poisoned someone because they drugged you,i moved you with my thread so you could win by default,i also kill someone without mercy because i think they will be threat to the future.I am not a person that uphold justice,honor or whatever.i will do anything as long it means can protect my companion or my family.i am far from what you idolized.In certain view you can say that i am a jerk."(Ezax) What he said was right,Ezax always like that..he not someone you could call a knight...he is far from someone that i idolized. "That''s why there is no need for you to think i am your master.because i am not worth to be called your master."(Ezax) Ezax smiled bitterly toward me...what ezax said was right,he is not a knight,but to me Ezax are my hero..someone that make me feel warm..someone that i could trust myself with..that''s why i.. "Master,no Ezax,Can i change my wish?"(Eliza) "Sure.i don''t mind."(Ezax) "Master,after the tournament over ,i want to tell you something."(Eliza) Tell the word that i will say once in lifetime,i believe in him....He is someone that i can''t be parted with...someone that always protect what his beloved...to me Ezax are not knight...He is Royal Blade...The highest knight title.There is only 1 royal blade in each generation...maybe to king or people master are a jerk..but to me master are the highest knight...Royal blade.The reason i accept Hikari way naming of our party name ,because i also idolized the Royal Blade myself..The royal blade this generation are someone that ends the war between human and beastmen....someone that repair the relationship between two races...I believe Ezax able to that....even he isn''t able.. as long i could sleep on his back like this..i won''t mind.. As thinking that i fall asleep...This remind me how warm to have family.. Ezax POV As i piggyback Eliza who is sleeping..i walk slowly and hold her gently so he won''t wake up,really this girl...looks like after the heirloom ended looks like she would choose to stay here...i hope she would be fine..I choose walk to alley with no people around,i don''t want everyone to think we are in relationship.Because She will live here.as i walk through the alley someone Clap their hands..he is front of me.. ''Killy...are you plan to take revenge on me because i killed your daughter?"(Ezax) He shake his head while mumbling something. "No,i want to thanks you instead...i want to thank you for protecting Eliza."(Killy) "Then why you say it here..you can thanks me the next time we went meet each other."(Ezax) ''Sigh,you should know that i didn''t got any time for that.when the competition over, you already go to next city aren''t you?"(Killy) He already know that much huh.. "Well i understand you very well,even if Eliza win tournament many of them will protest...that''s why..you plan to reveal yourself don''t you?Once you do it you will disappear without trace and never come back.Always like that,if it is me i will use it for making harem."(Killy) "You pervert,because harem of yours,she are near dead...beside why you only let her go?Do you want her to die or something?"(Ezax) "I want her to know how rotten,people can be .beside in the end she saved by you isn''t she?"(Killy) Huh,looks like everything went as you planned...well who cares about it.Killy then said while laughing. ''The one who solely end the war by himself and built the relationship with beastmen..Because of your service, you was rewarded with title Royal Blade..become the youngest Royal Blade in history...at the age 14 years old.''(Killy) "Bastard,it is because you the one who keep me in bind that i forced to take such a title."(Ezax) Even though i keep refusing,but they still forced me.....which make sigh when i remembered about that... "Ezax,please take care my daughter for me,if you make her cry then i will kill you."(Killy) You should say it to the man she would be married with not me,well he is already gone before that...Still Royal Blade....just reveal myself that i can''t predict what kind of headache i will get...THis is suck...i will pay back what killy does to me 100 times though.Because of you i get this headache..... Chapter 23:Spill the bean.. Narrator POV. Shiro and Hikari was fighting each other using the wooden weapon,then Hikari rapier was repelled then shiro pointed her rapier on Shiro. "Fuh,today training is over.What Ezax say was right,you are indeed talented as magic knight."(Shiro) "Really?"(Hikari) Shiro nod,Hikari immediately happy a magic knight was a kind of rare knight you need to master magic and Melee combat,by combining both you create the strongest knight,but because it need harsh requirement to master magic and melee ,Only the talented one could become magic knight.Hikari know The royal blade this generation also magic knight,it says he has magic that went beyond human magic,even his mastery with weapons are inhuman.many person says the royal blade this generation will be the strongest in history because he was the youngest one.well considered the war with beastmen,defeating a 1000 beastmen ,defending fort in 2 month ,defeat the leader of rebel.all of them are achievement of single man,The royal blade.if The royal blade doesn''t exist surely the war still going for now.But The royal Blade ,no one ever knows his face ,the only one who know are the king of continent of beastmen and human.Many Girl want to marry him,many people want to be his student,but no one knows about him just like a living legend.Then they were "Hikari,Do you know about this generation Royal Blade?"(Shiro) "Yes,known as the strongest royal blade in history,with the greatest and fastest achievement in war,Also the youngest Royal Blade in history!!!Do you meet him Shiro nee-chan?The royal blade this generation?"(Hikari) "Yes,i meet him ,i also fight alongside him with some idiot guy friend of his.He isn''t only strong,but also great strategist."(Shiro) Hikari eyes once again turned into star and start barraging her a question. "Is the royal blade looks like a girl because long hair?"(Hikari) "Yeah,pretty much."(Shiro) "Is the guy magic said can penetrates the fort wall?"(Hikari) "True,but hika-"(Shiro) "Is The Guy really said Slay 1000 thousand man by himself."(Hikari) "No,it is more than that, hika-"(Shiro) "Is that guy really around 20 years old?"(Hikari) "No,Hikari please cal-"(Shiro) "30?"(Hikari) "No!!!!PLEASE CALM DOWN A SECOND FOR GOD SAKE!!!"(Shiro) "Ah ,sorry it just for me he is kinda an idol."(Hikari) Hikari,just noticed.She is went all out again.then she just noticed.. "IF he isn''t around 20 or 30...Then how old is he?"(Hikari) "I can''t answer that,if i tell you more than that ...then he wouldn''t let me slide easily."(Shiro) "Then i will ask Ezax,surely he knows him.I mean he met you surely he knows who is the royal blade."(Hikari) Shiro was confused,did ezax not tell them yet?Well surely he wouldn''t appear like yesterday right?She doesn''t want him to continue his lonely way of life.that''s why she need a girl like her. she secretly tell Hikari to give her Ear.then she whispered her. "Don''t tell anyone okay,actually The royal Blade this generation is-"(Shiro) "Is who?"(Ezax) Suddenly Ezax appeared behind her again unnoticed,This make Shiro frightened and jump back. "THE HELL!!!IS THIS YOUR NEW HABIT?"(Shiro) "You usually tight lipped,never expect you to actually slipped the bean this easily."(Ezax) Ezax scratch his head,wondering what will happen if he one second late.Considering the usual hikari are annoying,if she know who he is,what will happen?As she wondering Eliza run to them,like she is out of breath. "Master,you are too fast!!!"(Eliza) "Sorry,but if i late stopping this idiot lord knight,then it will be a disaster that even me cannot handle."(Ezax) Ezax was sure,if she knew then she will be stickier than glue the same as Eliza,if possible he must avoid it.well it will be known once at final.Just thinking that make his head hurts. "Anyway,don''t forget if you spill the bean ,there is harsh punishment waiting for you."(Ezax) "Sorry,i won''t say that the royal blade this generation are you!Don''t worry ,i promise."(Shiro) .....The situation become silent.only Ezax smiling at her with full of killing intent. Ezax POV "Today is your death anniversary ,IDIOT SHIRO!!!"(Ezax) She immediately do dogeza1!If i know this will happen then i won''t stay here!!! "Really sorry!!!!I slipped!!Please forgive me!!"(Shiro) "FREAKING NO WAY!!!!"(Ezax) Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. I draw my paper fan,but immediately stopped before she hit,because Hikari immediately go to my back and then she pull up the clothes and see my back. "What are you doing you pervert!!!"(Ezax) i hit her with paper fan so she would stop staring,but she still checking my back. "Fuh."(Hikari) "Fuh my ASS!!!YOU PERVERT !!!"(Ezax) Immediately she stop staring then go in front of me,Eliza who was shocked finally asked.. "Master you are Royal Blade?"(Eliza) "I want to answer no,but she already slipped,well yes pretty much.i got that title when i was 14 years old."(Ezax) Ignoring us,hikari grab my clothes....and check my front.Can she read the atmosphere? "FUCKING PERVERT WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!!"(Ezax) "SHUT IT!!!I CHECKING IF YOU HAVE ANY SCAR OR NOT!!!JUST SHUT UP!!"(Hikari) Wtf?Why she is angry?after checking for a while,then she sigh of relieved. "Thanks gods you don''t have any scar.No,rather thanks gods you went past the war without any wound.."(Hikari) She sigh with a relieve,Ah...i see,she just worried about me?really this girl...i can''t read what she was thinking. "Ezax,why you are participate in the war?"(Eliza) Eliza since yesterday stop calling me master,well i don''t mind it ,more likely this is better. "Because someone that i indebted to tell me to do so."(Ezax) Right,that guild master.that''s why i participate in war,well for my achievement it is because i don''t want see blood longer and think a way to end the war faster. "Beside i need to get stronger faster than anyone,if not i can''t protect anyone."(Ezax) Hikari then immediately pissed of ask me. "What if you died?"(Hikari) "Then that is the end of my life."(Ezax) As i answer nonchalantly,not care of my own life,hikari slap me.Everyone also blatantly surprised. "What are you doing?"(Ezax) I was angry ,but my anger was gone when see she was crying. "Stupid!!!!!!What if you died?Even it was in the past,you still could be died...you are just 12 years old at that time,why you should fight on war!!"(Hikari) "There is no other choice..i can get stronger through normal way,that''s why i hone myself in war.That is my own choice."(Ezax) I answered her with cold tone,reacting at my words she try to slap me.but i hold her hands. "Why you want to slap me again?"(Ezax) "I don''t want you to die..."(Hikari) I was really confsued,such a thing was in the past why she bothers it...just what is going on her mind?i don''t understand her at all. "I don''t want someone i love to die,even he passed it.i l don''t want him participated in war.if i could i want to stop him from going to war...because there is chance he will die..please never participate in the war again.."(Hikari) She hug me and cry bitterly.i try to push her,but seeing her crying bitterly ,i stopped. So she really care me huh,still i didn''t expect her to love me this much.surely this is because war in the past...if i participate in war again..how she will react? after a moment hikari and Eliza and calmed down then they begin asking their question. "Ezax,Why you don''t tell us you are royal blade?"(Eliza) "It will hinder your progress if i tell you,beside now i am the ezax the adventurer not ezax the royal blade."(Ezax) Beside they give me title royal blade because my achievement and the previous royal blade died.they still force it to me even though i already said ,i don''t care about protecting other race. "But that explain your way of fighting,your strength as now.but Ezax why you never wear your Royal Blade clothes?Each royal blades have their own clothes sewed by Silver Blue Thread right?"(Hikari) I can''t say it is because i am to lazy to change my clothes.This clothes are my usual one that i sewed by myself.it just normal clothes...so i can''t say anything. "Ezax ,i will cook you some food..so pardon me for a whi-"(Shiro) I use my whip to bind her. "You think you could run?Surely i will punish you..slowly.."(Ezax) "eak,hikari ,Eliza help me."(Shiro) They immediately turned their head away,well i someone who is very harsh on punishment surely they don''t want to share it...Shall we begin?Punishment for spill the beans.......let''s see how you react after that... Chapter 24:Kidnapping. "Anyway,You must keep my identify secret ,no matter who they are ,understood?"(Ezax) They nod hastily,because seeing Shiro punishment they know if they mess up.Though it just drink my special drink which combine some medicine for example laxative.Of course this is 100% safe ,this is one of medicine that i use for people who make the worst mistakes.Now Shiro are in toilet,i will bet 5 hours before she go out from there. "Oh yeah,i forget because i wake up late today,but if you slipped to my bed again,i will give you 10 hit of paper fan."(Ezax) Hikari,this days getting more more dangerous,to think she wake up and go away from my room just before i wake up.why don''t you become assassin instead?Well even my dragon looks like doesn''t care if she doesn''t do dangerous to me. "Ezax,about today match how is it?"(Eliza) "Pretty good actually ,but you kinda slow when parrying i think you should focus on dodging more Eliza.."(Ezax) "Yes!!"(Eliza) Eliza immediately become happy.Well considered girl that i berfriend with she is the easiest to handle while hikari is the hardest.i can''t predict what she do because she was to random when it comes to daily life and love,the worst type for me apparently.I think i should lay some trap tonight. "Anyway,There is a day free before semi final,what do you want to do Eliza?I suggest you take a break from training.."(Ezax) "If ezax say so ,i will sleep."(Eliza) She is still mentally tired,well she was betrayed for the first time,i understand the pain of betrayal.Well for now i will read some book at my own room.Before i go Hikari suddenly grab my shoulder...now what she wants. "I want to buy some ingredients for today dinner,so please accompany me for a while."(Hikari) "......What?There still some ingredients left in kitchen."(Ezax) She immediately pout,and turned away.She wants to go with me enjoy the festival like sorta date,well i will think this as reward for training so hard.the festival are for the heirloom until the heirloom ends the festival won''t end. "Hikari,Let''s go enjoy the festival ,but this is not a date."(Ezax) I don''t want her to missunderstand ,beside i am not love with her. "Yeah!!"(Hikari) Then immediately she wrap my arms.What a pain. "Hey,you should stop doing like that.Everyone will missunderstand.."(Ezax) "I don''t care,i will keep doing this."(Hikari) She grin happily,fine i will be lenient at this one. after that we enjoy festival by eat some food ,watching some circus performance until she glued on accessory shop seeing some hairpin.i stop to and check the hairpin.it is butterfly hairpin.Looks like she like it..but she has no money left because we eat so much food. "Young miss ,how much is this?"(Ezax) I point on the hairpin that she like...The clerk was an Auntie . by calling her young miss,maybe i can haggle the price. "Even you give me praise,i can''t give you discount.,That hairpin are 1 silver."(Auntie) Hahhaha,looks like i am failed.well 1 silver are cheap for this kind of accessory ,beside hikari wants it. "How about it?Want me to buy it for you?"(Ezax) Hikari immediately nod. "I will buy this one."(Ezax) immediately i handed her 1 silver.then The auntie give me the accessory and given it to me.after that i give to Hikari,but Hikari blushing just stand idly..what? "Ezax ,please put it on me."(Hikari) "Sigh,fine."(Ezax) i put it on her ,then she immediately smiled happily.The auntie who see this giggled then say. "What a couple,young miss you shouldn''t let this guy escape from your grasp okay!!"(Auntie) "We aren''t-"(Ezax) "Don''t worry ,i won''t."(Hikari) Before i could finish my word,hikari already cut my words..well it just 1 people after all.After thanking her,we continue walking around,but Hikari was not focused because all of she doing was smile.Really this girl....just as i smiled,hikari vanished....oh..she was kidnapped.Who is the suicide candidate? Narrator POV, Hikari whose mouth was gauged was kidnapped by some random guy. "HMMM!!!"(Hikari) "SHUT UP FOR A WHILE !!!I will get a huge money for kidnapping you."(Kidnapper) Just a minute Ezax take a relax,this happen. even hikari try to wiggle,the grab was solid,then she was thrown into some barn..then the door was closed and the criminal was go.. Hikari remember,once she was kidnapped too when she was 11 years old,when she was out to some town with her uncle.but someone save her,it was a kid around 10 years old.from his polite way of talking she know she was certain a noble,a boy that save him from the kidnapper,that''s is the first time she fall in love in a guy.but he didn''t tell her his name nor shown his face.He wear a certain mask....if she didn''t meet ezax maybe she will search that guy..but Ezax was that someone she truly loved,even though he is harsh but he was kind and caring.Even say he don''t care her but he always come when she calls him.Then suddenly the door opened and a guy was come.. Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author. "So she was the one who friend with Eliza."(Noble) "Yes sir!!!if we use her as hostage.surely Eliza will surrender with you at next match."(Minion) They were Eliza next opponent in heirloom competition.Hikari surely cannot let that happen. "Boss,can we "try" her?"(Minion) "Yeah,but don''t break her .we will use her as hostage.to do a performance of my win."(Noble) As the guy try to rape hikari,hikari face went paled,then suddenly a guy with mask stand behind them.That mask the one who save her.He wear a sky blue cape and has silver align on it. " Such a thing is impossible because you won''t survive this night."(??????) A light went flash their neck...immediately all of the minion heads were severed by light sword..It was very fast even Hikari could barely see it.The leader try to attack him by doing a spin slash but the spin slash only hit air,then immediately 5 sword hovering around his neck.Hikari was surprised a light magic user the same as her. "I will give you everything!!Just please spare me!!!!"(Noble) "Hoo?Then tell me your relation ship with the kidnapper no Poison Lizard crew."(Masked guy) "I pay them with my money!!!!I pay them for kidnapping Eliza friends!!!For my own sake!!!"(Noble) The masked guy wear a mask,but everyone could hear he was sighing. "Looks like i must be alert until everything over,what a pain.Well thanks for answering and goodbye."(Masked guy) Immediately the sword stab his neck and he stopped moving. "hmm!!Hmm!!"(Hikari) Hikari try to ask who is him,but the masked guy only say. "Please be patience for a while,i will release you soon."(Masked guy) Looks like the masked guy was missunderstand what she want to say.it is normal though,so hikari doesn''t mind it.The masked guy tied the rest of guy then put them on barn.after that he take their wallet ,he set hikari free. "Now follow me quietly,we don''t want to let anyone knows where we going okay?"(Masked guy) "Nn!!"(Hikari) Hikari,was sure this guy doesn''t has bad intention beside he already save her once so she will follow him,once they go to some alley,finally Hikari sighed out of relief ,then she ask him. "Who are you?why you save me 5 years ago and now?"(Hikari) Because he wearing a mask ,he cannot show his expression,but surely he was grumbling. "Sigh. The world is so small.never expect the girl that i saved 5 years ago was you."(Masked guy) Immediately he unmasked himself,Hikari then face cramped...yes it was Ezax... "Really..Hikari,next time please be careful.What kind of person get kidnapped twice." Ezax was the person she loved,he was also Royal Blade the one who she is idolized what''s more he was her first love...he was unconsciously make Hikari fall in love with him more.But Ezax is block head in this matter so he will never realize it.Shaking her head to get rid of her blushing she then said. "Ezax,I swore i will never let you go.I will make you fall in love with me."(Hikari) Ezax,in his heart was regret not keep his guard up,now there is more reason for her to follow him...he should keep his guard up..well considered the information it isn''t that huge mistake.beside he knows hikari are someone who cling on hope,because she doesn''t cry ,just pale.. "Anyway Hikari,Until the tournament over- no until we are out of this city be careful.Poison lizard are name of certain of bandit group and the leader was S rank adventurer ,so run away once you feel danger.."(Ezax) "Ezax,is he someone you know?"(Hikari) Hikari noticed Ezax expression turn into hatred once he say poison lizard...there is great chance he said that because he has connection with them. "...pretty much,The leader was the previous Royal Blade candidate after all."(Ezax) Hikari was surprised,Why previous Royal Blade become turned bandit. "Don''t try to fight him no matter what,it will be hard to protect you once you become their hostage..beside i have responsibility to kill him after all.It is my fault to let such a criminal alive after all."(Ezax) Ezax,that is right...this is his responsibility as someone that failed killed him.the one who was thirst for power. Chapter 25:Past of Ezax(War with beastmen part 1) After the kidnapping incident,i don''t know why hikari eyes was more dangerous than ever.I shouldn''t let her kidnapped if this would happen.well it was no use it to regret anyway.as we walked to Shiro''s home. "Ezax considering you were royal blade,why you rarely wear that Cloak?"(Hikari) "What?"(Ezax) "I mean you were cooler that way,since it suits your atmosphere compared to your usual clothes,especially the cloak you wear..it was too small."(Hikari) Well,i can''t lie to her,better say the truth. "This was given by my dad once i was saved by him.This was necessary for me,for reminding me to save my own family."(Ezax) It maybe too small but it isn''t that tight..it just a bit short. "You were really soft to your family ,but why you treat me ,who was your future wife, like a stranger."(Hikari) Who do you think you are?This girl head just what was it made?Orichalcum(The strongest material in this world and very rare)?Why she was so persistent on me.. "There was no way that would happen,i didn''t have any feelings for you."(Ezax) "Tsundere...tehehehee."(Hikari) She immediately giggled then smiled.But still Tsundere... "Who was Tsundere?What i said was truth!!"(Ezax) "Then why you put this on me?Surely the past of you would never do that...looks like my dream will be achieved soon."(Hikari) "Dream it,such a thing will never be achieved."(Ezax) Sure i open bit to you,but it doesn''t mean that i will love in future. "Why you say it impossible?Since it is me surely i will achieve it."(Hikari) Damn She never give up,She was so persistent that it wants to make me give up.Just why girl near me always so persistent,including the little cat at other continent.certainly The other princess was more shameless. "Ezax,because you are tsundere i will give you a kiss!!"(Hikari) I take back my word,SHE WAS MORE SHAMELESS!!! "Learn your place you Stupid girl!!"(Ezax) I give a nice chop at her head,but she still try to do that,which makes us late to come home. Next day, As i opened my eyes,i check my bed..right empty,,,left empty...Finally they give up huh?let''s stretch first...after stretching i notice a hairpin under the bed.....this hairpin......Hikari''s, ................................................................ "HIKARI!!!!!"(EZAX) "Yes, you call me?"(Hikari) Noticed the hairpin,she immediately turned back,but before she could i already grab her head. "You would never learn don''t you?"Any last word?(Ezax) "You are very cute when you are sleep,i have no regret!!!!!"(Hikari) "DIE!!!"(Ezax) As usual the punishment were severe but i hold back a bit because she was training with shiro..next time, i will hang her on trees before i go sleep or tied her at her bed. 3 hours later. With exception Hikari ,that i hang on rooftop.i told them everything that happen yesterday,Shiro immediately give me thumbs up while eliza said as expected of you which make rather surprised.I was sure that she would call me master again.never expect her to call my name this easily. "So what do you want Eliza?Tomorrow you will automatically win because i made him bedridden at least for 1 year."(Ezax) Even he recovered near,i wouldn''t think him as enemy,i broke all of his bone so you can say his life as a knight was over.Nor i care it though. "I am still want to take a break at much i would do light spar with Shiro-san."(Eliza) "I see,well considering shiro-san here,i pretty much can rest at ease .Shiro-san be merciless to Hikari today!!"(Ezax) "Roger!!"(Shiro-san) Stand up from table ,then i said. "I have something to do,so please be careful."(Ezax) They nod,then i exit the house...while scratching my house..Looks like i need to clean trash.....if i let them then my friend''s life would be in danger..better kill all of them before they could do anything. Narrator POV "Ara i feel sorry for the bandit."(Shiro) "Why?"(Eliza) "They met a person that shouldn''t be pissed off,well it was their mistake to kidnapped Hikari,if not ,Ezax wouldn''t care about them."(Shiro) Shiro still remember,when she was betrayed and near be killed ,Ezax come while brandishing his spear.All of them died not care girl or guy,he would kill anyone that already wounded his own friends.Even the noble who was set it up,was executed by him.even though some people afraid of him ,they held it in because they know it was for them.Until now the squad which was created by him alone worth 100 soldier all of them at least now General.the highest was her and Some other pervert guy. "Shiro-san could you told me about Ezax at war,i want to know more about him."(Eliza) Ah,looks like another girl fall in love with him..surely anyone that married would be happy ,but they would also sad as well because he was natural born women''s magnet.well compared to other guy ,he was too capable ..what''s more his face rather cute compared to other man..his only minus was he cold toward girls but to some girls it was plus though.after sighed a little Shiro then said. "Sure,beside i have free time anyway for about 3 hours,until Hikari punishment over."(Shiro) This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it "Let me listen to it!!"(Hikari) ......She couldn''t say anything now she bit understand why ezax said it was more easy to end the beastman war than made her left you by her own.She was actually stickier than glue...Surely if she wasn''t told by ezax,She would never believe her as princess.But actually a girl like this maybe suit ezax who always try to brush aside romance. "Sure,sure but actually you are getting better hikari to wake up before he wake up,what kind of skill was that?"(Shiro) She doubt any normal people could do it,as expected of rock head princess. "Haha thanks."(Hikari) Hikari couldn''t say that she wake up because her fairy.she don''t know why once Ezax on verge wake up ,she would wake up.of course she would wake up hikari and told her to go out. The reason Titania help her,because she found Ezax was very warm compared to other people,but only when he sleep all of his danger sense was put off and she could go near him.once he was on verge waking up she will notice herself was in danger.So she would woke up. "Well back to topic,When we met him again it was 4 years ago.when he was 12 years old."(Shiro) 4 years ago. Beastment continent,Castle elsanford Training field "Sigh,i want to return human continent soon."(Shiro) Shiro was sighing ,it has been 2 years since she was separated with Ezax,Compared to other general Ezax was 100% better.now she was waiting general for announcement.The general name was Killy he was very strong but he was an idiot ,many of general was an idiot.If Ezax was here she would bet the war would end soon.His tactic was really great and was to the point.When she was participate with him at raid quest casualty always minimize but everyone hate him because he always hold back...well indeed he do that because he must have some power reserve on him ,because he doesn''t know when ambush could happen. "I will introduce you another general that would help us at this war.This person was adventurer but he applied for this war,even though he was only adventurer he already defend 5 castles with only civilians."(Killy) Everyone begin uproar,defending 5 castle with only civilians ?Such a thing was near impossible !!Civilian never hold arrow and they barely could hold sword.to defend the castle with only civilian ,must be a master tactician.She was excited to think she met another genius like Ezax. "Silent!!!Now Ezax please enter the field."(Killy) Shiro was shocked,what?Ezax?He barely 12 years old and he was already general?How stronger was he now to be appointed general this early.Ezax who she longed see now was in front of her,but he never change except his clothes was still the same. "My name Ezax,nice to meet you all."(Ezax) Everyone went uproar once again,Then someone Raise their hands "Lord knight Killy,But allow me to test him."(Male knight) Atmosphere become silent,then many of them shout to have a duel.Killy was angry but Ezax face still calm as ever then what he said was simple.. "Is it only him?If anyone try to challenge me then please go to area over there.I will battle only once so if you are unwilling to accept me as your general please go.(Ezax) He pointed a free area left of him,Hearing his provocations 20 knight stand up and stand at the area left of him.He only give a single glance then he ask us again. "...Anyone else?"(Ezax) Hearing this ,they were laughing.but Ezax doesn''t mind....seeing this Shiro was sure...that he was far stronger probably around B rank Upper? No one willing to stand up,Ezax then go to area where he was surrounded by knight .they change their weapon to wooden one so no one killed. "Killy please become the referee."(Ezax) "Okay."(Killy) Then once the match started,everyone begin to attack him at same time,but Ezax dodge while counter attacking,1 down,2 down,3 down slowly they defeated but no one landed on Ezax yet.even though they have huge handicap with them.they wear full armor while ezax only wear clothes...but Ezax skill was past above them..which make Shiro was thinking...how stronger will be he in future?As she thinking that ,ezax Already repelled another sword and stab the sword through the hole at its helmet at the middle of head. Once 20 of them already defeated.Ezax throw his sword away then go to the previous spot,Then suddenly a knight draw his sword ,he try to attack from behind.Killy who saw this immediately shout. "FOOLS!!!DON"T ATTACK HIM IF YOU DO THAT -"(Killy) Killy was too late,because The knight who pissed off already attack him,but Ezax only dodge it by move to side,then draw his katana and severed his head.after that he return to the previous position. "Now Anyone still reject me as general?"(Ezax) No one reject it,more likely no one dare to say it anymore.His strength was inhuman surely it will be courting their death if they do that.Then what Ezax said surprised more further. "Killy allow me too choose which person that i wants to bring...first you Shiro,Second the little guy who munch chocolate over there,third the guy with a perverted face at the bottom right and The last the magician over there."(Ezax) I was happy,but i was still don''t know that our fate would change when we worked with him. Chapter 26:Prelude to the war. "..So strong.but Shiro-san why you freezing??"(Hikari) Hikari tilted her head why she suddenly stop? ''....i forgot,he told me not to told anyone!!Sorry hikari,eliza i couldn''t toldyou anything else!!please forget all about that or asking orther!!"(Shiro) OH shit,she just remembered Ezax told him to keep secret,she still remember when she accidentally speak about his past..the girls punishment and the guy were the same..they would keep it secret..beside war story wouldn''t be too good for them.but that wasn''t the problem here...there was a tiny ice colored dragon was watching them from over rooftop noticing this ,shiro must keep her mouth shut....she forgot...when they were camping the dragon often watching so no one attacked them...and if someone try to attack them it wiould transform into huge dragon and attacked them.... ".........what was that creature?"(Eliza) Eliza pointed on the dragon who was watching them from rooftop. "....Brionac..if i wasn''t wrong it was ezax''s dragonit.Wow it was really cute when it was chibi like that."(Hikari) Brionac was rather cute...if there was a doll like that,she would bought one.Immediately brionac jump down then go to hikari.. "What want to hug me?"(Hikari) Hikari squat down and try to pet its head...but before it could....the brionac Smack!!!he dida 180 Degree somerassault... "........like Ezax like its dragon...their personality surely was the same."(Shiro) "Then you should warned me before he did this.."(Hikari) As hikari lay on ground some ice appeared from his back then it lift her and hang her on nearby trees...Beside protecting the house,he was also ordered to keep Hikari punishment in check... "Again...why Ezax,and dragon was Tsundere..."(Hikari) As she said that she saw an explosion happen nearby...5 minutes after that she saw a flood..15 minutes later at nearby areas..there was a tornado raging throught and destroy the building...5 minutes later,she saw a person fight among themselves...and many things.. "What did you see hikari?"(Shiro) The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement. Looks like she was underestimating Ezax too much.....oh well as long she was his wife surely nothing bad happen,if someone pissed of him they only signing their own death to them. "Tomorrow there would be some uproar a demon attacking for sure."(Hikari) "Ah...i agree."(Shiro) "What?What you are talking about?"(Eliza) Then a tornadohappen nearby Shiro''s mansion,more precise ,it was beside her mansion.. "As usual his control over magic put grand magician in shame."(Shiro) Because of he was like thiseveryone in his group respect him,even after the war over all of the studenttry to follow him which end with rejection...now she was wondered..if everyone was fine. Ezax POV Back alley. "Why there was so many cockroach,just who was the boss?."(Ezax) Hmm as i was thinking that.Tiamat begin to comment.. "Maybe some noble?"(Tiamat) Tiamat wasn''t wrong but.. "Tiamat,A noble normally wouldn''t have many base like this...i think it some group of criminal..."(Typhon) "I agree with typhon...they must plan something ."(Leviathan) "Wee???Master please escape this city!!"(Kulshedra) "I am fine kulshedra,beside it would be hard for us to resupply if this city destroyed."(Ezax) ..............but this was not your random criminal..they were to loyal to their boss....the boss must had some strength with him... "Anyway Ezax,just go home for now,there is no need for you to clean all of them,you should let others to clean it."(Fafnir) Fafnir was right,there was no need for me to clean all the trash..i would send a message to killy after this. "Oh yeah,i forgot."(Ezax) I forgot,i had something to do well he was lucky.. "Fafnir,today at my room..i would taught you a bit manner..don''t run okay~~?"(Ezax) for him to be lenient with Hikari and Eliza..Really...it was a mistry....as i thinking that,someone stand in front of me...He emitted killing intent,immediately i draw my sword and staff.. "Royal Blade Ezax."(??????) "Who were you?Why did you know about that?"(Ezax) He just laughed a little..then he..show his face.. "Now remember about me.."(??????) The previouscandidate of royal blade,but he was forsaken because he was kidnapping beast princess and started the war between two race.His name was Selas ...the prince of certain kingdom.The kingdom didn''t exist now because it wasdestroyed. the kingdom prepared to attack the beastman continent which was violating the treaties between 5 race so many kingdom joined their hands and eleminated them for a good.to think he was still survive.. "Selas,Do you plan to start another war!?."(Ezax) "Now,now there was no need for me you to answer you would know it soon.!"(Selas) Immediately he run from me. "Wait!!"(Ezax) But i was too late,because i already lost him in this crowd...looks like there was still much cockcroach that i need to clean...i must ask killy for help.. Narator POV 3 hours. "fugyaa!!"(Hikari) Hikari who was escaped from her punishment once again captured by brionac..then hanged again.. "So rock headed..i even wondered why you didn''t give up yet."(Shiro) "Because there was nothing good you get by giving up!!!Surely the day when Ezax treat me nicely would come!!"(Hikari) .........So persistent....that was brionac thought ,then he use his ace to make a words.. Impossible.. "Hmm,hmmm!!There would be one day you called me mistress."(Hikari) Brionac pissed off,there was no way he would call shameless girl like her mistress.he wants to smack her head with stone but his master would get angry.. "Couldn''t touch me?Don''t tell me you already accept me?"(Hikari) "...........Hikari-san....looks like He was pissed off.So goodluck..."(Eliza) Eliza give salute ,then brionac who was pissed off created a huge chunk of ice and prepared to throw at her... "No!!!Why you get angry ?it was the truth!!(Hikari) Brionac...now knows..that his master feelings..to deal with her...you must really had a great ,no a godly patience..she was so shameless toward him....Master i would punish her for you.. "Stop it brionac.Don''t waste your magic."(Ezax) immediately hikari sighed by relieved ,then Brionac go inside his master and charging his magic there. "Hikari,i would be lenient today.. your punishment would be cancelled..now you must rest."(Ezax) "What''s wrong Ezax?''(Eliza) "Somethings big gonna happen..so prepare yourself.."(Ezax) A small scale war would appeared.. and 3 days training won''t do nothing..the best would be do real practice and prepare as much as we could if i wanted them to survive this war. Chapter 27:Night before war. Late night. Sitting in front of table..while thinking what should I do. Tomorrow would be the day of final,Also the day of rebel initiated.Considered the one who lead them was the candidate of Royal Blade I couldn''t rest easy. Dammit,It was my fault to not kill him before. Someone then knock the door....Only 1 person that come in mind ,seriously I told her to rest.. "Enter."(Ezax) Hikari then entered the room and sit on my bed. Just what she want? "Ezax,Why were you still awake?"(Hikari) "I still need think the best strategy to minimize casualties. Considered the enemy was royal blade candidate ,I just couldn''t rest easy."(Ezax) "Ezax,what were you planning?You hide something from us right?"(Hikari) She was sharp as usual. Thought it waste because she was rather an idiot. " Knowing the boss had hatred for me,I could use it. By doing that I could pull out the most dangerous guy to myself. With that I could minimize our casualties and Both of you would be safe."(Ezax) "You had another reason right?"(Hikari) ...........She knows about it...must be because Shiro. Well soon or later I would told her anyways. "Ezax,I heard from Shiro.. Your dragon was strengthned by eating human. Was it true?"(Hikari) I nod,then I gave her more explanation. "That was part of it. My Dragon was special one,they grow stronger by eating human.but they must eat strong human...maybe eating monster could made they grow stronger but only by Eating humans they could grow stronger faster.,it was also the same to other race like beastment or elf.(Ezax)Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit. I know it Accidentally,when I ordered Bahamut to Devour human and the beastmen at war before...Bahamut says he grow stronger faster. Everyone then tried it with result they get stronger faster...but of course many of them had their own opinions...and they decided to leave the decision to me. But using their kindness for myself. I wants them to get stronger faster. I wants to get stronger...by using their kindness... "I was disgusting wasn''t i?The reason I go to war myself,because I need to get stronger...and the war give perfect chance to do so. That''s why I didn''t pull out from frontline.."(Ezax) Hearing that,Hikari made a sad face...but I continued. "Hikari,My dragon many of them againts it..but I forced them.Force them to eat humans....beastmen..elf..And I used war to justify it. "(Ezax) It mades me feel so pathetic. but there was no other way....A beggar can''t choose. "That''s why I thought your love wasted on me,instead of me. search other guys okay?Considering what I done,I was not worth of you slightest..morely likely I didn''t worth to anyone...."(Ezax) She immediately stand up from my bed..looks like she finally realized huh...that I was the worst guy. Closing my eyes because I already know what She would chose anyway. She would left me..considering I was a shit. ....after a moment I didn''t hear any door sound..then I opened my eyes and saw she was standing in front of me..and immediately hug me... "You weren''t disgusting or anything. Maybe other person found you disgusting, or anything. But because of that you were more kind than anyone else...more warm than anyone else...and was more childish than anyone else."(Hikari) ...I couldn''t say anything.. "Maybe in front of everyone else,You were a monster thirst power. But they miss the most important point about you."(Hikari) "........"(Ezax) "You hate blood more than anyone..knowing that you keep going to war to strengthen yourself,and also torturing yourself. just for your sister and mother who isn''t even related by blood."(Hikari) "Hikari, I.."(Ezax) "Ezax...you weren''t alone anymore. There was no need for you to do anything like that that. Me and Eliza would become your power.A power greater than what you get by eating other people.That''s why please believe in us okay?"(Hikari) Tear streaming from my eyes...not knowing why...was it because happiness or sadness...i don''t know...how long since the last time I Crying? 15 minutes later... "......Wasn''t we supposed to go bed and slear together or you fall sleep on me?"(Hikari) .........In the end she was a pervert..what a waste of inner and outer beauty..As I grab her collar, I opened the door and kick her out. Thanks god I didn''t fall asleep. If I fall asleep surely she would take that chance... but I don''t hate her...instead I liked her more a bit. Maybe spend my life with her wasn''t that bad. Narrator''s POV "just a bit more....what a waste.."(Hikari) Hikari who was rubbed her butt then noticed..there was another person beside her. It was Eliza.... "Eliza...so you heard everything?"(Hikari) Hikari now was worried at Eliza.She mustn''t listened to that... ".Hikari..what should I do? I know what Ezax,Doing was wrong...but I understand he didn''t had a choice."(Eliza) What Eliza means,was the knight creed.What Ezax doing was opposed to knight creeds..She was conflicted between her love and knight creed.Knowing this Hikari only let out smile. "Eliza...You weren''t knight anymore. Besidedepth in your heart you already know the answer right?what you should do?"(Hikari) Hikari then left her alone...Eliza knows when she did this . it was her own way to show that she believe in her. After thinking for a moment...she then bow to the direction she left. "...Hikari thanks."(Eliza) Immediately Eliza go to her room and sleep.It was to prepare for tomorrow final,she already found her answer. While everyone was sleep tomorrow,Ezax wasn''t.He was gazing at moon...not noticing the dragon emblem on his left backhand was finally show itself. No one knows...that tomorrow there would a be a great battle between the royal blade and the royal blade candidate. Chapter 28: Winner of the tournament. Colisseum For the sake of safety I ,Hikari and Killy were on VIP Area. We was waiting for the final match . I am bit anxious with that former candidate of Royal Blade. Just what was he planning? He did nothing these 2 days. He didn¡¯t call Reinforcement nor transport any weapons. There was also no sign any move from their group. Just what was their planning? ¡°What¡¯s wrong ? It was rare for you to be anxious.¡±(Hikari) ¡°It¡¯s okay ,I am just thinking some things. And also ,could you stop wrap my arm?¡±(Ezax) Yes,this what also bothers me. She become more more aggressive these days. If I knew this ,I shouldn¡¯t let her in yesterday. ¡°Flirting around in public,Have some shame would you?¡±(Killy) ¡°Shut up you jealous old man.¡±(Hikari) ¡°You,If you weren¡¯t with Ezax,I would execute you know!!Learn some respect to me.¡±(Killy) ¡°What,I know you were only cheater. To cheat on your main wife¡­..really.¡±(Hikari) ¡­.He was fuming with anger,but he hold it. Hikari really knows no fear. The one you who mock are retirement of templar knight..He still had a great power on this city you know? But I would bet she would n¡¯t listen to me even I say this aloud. ¡°This girl!!!!! If not for you were ezax¡¯s friend ,or ¡®his¡¯ daughter I would already kill you.¡±(Killy) Hikari just confused,but she just brushed it aside and only humming as she wrap my arm . This made my position uncomfortable. I should just sit on the seat. Brushed her aside. I sit on my seat. Killy do the same as me. While Hikari sit beside me. Even thought I try to push her away ,she still persistent about it. Well the match would be started soon. I would just be patience for a while. Then When Eliza appeared and He was appeared. Any weird moves or Eliza life in danger I would protect her using spell. Then the match started,the opponent start his first attack. but Eliza parried it then she use her leg to sweep his leg . but he quicly regained his balance and defend Eliza attack using her dual blades. Eliza started iniciating the attack barragely not let him do anything except defense. As expected he was a noble with just status not ability. A rank should be able defend and counter attack on same time.Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions. The match pretty much one sided... ...Was he really this weak? Then as he read my thinking she step back. Eliza who feel something wrongimmediately stopped fora moment. Then noticed there was something wrong with him and a black aura started coming out. Berserk ability huh. But this was artificial one.Everyone begin started their uproar. because berserk ability was killy sign moves and they sure he would won. but the main problem is.. "Hey,you bastard explain this to me. How did he get your blood?"(Ezax) Killy bloods had a ability to made other person go berserk. depend on the person the duration of berserk varies and the strength also differ. "Maybe because I accidentally donate blood to some children who need it?"(Killy) ....Accidentally my ass.I was pissed off by him take out some iron paper fan(Paper fan variation) because normal one wasn''t enough. "PLEASE LEARN THAT YOUR BLOOD WAS DANGEROUS!!!YOU SHITTY HEAD!!!"(Ezax) DAmn it ,why he was so an idiot. Well a person with right mind wouldn''t drink his blood. "What kind of miracolous elixir was that?"(Hikari) "Hikari,His blood was double edges sword. When people drink it ,they would gain a boosted power for a while but once it over they would died. Well for that guy over there who using it ...he maybe didn''t notice that. "(Ezax) It was a top secret . so rarely one knows. Well it wasn''t that much secret because of his idiocy. THought I knew the reason why he was so weak. maybe he hold himself not to go berserk .that''s why his move are so sluggish. "Anyway!!!Save that for later.wasn''t Eliza life was in danger?"(Hikari) "Don''t worry she still had her trump card. "(Ezax) As I say that ,A red aura begin to envelope her and her eyes become gold. ... "See,This is the real berserk. It much stronger than artificial one. Don''t worry... She would won this."(Ezax) ......The guy ...once he used it he would lose. No matter how strong you are.. an uncontrolled berserk would absoulety do nothing. Beside.. this was the proof. The proof of the successor of that double blades Soluna.Eliza Immediately Started her own attacks first Slice and dash. She do it repeatly so the enemies cannot hit her . The guy who losing control try to counter attack but he hits only hair then once she already hit enough, she thrust her wooden sword to his neckafter running around. there was no way he could defend that... Well supposed.. the battle was anti-climatic wasn''t it?I expect him to resist more thought. Once he fall unmoved the referee declared Eliza as the winner. Everyone immediately went into uproar. Because they found successor of killy .in this world where full of monster nothing more reassuring to had a great knight protect the city from the oncoming raid of monster. That''s why military or adventurer was necessary for this world. Then there was a noble lady went protest. "That girl must be cheating!! There was no way a girl born from common family could won!!!"(Noble lady) Looks like this lady was that guy''s wife. ...Still Why the candidate royal blade didn''t move? Something strange...From our investigation there should be a little connection between him and the royal blade. Ignoring her ,Killy Go to The double blades Soluna. He lift it up then go to the battle area and handed to her. "As the host of this competition I congratulate you as the winner of this tornament. And Give you Soluna as the proof of my Succesor."(Killy) "Thanks Father."(Eliza) Soluna ,a dragon slayer weapon. It accepts Eliza as it doesn''t retaliate then it means Eliza was accepted as the owner. She smiled at waved her hands on me. Hikari also waved her hands to her. While we were happy immediately A Magic Cage Appeared from underground and trapped both of them.I see he plan to seal the most troublesome enemy. Then He appeared with a large scythe standing on top of cage. "Hikari,don''t follow me. Your should put your life at first priority because you only life once."(Ezax) After saying that I jumped from the VIP seat . stand in front of him while draw my spear and swords. Then He point her spear on me. "Now no one would safe you anymore ,the last time we met you survived because you were saved by him. Now you would die at my hands."(Royal blade candidate) "You overestimate yourself too much. You think all this day ,I just sit and do nothing? I shall kill yourself personally."(Ezax) I point my sword on him. now you shall die. Chapter 29:Godly talent. Hikari POV. As I was told to take care myself ,I immediately put up some barrier then watch him,she didn''t know what was happening outside,because there was another layer of barrier. She use titania to take a look outside but she failed to get out what''s more this type of barrier was set by using magic tools . There was nothing she could do...even if she wants to help him by participating the fight. She would only be a burden if you saw the fight at the Colliseum Arena you could only blue line and yellow line from weapon clash, then some of ground and wall destruction. But you can''t see anythingother than that. If she could saw their movement she maybe could help,but she couldn''t. Then titania who was beside her suddenly let out an awe. "Amazing,so this was S rank ability which only handful people could achieve. So amazing."( Titania) "Titana you could follow their movement?"(Hikari) The fairy that flying beside her nod her head.Then she explain. "It was because magic eyes. a fairy had magic eye unlike human . We fairy have sharper perception than any other race."(Titania) "Could I learn it too?"(Hikari) "No,only fairy could do this ."(Titania) Sight ,I am so useless.. "But I can share my perception with you."(Titania) "Thanks a lot Titania, I would treat you a lord of sweet after this."(Hikari) "Yay!!"(Titania) Fairy like sweet,That''s why I love fairy~~~we had the same taste.. Titania immediately shared me her perception. After received her help I could see how was the battle unfold. It was in Ezax favor. Seeing this I let out breath of relief. Ezax Thrust his spear and aimed att opponent shoulder. The opponent try to push him by spinning his scythe around his whole body but he failed .Ezax Who already predicted that move jump vertically and do a spin slash. The opponent try dodge it but there was a graze. Once Ezaxlanded,he immediately put his sword at back then draw his katana but it was parried by his Scythe. But the spear already moving and aim at the opponent''s head. If it pierced his head ,Then It would be Ezax win!!! The opponent then immediately chant a barrier. A magic?He Instant cast a level 8 magic? Even thought It crashed when the spear pierced the barrier but it slowed down the spear which allow him to dodge it. Ezax who see his attack failed immediately pulled back while put back his spear and sheathe his katana then draw his bow. Then He create 5 fire arrow and fired it at him ,the opponent repel it and try to go near him . Ezax put the bow at his back then draw his staff and equip the whip from his waist . Before the enemy could attack, he already moved using water near his leg. "water magic?"(Hikari) level 3 water magic. Water skater.. it allows you to move throught water..A person with good capability able to use it boost his own speed.. Then after Ezax dodged his attack. The opponent touch the ground using his scythe and many chain appeared. Ezax saw this immediately move away as run from it . He go to the wall and do wall running while moving upside down to dodge opponent the attack.This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon. "Why he didn''t counter attack?"(Hikari) Then I Noticed the Blue Gem at his staff was shining with .He was chanting. He was chanting for a big spell. The enemy who noticed this immediately summon more chain. Ezax reaction seeing this he madehuge ice chunk with his whip and made it crash with the chain. once it crash he made an ice shard and hammer the chain to the ground. once he did that he stopped and go to ground. Then i saw a giant water ball appeared above the colliseum. that water ball enough to cover the area with water. Ezax says it tiny voice. "Drop of Poseidon tears.."(Ezax) Once he says the immediately jump above the magical cage. Then the water ball as it react to ezax movement explode .a giant stream of waterappeared and sunk battle field left only top of the magical cage. The opponent but still alive ,as his head popped out from water. Then Ezax immediately put the whip back on his waist and pulled out his knife and a lighting begin wrapped around his dagger. "Hey,hey wasn''t that dangerous?"(Hikari) Then as it answered my question he use the water as it base and use the lighting to shock the water. Thanks to magic cage that form barriers for Eliza and the pervert old man they were fine. but surely the enemy would become a corpse after taking this... then once all of the lighting shock the entire water. Its gone..as vanish without trace. A water magic couldn''t be drinking or anything. Once the water serve their purpose they will dissapear. Then I noticed there was a black ball at battlefield ,what is that? Then the opponent appeared with a smoke rising from his body,looks like he was barely escaped it. But he was badly damaged. Ezax then dash to his opponent. The opponent who try to step back. Ezax still keep attacking using his knifes...wasn''t this too rash? Knife only have short range compared to sword or spear why he still continue to attack? Then for a moment the speed of his hand, which holding the knife increased even the magical eyes could barely perceive it. but it stabbed his shoulder which holding the scythe. After stabbed his hands release the scythe. Why? He release it? I noticed his opponentshands which had been stabbed are trembling. "Ezax,He discharged the lighting inside his body? althought it was quite weak it was enough to numb a person."(Hikari) the opponent try to punch him with hidden blade appear from his slave..Ezax saw this immediately parry it with his knife and draw his katana and severedthe opponent hand. "AGH!!!"(The opponent) Ignoring his painful cry,Ezax kick him in stomach then stab his body with the knife. The opponent Painful echoes cried once more. "Agh!!"(The opponent) Noticing his life in danger the opponent step back. Ezax wanted to chase him but there was an arrow that fly to him. because of that ezax choose to jumb back . A distance was created.,,,the opponent whose lost their breath and badly wounded. While Ezax still keep his calm and no wound on his body. The opponent was a royal blade candidate... but he lost miserably... "So all training we done.. are only play to him? "(Hikari) Now I realized,a difference in rank mean a very different rank in their power. Would she be able to get this strong? Narrator POV "Ezax..how could he be this strong?"(Eliza) As Eliza watched the battle unfold she was in awe. this was the guy she choose... "That boy ,just who is he?"(?????) A voice a young woman resounded throught the barrier.It was from Soluna.Soluna was a double blades with Soul of the creator and the user of it. The reason why Eliza could see what happen was because Soluna help her . "Wasn''t it awesome Soluna? that guy was the Royal Blade in this generation and the most the talented royal blade in history!!"(killy) "Awesome my ass!!!! Even I who had live long enough never seen this kind of monster ever in my life!! You damn brat why you hiding it from me !!"(Soluna) Soluna never knows his existence,even She told killy to tell him if there is anyone with talent like him. Because she like talented person and hardworking person the most. "Eliza,That guy how old is he? 30?"(Soluna) Based on Soluna experience to reach this kind of degree of strength,He must be at least early 30. Even he is hardworker more than anyone else then it would be 25.Eliza scratch her cheek. She was thinking should she told her or not? well even if she hide it,Soluna would soon knew. "He is 16 years old."(Killy) "Hoo....16. very young indeed... he wasn''t event twenty."(Soluna) ....After pause a moment. "WHAT DID YOU SAY!!! 16? !!!!!THE FU CK? HIS GROWTH WAS EVEN THE FASTEST IN HISTORY!!!HIS RACE!!! WHAT WAS HIS RACE!!"(Soluna) Soluna wanted to slam her head on wall,How the hell he nurtured? His weapon mastery already at S rank level at least. What''s more he way of using magic and his spell power only could be achieved after 15 years of training. To achieve it at 16 years old... It is only possible if the baby could use sword. Was he natural born cheat? "Half dragoon and Half human."(Eliza) "!!!!EVEN THE RACE WAS HALF OF THE STRONGEST RACE!!!WHAT THE HELL!!"(Soluna) Killy was surprised. He never expect Soluna to lose her composure this much...if he knows he should tell her faster. because her reaction was the most insteresting from her. "How many dragon does he have?"(Soluna) If he has 2 then he was already very talented. Thought many dragons doesn''t mean stronger but he would at least a high dragoon. but there was no way that was possible because it was only 1 in 1000000 people to have 2 dragons. "7."(Eliza) ...........................There was a silent for a moment then.. "!@$##!$##!@@$!#!!"(Soluna) No one understand what she was saying. It must be ancient language was what Eliza and killy thinking. But it was wrong.. It just Soluna was shocked and don''t know what was she said.7!!! That number was even the first in history!!! If he wasn''t good at fight then he was already monster. But he was both strong and had 7 dragons. What kind of godly talent was this?As Soluna was thinking that the battle already achieved its end. Another hands of the opponent was already cut off. Chapter 30:Dragoon awakening? Once I severed another arm of his,He felt on his knees. "Why,why I lost to you?"(Selas) .....Maybe you got stronger by learning Dark magic..but in the end your biggest weakness was the lack of your ability. Your ability didn''t even reach S rank. More likely you couldn''t even use half of it. That''s why I could defeat you easily.. well there was no way you understand for someone who didn''t knows hard work,you would never understand. Someone that always risk their life at battle field...you didn''t had any those. A talent without work are useless. well even I told him that He wouldn''t understand anyway. "Maybe in the past I lost to you,but not now. Today will be your death Selas!!"(Ezax) I swing my sword to severe his head but just before my sword land on him ,A hands interfree..this is a corpse? I stand back...don''t tell me the dark magic he learned. "Even I use forbidden techniques I WOULD NEVER LOST!!!!!"(Selas) A zombie start to rise from grounds...Necromancer...This is dangerous...I cast barrier to hikari ,Immediately A chain appeared in audience seat and pierced their heart. many of the audience try to run and defend themselves..but it would be a matter of time before all of them died. I must stop him!!! STOP IT!!!!! Immediately the barrier appeared from below of me and cage me in !!This ancient barrier it was too strong!!! !!!!! I saw hikari get out from VIP seat and defend some people with her spell.!!!! "Stop it Hikari!!!!!"(Ezax) She didn''t hear me..this barrier was sound proofed too? That''s why I couldn''t hear anything!!! I must break the barrier before ,but the stronger the spell the stronger area it hit.. what should I do?! Hikari POV "Wall of light."(Hikari) I must protect the other remaining civilian!!Until Ezax could escaped from the barrier. "Everyone who could cast magic please cast defensive magic if it was offensive spell please destroy the chain that aiming for us!!!!"(Hikari) "Yes!!"(Civilian and some nobles) We must survived !! Until Ezax could get outside from barrier we must survived!!!! After a moment the corpse started pile around behind him.. This royal blade candidate to think he fall this low. Necromancer were forbidden magic.. they use people life as toy any kingdom found them ,they must be killed becaue necromancer didn''t value people life. what''s more if they gain enough manpower or zombie they could destroy the whole kingdom. It was the most dangerous that shouldn''t be let alive. "Why,weren''t you Royal Blade supposed to protect people!!"(Hikari) "It was just for a fame,why should we care each other!! It just position!!Position to control others!!"(Selas) Then the corpse begin to melt and blood gushing out from their body...then bit by a bit..it becomes a huge monster... A dragon head without fless appear,then slowly the corpse dissolved into a bone made its body,wings and every part of bone dragon..!! this was one of necromancer spell Zombie dragon. "Zombie dragon go eat them!!!"(Selas) "ROARR!!"(Zombie dragon) The zombie dragon as it was ordered... Open its jaw try chomp us. But a barrier osbtruct its path.. who cast it? Then the dragon zombie kept trying to penetrates the barrier.I would try talking to him,I hope he had still remnant of humanity left...and give us a bit mercy.If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. "You !!You failure as Royal Blade!!!A Royal Blade Supposed to protect others!!"(Hikari) "Such a things only exist in fiction you fools!!Bone dragon!!!!!eat them alive !!"(Selas) The bone dragon change target and aims the little girls behind me,I must protect her!!! Use my body as shield I try to cover her. it hit my barrier once again... "If you want to die that soon,then I should kill you for you!!Bone dragon Acid breath!!!"(Selas) "I won''t die!!Wall of light."(Hikari) The dragon breath an acid on us,even the wall of light were melted easily..then it hit the barrier.....Please hold it..once the breath ended... the surrounding place around us already melted......Then it moves it claw ..I must survived...as I hugged the little girl tightly.. "Wall of light!!"(Hikari) It penetrates my defensive spell easily,and push me usaway by the force of impact. The barrier it was already gone? "Bone dragon !!Acid breath once again!!"(Selas) The dragon spit the breath once again..Damn it.Closing my eye preparing for the breath...but after a moment nothing happened at us.. "I told you didn''t I? Not to go to into my battles!"(Ezax) "Ezax.."(Hikari) His hands ..both of them was wounded very badly....... "How could you penetrate the barrier!!!The barrier repelled all weapons!!!even if you try to smash it with bare hands,you hands would be broken first.!"(Selas) "For normal people,all of people with right mind wouldn''t do that, even if they do that.. they would run after seeing the bone dragon flying which could rival S rank monster..what''s more only could be killed with white magic."(Ezax) I noticed his head..there was a blood coming out....He was wounded that badly yet he still save me. "Well even me from around 1 month ago,I would do the same. But I couldn''t do that now."(Ezax) "Ezax?"(Hikari) "After all,she was the first person that so persistent to follow me regardless my crazy dream. That''s why I would never let her die!!"(Ezax) He could barely wield the sword. at this rate he would die!!! "What were you doing Hikari?run with the others now!!! I would hold him off!!so run!!"(Ezax) He then jumped toward the bone dragon while holding the sword with both of his hands. Everyone who survived ,then begin to get out from the audience seat and started to saved their life and run to exit...the little girl who I protected tugged my clothes.. "Nee-san let''s run!!"(Little girl) ...what should I do? should I evacuate ? Even I want to help him ,I couldn''t do anything....I couldn''t even help him.as I thinking Ezax was sent to the beside me breaking the seat. "Ugh..if only I could Use 2 weapons as usual."(Ezax) .... One of Ezax hands are broken..at this rate he would die!!!!!!!There was a thing that I could do!!!! I would sacrifice myself!! Ezax POV As I was sent to the audience seat after get hit by the bone dragon tail. Damn,I took lightly bone dragon. I shouldn''t force my way out if i know this happened..still if I did that . Then Hikari Would Die...As I thought this Hikari Immediately go to in front of me and held her arms wide. "Ezax,I would become decoy. So please run"(Hikari) This girl... really she has some screws loose on her head. "HIKARI AREYOU AN IDIOT!!!!There was no way you could hold by yourself!!You would only get yourself killed!!"(Ezax) "SHUT UP!!!IF YOU DON"T LIKE IT THEN DON''T LIKE IT THEN DON''T GO DYING ON ME!!! IF YOU DIED!! THEN I COULDN''T LIVE!!!"(Hikari) "IDIOT!!! THERE WAS NO TIME FIGHT!!!THE DRAGON ALREADY PREPARED TO USE ITS BREATH!!!GET OUT FROM HERE!!!DON''T BE SO PERSISTENT!!"(Ezax) She immediately mad at me.. "THEN DON''T DIE ON ME!!!!WE ARE GONNA LIFE AND SPEND OUR PEACEFUL LIFE TOGETHER !!!UNTIL YOU FULFILLED YOUR PROMISE !! I WON''T DIE!!"(Hikari) What an idiot girl!!!!!!Even I don''t want to show the dragon looks ,but there was no other choice..Just I prepared to summon my dragon... the time moved slowly..ugh someonedrag me to my deepest mind.. "Wait a minute.."(Fafnir) "Fafnir,good timing..I need your help to protect her."(Ezax) "Ezax you want to protect her right?"(Fafnir) "Yeah,she was my first friend after all."(Ezax) ....fafnir then grumbled for a bit,then he appeared in front of me,.. "Made a contract with her!!Then I would lend you half of my power!"(Fafnir) All of them only lend me 25% of their power. Only If I fulfill their requirement they would lend me more of them..but I didn''t expect with this fafnir crazy proposal!! "You bastard!!You told me to marry her?"(Ezax) Yes..to dragoon race. Contract means marriage.. "~~~ you will need my power sooner or later anyway..this my requirement for lending my power. It wasn''t that bad anyway~~"(Fafnir) THIS FUCKING DRAGON!!!! "I don''t mind if you reject it,beside it was you who needed my power.."''(Fafnir) !@!#@#!@!##! THIS DRAGON!!! "How about it? 50% power of mine enough for you to defeat the bone dragon in front of you with ease."(Fafnir) If only I didn''t my force my way out before ,I could defeat the bone dragon!!! well,Just could thought... not 100% "Time was moving~~~"(Fafnr) Fafnir after this I promise ,I would give you a beating!!!I am kinda interested in power that you lend me.. "Fine,I accept to make a contract with her!!!!Only after the battle over!!"(Ezax) "You think I am an idiot?Surely you would brushed it aside after the battle over."(Fafnir) He got me there.. "Then what should I do?"(Ezax) Just get to point already. "Kiss her. Simple enough wasn''t it?"(Fafnir) .......Let me kill you!!!! "You already do it anyway. Surely it wasn''t that hard."(Fafnir) THIS FUCKING DRAGON!!!!!! DID HE WANT TO DIE THAT MUCH!!! "If you didn''t do that,then I will appear in front of you and use my body to shield..everything was up to you."(Fafnir) "Wait!!"(Ezax) Immediately the time flow return to normal. FINE IT WAS ONLY MOUTH TO MOUTH ANYWAY!!!!! "Hikari!!"(Ezax) I pull her to me. "eh?what were you d-"(Hikari) I seal her lips with mine....then after separated Hikari Immediately blushed. Even I found it very embarrassing. "Wohoo!!! NICE!!!"(Fafnir) "Master!what kind of obscene act you were doing!!!"(the rest of dragon) I would fucking killl you after this fafnir!!! "Now lend me your power FAFNIR!!"(Ezax) "Let''s become dragoon shall we?"(Fafnir) Hmm dragoon?Then A dragon emblem appear at my left hands....wasn''t I supposed not to have any dragons emblem ?what was this mean? "Divine Dragoon armament!! !!"(Fafnir) As he said that..I noticed Hikari had also my emblem on her hand...then my arm begin to wrapped in light.. ,when it disperses a white armor appeared at my left hands..there was also asword with blueish light and gold handle appear at my right hands. This sword...compared to mithril.. this was the best..Then sword started to talk..it was fafnir voice.. "Excalibur equipped!!Now Finish the bone dragon !!!!"(Fafnir) "If its weak,then after this I would bury you fafnir!!"(Ezax) "Sure,sure..talk after finish them off!!"(Fafnir) Then as soon our talk ended. The bone dragon use its acid breath.Ugh!! I should dodge first. Chapter 31:Dragonewt. Hikari passed out....most likely from embarrastment,honestly I am rather surprisedbecause hikari was aggresive type..well this made my work easier....The bone dragon release the acid breath...but everything move slower compared to before. As I dodge to the right...Fafnir says.. "Eak!!She doesn''t have much magic left!!!Ezax finish it soon!!"(Fafnir) easy to you to say!!! I dodge to the right while carrying Hikari. "What should I do then fafnir?"(Ezax) Such a useless dragon. I thought that as I dodge the bone dragons move and cut his claw so easily.. what a sharpness my mithril sword would be a wooden stick compared to this sword..... "Who knows,you were the holder not mine...but I will give you tips.."(Fafnir) "Then give it already.."(Ezax) You were the one who saying we are running out of time right? Then why you dragging the point? "An attack that could wipe the whole area,so the enemies won''t revived. If not the zombie dragon would keep reviving right?"(Fafnir) ....Right..if the zombie dragon destroyed...it would keep reviving as long the necromancer alive..but to kill just necromancer..such a thing is impossible..because he was heavily guarded by dragon bone..If there was some hight priest that could do a area purification then it would be easy... but thanks to fafnir idiot suggestion she passed out thought..our only hope. "Oh yeah,I forgot..the sword of light you often used ,now has purification ability, This would made your work easier right?"(Fafnir) .......Seriously I would hang you once this battle over!!! "Oh yeah,you could cast star shine too,but You could use it once considering the remaining of your magic power.thought it was hard to hit but the power was really great."(Fafnir) Finally S rank dragon magic...I must cast it while dodging the others....after that I put Hikari on vip seat and cast barrier on her..then I immediately started chanting while dodging its attack.. " a red light thatshine more brighter than anything."(Ezax) As I started chanting,the bone dragon become more aggresive ,it was too late for you.. " a light that born from eating others lights."(Ezax) It use acid breath but...I dodge it. "Gather and unite above my palm."(Ezax)If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. Then as I move my hands in front of me a Ball of red light appear..not yet. "Become star that shine bright more than anything."(Ezax) Then as it respod to my cast the red line shine more brighter..finally at this phase huh.. "Now cast it Ezax."(Fafnir) "Sorry,I doubt it could kill the bone dragon..the only way was to destroy the whole body right?"(Ezax) "Ezax?Then why you cast it?"(Fafnir) "For crazy idea of mine."(Ezax) Immediately I put the spell at the sword ..Then sword layered with red light as it answered my wish.. "Create a new way !!With the red light as it guide!!"(Ezax) "don''t !!"(Selas) Then the sword glowing brighter than more anything else...now I would made you pay for everything you done!!! "Crimson Shine Break!!"(Ezax) I moved to the front of the bone dragon and swung the sword... then A huge pillar of red light envelop the whole dragon..... "ROAR!!!"(Bone dragon) "NO!!!I don''t want to die!!"(Selas) The bone dragon vanished without trace..only left the necromancer...who passed out from the light...still my light cannot kill a person....I guest Its convenient in its own way. as I thought that while seeing...suddenly my body feel tired..........then the sword and the gauntlet too dissapear...ugh...looks I am forced myself too much... "Ezax!!"(Hikari) So she has woken up huh...I would sleep for a bit...as I lost all of my strength.. Hikari catch me..but at the same time I also fall asleep... Narrator POV In the ancient barrier.. ".That was fafnir!!!.."(Soluna) "What do you mean soluna?"(Killy) As killy surprised...with she saying Soluna immediately said. "IT WAS HUMAN DRAGON GOD FAFNIR!!! I Am Sure of it!!!(Soluna) "Human dragon god?"(Eliza) Eliza doesn''t know what it means...even Killy also confused..He never heard such a thing.. "A dragon that exist to protect humanity..even when I was still alive it was a myth. A Dragon with crimson light that shine to protect human..to ensure Humanity existence..that is fafnir.(Soluna) "Are you sure you aren''t mistaken?"(Killy) "No I am sure of it. The red light was fafnir!!!!! Beside a dragoon form wasn''t like that!! the dragoon I seen was more lizard one not an a sword and a gauntlet."(Soluna) "...Then Ezax really was chosen one?"(Eliza) "......Hey Eliza...what was the other names of other dragon?"(Soluna) Soluna didn''t answer Eliza,instead asking her.. ".....the other dragon I knows were only Brionac.It has silver blue scale.."(Eliza) !!!!!!!Soluna more shocked..2 dragon god? Does this mean the other dragon was also dragon? After she thought for a moment,she then said.. "Eliza,follow him..no matter what follow him."(Soluna) "Soluna?"(Eliza) "Just do it...beside you love him right?.."(Soluna) "FUAHH!!what were you saying?!!"(Eliza) Eliza blushing and try to deny it..but soluna who found it cute continously tease her,,,as they teach other..The barrier was running out and gones...killy..saw this haste to the royal blade candidate who was laying on ground unmoving.. "Don''t think badly me of royal blade candidate...You hurt my son in law..so there was no way I let you slide..."(Killy) Killy pick up the scythe then he.. "Bye.."(Killy) Killy severed his head... "Sigh...why my job was cleaning some trash that my own sonin law already defeated?give me break..."(Killy) Killy then go to Ezax who was sleeping soundly on hikari''s lap...with Eliza and Soluna beside her.. "...why my harem wasn''t like this!! THIS WASN"T FAIR!!!HEY DRAGON GOD!!! ANSWER ME!!!"(Killy) Inside of Ezax mind.. Space room.. Bahamut and fafnir were talking.. "Fafnir...you already found the contractor ?Or supposed I say..Master bride.(Bahamut) The rest of dragons,didn''t have memory of it..only Bahamut and Fafnir who still remember what they were..that''s why compared to others they more clever...they were also lying the requirement to use their power was by doing what they required..what the dragoons required were contractor..because Ezax blood were special. It wasn''t dragoon blood..it was dragonewt..a blood that produced only if human and dragoon mate with 1 in 1000.000 chance....the reason he was going to be killed must be had connection with his dragonewt blood. "Dragonewt blood are the only host for us...but our power was limited..that''s why we need to made contract with the race that we supposed to protect. By doing that he could use 100% our power."(Fafnir) "......"(Bahamut) "How about it? Quit with the revenge things..you were also dragon gods right? Dragon gods of dragoon race Bahamut..."(Bahamut) "No..I would never forgive the race who betrayed me...."(Bahamut) Bahamut then left fafnir alone...seeing this fafnir sighed.. "Still to think it was 75% come out.....looks like Ezax just was a Tsundere toward Hikari...well I won''t hasten it.....only by made Ezax Fall in love hikari,my power could getting out...dragonewt...what a pain you are.."(Fafnir) After he say that Fafnir left and back to his own space.....while huming..after all Hikari was like his daughter who died.. Chapter 32:After battle Uproar. Ugh..as I opened my eyes....I saw familiar face..Hikari..I see it was just Hikari who was sleeping.. ........wait a Minute "WHAT ARE YOU DOING AT MY BED!!!"(Ezax) I kick her from my bed!!!This girl!! When she would learn her lesson?as she hit her head and rubbing her head she opened her eyes.. "Fuah..why you were so cruel to your own wife?"(Hikari) since when you were my wife?We never married or anything... "Are you still dreaming?"(Ezax) She immediately blushed and put her hands on the cheek while blushing . "You kiss me at your own accord..that was already the proof."(Hikari) ..Ah..that time!!!FAFNIR!!!!!!!ALL OF THIS WERE YOUR FAULT!!!!!! "Listen to me okay?all of it was because my dragon okay? I don''t love you or anything else..understand?"(Ezax) As I said that,she only smiled and.. "Yeah,I understood."(Hikari) Weird,why she was obedience today? "After all fafnir says you weren''t honest to yourself and act just like Tsundere."(Hikari) What the fu ck?How could you understand what fafnir saying? .....and when did you had that talk? I would ask fafnir.. FAFNIR!!!.. .....wait why he didn''t come out?then the door opened and fafnir come out in his chibi form.. "...fafnir how could you exit my body?"(Ezax) "Since beginning all of us could exit your body whatever we want...it just a pain to walk outside..that''s why most of time we stayed inside your body. Thought you could summon us at anytime."(Fafnir) "I see...by the way Fafnir what random lies you spout?"(Ezax) As I was pissed off,Fafnir knows that he was on danger and try to run..but I catch him just before he could run.Then His expression turn into serious.. "Wasn''t what I say was the truth?"(Fafnir) Oh..so you were like that...by the way dragon can''t be killed even if they killed as long their host alive the dragon would keep surviving that''s why.. "I think I should kill you after all!!"(Ezax) I said with full smile,Fafnir try to flap his wing but failed..he try to run but failed.. "Hikari ,Today I would cook you a food that you never eat before.. "(Ezax) Hikari tilted her head then I say with evil grin. If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. "Dragon skewer."(Ezax) .... "SOMEONE HELP ME!!!"(Fafnir) No one you understand you except hikari and me.. so just accept your fate your mother fucking dragon!!! 4 hours later.. So I was sleep for 1 day..and my injury wasn''t that bad...after that Killy clean the rest of the rebel outside while Eliza and Hikari protected me..then I was carried to Killy mansion. Eliza was out for shopping..while Killy was at castle having a discussion with the king.Shiro followed Eliza just to be safe...left me alone with Hikari.Then because some accident Hikari believed fafnir lies and go sleep with me....now as I put him on stake and create some fire surround him..I would roast him slowly..because of him ,Hikari act like this!! "Dear,how many child do you want ?"(Hikari) "I am not your husband!!!''(Ezax) How many times must I say it!!! "But you kiss me..on your own accord.Hehehe,finally you accepted my feelign~~"(Hikari) I can''t refute that..ugh.I Would kill this bastard dragon!!! AS I draw my sword...fafnir immediately said.. "Wait wait!!!!!!There was no other way!!She was necessary for using my power!!"(Fafnir) "...hmm what?"(Ezax) What does he mean? "To use me 100% you need someone that helped you and must be the one you chose as bride from human race!!!"(Fafnir) "So the point?"(Ezax) "..I already chooseher as your bride,so you must love her equally..onnly by that way you could use 100% power."(Fafnir) ...ho I see...wasn''t there a better woman you can choose?YOU BASTARD!!!Then suddenly Hikari stop me.. "Before Fafnir said to me "it can''t be just my decision ,it must me master feeling..only if master love her then it was possible..".."(Hikari) ..so you mean ..subconsciously I love her. As I blushed to ear,Hikari immediately starting to tease me!!! "To think,you also loved me that much!!!so you just was embarrased..the reason you push me after all just was because you were embarrased?"(Hikari) "NO!!!!!WAY!!!AFTER ALL YOU WERE OUT OF MY STRIKE ZONE!!"(Ezax) I don''t care you hate me or not after this but I would say.. "My Ideal was different from you!!she isn''t flat."(Ezax) " But in reality you fall in love with me~~it was too late to say that~~"(Hikari) DAMN IT!!!!!!!ALL OF THIS WAS BECAUSE FAFNIR FAULT!!!!!I WOULD SKEWER YOU!!! I WOULD BEHEAD YOU!!!!!YOU MOTHERFUCKING DRAGON !!!!!!

Suddenly someone stop me.. "Ezax,don''t do it!!!! Calm down your head!"(????) Ha who say that?As I looked around I found no one......then I notice some in-.no a fairy..flying around.. ".......what a fairy doing here?"(Ezax) "I am titania,Hikari''s fairy."(Titania) .....seriously? I never heard a case where a fairy followed person.....as expected of Hikari..she never cease to surprise me.... "Ezax you were kind person right!!So killings were no good!!Beside He is already helped you!!!"(Titania) Oh...she was right..looks like I lost myself in rage.. "Thanks for reminding me that..I owe you one Titania."(Ezax) There was no need for kill him..after it would only a split second satisfaction.. "I should torture him slowly after ,after all a killing was no good."(Ezax) "!!!!!!!!"(Titania & Hikari) They immediately hugged me to stop me..sorry no matter what you do !!I already set my mind to torture him!!! HE MUST TAUGHT A LESSON!!! "WUAH!!! HELP ME!!"(Fafnir) Fafnir tried to struggle...but was failed..kukuku? how''s that? After all I seal your real form for a moment...in chibi form what you could do? "STOP IT AT ONCE !!!!"(?????) "Now who dare to stop me again???"(Ezax) As I look around I saw Eliza and Shiro..who said that? As I look around the voice resounded once again.. "Me !!Soluna.."(Soluna) .......the voice come from Eliza double blades...A talking double blades?....AM I dreaming? TO meet a fairy and a talking double blades.today sure the worst day..forget it!! I MUST PUNISH HIM FIRST!!!!!FAFNIR!! "Stop it!!He was a dragon god!!Don''t do anything weird!!!!!Don''t Kill him or torture him!!"(Soluna) ".....Kill him was wrong..torture him was wrong !!then what should I do?"(Ezax) ''Just forgive him already..after all he was doing it for your sake."(Soluna) ......kuh,as long he didn''t change his way. I won''t stop!!!!wait I only need to do both of them. "Shiro do you know coffin shop near here?"(Ezax) "Yeah?What do you need?"(Shiro) Everyone also doesn''t understand what I mean.. "I am gonna bury him alive."(Ezax) I smiled evilly at them.. They immediately become pale looking.. "Ezax PLEASE CALM DOWN!!"(Everyone) 4 hours later.. "Please don''t get out of control next time.."(Soluna) "Sorry."(Ezax) once I said that..everyone back to their own rooms. Fafnir you were lucky...if not for them I would already bury you!! I thought that as I stare at fafnir.fafnir immediately go hiding somewhere else.. Fine already,I am more interested in dragon things.. "Fafnir would you mind told me more about dragon god?"(Ezax) Fafnir immediately get out from his hiding then say.. "...I couldn''t tell you. after all I don''t know myself."(Fafnir) "....I see.."(Ezax) ''But I can tell you one thing."(Fafnir) "What?"(Ezax) "That each of us were dragon that protect different races for example me are humans,Bahamut are dragoons..."(Fafnir) wait..you said each then the others also the same? As he read my thought..he nod his head..then. "There was another 2 races that not even the whole world known??"(Ezax) "just 1.."(Fafnir) "What?"(Ezax) "...to know more about that..you should go visit the ruin. It was located deep insidethe hunting ground..or more likely dungeon."(Fafnir) I see....7 races... there was 7 races in the world..just what was happening to them?something runs deeper..runs more deep than anything else..still I must save mother father. and seria. I would save them no matter what!!!! I had promised myself that long ago and I would never broke it!! never!! Narrator POV. "Nii-san."(??????) A girl with long black hair was gazing at the moon while longing for her brother.......she was Ezax sister.. "Nii-san where were you?"(Seria) Seria was crying while asking herself..then she . "Nii-san,If I met you again."(Seria) After all things matter to her was her lost brother..because their parents was traitor!!!Traitor that used their own childs.that''s why Seria would never forgive them...only her nii-san that left for her..that love her whole heartedly. that''s why she.. "You are mine only!"(Seria) Chapter 33:Preparations. 5 days already passed,my wound has already completely healed and I also finished some paper work regarding my action. instead than of paper work..it was more likely record..after all they would announced that it was the royal blade who end this rebels..wh Now I was shopping with Hikari,thought Hikari were woman she didn''t like clothes ,jewelry or perfume that much. She said that as long ,I said she was beautiful she didn''t need all of those.sight...was she really a princess? As we walked to buy some food ingredients,she was touching her accessory.. she smiled. While touching it...sigh you like that kind of accessory huh? "Stop smiling like that,It creeps me out.."(Ezax) "yes yes~~~~"(Hikari) She holds my hand..this is the tenth time..even If I brushed her aside she kept try to hold my hands. Sigh,I would just give in... "Hehehe..so warm."(Hikari) She started smiled again...sight..just what she like from me? She is more stickier then a glue...anyway let''s finish this shopping and rest at homes... While we were buying something,suddenly we met the little girl who Hikari protected before. She also with her parents..the first time she saw us,she immediately bow and thank youus. "Oni-san,One-chan thanks for saving me!"(Little girl) "You''re welcome !!"(Hikari) She smiled and pat her while saying that,she would be a good mother. If only she wasn''t so persistent...sigh.. "Thanks for saving our daughter!!"(Parents) "It''s fine."(Ezax) "Would you mind if we treat you ?After all both of you were savior of our daughter."(Father) I see,well I don''t mind. How about hikari? "How about you Hikari?"(Ezax) I asked her question,she then immediately smiled and told me. "I am fine with it,after all I want to spend my time with this little girl~~~"(Hikari) She had a soft spot on child...No..from her smile I could say she like child very much.. "Okay,we accept it."(Ezax) They nod ,then we visit a restaurant nearby. It was restaurant for nobles..but for the lower class. This was good,after all I hate the high class and such.He was a clever noble...Once we finished eating. The girls was playing with the little girl,While I had chat with her father. He wants me to stay in this city and payback by giving me a mansion for saving both of his life and her daughter.. but I refused her by telling him I need todo something before I could stay in city. Once I said that,then he tell me about something new. "Do you know Pixie?"(Little girl''s father) "Pixie?"(Ezax) A same kind of fairy,but unlike fairy who possess magical power. Pixie doesn''t have magical power at all,but It was blessed with its natural perception and instict which made Pixie the best guide to go to core of dungeon..It could discern trap,hidden path and even dangerous enemies.. Also Pixie doesn''t have wings and they were more pure than a fairy...but their size was the same. because of that they weren''t mischievous as fairy and often help people.. They could be seen by many people..because of that pixie often captured and be sold....still Pixie was very rare...So it was more expensive than A ranks spatial storage rings..You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version. "Yeah,by why you mention it?"(Ezax) "There would bean auction for the pixie and It would be held tonight."(Little girl''s father) A Pixie,considered their life was in danger I should buy the pixie. Beside I get ''some''gold by looting the previous royal blade candidate. As expected of rich person. A pixie would cost 1000 gold at most....the money should be enough. "Would you mind telling me more about it?"(Ezax) After that he told me more about it,where the auction held and such. Once it ends..we parted with them. But Once we parted with them..Hikari said. "Ezax..once we married how many child do you want?"(Hikari) ".....WE WEREN"T GOING TO GET MARRIED!!!"(Ezax) All of this was fafnir fault!!!SHIT!! "how about 2?"(Hikari) "HELL NO!!"(Ezax) She keep saying whatever she wants until we arrived at Killy mansion. I told them I wanted to buy pixie..Eliza and Hikari nodded after all I was the leader of the party..Then I told killy I would go to this auction but by a coincidence Killy would also go to auction..after all Healso want to buy somethings. Then the night arrived and we were riding on carriage.On the way to the auction ,I asked Hikari.. "Say since when Titania followed you?"(Ezax) "It was around when we was at your hometown,I met her and She followed us after that."(Hikari) ....This girl..She keen to perceive orther secrets but good to protect his own secrets. What a great talent for being a queen..well Her attitude was a problem thought. "Sorry Ezax,Hikari-san told me not to tell you."(Eliza) "It was fine."(Ezax) Nor I angry about,still the main reason Titania Followed Hikari must because they were friend. Titania fly over then sit on my shoulder..weren''t you afraid before? "Warm~~"(Fairy) Like peas in same pod huh,well it was just child. as long it doesn''t disturb me or do any mischievous thing ,I wouldn''t mind keeping them. "Ezax,Me too!!"(Hikari) "Hell no!!"(Ezax) "Why were you so much tsundere!!"(Hikari) "Who the hell was tsundere!!(Ezax) Hikari cover her ear with both of her hands and pretend didn''t hear anything!!damn it !!she was really my natural enemy!!! "Umm Ezax?"(Eliza) "What''s up?"(Ezax) "About our bet.."(Eliza) "Sure ,It would be my loss after all I passed out and you win by default."(Ezax) "Eh?Seriously,I thought you won''t told anyone? Ah,I see you become more open since you realize your feeling right?(Hikari) Wait for a bit..I take out a paper fan then~~ 15 minutes later. "auw,auw..A tsundere really hard to handle."(Hikari) .......I gave up,she was too persistent.sight.. "Eliza,this would be long, but I need to told you about my past first."(Ezax) Eliza nod,then I begin to told her everything..after all she would followed me anyway. Once I finished, tears was streaming down from her eyes....hey.hey,, "So cruel.."(Eliza) "Please wipe your tear away,It just a common story anyway."(Ezax) Once I said that,the double blades then said. "...That''s why you more adult than any boy around your age..still do you really plan to take back your family from them?Dragoon race was the strongest right?"(Soluna) "I would do it no matter what.I would take back my family."(Ezax) "Sight,you were a fool ."(Soluna) I already know that...then Soluna said.. "Still,I understand why everyone attracted to you. Eliza what were you gonna do?"(Soluna) "I would help!!!!"(Eliza) Another burden to noted..sight I would took a long time to made them could survived on their own....Well having a friend wasn''t that bad..suddenly Hikari mentioned about my dad. "Ezax,I just wondering..why were your dad was there?"(Hikari) "Now that you mention it...I just noticed something strange.."(Ezax) Dragoon race was supposed to be high prided,they never even talk to orther race...but why dad was able to live in dragoon continent?Was He an important people to dragoon ? The biggest thing was..why he was married?As I thought that...We arrived at auction.Once we arrived we were escorted to VIP seats...and Killy was already waiting us there.. as expected of rich person. "So this was the reason you went earlier ?"(Ezax) "Hahaha,wasn''t it good?"(Killy) "Well pretty much."(Ezax) Once we sit ,the auction immediately begin. The auction grow silent..once it completely silent the auctioneer. While the auctioneer introduce himself..Killy then said. "Before the auction started,What Item you took interest in?"(Killy) "The Pixie!"(Ezax) "hoo..Sorry ,but this time It was my won.This time I would made you felt the feeling of loser!!"(Killy) .....For revenge I played chess with you?Well SOrry if it was 351 win for me.. "Let''s see about that.."(Ezax) Then the auctioneer begin the auction. A cage which covered by cloth appeared.. "The first auction item and also the main auction item that helds today. was this the PIXIE!!"(Auctioneer) THe auctioneer then open and show us a caged pixie..this wasn''t a normal Pixie. It was the rare the rarest pixie!!! Or it was called..Aequaliter Nebula!! It was the only pixie in the world that could use magic!!!!!!!The proof was the hair was white..and the skin was whiter compared to other Pixie..The Pixie exixtence that said to be a myth why it was here?still not many people know it..killy give a grin..this bastard ,to think He didn''t told me about it..This Pixie !! "The starting priceis 500 gold coins.now everyone bet to your hearth content!!"(Auctioneer) "550 gold coins!!" "700 gold coins!!" "900 gold coins!!" "10.000 gold coins!!"(Killy) .....The hall grew silent..after all 10.000 gold coins was enough to buy 5 mansion. Would they pay it ?The answer was no..they didn''t know it worth.a normal fairy maybe didn''t worth..but this was Aequaliter Nebula the rarest of Pixie race..no ones try to bet more than it. The auctioneer who predict this then said "Hehehe,there was no way you could outbet me..after all I had 300.000 gold with me."(Killy) Bastard..how the hell you had that much money?You don''t event know its worth!! I bet you plan to used for attracting some girl!!if you want a fight then come!! "10.000 gold for on-"(Auctioner) "50.000 gold coin!!"(Ezax) .........Everyone opened their jaws..50.000 thousand gold coin for pixie? What kind of rich man was that?.Killy ,Hikari ,Eliza,TItania opened their jawz in shock..no one say anything..even Killy was shocked...still it was worth it..I heard thatAequaliter Nebula was worth 1 million gold..after all it ,its usefulness was beyond compare..unlike other Pixie or fairy..Aqequaliter Nebula had an intiligence and was beyond human. That''s why I must get it all cost!! "50.000 gold coin for once!!"(Auctioneer) "50.000 gold coin for twice!!"(Auctioneer) "50.000 gold coins for thrice!! SOld!!"(Auctioneer) ...Nice my main objective was already cleared.. "Killy..you couldn''t won from me...in anything..even in term of money I had it higher it than you..after all I had 500.000 gold coins for today."(Ezax) At first I only plan to buy the pixie..but noticed there was a rare ore or anything like that. I would bought anything useful for me..after all the royal blade candidate was very rich.. I get around 10.000.000 gold coin just in one swoop...also his A rank spatial ring was quite good..thought before I got the money I had around 8.000.000 gold coins which was reward for ending the conflict between beastmen and Humans..or more likely I get it from them thought... Chapter 34:After the auction. "Today was really a big harvest~~~"(Ezax) I got some mithril ore,dragon silk thread and many materials that were rare...The only things that I didn''t buy was a accessory ,clothes and weapon. After all of them were only decorations compared to the real work of mine. Killy bought them thought for picking up some girls..knows your age old man. Now we were on way to the pixie while killy chat with others at audition halls... Because the pixie was included with slave contract. It was used to made pixie didn''t run after bought.. The slave contract can be used on human too but it was forbidden to do so by 5 nations. I already explained at Hikari and Eliza about slave system before they asked . Hikari then asked me while we were walking.. "Ezax,why you were interested in Pixieall of sudden?"(Hikari) "For you and Eliza safety of course. "(Ezax) "For me?"(Hikari) I nod. They were just amateur and I can''t let them die by trap.. "The dungeon we planned to clear had an S rank trap ranking."(Ezax) Eliza then join us.especially Soluna who butt in.after all she was espciallyknowledgeable in this kind of things.This double blades just who is she ?Well Forget it.... "Owah S rank,seriously...just what kind of treasure that rest in the deep of dungeon?"(Soluna) "Actually If possible I don''t want to enter dungeon. Because Hikari and Eliza wasn''t ready yet."(Ezax) "I understand that...but why you want to enter the dungeon?"(Hikari) :o,You finally know you were burden?Well good focus on your training then. Don''t get wild with your fantasies!!you damn pervert!! "Ugh!!"(Hikari) Good things you could read my mind easily..eat that sucker. "Damn it!!"(Hikari)If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. I don''t know why,she was so good at reading person expression . It was good thing ,because I can''t mock her without anyone knows I am talking about..Eliza who see this confused..like she was missed something great..back to the topic. "Fafnir told me to enter the dungeon. That''s why I want to enter the dungeon. "(Ezax) Even thought fafnir was a fox,but he would do it for my sake. that''s why I believed in him.Soluna as know what I mean then said.. "I see,then why you didn''t enter it alone.I think you would be fine by yourself."(Soluna) "Soluna,Do you I could go alone?considered them?"(Ezax) Hearing that she silent for a moment..then she answered. "Sorry for asking idiotic question.."(Soluna) Looks she understood..even if I said it was dangerous..they would enter regardlessmy warning. bringing them with me was more safe than let them go alone without me. thought that,I could made them cover my back.. they were rather capable after all. see this Hikari act so smug...learn your places...While I thought that ,we arrived at the room. I entered the room and saw the slave contract was ready,but what I am concerned was the pixie just sitting..didn''t struggle or try to break free. this is....she already losing all of her hopes?. "Ezax..she."(Hikari) "I know."(Ezax) ....I go to the cage then I said to the slave contractor. "Thanks for coming here,but I don''t want to slave her..."(Ezax) Pixie who heard this,see my face and titled her head..but fall in deppresion again..well the pixie was wearing a rag..looks like she wasn''t treat nicely. "Let''s go home everyone.."(Ezax) Once I said that,we immediately exit the room.. "Ezax what do you-"(Hikari) I put my finger on my lips,Everyone knows what that means...we should save it until we arrive at home..then we ride on carriage and went homes. Once we arrived I immediately open the cages..but the pixie didn''t come out,instead it went into cornes and shivering in the corner. This...fine. "Hikari and Eliza,can I request both of you something?"(Ezax) "Sure!!"(Hikari and Eliza) "Please take her to the bat-."(Ezax) Before I finished my words both of them already gone...holy....I know she were cute. but you don''t need to go that fast. Oh well It easier my work..ugh. It would be a waste of material..It cost me 1000 gold just for 100 grams..still I need to do it..oh god please bless me luck !! I started my own work then.. Narrator POV. Seria was doing some investigation of the ruins..everyone person followed her ended up dead because of trap.She never expect this dungeon was tricky. All of her soldier died on the way because of that. Still Seria didn''t feel even sad about their dead..she instead happy..if she found a treasure she could keep it for herself...and finally one day she could go to outside world and meet with her brother that she didn''t see for 10 years. ..maybe she could live with her brother somewhere in mountain?imagining that she smiled widely..but then she knows her mind was wandering..immediately try to stay focused... "I muststay focused!!"(Seria) As she examine mural,she found some ancient picture. It was picturing a baby born in dragoon family..and there was 7 weapons around the baby. Sword,spear,whip,staff,bow,knife and finally katana..but the Katana looks familiar...after thinking for a moment,then she found..it was the legendary katana that was protected in dragoon kingdom. Kagayaku Tsuki!!Was this child the previous holder of it?but Kagayaku Tsuki was the katana that blessed by dragon god and only could be used if the dragoon race was threatened..but until now dragoon race never face any dangers..so it was called the legendary weapon..because no one could use it..just whatit means? "For now I should keep it in mind.."(Seria) Once more seria look around. she entered a room with some magic circle around it..strange..there was a magic circle..but she didn''t find any magical energy from it..then she found some picture,it was a door....there was an ancient dragoon language writen beside it.. "Transfer....Human continent?what does this mean"(Seria) What does this mean?suddenly..the door picture started to shine and suddenly slowly her body was pulled to thedoor "Wait!!!What was happening!!"(Seria) And the room becomes empty.....not even a trace a Seria was found there. Chapter 35:2 day before entering.. As I sew the pixie clothes,Hikari and Eliza come to me.with the pixie who already take a bath.....but she wore a rag. "Wait for a minute."(Ezax) 15 minutes later. I finished the clothes then as soon as I finished I Give it to Hikari . She understand my intentions immediately go for a while and return with the fairy who wear a gothic loli clothes. The black color suits her white skin and her white clothes very much. There was also hidden feature from that...well I would told her later. Anyway.. "Little pixie do you have name?"(Ezax) "Kagome.."(Pixie) "Kagome,you don''t need to worry about us. We won''t do anything to you..."(Ezax) I said it with gentle voice on Kagome,but she was just silent sit on hikari palms.. "....."(Kagome) Looks like ,her wound was deeper than I thought. How to made her feel safe? For now I would made some sweet.... "Wait here for a moment Hikari."(Ezax) "Yes."(Hikari) I use the kitchen and made some sweets cake,once I finished for everyone else..I return with the sweets with their eyes full of stars. but kagome still keep on her guard...Titania also appear from upstair.looks she smelled the sweet scent and when she saw kagome.. " A Pixie?"(Titania) Kagome who noticed then turn around and saw a fairy,her expression was surprised...after all unlike pixie,Fairy was never become object for auction or sort.. It would only appear if the person was a kind person or a nice person from the depth of his heart..The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement. "Titania,eat slowly okay? you don''t need to worry about the food when dissapear like last time."(Ezax) "Yes~~~"(Titania) Unlike her owner titania was a nice fairy,she didn''t do anything weird or anything tricky..as long I let her sleep with me. Well she said because I emit the warmness that no one she ever met So I don''t mind it. This should let her guard down for a bit...but looks like she was still afraid of me. See she was still feel afraid with her food. well I wouldeat some.. but instantly..My plates gone.....it was taken by Hikari.. "HIKARI!!!GIVE ME BACK MY CAKE!!!"(Ezax) "Ufu?"(Hikari) UFU MY ASS!!!GIVE ME BACK MY SWEET CAKE!!!!! "..in the end you were just a child.."(Soluna) "Sorry!!! I like sweet things after all!!"(Ezax) "What a child~~"(Hikari) "I don''t want to hear that from you!!"(Ezax) Narrator POV Kagome who watch this,can''t believe it..after all Human that she saw while she being sold around. She noticed how disgusting humanity,other race. Use politics to kill others.. stole from each other,Fight each other. as a rare pixie she was treated carefully,but she was only giving wear some rag..and saw with perverted eyes..but this guy was different. He give her a nice set of clothes...treat her like a person. She never met a person like this before. Maybe she should trust him? But..he was just a child. After all...he was fighting over sweet with The girl that named Hikari....ah they were already gone "GIVE ME BACK MY CAKE DAMMIT!!!"(Ezax) She heard his voice somewhere else..Looks like the girl were running with the cake.. "Sight,why can''t they eat it silently..another spoon Eliza."(Soluna) The pixie saw the swoord eat some cake..A talking sword?What''s more it can''t eat some cake..the fairyalready lay on table and was sleeping nicely. The girl with that called Eliza was eating with full smile,she even saw the floor blooming around her..This party It was so strange...just what was the leader thinking to made this kind of party? While the pixie was thinking this Ezax returned with some cake..the pixie who saw this was kinda interested with the cake..Ezax noticed this and cut some part for her.... "Don''t worry,it was just a food."(Ezax) He smiled as he said that,He really was a child. Well this was a good point from him. Well before she died of hunger she might as well eat the cake..She take a bite of the cake. !!!!!! The pixie can''t describe it with words..what she knows the Food was really delicious. She immediately begin it hastily..when she ate all of it ,she went embarrased and want to hide himself,Ezax and Eliza who saw this smiled and laughed a little. The atmosphere was good for a moment,until the last bite of the cake or more likely the sweetest part from the cake....because just before it arrived on Ezax mouth..It was taken and eaten by hikari. Ezax,was stopped for a moment.Once Hikari finished it,she said. "Yay!!I had an indirect kiss with Ezax."(Hikari) Ezax finally pissed off.. "SPIT IT OUT!!!SPIT IT OUT RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!"(Ezax) "no way~~~"(Hikari) "SPIT IT OUT PLEASE!!!!!THAT WAS MY FAVORITE PART!!!"(Ezax) Kagome who saw this only have one thinking..in the end he wasjust a child. still maybe that was the reason.....why everyone could smile this.. "GIVE ME BACK MY CAKE!!!"(Ezax) ...no..he was beyond child..The kagome don''t know should she trust him or not... While killy watch this,he just glare him with envy..what''s with this romcom? Was there any fairness in this world? He change his mind..At first he wanted to say,that he should postpone to enter the dungeon..after all he felt something would happen on the bottom of that dungeon and he was sure of it.. He don''t know why thought.. 2 day before entering the dungeon.... Chapter 36:Entering the ruin. The next day,we exit the town and go to the hunting ground..as Kagome didn''t trust me yet. She was still silent..keep her guards up on me. Still we need her power if we want to get out of the dungeon without scratch. Well before that. "Ezax,must we enter this dungeon this early?"(Hikari) "There was no other choice,after all we only had 1 month left if we want to go to the beastcontinent. Considering the town was very far..it would took at least 3 weeks from this town."(Ezax) "would we be fine?"(Eliza) I nod just in case. The next continent would be beast continent,It was the continent I know best after human continent after all. The ship that brings human to beast continent was rather rare. well Their relationship was kinda awkward especially it was just a years after a war.Many of them still held grudge... "Well,If I am alone,then it would be fine...but surely you girls would follow me regardless what I said right?"(Ezax) They nod,instead let them enter this dungeon recklessly ,I should party with them..well there was some golem at least it would be good training for them. Althought Golem in dungeon have slow speed,they had great defense especially magic. maybe a golem wouldn''t be a problem for Hikari,because she can aims at the gap. but Eliza can''t..thought Eliza could handle many opponent at once ,while Hikari can''t.. golem appears in group..this would be good training for them. "Kagome,could you hide in my pocket? after all it would be rought."(Ezax) Kagome who sit on my shoulder nod and go inside my poked,but her head still out.this would be fine for now. "Now let''s enter it!!"(Ezax) ====================================================================================================================== Narrator POV "Ugh...why I can''t get out from this place..."(Seria) It has been 2 days since she trapped here...the wall around here was so hard..not even her dragon magic can''t pierce the wall. She was lucky that she had 2 months supply and the room vast enough. That''s why she summon her dragon and lay on the back of her dragon. she was thinking what should she do? "Seria,instead of laying around,why don''t you examine the mural?"(Michel) This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience. "I can''t read it..it was another language I don''t know and the picture was grayed out.....how about you michel?"(Seria) "Nothing the only one I know,this was made by human. I noticed the smell of human,and it was around 19 years or 20 years old. But I don''t know whose smell is this."(Michel) "I see...wait if this ruin was made by human..then wasn''t this human continent?"(Seria) "There was a high-chance of it."(Michel) Seria eyes were full of star..then she said. "I can meet oni-san!!"(Seria) Michel sighed...when she would be adult? after all Ezax only treat her as precious sister,not as opposed gender. Well Even if she said that,she won''t listen..suddenly she heard something.. "...Seria silent for a moment."(Michel) "Why?"(Seria) "I heard someone voice..looks like they were above us.no far above us.."(Michel) ====================================================================================================================== Ezax''s POV "Fuah~~~"(Ezax) "Ezax,instead of drinking won''t you help us?"(Hikari) Hikari said that,as she roll to the right side of golem..while eliza hold them. "This would be a good training for you...."(Ezax) "Good training my ass,there were too man-fukya!!"(Hikari) Suddenly an arrow come fly and aimed at her head. but I burned it with magic. "Just focus on your survival first okay?"(Ezax) Looks like the rank S dangerous was based on humanity rank...well that''s why it wasn''t that strong..compared to beast continent..this were much easier. even the trap was only simple one...With this I can leasurely drink my cocoa...kagome sit on table ignoring her food and stare at me like she can''t believe it..while titania munch her food. Titania was more easy to handle... "Don''t worry they won''t die at this level."(Ezax) As soon as I say that,hikari fall on booby trap...and ..she was falling. well before she falls I already tied with her rope..so I I lift her up. "Thanks..."(Hikari) "Before saying thanks,see in front of there was a golem."(Ezax) Hikari immediately dodged to the right and pierced its core. 80 left.. "Hey Ezax!!What''s with this spartan training!!!even thought they were just golems they were still upper A rank at least.!!!They were still B bottom rank!!It was too much for them!"(Soluna) "Soluna our opponent was dragoon race who control dragons.Do you think dragon were weaker than golem in this ruin? Beside I didn''t have much time to act leisurely. My sister and parents life was on danger anyway. If they can do this then they would grow much stronger...but I won''t force something irresponsible to them."(Ezax) Soluna went silent for a moment..well even thought I said that I am quite enjoyed Hikari struggle scene....after all I have so many grudge again her and she was a masochist after all! "EAK!!!!!I am not a masochist!!"(Hikari) Lalalalala~~~~~~~~ "You sadist!!!"(Hikari) ~~~~~ thanks for the compliment~~~~. ====================================================================================================================== "Ho...indeed these were human continent,after all I heard human voices."(Michel) "Really michel?What a lucky day!!!Let''s go michel we must found our way to exit this place!!"(Seria) "No need.After all your oni-san was on the way here."(Michel) "REALLY!!!"(Seria) Seria eyes shine brightly with stars..what kind of luck is this?She begin to imagine romantic scene between him and his brother...after a moment michel said. "Seria behaved yourself.after all he had 2 friends with him."(Michel) In instant..Seria become serious.. "....Male or female?"(Seria) "Female.but they weren''t bad after all they strong enough to defeat A C rank golem by themselves.."(Michel) Suddenly Seria stand up and go down..then held michel heads while glare at her. ".......I don''t care about their strength..what was their relationship with my Oni-sama?"(Seria) Michel sweat like crazy...why her host was yandere?She was a dragon of love yet her host was yandere...what the fuc k with this fate?Just who the one give her this kind of fate?(Me the author.)Anyway,she must calm her down .by lying.. "Well..they were in love I guess?."(Michel) !!!!Just what she said?WHy she say the truth?!!!What''s wrong with her!!!..Then she noticed..that Seria put spell so the dragoncan''t lie. "I see!!!One sided?"(Seria) Michel nod as hard as she can.... "I see...I wouldn''t let them take Oni-sama first!!No Oni-sama from me JUST WAIT!!!ONI-sama!!!(Seria) WHile at Ezax sides..Ezax suddenly felt a cold on his spine "Why suddenly I shivered....?what''s more I feel incomparable danger than anything I had faced?just what was waiting me at basement?"(Ezax) Chapter 37:Human special dungeons part 1 "I am so tired..."(Hikari) "Sorry,Ezax..I can''t move any longer.."(Eliza) both of them lay on ground unmoved.. Looks both of them were already dead tired. Well they defeated 100 golems it was enough for their training I guess.I close my book,then take out some lunchbox for them.. "Now just rest easy after all you already killed the wholedungeon worth of golem... There won''t golem anymore for the rest of week. So you can take it easy."(Ezax) Thought they fall to the trap so often,that I kinda tired me out...well bit by bit they getting used to it. I take out some paint ball. Then with wind magic,I marked the trap. Once all of the trap marked..we can''t rest easy... "MEANIE!!!!You should do it before we fight!!!"(Hikari) "...then it would be to easy for you guys...beside..I like to see you suffer...after all I had a quite deep grudge to you hikari."(Ezax) "Then why Eliza get involved..."(Soluna) ".For eliza it was 100% pure training..beside I put some buff at you right?if not surely you can''t cut throught it because Eliza was still weak."(Ezax) "....I can''t refute that..after all my sharpness was depended on the user power."(Soluna) "..he..that''s why I saw some winds on Soluna.."(Eliza) Right..if not it would be a quite struggle. . "Meanie!!!Why you treat her nicely but not me.!!!(Hikari) "Because I want to see you struggle.... and if possible correct your head."(Ezax) "....Tsundere~~~~Tsundere~~~I know you want me to get stronger so I won''t die right?or show yourself by saving me in last moment."(Hikari) ........Really...There must be something wrong with her. How can she be positive after all that? I can''t believe it..as she read my mind she act so smug..The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. "Hehehe!!!You surprised with my deduction right?"(Hikari) ".....sorry,Ezax. Hikari since child she was already like this."(Eliza) ..I guess the idiocy runs in the family.....well I can''t hate that kind of idiocy after all I want it..to go living this world without any worries... "..did you envy me?Don''t worry as long am with you..life full of happiness would await us."(Hikari) ...yours words was kinda cool.but your way eating of the lunchbox and the words you said..was too much different..good for you don''t have any shame... "Anyway,quit chatting and took some rest. after all you would fight again tomorrow."(Ezax) "Wait ..you said we already killed the whole dungeon worth of golem!!"(Hikari) "There was many dungeon protector you know? Gargoyle. Dark knight...Golems were only basic defense....of course they were stronger and few in number."(Ezax) "Wait you mean the training didn''t end yet?Do you want to kill Eliza ?There-"(Soluna) "...Ezax.you are kidding right?"(Eliza) .....So rude..well I would answer them honestly...with smile I said. "Do I look kidding you?"(Ezax) "......................."(Hikari,Eliza,Soluna) Well It took near half a day..so I suggest they sleep until I woke them up. well Titania including kagome already sleep. 3 hours later. While they were sleeping,I took out some ingredients for making a basic health potion....but the potion created always turn blue instead red..piece of shit..I am still failed? This was harder than I thought..looks like I made a mistake in compount..let''s try it again.. 1 hours later.. "Red..it finally red..!!!"(Ezax) Finally,I can create a basic potion...ugh..it made my head hurts..it takes me a month to learn how to make basic health potions. Well for now I would made some for Eliza and Hikari,after all potions the potion that I created was for healing wound..If they are wounded..They can use it...well let''s try it by a bit...I cut my figner a bit using knife and them immediately use the potion.....ugh it felt disgusting...but the cut was healed. The potion turned to be sucess. "Ezax ,I never seen a guy like you.."(Soluna) "Ah,sorry if I wake you up."(Ezax) "Never mind me,but don''t you need to take a rest?after all you were the one who most tired right? you watch them with 100% focus..and always protect them if they were in danger. It should tire you out....but yet you still do an alchemy and creating potions."(Soluna) Soluna paused for a moment...then . "Forget it..you were stubborn guy after all."(Soluna) "?"(Ezax) Well,let''s tidy the alchemy tool...it would be no good if others wake up. "Hey,Ezax..this dungeon doesn''t you found it weird?"(Soluna) "..I know..after all for dungeon..there was too much light source..the wall always shine like morning outside.beside compared to others it was well preserved.."(Ezax) The wall must be made by special material..and the golem must be the one who preserved it..still the creator of this dugenon must be grand magician. No..it was possible for an X rank magician..but what for? Someone already cleared this dungeon but they found nothing....there was no treasure or anything..just a mural...there must be something hidden in this dungeon.. "....sigh.. even I live 1000 years old,there was many things I don''t know. anyway I would go back to sleep. Make sure you took some rest...after all you are still living being you know."(Soluna) "I know that.."(Ezax) ..Well let''s go to sleep. "Ezax.."(Bahamut) Bahamutsuddenly called me..it was rare for him to call me..was there something that he wants to tell me? "There was someone..below..and it was dragoon race...."(Bahamut) "What?are you sure about it?"(Ezax) "No..I am sure of it..after all I know the dragon very well..."(Bahamut) "Was she/he dragon god?"(Ezax) "Yes..but she was also..someone that betray me."(Bahamut) Narrator POV "....Bahamut..so It was you...."(Michel) "...Michel?what''s wrong?"(Seria) "....Seria be careful....Your brother had a dragon."(Michel) "Really!?thanks god."(Seria) ..........She couldn''t told her..after all the one who ended bahamut life..was her..and she betrayed him ...after all she didn''t had much choice.. Chapter 38:Human Special dungeon part 2. Gargoyle or moving stone.Gargoyle was like a little demon with wings and were made from stone instead of flesh. Unlike golem, gargoyle have more intelligent.but have slower produce rate.. To produce gargoyle you need deep knowledge about gargoyle..be it monotous movement,body,material. until now..no one can produce gargoyle...even if they able produce it..it would be much weaker and can''t be controlled. No one knows how to produce the perfect gargoyle. It was a lost knowledge after all... even the knowledge was important..because gargoyle were strong. they maybe have weaker strength than golem..but they attack in group which made them dangerous. Well looks like they didn''t need my help. As I though that suddenly Hikari went protest.. "Hey,Ezax..can you be a bit more lenient to us?"(Hikari) "Hmm what for?"(Ezax) I am think I am bit lenient to you guys..after all I didn''t only cast barrier for you guys..I also give you some buffs. Well Buff wasgood toward monster .but toward living being.it was useless.after all there was many way to cancel it...but the worst from buff was when the buff was cancelled instead time out,it would give you a disadvantage instead.. It grants debuff instead.. the debuff varied from the reverse of buff or some body paralyzed. What''s more buff only grant 20% bonus with -50% if the buff was cancelled.What;s more the buff was too complicated.. it tooks me about 1 years to master it...for normal people around 5 years? well with that kind of ridicilous condition and petty reward. No ones want to learn it. ".....Please...there was too much gargoyle that you bait!!!what''s more you still trigger the trap so many more gargoyle appeared!!"(Hikari) Hikari went protest as she dodged...oh well the trap at this floor only trigger to summon gargoyle. That''s why I purposely use the trap to summon more. The max would be twenty.but if there was 1 more,I would kill 1. you can think twenty as the safest line. actually they can handle 50 at once..but it would be too hard for me to keep watch on them and protect them at same time. I was still weak huh...oops Hikari life was in danger. I Strengthened the barrier which made the barrier repel the gargoyle. thanks good I have this ruby staff with me. it cost quite a lot to made...to be specific.the most expensive was the ruby thought... but it was worth it. after all it indeed buff my magic by 20%. Ah eliza was on danger.. Water arrow~~~ "Thanks a lot!!(Hikari) "Thank you Ezax!!"(Eliza) "Now now,go faster..at this rate you wouldn''t get sweets!!"(Ezax) "!!!!!"(Hikari and Eliza) When they heard they immediately went faster.. girls are so easy to predict. Well all girls like sweets more than anything. It was the same for me because I like sweets I learn how to made it. You can think it as hobby thought.....thought at first I made it to relieve my stress..never expect to use it as enchancer for their training...huhuhuhu..sweets and alcohol,they were more dangerous than poison~~~well for me? I didn''t like alcohol~ it was too much luxury...but the biggest problem was it didn''t suit my taste..thought it was good things...if these girl drunk it would be a disaster. "Uwe!!"(Hikari) The gargoyle with its claw try to shred Hikari apart from 4 different sides.. Hikari jumped then use battle arts. It was the Second interdimiate and knowing level. Beheading hornet. it was battle arts use gravity to deal a vertical piercing damage....it have very high offensive power..but lack accuracy. still Hikari able to pierce the gargoyle head easily as expected her accuracy was truly good,Eliza then took step back and help hikari finish the others three. with their position back on back. It won''t be easy for gargoyle.. just as I though that...I noticed..some living things...from upper floor. and they were heading here it was around 100people....from the metallic sound it was knight..ah. It was knight that attack my village. I already threatened them to return to their hometown..yet they dare to come here....what a daring one. for now they maybe able to kill bandits..but knights? Surely they will hesitate. Once they killed everything,I would go and kill the knights...only if they dare to come to the second floor.Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere. 30 minutes later. the knight was on the way here. they descend to the second floor...but all of the gargoyle at this room was already defeated.Maybe it was a bit early..but it would be better for them not to see this early. "Okay,break time."(Ezax) ".....hah..thanks god.."(Hikari) Hikari lost the power on her leg and fall on her knees. She was really tired.. "This training...it was good one.."(Eliza) Eliza said that,but she was out of breath....looks like their stamina can''t follow. Well I would increase it slowly..kagome and titania who was in my pocket sleeping finally wake up.. "Kagome and titania..please stay here with everyone for a moment okay.?"(Ezax) "Okay."(Titania) "As you wish."(Kagome) I took them out from the pocket..then.. "Don''t go anywhere..there was some pest needed to clean."(Ezax) They nod,Once I have their confirmation. I immediately wear the royal blade cloak and then the mask. looks like you guys really need a serious threat...after all if they targeting us..it would be a pain. Once I saw them..I stopped in front of them,saw me,they begin to discussing themselves...the captain recognize me..it was the idiot captain...I should kill them before If I know this will be happen...as I sighed..the captain point his sword on me. Looks like he was angry at me..well.. "Before we only have 50 ..now we have twice of that..what''s more we have 20 magicians with us!!today would be your death!!! There was also a grand magician with us!!!"(Captain) He pointed on noble looking guy....her magic power it was B rank at best..yet he was called grand magician..even the kingdom was an idiot..still it.was...pfft. "Wahahahahaha!!!!!!"(Ezax) They looking at me...like seeing an eccentric person..sorry,sorry I found it was funny. never think this guy not only scum but also trash..it made me laugh.. "Sorry,sorry....but I take it you guys as enemy?If you want to run and change your way life..maybe I would let you guys alive."(Ezax) "Are you an idiot? It was you who need to beg us..."(Captain) "Idiot....how about others? If you want to survive..then you better return to your kingdom..especially you grand magician-san. It wasn''t worth for you to risk your life for foolish man like him."(Ezax) "...sigh. don''t you know I am prince?how dare you speak to me like that commoner?"(Prince) Oh?never expect that....Looks like this was more problem than I thought..I would let him alive for time being and ''reform'' him somehow. "I guess no one wants to give up....just for money,promotion,and others thing..oh well I understand why you guys want that..but."(Ezax) I show my killing intent to them,they immediately took out their weapon and their magician begin to chant. "You guys made the wrong enemy."(Ezax) I would show you...how scary buff can be.. DualCast... I cast the first at them.. "Group area buff. 3rd level rapid leg!!!"(Ezax) It was level 6 buff that increase your speedand its debuff paralyze your legs for the whole duration.its duration was 10 minutes. Once they saw this,they laughed at me... "This guy?why he learn useless buff spell?what''s more he use it on us...what an idiot.!!!"(Prince) ...sorry,it was on purpose you idiot. WHile they were laughing I cast the second group spell. "Curse to the blessed!!!!"(Ezax) The spell it didn''t only cancel but also improved the debuff.well it was whole body paralyzed now... "Ugh..my.body...I am paralyzed ?"(Captain) ".....sorry guys..I had 7 elements in my body,unlike others..so you know..this would be your grave..."(Ezax) Tiamat. "Yes sir!!!"(Tiamat) Once I called tiamat..I pull out the bow..and then made 99 arrow of fire. Thought it was weaker than the arrow fire I made..because it was rather hard to made 99 arrow at once. Bythe way my maximum arrow creation was 200.Knowing how grave the situations they at..they begin to beg me..but it was too late. "Please spare us!!"(Captain) "I already spare you once....but it was you guys who seek death.."(Ezax) I fire the 99 arrow and it pierced all of their head and then burn the whole head. fuh now only prince left.. "Now then what should I do to you?"(Ezax) "I would handed you my rings..I would handed you everything !!!please just spare me!!"(Prince) "....hmm....then it would take everything from you."(Ezax) I immediately loot the prince,only left him with underwear..his spatial ring was Brank..a rather pricey treasure. There was also 4 of it.. Well I would give the other 2 to Hikari and Eliza I guess and keep the rest. after all I have 2 A rank Spatial ring and 1 time spatial ring. for the inside..there was nothing except gold and useless equipment. Well I would take it from the ring. it was still a good loot after all. "Now explain everything to me...why you enter this dungeon."(Ezax) "It was too investigate..the light pillar that appear here around 2 days ago."(Prince) ...Today sure was a good harvest.,.... Chapter 39:Human Special dungeon Final. For now I must extract as much information as I could from. But...why I didn''t notice it? maybe I was to pre-occupied making clothes for kagome. Ignore that for now. "What was so special about that light?This was another kingdom territory right?There was no reason to take that risk."(Ezax) Hearing that,he immediately answered as his life on the line. Good good~~~ you made my work easier. "I am sorry I didn''t know that much!!!I am just obeyed my father order!!!(Prince) .....Wait are you serious? "You know the consequence of lying right? "(Ezax) I draw my sword and touch his neck with the tip sword as proof that I wasn''t lying. Saw my reaction the prince immediately beg forgiveness while shivering like crazy. Was I that scary? "Nonono!!!!! A stupid man like me never dare to lie to you supreme master."(Prince) As expected you can hope anything from noble except their treasure and equipment. well even I torture him,I will get nothing. "Let me tell you something..if you told anyone about me...No matter what you do..I will found you and kill you!!!Understand?!!"(Ezax) "Yes!!!This lowly man understand!!"(Prince) "Now scram and never show you my face in front of my face again!!"(Ezax) "Yes yes!!"(Prince) Once the prince run far enough,I sighed and then I said... "You know eavesdropping wasn''t a nice hobby.."(Ezax) Hearing my words everyone who was hidding behind the wall come out.. "Hehehe sorry..."(Hikari) "Sorry,Ezax. We were just worried.."(Eliza) Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon. Sigh because Eliza were trully sorry,I would let her slide. But I Give hikari a chop on her head. This girl...when she would learn?as she rub her head. "Hey Ezax...how old you really?"(Soluna) "What''s with that question? Didn''t I am already answered you that I am 16 years old.?"(Ezax) "Forget I am asking anything."(Soluna) ??????After that we continued training until they defeated gargoyle. Nightime when everyone sleeping. As I reading a book about alchemy,Soluna asked me a question. "Ezax you able to detect others right?I don''t care how you did you do it. I just want to know."(Soluna) I close my book,then answered her. "Pretty much. "(Ezax) After all detecting presence were only skill that can be learned and sharpen by experience. before Soluna conciousness transferred to double swords..she must be at master level at least. or you could say S rank. The reason S rank must learn this was because starting A rank enemy begin able to hide themselves and would be fatal if they can''t detect it. That''s why This skill was a must for an S rank. Soluna hear this groan for a moment then. "Ezax,Please retreat at once."(Soluna) "....No."(Ezax) "Ezax please listen to me!!!!!I know you are strong...but the person below us...It was a monster!!!!!!"(Soluna) What Soluna said wasn''t wrong..but. "Soluna,I must do this...after all I was the only hint..to know what I am.."(Ezax) "...."(Soluna) Before Soluna stopped questioning me,there was a high chance she want to ask me..what I am I.. "After the battle with bone dragon..I am afraid of myself. I am asking myself..just what am I?"(Ezax) "Weren''t you half dragoon and half-human?"(Soluna) I shake my head. "At first I think so..but fafnir says. I wasn''t dragoon..nor human. I was the Eight race."(Ezax) "...Eight race...was that possible?"(Soluna) "I don''t know if it was true or not. The only way to know it..was to enter this dungeon... "(Ezax) Soluna sighed and then she said. "I also want to know that,well but promise something would you?"(Soluna) "Sure.."(Ezax) "If you can''t win. then you must escape!! Understand?"(Soluna) "okay."(Ezax) Even without she telling me that,I would do that. After all it wasn''t just my life anymore..there was a Hikari and Eliza with me...Being a party leader is hard as always. Next day. As we arrived third floor,we only saw a single hallway..but there was no enemy presence or anything..as we walked through the hallway Hikari relieved and said. "fuh..thanks god today there was no monster.."(Hikari) Ah right,because there was no monster..I can''t do spartan training for them. What a badluck...well enough of it..I must prepared myself. We keep walking for a while and fills with useless talking. neverthless it break our tense so it was a good thing. once we arrived at the end of hallway..there was nothing except wall..I try to knock it..and found there was an empty room pass this wall. but this wall..it wasn''t the wall that you can break by brute force...it was made of the strongest material Orichalcum. sigh..just who the one created this dungeon? "Ezax,can you break this wall?"(Eliza) "Nope.."(Ezax) "...Wah!!!Then we should search for a secret switch!!(Hikari) ".....there was no way that posssible if such a thing was possible then-"(Ezax) Suddenly a stone was pressed in by Hikari and the wall begin to open... "........"(Ezax) HOW THE HELL WAS THAT POSSIBLE!!!THis was 200 old years dungeon!!!yet no one able pass this wall.. This girl..did she have unlimited luck or something?as the wall opened slowly Hikari with smug looking face said.. "Hehehe!!!!!wasn''t I awesome!!"(Hikari) ...Both of Eliza and me,can say anything and pretend to ignore her. But once the door fully opened we saw a white dragon and a single girl on top of it. This white dragon I had seen it before..... "O---"(????girl) "O?"(Hikari) Hikari tilted her head as this girl who stand on dragon back..shivering then suddenly..she get down and then run toward me.. "ONI-SAMA!!!!"(Strange girl) "Eh?"(Ezax) She then hug me.....wait a minute..before she called me Oni-sama...then... "...Don''t tell me..you are.."(Ezax) "Right!!It''s me Seria!!"(Seria) "EH!!!!"(Hikari,Eliza and Ezax) All of let out a surprise..after all wasn''t she supposed to be at dragoon continent!! Chapter 40:A nice chat.. First I must get a grip.as my brain didn''t understand what was happening same as everyone else. .. "First,were you really seria?as long you didn''t show the proof ,I can''t think you as my sister."(Ezax) Hear that,Seria begin to pout... "Oni-sama,can you see ? I am your real sister!!"(Seria) ....cause I don''t believe you were here that''s why I ask you......but her tone. It was seria for sure..well it was good thing Eliza and Hikari keep silent. "."...!!!Oni-sama,oni-sama would you believe me if I told you about ''that''?"(Seria) that?what''s that? As I wondering ''that'' ,She slowly took out a necklace that had 2 rings in it..this.. "Oni-sama ,Oni-sama !!You remember this ring right!!The ring you gave me before you left me10 years ago!!!"(Seria) "Seria...so it was really you..."(Ezax) But..why she was here..just how she got here? I mean wasn''t she supposed to be in dragoon continent?Why no one with her?..for what she reason coming here? There was too many question regarding about that. As I wonder that,the white dragon move and.. "I know you have many question regarding us. But we also have a lot of question to ask you.."(WHite dragon) If she was seria,then this dragon must Michel. "Youright,everyone let''s stay here for 1 day."(Ezax) 3 hours later. As michel turn into chibi and sit beside Seria like a dog,she explained everything. She told me that after we separated Seria train hard,she even become the youngest general but also the coldest general. Well even I ask why?Seria said because she wasn''t interested in others man except man. There also the reason they keep them alive.. Seria was a pure dragoon at the same time also the princess. That means our mom must be a queen...explain a lot why I didn''t killed sooner . The reason she was here more likely because this place can teleport a person from the ancient ruin of dragoon continent to human continent...it was established since the era of Fafnir life as fafnir says so...he never expect to meet my little sister thought...but michel explanation was more clear than Seria explanation...even michel was at lost why she was like this...well she said even though Seria act so spoiled like little kid around me around others she act as cold and merciless girl toward others man..she only have few friend and was all girl because her nobility and position...A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. But you said spoiled like little kid...then why she still cling on me? it makes my hard to sit you know?Hikari who saw this was pissed off..while eliza mutters they were only brother and sister only brother and sister nonstop..thanks god eliza understand that much. Titania sit on Hikari head while kagome sit at my shoulder and didn''t say anything since beginning. "Oni-sama!!now my story finished please Tell meabout your story!!"(Seria) "Ah,of course.."(Ezax) Then I begin to tell her about my training in here,meeting with hikari and Eliza and other things. Of course it was excluding our kiss..As Seria heard that,she grip my shoulder that even made me feel pain and with cold smile she said. "Oni-sama...please don''t hide anything."(Seria) as she show her killing intent,I was afraid like a frog!! Hii!!!!!!!!!!!! then the dragon begin give their reaction.. "UOH!!!was she really a human?"(Tiamat) No she was a dragoon.. "Ugh!what a killing intent!"(Brionac) Yeah,yeah...but why your voice was so small?it was like you were afraid of her.. "RUN RUN RUN!!! MASTER RUN!!!DANGER LEVEL MAX!!!"(Typhoon) Sorry,but it was impossible..because she grip me tightly... "Ara ara ara ara~~master you mustn''t hide anything from her. It was a taboo to lie for a girl."(Leviathan) I think I will be killed if I told her the truth thought... "MASTER!!!"(Kulshedra) Sorry,kulshedra to make you this scared.. "...hey hey..are you kidding me? was she the last boss?"(Fafnir) Maybe?I don''t know why..the last boss was her instead.. "..hmm,all of you were a fool."(Bahamut) Don''t ack cocky while shivering bastard!!! As she was on fire..hikari intermediate between us. "Stop it..you get on my nerve with oni-sama,oni-sama yours..."(Hikari) Hikari wasn''t joking,she was serious....it was rare for her to be like this. with coldness Seria answer her. "Don''t interfree with our relationship ''outsider''."(Seria) "heh. act so cocky just because you were his sister.can you see you was disturbing him?even I am an ''outsider'' know this."(Hikari) It sure rare..for hikari to be so defense me...usually she was the one who annoys me the most...as the argument between them heatedmichel say.. "...Ezax,You really have good eye for people as Seria said."(Michel) "...ha..she just shamelessy follow me,so I have no choice to protect her..."(Ezax) "...hahaha...then you better stop them..if not they probably get in fight you know!!!"(Michel) as she said that,I saw they already pullet out their weapon...oh my god!!!!just how short was their fuse? It was too fast!! "Both of you stop!!"(Ezax) 1 hours later. "geez,can you girls be more peaceful?Like Eliza for example.."(Ezax) She even help me intermediate...if not the battle would be more dragged on...... "....sorry."(Seria and Hikari) as we having lunch right now,they put on serious reflect their attitude on serious reflect. You girls should think why were here and having chat ...wait..why we we here? AH!!!I desert my lunch then analyze surrounding..but all of the mural picture was so unclear..there was also many graze...damn it.there was also many mural that was destroyeed.. "What''s wrong ezax?"(Hikari) "Hikari,the reason I coming here..it was to know my true identify..but..all of the hint..it was destroyed."(Ezax) !!!!!as everyone surprised...fafnir appear beside me. "What on earth?just who the one? who was the one able to scratch orichalcum?There was no way"(Fafnir) "There was 1 person..only 1 person that able to do this.."(Michel) "What?who?"(Ezax) ".....Ezax,you know him too..after all we were related to him."(Seria) "What do you mean?"(Ezax) "Our father..."(Seria) Dad?! Chapter 41:Future plan. As I was shocked and surprised at the same time..Seria continue to tell me.. "Oni-sama...I can''t tell you why he did this...but Oni-sama,Please forget about dad and mom.."(Seria) "Seria why you say that!!!They were-"(Ezax) "Theyweren''t our parent anymore!!"(Seria) "Seria!!!"(Ezax) "Oni-sama!!!They were the one who ordered you to be tortured...the one who separate us!!!"(Seria) The reason I tortured...it was because them...as I lost in word...Seria continue. "They didn''t care you at all!!!The reason you was keep alive was to wager..wager a war again other race!!"(Seria) "What do you mean little sis?"(Hikari) Little sis? Are you damn serious? she was not your sister goddamit!!!!!don''t treat us like we were married or sort!! Hikari...you were too shameless....hearing that Seria frown for a moment then pretend to ignore her Seria said. "Shameless woman,I told you I was a princess right? If I am princess,then what is Ezax?"(Seria) "Prince obviously...AH!!!"(Hikari) "Right...if Ezax was here....then they could easily said their prince was kidnapped and wager a war with other race right?"(Seria) Then Eliza raise her hands and begin to ask question.. "Seria-chan..why they want to do war this much?why dragoon race want to do that?"(Eliza) Even I know its reason...there was only 1 answer.. "For the extinction race other than dragoon...."(Ezax) "!!!!!!!!!"(Eliza and Hikari) WHile both of them was shocked and surprised...Seria nodded as I was right..even fafnir and Michel was silent the whole talks. Then Hikari say.. If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. "Are they really sure can do that?Extenction..it wasn''t that easy!!!Not to mention if the 4 race army was combined..it should be easily overhelmed the dragoon race."(Hikari) "Hikari unlike the 4 race..dragoon never do any war with other races..their population moreso the same as the other 4..."(Ezax) "Not to mention..they already started made the preparation to wage the war....even as we speak."(Seria) We fall into silent again...as we face a wall right now..I make a suggestion for them.. "Anyway forget about for time being...let''s take a rest and then go to surface.."(Ezax) "Okay!!!"(Everyone else) At midnight.. While everyone was sleeping. I was thinking...what I should do?If what Seria said was true..thenthere was no need for me to go too dragoon continent. After all the reason why I want to go there was only to save my family...but they don''t need it. after all I was only tool to them...but...what I must do now? I lost my only objective....as I lean on the wall suddenly Hikari comeover... "Can''t sleep?"(Hikari) "Pretty much. after all I lost my only objective...."(Ezax) Maybe because of it,I felt so empty inside.It was like losing important part of you. To be honest..I don''t know what to do anymore...Reading my mind,Hikari only said.. "Ezax,why you want to get stronger?why you want money?"(Hikari) "To protect my family.."(Ezax) As I answer honestly..Hikari smiled warmly at me. "See?You already have it..."(Hikari) "...........eh?"(Ezax) As I blatantly don''t understand what she means..she only said. "To protect others..it was also an objective. never forget that Ezax.."(Hikari) As she said that she go back to sleep. But her words..indeed allows me to move on.. "Thank you Hikari.."(Ezax) As I said my thanks to her..I also go to sleep. tomorrow..we will return to the city...better take some good rest... In the morning While everyone were still sleeping,I go to michel. I want to ask more information about dragoon race..Unlike Seria who didn''t care about dragoon race..michel pretty much know this was important so just in case she study it.. I ask everything..if there was only otherkingdom..nobles or anything sort. But michel replied that there was only 1 kingdom and the kingdom was governed by 1 king. No prime minister or anything. The whole kingdom life and death situation was depending on the king. Beside the reason there was no rebellion until now was because the king never do anything iresponsible. But even thought it was look perfect on paper..there was indeed small scale rebellion..but it was never big one..Half of it because all of the civilian who do rebellion was not a noble or a weak dragoon. Before it become problem...the rebel seed was already cut and burned. Including the family..it was rather cruel to be honest But it was indeed effective way.. "Michel.do you think it is possible to gain some people as ally?no..To make them not to participate in the war?"(Ezax) Michel shake her head,then said.. "It was impossible. I don''t know why..but dragoon race hold prejudice again other race..but what scary from it..It was like it was natural for dragoon race to hate others race. Near everyone was like that."(Michel) Take note to that,I guess it will be impossible to cut their power.Still to think it was worse than prejudice human to beastmen and vice versa...it was really scary...now what should we do? I doubt we can even defeat half of the force as the condition right now..While I was thinking what I should do michel asked me.. "Ezax,Why you ask this suddenly?"(Michel) "Hmm?even if you ask me..I just want to protect my family .."(Ezax) Thought I said family..it means my little sister thought. "I see ,I see. Ezax..Honestly I think there was other way right? Won''t it be fine just to let dragoon race win the war?You and Seria can still survive right?"(Michel) "Maybe ,you were right...but michel we didn''t know for sure what will happen in the future. What if they kill us?"(Ezax) "Indeed,for this accident. It can be counted as deserting the race...not to mention you weren''t a pure dragoon race."(Michel) "Yep,even if we survived...a life with other no choice except run...it won''t make her happy...that''s why it was better to win the war and then live happily after that right?"(Ezax) "Ezax,but for you to be this decisive..you were really strong ."(Michel) "Maybe not..after all I lost myself yesterday..It was quite impact to my mind..if not for Hikari helps that clear my mind..maybe I wouldn''t recover this fast."(Ezax) "A Honest man..Indeed now I know why seria said other man was a shit.."(Michel) Wow,she didn''t pull punch when said that..still Seria turned be a man hater was rather surprised me...her life must be unpleasant one... "Anyway,thanks for yourinformation,I get the gist of it. For now ,We should seek alliance with 3 other race."(Ezax) "There was no other choice after all. but considered that..what will be the first race you seek?"(Michel) "Beastmen,of course."(Ezax) After all they were the race who hold the sense of comradery the highest...not to mention...I know the king very well..thought he was a bit...well you can say..he was overprotective. Chapter 42:First objective.. "Michel sure convenient..to think it can transform into a talking earring."(Ezax) "Well,It was because I worried if I left to seria-chan only listen half heartedly.,that''s why I turn myself into earring. Thought in the end it was unnecessary."(Michel) Once Seria woke up ,michel turned into earring which make me and the rest ask some question regarding her. Well but let me remind seria just in case. "Seria,I will say it once again..you are not allowed to use michel unless your life in danger. Understood?"(Ezax) "I understood Oni-sama.after all a dragoon wasn''t supposed to be here wasn''t it?"(Seria) Looks like seria understood what I mean. After all dragoon racewasn''t supposed to be here..not to mention we will fight them into future.. I don''t want any incident happened because our carelessness. Now 1 matter finished.... "By the way,Seria what kind of weapon did you use?"(Ezax) "Me?"(Seria) "I think it must be scythe..because it fits her role so much as a reaper.."(Hikari) ...Please don''t..I don''t want my little sister become heartless shinigami.... "Maybe sword and shield?after all general use that right?"(Eliza) You read stroy too much Eliza,maybe some of them indeed was like that..but not all of them. After all general was depending on the weapon they best with...it was only in story every general use sword and shield. as Seria say ck ck ck ck..suddenly she said with a word.. "It was a katana!!"(Seria) Everyone lose their interest..Still this was nice thought..with this we can exchange pointer and become stronger. "A katana huh..wait for a moment."(Ezax) Hmm...if I wasn''t wrong there was a katana previously that I didn''t use it..ah found it. As I take out a katana with crimson sheathe I passed it to her. "Oni-sama this is a magic katana wasn''t it?"(Seria) "Yep,it was S rank grade weapon in ranking of beast continent. Infernal blaze."(Ezax) It was given by the king ,but because Bahamut said I won''t suit my style so I just put in spatial ring.. Well at least it had some use. "By the way what was your rank?"(Ezax) "B rank lower."(Seria) "PFfft!!You act so mighty when you fight me..yet you only the same as strong as me!!!"(Hikari) Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. You mustn''t laught at others..as I grap at Hikari''s head and then strenghtened my grip, as she started to ow ow ow.really..can you guys be more peaceful. I mean I saw killing intent in seria eyes...they were like a kid that fighting over thing..in this case me..really..it was hard for a self-proclaimed girlfriend and sister get along. As I sighed Seria regain her cool and then said.. "That was me before fuse with michel thought."(Seria) "I see...good job seria to be this strong.."(Ezax) If she fuse with her dragon..it should be around A rank I guess...considered she can control it well it can be higher than that. It makes her the second strongest in this party. Consider that..Hikari maybe the weakest in the party...As I stare at her ,she act so smug...please know you are the waekest... "Oni-sama,regarding about this girl,how strong is she?"(Seria) "B rank lower."(Ezax) "...So weak.."(Seria) I agree with that...she also doesn''t have any special ability..she was so average...except her chest...it was too lacking. Reading what is on my mind,Hikari become pissed off and then said. "Hmm!!!Ezax!!even thought I am so weak!!Remember I make you awaken!!"(Hikari) "awaken?"(Seria) !!!!GODDAMIT!!!!!I hastily go behind her and then cover her mouth.. "Seria..just forgot what was this girl is saying..."(Ezax) "..Oni-sama~~~Please explain it..in 20 words or less.."(Seria) Seria already draw her katana and put it just before the edge slice my neck.....goddamit. if I am not wrong the katana was made with special ore that was reheatable by magic power. Shit at this rate..I will be fried chicken. Suddenly Hikari takes out some notes and then show it to her...just what she is write?.as I can''t see from here. So I released her and then read the notes.. "A prince awaken his dragonic power by kissing the princess and the dragon was the one who decided it." It was indeed less than twenty words. but Seria was angry at me,but then smiled.. "Oni-sama,next time if you want to get stronger. don''t kiss kind of hag!!!!!"(Seria) That was fafnir fault not mine..still "Seria,you are not angry?"(Ezax) "A bit..but it was just a kiss. So it doesn''t matter that much."(Seria) Fuh..thans god Seria had a big heart. "Well anyways..Oni-sama ,now what will we do?"(Seria) "Ah right.For now I already decided I will fight..for my own future."(Ezax) "I see,then I will help you as I was your girl- ehm,sister."(Seria) Seria cough a little ,but girl?girl what?Well who cares..I look at Eliza. "I am not knight anymore..so let me follow you Ezax.."(Eliza) I see,thanks for your help. Then I look Hikari.. "It is main heroine job to follow where main protagonist will go!!"(Hikari) "Thanks everyone..now let''s us see the map first.."(Ezax) I spread the map and showed them the 4 continent that has been found and had its own emblem as it territory.. "As right now,we were at Human continent and this is beast continent,elf continent and for mermaid and dragon..it was still a mystery."(Ezax) I point in order to made them understand this..for now I think human continent will be the hardest while beast continent will be the easiest. "For now let''s aim the Alliance with beastmen first.."(Ezax) "Oni-sama,so you did well-planned. Not to mention they owe you for the war. right?"(Seria) "Yep.."(Ezax) "But Ezax are you sure they will agree?Even if a king agree,there will be a king that didn''t agree right?"(Hikari) "No,unlike human ,beast only had 1 kingdom and 1 king."(Ezax) "Eh?Ezax didn''t they afraid of tyranny?"(Eliza) "Even thought we called it kingdom,the king didn''t have any authority. It was more like the king was choosing by ritual and unlike humanity, beastment didn''t divide people by class like noble and common. Beside if the king was indeed a tyrant...then the people will choose a new king and ininiated a rebel not to mention it was rare thought..because the king was choose by vote system."(Ezax) "A vote system?"(Hikari) Everyone looks me in wonder..well if I not seen with my own eyes,I will never believe this kind of thing exist thought. "A vote system. it was kind of certain choice...each people will vote for 1 person from the list and the candidate with the highest vote will win. Of course the candidate can do anything to made people support them ,but violence,bribing won''t be allowed. IF the candidate was found to do that then the candidate would be executed..not to mention it says the security was really tight..and unlike humanity..beastment valued their family bond more than anything else..that''s why near no people do such a thing. Also the people will listen to the king if it was really concerned with their future.."(Ezax) As they understood it,I continued explanation. "Well because of that..if we can grab the king''s help then it would be the same as we gain help every beastment. That''s why I think we should aim at the beast continent first..not to mention I already the met king more than twice."(Ezax) Thought he was rather annoying,but he was a good king to be honest.. "Still can they work together with Human?we have antagonistic relationship right?"(Hikari) "Yeah I know,not to mention Alliance with human will be hardest.."(Ezax) Because human continent divided into many kingdoms and each of them have different conviction..not to mention their relationship with other races...ugh if only I could destroy nobility system it would made things easier for us. "Oni-sama,for now let''s focus on alliance with the beastment first."(Seria) ''Right...Everyone our first objective will be alliance with first continent..Let''s go!!"(Ezax) "Yeah!!"(Everyone) Narrator POV While everyone tidy up their things,michel whisper seria . "......Seria,why you tell him you are sister instead of girlfriend."(Michel) "To approach Oni-sama of course..after all oni-sama only treat me as little sister..if he knows I aimed at him..won''t he made a distance to me?"(Seria) "Ah...but are you sure?What if you end at sister zone?"(Michel) ''hehe..don''t worry...I will make sure he fall in love me..after all I already planned this since I was 7 years old!!"(Seria) Hearing that michel only mutters 1 words.. "Yandere is sure different....."(Michel) Chapter 43:Blood castle prologue.. "..........."(Ezax) As Now I woke up,All of the girl had entered my tent...and was sleeping calmly. Hikari ...Eliza...how many times I need to told you..until all of you stop? while I was wondering,how should I punish them so they won''t do this again?As I thought that my sheeet begin moving...and "Oni-sama,it is rare for you to woke up early.."(Seria) Seria appeared...with only lingerie... "Oni-sama,can I sleep more?I lack of sleep because I am to nervous when I sleep with you last night~~"(Seria) "LIKE HELL!!!NOW ALL OF YOU GET OUT FROM MY TENT!!"(Ezax) :punch: 1hours later. "Uh,uh..why you hit me Oni-sama?"(Seria) "Ask yourself.."(Ezax) I punish them in order..because this is Seria first offense,I only give her a light karate chop. sight....what happen to my adorable little sister who always follow me around when I was child?While I made their breakfast,Seria then said without any feeling of guilt.. "Wasn''t it normal for us to sleep together?We are brother and sister right?"(Seria) "Yes we are..but we aren''t not a child anymore.."(Ezax) I said that,as I cut some of carrot and meat..... "Oni-sama..didn''t you accept me my proposal when we was a child."(Seria)The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings. Hear that suddenly I slip and cut the cutting board.....oh damn. But first how should I made seria give up on that?She was a bit hard headed.. "Seria we are brother and sister okay?There was no-"(Ezax) "But we aren''t blood related..so its fine."(Seria) Ugh..How did she know?Well It wasn''t that important... "Still I only think you as a little sister not as -"(Ezax) ".....Oni-sama,Oni-sama..you know I hold your secret right?"(Seria) "...Seria!!!You are so cheap!!!"(Ezax) For everyone who don''t know my secret...it was rather simple actually...When I was child I was fall in love with a girl and wrote love letter..but the girl already gone before I know..and the possesion of love letter was in Seria...damn it...I don''t know how she get it. But it wasn''t funny.. "Oni-sama,I was your girlfriend and your sister okay?"(Seria) .......What''s with that absurd condition!!!!!!Shit...shit...Why I must write love letter..I WAS A PIECE OF SHIT A FAILURE!!! "Fine,I accept it!!!!Handed me over the love letter."(Ezax) ".....hmm..nope..I will give the love letter as wedding present."(Seria) You evil sister!!!T_T..on second thought..you were not adorable at all... "What''s with love letter?"(Hikari) "....You !!how do you escape from my punishment?"(Ezax) I am sure I tied you with a rope so tighly so that you can''t escape.. "hmm,hm !!!It was thanks to titania!!!My fairy was the best after all!!"(Hikari) You act so smug,yet the one who do the most of work was titania..please..don''t you feel ashamed.....wait where was titania?as soon I thought that,Hikari also noticed titania wasn''t here..Then slowly kagome appeared with tied titania behind her. She give tied titania too me and then sit on my shoulder...good work kagome,I take out some sweet from my pocket and then hand it over to her...nice nice..you are the only normal female around here.. "Ezax...why she rarely ever talks?Wasn''t pixie supposed to be more talking than a fairy?"(Seria) "Who knows,if she doesn''t want to talk..then I won''t force her.."(Ezax) Even after all this,she didn''t talk. I don''t know she was afraid or she was silent like this. Well I can only let time handle it.... "Enough of talking,Hikari please untie Eliza."(Ezax) "Okey~~~"(Hikari) "Continue our journey?"(Eliza) I nod...near here there should be town..let''s rest there for a while...after all the room at inn can be locked. while I thought that Seria reading my mind said.. "Don''t lock the door if you don''t want to pay the repair of window.."(Seria) Scary!!!!God !!What did you do to make my adorable sister become like this!!!!!!!Give me back the child seria!!! 2 hours later... We arrived at the townof Selena...let''s take rest for a while at the inn and then continue the journey to the port...that''s what I think at first..but this place...There was no even sign of living thing...this is a weird.. "A ghost town?"(Eliza) "I don''t think Eliza...there was a footprints and it was just recently.."(Hikari) "I agree with Hikari.....still this silentness. It was abnormal."(Ezax) Seria also nod,as we keep walking for a while...we found nothing. What was happening in this queendom? "How about we spread?wasn''t that better that way?"(Hikari) "Nope...it was better for us to stay together.."(Ezax) I feel ominious feeling since I enter this town...what''s with this?just what was happening in this town.. "Oni-sama..looks like we got guest ."(Seria) As I though that suddenly killing intent rapidly approach us. This is a mutant!!! "Everyone prepare to fight!!!"(Ezax) Everyone draw their weapon.this will be dangerous....but as it approach,I noticed..this mutant wasn''t animal..it was human!!!!!just what was happening in this town!!!! Chapter 44:Blood castle Part 1: A mutant form was like a centaur one.But had 6 human leg,The body was made of human organs ,hands made of bone and was a and wings made from hair,heads,its head was made of human head...This thing.just who the hell made it ?As I thought that the mutant lift its arm and aimed at us which made all of us dodge it.. It made a huge crater at the ground...what a power..as we dispersed into 4 direction..Seria begin to say whose katana are already drawn said.. "We won''t get away unscathed if we hit by that..."(Seria) "But it was lacking the speed not to mention the moves were sluggish."(Eliza) "Regardless of that,let''s test if we can kill this or not.."(Hikari) Good question,there was 2 type of mutant..one that had ridiculous defense..or one that had ridiculous regeneration,Well if we don''t try we won''t know...Katana ,Intermediate understand level...Shadow Cliff. I move to in front of instantly and then cut her in two with my katana.....once I do that,I step back while sheathe my katana back into its scabbard. Looks like the defense wasn''t that high..then I guest..it must the regeneration type.. 1 minutes,2 minutes..3 minutes. But nothing happened..So I ask Hikari to do some purification on the spot..... "What''s a boring enemy.."(Hikari) I don''t want to hear that from someone who didn''t do anything...still to one shot it...wasn''t the enemy really weak?But then I noticed...when I split into two....was there any blood?IF you think about blood...I can smell blood from the castle....this is..I guess this area was dangerous.. "Ezax,What do you think we should do now?"(Eliza) "Let''s escape from this place.."(Ezax) THere was no need to say...after all this area was dangerous. But they look me in wonder.. Then Seria ask me with monotone face.. "Oni-sama...don''t tell me you are..."(Seria) No of course not... "Still afraid of ghost.."(Seria) "I SAID NO!!!"(Ezax) Why the girls look me in pity!!!!!!!!! "I wasn''t afraid of ghost or anything!!!It just this area was too dangerous for us!!!!!!"(Ezax) "....Hoo...Really?"(Everyone else including the dragon!!) If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. WHy can''t they believe me!!!!!!And why you dragons also said!!It was for our safety!!!! "Ezax,the usual you won''t let this happen after all you weren''t heartless."(Hikari) "You always help others because if they truly need you.."(Eliza) "Not to mention,if you can get something from it not to mention a lot of money or treasure ..you will do it!"(Seria) I am not remember being that kind of person... "Whatever ,Let''s get out of here fast.."(Ezax) I don''t like this situation.it wasn''t like I afraid of it or anything...it just a mutant...it wasn''t a ghost or anything..well if ghost appear we can purified it...because there was a light priestess here....While I thinking that,they stare at me with pity..I Don''t need your pity hey!!!Please for godsake!!Respect your party leader!!!While I thought that Seria tap my shoulder? "Oni-sama,which more you afraid...letter or ghost?"(Seria) ......I never think ,I can win again my sister who know my dark secret....Hikari and Eliza who head this confused?they not need to know.. "Okay,everyone let''s go.We will investigate the castle which is most suspicious.."(Ezax) Along the way,we was attackbed by horde of the mutant,but we will able to handle it...once we arrived in castle,We immediately break the entrance door...and there is 2 way...one upstair..one downstair.. "What should we do?Should we separate or investigate one by one??"(Ezax) "...I think we should investigate one by one.."(Hikari) "Why?wasn''t it faster to go separate?"beside the mutant wasn''t that strong and you guys can beat it."(Ezax) Thought surely It was disgusting.....but Hikari only smile teasingnly.. "Didn''t you afraid of ghost?Not to mention this situation was eerie..it will be a normal if a ghost or anything appeared.."(Hikari) "Ha!!I don''t believe such a thing!!"(Ezax) There was no way ghost exist,there was no way ghost exist,there was no way ghost exist.....there is no way a monster that can''t be defeated by magic and sword can be exist!!! "...Well Oni-sama was fine with it..then me,Eliza,and Hikari will go downstair..while Ezax go upstair...."(Seria) "Hey,hey hey!!!What''s with that composisition!!"(Ezax) "That decided ...everyone let''s go!!"(Hikari) ....Hey.hey please don''t leave alone !!! I beg you!!!!! at least left hikari here!!!THought no one heard me,when I said that.... As I thought I look at the way to the the core of castle(Upstair)...There was hihihihi sound from it...If there was a ghost coming from it..I will destroy this whole castle!!!! "Hihihihi!!!"(A child laught) EAK!!!!!GODDAMIT LET"S FINISH THIS AND GET OUT OF THIS PLACE!!! "Oni-san let''s play!!"(A child voice) NONONONONNONONO!!!!!!!! I DIDN"T HEAR ANYTHING ,I Didn''t hear anything...suddenly someone tucked my shirt...,I saw a child ghost..with no head.. "GYAAA!!!"(Ezax) ====================================================================================================================== Narrator POV "GYAA!!!"(Ezax) At the same as Ezax cry.. "As expected,the upperstair level had ghost in it.."(Seria) "Seria,please don''t tease your brother too much..."(Michel) "Kyahahaha,I think it was fun to tease my future husband..after all he often tease me when he was a child."(Seria) Seria held grudge after all.. When he was a chidl,he tease her too much...thought they were right now,Ezax still tease her often..that''s why if she sees a chance to take revenge why not do that?Beside it is 100% safe..after all Ezax able to do a purifaction magic just in case he fight ghost... "Hee....Seria-chan was a quite dare devil eh?"(Hikari) "don''t call me seria chan ,you shameless girl."(Seria) "So cold toward you future sister..."(Hikari) WHile they were chatting like that,Eliza asked them as she was concerned about the Ezax who was shouting nonstop above... "Umm..don''t we need to help him or something?looks like he truly afraid of ghost.."(Eliza) "Don''t worry,don''t worry Oni-sama will be fine...beside don''t you feel want to play to Oni-sama a little?Not to mention......eavessdropping are bad hobby you know?"(Seria) Seria suddenly changed her attitude...as she said,they entered battle stance..as they do that,a Dullahan with white armor was surrounding them... "Undead...this thing it was undead.."(Hikari) "What''s with this town ?A weird monster?Ghost?Now Dullahan?"(Seria) "Everyone..I think,they won''t let us talk any longer...after all they already unsheathe their sword you know?"(Eliza) "Let''s destroy them.."(Seria) Simple and easy way.. ===================================================================================================================== Ezax POV Wah!!!WHY YOU ARE STILL CHASING ME!!!When I take peek behind me..the crowd of ghost child behind me,grow more and more.!!!!FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!!WHAT KIND HELL OF THIS!!!As I thought that my leg slip.....eh?as I fall to the ground ,I draw my sword awawawawa!!as I thought that...the child gone... fuh..thanks god...then they come back with knife in their hands...OH MY GOD!!!! "THIS!!IS!!!HELL!!!"(Ezax) and I begin to run once again.. Chapter 45:Blood castle part 2 Narrator POV "Fuh,this rather annoying.."(Seria) Seria said that as she kicked broken armor on the ground. While Elisa put her double blades on her back once again. Soluna who was examining Seria since beginning surprised... "So this is dragoon power...it was similar how Eliza berserk ability..but it was more balanced."(Soluna) When She enter dragoon for her strengt,soeed..everything increased. But unlike Eliza who is more focused on power..Seria was more balanced. "Thought I don''t want to use it so often. After all this consume quite huge a magic."(Seria) Seria answered with honesty. After chatting with them she know they were all good girl. But they were not just good girl...they can protect themselves though Seria was sure Her brother didn''t want to involved them. Well it is failed because they were too persistent...thought it also made them strong because of that. Still what piqued her interest the most..was Hikari. She didn''t have anything special her rapier skill were average but it still far from her ability...her magic also used so rashly. Yet even thought she was like that she didn''t even have scratch on her and..she wasn''t out of breath too. This dullahan is B rank in term of human rank. Not to mention there was many of them. If not for her usual behaviour...seria would already catch her and give her threat. Something was really fishy..Her oni-sama will never lied to her...but then her strength...it was not normal..or... Hikari already lost interest in durahan..and approach seria. "Hey hey!!tell me more about ezax when she was in child.."(Hikari) Or she was only natural airhead...Well looks like she won''t do anything to his oni-sama so seria won''t care about it.even thought she will be a traitor she won''t be that strong. she hoped....then as she want to explain..she heard something. "Quiet..there was something near here.."(Seria) Hikari become serious she also try to listen..but she didn''t heard anything. Eliza also didn''t hear anything...Then once seria located where the sound coming from she begin to run which made everyone followed her as they go down with the stairs...they reached the deepest part. Once they arrived the scene made every girls throw up..this is..too horifying.But this time..it was soluna who was angry. She can''t even hold her rage... This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. ".....this is!!!!!!JUST WHO THE ONE CAN BE THIS CRUEL!!!!!!"(Soluna) What they see..it was one of cruelty...of human..It was seen..a child with his brain taken out ,eye was out..or even their stomach ripped apart and everything inside was pulled from inside...a burned skin. What''s more..this only happened to a child below 10 years old..and there is not only hundred...it thousand..and make a huge pile from the corpse. Just why?and what for? Ezax''s POV "Finally,I can shake them off.."(Ezax) I let out breath of relieve....once I do that. I noticed I was in room. I stand up then I look up around..this room..its furniture...It was royalty. I am sure of it. What was the king thinking?As I thought that I begin to read the book..but nothing important. I look around ,and then Noticided..there was a diary under pile of clothes.This diary..I hope it isn''t the main perpetrator. Then I try to read what inside diary.. But after long time,I don''t get anything..except the owner diary was a girl.After read it from page to page..finally I Found some information.. It was written like this. "Father day by day..He become emotionless. and govern the civilian half halfheartedly. It has been month..but father yet to recover.." This page then tells bit by bit..about how his father lost his appetite. Never get out from his room and always crying when He see her because she resemble her mother..then I flip another page silently and read it bit by bit...it tells her father condition become worsen as day past.. his body become thin..his voice become hoarse...still he govern his kingdom got better which made the princess happy...a kingdom branch huh..that''s why there was a castle here..let me flip another page.then in the next page it tells he met a prince from another kingdom...I don''t interested in your romance life..so I just read it as fast I could..then this line.. "Father smile finally returned,when I announced our wedding. It made happy and cry with happiness....father vitality also return bit by a bit. I hope father can return to his usual self.." Weird...somethng must be happened..if not there is no way this situation was possible...I read it more and more. It tolds everything about their life...including at the bed...which made me blushing..but I brushed it aside...then it is already 1 years.It is also pointed that his father already recovered..and returned to his usual himself who often make a joke and teach her husband how to govern the city. Which made she happy..day by day went past..and then the princess finally were pregnant with a child...everyone in the village...congrulate them. The king or her father than held the biggest party and at the same time he passed his throne to her husband..I see... I bet the prince was a corrupted one. After all it was common to see a trick like this..human can''t be judged by their cover..no it was same to any race..but..It was harder to judge inside either..after all people won''t show their true self easily..not mention authority..money..beautiful girl at stake..I believe this what made the kingdom like this..but then..I flip another page..but found the prince was a kind one and every civillian was happy...no one said anything bad and the way he govern the kingdom..it was more awesome than his father. His father often praised him because of that.. ... If this happened..then why thetownenter a state like this..such a thing. I don''t understand. I sighed then flip another page...Nothing happened...everyone was happy..their son..also walk around happily...I scratch my head as I read this...then a strange accident happened...it was 1 month before today.. "Today,my husband searching for the lost people..I hope my husband will return safely..." ..A kidnapping?Who was the one do it?Inner person?or others kingdom?As anything can happened I continued to read bit by bit. More more people was lost..they didn''t know where they go..even the previous king or her father is also lost. The husband also become restlest and try to make her run away from here..but she persistent and want to be with him...thought it was like that they send their son to faraway place. Quite clever I said..at least the son will life...if anything happened.. I flip another page.the accidentmade me surprised.. "My son,he was kidnapped when my husband he know this he become furious and begin to search like a mad person...while I was crying until my eyes dried..." It decided it must be inner person. and must be the one with huge authority. after this kind of plan must be secret...then I read it little by little...she write less and less until the 3 weeks ago...It ends here . "....Kidnapping...It must be concerning about the research..still the one who do this..just who is he?How can he kidnap this many?why the other kingdom don''t move?I must investigate it any futher..but how?"(Ezax) Chapter 46:Blood castle part 3 Hmm...there is nothing in here...weird the page ,there was some torn in the beginning...there must be something hidden. Still...there is nothinng..but what I know..the princess...didn''t run anywhere...because her things still here...not to mention. It was too tidy..and there is dust linger around this room..still the dust wasn''t that thick. From the thickness I could tell this room only unused for 1 week...considering that the accident must happened recently..when I entered room...there is no smell of blood or anything. It was also tidy....then the princess must be somewhere else. But I doubt shesurvived this incident..sight..no other choices...but to go another room... "Sight..I must go pass them again?"(Ezax) Remember that..made me shivering. Brr... "God please bless me!!"(Ezax) Slowly I opened the door open....no one is here. Must step slowly..as I though that..someone poke my shoulder.. "Oni-chan..let''s play."(Child ghost) There is no need to ask...the answer is RUN!!!!!!!!FU CK FUCK !!!I AM SO FUCKED UP!!!!!!!! ===================================================================================================================== Narrator POV. "......Any survivor..?"(Hikari) Eliza and Hikari shook their head....after they found the corpse..they decided to look around. But they found no one survived. "Any corpse?"(Seria) "None."(Hikari) This is what they think weird the most..they only found the corpse of child.more like dismembered corpse of child..but they din''t found anything other than that... not even a singleadult or teenegar was found by them. Hikari then think for a moment ...even thought the monster they fight before it was just a single mutant. It wasn''t that strong nor anything..she think the mutant was still only at experimental stage and then scientist must hiding somewhere. Poke poke...she then turn around and saw..Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation. "Hikari,Hikari I found some survivor..."(Titania) "Good work titania.."(Hikari) Hikari says that as she pat titania little head...still it was good thing there was a survivor.thanks good she send her to do some surveilance around the castle just before they entered it.. Then Hikari asked titania. By the way Ezax''s pixie kagome also with her. thought she was silent since beginning... "Titania can you guide us?"(Hikari) "Un!"(Titania) ===================================================================================================================== Ezax''s POV Fuck..I swear,If I chased like this I will grind this castle to ground!!!piece of shit!!!I said that in my heart..Now I guess this must be the king''s room....The dust..it was much thicker than the others room..as I look around I found nothing special..are you fucking kidding me?as I though that..I found a giant mirror glued on the wall. The size..it can easily full reflect me. The dust also very heavy......hmm?Wait..why there is a huge mirror like this?A mirror for a guy usually only need to mirror his face. The reason...well I pick up some brick from the wall and then throw it to the mirror...it broke the mirror and at the same went past the mirror.. Bingo!!there were a secret passage. "well...let''s see what was inside.."(Ezax) I then lift the mirror and found there is a door .thought the door was rather small and have hole in it.As I thought that...I opened the door and found a huge tunnel. but it was so dark and I can''t see anything. Let''s see..I guess I will make some torch. I take out a single piece of wood and then burn it with magic. This should be sufficient..let''s check what is inside...I throught go the tunnel...but the dust were so thick...and I found nothing.gooddamit..after 15 minutes I went throught tunnel...I finally see some light...'' Looks like it was the way out..as I hurried over. I found I was in basement..more deep than anything. Then I found myself in room...no...instead of room...it was more likely research room happened here with many windows..the light was from the windows which is opened....then does it means. The culprit was the king?but it doesn''t make sense somehow.I look around and then notice...there was a corpse that died because hunger. The smell..it must be around 2 months or 3 months ago..ugh..it hurts my nose....from the corpse...a male. Was this the prince..wait that is impossible. The corpse already here since 2 or 3 months ago..the prince was still exist based on the princess diary..at least until 3 weeks ago he still with the princess. THen it means.it was the king....but then why the king was left here?and who do it? I scratch my head as I thought that. But I know this room must be left over for 2 or 3 months...let''s see if any book here can tells us..anything. I begin to quickread the book...but I found this room nothing more than study room and little research room....all of the book here..it was only basic of mutant experiment..that explain why the mutant we fought before we arrive here so weak. Still the book were already worn out..and some of the page can''t be read. There is no trace of food or anyone that live here. But why the king was killed here?What for? Who is the culprit? Let''s see what was outside the window..as I thought that I go to window and notice..from below we can''t see this window exist...nor from the sides...it was well hidden.The one who make it don''t want to be seen... but there is only windows..there is no latern here or anything...I think the one who used must be someone who will be fine in the castle even in the morning. But who can freely enter the king chamber and go through the second passage without knowing?Even the princess and the prince can''t freely enter this room. Wait...the queen and the king can freely enter this room...but the king corpse was found here..what about the queen ?She can freely enter this room and no one care. but..the princess said..she died..a long ago. Thought it isn''t easy,but surely she can fake her death...not to mention her died was cause of ilness. if she fake her death..that means this room was used for her research when she finished her research she fake her death and moves other places to create the mutants...still was it really to create a mutant?and why willing to use human?wasn''t create an animal mutant was easier?There must be a reason behind it..and am very sure of it..I think must research more about this place. Chapter 47:Blood castle part 4 "Damn it,the queen''s room were already cleaned."(Ezax) There is nothing.nothing all don''t mention book or anything..there is nothing except dust,a very thick dust. This is suck...I have been 3 hours searching and I got nothing. as I thought that Typhon then begin to speak to me in my heart. "Calm down for a moment Ezax."(Fafnir) "Fafnir?It has been long time since you last talked.."(Ezax) "It was already clear wasn''t it..only the queen able to do this."(Fafnir) "Fafnir what if it was wrong?We didn''t have definite proof..beside it only a theory."(Ezax) "Why the hell you should do that?wasn''t there is an easy way to check the queen''s dead or not?"(Fafnir) "What?"(Ezax) If there is an convenient way then why you don''t tell me?well enough of thinking.. "Go on."(Ezax) "Dig her graves."(Fafnir) "FUCK NO!!Surely I will incur curse if I do that!!!!"(Ezax) I won''t do any of that,because I hate curse the most. "It just a joke.you don''t need to be so angry."(Fafnir) Seriously,if you are joking like that than I will summon you and teach you some lesson. "Anyway,enough of joke, Ezax I think you should regroup with everyone. That way you can pinpoint who is the main culprit."(Fafnir) "You right. But before that..can I ask you a question."(Ezax) "Sure."(Fafnir) "Why all of you become soquiet?I mean since I partying with hikari..all of you rarely talk."(Ezax) "...Well..how to explain it. It just we think we will only disturb you..not to mention this was the first time you partying with someone."(Fafnir) "No need,I graceful for your concern but we are family..there is no need to be so quiet.."(Ezax) "Really?"(All dragon except fafnir) Then one by one begin to chat happily.. "Fuh,Finally I can chat with you again..Wahaha!!!you should told me if you are lonely without us!"(Tiamat) "I don''t know why I regret giving you freedom to talk freely. "Master thank you for concern and about this accident I am the same as fafnir. But let''s not point on someone until we get definite proof."(Brionac) Straight to work,the usual brionac. Thought I felt he is bit enthusiast this time well it was a good thing. "Fuwah,Ezax ezax because I can talk as usual can you get the book of homunculus?I am kinda interested in that."(Typhon) "Hey hey you know it was forbidden book right?So the answer is no!"(Ezax) "Ugh fine.."(Typhon) Then this time it was kulshedra. "Yay !!!can you pet me again?"(Kulshedra) "Sure I don''t mind that."(Ezax) You are my only comfort..of course I will do it. "Ara ara..as thanks onee-chan will teach you bed te-"(Leviathan)This narrative has been purloined without the author''s approval. Report any appearances on Amazon. "No thanks."(Ezax) I denied her before she finish her words..I have no need for technique that teach beast. "Oh well it was your choice."(Leviathan) She was dissapointed...near kill me there. "Anyway looks like bahamut didn''t want to speak like usual so Ezax,let''s regroup."(Fafnir) "Roger."(Ezax) As I thought that I get out from window and jump from there to the ground and immediately search everyone else.. Narrator POV With Titania guide them they arrived in a huge tower..or more likely prison for the villagers. Hikari and the rest found the villager was wounded very badly...but even thought they were wounded there was not many people only 200 or more. That''s why they decided hikari would treat the one who severely wounded while the Eliza and Seria bandaging the one who injured lightly..still seria was watching Hikari because she thinks..her magic power..it even beat his nii-san in capacity. But of course she can''t watch her nonstop because some of the villager was wounded rather severe..thought they didn''t see the villager who is 17 years old or younger..Then hikari cast another group healing spell. "Healing wind!!"(Hikari) another 50 fifter person was healed...once they are healed..the group move and another group come.this is the ninth time she cast it..every 3 healing she would need to drink the magic potion for recovering her most of magic power then cast it. still there was so many..and they spend their most time healing.the villager who was healed of course didn''t sit idly..after healed they would give thanks to hikari and then try to help the other villagers. After 3 hours finally all of the villagerlife already fine and then the one who is looks like the prince come foward and then.. "Thank you for helping us,if not for you help many more villagers will died.."(Prince) "It''s fine,it is our job to help who is in need."(Hikari) "Once again I thank you for the princess benevolent."(Prince) "I see,prince heartfelt can you explain to us what us happened?"(Hikari) "As you command."(Prince) Hikari never expect for him to remember...after all she met him at the party once..unlike the other nobles or prince try to flirt with him. He just treated her like a child and it was happened very long ago...thought it was like that. she knows he was a good guy..not as much ezax thought...for now she should ask more information about what is happening..then slowly the prince begin to explain her in detail. It was told that the prince marry the princess here and he choose to live here instead return to his kingdom..because in his kingdom many people try to assasinate him to battle of throne..that''s why he declared desertain as participant and instead choose to live with the princess in this village..even thought it was village it was governed by a king..and can be called a small kingdom...but in their happy live..suddenly some of villager..especially kid went missing..that''s why they made a search team.but in the they didn''t found the remnant of corpse...it was mysterious.nevertheless they still searching and searching until..they noticed all of the kids are gone....then one day and horde of weird monster or called homunculus attack them they tried their best but in the end they lost..and were captured..the child and the villagers were separated. That''s explain why they didn''t see any child...but to tell the truth..it would hurt her the most...after all the child blood was sucked dry.then they also tell.bit by bit a group of 10 villager was taken by someone.. "Princess..from your expression I can tell you already see our child..can you tell us?"(Prince) "Hikari,we shouldn''t tell them.."(Seria) Seria give light whisper to hikari...it made hikari hesitate. Should she tell him or not?still how she tell her?She tell her the whole child was tortured and was blood was sucked dry?as she though that she noticed the ground suddenly she felt an earthquake.. "Sorry but can I answer this after we escaped safely?"(Hikari) "I understand.."(Prince) as they begin to evacuate from the tower,the tower was shaking and sometimes it tilted but return to its straight position soon.. "It will be dangerous for us to stay here any longer..let''s hasten our pace."(Seria) But once they were out..they were noticed..they entrance where they come in..was surrounded by an 100 mutant.. "Everyone prepare for the battle !!"(Seria) Ezax''s POV "Ezax!!!there is battle coming over there!!"(Tiamat) "I know!!!"(Ezax) As I hurriedly ran toward the battle where coming suddenly a dagger was thrown to me..but I dodge it by hair breadth...this skill..just who is the one who throw it? "Not bad not bad at all..as expected of the manwho is chosen by legendary dragon."(???????) A voice resounded come from above...was a girl with bird wings.Her hair was colored purple..and wear green battle armor. She also wield a huge halbert..slowly she descended...then once she do that..she then .. "I believe you can''t fly yet. well it was normal..no one taught you how use your power. nor you have full control power of your dragon"(???????) ".....what?"(Ezax) "Pardon of my rudeness...I am here just want to check just what kind of man you are. I think you are just pathetic man..turn out you to be quite decent.."(??????) Suddenly she thrust her spear..I draw my katana to repel it then at the same time throw my dagger to her head...but he dodged it..instead her haldberdgone and greatsword appeared instead.. "DODGE!!"(Fafnir) I jump to the side..but then a flame begin to burst slowly engulfed the blade.. "Engulf him with your flame !!phoenix!!!!!!"(????) Suddenly the flame bigger and try engulfed me..but quickly I use my staff and then cast spell. "Waterfall of protection!!"(Ezax) But the flame penetrates my defense wall and then she appeared with A huge axe appeared ..this is!!! "Destroy everything!!!Roc!!"(?????) As I jumped to dodge the axe I saw a huge crater was created..this girl!!she was strong!!as I though that..suddenly her axe vanished..instead a gauntled appeared... "Release your winds!!!Garuda!!"(?????) "She give me a punch which sends me to the castle wall..... "Guagh!!"(Ezax) "Ezax!!!"(Every dragon) ........as I coughed blood... "Well not bad..for me to switch weapon 3 times...still I have 7 weapons. I didn''t even used spell yet only little boost to mine. Well considered you still used manual switch I bit understand it.."(??????) "I see...that''s why you are strong yourself."(Ezax) As I wiped my blood..I draw my bow.. "Chahe her!!Burn her!!Until she died!!!TIamat!!"(Ezax) "Ou!!"(Ezax) I created an arrow flame...and then fired it...she cut the fire arrow with easy..well you mustn''t cut it thought..because it explode. Thought then I draw my dagger and. "Kulshedra!!!"(Ezax) "YES!!"(Kulshedra) Buff my own speed I try to hasten myself and then just in front of her I jumped and try to pierce her head.. "Not bad.."(????) A shield appeared in her hand and block it with ease...damn it..just what kind of shield is this?Not even to be pierced by mithril... "Not bad not bad all..you really deserved to be chosen by the dragon. Even this was out of my expectaction..with such a weak race youhave war with..you can achieve this strength.thought their physical strength only so so.."(??????) "Weak race?"(Ezax) Are you kidding?The strongest race with physical race was said weak? "Just who are you?and why you hinder me?"(Ezax) "The answer of that question..depending on the strength you showed me!!"(?????) Fine!!!I will force you to say everything... Chapter 48:Blood castle part 5 Intermediate understanding spear battle arts,Unicorn horn!!! I use battle arts to deal a charge attack. But it was blocked with her shield then she push me with the shield and made me lose the balance and then her shield vanish. A great sword that held her both of hands. "Phoenix gale slicer!!!"(?????) That skill it was advanced great sword knowing moves which created a huge shockwave!!It was already amazing she created this huge!!!But it was enveloped and fired twice!!!Who the hell is she???? Advanced knowing sword moves !! Revolution whilrwind!!! I quickly spin and created small tornado surround me to protect myself . The shockwave was slowly pushing my tornado,but it was fine!!I jumped and then created 3 fire arrows with magic!!! Exploding arrows!!as I fired it she only point her greatsword on my arrow then suddenly the sword was covered by a huge flame and then slowly formed a huge bird head. "Devour it.."(?????) As the flame responded to the mysterios girl,the bird head open its mouth and devour my fire!!!What the!!!!!how is it possible?As I thought the mysterious girl already jumped and then change her sword with an halberd!! "Ezax !!Use divider line!!"(Bahamut) Hear that,Irelease my bow and quickdraw my katana and prepared to divide her into two. Surprised by it she went block with her halbed and pushed both of us to the ground. Damn it!!even advanced understanding katana moves can''t scratch her!!It was my strongest move yet I didn''t even able to scratch her... "It was already lucky you able to push her back!!if you are second late or anything..you will already in heaven right now!!!"(bahamut) "I know you don''t need to reprimand me!!"(Ezax) I sheathe my katana back and then switch to my sword. Dragon magic!! Shine blade!!!!A light covered my swords..Hope it can penetrates her shield!! Then I charge to her with this sword of mine..saw this she only lift her shield and then covered her shield with magic from light element!!!!!!DEVOUR IT!!!!When the tip of my sword touch the shield the light that covered by her light was gone and made her surprised. I won''t let this chance go!!! Advanced understanding katana battle arts!! Divider line!! I do it vertically from below which repel her shield . with this it is over!!!as I prepared to pierce her head with my sword..she only mutters 1 word.If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. "Sigmund."(??????) What?Once she said that a huge white doveappeared behind her and try to tear me with its beak. Because of that I jumped back...but fafnir then muttered 1 words. "This light...that is impossible!!"(Fafnir) As fafnir says that,he suddenly force his way out and appear beside me!!!then He roared!!! "Sigmund!!Why, Why you are here?why you are in that girl!!"(Fafnir) "....It doesn''t concern you fafnir."(Sigmund) ...This is ?is she the same type of fafnir?the legendary being that reside in person?Was she someone fafnir knows? "Sigmund!!!Answer me why you attack us?"(Fafnir) the dove didn''t give any answer but then the mysterious girl ride into her back and then it soar its wing and prepared to fly away. "Ezax,with your strength right now I can''t tell you anything. After all you are far to weak...you can''t even assimelate your magic with your dragons nor battle arts. Fight with this kind of handicap ,there is no need for me to inquire your strength any further."(?????) ''WAIT!!!!!!"(Ezax) "I hope next time we met. you will become stronger and can at least make me tell my name."(??????) Before I can caugh her she already flew away.. I just don''t understand her motive?Just why she attack me?as I thought that typhon resound. "Ezax,don''t chase him...with your power right now.we can''t do anything."(Typhon) "I know..beside what''s important now are everyone safety."(Ezax) Even thought I said that..fafnir was really eager to pursue her. I can tell from his face..just who is she? Narrator POV. "Sigmund,does this mean fafnir had awakened his memory and true power?"(?????) The mysterious girl asked sigmund who she ride on. "I think his memory never gone to begin with it just whose power sealed. beside..you underestimate Ezax too much. Your shield was reppeled by him even thought your strength was far greater than yours."(Sigmund) "Because everyone said his dragon power was still sealed. to be honest..I never expect he able to awaken his dragon power this soon."(???????) "I understand that..but wasn''t it good thing at least he do this much?If not how he can handle his sword enemy?the evil dragon?that leads the enemy main force?"(Sigmund) "You right,let''s return first at home there is need we need to pick up from our home...."(??????) As they say that they hastened their speed toward their home. While they are on their way Ezax,Hikari and everyone else already finish killing the remnant mutant and already evacuated everyone in the safe place.now they were camp outside with the other citizin and had prepared food for them. Once they finished..Ezax built a larger tent and begin to ask for their explanation. "Summary you didn''t know anything about the true culprit?"(Ezax) "Yes..I am sorry I can''t be help to you royal blade.."(Prince) Ezax hear this frown his eyebrows and give a threatening gaze toward hikari who is whistling in the corner. Ezax will never let go once this accident over...well for now he already get information from hikari side. "Prince,I want you to answer me honestly..so please don''t lie to me."(Ezax) "Of course.."(Prince) "Prince where is the princess?where is princess father the king?"(Ezax) "About the princess....she was taken away by the one who captured us. there is also villager who was taken by her...about the king..he vanished without trace around 1 month ago.Even I didn''t know where is the king right now.."(Prince) "...I see,another question?did you see the face the one who kidnapped you?"(Ezax) "No."(Prince) "Then let me change the question was the culprit was a woman?Or was a man?Please answer it honestly."(Ezax) The prince thinks for a bit,looks he was unsure of it.. "I think it was woman.even thought she wears a black hood that cover her face...her hands was indeed a woman hands."(Prince) "I see?Can you tell how old the hand is she ?"(Ezax) "I think around 30 years..but I am not sure of myself..."(Prince) "One more question?Why the kidnapper spared you?"(Ezax) "I don''t know myself...But my honest speculation was the half of the villager was used for experiment to kill those monster we faced.."(Prince) The prince face turn into grim,but I nod as the sign he was right.. "I see,Princess would you now tell us the truth?I know the truth was bitter itself. Still please let me humble servant know it..."(Prince) "Prince sorry but we can''t tell you yet. After all we didn''t know the accident very well. So please go back to your tent and took a rest."(Ezax) "I understand,please forgive me to show this side of mine."(Prince) As he said that he bow and return to his own tent. Once I feel no one was near our tent,I ask hikari. "Is what you said was true?All of the child lost all of their blood? tortured?"(Ezax) "Yes,we saw it with our own eyes."(Hikari) "I see,looks like I need to investigate this any further."(Ezax) But gist of it,I already got what the motive is..now what I need is a plan how to capture the culprit?For now let''s search the basement again and investigate it from there. "Everone I will investigate the basement.I request you too protect this camp. Can you do it?"(Ezax) "Yes!!"(Hikari and Eliza) Then once I do that,we begin to rest at our own tent..but today I can''t sleep. I was afraid...afraid of that mysterious girl who I fight today. She was too strong I can''t even scratch her. She toyed with me..I was nothing compared to her. What should I do?How can I get stronger?How can I beat her? "Damn it...if only I was stronger.."(Ezax) Chapter 49:Blood castle part 6 "Morning Ezax."(Hikari) "Morning.."(Ezax) I said that as I am yawning..I lack asleep because yesterday accident...well for now let''s help Hikari set up. While Seria and Eliza do their job by looking around the possible enemies.. "Ezax May I know who did you fight yesterday?"(Hikari) "Why you suddenly ask that?"(Ezax) "Because when you help us,your magic power already depleted severely,not to mention on our way there was a crater on castle wall."(Hikari) She is surprisingly sharp on this little detail. Well As long I keep silent she won''t ask any futher I guess... "There is no corpse or anything. Based on your personality..the reason you didn''t tell us it must because you worried about us..you also lack of sleep. From that I can conclude 1 thing. Ezax,you lost didn''t you?"(Hikari) "Pretty much."(Ezax) "I see.."(Hikari) I continued peel the potato with knife,once it finished..Hikari ask me again. "There is no need for you to be low in spirit. Losing doesn''t matter what matter you survived...."(Hikari) "Thank you for concern. But this isn''t about a shame or whatever..what matter is if I can protect you guys or not? She is far stronger than me and beat me easily. If such a person targeting me..how couldn''t you be not afraid?"(Ezax) "Ezax..don''t worry even you won''t easily die..I believe it. After all you have life strong as OX!!"(Hikari) Is it just me?Hikari was being weird. Like she didn''t hear me well or her thought was on different things. She must be tired.. "Hikari you are mistaken...what I am corcerned are not my life..It is you,Seria and Eliza."(Ezax) "Eh?"(Hikari) "After all of your life is priority."(Ezax) "Eh?really?"(Hikari) Why you are blushing?As I wondering did she have a fever or not. "I never expect you to fall me love this soon.."(Hikari) Seriously?Are this girl an idiot?How did she conclude that from my words? "It was you who is an idiot."(Fafnir) "Stupid master."(Tiamat) "Eh?Eh?"(Kulshedra) "Ara ara ara,one-chan will be angry you know ?If you kept going dense like this."(Leviathan) "Fools."(Bahamut) "Even me who is also block head understand just what are you saying."(Typhon) "Playboy who plays with woman heart go die!!"(Brionac) ...........holy shit,just what did I do to get all of your remark?Instictvely.. "Arg all of you missunderstand!!!It was for the quest !!!It was request from guild master to protect her!!!Beside if she died !!then I can''t rest in peace!!after all my name will be forever remain as Princess kidnapper!!I don''t want that!!"(Ezax) I don''t want my name was written history as someone who kidnapped this idiot princess!! "Yes yes~~we understand."(Every dragons inside me) FUh!!FUUUU!!!Why they didn''t believe me.. "Ah you tsundere~~~"(Hikari) "LIKE HELL I AM TSUNDERE!!!"(Ezax)Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon. 1 hour later. "Sight really all of my worry will be gone once I am talked to her..."(Ezax) I can''t even remember why I am so worried about this. really when you talk to her all of your worry will be gone in flash..I never understand why I be like this thought. Someone who can you talk without any worries..really..what an odd girl.I though that as I went down to the basement. Just in case I will check them throughtly...but then fafnir said.. "Wasn''t it a good thing?If you marry hikari even thought your life is harsh..as long you with her..you live will be always happy. After all Hikari was such a worryfree which make the best wife."(Fafnir) This dragon...Did he like hikari that much as your daughter in law?I don''t know what he always like this...he never do this before.. "I didn''t understand why I must marry that idiot girl..indeed it was good thing. Still her flaws..it was too much."(Ezax) ...even thought I said this..if Fafnir told me to say it one by one..I don''t know what to say. After all she was indeed a good girl. "She was a good cook,she love you more than anything,she was sharp..she was kind,she was gentle. see?She was full of good point!!"(Fafnir) "...It doesn''t mean you must marry that girl..as long your feeling wasn''t there..then marriage same as failure."(Ezax) "RIGHT!!!"(Every other dragons) ...It was rare for them to but in. But I was interested why they deny hikari. "I absolutely refuse for weak girl like her to marry Ezax!!!Someone who marry ezax should able to protect both of herself and Ezax!!!Because it is ezax job to sniper enemy from her back."(Tiamat) ...Your preferance..I am 99% you will be forever alone if you do this..after all many girls want to be protected. thought not every girl. well forget about this idiot... "What a bad prefferance,master I suggest you should marry Eliza instead.."(Brionac) "Heh,Why you say that?"(Ezax) To be honest I am surprised for brionac says this..after all I think brionac hate this kind of thing for sure with his knight attitude. "Eliza,maybe indeed was lacking. But she was earnest and very knightly. I believe she will be able to separate her work and her love to you She also a responsible girl which will be a nice mother.Not to mention she also has feelings for you.that''s why master should choose her instead."(Brionac) ''Maybe what you say was true,but Eliza feeling to me was like respect instead of love."(Ezax) Hear this brionac turn silent..but I feel If I seen his face he will facepalmed.. "Ah you guys no fun at all. The best woman of course must be a girl who is older than him.that girl also must be who care her family the most and knows you like her backhand!!after all no matter how bad is she~~as long she care her family and know what you family need.You will be happy.(Leviathan) "That was interesting. But I am agree with that kind of idea..after your partner don''t need to be perfect to lead a happy. Still leviathan I never met that kind of girl as you describing."(Ezax) "I know. I hope you can met this kind of girl soon~~I want to see your child~~"(Leviathan) Thought your previous words was greed..but your peverted personality can''t be gone huh?Then it was kulshedra turn. "Umm,Master can I talk?"(Kulshedra) "Sure."(Ezax) Fafnir and the others was like parents..but for me kulshedra was like little sister. She was so innocence..if only she had a nice fur~~ it will be perfect. "Master, I think master should found a person who can master trust and trust master more than anyone. Trust between each other much more important than anything."(Kulshedra) "Well,Trust like that will be rare..after all not everyone can open their heart to each other like that..But I will do my best."(Ezax) "nn."(Kulshedra) Once this over this time it was typhon. "Ckckckc!!You guys have no sense..the best girl of course must be the girl who has the best intelligent!!As long she was clever surely she can made Ezax do his work easier."(Typhon) ....I rather expect this from typhon who likes books more than anyone else. If fafnir was a wise,then typhon will be genius. After all his memory was too far to amazing..Then everyone response was one thing. "yeah,yeah..she will be more interested in her research and book than Ezax."(Tiamat) "I think a girl like that will treat the marriage as only sort of ceremony..Ezax won''t be happy with that kind of marriage."(Leviathan) "Boring~~if she can''t play with me then I don''t like it."(Kulshedra) "Not to mention a clever girl like that often used others.. I don''t like the relationship by using each other.(Fafnir) "A clever girl like that will often do cheap way. You must fight fairly if you can.."(Brionac) Hearing their remark...typhon only said one words. "FINE!!!!!I know I am lame!!"(Typhon) Yep he is sulking. A person with a lot of knowledge wasn''t always wise..what fafnir says was true. Then bahamut was silent finally orpressed by others..this wasn''t this a bullying? "Hey bahamut!!tell us!!What is your type!!"(Tiamat) "I am also interested in your opinion in this. If you don''t mind please share it with us."(Brionac) "Tell one-chan please~~one-chan was interested in little mut mut (little bahamut nickname) preferance."(Leviathan) "Oni-chan,would you please tell me?"(Kulshedra) "Bahamut tell Ezax,after all it concerned about our future you know!!"(Typhon) "Hmm!!I don''t have anything to tell you!!"(Bahamut) Bahamut roared in anger. I expect this from anti social dragon...thought sometimes I wondering..was he a guy or girl? Well I never checkhim in dragon forms..so I expect he was a female until fafnir says so..fafnir must thinking this was fun. Anyway fafnir who try to make some mischief.. "Fafnir is homo so there is don''t need to ask.."(Fafnir) ...Fafnir.....you know..you musn''t joke like that..as I thought that I felt they were fighting ..well the winner is obvious thought..as I thought that I descend..and then once I arrived at "...We met again Ezax.."(??????) "You..why you are here?"(Ezax) The mysterious girl already waiting with behind her the corpse of child. As I thought that suddenly the door where I came in closed. "The time limit is 1 hour. If you failed to get out of this place in that time..all of your friend,the villager of this city. They will die.."(??????) "WHAT!!!They are innocence!!"(Ezax) "...I don''t care about that. the only way for you to get out of this place...break the stone I prepared for you."(???????) As she said that a huge stone appeared in front of me....this stone. Pain reflection stone!!!What''s more this purity. It was 100%. Pain reflection stone..It was 1 of the rare material that said can''t reflect pain..depend on the purity..the pain that reflected can be 5 or 10 times. This stone can''t be used as armor because it was really fragile..from the purity. It will be 100 Times...If I can hold out..then I will die!! "What''s wrong ,for every seconds you hesitate..your friends life will also slowly dying..after all their camp was attacked."(??????) This stone is big..I can''t chip it slowly. But if I make mistake..then my friends willl die..what I SHOULD DO?There is no way I can''t fight her..her barrier was also very strong..even thought this stone was a fragile..it will need at least to use a silver hammer to break it in one go...but 100 times of that.....Can I hold it?this is matter life and death..she only stared at me with cold eyes...then she take out some orb...and then it shows everyone was attacked by horde of mutant...not to mention..there was kind strange mutant that lead it... "...IF you don''t have guts..then you can watch your friend die..one by one.."(?????) "I will protect them!!I will protect them even if it cost my life!!"(Ezax) Chapter 50:Blood castle part 7 Narrator POV. Everyone in refuge camp were trying their best to survive this,anyone who can''t fight was ordered to protect the old people and woman first ,while the one who can fight will try their best "This strange mutant was troublesomel!!"(Seria) Seria said after try to stab its head with the katana,because she failed she pull back from the strange mutant..even thought it was strange ?Or weird?It was only different in color and was slightly bigger...you can say it was the leader of the pack.. Since the battle start there is some casaulty from their side..but the majority them was because the strange mutant. The strange mutant defense was insane...and it slowly grow stronger by eating the others mutant...its speed was even faster by a bit. It can''t be defeated by magic...Even their strongest attack can''t even graze it. that''s why they must keep holding this strong mutant..but then Eliza berserk ability already run out. Not let this chance go the mutant try to grab eliza but was saved by Hikari.. "Thanks hikari!!"(Eliza) "Eliza don''t force yourself!!!your berserker ability already run out!"(Hikari) "Nn!!"(Eliza) But then mutant try to open it mouth and use acid breath..but Seria who saw this swing her katana in wide arc which created an shockwave....it didn''t hurt the strange mutant..but it change the trajectory of the breath... "Hikari,please evacuate everyone as soon as possible.."(Seria) "It won''t that easy it will take a very long time before we can fully evacuate the others. Not to mention its target was the civilian!!"(Hikari) The strange mutant felt ignored grow angry and try to hit both of them with its big hands but were dodged with minimal movement...they keep dodging while Eliza help evacuate the others. Because she activating her berserk ability.her movement and strength will be the same as upper C rank..there is 15 minutes drawbacks from the berserker ability after 15 minutes of using..that''s why Eliza tried her best not to involve in the fight..until she can use her ability again... "GROARRR!!"(Strange mutant) Giving up on hit those 2 ,the strange mutant boddy suddenly become very thin while the leg was grow bulkier!!!suddenly it jumped and high to the air. Saw this Hikari and seria knows what it is going to do!!! "Hikari!!!Cast protection spell!!"(Seria) "I know!!"(Hikari) It wasn''t like Seria can''t cast protective spell!!!It just if she used magic then she need her dragon to come out. Ezax or her brother already warn her who knows how many times not to use it!!after all a dragoon was forbidden to stay at other continent..if she was found out then it will create a huge problem..thought Ezax said if her life was on danger or she was desperate she can use it as she fit. This situation is desperate..but it wasn''t corcerned her life so she didn''t care that much..beside Hikari spell should be enough to protect them..after all she wasn''t a normal human.... Once the strange mutant stop go higher..it then dive to the where civillian is..once hikari saw that she immediately casted the barrier toward the civillian attacked which repelled the strange mutant away..saw this they immediately go the strange mutant try to divert intention once again. Seria saw this was amazed at her spell level and speed chanting She also able to do voiceless incantation..at the same ime was wondering...if she was a normal princess then it would be impossible for her to do this much.. If seria wasn''t wrong..there is an hero or anything like that. It was rather common knowledge. Seria was thinking if she was the hero..or heroine. But it should be weird..after all based on their information the new candidate for the hero wasn''t ready yet. It wasn''t normal..no it was strange. After all hero candidate should be nurtured and trained somewhere...if this was true..then why she was here playing around with Her brother?Even if she was on run because she refuse to married to stranger she can refuse..after all she was the hero candidate.The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation. There is 3 possible outcome if her thinking was right. First Her fiance was also hero candidate or have high authority..second she wasn''t a hero candidate just an abnormal princess who was stronger ,Third...shefound Ezax was more worthy to be hero candidate..and try to make Ezax usurp the opposed fiance position and then marry him and bound him to her kingdom. She hopes she was thinking too much..well if she choose the third choice...then Seria will kill her or stab her in the back...anyone that try to disturb her brother happiness must die!!Or what seria thought. "Seria !!Please made it stumble!!!"(Hikari) "okay!!"(Seria) Seria made a wide arc of swing at the mutant front leg...even thought it can''t cut the leg..it made the mutant stumble,once she do that!!the mutant tried to defend itself by swinging the arm around...then suddenly many ofrope of light appeared near it....and then bind the strange mutant...but it wasn''t over yet..many of rope of light keep appearing..until it can cover the whole mutant...onceit do that.. "Judgement lance.."(Hikari) It was level 8 spell. Seria who saw this immediately know..if it was compared to dragon magic..it was only lower high rank level...but...its strength..as she was seen..The lance once it stabbed the strange mutant..the handle it melt slowly..and then from inside of the mutant..the lance spread and many small lance pierced from inside...This brutal tech...Hikari was not normal..if people weaker than her hit by it..A simple magic..that suited for killing..her control with magic..it was a monster clad in human suit.. "Now it''s done there is no need worry for the enemy anymore.."(Hikari) "Hikari...please tell me just wh-"(Seria) A kind of tentancle suddenly it appeared behind seria..if anyone observe it carefully..it can''t been seen that tentacle was made from the same material as mutant. It aimed at seria''s head..which made Hikari push seria down to dodge it...but.it can''t be completely dodged..because it grazed Hikari backs and blood begin to flow down. "Hikari!!"(Seria) "Don''t worry..I can heal it..."(Hikari) Hikari then begin to cast light magic and a light begin to gather at her hand..but just before it touched her wounds..the light dissapeared. "Shi t..I am run out of magic.."(Hikari) Hikari just noticed..her magic run out..such a beginner mistake. She grit her teeth as she endured the pain.Then slowly another tentacle erupt...then the same type from strange mutant appeared...but someone appeared riding on it..it was a woman around 30 years old...was she the boss?Everyone thinking..but then the prince who saw this suddenly walk to the front and then said.. "You are..you are the previous queen.why?Weren''t you supposed to be died!!!"(Prince) "Shut up lowlives,I only faked my death for my research.."(Queen) "Research?Do you mean research for mutant!!Don''t you know it was forbidden!!!!"(Prince) "Hahahahaha!!you missunderstand!!what I research was beyond that..mutant was only failure of my research.."(Quenn) "What!"(Prince) "What I research was eternal live..and eternal beauty. Nor you will understand that.."(Queen) "You old hag..do you know that you are stupid?.."(Hikari) The queen hear this look at hikari who stand up and point her rapier at her. "Do you know what you are seeking from it?"(Hikari) "What are you saying?"(Queen) "Old hag,if you truly don''t know what are you seeking..Then I suggest you stop...no please surrender yourself right now.."(Hikari) Hikari look at the queen with pity...everyone saw this doesn''t understand why she said this..but they understood what she is saying.. "You think,I am going to surrender myself after this 10 year research?!!You are fucking crazy!!!You child who didn''t know anything just shut up!!"(Queen) The mutant that queen ride on was prepared to attack..Its arm grow longer and aimed at hikari''s head..at fastest speed ..even seria who is the fastest among them and barely react. But hikari still keep calm..because "he was nearby". "Good work..leave the rest to me.."(Ezax) A sword made of light appeared in front of her and stab the hand to the ground...as they saw that they open their eyes as they can''t believe it..then another 3 swords appeared and aimed at the strange mutant..saw this the strange mutant appeared and dodge to the right..but the sword made a sharp turn and aimed at the mutant head.. "It follows me?"(Queen) The mutant try to defend its lord immediately made a shield using its body..when it pierced the mutant..the sword stopped and then pull back from the mutant body..and then return to Ezax who is wielding a sword..the special sword that Ezax used when he is fighting the royal blade candidate..He look around..saw Seria and Eliza were fine..but Hikari..had a graze at her back..it was very bad too.. "...hey..I will give you 2 choice...the first choice is for you to give up and accept your death..or the second choice which died miserably.."(Ezax) "Then I will choose the third choice!!!Which is your dead!!"(Queen) "I see..you better said your prayer then..You won''t die easily on my hand."(Ezax) While at basement room.. "That guy..is he an idiot?"(???????) As the mysterious girl look at the stone he destroyed...If normal people destroy it..they will die in shock..but Ezax destroyed it as fast he can and then run of throught the door.... "To cast a spell that delay the pain by 1 hour..can''t you understand the backlash of it?It will be multiplied 10 times..after the spell is over..is he seeking death?"(??????) "It must be because fafnir teaching...that guy..he always priotize other than himself..that guy..even after become dragon god..he never change."(Sigmund) Sigmund voice resounded throught the room. From her tone no one can know she was complimenting him or not.. "I see...sigmund please help me to pass this book to him.."(???????) "Why you don''t pass it yourself?Don''t you eager to pass it by yourself?"(Sigmund) "I plan to give him a gift for being Idiot...so he will take care his life better.."(????????) She must do this..after all only he can change the fate of this world..... Chapter 51:Blood castle part 8 "Hikari drink this."(Ezax) I pass her an emergency potion that I always have with me. It was worth 10 golds but I think her life is more important...once she catch it she askme with hesitation. "will it be fine for me to drink this expensive potion?I mean surely you have cheaper one right?"(Hikari) "Just drink it!Your life is more important than money!!"(Ezax) I must hurry before my spell dispelled.!!! A large sigil made of light appeared in front of me it was 2 meter wide andthen it shine brighter....Middle level dragon magic!! "Ray!!"(Ezax) I slash the sigil and then the magic was executed as the beam was fired from the sliced sigil....then it spread into 5 smaller beam and aimed at the mutant respective leg and heads..The mutant saw this begin to gather magic surround him and then a barrier which made by blood appeared...I see this is the real highlevel mutant huh!!but sorry my magic wasn''t a normal magic...as it clash with the blood wall it slowly penetrates the barrier....1 second.. 2 second ..3 second the barrier finally broken..but it powers already go down...it try to defend with the arm but it penetrates easily and destroy its leg.. "Cih!!!you monster!!!"(Queen) The queen take out a barrel from her spatial ring..more annoying than I thought.Once she do that,,the mutant destroy the barrel and blood come out and it drink it instant..all of the wound restored...What a pain.. "Blood to regenerate the lost part of mutant..I see so this mutant is your trump card?"(Ezax) "What you are seeing was only part of its strength!!!You human will never can beat this mu-"(Queen) I already throw my sword and it pierced the mutant head part or the brain part I think...then I created another magic sigil in front of me...this time it was numbers not the size.. Middle dragon magic.. "Amp swords."(Ezax) Slowly a swords made of light appeared from the sigil.10 is my limit..but it is enough once I do that I run toward her and then kick her from the mutant so she can''t recover it any futher you. Of course the reason I do this not because sympathy or anything...It just painless death was too good for her...once I kick her at the same time the swords already stabbed the mutant body all over the place... Once I do that,I grab the sword hilt and spin in the mid air and then I use a battle arts..of advanced knowing sword moves Destruction blast!!! I aimed at the ground where the mutant is..because of that. It was thrown in the air. After all if it regenerate again it will be a pain...so I will destroy it without any dust left...A magic sigil appeared in front of me and then I middle level dragon magic ray once again.. "DEFENSE!!!"(Queen) The mutant obey the queen order.. and then it turned to be a ball like armadillo!!!but the sword was still sticking out.still my magic wasn''t that weak!Because the aim wasn''t the armadillo..but the sword. Each sword will amplify magic by twice ..that''s why it should be finished by this. the sword then begin to shine more brighter than ever...and then suddenly a light burst from it. The mutant slowly burned into nothing..saw this the queen shivered....When I arrived they were speaking about immortality or something...thought it was just a lie..yes you can''t never grow old...but if your core or your heart was destroyed...then it the same as dying.....but her skin was smooth like a child...Let''s try to torture her a bit.. If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement."Ez-"(Prince) "Shut up."(Ezax) I give him a sharp glance which made him take a step back. Everyone also shudered at the same time..but I don''t care as I slowly walk toward the queen who was glittering her teeth... "I will give you anything !!!I so ple-"(Queen) "Don''t speak you bitch."(Ezax) I severed her left hands......the blood instantly stopped. I see...as expected she modified herself.... "Use your blood..."(Ezax) "What?"(Queen) "I repeat use your blood..NOW!!"(Ezax) For making the villager like this for your own ambition,lie to your family..and even wound my friends!!I WILL GIVE YOU A HELL!!!!!! She immediately noticed I am wasn''t kidding hurriedly soak her hands with blood...but then a strange thing happened..her arm immediately grow bulky... "NOW DIE!!!"(Queen) "What an Idiot."(Ezax) I quickdraw my katana and severed her mutant arm in instant.. I already predict this will happen. my hand wasn''t clean either...after all giving mercy to these kind of people...it was the worst thing to do..But you must go throught hell first...A sigil appeared in front of my right arms and then I grab her head with my right hand.. Middle dragon level level magic. "Nightmare!"(Ezax) A magic that shows the worst nightmare to the person,I don''t know what she see and I don''t care...Her eyes become white and she started foaming. So weak..once I released my grip she fall to ground unconsious.. "You have a good daughter and good husband yet you sacrifice them for your selfish ideal...an nice life yet you abandoned you without second thought..I pity your family.."(Ezax) Once I said that I go turn around and face everyone else...and then go to the prince. "Prince..it is up to you the rest..don''t worry it is perfectly safe after all a scum like her was already broken .."(Ezax) "Yes.."(Prince) "Everyone,the rest up to you.."(Ezax) Once I do that I run to the forest....and search for a cave. Once I found a cafe...I rest myself in there...and then prepared for the upcoming pain.. "Please don''t let anybody found out..I don''t want to make them worry .."(Ezax) ...What a fool I am..as I thought that..my arm begin to hurt...shit. "It already started huh.."(Ezax) Narrator POV.

I also tell him not to speak anything regarding about this incident...I want it to be covered. because I believe this is for the best...I also ask the same from the villager...thought they don''t want to do my suggestion but they nod their head. Mutant was a forbidden research and there is a necessary law about it...but to be honest the law was kinda annoying..after all the land must be abandoned for a few years..which made it unasable. Because of that I worried if their land was taken how will the villager will work?Stay safe is okay..but it is too much. That''s why I want them to tell a stories about a huge monster that eat their kind...with this their land will be safe and said it was royal blade who help them. In the end I use the royal blade authority again...I am kinda felt I am missuse it.. but this is fine..after all such a position was meant to be used. "I don''t know how to thank you Ezax-sama."(Prince) "It''s fine,after all I can''t let those mutant ran apart beside think this as if you owe me okay?"(Ezax) "Leave it to me!!after all I owe you my wife life and son life!!!"(Prince) He is a great king,he someone who uphold his promise or so. I believe he can help me...he was clever but he was too kind,I found he was tricked by the coachman that sent by his best friend. I never think his bestfriend will do that... well in the end I punish him by execute him . Of course it was without his concern. Thought it was rather tiring too go back and such... What I asked him to do was rather simple,I want him to spread tales about royal blade. Made it exaggrating but no so much...I also told him to not told anyone about hikari. He understood what I mean and told the same to the villager. Anyone told others about this will be punished even thought the villager doesn''t understand why but they agreed. This made me safe for time being...thought I also asked them a bout heroes. But in the end the information was varied...thought there was one information was the same..which is searching for a certain princess..... Really that girl...just what you do?As I sighed lightly someonebringing a lunch box was coming.. "Ezax ~~~.."(Hikari) "Magic...invisible wall.."(Ezax) Just a moment before she could touch a me a magic wall appeared..even if she moved..the wall follow her trace and stop her from touching me..in the end I forbide them to touch me over 3 days..Still It was my fault to be sleep over 2 days...I just hope they didn''t do anything weird toward me.... "Hahahaha,Ezax-sama really love them wasn''t it?"(Prince) "No I am not."(Ezax) The love he talked about was the love between man and woman. They were indeed a precious friend but no more.the same as seria I only love as her family not as a man. "MOU!!!Don''t be such a tsundere!!!"(Hikari) "You shut up!!!"(Ezax) For now I will continue to stay here until my body full recovered...Thought there was a greater concern than this..because I heard a rumour about monster in the sea...I hope it won''t attack us. After all I have my hand full with this trouble some girls....I thought that as I overview the villager do their work to rebuilt the village thought. I hope someday I can settle somewhere and enjoy my life relaxingly...there is too many wish I want really... Chapter 55 :A little night chat. After a week incident with the previous queen,the village was already safe for time being. They should be fine now. Not to mention there will be supply from killy..I believed they will be able to take care themselves. That''s why this morning we decided to depart..thought because of that I get some mount.Crocodile that big as elephant...it had great stamina....it was crocodile,I accidentaly tame it while we stay here and made good transportation. After all we can use dragon as our main..that''s why this will hasten our pace by a lot...as now we in the middle of mountain and was taking a break...I decided to not tell everyone about it and instead bring Hikari to separated place.. Then once I look around so no one heard about us...I immediatelyasked with serious face...but then her reaction made me amazed.As she said this with a cheerful tone.. "Ezax,please be gentle !!!This is my first time!!"(Hikari) "NOT THAT YOU FOOL!!!"(Ezax) I hit her head with the paper fan I took from spatial ring!!!This girl!!!She was too lax!!!!As she rub her own head...I asked him with serious tone.. "Enough of joke ,tell me truthfully...or you rather me hit you again?"(Ezax) This kind of girl need to learn her lesson,if not it would be a problem if she was out of control..,,but then her face turned to be serious. "Sorry Ezax,but I can''t tell you yet..."(Hikari) "...Care to explain?"(Ezax) "I am sorry,but I can''t my power after all was seeking for by many people. Thought If you promise me one thing than I don''t mind.."(Hikari) "I refuse then."(Ezax) I know what are you scheming,that''s why I refused beforehands...hear this Hikari stunned for a moment.. "Heh?Ezax are you not interested?"(Hikari) Nod..nod nod. "HEEHH!!Ezax you are insterested right?You want to know right!!!IT WAS VERY SPECIAL POWER!!!Weren''t you interested?"(Hikari) "Well,I am just bit curious,but I can kinda predict it. It must be concerned with healing power or something,.but it wasn''t worth to trade my live over.."(Ezax) "EHH!!!I just want to marry you!!Beside our feeling is mutual why you make it so hard!!"(Hikari) My prediction was spot on,I was right but I have something to first.. "LIKE HELL MUTUAL!!!!DON''T DECIDE IT ON YOUR OWN!!!"(Ezax) "MOO!!!WHY YOU ARE TSUNDERE!!!"(Hikari) "!!WHO THE HELL WAS TSUNDERE!!!"(Ezax)This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version. I don''t know how many times this happens....Sight this girl...I really don''t understand her.... "Sight ,anyway if you didn''t want to tell me then it is fine. After all we will be still stuck together for time being."(Ezax) "I want to tell you,but I just don''t want you to hate me..."(Hikari) "Don''t worry that is impposible.."(Ezax) "Does that mean?YOu love me?"(Hikari) How the hell her brain works!!!She always think positively....I never see her gloomy or anything...a type of person that will have very long live..ah forget it...I can''t never beat this girl by arguing.. "Forget it!!"(Ezax) "Ah Ezax..please tell me~~"(Hikari) As I haste my pace,hikari immediately begin to follow me..now you think about it her healing was awesome...but I swore her pace when she approach me and help me yesterday was faster than her usual...it was not 10% times faster or anything..it was faster than that...equally twice or around my maximum speed....also the one who swings the sword mainly her...I don''t do anything special...Hikari just what are you? At night. With our pace right now,we will arrived tomorrow.. It was all thanks to the crocodile that I tamed. But in the end I grow more confused and confused..just what am I?Who is the mysterious girl?What is my power? There is still many thing that leave unanswered... "Damn It.."(Ezax) I grumbled as I flip the page...Now I was reading the book figuring out the magic spell...looks like I can learn it when I arrive at the beast continent..for now I must plan what should I do when we arrived at the beast continent...while I thinking that,someone get out of the tent...it was Eliza. "Ezax,mind we talking for a minute?"(Eliza) "Sure.."(Ezax) As I close my book we begin to sit beside each other in front of bonfire... "Ezax,I want to say thank you.."(Eliza) "Why so sudden?"(Ezax) I don''t remember I doing anything that deserved her thanks for this ten days.. "It was thanks for taking care me and Hikari,Especially hikari. Because of you hikari can smile freely .."(Eliza) "Eh really?Wasn''t she happy go lucky type?"(Ezax) "Indeed hikari was like that,but she only show her realself to someone that she think important. Not to mention when she was with you she smiled more often than when she was at the castle..even her parents was rarely saw their smile.."(Eliza "Now that was rather unexpected...Eliza why you are willing to follow hikari?."(Ezax) "Pardon?"(Eliza) "How to say it,Eliza you were a knightright,I don''t know what class you belong but I believe your position was rather hight for being her personal bodyguard.?Why are you willing to abandon your position just for her sake? I rarely met someone who willing to do that...not to mention you were a girl...it was even rarer..no I never seen other people except you nor I heard about it.."(Ezax) Eliza think for a while. Then she said.. "Ezax,I know you are not interested in politic,So I can''t explain it clearly...but I can say my entire life was saved by hikari..that''s why my life is belong to her and I will help her until the end of my life."(Eliza) I guess I can understand it,after all her battle arts was severly lacking which indicating she was never taught by others..thought her battle sense was amazing. But for hikari found this kind of knight...Hikari was really lucky...it was rare to found knight that loyal as her but also strong at the same time..well to begin with her eyes was rather decent. she able to pinpoint which people were good or bad. "Anyway take it easy,If it is too hard you can share it with me.I will carry half of the responsibility after all I am the party leader you know."(Ezax) "Thanks Ezax..I appreciate it."(Eliza) "By the way were hikari already rock headed since she met you?"(Ezax) "Of course,Hikari was like that since beggining even the teacher was made stress by her.."(Eliza) "Really?I pity her teacher.."(Ezax) After that we only talk something else,about knight hood..Which made me understand more about Eliza..,well partying wasn''t a bad thing I guess? The next morning... When we arrived at the city ,we found that the city have heavy security near the gate...Weird..the security was too heavy compared to my last visit...rather it was weird. As we watched this a paper flew to us and cover my face...damn it..this is bounty huh. as I check it..it was a paper contain a picture of someone...but when I check it.. "....Fuck..It was faster tEzax) It is hikari bounty....goddamit. There is only way to enter the beast continent which by ride boat from this city...now what should I do? Chapter 56:Stealing the holy sword. "Shall we sold her out?The reward was really big wasn''t it?"(Seria) It was Seria first reaction when she saw this paper,She was serious...The reward..it was worth10 thousand gold..This reward..it was like SS rank quest reward. Usually it was certain kind of impossible request and was need of 10.000 adventurer to complete this quest usually.Wasn''t this too much...?The kingdom was not a big one...usually no people willing to go this far just 1 girl.As I thinking of all that I noticed hikari and seria was arguing with each other......you guys...don''t you understand the weight of our situations? "What do you think we should do?"(Eliza) "The situations was far more grave than I though. Looks like the hero was interested In hikari and want to get her no matter what.Just why he willing to go this far."(Ezax) "Hero,I don''t like him...the way he used his position for his own benefit.there is no honor in it."(Eliza) "Well,ignoring that for now,Eliza do you think we can disguise hikari?"(Ezax) "That is possible..but I never learn art of disguise,how about you Ezax."(Eliza) "Me neither,after all I can escape my pursuer just fine."(Ezax) As we were wonder about this,Kagome the pixie who nearly never talked to us finally opened her mouth. "Master ,I believe Titania-san able to do some camouflage magic,which able to hide hikari from other people perspective..."(Kagome) "Hmm...Well I guess ask titania after this..."(Ezax) After all she also participated in cat fight between hikari and seria..Both of them...can they just get along?Forget about them for a moment.. "Kagome,Do you still don''t trust me?"(Ezax) The reason kagome never opened her mouth was mostly because she was still wary of us...Well I can bit understand it..after all we only treat themas toy...even thought I don''t want to admit it...but human was wrong. So I won''t blame her...But her answer made me bit happy. "I trust you..but only a little."(Kagome) My effort was finally bear a fruit huh.. Well I won''t hurry..after all It was not easy to heal a wounded heart... Because waiting for them was a pain,I told eliza that I willcheck the situations for a bit. Of course I already make sure they won''t follow me. I am also brought kagome with me and told Titania to hide herself..I don''t want any of them attacked because the people greed for the pixie and fairy. Kagome was hiding in my pocket with her heads pop out. Once I arrived at the airport...I immediately go to the sailor guild which belonged to both of human and beastmen race.The one who take care of it was a certain kind of old man,He is my acquaintance... The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation."Oh ,little boy!!!It was rare for y!!!"(Old man) "Old man don''t call me little boy!!"(Ezax) "Hahahaha!!!Like always!!So What''s the reason you come here?Ezax.."(Old man) "Old man can you arrange me a ship to the beast continent???"(Ezax) "Heh?Didn''t you say you won''t return to the best continent?"(Old man) "Some circumstance force me.."(Ezax) "....Hmm,Ezax..want to talk inside?"(Old man) "Please do so."(Ezax) Old man was bit understanding.. as He guide me...To a private room,I begin to told him everything.....The first words he said...at the same time he facepalmed... "Hey,hey are you saying the one who create this huge trouble was you?"(Old man) "Well yes...so old man can you help us this one?"(Ezax) "Really ezax,you said you don''t want to involved in royalty anymore...and yet you was in the same party...do you know it was a huge ruckus at our side because of you?"(Old man) "Blame on hikari,not me..it was her the one that cause all of this."(Ezax) As silent sweeped across the room finally old man sighed..and then he said. "Well,I will able to do it somehow...but Ezax it was the first time you party with someone...Never in my life I will saw you party with anyone except her.You changed Ezax..it is only 3 month since we met last time and you changed ."(Old man) "Was that a bad thing?"(Ezax) The old man immediately laughed heartedly and then said... "Nope it was superfine!!!anyway I think I had suited ship for you. Please come over tomorrow night your ship will be ready at that time you arrived.."(Old man) "Sorry old man for the incovenience.."(Ezax) "It was fine ,This the least thing I can do for royal blade-sama.."(Old man) Old man then begin to laugh heartedly....Well this is a good thing. As I exited the guild,I immediately stretch myself... "Master what are we going to do now?"(Kagome) " I was worried about everyone else at the outside of this city.So let''s go back."(Ezax) As I thought that....someone poke my shirt..hm?as I turn around I noticed the girl was poking at me..She had silver hair like like hikari but her eyes were crimson. She wear a white gothic lolita with some gray color mixed between it...as I thought that I ask her.. "Little girl are you lost?"(Ezax) She only shake her heads..If she wasn''t lost then.. "You want to play with me?"(Ezax) She also shake her head..Hmm then what? "Fafnir...want to meet.."(Little girl) She said that as she pointed at me? What?As I was confused how this girl know fafnir. But then fafnir who noticed this.. "WHAT THE !!!Ezax you are so lucky!!!"(Fafnir) "What are you talking about?"(Ezax) As I suddenly let out voice outside of mind,the little girl only tilts her little head...and then fafnir only said one in my heart.. "EZAX KIDNAP HER NOW!!!YOU WILL REGRET IF YOU DON''T!!"(Fafnir) Hear this in my heart,I open my mouth as I can''t believe it while one by one dragon mock fafnir...no it was the truth...so it wasn''t a mock either...after all surely they will lead the same result as me.. "Pedobear."(Tiamat) "Pervert.."(Leviathan) "Lolicon...."(Brionac) "Pedophil."(Typhon) "Trash."(Bahamut) "Don''t go near me !!(Kulshedra) Auch this is hurt..But you reap what you sow .Lolicon dragon...Hear all of our reaction fafnir then begin to cry bitterly.. "Au......It wasn''t because of that...please believe me.."(Fafnir) Looks like fafnir was on verge being broken...well who cares about this lolicon....As I think all of that...the girl keep poking on me.. "Fafnir...talk?"(Little girl) "Little girl,I don''t know who are you talking about..My name Is Ezax not fafnir. you are making mistake here.."(Ezax) Hear my respond the girl only shake her head..Then she point on me.. "Fafnir...sure of it.Fafnir...talking.."(Little of girl) Just what is this girl saying?as I thought that.Fafnir said with a wise voice... "Ezax,She is the legendary holy sword of the legend !!!Excalibur!! Or Exca for short. He is the legendary sword that said belong to the hero!!!I believe he is the sword that hero used right now.."(Fafnir) Hear this everyone immediately!!! "GO!!!TAKE HER AWAY!!!"(TIamat) "I agree!!With this we will weaken our enemy while we become stronger at the same time...."(Typhon) "She will follow us if she know fafnir. This is a good chance for making an enemy as an ally."(Brionac) "GO!!!TAKE THIS CUTE LITTLE GIRL FOR ME!!"(Leviathan) "Will she be my little sister?"(Kulshedra) "...Do as you as fit..but I believe fafnir was right."(Bahamut) you guys know kidnapping a child was crime right?Well If let this out I doubt it will end with simple tease..while I thinking that at my heart..the little girl ask me ..as she look at me with adorable eyes....she asked. "Bringme..fafnir....adventure together .. again...petty please?"(Little girl) I am not human if I can resist her adorable eyes....that''s why I am ended up kidnapping her...sorry the hero...looks like even the legendary sword choose me... Chapter 57:Pact or not? "Excal...Holy sword."(Excal) The little girl introduced herself to everyone...Thought all of them were stunned..But soon Hikari who come already recovered from that and hug the little girl passionately.. "What a cute girl!!"(Hikari) Hikari begin to pant pant this girl..l..don''t tell me she was also a lolicon?Her face also begin to grow red....This girl..... "Excal please call him dad-"(Hikari) Smack* My fist landed on top of her head.this girl...let''s pull her before any harrasment done by her..but still even thought I pulled her away from excal,hikari still smiling toward excal while wave her hands..which made excal tilt her head... "GOOD JOB EXAX!!!DON''T LET ANYONE SULLIED MY BEAUTIFUL LITTLE DAUGHTER!!!"(Fafnir) With full of vigor someone shout inside my heart which made rather pissed off. "Go Shut up..."(Ezax) He immediately felt down and didn''t say for a moment... "Serve you right."(Everyone else) Really?Can you guys talk?But I have no energy to refute..as I thought someone tap my shoulder.. "Brother I want a kid!If possible I want to have 10 kids with all of have black hair!!!IF possible all of were female.!!"(Seria) Seria looked at me with sparkly eyes and full of hope...this girl...Smack!!!!As I dragged both of them,Someone who is have enough common sense...finally return to her sense.. "Ezax...thi s girl...she was the famous excalibur right?"(Eiza)A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation. Finally someone that had common sense.... 3 hours later... After I explained she were the famous excalibur,Seria regain her sanity..and begin to ask me about it. Now we were sitting in front of bonfire... "Am I in heaven..."(Hikari) Hikari said that as her face was seriously in heaven with excal on her lap....While Seria was puffed her cheek and pouted...She was jealous huh...can''t be helped...hikari was flat while you have the normal one which made Excal troubled when her head touch yours...of course I didn''st say this aloud...While Eliza who listened to my explantion asked in worried tone.. "Ezax,I am worried if you were targeted by the hero..It was already hard for usbecause he targeted hikari and yet now this sword of his were stolen...do you know even if hero had limited authority?the reason we can walk freely mainly because of that...now with the sword stolen many kingdom that associate with the heroes will begin to search for excal..after that sword was the sword that The previous hero used!!The one that ended the war between races!!A power that can shake the world!!It will be a huge flaw for us because we stole it from the hero!!!After all the hero was chosen by THe sword itself.."(Eliza) "No one...I choose.."(Excal) Excal who silently the whole time,Opened her mouth..What does she means? "He...Force me....me..Nothing..."(Excal) This I don''t understand what she is saying.. "Excal-sama are you saying,that you chosen no one yet?If yes then why you were awake?"(Eliza) HOw the fuck you understand it?So does it mean she didn''t choose the hero?As I thought that she pointed at me withUsual emotionless face.... "Fafnir...alive..meet....him...again..reason ..me..wake up.."(Excal) Excal said that as she stand from Hikari lap..and then look at me expressionless as always......fafnir who saw this summon himself in chibi form and then excal who saw this...immediately begin to cry.. "Fafnir....sorry...can''t protect.."(Excal) "It''s fine...beside I am still here wasn''t I?"(Fafnir) "Hiks..."(Excal) Saw this heart warming scene no one dare to ruin the mood....Fafnir....just what are you???? Midnight..Once everyone asleep and I was on night watch again...Excal then said.. "Ezax....thanks.."(Excal) "What for?"(Ezax) "Fafnir...happy.."(Excal) I never expect this ...still if fafnir happy then It made me happy too guess?I said that as I take sip on hot chocolate...Then Excal said.. "Fafnir....master.."(Excal) She point at me.....then..she point at herself.. "Me...you..pact.."(Excal) "Are you saying you want to made a pack of me?"(Ezax) She nod...... "Hey,hey...I am not a human you know?You are the sword of humanity..you mustn''t be rash.."(Ezax) "Doesn''t...care....Fafnir...together...better..."(Excal) Fafnir...just what is relation you have with this little girl....and what are you?...now I am sure I know nothing about my dragon...to begin with..I don''t know what is dragon...why each of them was already reside within us?As I was still confused...Excal tug my shirt... "Unwilling?"(Excal) Made a pact or not?If I made a pack,indeed I can become hero...and hikari won''t be targeted anymore...it will also made our alliance with other nations easier...but...TO be honest ..I don''t like to become hero...after all I am not that righteous...I just want to end this war and relax the whole of my life....but I did I have a choice? Chapter 58:Testing dual wield.. "Excal,are you sure about this?You don''t know anything about me I believe it is too soon for us to make a pact.."(Ezax) "...no...pact..please.."(Excal) "Why you so persistent about it?It wasn''t like I am going to abandon you or anything..."(Ezax) "Pack!!''(Excal) She begin to get angry and pulled my hands...She also puffed her cheek while doing that..even thought her expression was still emotionless..... "You...fafnir ......princess.....Elaine...pact...."(Excal) What is she talking about?I don''t understand...As I wonder about this..fafnir said . "It implied hikari was Elaine someone I know in the past..Seeing you and Hikari remind her a lot about the past where we used to be adventuring together..that''s why she want to make a pact.."(Fafnir) How the hell you translate it?that is not important for now.....I must persuade her first.. "Excal...You know I am not an hero...I am not someone that righteousness or anything...I believe I can''t use your power at right path...maybe I will even use you to slaughter my human they were become enemy....if they become my enemy I will deal with them.Once they were enemy I won''t bother protecting them.....I will be merciless devil..."(Ezax) It is policy I got when I participated in the war..hesitation will bring big disaster. Like in the war just because she is the step sister of the beast princess...I hesitate...In the end it lead to another big rebellion..that''s was why I promise to kill the enemy I think pose the threat...even thought it won''t look good in front of others....hear this Excal shake her head.. "Fact... kind.."(Excal) "Me kind?You must be joking on me.."(Ezax) "Embarrassed...admit.."(Excal) "Think as you like...To be honest I think I am not worth of it...after all even if I got your power It will only made me to protect people that I care about.."(Ezax) "Fine...as it...you...I..like...better.......pact...Please?"(Excal) She didn''t budge huh?In the end girl around me was someone that hard headed....Well if they weren''t like that then they wouldn''t follow me I guess....even If ended as trash...as long I can protect my sister and my friend..I won''t mind...that''s why..The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. "Okay I accept.."(Ezax) "Thanks.."(Excal) Narrator POV At the morning hikari was the one who first wake up it was already for her if she was not on her night watch and Ezax was on night watch...she will observe him training without he noticing...observing a hardoworking man was cool after all...or not...when she wake up...she noticed Ezax was holding a white short sword with many red line spread and form many branch along the edge. It also shine vividly with red color...then..suddenly its length and size also changed....freely changes the length...the power of living legendary weapon..the pride of humanity..excalibur.As she secretly observing he noticed a chibi dragon was accross him..She also finally noticed Ezax hold another sword at its right hand.. "...This absurd..."(Fafnir) "Whatdo you think?I think made my sword stile become dual sword style was better right?"(Ezax) "Don''t be absurd...I only know how to handle one swords...even me never handle 2 swords before.."(Fafnir) "...Useless.."(Ezax) "Don''t expect impossible from me!!beside for you to wield 2 swords it was already absurd enought...there is never in history people able to use two swords like you..because of that there is not suitable battle arts that you can use!!fighting without battle arts are you crazy?"(Fafnir) "But fafnir..can I just created it by myself?"(Ezax) Hear ezax answer nonchalantly.. "Don''t be absurd!!!For you to created a battle arts it need around 10 years!!!what''s more it just basic level!!!I know dual swords fit you more because you can split your mind but with no battle arts it will be useless..even basic battle arts multiply your strength by 1.5 times....do you know master level can even multiply your strength 10 times at least!!"(Fafnir) "But fafnir can I just use single battle arts at both of sword?won''t that improve the effeciency!!!"(Ezax) Fafnir roared at ezax full of anger.. "DON"T BE absurd!!!the trajectory will clash with each other!!!!It will lead only to incident!!anyway forget about using 2 swords at same time!!!beside you don''t need to change your style ...I also learned how to use excal you know!!"(Fafnir) "I thought it was good idea,after all both excal and the sword I got when I with hikari were the best sword I eveer used..that''s why I was thinking to use both of them.."(Ezax) "Can you just switch it out in the middle of battle?"(Fafnir) "Can''t do....it will be just a waste of good weapon then...Sight.how about the others?."(Ezax) Suddenly another dragon in chibi form appeared..this time it was jet black dragon.. "Just give it up...even in my case there is no such battle arts exist in dragoon either.."(Bahamut) "Even you bahamut?..I believe no others know it then.sight."(Ezax) After a moment silent...ezax hung his head in despair...Hikari who saw this know ezax was serious.maybe he will try to learn in it free time..but...If she can''t help him then she wasn''t worth as his future wife and then hikari show herself.. "Oh hikari..it is rare for you to wake up so early.."(Ezax) As soon as ezax said that..all of dragon become alert....but then her words surprised themthe most.. "Ezax...do you want to learned it?Dual wield battle arts of sword?"(Hikari) "...what?"(Ezax) "You...dual swords battle arts didn''t exist!!!even me never heard about it even among the other races..."(Fafnir) "I don''t have any proof...but sure I know about it...also known as divine battle arts.."(hikari) Bahamut and fafnir both of them become wary of hikari... "Divine battle arts....that was battle arts that lost in history..even in me...no one know it exist...just who are you..human girl?"(Bahamut) "I...Hikari...can''t disclose it to you..please understand...fafnir human dragon god..or...fafnir the fallen hero?"(Hikari) Fafnir surprised hear this...but Ezax was far more shocked.....because it was clearly it was because ... "If I may ask...who are you?"(Ezax) "So you noticed....Sorry..but such information...well you can say I borrow her body for a bit.....After all I am 10 years old years old."(Hikari) 10 thousand...years old.. "WHAT!!!?"(Ezax) Chapter 58:Daily routine. "Just what are you to life 10.000 years old?"(Ezax) "Hehehehe..If I said it then Hikari secret will be found out,beside I won''t answer your question yet...you are still to weak to know the truth.."(??????) As she said that she also giggled at the same..still even thought she act relaxed..I realize she was watching me all of my movement and fafnir and bahmut fafnir movement at the same time..While all of the dragon inside of me grew restless.... "Don''t need to worry,I won''t do anything...anyway boy do you want me to teach you dual wield from me?"(?????) "Ezax,Don''t trust her rather...she is someone that you can''t trust...she hide something from you.."(Fafnir) "I agree with fafnir...you mustn''t trust her.."(Bahamut) as both of them answered all of my dragon answered in order. "Ezax,don''t trust her...."(Tiamat) "She tells so many lies...Too many lies..it was proof that she was a liar."(Brionac) "Old hag can''t be trusted!!"(Typhon) "Old fox."(Leviathan) "Uwah!!calm down please.."(Kulshedra) Only kulshedra reaction was the unique one....as she was panicking. well I understand all of them.....but.. "If you are willing...will you teach me about this?The Divine arts.."(Ezax) "EZAX!!!"(ALL of the dragon) "Everyone but I can''t be picky with my method to grow stronger...beside...I don''t see any reason for her to trick on us or anything...and..Someone that Hikari trust can be bad person..."(Ezax) Even thought that girl was stupid on inside..she have sharp eyes and can''t be easily tricked..that''s why I doubt she will trust stranger...Hear my answer she immediately laughed while holding her stomach...was I say something funny? "Yes,yes I understand...sorry I just can''t hold my back laughing after all of that......"(??????) Then once she regain her composure she said.. "As Hikari said,you are really a dense person...Really I am rather amazed how straight foward you are .."(??????? "Umm I think the dense part was a mistake .."(Ezax) "no,you are realy dense."(Everyone) "I am not!!!"(Ezax) I am not dense!!!!!Why they don''t understand it!!goddamit!!!! "Anyway fafnir,bahamut you are mistaken if I didn''t know anything about you...regarding your guys secret...I know it too.Don''t interfree okay?"(???????) Bahamut and fafnir clicked both of their tongoue and then returned to inside of my body...The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. "Oh my ,they finally trust me.."(?????) ...Trust my ass..it was seriously goddamn threat.. A shameless woman...as expected of Hikari''s friend. after that she break some branches and then pass it to me... "Now shall we start?"(?????) "Eh?really ?there is only around a 30 minutes before everyone wake up doesn''t it?"(Ezax) She immediately vanish and then appeared in front of me at the same time hit on my head.. ...Dammit it was painful.. "Now,now do as your big sisterr told!!"(Big sister) "Heh?Big sister????Don''t you feel embarrased with your own age?I mean it was childish.."(Ezax) Snap...then she hit me again.. "Call me big sister okay!!!I will repeat it 10 times.."(BIg sister) Please stop hitting me...I mean why it was so painful!!!goddamit!!!!You don''t need to repeat thit me...AW!!! 30 minutes later.. "Hey hikari,can you bit more gentler?"(Ezax) "Bear with it,beside it is your fault to mention woman age..Learn to be considerate okay?"(Hikari) Hikari give me first aid treatment..the reason why she do this was because the ol-ehm.big sister want me to remember the pain...by doing this I can learn faster..if there is no risk a person often learn slower...that''s why she do this and also the pain will made me learn to strive to the better...she was inhuman to begin with...to think she can beat me easil with just branch...what she do to the branch anyway? "Anyway Ezax you got anything from big sister swords?"(Hikari) "A bit,after all for her to using double feint with the both of swords..she was really strong.."(Ezax) "I see,you are lucky then..while big sis teach me magic..she often told me to exhaust my mana as fast as I can .."(Hikari) "...I see..both of us are suffering from the same person...."(Ezax) well she sleep the most day,I doubt she will listen to us.... "Oni-sama..good mor-....uh..what is this shameless girl doing on my oni-sama."(Seria) Hikari then begin to puffed her cheek. "I told you to call me sister!!!I am your brother future wife !!!"(Hikari) "No way!!!Oni-sama are mine!!!"(Seria) And they begin to arguing like always...because I am get used to it ,I leave them arguing while preparing the breakfast....at the same Eliza also woke up and still rubbing her eyes.. "Morning..."(Eliza) "Good morning,Wash your face and then help me prepare breakfast.."(Ezax) "Yes~~"(Eliza) This our daily routine,well now my daily routine had training with big sister...still who was she?Her strength was ridiculous..even all of my dragoon said her strength was beyond S ranker..higher 2 grade than that...by the way excalibur was sleeping in the tent..before big sister beat me up,fafnir appeared and then carry her back to the tent...titania and kagome will woke up later...well my life these days ...it wasn''t lonely as before. even thought I am getting annoyed sometime..I guess I like this kind of live better..while I thought that some branch was flying and hit my head.. "Quit dodging you BRO-CON!!!"(Hikari) "I see not only your chest flat.you also slow..as expected of Flat chess princess!!!!!" (Seria) ....I take it back...this kind of live is more worse....Because they were only a problem child to me!!!!except eliza who behave now......rather. "BOTH OF YOU!!!CAN YOU JUST BEHAVE!!!"(Ezax) I don''t understand why you hate each other so much..are you cat and dog?when I try to stop them someone is coming...who?As I thought that someone appeared.. "Oh old man,you surprised me..I think it was bear or anything.."(Ezax) "So rude..well was this your party Ezax?It was kind..lively you know?"(Old man) "Ignore them..so what makes you come here.."(Ezax) "Right,Ezax can you help us the citizen ?"(Old man) "What do you mean old man?"(Ezax) "It was hard to tell..but now the hero was rampaging around the city..searching every nook.."(Old man) Ah...looks like the reason was.. "Someone stole the hero excalibur and now he was rampaging at the whole town..and destroy many people house..especially he kills some people....."(Old man) for him to become like this.it made me disgusted ..what kind hero of this...based on Excal I know he was kind of pervert and arrogant..but I never know he was like this too ..no wonder..excal wanted to follow me no matter what.. "So Ezax,no adventurer wants to fight him because hero status....still can you help us?the way of he search was..devastating to us."(Old man) "Understood old man..I will help."(Ezax) "Sorry ezax..I don''t have anyone that dare to do this except you.."(Old man) "Nah,it''s fine..beside you also agreed my absurd request..now eve-"(Ezax) Partially it was my fault too..that''s why I felt a bit responsible for this..then both of the cat and dog who is fighting suddenly standing beside me.. "Okay it''s decided!!We will kick this hero ass!!"(Hikari) "Oni-sama !!Show him who is the boss!!"(Seria) ..You two....Sometimes you get along..sometimes you don''t...woman sure are mysterious being...sight.... "Umm..can anyone explain what is happening to me?"(Eliza) "...Ezax..don''t tell me other than you the whole party is girl?"(Old man) "Pretty much an old man ..why you ask that?"(Ezax) "You guys are really water and oil aren''t you?"(Old man) "What do you mean by that?"(Ezax) "You will understand when you meet hero party.."(Old man) ?????????....well I guess I will know about this when this happen? Chapter 59:Meet with the hero? When we arrived I found many of the house were destroyed..some people was found dead . Be it child or a woman..no one spared...saw this I grit my teeth and then I asked old man.. "Hey old man,prepare the best funeralfor them.."(Ezax) Hear this old man dumbstruck..but he immediately nod and go. In this world it was not cheap to do funeral..it will cost several gold for 1 person...for this kind of massacre it will cost 20 gold at least. I am not someone heartless,but rather it was my fault for this happen. I took lightly at this hero... "Everyone don''t interfree..I will finish them of my own.Especially you hikari if you can please cover your face with this hood and don''t talk. It will be a huge mess if everyone know about it."(Ezax) "Understood."(Hikari) "What about you oni-samabrother?You are not type that like appear in public right?"(Seria) "Don''t worry about me,I have this.."(Ezax) As I take out the mask I usually used..hikari clap both of her hands as she recognize it,while Eliza saw this immediately dumbstruck..while seria said.. "Lame!!"(Seria) "Seriously!!!It was cool you know!!!"(Ezax) "Lame is lame~~ Well maybe because of that it was nice no one pursued you because love at first sight.."(Seria) "...."(Ezax) -_-...well fine..while Eliza was still 0-0....seriously why you are surprised.. "Anyway don''t interfree okay?I will finish them on my own..well if something happen out of my control then help me okay?"(Ezax) Just to make the innocent people safe,I play safe. "Understood!!"(Everyone) Excal did you hear me? Once I made a contract with excal,she can reside in my hands..and by speaking this in mind and focus toward her she will replied.. She can appear on her own which is the problem that''s why I want to stop her before doing so..but what I heard.. "Zzzz.."(Excal) she is still sleeping..well can''t be helped..she sleep late last night not to mention she was tired by making a pack with me...well for now this emblem is too much..too showy..while I thought that someone poke my shoulder once I noticed it was hikari and told me to go into the corner..The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. "Big sister wanted to speak with you."(Hikari) !!! Immediately we go into the corner so no one heard us and then she possesed Hikari body . "Ezax,do you have any spare swordwith you?a fingerless glove?the best one for the glove and the worst one for the blade."(Big sister) "Well I have it...it was iron rusty sword...about the fingerless glove..I only have glove that was given to me when I get royal blade title."(Ezax) "Give it to me. Hurry we have no time.."(Big sister) Immediately I take out the gloves that made the same material as my cloak and give it to her. Of course I also equip the cloak at the same time..once she do that she throw the gloves to the sky and then at time same time she made blade of light and slice the glove...when it landed on her palm..the gloves already become fingerless glove..holy....this is from the best material...yet she able easily to cut in the sky? "Grab both of the sword with this equipped."(Big sister) "Okay.."(Ezax) Once I do that..I felt bit sluggish..not getting used to it maybe was the right one. "You are the type that like holding blade with hands,in short and easy battle it will be fine but in long battle it will disaster. Once your palm become sweaty it will made you hard to grip the sword handle and lead into disaster even thought you are not amateur sometimes mistakes can happened..but with normal gloves.. you won''t feel the sword handle enough and will made a bit shift when fight in long battle because you don''t notice your grip loosen by a bit... That''s why remember the handle sensation using your finger and you must keep have that sensation when grip the handle of sword!!!I will not forgive any loosen on the grip!!!even if it was because you defending attack that stronger than you!!. Also no wound were allowed at your finger!!! if you lost the finger how can you wield the sword?that''s why be careful when you are defending!!The reason I tell you to use rusty iron sword is to make sure you know the sword you have in the both of hand were different and you shoudn''t use the rusty iron sword to defend only use it attack!!!Let me tell you even rusty iron sword can kill people if you put enough of it!!! If you able to do it then I will teach you the battle arts...once you able to do that,I will put another requirement on you. So be prepared!!!"(Big sister) "Understood!!!"(Ezax) When they heard that Fafnir was surprised. "She was right,loosen grip even by a bit will affect your strength in swing. by increase the grip strength it will ensure your swing strength. To be able to see your bad habit to loosen your grip when defending..she was really a master."(Fafnir) .....Really?I don''t notice that?certainly my strength diminish by a bit when I defending.....well enough of that.. I equip the mask and then we continued to walk.as we walk we noticed no one survived..this is too much.I won''t forgive him..as we begin to hasten our pace by running we finally catch up with the hero burning the house... "Goddamit shit!!!!In the end we didn''t found the sword that we stole!!!"(Bandit) ....wait?Stolen? "In the end ,even if we tried our best to cosplay as the hero party it will be useless if we don''t have the excalibur with us!!"(Bandit 2) ...I see...then I won''t be polite. As I take out my staff I cast water spell and put the flame out once I do that..I put staff at my back and then equip both of the sword at my hands and started go toward them. There are only 5 people ..but just at the same time I begin run.. "Ezax deal with them in 3 slash!!!if you are going more than that then I will be angry!!"(Big sister)) ......fuck !!!Are you kidding me?!! As I do it with rusty iron sword I severed the person that holding staff and looked like he was magician....well enough of that.. "This guy!!!He is dual wielding!!!"(Bandit 1) "he is insane !!KILL HIM!!!"(Bandit 2) Immediately 2 of them using sword and spear approach me..but I parry the sword using my right hand that using the mithril sword and then push her away to side and made him crashed with the one that use spear..once I do that I thrust my rusty iron sword to the sword guy and continue to do so until it pierced the head of the spear guy...once I do that I noticed the sword stuck..shit...there is another guy with a sword aiming behind me....but I do a reverse someassault and his chin while pulled the rusty iron sword at the same time...and then with the mithril sword I severed the other guy heads...leaves with only 1 guy piss his panth of and have the best armor among them.. "Now..tell me how I should kill you?"(Ezax) "Please !!!!Don''t kill me!!!!!!!!!"(Bandit 2) "You think I will let you survive?"(Ezax) As I prepared my sword... "STOP IT!!!"(????) Someone with the clothes similar to the bandit appeared.. "I won''t forgive useless killing!!!Cease this at once!!Even thought he is vile person there is no need for you to kill him!!!There is no justice killing people who didn''t put any resistance!!!"(Hero) ...this hero.....I hate this kind of people the most. Chapter 60:Hero=Trash. "Please stop the useless killing!!!No matter how scum he be!!he can be reformed!!!"(Hero) The hero declared that while pointing at me...... "Are you blind?After all of that you said they can be changed?"(Ezax) Some people can be changed..but this kind of people were beyond redemption. No matter what he do he can''t changed this person.because he is ignorant about this world..someone pampered at his house never felt any shortcoming anything.....It can be seen from his way of talking...especially his way of standing..this guy disgust me the most....Well thought it is better to leave this guy alone..for now..as I immediately turn because I didn''t plan to involved any futher..beside the bandit already lost his will to fight..there is no need for myself to fight any futher.. "Wait!!!"(Hero) "What?"(Ezax) "You are the legendary royal blade right?Also the strongest right?"(Hero) "Yes?What do you want from me?"(Ezax) After all I were wearing the clothes that show myself as Royal blade...even thought it have good defense.. "Strongest?Only his talent."(Big sister) Big sister murmur something that I can''t hear. ...can you see the hero was in front of us and I didn''t plan to continue fighting this kind of trash. "I heard you are the youngest S rank adventurer at the same always solo...never trust anyone but has power to end of the war....Everyone praised you as the strongest hero....but in the end you are just money monger..You asking money everytime for person you help...you also used war to gain money......."(Hero) Seria was agitated,the reason I know she was like that was because I can feel her killing intent . but I raise my hand to sign her not to do anything...everyone also angry...but it''s fine because I don''t feel any shame by doing it. After all I was desperate to save money for saving seria...thought there is no need for that anymore that''s why I stopped. "Someone who were greedy for money doesn''t deserve praise from beastmen and its soldier....you doesn''t deserve to be Royal blade to begin with!!!Someone you doesn''t deserved to be called Hero by the people!!You were only cool blooded murderer!!!!"(Hero) "What''s wrong with that?"(Ezax) "what''s wrong?Everything is wrong with it!!!!You shouldn''t ask for money for people you saved!!!!!!"(Hero) "That''s is something hero would do,I am not fed with silver spoon like you."(Ezax) "What!!"(Hero)Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions. "I need money and I will do whatever I want to get it. Well it wasn''t like some noble will understand."(Ezax) "YoU!!!"(Hero) "Hero,If your talk done then can I go?Unlike you I don''t have free time."(Ezax) He immediately folded his arm and act so high... "Hmm!!!Only royal blade yet to act so cocky to the one who will save the world.?"(Hero) "Yes,yes so can I go now?"(Ezax) It will be only waste of breath to speak with him anyway..I better get going.... "Give me all of you money I will return it to people you take."(Hero) "There is no way I give my money for an hero that is only hero in appearance..or a trash was more be fitting..."(Ezax) This guy are nuts..I never see someone being spoiled like this....well to begin with huma noble sistem was flawed to begin with..the other nation aren''t ...all of them were arrogant..they are nothing more than a shit. "You!!!!!Act so arrogant!!!!!!even thought your talent was below mine!!"(Hero) "Talent?How old are you ?Still act like a child."(Ezax) "Don''t you Know?I am 17 years old and were already rank A adventurer!!!!!I am also master at magic!!!"(Hero) "Trash.you are just fed by using kill steal method..yet act so haughty. someone you doesn''t deserve any attention.."(Ezax) Kill steal,by giving the last hit to someone he will gain half of the experience..this only method that noble used for their own convenience. The result of that their strength were below average..it only look good outisde..but trash inside....that''s why I never do this method.... "You!!!Even thought you act 35 years old you act so mighty!!!!!Hmm!!You only envy my talent in the end!!!"(Hero) Sight I lost my will to this hard headed Idiot. someone like this can''t do anything..to be fed with silver spoon sure was a good thing. I don''t need to worry him being hindrance to me.but before I go familiar voice resounded. "Hero?If my master are trash then what are you?Trash of trash?King of trash?Shit of trash?Ah who cares about that!!I am in good mood today so go away...you only make trashy scene become more trashy!!!!!Shoo!!!"(??????) A knight wear a full armor plate and hold Spear was appeared. He had green eyes and had rather handsome space the only minus is he words was not nice in slightest..well that''s why he fit stay in beastman country where trash talk is common..While he was loyalt and being carefree made him the best mood maker. Granted title emerald spearman because his achievement on par with the flash fencer or shiro ...the second student at war..his name is.. "Yo,Gale It was nice to see you.."(Ezax) "Master!!!!!!!!I am rank A middle now!!!"(Gale) "See?you can do it if you try right!!!"(Ezax) "It is thanks to master teaching!!"(Gale) He give me thumbs up!!This guy...he didn''t change since we parted...Now I am kinda want to meet the other 2.. thought I wonder where they are....well.. "Well Gale why you are here?"(Ezax) "Hmm?I just plan to send a letter to shiro and then returned to beast continent for training. Because of the ruckus guide me here and I can see you master!!!please teach me master!!!"(Gale) To sum it up gale was a kid,a pure kid...thought only to me and my other student. TO other people..you can say he treated them like a trash or stepping stone if it was a noble or something similar like that...to commoner...he was kind of person that treat person equally...thought I think he often slack off..if not he will be A rank high now....if he doing all of my training regiment..His other weakness is...his compression of martial arts...was really really low...well with his sense he don''t need it. "Anyway master let''s ignore that trash!!!!!!Let''s chat somewhere else!!"(Gale) See what I mean? "!!!You!!!YOU!!!HOW DARE YOU TO MOCK ME!!!"(Hero) "Hero!!"(Party mate) "Gale move aside."(Ezax) "Understood.Please kick his ass master!!"(Gale) Immediately gale move aside as I prepared both of my sword. The hero was using a sword and want to cut me vertically..but I parry it with my mithril blade and then with my rusted iron sword flat side I hit his head then once I do that he passed out...well of course he passed out..I hit him with all of my power..I hope he turned crazy with this...after all it is not time to make any conflict with hero yet...not until I have beast king support. "Anyway master ?Why you here?"(Gale) "Let''s talk it somewhere first and can you tie one of the bandit and also the rest of corpse?"(Ezax) "Hmm?Sure sure ~~~ It was as usual then~~"(Gale) gale I felt you are more fitting to be a beastmen than a human..well the result today was quite good...The bandit quite have some money...the hero too. It is basic knowledge too loot what you can loot.....Well some peope will say I am thief...thought I don''t care at all...well with this experience I can sum it.. Hero=trash. Chapter 61:Idiot hero. "Nice too meet you all ,my Name Is gale kyrios!!I am Master little brother !!!please take care of me!!!!Still Master!!!!You really have good eye!!!To have an ha-"(Gale) I jump and then hit his head on the spot,as usual he always missunderstand.....That''s why I hit him before he make quite awkward remark like usual.......still even thought I explain it,He only say he understand ,he understand....day by day you growing being idiot.. "Don''t mind don''t mind Ezax just embarrased!!!"(Hikari) Smack. This girl also the same...But Neither Eliza and Seria refute..seria only nod as he understand it...while Eliza mumbling something that I can''t heard it..oh well forget it...once his self introduction over.. "Anyway please take care of me!!!If you want to ask anything about master fetishanything he likes as guy then please ask me!!"(Gale) "I don''t haveany kind of fetish!!"(Ezax) "Ah master,You are guy there is no need for embarrased!!"(Gale) "Want me to beat you up?"(Ezax) "Sure!!!I always want to spar with you!!!"(Gale) I give up,THis guy is indeed battle maniac...thought he was like that...he was not an Idiot...althought he is bit rash and easy to angered..but he isn''t enemy...thought he isn''t good guy either...because he already begin told them about non existent fetish..I only say nice to it..nor did I like it or anything.Ignore them for now.. "Old man?Did you prepared what I asked?"(Ezax) "Yes,After all I already promised you guys I will have ship to transport you to the beast continent.."(Old man) "Thanks Old man,I owe you a lot."(Ezax) "I should be me who say that,It was already enough for you to help us commoners with free of charge...beside you also pay us for the funeral..we can''t thank you enough."(Old man) Old Man bow to me,this made me scratched my cheek...thought I will accept his thanks.. "Well keeping aside of that,That hero attitude piss me off really greatly...All he heard was rumour!!!Yet he dare to judge master!!!Doesn''t he know anything why master need money?It was for her sister sake goddamit!!!For her family!!!Yet he dare to slander people in front of many people!!!It was already counted lucky for him to have his head still intanct!!Yet he still asking for royal blade cloak?Which is master achievement for making bridge between us and beastment!!!That hero is mad man!!"(Gale)Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. "Gale ,What he said was the truth..Indeed I asking for money people I help."(Ezax) "Master!!!!!But you never force them to pay anything!!!Even a beggar you help by giving them work!!!You only took a single copper coin!!A single copper coin from the entire group of beggar!!!!Even the soldier who said being cursed or anything and was beyond saving...you willing to search cure for them and find a way to cure them!!!Yet you took only his rusted spear!!!You literraly helping people for free!!!It just you don''t want to be treated as hero that''s why asking for payment.."(Gale) "Gale,do you forgot I extort from the nobles?"(Ezax) "EXTORT MY ASS!!!They were corrupt noble!!!They corrupt the soldier money for themselves!!!I know your method wasn''t nice was only to them!!!You only ask them to return the money they spend!!!Even with that they only return half of the money!!!Yet because of that!!you ask from store and store in human continent for the cheapest and best armor!!!!Their nobility was near ended!!!!You even didn''t ask anyone to told this to anyone !!!yet they pay you with slander!!!FUCK THE NOBLES!!!Know only luxury!!!all of them can go to hell."(Gale) "It''s fine ,Gale.

Old man was really furious...but he know It won''t be right...to blame the secretary,,,,as he held his anger..he can only sit on his chair ...Even gale was really furious...not to mention everyone in the party...well me?I instead of anger..I only think the hero is an Idiot..honestly..I am not person who easily angered..that''s why I still keep calm about it......... "Anyway,standing here won''t help..follow me..I will deal with this guy..."(Ezax) "Ezax!!!Don''t!!!It is already enough!!!There is not need for royal blade like you to do more than this!!"(Old man) "Who said I will do this guy as royal blade?"(Ezax) I am not an Idiot...but still I will keep him on his places...

"Now!!!!My people!!!we must re capture the bandit that was let escape by the hero!!!We mustn''t let him run unpunished!!!"(Hero(False)) "YeS!!"(Civilian) Once the bandit recaptured,The false hero immediately let everyone handle the rest,and then he vanished in alleyway and go to the inn without anyone knowing...Once he entered the room..Everyone already waiting for him "MASTER YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!"(Gale) "...Shut it,Anyway undo my disguise titania."(Ezax) "Understood.."(Titania) Once she answered ,Ezax immediately revert to his normal appearance...once he saw this he let out breath of relief. No matter what He dislike the current appearance..it was too flashy for him. This normal clothes suit him better... "It was easier than I thought master. Was human this foolish?"(Kagome) "Well,majority of us didn''t go to school...so It can''t be helped ."(Hikari) "Still,didn''t they found it strange?I mean...they already see this scenario once right?"(Eliza) "Fufu!!it was because my brother is genius!!!after all he show them the best proof!!!!!there is no way everyone won''t believe him."(Seria) "Well the reason it go smoothly was because the hero was an Idiot...after all If I show it right once it start no one will believe me..that''s why I planned for him to say the word holy sword..and then show excalibur. Well as long the result was good I don''t care about it."(Ezax) Ezax plan was too disguise as hero and frame him. After all it was easy for him to do this with him made a pack with excalibur. Not to mention at the same time he punched the hero ,he stole the emblem from his clothes...he already observe him since he enter restaurant..and found where it was hiding..thought majority of people was speechless..but he doesn''t care...what the most important is ...the hero is captured and now undergo trial. He just hope with this the hero won''t hinder him any longer...while at the same he also remove Hikari warrant..hero really a convenient job. "Anyway change the topic master,the boat was ready and was prepared to go any time. Should we go now?"(Gale) "Ah right,let''s escape before a ruckus come,after all the hero was backed by the kingdom. It will be just a matter of time before he was set free."(Ezax) "hahaha,master was right. Anyway let''s go master."(Gale) "There is no need to repeat it. Well did you buy as I told hikari?"(Ezax) "Of course,Everything is ready!!!"(Hikari) "Seria,did you get the permit for us to go to the beast continent?"(Ezax) "Easy brother I issued ten just in case of lost it. 2 for each epople."(Seria) "Eliza,how about the ticket?"(Ezax) "I have it with me,with 5 total."(Eliza) "Good...then let''s go. To the beast continent.."(Ezax) Human continent arc ends,beastman arc started... Chapter 63:Lucky = misfortune next day. Well nothing happened in our way,which was considered lucky. After all it was common for pirate to attack us or anything similar like that. Not to mention there is strange monster that attacking ship. As we finally touch the ground of beast continent for the first time. Hikari was look around with star in her eyes. because everyone had cat ears,dog ears and many kind of thing..while Eliza have sea sickness. Seria was amazed by the size of city. "Wow,this is bigger than I thought.."(Seria) "It was normal you amazed by it. Unlike human or dragoon. Beastmen like vastness. That''s why compared to other city they were twice larger or more. "(Ezax) Seagull city. It was the name of this city. This city has been rebuilded nicely. It has nearly year since my last visit..Stil I have precaution that misfortune will fall on me..why i say this ?Because this how my luck works..once I lucky enough. I will felt into misfortune. Now as I already lucky enough at the ship ,misfortune will befall me soon. "Master,I finished checkingat guild. "(Gale) "I see,good work."(Ezax) Any humans that arrive at beastman continent need to do check in at nearest guild.The reason why it was done was rather complicated. But to sum it up it was to made human in this continent was keep control. Also It was too check the black list. Many of noble belong to this list. Thought majority of people who come here are merchant. The reason for checking was also for economic sense. It was too made sure how many merchant come here and no one do anything illegal. well with Ezax identify I can freely walk around thought..the same as gale. THought I only hope "she" was not nearby...then gale said. "By the way master,I have bad news to tell you."(Gale) "...Tell me."(Ezax) "She is here."(Gale) .....FUCK!!K!!!Oh god misfortune!!!You really give the greatest misfortune ever!!!!!!!I should get out of this city as fast I can.let''s rest at inn first.no matter how hurry I am. there is sick person at my back..thought it was only sea sickness.... "Anyway let''s get to inn first.."(Ezax) "Okay."(Everyone) The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. Once everyone arrived at inn. I let Eliza lay on bed... "Hikari,Seria . If anyone ask you about me . Please say you don''t know."(Ezax) Both of them only give ? as they don''t understand..How to explain it.. "Let''s just say ,a certain girl was pursuing Ezax. You see she fall in love with him at first sight...and Ezax can''t shake her off."(Gale) Gale replied instead of me... "Hmm?Was she princess?"(Seria) "Pretty much.."(Ezax) I will be easier if they know about her. THought I don''t know her that much...because I run away before we can meet third time....... "...hmm weird...Ezax. Why the king allowed it?I mean she was beastment princess right?No matter how talented you are...the king won''t allow it..after all you are different race not to mention..the relation beastment with human wasn''t that good...It was post war after all."(Hikari) "Sharp as always. You can say...she was unique among the beastment."(Ezax) "What do you mean Oni-sama?"(Seria) Hmm how to explain it?whatever they will understood once they met her. As I thought that I heard a song...FUCK!!!!!!Everyone don''t get-.. ....everyone already left me....FUUUUU!!!I know the song was good!!!No !!!You can say IT WAS REALLY GOOD!!!But to be honest..I wasn''t like I hate her anything...I just don''t like she bully me...If we argued..she 100% won. She is genius at politics,she is genius at studying(not at my level).She was also beautiful...her hair was blue like the sea with sapphire eyes..Her dad even given her a dress that matched her beauty will many color variant of blue...she also kind..the reason she was avoided..because she was magician..instead of fighter. THe reason she learn how to sing was because she doesn''t like battle and want soothe everyone anger or everyone think...She singing from city to city..why I avoided her you ask? She doesn''t like battle because she don''t like made herself dirty.... When she heard someone mock her...she will made their secret go out and made everyone know about it...Her brother was one of the victim. Even when she was challenged one by one by her fiance not magic allowed...she secretly use magic at her opponent before he know it and won by default.when the fiance was aimed to get her no matter what and try to cheat on her back. do you know what happen?his third leg gone!!!!!she learn how to sing to soothe everyone anger?wrong!!!she learn how to sing to please me!!!You think she learn magic that consist of bind or whatever right?You are wrong once again!!!she learn fucking attack spell!!!The highest offensive spell and spam it like there is no tomorrow at war!!!why I know this much about her magic?Because I already fight with her..if I honestly battle with only human magic..she can beat me easily..even with dragoon magic was barely win. Also unlike other beastment...pride means nothing to her. "If fox was trickster...then the trickter among trickster will belong to her..In tactic battle...I give up. I am no match of her.."(Ezax) By the way...when beastmen marry each other of different race. Their child race will belong to one of them...their father race...or their mother race. Her mother race was azure wolf...while her father is crimson lion...she was azure wolf..which was famous for fair fight..but. she never even fight fair..even when she battling me..that''s why.. "that''s why the king easily given up on her...It wasn''t like he hated her or anything...but ...she was a problem itself..that''s why by giving her to me..it was like killing 2 bird...no 3 birds with one stone..it will also too fix with human relationship at sametime."(Ezax) .That''s why..I don''t want to meet king...because I am sure when we met...he will force her engagement on me...which was ...a big trouble for me.seriously king don''t push your trouble on me!!!I have my hands full with my own troube!!! "Anyway ,I will just stay here..Hope Hikari and Seria doesn''t tell her about me or anything. I will be fine I guess."(Ezax) Soon I will realize it was a huge mistake. ...... Chapter 64:Ezax past,war with beastmen part 2(continue of part 1). As I opened the windows,I listened to her song from far away. It takes me back quite a bit.If I am not wrong...it was our first mission.. It was quite disaster at that time ..well It was logical..after all I was saying some impossible thing..conquering caste with 5 people?everyone were the same...Even gale laught at me how absurd was it....THe party was composed by a gale,shiro. WHile shiro already know me it was easy for she to trust me...but gale. he was 180 degree different....While the others 2 was also eccentric person. One the sleepy magician,or called Lux . She was a female magician even thought she was the laziest among the group on the outside...it was the reverse..she was the most diligent. She was quite beauty and won''t lose easily compared to hikari or eliza...but her personality..you can say she was maniac among magician...While the other one...If lux was maniac among maniac in magician...then he was pervert among pervert. He is not just fat...he is pig among pig...thought now he was already thin enough to see him..as handsome man. The other guy was shadow. He was the scout and archer at same time. He is a sharp person...but his negative was....he have no interest at human at other races.Except one a mermaid..his dream was to marry a mermaid...not just a single one..he want to have a harem..thought with that kind of attitude I doubt he will get one..At that time I was brought themto nearby castle of beastment... 4 Years ago. "FUCK !!!WHO THE ONE WANTED TO FOLLOW YOU!!!THIS IS CLEARLY ABUSE ORDER!!!!!!!!"(Gale) Gale curse at me,thought I ignored him...It was you who ignored me my order first and then when you see me. To people like you there is no need to act polite. Beside abuse order?What kind of blasphemy of that?I didn''t order you...I only said if you don''t follow me,then I will make sure you lost your third leg. It wasn''t order right?well if I say this he will keep spouting nonsense.so I will keep it at my heart. "Hmm!!hmm!!"(Shadow) Shadow grumbled...This guy said as he followed me. Well there is no way he can talk thought...because he kept eating I only pour some chilli..it was a special chilli called dead chilli...I doubt he can close his mouth to eat food thougt.....While the magician was lazyly follow me...well at least she follow me..well I didn''t know her name..because she sleep when she introduce herself...Still..how to make them believe me...hmm...?a castle?...Aha.. "That smile...what are you planning."(Shiro) ''Hey everyone did you see the castle over there?"(Ezax) Everyone eyes fall on the castle far from us... "That is castle for our mission right?What''s wrong with it?"(Gale) "???/?"(Shadow) "Was lunch ready?"(Lux) ".....Ezax please don''t..."(Shiro) Ignoring Shiro..I immediately said to them.Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site. "Let''s see,the castle was kinda large.....I guess around 5 hours.."(Ezax) "What are you talking about?"(Gale) ...why you asking that,I looked at them except shiro like an Idiot . "Time to empty to conquer the castle of course?How the hell are you thinking.."(Ezax) Everyone immediately curse together. "FUCK!!!!!"(Everyone) I ignored all of them only shrug my shoulder as I run toward the entrance...then I found a human with some strange carriage as I wonder about that...I change my plan . I immediately starting cast zero presence...a spell that made investigating easier..as Long they didn''t look directly at me or searching using magic. I will be fine because many beast men have low magic.....as I walk around I found a room which was guarded by 4 people....all of them were veteran...but why all of them human. ..Something wasn''t right. They also have magic with them ..as 2 of them have staff with them. I immediately walk back and then take a look at windows...a room?as I opened the windows and immediately entered the room. A knife flashed and aimed at my neck...I immediately dodge it and then I hit someone palm with my sword...made him drop the knife....but as I see it carefully...it was a girl around my age with a messy long hair and tarttered dress. A noble?Not to mention she was a beastment one too..She immediatey pick up the knife and pointed at her neck. With eyes full of resolution she said. "I will never bow to your desire no matter what!!!!"(???????) She said...she knows if she shout the guard will enter the room...and can''t do this...still..She was a FOOL!!!I immediately hit her palm forcefully before she can react..and made her drop dagger.....after I do this I push her to the ground to make sure she doesn''t endanger her life anymore...... "Listen to me!!!No matter how harsh life can''t be !!!LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!"(Ezax) "!!!"(???????) As I thought that the someone begin to bang the door. No other choice...I begin to chant the spell of light..there is no need to hold back..people here are only scum anyway.....to have hostage and kidnap other party..it was big taboo even in war it was forbidden..if it was found out...then people who will be responsible will be erased by the 4 "Fafnir please."(Ezax) "Understood."(Fafnir) Just before I finished someone focefully broke the door. It was the guard that guarded the door..as their eyes fall on me..they immediately react but.. "You!!!!How dare you enter this room without us knowing!!!"(Guard) "Ray!!!!"(Ezax) Immediately 4 ray from side to side was fired and all of them hit their hit...no one of them misses....as I immediately run toward the survivor,the survivor swing his word downward..I dodge to the side and then quickdraw my katana and severed his head......as outside get noisier.I only think it was because I lost myself..what to do...As I thought I found the beastgirl dumbfounded.,... "Why?Why you kill them?Aren''t they your race?...and...wasn''t you a child too?"(??????) "Does it matter?In life it doesn''t matter you are child or a baby..to survive we need power.also you are mistaken."( FIrst I am not human nor you will understood.. of a Even if they are the same race as me it won''t change a thing. I will kill them anyone that I think was a threat...I will kill them. It doesn''t matter they are the same race me or not I will protect those important to me.."(Ezax) As I said that I prepared to leave...but then I noticed she was unmoving.. "What are you doing?You wanted to escape right,then follow me."(Ezax) Hear this she put face as she can''t believe it.. "What do you think I am some cold blooded murderer?Or do you think I am mercenary?Both of them are wrong thought..I hate blood,but I have no choice..rather than let other people suffer..I will force myself to kill them. If you think it was because payment...than it was wrong too..First do you think I will be hired beastment?There is no right?I was human outside..wait that''s not right...it was more problem that because I was still child right?Wait or do you think I am kidnapper ?That''s is impossible too...why I should kidnap other people kidnap?You think I am that free?...well enough of explanation...Follow me if you want to exit.."(Ezax) At this I was too carefree...and talk a lot....But at that time because I was still in small position and have no position..with position you need to grow more adult or that was I think before..but the girl reaction before me shook me the most. "I don''t want to return home,so please kidnap me.."(???????) "....The fuck?"(Ezax) Chapter 65:Ezax Past,War with beastmen part 3. I pinch my cheek...It hurts so It was ''t dream. I must misshear it.. "Ehm?Can you repeat it for me?"(Ezax) I am sure of it,there is no way that will happen in real life to begin with. "I don''t want to return home,please kidnap me.."(??????) o-0. I can''t believe it,there must be some mistake...Maybe she doesn''t understand what it means...As a good guy I must explain it to her... "Hey,hey do you know what kidnap mean."(Ezax) "I know,but I don''t want to return home....please..."(??????) She grab my shirt. Just what kind of house she was from to be afraid like this?Should I just take care her?From her fur and her ear...she must be belong to the special race among beastmen..If I can get her maybe she will help me. Sight...Let''s think about it later. "I will bring you outside first,when we were safe I will ask again. Anyway how should I call you?"(Ezax) "Anything you like.."(?????) "!@$#$!@!#@"(Ezax) Like hell!!!This girl she is eccentric. Why you can''t be normal girl like other!!!!I will ask her again I guess. "What is your name ?"(Ezax) "Please name me..."(??????) ..........I can''t follow her at all,why she go this far?Hmm?Footstep?There is bit steel sound too....let''s escape first.Leviathan... "Okay."(Leviathan) If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. Dragon water spell. As I moved my other hand fowards a blue magic glips around my hand size appeared then I said.. "Slip drop..."(Ezax) A water begin to gush out from my hand...slowly it enter the hallway and heard many people who dropped on their butt. A basic spell certainly has it use.I circle one of my hand around her waist and then said.. "Grab me tightly okay?"(Eax) "Understood."(???????) As I jump from windows with her ,I land on ground softly just by chant a small wind magic before we landed on....but then the hallway immediately full of beastmen and knight.ambush huh?It will be hard for us to escape. Still there is a huge conspiracy by this alone..As I thought that someone clapped his hand...A fatty with glasses and wore extravagant clothes come to front of us..Corrupt noble huh?I heard as I let her down.. "Awesome,to beat my veteran guard yourself at your age. As expected of demon child Ezax."(Noble) "You know me huh?Then let cut it short...Do you realize what crime have you done?"(Ezax) "Who cares what crime I have done?Archer"(Noble) As he lift his hand,all of the soldiers prepared their bow and aimed at us....while The beast girl was grip my clothes tightly and was clearly afraid.Still my mouth curved and let out bit laugh. "Hahaha.."(Ezax) Everyone only see me a madman. They think I am become mad because I have no way out. "Pig ,Let me ask you again...Didn''t you understand how severe your crime is?To make a beastmen a slave while we are at war?"(Ezax) "A outsider like you doesn''t have right too interfree between our race!!!!Unknown being like you who only have human appearance doesn''t have right to enter between us?"(Noble) "Right,As my guild card says my race was always question ...no matter how hight level the orb no one can identify me....Still it was supposed to be a top secret how you know it?"(Ezax) "Knowledge was source of power...Surely I already investigate all of people who come here."(Noble) "Ho ,I see..surprisingly you have a lot of connection with body like that..."(Ezax) "Right?Then our talk is over who knows you were preparing for reinforcement."(Noble) "A pity,you certainly are have great knowledge and was careful..you also didn''t look down people just based on child but.."(Ezax) Before I finished,all of the archer fired their arrow at me...and were planned to kill all of us... "You underestimate me too much....."(Ezax) A huge tornado enveloped us and repelled all of the arrows. Once the tornado dispersed a dragon with 4 wings and 2 legs and with somehow cute face appeared. A emerald as on its head give sense of holiness. "Typhon...Judge them with your wind."(Ezax) The great wind dragon typhon. The dragon that have greatest knowledge among my dragon...also...The one that had greatest defensive spell among my dragon. A sigil then appeared at my forehead...slowly arrow that were repelled and lying on group were lifted up. "Avenger gale."(Ezax) "Roger."(Typhon) The arrow immediately fired at them back . Some of them pierced their chest...some of them pierced their eye.some of them pierced their throat. Majority of them didn''t die...but majority of them were wounded heavily...Excelusive dragon spell of typhon Avanger gale...create a shield that negate enemy attacks...then made it repelled to enemy with 2x times force...It doesn''t work with magic. The reason it didn''t immediately repel the arrows were simple...because I want to give a damage at enemy morale...Now shall I give another attack? I take out ajavelin from my spatial ring...it was cheap javelin that cost 10 silver. First I cast magic on the tip of javelin and then throw it to the mass of knight and created huge tornado.. "Now how should I coook you up...pig?"(Ezax) My hand was itchy....After all it was rare to see scum like you... Chapter 66:Ezax past 4 ,War with beastmen part 4. "Now what would you?Do still plan to fight?"(Ezax) Everyone were cowering in fear.But the noble still standing even if his own leg was shaking. Looks He was afraid of me ...also started panicking. I can kind predict what he will do.. The question is..will soldier do as his order. As right now I doubt any of his soldier will do as he said. Soldier are living being too..they will desperately try their best to survive.... "What are you guys doing!!!!!!Attack him!!!We beat him in number !!!No matter how strong is he was only single person!!!"(Noble) "It was useless.."(Ezax) Immediately the watch tower beside the castle exploded. I set some explosive charm before save their fellow beastkin...the reason I do this because maintaining Typhon cost a huge magic power...secondly I hate blood ,If possible I want to minimize the casaulty...well if they still tried to resist. THen I will kill them all... "Monster!!!"(Human) "He is monster!!!Everyone run!!!"(Beastmen) ...Everyone immediately run away....pathetic. I think only majority of them will do it...but never expect all of them run away like a dog. Well beastmen were a prideful race and also race that care each kin more than anyone,it was a normal the one gather here were coward..but never expect human to run too. Was it because the beastmen run?Beastmen were stronger than normal human in physical term...contrary too that their magic was only focused on strengthening type...they lack magic power to cast magic spell like human. Still this was a nice thing...a coward in the end was a coward....Now...noble..you were left alone...what you can do? "Don''t kill me!!!!I am the cousin of king!!!"(Noble) "What do you think?After what you done..do you think king could save you?"(Ezax) I believe you will be eliminated before anything else...as I thought that a arrow flying and pierced his head..which made him die at the spot...from the speed..it was beastmen...some arrow was aiming at us...but I blocked it with wind created by typhon. Try to eliminate the hostage huh. Let''s fish him out. "It is useless to hide from me..show yourself."(Ezax) Slowly a beastmen come out from shadow. Black leopard kin...the one that priotized stealth and speed...his attire was noble looking one...a noble huh?This is dangerous... A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation. "Oni-san."(??????) "My sister I come to save you!!!"(Beastmen noble) . Hear that I immediately made held the little girl tighter. I noticed her leg was shaking.. "What''s wrong sister?This is your dearest brother."(Beastmen noble) "Stop acting....I know you were aiming at her life."(Ezax) He put baffled face.Still trying to approach us.. "What''s wrong little sis.It''s me your big brother."(Beastmen noble) He walk toward us,slowly like brother who were really care his sister...but his siter was really afraid and hug me tightly....Then just 3 meter between us...His Arm suddenly grow bigger. And try to kill us..I immediately step back with the girl and then typhon use it''s wind to attack him and push him quite back. "Cih."(beastmen noble) He spit on the ground. That was dangerous..as right now with little girl on my side..I doubt I can''t beat him. He is also high noble among beast. Unlike human..noble in beast was the term for beastmen who unlock their beast inner force...so it means the higher rank of their nobility the stronger they are.The specialty beastmen...Divine beast form...An ability to turn into beast. He also able to use half transformation which mean he is very strong..he must be around A rank adventurer on human continent which also proof of their nobility. "Why you protect her?She was only stranger to you right?""(Beastmen noble) I cancel my summon. Then I drink mana potion ,let''s buy some time by asking him some question. "Why you do this?"(Ezax) "?For killing some time."(Beastmen noble) At first I expect him to kill her for money or anything similar like that. Still for killing some time ?What kind of absurd reason was this... "You are psycho,do you know that?Manipulating people ,sold your own sister...I never seen twisted person more than you until now."(Ezax) "Thank you for your praise,really it was a waste for kid with promising future like you will dying right now.."(Beastmen noble) "Well,well if you don''t mind...can you tell me your name?"(Ezax) "...Sure considering you are going to die I don''t mind telling me my name. Remember and cower fear thou human...My name is legios the second prince of beastmen !!!"(Legios) Uh oh?This made me surprised..Never expect to met famous figure here..well that wasn''t the problem here...it means the little girl who hugs me were the princess..sight.what kind of coincidence is here..well if he is legios..then his true strength were only B rank or A rank at lowest level. Sight I am afraid of nothing...beside.. "Prince of fire legios...can ask you another question is?Why you do this to your own sister?Surely there is other target beside her right?"(Ezax) "What do you think? She was the unwanted princess..she can''t Use Divine beast form. Her physical only above average civilian. Everyone loathe her..if she was gone no one won''t care right?She is the ideal candidate for sacrifice."(Legios) "I see..Legios last question..."(Ezax) "This is the last okay?I can''t wait to kill you and tear you apart!!!"(Legios) Psycho among psycho...really letting him alive will be absurd... "Her name is Elicia,the third princess of beastmen.."(Legios) "Elicia,Okay I will remember it..really little girl you have beautiful name yet why you hide it from of me.."(Ezax) Then I stand on tiptoes and pat her head.. "Don''t be afraid,this brother will protect you."(Ezax) "Protect?Do you think you can beat me?you are Ezax right ?Rank B adventurer who join 3 monts ago...Your element is wind...which is weak to my fire.your weaponchoice was spear...compared to my axe what you can do?I have too many advantage over you!!even if you are a dragoon...do you think you can beat me?!"(Legios) Sight... "Fafnir."(Ezax) "Roger!!!"(Fafnir) Slowly a light enveloped us and Dragon with white scale and white wing stand on his 4 leg appear behind me...Then I summon my sword from spatial ring..sight it was too annoying to do this every time..I should get stronger and able to handle 7 weapon at time....See this both of the little girl and legios was baffled.. "Legios....You know..Usually I am not person easy to provoke...but let me congrulate you. You have provoked me...that''s why...I will kill you."(Ezax) What you know was matter in the past..compared to me now...with me and fafnir...Let''s see who willdie.. Chapter 67:Ezax past,war with beastmen part 5. Narrator POV. As soon as fafnir summoned ,Light begin to gather at fafnir mouth...The beast prince legios immediately used his divine beast authority. Slowly a crimson fur appear with his mane grow bigger...His body grow more bulky . But what more ridiculous was how big his arm grow. It become a huge claw. It can easily break armor and kill person. Thought there is a reason why it was more scarier.. "Fafnir!!"(Ezax) Fafnir open his mouth and a light was bursting from his mouth and was aimed at legios. Legios react was slightly late which made the light hit one of his claw.once the light fades,he found his claw had a huge hole in it.But instead of being painful,legios mouth sligthly curved .. "kHehehe..!!!"(Legios) He let out sligthly laughed ,while Ezax was drinking another potion to restore his magic power. Then Fafnir charged another light at his mouth. Then slowly legios take out some bottle contain blood and then drink it. Then the hole immediately closed and the claw become normal. "Unlike you humans!!!There more blood we drink the more we rejuvenate on!!!That''s why there is no way we can lost to you.."(Legios) Maybe beastmen was bad at magic,but god didn''t threat them fair....they were given divine beast authority..it was not just increased their physical power but also strengthen their vitality. Just by drink blood they able to heal themselve...but..it was extreme. Drinking blood can regrow their arm while they were at divine beast authority it was like while they were using divine beast authority they have invicible body..as long their heart was fine...they won''t die. That''s why beast noble were treated at utmost important position...they were too strong compared to other normal beastmen.... But then a light begin to gather at rightside of Ezax,then it forms a sword. 3 were hovering beside him.. "I know that,I also know divine beast authority consume a lot of stamina. That''s why let''s see how long you last fighting seriously."(Ezax) Then Fafnir released his breathe once more again. This time legios dodge it completely,or as he thought so because Ezax the sword already at the place where he dodge and push him back to the light... "Kuh!!!"(Legios) Because of that one of his leg was gone....but then he immediately drink another blood,and the leg regrow by itself..once he finished he go and etc repeat. Slowly legios moved foward once he arrived in front of him,fafnir dissapeared and Ezax was on his knees. He was too tired and Alicia was watching worriedly behind her. "As expected you are magician type. From the way you are fighting I can predict you were a magician."(Legios) "Who knows...But you will pay for underestimating me."(Ezax) Legios dodge it easily and then he moved his claw and severed Ezax head... "Huh ,weaklings in the end were weaklings..Now what I should do to you my little sister?"(Legios) As he said he smiled to his own sister,but then he noticed,,..the severed head of the human was smiling..Then It vanished..slowly a wind engulfed him made him close his eyes for a moment...and Many lights form of nail were surrounded him...his leg was binded by magic. Also there is many blood scent nearby that belong to beastmen outside of the castle..It was belong to his underling who fired the arrow before to kill Elicia. Yet why all of them were died.This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it. "Dragon magic ,Light of deceit..how is it?(Ezax) Ezax appeared in far from him. But even fool know that he pushed himself...because there is drip of blood flow from his lips. "Since when?"(Legios) If it was normal illusion magic ,legios of course will notice it. but he didn''t even notice it was an illusion..maybe because the fain he felt was real..and when he consumed the blood he felt body rejuvenated. FOr illusion user you need to imagine how the reality works..that''s why for illusioner or mage who was master illusion many of them were rather insane...and yet this guy was perfectly sane...he only damaged because his lacking mana..Legios felt this little human was not normal... "There is no need to tell you,using this magic...was out of my maximum to begin with."(Ezax) The nail then immediately moved and pierced him made him like porcupine...once Ezax know legios dead,Ezax immediately fall on his knees...To keep using dragon breath 3 times was his limit..and yet he use more than 10 times by using potion nonstop.even thought magic power can be restored..but stamina won''t....he also using Dragon magic ,Light of deceit at start of battle . His whole body alread sore...his eyes were so sleepy.Ezax knows he can''t beat him without using all of this..but with many assasin nearby Elicia was in danger..she was a just a little grl who never participate in war..there is no she way she can defend herself...As he thought that Ezax fall on his butt..and was breathe roughly. "..You,why you go this far for me. Why..why you risk your life for beastmen?If you abandon me--you won''t-"(Elicia) I stand on tiptoes once again and pat her head. It was hard because she was taller than me...I then answered. "Don''t mind ,don''t mind. I do this because I can''t let you suffer....still looks like I must continue to fight."(Ezax) Ezax eyes were blurry... yet he forced his eyes open..because he heard some horse footstep. He support himself with the sword...then once again he stand straight..He mustn''t let know the enemies was on weakened state. As the horse entered. It was a male beastmen who wear noble clothes. Followed by some of beastmen..,Immediately he noticed the girl and Also the corpse of legios...some of the beastmen face turn horror.... "You..You killed legios!!!!HOW DARE YOU HUMAN!!!"(Noble) He shows his killing intent on me... THen suddenly he appeared in front of ezax. Ezax can''t react to his movement...and was send to the air and had his back crashed with the castle wall... "Cought."(Ezax) Ezax coughed blood and then he fall on the floor lifelessly.See this Elicia immediately prepared to go over him..but she was stopped the majority of beastmen. "Release me!!!Release me!!!"(Elicia) "Princess ,it was too dangerous.."(Noble beastmen) Then the beast king who still in rage,immediately roared. "Elicia!!Why !!!why you care humans!!!!!Humans kill your brother!!!"(King of beastmen) "FATHER!!!HE PROTECTED ME!!!HE PROTECT FROM MY OWN BROTHER WHO WANT TO KILL ME!!!!!!!!WHY FATHER KILL HIM!!!"(Elicia) "Elicia are you nuts !!!There is no way that your brother want to ki-"(Beast king) "That was the truth,don''t run away from it KING!!!!."(Ezax) Ezax stand up,His head was blleding...his eye was blurry..he felt he can pass out anytime soon..but...he can''t pass out right now.. "ELICIA!!!!!!!!!"(Ezax) "Yes!!!"(Elicia) ..Ezax breath was so roughed.. but no one knows why...he felt a pressure that made even the king doesn''t dare to make a move rashly..he slowly stand up,no one knows why but..they can breathe normally.. "You know,maybe your father was an Idiot..He was most Idiotic beastmen I have ever seen...But I believe he truly love all of you equally..Elicia..let me ask you again.....Do you truly wish..too separate from your father?"(Ezax) "I.."(Elicia) I don''t know ,Elicia thought. The guy that give him warm that she never felt...truly an earnest guy...still...she doesn''t want to return. She want to answer no..but before she can answer him.. "You!!!How dare you human to address princess that way!!!"(Noble guard) A noble dog beastmen was roared and prepared to draw his sword and kill him on the spot.but.. "Shut up you dog."(Ezax) The pressure increased...no one knows that Ezax was using dragoon magic ,Dragoon pressure to keep them on their spot...right. If he fight again then he knows he will die...But then the beast king with solemn face. "Why?Why you willing to go this far for beastmen?Aren''t you human?Do you know what will happen to the war if you kidnap her?"(Beast king) "I DON''T GIVE A FUCK!!!!"(Ezax) His answer surprised everyone ,even beast king. Ezax then continue.. "If I can''t protect a single girl ,just because I am afraid...If I can''t protect girl just because she was beastmen...If I can''t protect girl just because there is stronger person than me,then I can''t never protect my family!!!I will not falter no matter what!!!Even if you a beast king !Beast king I am not afraid of you!!!"(Ezax) "Ezax,Please stop !!!"(Elicia) Tears begin to flow from her small eyes......She forced her to smile... "I am fine already,I am fine.."(Elicia) "I see,Elicia...I will never forget your kindness.."(Ezax) Ezax knew..Elicia what wanted too...Even an Idiot will know..the reason she said this. was she know...she know Ezax will die if she told her that she want to leave...that''s why she lied to him....Ezax bit his own lips..Slowly a dragon appeared above him,it was typhon...then he said.. "If Elicia died because your naivety..I swear..I will eraseyour beastmen from the map!!!"(Ezax) "...You,what''s your name.."(Beast king) "Ezax.only Ezax."(Ezax) "I see...I will remember your name."(Beast king) Then immediately Ezax surrounded himself with a tornado...once the tornado disperse...Ezax was nowhere to seen. "Idiot ,hahaha..I was called Idiot by a little boy!!"(Beast king) "Your majesty?"(Noble beast) BEast king immediately freed Elicia from them and then he lift her up,then he whisper her something. "You know,Elicia...You are beastmen..while he is human. If you get together...surely many incovenience will appear in front both of you..still do you still want to be with him?"(Beast king) Elicia nod. "Then get stronger...get stronger to protect each other back okay?"(Beast king) Chapter 68: Start of the omen. "Uh,Where am I?"(Eliza) "Oh,you finally woke up. How do you feel?"(Ezax) I brought my chair and sit in front of her,take out some medicinal drink.Dejectedly Eliza said... "Sorry,For being burden."(Eliza) "It can''t be helped. Eliza do you feel bit dizzy?"(Ezax) "A bit,but it was lighter compared to before. I think I will be fine."(Eliza) "I see,to be safe drink this. It was an energy drink I made."(Ezax) As I passed drink she drink it immediately..but her face was rather distorted. "I know it was bitter,but please force yourself to drink it. It will restore your energy a bit."(Ezax) She nod as she try her best . once she drink it all..She immediately let out relieved breathe. "Ezax,where were the others?"(Eliza) "They were going out for moment. Thought Now I think they were listening at the song near here."(Ezax) As Eliza noticed there were a song...Eliza closed her eyes...and listened to it earnestly. "It was a beautiful song...the one who sing must be a wonderful person."(Eliza) Not wonderful as you thought though. Well if she like it I guess let''s chase others then. "Eliza ,can you stand up?"(Ezax) "Yes."(Eliza) As Eliza get out of bed,I take out a very thick hood and wear it. Then I take out deodorant and spray it at myself. No I already hide myself pretty well.. "What are you doing?"(Eliza) "I have something to do. So I will escort you to where hikari and Seria .I will return later..."(Ezax) I already casted tracing magic on both of them ,in the case both of them run off. But Eliza then said. "Can I follow you?"(Eliza) I think for a moment. Well that was fine too. The mysterious girl told me to strengthen our bond....I guess this is the time thought. "Sure."(Ezax)The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. As I told Eliza to wear some hood,also made her use deodorant. I write some message and left them on room that we will return in the evening. I brought Eliza to the market. As I bought some toy for the children..Eliza questioned me. "Ezax what was that for?"(Eliza) "You will know it soon."(Ezax) As We keep walking,I finally return....I knock the door. soon a doggirl appeared. "Yes,yes. Kuro was here ."(Kuro) "Yo kuro long time no see."(Ezax) "Ezax!!!!!What takes you here ?"(Kuro) Still cheerful like always huh,then as I thought that A human appeared behind her.. "Kuro,You shouldn''t made him standing there. Let him in."(????) "Oh sorry,Come come in Ezax!!You girlfriend behind him please get in too."(Kuro) "Eh girlfriend?!!"(Eliza) Eliza then immediately was dragged in by kuro left me and the human guy alone. "Sorry,Ezax my wife was always like this.."(????) He smiled wryly at me.... "It can''t be helped.Senior Flame didn''t you like her like this better?"(Ezax) "Kukuku!!!That''s why I Like your attitude better than those arrogant noble!!!anyway come in!!!I have something to show you!!!"(Senior flame) Narrator POV "Ezax oni-chan!!!"(Children) A horde of beast child were running toward Ezax. Ezax smiled heartedly,then he begin take out some toy ...THe children were mixed of many races. From their face Eliza knows they were an orphan. But knowing Ezax playing with them made her heart felt warms.As she thought that she saw the cat girl approaching the human guy. "Dear,She was sleeping.."(Kuro) "Well,it can''t be helped.oh yes,I forgot to introduce myself my name is Flame Lionheart,this is my wife kuro lionheart. Nice to meet you."(Senior flame) "Ah,My name is Eliza.. nice to meet you too."(Eliza) As they sit in the corner while watching Ezax playing around with children..Flame then opened her mouth. "Eliza-san...Can I request something for you?"(Flame) "Sure.."(Eliza) "Please made Ezax happy.."(Flame) "Eh?"(Eliza) When flame says that her face grow hotter and begin redder and redder.. "There is no need to be embarrased that much..Eliza-san. That was my request as well.Please made him happy..."(Kuro) "Umm,I will try my best !!So please stop bow at me.."(Eliza) As both of them were earnestly requested it. Eliza immediately accept it.to begin with there is no reason to refuse them but...it made her curious. "Flame-san,Kuro-san .Mind telling me how you met Ezax?"(Eliza) "I am fine,kuro how about you?"(Flame) "I don''t mind.There was nothing to hide."(Kuro) Heard that flame begin to tell her story,Flame was a general in frontline who was very talented and was well respected by each other. At that time Flame was often clashing beastmen ,Kuro and Flame were fighting each other as top general...but somehow accident happened at both of them at the mountain. Both of them fell together at cliff when they fight at each other....somehow they survived...but they were barely alive at that time..that''s they decided to have truce until the help comes..Slowly they fall in love . Even thought they always telling themselves to forget each other but they can....even after they were rescued...they can''t forget each other.. Slowly each general begin to suspect flame become traitor.At that time most of general were noble who search a way to gain more fame or money. They only see beastmen as their step to go higher place.. that''s why thye begin their plan to eliminate flame ...to them,flame will be someone that end the war and not something they wished...Flame realized that but he can''t do anything..until a the youngest general appeared before him. "It was Ezax..."(Eliza) "Yes...remembering that still made me baffled. what he said was surprised me the most after all."(Flame) That time the young boy said... "Do you guys love each other??"(Ezax) "Pardon?"(Flame) "I will ask you again then. Do you guys love each other?"(Ezax) Flame heard that ,he can only nod but then he sighed and said.. "Ezax,I don''t know why you asking this but I don''t know what are-."(Flame) "Answer me honestly. Based on your answer I can solve your problem.So answer me flame...do you truly love her?"(Ezax) At that time flame didn''t think anything and answering him..He knows compared to shitty nobles Ezax was thousand times better..deep inside he truly hopes to be saved...hear that Ezax only smiled at him....then he made them dissapear from war...more likely..made both of them killed at action or everyone think so... at that time the condition Ezax for helping them was making an orphanage once the war over...thought they know...it was to undercover their identify... thanks to ezax help the orphanage run smoothly. No one would think the orphanage was run over by 2 former famous general. Thanks to beast king help they also able to made an orphanage at the city border..... "I see,Ezax always been like this."(Eliza) Eliza smiled as she saw Ezaax playing with children like a good brother... "You see,Ezax always tries his best to do everything alone also he was rather dense. That guy also won''t settle soon..."(Flame) "We can''t payback for what she had done for us...that''s why please made him happy in our stead..even thought he was adult outside..deep inside he was just a child.."(Kuro) "I understand,I will try my best ."(Eliza) At this no one knows....tragedy that will befall on beast kingdom. Chapter 69:Start of couple festival. As I finished visiting my friends. We were on way to return to the inn.Eliza then said.. "The baby,it was cute wasn''t it.Ah.."(Eliza) "Still to think they have baby..."(Ezax) Honestly it surprised me,but it mades me happy see family like that. All of the orphan also treat the baby as their sibling...Well with support of beast king,I think someday the oprhanage will grow very big...Well the happiest was eliza..I can tell she was in the happiest mood...looks like she really like to play with child...I didn''t expect this too. "The baby is soft and warm.."(ELiza) Let''s tease her a little. "If you like a baby that much,then you should marry off someone and have their baby. Easy wasn''t it?"(Ezax) "Don''t tease me like that!!!!!I won''t marry person that I didn''t love you know!!!"(Eliza) "Yes,yes..still you play too much with the baby."(Ezax) Took around 6 hour to exit the orphanage because of her .Maybe we should stay bit longer...After all I felt so reluctant to return to the inn.When I arrived at the inn..the inn was already packed. So we hurried return to our room..but this happened too me as soon as I return. "Ezax !!!!!"(?????) A female wolf jumped at me like a bullet,there is no need to ask there was only 1 beastmen that will do this...but...Because of this...I failed to dodge her and hit at my freaking stomach..because of the force It push me to the wall and my head hit the wall along with my body.....Damn...to think I got damage... "Ezax~~~"(Elicia) As she rub her cheek at my chest,Elizarolledher eyes. While Seria was shown menacing smile. Hikari also laughing with hollow eyes.....well let''s ask them what was happened.This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. 3 hours later. To sum it up,The beast princess were elegant and carry princess air when she were still in the room waiting for me. Seria and Hikari get along at first...Hikari also look up the beast princess...Well Elicia really a "princess" to others..well too me she just a spoiled little sister...after all right now she wrapped her arms around mine..which made me hard to move.. "My image."(Hikari) ....Hikari don''t you forget something important? "Ezax pat me pat me.."(Elicia) Like helll!!!To beastmen pat was act of lover!!! "Hehehe!!There is no way Nii-c-sama will pat you!!!She only will pat me!!!Nii-sama pat me!!!!"(Seria) Why you turn this into competition?Well you are my little sister.....so I pat her,which made her frown for a moment..but then she revert bact to smile and said. "Sister zoned...PFft."(Elicia) "!!!!You!!!!"(Seria) As they started to argue in front of me ,I immediately stand up and then said.. "Do you guys want me to kick both of you out?"(Ezax) Immediately both of them shut up...wait...I just noticed.. "Elicia,where were your guard?"(Ezax) "Hm?I left them alone of course.After they were keep following me like a flea.."(Elicia) "I know right!!!They keep saying it is for our safety!!!!!But there is no way we can be mentally healthy with all of that!!"(Hikari) "I agree!!!because of that I don''t have any freedom when I walk outside.."(Seria) I understood if hikari understand her pain,but why you too seria?You aren''t princess you know? "Here is some milk .."(Eliza) "Thanks.."(Ezax) As I watched them doing girl talk,Eliza then ask me question.. "Where was gale?"(Eliza) ".......Hey Elicia,tell me how did you leave your guard."(Ezax) "You know the guard starting badmouthing you when they heard your name...So I cast bit magic on them...."(Elicia) "...Elicia..you know gale have unlucky status among my student right?"(Ezax) "It can''t be helped !!They are badmouthing you after all!!!"(Elicia) That is not the reason I worry about him...I am more worried if Elicia used typhoon or such...if that happen...surely...As I thought that Gale opened the door drenched with water. "FUh fuH!!how the hell I was involved to thrown into the sea!!!"(Gale) "..Elicia..."(Ezax) "Gale,I am sorry."(Elicia) "No it''s fine.After my luck was really bad.."(Gale) As he wipe himself ,he then said.. "By the way Ezax,I heard there will be a festival will be held soon.It''s reward was kind of small ship."(Gale) Hear that my eyes were prickled by a bit..A ship...I need it to go to elf continent and dragoon continent soon.This is the most usefulness of gale..after he get unlucky he will get certain luck for temporaly . "I see ,then how we participate?"(Ezax) "Oh,As expected of master!!!I am sure master will defeat them easily!!!"(Gale) "Quit it,now tell me how I participate?"(Ezax) "Simple enough,it was couple festival so only couple can be participate..well It wa 7 days of survival in island full of monster.."(Gale) I immediately have bad feeling about this!! "EZAX!!!!"(Elicia,Hikari) "Nii-sama!!"(Seria) ..Yup all of them were out of choice... "Eliza...I count on you.."(Ezax) "uh?I will try my best!!"(Eliza) It wasn''t like they were not dependable or anything.I don''t know why...Eliza was the safest choice among them..also if anyone wondering why I participate?Because if I ask the king I will owe them one...You know I don''t like to owe people.......that''s why it was better to participate in the festival...A ship huh?I wonder what I should named it?. Chapter 70:First encounter of mysterious girl(Eliza) "Eh why with Eliza?"(Everyone) Do you guys need to ask?Even an Idiot can tell .. "Because she was the harmless among you,I am worried about my safety then win this festival after all."(Ezax) If not for Elicia being aggresive I will take her along. Her survivability was really good. In fact she can cook almost anything and her skill was on par of mind. Unlike seria and Hikari who being nice to others,Elicia in fact put princess air when she with others. Thought certainly it made many of her suitor go down with it.....There was another reason thought "Beside Elicia ,Seria and Hikari among all of you Eliza was the weakest,I still need train to her. "(Ezax) It took around 7 days,it should be more than enought. "Go rise yourAchievement rank first."(Takuya) Certainly based on their ability they have A guild rank. ..while the rest of them were E,the worst were seria F. The reason their rank didn''t rise when I do the quest was mainly because They were out of guild rules to accept point to rise rank...well I am bit overkill thought in rank...SS rank because I do too much quest....well my ability was only S rank right now. While Eliza quest rank were A because she was knight and Hikari bodyguard on top of it. Because of that her achievement rank was hight..Oh I forgot to explain. Achievement were another rank beside guild rank. The higher the achievement rank the higher function guild we can access..for example guild private room or free guild message were part of guild system...well there was also 50% cut when you buy supply from guild . It was important reward for A rank..So It will be the best if they could achieve A rank . Well because Elicia was slacker when it comes to physical training...I guess I must put some reward on It. "The fastest one to achieve A rank of achievement rank. I will give you anything as long it was unreasonable.I know it will be hard...but-..Nah...You guys won''t listen anyway..."(Ezax)Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel. Because Hikari and Elicia already gone...WHile Seria instead. "Oni-sama I will try my best."(Seria) "Yeah."(Ezax) After seria said that she immediately exitted the room. At least she have some respect..but I am kind of regret it..Well as long they didn''t ask anything absurd ...no it was impossible...let''s just think when the time comes...it was not easy to rise achievement rank. "Eliza ,I will go buy some supply first. So please register while gale you escort her..It will be trouble some if she was tricked by some trickster. "(Ezax) "Understood."(Gale) "Okay."(Eliza) As soon as they said that ,I also exited the room. Losing wasn''t an option..so I first I will ask around first... Narrator POV. "Eliza-san,master was dense person.So try your best to attack him okay?"(Gale) As soon they finished registering they immediately walk back to inn..once they arrived at inn and arrived at Eliza room.Gale immediately say that which made Eliza blushed .. "There is no way I would attack him.!!"(Eliza) "Hahaha,I am just joking. But Eliza it will be the best if one of you become Master lover."(Gale) "Why everyone said that?You know..Ezax wasn''t that pitiful.."(Eliza) "Wrong,Master was really pitiful...someone who doesn''t care his own happiness if he wasn''t that pitiful then what was he?"(Gale) Then gale continued. "You know master were very kind....but he never depended others.It was like he don''t want anyone to be involved him...Eliza you must know how he act around you..you should noticed how he handle so many thing at once...you noticed right?How he tried his best to solve it all alone."(Gale) "That''s.."(Eliza) "You see,the reason he take care of us was because he felt responsible for our live be it to the future..that''s why he tried his best to make us strong enought to live without him..."(Gale) Eliza think it was true...but then gale continued saying.. "Eliza ,you know right master want to go to dragoon continent?You know that he need money for pay mercenary and took back his family too right??That''s was a lie too. He need money for doping himself,forbidden drug was expensive after all.."(Gale) "..Ezax.."(Eliza) "He didn''t trust stranger ,which is plausible...but he risk his life too much...to us...who were his friend ....It tighten our heart so much..to see someone younger than us to be like this..."(Gale) "Then why you guys didn''t like us ?Force to join."(Eliza) "That''s is impossible...Our talent maybe great...but he more reluctant that way...To him...because we were talented we mustn''t involved in him...there is high chance us to die...or he said . That''s why we train our best we want to show him we won''t die...BUT!!! IN THE END WE WERE TOO WEAK!!!We can''t even help him!!"(Gale) "Gale."(Eliza) "That''s why in our stead...Please help Ezax..Just please become his chain...chain so he care his life more.."(Gale) "Gale I.."(Eliza) Before Eliza can answered.... "THat is impossible."(?????) Someone that they didn''t know suddenly appeared ... "Because both of you will die here."(??????) It was the mysterious girl that Ezax met before. Chapter 71:Curse. When I returned to the inn, I found both of gale already returned at the inn,but as I planned to greet them.Someone already appeared .....This feeling it was her!!!As I prepared to draw my sword..I heard what myterious girl said.... "Ezax,doesn''t need burden like you...before you become the chain that tied him I shallkill both of you.!!!(Mysterious girl) "....Eliza run,she is not enemy we can''t handle!!!"(Gale) But ignoring gale,I can see hear Eliza voice..she was wavering... "Yes,I am burden....After all compared to everyone I am completely useless...Unlike Hikari,I don''t have any special ability or anything..I don''t have talent magic like the beast princess. Even in a spar I lost to Seria..But no mattter I want to be his power!!!I want to support Ezax with all of might!!!!!!!"(Eliza) "So,everything without power is useless!!!As right now you will hinder Ezax that''s why I will kill you!!!"(Mysterious girl) Mysterious girl draw her great sword,But Eliza didn''t falter as she prepared her dual blades..Then she said.. "I won''t die after all I didn''t repay him yet!!"(Eliza) "Eliza-san,Let''s fight together.."(Gale) "Nn!!"(Eliza) The mysterious girl but were clearly faster than them...because she was already appeared behind her and prepared to swing her greatsword. but I already use my whip and bind her greatsword from any movement...As I do that...I immediately go toward them and then kick her away...She able to block it perfectly..but it made some distance between us. "Ezax."(Eliza) "Eliza,Gale stand back. She is not anyone you can handle.."(Ezax) "Ezax,but at least we -."(Eliza)The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. "I said stand back didn''t I?"(Ezax) As I said that I immediately used Dragon magic ,Ice shield which I layered to form a defensive wall...Then when I finished,a small red ball went straight to the Ice shield it created..It created a huge explosion which blasted the inn hallway...then suddenly A bird engulfed with flame fly toward me trying to burn me with its flame. "Brionac!!!"(Ezax) "Understood!!!"(Brionac) I summoned Brionac to handle the phoenix,As I thought that I summon another sword.. "Excal!!!"(Ezax) "Yes ,master.."(Excal) The hero sword Excalibur appeared in front of my hands. Saw the holy sword the myterious girl put surprised face,but she immediately return her sense as I run toward her and swing my excalibur..She parried it.As I said that.. "You what is your objective?Why you aimed at innocence people!!"(Ezax) "Innocence people?I never seen them as living being in the first place,to me they are just NPC!!!"(Mysterious girl) "What?"(Ezax) As the myterious girl said that she hit my stomach with her knee...which made took a step back..then She change her weapon into halberd at the same time lift into the air..This is bad. As I thought that I roll to the side and dodged her haldberd...but then at the same Brionac was pushed by the Bird engulfed in flame .Toward Us.. The mysterious girl then jumped and change her weapon once again this time. It was revert back into Great sword then spin mid air and thrust into the ground.. "Divine bird,battle arts..First Rhymeof leivatein."(Mysterious girl) As soon as she said I noticed there was a 3 meter giant sword created above me.No other choice.. "Brionac !!Dragon breath!!!"(Ezax) Brionac open its mouth and white snow dust was emitted from his mouth...As it clash with flame sword,Without Noticing the phoenix hit my right arm with the side..Ught...A blood begin to drip from my hands..but it immediately frozen slowly my right arm become cold..and I can''t swing my arm.. "Curse of icy flame?"(Brionac) As brionac muttering strange word ,the phoenix fly toward her own master and land beside her..Then the myterious girl pointed her finger and said with arrogant pride.. "This should be enough for today. The curse won''t be lifted as long the conditions wasn''t fulfilled.Brionac should be able to explain to you what the curse was.."(Mysterious) ...I felt cold sweat drip from my forehead. This girl..she knows my dragon better than me.. "You must kill Eliza within one weak..if not you know what will happen to your arm."(Mysterious girl) As soon as the mysterious girl said that,she immediately escaped along with the phoenix..... "Brionac,she said you know about the curse,care to explain it to me what is the curse?"(Ezax) Brionac hesitated for a moment then he said.. "My mind was bit hazy...but I can tell...if this keep going..your right will arm will be paralyzed for the whole of your life...."(Brionac) "Oh only that?I think I will be dead or something.If it were only like that then I will gladly sacrifice my arm."(Ezax) Hear my answer suddenly Eliza approached ,ah she must be worried..after all her eyes in tears.. "Ah,Eliza don''t worry It was only arm. There is nothing to worry-"(Ezax) *Slap* Eliza slapped me...then as she crying she said.. "STUPID!!!"(Eliza) As she said that she immediately run over......why ?Did I do something wrong? Chapter 72:Accident. Because I am worried she would commit suicide because of me,I immediately chase after but what I found was she was crying over in the lake far from here.Thanks god she still safe...And already pointed her knife at her throat..This made me angry and prevent from her to do so..even with one arm I can easily grab her hand to stop her from doing so... "Eliza!!!"(Ezax) "Release me!!!I don''t want to be burden to you!!!!!!!"(Eliza) She shake her head as she crying....This girl!!!I don''t understand her!!!!I don''t understand girl way of thinking!!Usually girls won''t go this far some of them even become happy!!!This was a common thing in nobility..and yet this girl try to trade her life for a single arm?!Is she an Idiot!!! "Listen to me!!!"(Ezax) "No!!!"(Eliza) "ELiza!!!(Ezax) Eliza released my grab and try to stab her own throat once again...SHIT!!!I immediately push her down to the ground to prevent her from doing so...but well...This accident happened. "uoh!!!"(All of my dragon except bahamut.) ....We kissed.It was accidental...but we kissed...HOW THE HELL THIS HAPPENED!!!I SHOULDN"T PUSH HER DOWN!!!WAH!!!!I WHAT I HAVE DONE!!!!!!As I panicked In my mind after all this was purely accidental unlike hikari case...But somehow Eliza calmed down a lot by it...I mustn''t let this chance to persuade from doing any foolishness like this. "Eliza listen,You are not a burden...You have a lot potential in you...Also to me you are very important to me (as a friend). I won''t allow you to die even if you try to commit suicide 100 times..then I will stop you...I don''t want you to die...So please..Don''t do this anymore..."(Ezax) While I try my best to dodge the awkward moment here...All of my dragon Except bahamut said. "Ah,It is embarrasing to see.."(Tiamat)Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on the original website.

I want so sleep on warm bed....not to mention tomorrow ...oh well There was a huge chance it was to be delayed..It made quite ruckus for dragon and fire bird appear at the same time..wellI already told gale to lie in my stead..So it will be fine.. "Let''s return "(Ezax) I saw tinge of Eliza at cheek..dunno what she was thinking.But I have don''t have any bad feeling or see bad omen..I guess it''s fine. When we returned inn everyone already waiting thought I immediately sit on top of my bed and then told everyone else what happened except the kiss part... "You guys be careful...any chance of you met her I suggest you retreat...that girl was far more stronger than me..even if both of you fight together there was no way you could won . Also....why you were following me?As Princess wasn''t there was something you do?"(Ezax) "Don''t worry,I already send gale to report."(Elicia) !?So that''s why...Gale when you return I will give you an earfull!!How the hell you sold your own master!!!!To think you already become knight for beastmen...!!!Hell!!That explains why it was too much coincidence...Still!! "I have no time to babysit another princess ..Go back."(Ezax) "Heh,My name is Elica not princess...womanizer..."(Elicia) "Womanizer my ass!!!"(Ezax) "It''s your fault to call me princess!!I always told you I hated to be treated as princess."(Elicia) As we hit each other forehead and begin to curse each other..I noticed both Eliza and Hikari was gone,It was only small matter. This is good time to teach Elicia some manner...if hikari was persistent..then Elicia was hardheaded. similar but different...unlike hikari who I rarely get into argument Elicia was good countering me...but somehow got into this kind of argument not bad....Rather I rarely found somehow got into silly argument like this...Thought after 1 hour we finished the argument and I finally able conviced Elicia to return the castle for time being....Sight..why she insisting joining this crazy party?I have my 2 hands full with my own sister and that persistent girl. I guess,finally I can sleep peacefully today.Tomorrow we will be starting participate in festival......I must take a rest...but when I returned at my room there was Eliza waiting for me.. "Ezax,I have a request about tomorrow."(Eliza) She stare at me..I know she was serious.I will agree if it isn''t unreasoable...go on. "For the festival tomorrow ,I want you to not do anything.please Ezax."(Eliza) I close on my eyes ,and then said. "Fine,but remember..If your life was in danger ,I will act.Break 1 promise is cheap compared to your life."(Ezax) "I understand...also about today.."(Eliza) She immediately blushed and then run away from my room..what''s wrong with her? "......Your denseness was amazing...even me wonder if you are impotent.."(Bahamut) Why you said it too bahamut !!!I am not that dense!!!I know hikari was in love for.example!! "Only blind person can''t see,Talking with you only waste my breath.by the way I forgot brionac won''t be able summoned for 1 week."(Bahamut) Understood.just what happened to brionac? I hope it wasn''t something that danger his life or anything... Chapter 73:Survival festival 01 As today the start of festival,I wore a cloak as usual and hide my face with mask..I don''t like people gathering at me because they want to flawn over me or anything...regardless of that. Many of people mocking us because one of hand being crippled...they mocking me for commiting suicide. After all the island was full of danger..As right now we were left behind from other competitor...While... "Hahahah.."(Eliza) Eliza sweating all over her body,she told me not to do anything. No matter how much people mocked me...I won''t say anything. She want to do it by herself....We need to stay over the island for 1 week.If you think surviving was easy then you would regret it Eliza...This festival after all was very harsh on its competitor. I felt it was too soon for you...I guess I must break our promise.....As we were arrived late many of them have started fighting among themselves..People were fighting among themselves because of food. No one noticed monster were lurking nearby...I noticed Eliza hesitation at her face.But she hither chest lightly and then with confident she hold my other hand. We immediately flee along the coast... ...So she understand her position after all. By saying I won''t do anything mean you know I won''t even talk to you..I will only watch you...Realizing I am burden she choose too run...You choose the right thing. Even if you try to help it won''t change anything. Thought you were still childish...As because your bit your own lips.Soluna who noticed this immediately whisper me in voice she can''t hear.. "Ezax,can you break the promise?Eliza still.."(Soluna) I pretend didn''t hear it,I already promised her I won''t do anything....So I won''t break my promise...Soluna sighed and then try to persuade Eliza but in the end she failed...Eliza was the same type like hikari..She will persist..except she knows when to give up....This time Eliza still persist which made Soluna said..Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel. "Ah,Fine I give up.."(Soluna) Once Soluna says that,she try to say something. Then I wrote a word with a magic to order her.. "Don''t help her..Right now helping her would only give reversed effect...what she need right now was Confidence on herself."(Ezax) As she understand that she didn''t say another word....As we walking along the coast...I noticed Eliza was searching for a cave where we could stay...but in the end there no longer cave where we can stay in...In the end Me and Eliza go futher in forest....but until night...we didn''t found where we can sleep...In the end we sleep nearby cliff that faced in the sea..Once Eliza made bonfire she then noticed she was hungry.... "Sorry,We didn''t eat yet you must hungry right?."(Eliza) Once she said that she immediately run toward the forest.....Dragon magic....Searching drone...activate...as I thought that A kind of ball created in front of me...then it immediately flew followed Eliza. This magic was used to spying dangerous area thought it can be used to peeping I never use it...Even if god force me I won''t because it was criminal act...why I am thinking I noticed Eliza was fighting monster...Leaf tiger..She can handle it easily if it was one..but it was pack..What would you do Eliza?If it was me, I would separate them.... As I become tense watching her ,I see she fight all of them at once ,She use her berserk ability....That is unexpected...with this she only will waste energy......Or so I thought. Because what I saw was....She run from place another and another made herself dirty with mud..to pick some edible mushroom..This girl ,Looks like I judge her incorrectly...soon after picking some edible mushroom that she knows..she immediately return....When she returned she immediately roasted it...It was a mistake. It will become inedible if you do that....But I will keep silent..as soon as she tested it...her face become distorted...But she keep trying...Until it was midnight. and left with 10 mushroom....In the end she give the rest too me and said.. "Sorry,I will try again tomorrow so please bear with this mushroom."(Eliza) I expect she will ask food from spatial ring. I see...Eliza the path you chose was really hard you know....as I thought I immediately pretend to be sleep...But she do the nightwatch instead of me.....The night passes and some beastmen try to rob us because they noticed spatial ring at my hand..yet Eliza easily beat them and kick them to the sea..This keep happening until the sun rise once again.. Eliza finally realized her mistake as she immediately want to move from this spot...But Eliza...you understand right?The feeling carrying burden like now? Chapter 74:Survival festival 02 3rd day,Finally Eliza passed out,I immediately check out her temperature...THanks god she didn''t have fever.I should find cave for her to rest.I immediately put her at my back and then tied herself with me.. "Ezax...WouldEliza be fine?"(Soluna) "Don''t worry,she would be fine,First I will tend her wound First..."(Ezax) As I walking ,I finally arrived at cave where we could stay..It was well hidden....Thought the biggest problem was there was an insect. An insect that beastmen hate,That''s why no one dare to come,well thought they didn''t notice deep inside of the cave ,there is hot water. The insect was called Spring insectby humanity because the place where they gather there were tend to be hotspring. But to beastmen this insect was annoying...because once it touch your body...your body itchy...thought it was easy to made incense which the insect hate...When I arrived. I immediately went inside...once it was deep enough..I begin to put some incense along the way...it would last 5 days...which was enough. Once we arrived at deepest part,I immediately lay down Eliza and begin to undress which led to Soluna comment.. "!!!!WHAT!!?No hesitation?Are you sure you are not gay?"(Soluna) "Shall I throw you to the sea?"(Ezax) "...Sorry,But mind telling me why you are unmoved and do it without slightest hesitation?"(Soluna) "Nothing?I felt there was nothing embarrased about. It is the same if you have daughter ,would you be embarrased if you see her naked?The answer is no right?"(Ezax) I said that,As I bandaged her body,Nothing serious. Once I do that ,I immediately took out some thick wool sheet and then made her sleep. She won''t wake up foran hour I guess.. Well ,Once I do that I then I immediately go to the entrance and then begin chanting..A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. "Barrier of exiled!!"(Ezax) Once I do that a layer of magic appear at cave entrance..I should renew it once a day just to be safe..Now home is complete....I check the weather...It was cloudy. The wind also very strong...It would rain soon I guess...The sky would be darksoon,I guess I shall create simple dish right now....I made some fire...and then begin to made some fried fish..once I do that.I immediately return to the cave..Found out.. that Eliza was still sleeping,I put food beside her...then lean on wall ,I plan to read some book. But then Soluna ask me question... "Ezax,You see you really similar to the cold berseker in legend."(Soluna) "What do you mean?"(Ezax) "Nothing,Important...You will brush it off like always anyway...I would go sleep..Take care Eliza for me okay?"(Soluna) "Understood."(Ezax) Cold berseker eh?That was indeed weird...Welll I would just spend my time reading...while waiting for Eliza to woke up,I noticed someone approaching this cave...Meh. Just some weaklings...from here should be enough...As I took out my bow,I entered archery stance and then I fired some arrow to scare them off....This should be enough... 3 hour later. Eliza finally woke up...As she opened her eyes...she rise her body slowly.. "How are you feeling?"(Ezax) "Ezax,Sorry.."(Eliza) Already feeling dejected...really...I don''t understandEliza way of thinking. "What are saying sorry for?"(Ezax) "I am burden,I can''t do anything to help you..I...I am so useless.."(Eliza) I go toward her and then flickedmy finger on her forehead. "Auw."(Eliza) As she rubbing her own forehead..I immediately said .Then we begin answer and question dialogue. "Eliza,Why do you think you are a burden?"(Ezax) "Because ,I can''t help you.."(Eliza) "Why you can''t help me?"(Ezax) "Becayse,I always fail.."(Eliza) "Why you always fail then?"(Ezax) "Because I have no talent..."(Eliza) "WRONG!!!!"(Ezax) I give a karate chop in the middle of her head. "Hafuh?"(Eliza) "Eliza ,let me told you something...Maybe you think you are lacking..but you have something that everyone didn''t have.."(Ezax) "Eh?"(Eliza) "A desire to improve.You always want to improve yourself in many ways...to me that was more important than talent!!!"(Ezax) "But."(Eliza) "If you fail,then try it again and again. Beside you overestimate too much...it wasn''t like I do everything flawlessly at beginning."(Ezax) "Eh?"(Eliza) "Do you think I am god or something?Even I fail time by time...No one immediately do it perfect.everything starting from zero....That''s why you are not burden..."(Ezax) "...Ezax..Thanks.."(Eliza) Once Eliza smiled,she then immediately stand up...once she do that. She immediately noticed... Ah...I forgot.. "KYAA!!!!"(Eliza) Sorry ELiza...I forgot to turn around.. Chapter 75 :Survival festival 03 "Sight,Why you are sulking like that. It wasn''t like I rape you or anything."(Ezax) Even thought I said that she still show her back to me and was sulking..I don''t understand why she was sulking thought.

THere was so many which made the cave was packet...but it was enough for them.There was also an area which led to hotspring..but there were no beastmen try to go in because it was full of insect they hate. Right now Eliza was waiting..no everyone was waiting for ezax...To others Ezax was source of their hope. To them An SS rank monster was the same as a apocalypse...to beat it you need SS rank adventurer team..or 10.000 or more soldier and 10 templar magician....RIght now they were on verge of despair..if not for ezax become their pillar of hope theywould already fallen into despair yeta day passed,the hero still didn''t appear...slowly all of them become restless.While Eliza was tried her best to cheer them up. When the night But then Ezax appeared and was look unscathed. Made all of them feel relieved..As they begin to gather at Ezax. Ezax immediately told them.. "Everyone there was no need to worry,That''s why please bet at ease and have a good rest. Tomorrow we will escape from this island and regroup with everyone in mainland..that''s why please rest......"(Ezax) Soon Ezax explained ...Immediately everyone become relieved...they then immediately fallen asleep. While Ezax told Eliza He will sleep over at hotspring area and also forbide everyone even her to come in.Eliza was worried as she waited for a bit until everyone asleep...then she wake up in the middle of night..She sense something from Ezax but she can''t tell what is wrong with him. When she arrived at hotspring...she noticed there was a blood trail.Soon she saw Ezax was leaning on wall. While held hands on his stomach. "Ezax!!!"(Eliza) "Eliza..I told you not to come here...*."(Ezax) Eliza didn''t listen and immediately moved his hand away from his stomach and noticed Ezax was wounded.It was very heavy wound...Ezax was tried to froze it...but it was failed.The reason was because when he successfuly escape ,he clash again with mysterious girl. Seeing the curse wasn''t lifted the girl put another curse and at the same time give this heavy wound before he was able to escape. The reason he was appeared day later was because he need to dress himself..Right now he was the pillar of support of many people...He shouldn''t made them anxious. That''s why he hide his wound..Eliza immediately knows what Ezax was thinking. She immediately take out some potion and made him drink it.but nothing happened. "The wound was cursed too. Don''t worry..I won''t die from something like this.."(Ezax) "...Ezax,I know you are valued me more than your life...but why?Why you risk your life this just for me?Why you risk your life just for us?Stranger you don''t know?"(Eliza) "...You would understand that..someone kind like you will understand...that''s why please return.

"Eliza..Don''t...make ..everyone worry...please."(Ezax) "...Okay.."(Eliza) Eliza reluctantly agreed. She slowly exited the cave..the outside was raining. She take a cover on nearby tree and begin to cry...She wonders why she was so weak?Why she can''t protect anything?Everyone said she have talent...everyone said she just need time to be strong...yet...yet...she can''t even help the person she loved....She was really useless...Even now if she killed herself and the curse will be dispelled..Ezax would still die....after all he was on verge of dying...She want to save him..but she can''t do anything... "Ezax. I...I..."(Eliza) "Young girl...Do you want a power?"(Brionac) Suddenly a chibi dragon appeared in front of her...A small ice colored chibi dragon was looking at her with blue eyes... "You can dispel ezax curse,you can become girl that able to stand beside her...with your berserk ability and my ability. Your talent will be blossomed."(Brionac) "...Really?"(Eliza) The dragon nod its head. "It comes with heavy prices...do you still wish for this power?"(Brionac) "...No matter what kind of price.I will pay it..so please?"(Eliza) "Then ...Would you be able to give him your virginity?"(Brionac) Hear that Eliza blushed for a while,but immediately nodded. "I am just joking...thought regarding.power....I want you to make an oath."(Brionac) "An Oath?"(Eliza) "Yes,A marriage oath. You wil-"(Brionac) "I will do it...So please lent me your power.."(Eliza) Hear this brionac ask her question... "Don''t you question me?When a strange person ask this won''t you wonder-"(Brionac) "You are Ezax ''s dragon,if Ezax trust you then I will trust you.."(Eliza) "Think it carefully,This oath won''t allow you to love another man...even after Ezax Died you weren''t allowed to remarry...Are you sure about this?"(Brionac) "As long Ezax can survive...I will sacrifice anything...That''s why...please save Ezax."(Eliza) "...Then follow me and do as I said. Let''s save Master."(Brionac) Ezax POV Why?Why my body felt so warm.?It also doesn''t hurt..Did I died? "ax.."(Eliza) That vivid voice?Eliza? "Ezax,open your eyes.."(Eliza) I opened my eyes slowly...Eliza then immediately hug me... "Thanks goodness...."(Eliza) ..what?Why it doesn''t hurt?I shouldn''t be heavily wounded. Hmm?Since when I wear bracelet?As I am still confused Eliza then explain to me.. "Ezax,your curse already dispelled..That''s why I am used potion at you and heal your wounds."(Eliza) "..I see,but how you dispel the curse?"(Ezax) "..That''s.."(Eliza) Suddenly Brionac ride over my head and said. "Because both of you already married and allows me to use my ice to cure you. Consider that pair of bracelet my wedding gift.In human continent it was the same as a wedding ring..So treat it carefully and don''t lost it.Also master..my ice trait was able to froze this kind of curse and then shatter it..right now there was nothing can curse you. That''s all...when you were ready to battle SS rank monster..Please call me.."(Brionac) As brionac said..that he immediately turn into light and go inside of me...me and Eliza married?Maybe fafnir considered be king of mischief...Now I shall handed it over toward Brioanac!!!Also to think he used marriage oath(an item) that I got from dungeon...Kuh!!!Even thought it can be emergency money..well I still have 6 of them... "Ezax ,I am sorry...I do this without your permission.It was fine...if you want to divorce me after all It just sa-."(Eliza) "Forget it,what matters was that you able to save me. Since it already happened ,there was no other choice...beside marrying you was not that bad after all."(Ezax) As long it wasn''t with that wolf and certain persistent girl. I don''t mind at all.. "Ezax."(Eliza) "Still ,it doesn''t change anything to our situation. Even If I am completely healed...we still in tight spot.."(Ezax) Then suddenly it was brionac that appeared...thought He was completely beaten up...what happen inside of my heart? "Don''t worry about it...master. Dragon ascension.. it would be able to beat the monster easily... that''s why first I wil-.."(Brionac) I grab its head and begin tighten my grip.. "Before that?Why I don''t hit you for a bit?Since among my dragon only you who never beaten by me and become naughty.."(Ezax) "....MAster..please..I am only think what was important to you.."(Brionac) "Ezax,don''t blame him...it was my fault...after all."(Eliza) Sight...why there was no normal dragon among my dragon?I have 7 yet ...why all of them were abnormal? "HEY!!!That''s rude!!!!"(The rest of dragon except bahamut) Chapter 78:Survival Festival 06 " Anyway Forget about that Idiotic dragon,Eliza I heard from Brionac that you gain special ability because of me?"(Ezax) I said that while pointed on the stupid dragon that I tied behind me... Eliza nodded and then she explained. "Instead of special ability ,it was more likely you lending me your ability toward me.So-."(Eliza) The voice was so tiny which made barely can hear it. "Can you kiss me?"(Eliza) "....Wait ,don''t tell me to use it I must kiss you?"(Ezax) Eliza nodded embarassly....Now you mention it..Fafnir also made me kiss Hikari. Sight...Were they kiss maniac? "That''s rude!!!"(Fafnir) "You go back,no one asked for your opinion."(Ezax) When I asked you a question you never answer me....yet this kind of thing you answer me seriously. What a pain in the ass. Back to main topic.. "Kissing for gaining more power...what kind of joke is this?"(Ezax) If I didn''t do it with my own eyes I won''t believe it. While I thinking this I see Eliza was a bit dissapointed.. "Why you were dissapointed like that?"(Ezax) "No,It just to us girls kiss wasmean that you reciprocate their love. Thought it was embarrasing..."(Eliza) Oh I see,that explain why Hikari kept bothering me that I love her. Never expect to be that deep.The reason why she was dissapointed because the way I see it..Since we are married,I must make her happy,it would be a shame for a man to make his woman cry. "Sorry,I don''t know...Please take this as an apology."(Ezax) I immediately pull her closer and kiss her.. For a moment none of us moved....once we separate with each other. Eliza immediately blushed and look from me bashfully....seeing her embarrased....made me embarrased myself...While observing her I noticed there was something shining at my hand,when I take off my gloves I noticed there was kind of crest that appear at back of my hand..a crest that shine vividly in Ice color..this is?Noticed me Eliza immediately shake her head and then said. "Brionac said it was the proof that dragon ascension was complete. Your eyes will change into sapphire color .."(Eliza)Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. "Really?"(Ezax) I immediately take out a mirror and saw my eyes color indeed changed. Soon after checking the mirror the crest soon vanished and my eyes color change back to normal. I see.. "Mm!!MM!!"(Brionac) Ignore someone rambling for time being..I believe brionac already told Eliza majority of it..He wasn''t short sighted after all.I believe in him...maybe.. "Ezax,I believe uncle brionac can tell us more...That''s why can you release him?"(Eliza) For my dragon to be pitied by my own wive..I felt so ashamed..Next time I will punished him secretly. I thought that as I released his rope that tied both of his mouth and body. He who immediately released. "Please ,Forgive for what I have done master.."(Brionac) Looks like he genuinely reflecting. I will forgive him because this is his first time offends. Back to the main topic. "Brionac,Can you explain about this dragon ascension?"(Ezax) "Yes master."(Brionac) Brionac then immediately turned solemn and said.. "Dragon ascension were an ability to be able to use my power,the power of Ice dragon king Completely!!"(Brionac) Completely?Holy crap!!!Brionac often said to completely master his power I need a lot of time,yet just by used I can use?That explain a lot why the curse was cured...after all brionac said once I mastered my power I can even completely freeze ghost or curse that can''t be seen with naked eyes. If I can wield his power completely that means my magic affinity with Ice must be increased while I used Dragon ascension...Before that I also gain stronger body I think? "Ezax,My dragon ascension completely enchance your your durability also made me become your weapon..even if it destroyed as long you don''t die I would recovered..."(Brionac) A defensive ability...that was rather suited Brionac..after majority of Brionac ability was control type it suited very well... "I believe there was an another ability beside this,after all Eliza completely dispel my curse wasn''t it? Was that means we shared the same ability?"(Ezax) "Yes,master was right. As long my dragon ascencion was activated Eliza was respectively same ability as you...and able to use your magic with your magic as its energy."(Brionac) ..What a absurd ability. I believe dragon ascension was ability that belong to dragoon...For every dragon have a chance to use it.it would be a huge problem...But I believe there was a price to pay .. "Brionac ,was there any side effect and how long this last?"(Ezax) "Right now ,you only be able to activate it for 1 hour if you just keep standing...but 30 minutes at best if you fight serious battle..Dragon ascension burning your magic at alarming rate..but for side effect..there was none..You can activate it anytime.."(Brionac) "Seriously?That explains a lot why dragoon was the strongest race.."(Ezax) Certainly a dragoon was cheat being. I shall think twice before heading there..While I was thinking this brionac said. "Regarding dragoon ascension you were different compared to dragoon...Me and Fafnir will explain it later. Right now please sleep and have a rest. To Dispel your curse took a lot of energy..Have a good night master."(Brionac) Brionac said that as he become light and go Inside me. Now we were left alone... "Eliza,I am sorry to dragged you because of this."(Ezax) "No,It''s fine.."(Eliza) "Eliza,Regarding marriage oath..do you know about it?"(Ezax) "I heard from Brionac..When I used it...as long we weere within 5000 metres we can know each other conditions and locations. It can only be used by man and woman."(Eliza) "Yes,that was right,regardless of that..there was many nobles were willing to pay for it. But it often made trust issue between nobles and create a lot of fight....even thought it was convenient...at the same time it was disaster...."(Ezax) "What do you mean?"(Eliza) "Eliza,what do you think if you found me walking near brothel?"(Ezax) "I .."(Eliza) "You would be mad right?But it would be a lot of worse If I was in other woman house ,someone that you think I am interested in?You would hate me right?"(Ezax) Eliza can''t comment on that..that was normal.. "Jealously was a scary thing after all. Thought basically It was the same as slave contract.Eliza you should consider breaking this.."(Ezax) "No,it''s fine...I believe if it was you ..you wouldn''t missuse it .After all you were very kind Ezax.."(Eliza) Since she believe me this much..then I shall repaid..repaid her for saving my live and loving me..I immediately give my hand toward her.. "Eliza,I will do my best to make you happy.So...Are you willing to be my wife .Eliza?"(Ezax) I want to propose her at least...Even thought it was late it was better than nothing. Beside..I felt Eliza will be happier this way.don''t know why thought.....Eliza with teary eyes take my hand and then smiled at me.. "Yes.."(Eliza) Fate sure was strange thing wasn''t it..at the same time..I didn''t know.. She was thesecond among the seven... Chapter 79:Survival festival 07 ".....This should be enough.."(Ezax) I said that as I satisfied by look at 1000 Ice spear I created. It was evening when I finished... This spear was made by brionac Ice...It should hinder his regenaration for a bit also it was a special catalyst.....It was already noon when I finished when I finished.It took me quite a while... "Ezax,I am finished."(Eliza) "Thanks,so how was it?"(Ezax) There was 100 hundred beastmen based on we saved yesterday. I told her to do some javelin test and select 50 at best if they were that good... "50 of them can do it,and all of them have good accuracy...looks like because it was survival festival many of the people remain here was rank from C-B in term adventuring."(Eliza) "I see,how about the others?Do you found any survivor other than us?"(Ezax) "Yes,but many of them were heavily injured,I also already do the test for beastmen were injured..which result 50 because of it.."(Eliza) "How much total survivor you found."(Ezax) "213,167 have heavy injury,while 30 have light injury and 16 were unijured."(Eliza) "I see then have you treat the injured first?or were there any life threatening injury?"(Ezax) "No ,there wasn''t."(Eliza) "I see,thanks for your help.."(Ezax) I sweep all of the ice spear and put in on my spatial ring. "Let''s go rest Eliza,We must prepare our energy to fight in midnight.."(Ezax) "Nn."(Eliza) Eliza nod her head and as we just took a single step. "C''mom both of you are no fun at all. Why there was no baby making?It was chance since you were alone and no one here."(Soluna) Eliza immediately blushed... "Oi Eliza,Throw This pervert to the sea once everything over."(Ezax) "Yes."(Eliza) "Wait,Wait !!!Seriously!! both of you are too passive!!!!!"(Soluna) "...Ignore her.."(Ezax)This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there. She was too heated up because yesterday like a mom worried about her daughter...Well I didn''t met her mom yet...So I don''t know..To begin with just who was soluna?Once we arrived at cave...it was fully packed....but it wasn''t that cramped..rather it was rather spacious...because I dig some wall when I come here...once I give them summary of my plans...I immediately sleep deeper in the cafe. Once it was midnight..we immediately go outside of the cave.. TIme to fight.. Narrator POV Flying at high sky ...the mysterious girl was watching Ezax started his plan "Hmm,So that was the guy that chosen by brionac...Indeed that child fit my taste.."(Phoenix) "..They already make the basic pact...It should be enough them to beat this SS rank monster.."(Mysterious girl) "Hey,Quit sulking like that...I know he is your husband. But both of you were reverted to baby to gain our power and he suffer amnessia because of the side effect..."(Phoenix) ".....Stop it phoenix..I didn''t want to hear rant from you useless wife.."(Mysterious girl) "Hey!!it wasn''t like that!!!I was because brionac never let me once do housework!!"(Phoenix) "...Quiet..the battle start soon..."(Mysterious girl) As she said that...50 Spear was thrown toward the war kraken that just surfaced .70% of it stabbed the kraken head aand remain as it..Once it roared in pain. Ezax appeared with whip that made from ice. It hit the war kraken first tentacles....Ezax hit repeatly,once it gone limp because the coldness . Eliza appeared and cut the tentacle...the ice freeze the inner muscle made the magic can''t be flowEvery monster have mana flow inside his body.once the mana stop flowing..the muscle severely weaken and can be cut easily like a tofu.....once it was cut like a tofu..Ezax immediately freeze the tentacle that were cut made it can''t regenerate... and retreat together with Eliza to deep inside of forest...... "..Ah,I see...That was his plan huh.."(Mysterious girl) "Heh?"(Phoenix) "Phoenix,explaining to idiot like you only would waste my breath.....so can you just watch it?"(Mysterious girl) "Damn!I am your senior okay!!at least respect me a little."(Phoenix) THe mysterious girl ignored the phoenix....and then watch the war kraken go throught the forest Following the bastard that hit...soon another wave javelin was fired but this time...it was 80% hit...Once it roared in pain oce again...but yet the wave was keep going. The war kraken was very arrogant...it never hurt this much before..So the kraken immediately go to where the wave javelin fired........but then...it fall a bit on bottomless lake....even thought he was falling..it was more likely a light sleep...but it was enough...Soon the whip was flying and bind the kraken.Once it done...The rest of Ice javelin immediately fired...It stabbed all over the kraken body made it like a giant porcupine. It roared in pain ,but then soon the whip pulled back and at same time.. "Dragon magic. Ice coffin."(Ezax) An ice immediately enveloped kraken and prevent him from doing any movement...yet it eyes still moving around...As it doesn''t understood. Ice javelin was used as catalyst...at the same time..the water at lake was used catalyst. because of it...it can be frozen easily and Ezax made the ice harder than usual... "The reason war kraken was an SS rank because it was regeneration. As long it wasn''t instantly killed it would just regenerate. Now it can''t move and his whole magic was frozen it should be able to killed with a single attack...yet because brionac ice was extremely hard...My power alone wasn''t sufficient to destroy it. Excal ."(Ezax) A sword appeared on Ezax right hand while ezax left holding the whip that bind itself like a handle of sword and then become an ice sword... "Let''s go Eliza.."(Ezax) "Mn."(Eliza) Eliza nodded her head and then both of them run toward the huge chunk ice as they dragged their weapon.....then they crossed each other and formed a cross on ground... "Dragon battle arts,Cross Ice break."(Ezax and Eliza) The ice then shatter into tiny pieces as it can''t withstood the damage we give.... "...We...WE DID IT!!!"(Beastmen) "We beat SS rank monster!!!!!"(Other beastmen) Seeing everyone cheered up ,Ezax let out relieved breath....Right now he just want to sleep..Creating that huge ice cost him a lot of magic power......Thought he underestimated something.. "Brionac power...It was really cheat...yet I still have 6 other power like this. Still in this world a strength needed...I must train my hardest...I must use this to protect everyone!"(Ezax) Hearing this while flying above...the mysterious girl only grit her teeth and said.. ".....Why you must suffer amnesia?...Also..Why I am an failed product...I am so useless.."(Mysterious girl) After all the experiment...was ruined because her uselessness after all... Chapter 80:Survival Festival Epilogue. At night.. "...I am tired...."(Ezax) I said that as I fall on bed.. Since the festival was cancelled..I didn''t go the ship...I am already dissapointed because of that...yet people keep thanking me...thought some of noble was bootlicking me but I pretend didn''t see anything..because of that I am godly tired. Eliza was on other room informed everyone ,Thought I told her too keep them away from my room..I am too tired...as my eyes become sleepy... "Ezax!!!"(Hikari ) "My prince!!!"(Elicia) "Onii-sama!!!"(Seria) "You ,you,you...Get out...I am so sleepy...."(Ezax) I point at them consicutively. Can you see I just want to have good rest..these past week,I was lacking of sleep. Not to mention there was too many things happening yesterday..not to mention it took me a long time to create a ice boat to carry everyone....So just let me sleep please.....still looks they didn''t met eliza yet because they wasn''t here... "Ah,sorry have a good night ."(Hikari) "Sleep well."(Elicia) "Have a good night oni-sama."(Seria) Thanks good they can read the mood right now...Realizing that I immediately relieved and fall asleep..... The next morning. ".....No wonder...It felt so cramped."(Ezax) Even thought it was double bed because I already considered Eliza would come in to sleep too if she want...but there was 3 univited guest....I already told fafnir and brionac!!!but first... "GET THE FUCK OUT !!!!!3 OF YOU!!!"(Ezax) I kick 3 of them outside of bed.... "Heh?"(Hikari) "Oni-sama!!!"(Seria) "..My prince~~~"(Elicia) All of them regain in their balance in air and land on ground unschated.....So they already expect this huh?Cih. ".......Ezax..."(Eliza)You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story. Eliza wake up,as she rubs her eyes she look around....and then said.. "Eh?Why everyone here?"(Eliza) She said that as she stand and approach everyone. "Ask them don''t ask me..."(Ezax) "Sorry it was my mistake..."(Fafnir) ...Ah that voice...SO IT WAS YOUR FAULT!!!!!As fafnir appeared in front of us......he immediately run behind Hikari...You piece of shit...Just you wait fafnir.. "Elicia,Seria would you please leave me,hikari,and Eliza alone?"(Fafnir) "Okay,I have something to do begin with."(Elicia) Elicia left the room,From her tone..Paper work eh? "I understand..Onii-sama,I will wait at other room...then...."(Seria) After that seria also exited the room....left us alone.. "Typhon."(Fafnir) "Understood.."(Typhon) Soon typhon cast magic,Vacuum room. A magic that created so no one can hear us...It was used to keep something secret because it was vital for the kingdom or any country..Thought it cost me a quite a lot. "Now Ezax,I will told you about yours dragon ascension which was different among other dragoons..."(Fafnir) "....Tell me then.."(Ezax) "First regarding your race....You aren''t dragoon nor you human...Ezax you are the race that was a legend among dragoon...Dragonewt. Dragonewt was that half human blood and dragoon blood in their vine. Unlike other living being..your blood was extremely special which made the king of dragoons want to kill you... Until this do you have any question?."(Fafnir) "I see,So I was entirely different race....well in the end it made no differents....fafnir can you explain why my blood was so special?"(Ezax) "The reason why it was so special...because of your blood held 7 different race trait...Vitality of berserker,Strength of beastmen,growth of human,swiftness of Mermaid,Intillegence of elf and Finally magic of dragoon."(Fafnir) "........"(Ezax) Isn''t this too overpowered? No wonder Why everyone tell me I am too omnipotent.. "But right now your race trait was still in dormant state...Right now You could be considered the weakest race...Because when you were born your trait was sealed by someone else....To be honest I was surprised for you to achieved this far just with diligence and your own sweat..."(Fafnir) ....... "Still your special trait can be activated for a while if you used your dragon ascension....Even thought it come with requirement....which was to bonding with the race with its respective trait...for example to activated berseker trait you need to bondingwith Eliza or if you want to activated human trait which was growth..you need to be bonding with Hikari.."(Fafnir) "Fafnir ...what do you mean by bonding?"(Ezax) "Loving and trusting each other,the more you love her and trust her..the stronger your bond with...the higher your bonds..the higher trait you can use.It was divided into 3 level....until this do you have any question?"(Fafnir) "...Please continue.."(Ezax) Fafnir noddid his head and then continue to explain. "The bond level was divided into soulmate stage,lover stage,wife stage. Well right now Eliza have the highest position which was at soulmate stage...but because the love was only soulmate stage you can only draw 20% of the defense of berseker...while Hikari was not even soulmate stage yet ,so you can only use 10% of human growth when you activated dragon ascension...Wait Ezax...Why you facepalmed.."(Fafnir) "Fafnir,wait I understand Eliza...at least it I am not loved her yet...But why Hikari?I never do anything good for him."(Ezax) "Noob,go to hell!!!!!!A noob that doesn''t understand his own heart and woman hearts deserved to die.."(Fafnir) "FUCK YOU SHITTY DRAGON!!!!WHY KIND OF ABSURD LIES YOU SPOUTING!!!!!!NOW YOU WOULD TELL ME TO MAKE HAREM WASN''t THAT RIGHT?THEN I REFUSE!!!!LIVING WITH incomprehensible CREATURE THAT I DON''T UNDERSTAND ,WILL KILL ME!!!"(Ezax) "Then study about woman you noob!!!Don''t you see it was fortune!!!Do you even know how hard was it to get my own wife?You SHITTY NOOB!!WHY YOU DON''t BELIEVE THIS OLD MAN!!!!"(Fafnir) "OLd man?OLD MAN MY ASS!!!Want to FIGHT?"(Ezax) "BRING IT!! YOU UNGRATEFUL CHILD!!!"(Fafnir) "YOU SHITTY DRAGON!!!"(Ezax) Narrator POV. "Somehow they forgot about us...."(Eliza) "It was fine,rather I envy him.....After all only when he was talking with his dragon he show his true self.."(hikari) "That''s true...but Hikari doesn''t it surprise you?Even when brionac explain it to me...I still pained me a bit..After all he was destined to marry 5 other girls than us.."(Eliza) "Yes,but Eliza what surprised me the most...was there other race beside 5 majority of race...I never expect you were berseker race...but...what shocked me the most...there were other race..Wasn''t it was exciting?Kyaa!!!I want too meet her!!!I want to see it!!!!"(Hikari) Her eyes begin sparkling like a child..While titania and kagome sit on seria shoulder...Without anyone realizing..Seria was eavesdropping them... "Dragonewt,7th race...does it mean...The ''Celestial'' exist?"(Seria) If dragoon race didn''t have dragon reside in their body...they would be completely lost to this race...An Omnipotent race..that have all of the trait..Celestial..... "....I hope we didn''t meet them."(Seria) Chapter 81:The night camp.. 1 week later. It has been week since that SS rank monster and me being poisoned accident. Because of that the king me wished me to granted an award thought this just was an excuse. After all the king would wish to fight againt me considering he was battle maniac. If not for the world being in danger I don''t want to meet him.Right now we were on our way to main capital......Right now there was someone lay on my lap lifelessly... "...That''s why I told you to stop reading book in the horse carriage yet you don''t listen...."(Ezax) "Ugh.."(Hikari) Hikari was lay on my lap....Her face was so pale that made everyone felt sorry for her...well to be exact...There was 2 person that being sick. One of them was rested on Ezax shoulder..her face also pale..It was quite common sickness they suffer..Which was motion sickness... "Au..."(Elicia) "That''s why I told both of you to quit reading on horse carriage,sight..."(Ezax) Even Ezax doesn''t dare to read a book in horse carriage...yet because today there was a piece of literature they like. SInce they have some hobby they still liked this kind of childish story. Still for them to read it 4 hour straight in this kind of moving carriage...it was normal for them to have motion sickness... While Seria was chatting me with me majority of time. SHe liked to hear a story ... But there was an oddball...which was Eliza...She read the book about ice magic that I written for her ...She was truly serious yet she didn''t suffer motion sickness.. I envy her ~~ Soon Eliza close the book..Then she put it away. Then Eliza said. "Sorry,Ezax once we take a break...would you mind teach me more about magic?"(Eliza) "Ok."(Ezax) "...Oni-sama...Can I join aswell?"(Seria) "Sure,I don''t mind."(Ezax) "Please bring us asw-Ue.."(Hikari and Elicia) Hikari and Elicia suddenly butt in..but they immediately felt bad..If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement. "For both of you please sleep first..."(Ezax) I don''t want you becomesick more than this...Really...I don''t understand why they like my lesson very much. Narrator POV After taking a break and listening to Ezax. right now Eliza and Seria was taking night watch...While watching the fire Seria then said toward Eliza.. "Eliza,you are lucky."(Seria) "...?Why you suddenly say so?"(Eliza) "Onii-chan see you as woman,while she see me as sister...even Thought we aren''t blood related."(Seria) "No wonder.."(Eliza) "Eh?Weren''t you surprised?"(Seria) "No,I already realized since you join us...The way you see Ezax...It was really similar to Hikari herself...even Hikari noticed you are not his real sister."(Eliza) "Eh Hikari?That persistent spoiled little girl?"(Hikari) "Don''t treat her as an Idiot. She was sharper than Ezax..Far more sharper to be honest.."(Eliza) Eliza,was sure about this....Even though her best friend looks like a spoiled girl,she was different like other rich girl....because she was princess...many people often come her to asked for a marriage since she was 5 years old.She was also never spoiled by her own father and mother. Which made her grow adult faster than normal people..Because of that she can judge people correctly. "Sharp huh,But why she love onii-chan?Based on what onii-chan said...I didn''t see any reason for her to love him. I didn''t believe girl sharp as her believe such a thing like a fall in love at first sight.."(Seria) "The reason hikari falls in love with Ezax....Maybe it was the same as me.."(Eliza) "?"(Seria) "Hikari once said...The reason she fall in love with Ezax...was because he didn''t ridicule her dream ..unlike others.N o ..it wasn''t just that.Her parents...her uncle..everyone near her evenmyself was convicedher was impossible...after all human having enmity with other races was real...Rather no one attempt to make a peace with each other...the same with beast men and other race.Once she planned to give up,But then he come across with rumour...A single guy...That brought the war of human and beastmen to the end..An he was around her age too...since that day Hikari was yearn to become adventurer.. because of that the king and queen didn''t allow her to escape from castle and confine her in the castle...until....Ezax kidnap her..."(Eliza) Seria can''t say anything...Humanity relationship was way more complex than dragoon. After all it was norm for dragoon to form polygamy...that''s why no one attach that great importance for her..Eliza then continue. "To Hikari. Ezax was everything..It was who give her hope and won''t abandon her. A truly dazzling Knight"(Eliza) "Nonononoo!!!!!!Ezax was a prince"(Hikari) Suddenly Hikari interjected...It was time to change shift.She just woke up and heard Ezax was a knight...made her can''t accept it.. "No!!!!I won''t accept it!!!!Ezax was knight on shining armor!!!he wasn''t a prince!!!"(Eliza) Because Eliza prefer Ezax in her armor. Rather she prefer White knight like in legend rather than prince.!!!! "NO!!!I can''t let that slide!!!Onii-sama are my brother!!!A brother whote dote on his little sister!!!!He just a normal brother!!Not a knight nor prince!!!"(Seria) "Prince was more fit him!!!"(Hikari) "A knight!!!"(Eliza) "A brother !!!"(Seria) They begin argue with each other...somehow they didn''t notice Ezax not on her tent...2 Km from the camp.. "What do you want.."(Ezax) "I just want to give you a simple tips..your sister seria..she was not your blood sister.."(Mysterious girl) "...I already know.."(Ezax) Chapter 82: Complex relationship (01) "I already realized that since long ago,So why you tell me these?"(Ezax) I found it was confusing,I just didn''t understand what this girl want...even Thought I realized she wasn''t enemy,but she wasn''t ally either. In fact...I already speculated a bit. Once Father and mother tell me about the legendary race that was equal with dragoon in combat strength...The celestial...If she was celestial then that makes sense. "Oh,I see since you already know then you shall form a pack with her soon. If you able to use dragon ascension of bahamut.You would be able to achieve SS rank adventurer am I wrong?.."(Mysterious girl) "....."(Ezax) Just who is she?For her able to know this..This was abnormal...Even my dragon didn''t notice it...but since I do a marriage contract with Eliza my defense raise considerably...even without ascension. Right now I was indeed on S rank and I felt I would become SS ranker. Guild card only raised based on the body strength..This was included by magic. The reason why guild card able to know this..was because there was a certain kind of magic item ,it was called observer metal. The metal able to change color by depending on person strength.This girl must have kind of myterious magic. But the magic to observe person cability was ancient magic that has been long lost. Still I never told anyone about being S ranker. majority of people only knows me being B ranker at most..even if she speculate...How the hell she know just how much exactIy need to achieve SS rank? This magic must be a high ranked one...and if she able to do this without me or my dragon noticing..This girl...As I glare at her..she only said.. "Don''t glare me like that,Since you already told by dragon what you are...you should know everything I done for you."(Mysterious girl) She only smiled bitterly when I glared at her...At the same time sadness from her eyes. Noticing this I stop glare at her..She then said...Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road. "...So you didn''t completely dorget about me.."(Mysterious girl) ".?"(Ezax) What are she talking about. "You would know who am I once you remember.I hope you remember about my name soon Ezax.."(Mysterious girl) Once the girl said that she vanished in the darkness... "I guess,I will return before anyone noticed I am missing. "(Ezax) But when I return they were arguing with each other..thought I didn''t know what they are arguing about. The next day. "Exhibition match?"(Ezax) "Yes,father want to fight you.After all father was battle junkie.."(Elicia) "...Elicia,do you think I am an idiot?Wasn''t it tradition of royal family to snatch the bride from her father?"(Ezax) "I don''t know what are you talking about.."(Elicia) It was tradition for royalty of this continent,if they refused to do arranged marriage for the person love , the person they chose must be stronger than their and accepted by their father.Even I know Beast king have favoring me.not to mention that guy wants me to marry Elicia when I turn 17. Thought I reject it..he still didn''t give up huh?Still defeat wasn''t option after all the result was the same.....It just my last name would be different...That''s all.. "Kuh!!!I envy your father.."(Hikari) "Hehehe,after all my father was daughter con."(Elicia) "..Wu,I envy you..After all my father didn''t care me at all."(Eliza) .....If both of your father heard this they would cry you know. It just they aren''t direct like Elicia parent. Seria who heard this her face darkened... "Onii-sama!!!let''s do the plan-E!!"(Seria) She said that aloud so everyone can heard it. But I know what is plan E...A fake girlfriend plan....It was used byme to destroy some fox that pursue her...But this time the role was reversed.. "Seria,We ar-."(Ezax) "Onii-sama~~"(Seria) Seria said that with smile,but there was dark and sinister aura surround her..which made everyone shiver including me... "...Okay...I would do it.."(Ezax) I would just accept it,making her angry was not a choice..Not to mention...She would be certainly an help for me to counter that cunning beast king. Narrator POV. "....This time it was your turn. Take care your own brother Raven. After all only you that could handle bahamut."(Mysterious girl) "Yes,master. So can I kick her out?The fox that kill onii-sama in previous live?"(Raven) "Do as you wish.."(Mysterious girl) The mysterious girl said that as she look at the horse carriage. "Ezax,maybe you would hate for this...I also don''t mind it..after all I don''t want to repeat it again..I don''t want you to repeat the tragedy.."(Mysterious girl) Chapter 83:Complex relationship 02 Lost ancient beast city section 4. "It still a week before we arrived at next city,but we still need to resupply so don''t lost this chance and have a good rest."(Ezax) I said toward all of them..As we arrived at a big inn the coach immediately excuse himself. Since I am already fully recovered I would do it myself...beside...Pulled by horse was way too slow....I would buy the Yellow bird. It was a bird famous for its speed and strength . It had a long neck and feather engulfed their body..on outside they look fat...but they were the fastest runner I known...even thought it was expensive..It was better than listening girl''s talk...just sitting there made me anxious..not to mention if it was you that they were talking about surely it was living hell...just being sit there made me embarrased.......Once we finished booking room,I immediately go to hotspring...that was specialty of this inn.....I book it for 30 minutes...but once I get out I noticed...In my own room There was Elicia was reading books ,Seria was wiping her katana with handkerchief.while Eliza and Hikari playing card...Hikari have a winstreak because of cheating thought. "...Why I keep losing.."(Eliza) "Hur hur ,since it was my win today your swe-."(Hikari) I hit her head from behind. This glutton..just for food you cheat on your friends?Have a shame will you? "Auw...why you hit me?"(Hikari) "Do you need to ask?You cheat on your friend just forfood?Have a shame will you!!!"(Ezax) "Don''t blame me!!!You sweet was way too addicting."(Hikari) Hear that both of seria and Elicia ear twiched and they look at me curiously...Shi-t..I told you to keep it quiet!!!!!!!If you told both of them then my supply would lessen in alarming rate..I don''t know how much Elicia eat...but Seria?Are you joking on me?She have black hole in her stomach if she eat sweet!!!!!!That''s why, whenshe join I never cooked sweet!!!Hikari only give me a smug look..Damn it!!!Hikari you underestimate her stomach capability. "Well,everyone please rest,I hav-"(Ezax) I immediately turn around and then prepared to leave..but Seria already grabbed my shoulder...Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more.

"Onii-sama the best!!!"(Seria) "Hahhahaha.."(Ezax) My heart was bleeding..Ugh..shit it was so painful...Both of hikari and Eliza was shocked beyond belief.Only Elicia act as usual...But still all of them eat a lot of sweet..50% of supply was gone..Hiks..It wasn''t cheap either...I should restock the ingredients.Still...Seria wasn''t even full...God...just what kind of stomach that she had?Also excal,Kagome and titania only eat little compared to the rest... "I...I would go shopping first.."(Ezax) "Ah oni-sama let me go with you.."(Seria) ....I am too lazy to respond..rather I didn''t have any energy to refuse her.. Narrator POV. Once both of them left ,Elicia immediately gave them a remark. "...Glutton family."(Elicia) "I understand why Seria was glutton,but why Ezax too?"(Hikari) Hikari was confused,even thought ezax eat quite a lot..but it wasn''t that much. "You never heard say he was hungry didn''t you?"(Elicia) "No,he never said it even once."(Eliza) "Then let me tell you...The tale of Ezax wolf down 1000 Dish."(Elicia) Ezax''s POV "Fuh,It was quite expensive."(Ezax) I said that as I bought necessary ingredients for the sweet. But it should be enough for time being... "Onii-sama was that everything?"(Seria) "Yep,now what do you want to do seria?"(Ezax) "Hmm..how about walking around..It was already long time since it was just us."(Seria) "Sure."(Ezax) Since she help me to lower the price I guess I will do as what she said.. we just walk around and have fun. Seria act like curious child as I explain to her. In the end she just a child at core. We keep walking around until it was evening...right now we were watching the city from tower which located in the middle of city.. "Onii-sama,today sure was fun right?"(Seria) "Yeah,but seria are you abou this?"(Ezax) Seria didn''t ask me to buy anything even when I said it was suit her.....which made me felt bad quite a bit. "There was no need after all being together with Onii-sama were already enough.."(Seria) "What a liar!!!Deep inside you felt it wasn''t enought right?Crafty thief!!!"(????) Who?As we immediately turn around...we saw a large black crow behind us. The crow looked at us and then said.. "Ckckck,Onii-sama you should reprimand your master!!!!!Do you want to repeat that "accident" again?A girl like michel that kill both of us..."(?????) Heard that I immediately know who onii-sama that she were talking about.....This time all of my dragon immediately commented. "Two timing eh?"(Tiamat) "...Was this the truth bahamut?"(Brionac) "Ara ,ara ,ara?You like that kind sort of play bahamut?"(Leviathan) "This...it was so unexpected."(Typhoon) "Bahamut-san?was she the older sister or your younger sister."(Kulshedra) "....Bahamut.."(Fafnir) Except fafnir everyone were playing around. But bahamut keep quiet...While a white dragon of seria appeared..It had been long time since she appeared... "Raven.."(Michel) "Enemy really fated to meet again.The one that killed Onii-sama and me...."(Raven) "No you are mistaken!!!"(Michel) "SHUT IT!!!!!!!I would never forgive you for killing Onii-sama!!!!"(Raven) As the birds said that a magic immediately begin to gather at her mouth......Shit there was nowhere to dodge... "Raven stop this at once..."(Bahamut) Bahamut summon himself in chibi form....This is the second time bahamut appeared...in front of me.. Chapter 84:Complex relationship 03. "Raven,Let me give you a warning if you touch this girl ..I would kill you.."(Bahamut) Bahamut killing intent was directed toward the crow over there..it wasn''t directed to me yet I could felt the chill.I never see bahamut this angry.. Yet the crow still the same and then said. "Bahamut...So ..So you care about michel more than me!!!!!!I am the one who you loved!!!"(Raven) "Raven."(Bahamut) "Bahamut!!!!Why !!!Why you care about her more than me!!!Why?"(Raven) "It was my master wish."(Bahamut) Hear that the crow immediately look at me full of hostility... "Raven ,I already told you...act as grudge was fine..but I won''t forgive you if you hurt him because of that."(Mysterious girl) The mysterious girl appeared beside crow,saw this I moved Seria to my back...Shit because Excal was still tired I left her at inn to rest. Spatial magic,Weapon call. As soon as I thought that A mithril sword and A mithril katana appeared...Thanks to her book..I able to use spatial magic...I am thanksful for this..but I just can''t let my guard down..After all she keep attacking me without me knowing why.. Saw this she only smiled and then said. "As expected of you....you able to learn it in a month ."(Mysterious girl) "...Well thank you...thought you know I am still no match for you.."(Ezax) "At least you were not an Idiot."(Mysterious girl) "Onii-sama.."(Seria)Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation. Seria realized the girl in front of us were really too strong. Thought what she did want?Why she go roundabout way just to kill me..just what she wanted?Did she want someone that can fight her equally? "I see,No connection had been made yet...Ezax...you still treat her as sister right?Even thought you know..you know that She loves you."(Mysterious girl) "What are you talking about?We are sibling!!"(Ezax) "Sibling?even thought you were not blood related at all?Or.....Seria didn''t tell you yet?How she felt about you?regardless of that..Once you know the truth...you relationship would change.."(Mysterious girl) "I didn''t know what were you scheming!!!Seria don''t listen to her!!!"(Ezax) "Ezax...Ezax...You averted your eyes from the truth didn''t you?Deep inside you realized that seria loved you.."(Mysterious girl) ...I glare at her ,saw this she said to me.. "3 Days from now...Outside of the city...Let us have a duel once again. I believe you won''t refuse right Ezax?"(Mysterious girl) "...."(Ezax) I will be forced either way..So I would just accept it..I nod my head... "Ezax ,let me tell you..if you lost...I would just kill Seria...After all she would become your weakness if this keep going..that''s why please made your mind in these 3 days okay?"(Mysterious girl) Kuh,We are being played around...but I could hold it ...There was nothing I could do in absolute power...Just how strong was she really? "Let me tell you this...defending was good..but if you can''t attack it was useless.."(Mysterious girl) Even thought she talk to me in roundabout way I know what she means...This girl....She even knows about dragon ascension!?Just who is she?I already put magic so no one can''t hear us..... "Let''s meet in 3 days Ezax.."(Mysterious girl) As she said that she vanished together with crow.. ".....Ezax. they didn''t vanished..they just hide themselves...Right now you won''t stand a chance if you can''t sense them..."(Bahamut) "I know...Bahamut can we master in 3 days?"(Ezax) "Both of you have a great talent..It just took 2 days...that''s why..you better 1 day to resolve between each other first..."(Bahamut) "Baha-"(Ezax) "....Onii-sama..What he said was right.."(Seria) "Seria,what are you saying?You-"(Ezax) "..Onii-sama!!!!STOP IT!!!"(Seria) Seria shout at me...she stare at me and then readied herself and said.. "...Onii-sama..It was as she said.."(Seria) "Seria.."(Ezax) "Onii-chan...I..I love you...."(Seria) Heard that I can only remain silent As I didn''t know how to answer her....then she said.. "It''s fine...I will wait..that''s why..can we go back..Onii-sama?"(Seria) Narrator POV. "Young miss why you stop me!!!"(Raven) "Raven,I know you are joking but your way was too slow..we need result immediately.."(Mysterious girl) "But young miss!!If this failed then he would hate you!!After all you planned to kill her if she didn''t fufill your expectaction right?!"(Raven) "That was fine....I devote my live to him alone..as long he could stay alive..I didn''t care whatever else.."(Mysterious girl) "Young miss..please..please stop hurting yourself like this.."(Raven) "..We didn''t have any choice...Time was short..."(Mysterious girl) "Miss.."(Raven) "This time..I won''t fail again.I won''t let him died!!"(Mysterious girl) Chapter 85:Complex relationship 04 "Damn it!!!"(Ezax) I said that as I hit the tree outside of the forest.I am so pissed at myself...rather everything was on my shoulder..but I keep delaying and delaying....I am so pathetic. As I thought someone covered my eye from behind... " "Guess who I am?"(HikarI) "...Hikari stop this,I didn''t have time to play with you."(Ezax) "I only try to lighten the mood,Geez.."(Hikari) Once she said she retract her arms and then I turned around.. she only shrugged her shoulder and say "can''t be helped" then she said. "I heard from your sister what happened.."(Hikari) "..."(Ezax) "Why you become quiet ?Relax bit more ,will you?"(Hikari) "There was no way I can relax,Our life was on line !!!"(Ezax) "Then calm down you dummy!!!"(Hikari) Her fist landed on my head. "Can you see you were in panic?"(Hikari) "..Sorry,I guess.."(Ezax) She was right..I was in panic. This wasn''t the first time this kind of danger befall me...and yet I was panicking..What''s wrong with me....As I tried to calm down Hikari then let out breath of relief and said..The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. "To be honest ,Ezax seeing you like this I was glad.."(Hikari) "Why you say that?"(Ezax) "You see you always calm no matter what happen...I was afraid...for you to become cold-blooded. But after see this..I realized that I am worried for nothing.."(Hikari) She didn''t lie,I can see that. Hikari was different from other human princess. The princess I know was arrogant...Sly and many thing...It was my personal experience..even thought they were beautiful outside they were rotten to their core..but hikari was completely different..still she was mistaken... "Hikari,You were wrong....I won''t bat an eye when I kill my enemy.If am not cold blooded then what am I?"(Ezax) "Heh..Someone who dotes on his little child and his pixie..someone that always protect us regardless himself...please ezax...Your joke wasn''t funny.."(Hikari) "I am not joking..."(Ezax) "Yes,yes I believed you.."(Hikari) Hikari onlyput mischievious smile and then said... "Anyway there was no need to worry about the answer..Just answer it like your usual attitude.."(Hikari) Answer as usual huh...Hikari then turn around and prepared to go...This girl...I found she wasn''t that unpleasant...well as repayment... "Well,about my previous preferance..it was a lie..oops..Sorry,just ignore my foolish rambling.."(Ezax) Hikari eyes widened and then she smile once more again and left me alone...I guess I will answer my little sister first... Narrator POV. 4 Hours later... "It was already 3 hours...just what were they doing in their room?"(Elina) "I don''t know ,but I didn''t have any bad feeling about it.."(Eliza) When Ezax return ,he immediately call seria to own her room..yet until now they didn''t exist the room once...they were worried but because the magic..they can''t hear anything..yet Hikari act indifferent and reading story as usual.... as soon as they thought that...The door opened... "STUPID BROTHER!!GO DIE!!GO DIE!!!!"(Seria) Seria then left the inn while pouting....Saw this scene both of them run out to Ezax room found him sitting withhis cheek swollen. "Ezax...what did you do?"(Hikari) Seeing this hikari was bit baffled..Just how he reject her own sister to get such a slap? "Oh this ,I just say to seria..that I will consider her if her way breast wasn''t flat...who knows that she would turn angry and slap me.."(Ezax) Even thought it was like that they were noticed...that Ezax tone was carried happy feeling....They didn''t know the exact truth but they felt happy because these stupid big brother and sister would return as usual tomorrow... 2 Days immediately went passed...and come to promised day... Chapter 86:Complex relationship 05. "Why you calls me in the middle of midnight...Nameless girl?"(Ezax) There was still 7 hours before the promised time. Yet she suddenly wake me up and need me to go alone outside city. without noticing she appears at my back with her sword on my neck. "What''s wrong Ezax?didn''t you trained for this kind of thing?didn''t bahamut taught you..the secret of Mind eye?."(Nameless girl) "I don''t neet to use it."(Ezax) "Hmm,Very Arrogant aren''t you?Ezax."(Nameless girl) "I already promised bahamut,promised bahamut not to use it to people who cares about me when I learn it...beside why I should use it to someone who obviously won''t kill me?"(Ezax) "I-I have seen a fool,but I never seen a fool like you!!!!"(Nameless girl) Just for a moment her voice wavered,As bahamut said This girl wasn''t an ''Enemy'' . Still I didn''t know why she was insist acting like this ..just what is her purpose? "That girl was not simple as you think Ezax. I believe she already known you for a long time."(Bahamut) "Bahamut,What do you think ?Shall I get more information from her?"(Ezax) "Never do that,Regardless of her purpose you mustn''t ask about it. If she was known that you approach her because of this you will be killed for sure."(Bahamut) "Speaking based on experience eh?Your life sure hard.."(Fafnir) "You shut up."(Bahamut) "Agreed,It was no time for joking Fafnir."(Brionac) "..Cih,you guys are no fun at all."(Fafnir) Once fafnir said that ,he immediately stopped saying anything.Then Brionac says. "Ezax,Be careful not to get hurt yourself okay if you made Eliza cry because of that I will kill you!.."(Brionac) What''s with this overdoting dragon,I am your host yet you care her more about than me..Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings. "...Be careful not made the same mistake as me ,I believe you will be able achieve what I can''t achieve. "(Bahamut) Once they said that they immediately gone..leaving us two alone....She already retract her weapon then she said. "...Forget about today ''s duel,I already knows outcome."(Nameless girl) "Wait..Before you go at least me tells your name.."( Ezax) I turn around and face her , when she heard this she only close her eyes.. then suddenly thousand of black knifes appeared.They were surruonding me and prepared to strike at anytime...Nameless girl then opened her eyes and then said. "If you able to withstand this thousand knifes..I will consider telling you my name.."(Nameless girl) This thousand knifes...There was around 4000-5000 knifes...and all of this were real weapon,it was sharp as mithril and hard as mithril and yet this knife was only made of iron..A top class weapon.Still what more made surprised is..all of the weapon have same inscription which means it was made by one blacksmith..For a blacksmith to able massproduce these kind of weapons...what a monster. Considering this ,I think I able to do it. I want to know more about myself also..to knows why she do all of this . Narrator POV. "I accept."(Ezax) "I see,then the first wave.."(Nameless girl) As the nameless girl test Ezax,she vividly remember ..remember about the past. At that time Ezax was still her enemy and they were still 15 years old.At that time Ezax said "I won''t fight...I won''t fight enemy that didn''t want to fight ..you are the same as me right?"(Ezax) As she thought that Ezax already repelled all of the knife of the first wave,even thought it was only hundred the way it moves was already very troublesome..Still it was still too early to tell how deep his mastery with mind eye..an eye of god.. "Second wave.."(Nameless girl) This time nameless girl used 500 hundred knifes..it will strike the blindspot of opponent,as long as Ezax didn''t reach knowledge level then he won''t get through this unschathed . But Ezax went beyond that and still easily repelled all of the knife that aimed at him...Saw this the nameless Girl still remembered how strong was him compared to her..She still remembered his wide back that protect him from execution .. "This girl would be at my protection. Anyone object?"(Ezax) As the wave finished ,Ezax only look at her and then said. "Next."(Ezax) Ezax mind eye was still at beginning level,The reason he was able do this easily was because he somehow understand how it moved.. "..I see,you are not bad at all,let''s start the third wave then."(Nameless girl) The third wave contained a knife that was hidden and the total knife that were fired toward Ezax was numbered over 2000. Deep inside nameless girl hope him pass the test . She wants him to know her name..she wants him to call her name again.... "Ezax.."(Nameless girl) She closed her eyes and she still remembered... "Why you go this far for me!!!To betray your ownAllies..what are you thinking?!!"(Nameless girl) "Allies?You are wrong they are not my allies. They are just greedy people.."(Ezax) "Still ..."(Nameless girl) "Also the reason you me to protect you wasn''t it obvious?"(Ezax) "Obvious?What are you implying!!"(Nameless girl) "Because I like you!To be honest it was a love at first sight!!"(Ezax) "!!STOP JOKING!!!I won''t talk with you anymore!!!"(Nameless girl) Remembering this somehow made her wants to cry .She was hardheaded at that time,still in the end she falls in love with him.At the same time Ezax already finished the third wave,there was a slight injury but nearly all of them were only a light graze . "Considering the number,the next one would be the last right?"(Ezax) "Yes you were right.."(Nameless girl) Their relationship was complex but at the same time a simple one . It was how they were relation described as ... "Final wave!!!"(Nameless girl) Chapter 87:Complex Relationship end 100... 200... 300.. ...............It was beyond count for how many knifes I already blocked or dodged. This was including hidden knifes or knifes that moves unlike others who fly in correspondingmoves.. To be honest at my mind eye''s level it wasn''t enough to detect hidden knifes or knifes that act independent,I just used magic to create a wind barrier even thought it was easily pierced I can detect the hidden knifes or knife that act independent...Also the barrage was never end... On appearance,yes the number of knife was decreasing...but I don''t know how many knifes was invisible......Right now the ratio was 5 :1 ,5 invincible and 1 visible...slowly it was decreasing..but I know I was just a matter of time before..All of the knifes become invisible.....Using magic and wield this katana already was already near my limit...but If I want to pass this final wave..I must breakthrought my limit... I immediately pull my sword and dual wielded it with my katana...I slash all of the invisible dagger that coming at me.... "Good,but you still haflway of this wave...Try your best Ezax.."(Nameless girl) ...Are you fucking kidding me?? Narrator POV. "...Ezax....You grow stronger didn''t you.."(Nameless girl) This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there. She said that as she put all of the knife back to her spatial ring, She then look at Ezax with smile...His body was full of wound but none of them was life threatening but she immediately heal him....She then left him a book ,All of the book that given by her were copy of his own book that used to teach him before...She also slipped note that contained her name ...as she was prepared to go...Ezax suddenly moved..and grab her hands.. "...Where were you going?"(Ezax) "You still Conscious?."(Nameless girl) "...I am just woke up thanks to certain Tsundere girl who heals me..."(Ezax) "..I see,looks like I am still soft. So what do you want?"(Nameless) "Tell me your name...I want to hear it by myself.."(Ezax) Ezax was already at its limit,even slight force will release his grab on her but she didn''t do it..in the end she said.. "Celes, Celes Celeria.."(Celes) Celeria was in fact Ezax last name,Ezax often grumble about it because it was sound girly . Remember this made her smile ,Ezax saw this and only smile back at her.. "It was good name.."(Ezax) Celes immediately turn around to hide her embarassment,She then said.. "...I don''t want to hear from you.."(Celes) "...Say,Celes..."(Ezax) "Don''t call me by that name. It made me want to puke..."(Celes) "IF I beat you ...will you marry me?"(Ezax) "....Don''t say anything..I am disgusted by you..."(Celes) "You right....but it can''t be helped...after all it was love at first si-.gh.t."(Ezax) Ezax then fall sleep again..Celes noticed these and immediately wipe her tears... "Ezax,you never changed didn''t you.."(Celes) It was the exact same reason why he falls in love with her...even the way he propose was the same.. "You dummy."(Celes) Once Celes said that she immediately go and went to inform others so they can pick him...without noticing someone approached him.. "He..So that was Ezax first wive...Master there was no need to worry...."(Hikari) It was Hikari,She already watched him since the beginning of wave... "I won''t lose the position as the main wife...That''s why master ..."(Hikari) Hikari immediately crouch as she look at Ezax who leans on tree sleeping.. "Can''t I call youmommy as the ezax did?"(Hikari) Hikari speak at her master..that reside in her soul...It was not known...that his relationship with his mom...was considered as an enemy....The one that lead him to these reborn....The one that made him wish...a power stronger than anyone else.. Chapter 88:Legendary spear(01) 1 weeks later. It took me 3 days to woke up and resume our journey. Everyone was worried but because I said there was no need to worry all of them immediately calm down..thought they want me to rest for another day just to be safe...only Hikari that wasn''t worried and started training harder...It made me wonder what motivated her..Right now we are in front of main capital...but when I saw this I become helpless...as we entered the city...I immediately said.. "I felt tired all of sudden.."(Takuya) "Me too ..:"(Elicia) Both of us sighed as the same person come to the mind...Then seria suddenly interrupted our thought and said.. "Oni-sama look that traitor was here..."(Seria) "Gale-san?"(Eliza) "Ah that useful informant."(Hikari) Ignoring Hikari for now as I didn''t know why she said it like that....Gale waving his hand while running toward us... "Master!!I have bee-."(Gale) Immediately I moved toward him and then binding him to the ground.... once I do that I take out some wooden stake from spatial ring and then tied him to the stake.... "Alicia,ask some soldier to send this person to the gay bar at once.."(Ezax) "MAster!!!Don''t sold me like this !!!It was a joke..A JOKE!!!!!"(Gale) "Shut up."(Ezax)You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version. I silenced him by putting some straw at his mouth... "Thanks gale,I will always remember your sacrifice."(Hikari and Elicia) Once they said that a bunch of soldier immediately come and drag the stake(gale ) away..Serve you right. Then another group of knight approach us..They immediately knell before us which draw everyone attention...

"Elicia come give papa big hug."(Beast king) Hear this both of eliza,hikari and Seria widened...It was a big change after all.. "Geez,father stop this!!!It was embarrasing.."(Elicia) Regardless of what Elicia said ,the king immediately hug her...Now..now..I wish he won''t forgot about us.. 3 hour later.. Everyone was waiting outside while I was explaining to the king... After explaining everything to the king.. "I see....war huh. With our strength alone indeed we would lose completely ...regardless of our corporation ...Ezax,do you think we can work together with human that enslaved us?"(Beast king) "I will made it happen ."(Ezax) "Oh?Why you were so confidence?"(Beast king) "Because It was me ,The hero who do it."(Ezax) "You changed a bit ..aren''t you."(Beast king) "Instead of changed,it was more likely growth,after all unlike before...I can''t afford to lose those girls.."(Ezax) If they win...then everyone would be dead...it was simple as that.It was a war we can''t afford to lose.. "Hahahaahaha!!!!I Like you more and more!!I will accept your alliance with one condition."(Beast king) "Tell me your condition.."(Ezax) "Go meet the White tiger alone and clear his trial together with Elicia."(Beast king) "Beast king you!!"(Ezax) "I already decided to do it..after all if it was you...I believe it you can use it more than us.."(Beast king) "I understand..I will do it.(Ezax) White tiger ritual...it was a ritual that held significant meaning to beastmen..a ritual for the legendary weapon...Gae bolg.

Once Ezax return to the girls side ,he immediately told them that he need to do the trials together with Elicia. Since it was trial exclusive to beastmen royalty ,Ezax can only told them to wait here at the castle..He also left fafnir and Brionac with them just to be safe..The reason he able to do this was because he already linked to them...So the dragon can exist using their magic...because of this Ezax can go without anything weighing on his mind...right now of Ezax and Elicia was on their way to the cave of trial and they were sleeping at tent.

I moved in circle and create an area of slashes....Normal people can easily sliced to dust..But I didn''t about these wolf in front of me...after all they were made with silver....yet they keep regenerating themselves....once I shredded them to tiny pieces ,I moved back and then Elicia cast High ranked magic. "Hell Fire!!!!"(Elicia) Immediately 4 flame pillar appeared from ground ..then spinning around the corpse and growing faster by each second...then it unified in center and Create massive pillar that burn every piece of silver wolf...all of this process happen in 5 second..Elicia for you to cast these kind of spell only need 15 second...you are really genius. But something impossible happening...slowly the wall Surrounding begin to moved and break one of its pieces and create another silver wolf... "Let''s run for now.."(Ezax) I grab Elicia hand and immediately run to the deeper inside of the cave...since the entrance was sealed. Our only choice was only to clear this trial...Still..even thought we still at entrance there was already troublesome monster like this....Thought it was good thing there was no time limit.... "What''s should we do Ezax?Even if we completely destroy their corpse the wall can just create a new one!."(Elicia) I running while turning my head toward her and said.. "We can only strive foward and hope there was a hint to deal with them. Right now Don''t waste magic on the wolf that chasing on us and keep the rest of your magic for later."(Ezax) "Ezax!!!In front of you!!!"(Elicia) There was a pack of wolves in front of us..but this time it had gold color....also the wall surrounding us already become gold color...It must be the hint to solve this trial...But first.. I must reserve my stamina... Using double battle arts to create a combined battle arts consume quite of stamina...At least6 times of Usual...As expected...Double battle arts sure was useful...but it still cost too much stamina for me right now..but it was at the earlies level,thebasic tier and was at mastery level..if I reach the intermediate tier...Then the stamina consumption will lessen. I hope when I used combined battle arts it will only cost 4 or 5 stamina from usual...right now if forced myself...I can use double battle arts 20 times..I must be careful and not overuse it...Thought it was still the first skill which Hikari''s teacher give me..yet it already this strong......Still to move them aside...I don''t need to use double battle arts... "Slow your pace for a bit ,until I give you sign ,you must speed up okay?"(Ezax) Stolen novel; please report. Once she nodded,I immediately changed my weapon to spear and then use battle arts.. "Rhino charge" Immediately pointed my spear at them and run with force ,Sensing something dangerous the wolf immediately move aside....Good. Once I the middle of them..I changed my weapon again..This time I changed my weapon to katana... Katana Battle arts ... Lunar Circle. I do a circle slash in flash and there was a circle traced surrounding me...It also split the nearby wolf into two... "Now!!RUN!!!"(Ezax) Immediately Elicia run at fullspeed and once she pass me..I also stared running..leave the wolf in dust.Still what should we do? "Destroy the right wall 5 meter from you!!Quick!!!!!!"(????) That Voice again?There was no time to ponder about about it!!!! I immediately do as it says and break the walls...and there was another tunnel appeared from it..... "Elicia can you block it?"(Ezax) "Yes!!"(Elicia) Once we entered tunnel..Immediately ELicia create a stone wall and immediately sealed the tunnel of...It also become quite dark..weird. ...Strange. Thought I shouldn''t waste my time to thinking about it for now...Why there was no light..I immediately bring out an oil lamp and then lit it..it only at this time I noticed Elicia was hugging me....and her eyes was teary... "Wue..."(Elicia) "...You are afraid of darkness?"(Ezax) Nod.nod...once Elicia I nod..I noticed her hand was shaking. Looks she was truly afraid...mades sense since she always put her tent near the bonfire..or always bring many oil lamps with her...... I immediately cast light magic,Firefly lamp.....soon 10 meter around us become visibile like outside....It was daily life magic thought...nearly cost me nothing... "Sorry...I.."(Elicia) Her leg still shaking..It was quite severe I guess..I shall somehow find a way to solve this later.. "...I see then let''s hold hand while we walking,it should calmed you down a bit.."(Ezax) "yes.."(Elicia) Once we hold each other hands..we immediately walk through the tunnel..still..it felt weird..it was like...how to describe it..it felt like we were floating......also..then tunnel didn''t change in slightest.....just how long we have been walking?...soon we arrived in a small forest with a small lake... "Welcome back master..."(??????) That voice..it was from my back......we Immediately turn around and there was a White Tiger with a full scar on its body... "Who..Who are you?"(Ezax) "Ezax...what are you talking about..There was no behind us.."(Eliza) "What? Can''t you see him Eliza?The white tiger in front of us.."(Ezax) "Ah,sorry I forgot to undo my magic. Normal people can''t see me with this magic..."(White tiger) As the white tiger said that...soon mist begin to envelop him and then... "How about it nya?Can you see me little girl nya?"(White tiger) It turned into a very small cat...>.< to think I am mistaken him as tiger..I am embarrased.. "BYAKO-SAMA !!Forgive me for my rudeness!!!"(Elicia) Elicia Immediately kow tow and then the cat said.. "Stand up,as master friend there was no need to respect me...to master I am just a your cute little cat.."(Little white cat) "What are you saying?Also why you keep calling me master!!!!Hey!!!"(Ezax) "Didn''t Celes-sama already explain it?"(Little white cat) "What do you mean?"(Ezax) "...If Celes-sama didn''t explain it yet..it means master still wasn''t ready for it. Maybe master should searching for the other 3 beside me ?Really master!!!You shoudln''t let your wife control you!!!!"(Little white cat) I didn''t understandwhat he is talking about...Ugh. "Celes...You mean that holy great maiden Celes!!!?"(Elicia) Wait...why you were the one who commented instead of me?also what does she mean by that. "????Maiden?Celes-sama was a maiden!!PFTT!!!!THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE!!!"(Litttle white cat) He immediately laughing and rolling on ground...this cat...he was sure carefree..... "Anyway master..since you are here !!Bring me outside!!!I am so bored you know for these 5000 years staying here!!!Except reading manga and novel there was nothing to do you know!!!"(Little white cat) "????manga?"(Ezax and Elicia) "Yep!!!A 100 years worth of data of manga and Novel from many country. Also master...why you wear that shirt from middle ages together with this wolf-girl?Are master cosplaying from Isekai-series?"(Little white cat) "????????????"(Ezax) Just what are this cat talking about?Isekai?Cosplay?Data??Manga????wtf word is that????Someone please explain it to me!!!! Chapter 91:Legendary spear (04) "Okay dokey!!!Let''s go!!!"(Ezax) Said the white tiger as he sit on top of my head. The white tiger''s named himself Byakko,one of the four sacred beast under me,he said he was very strong and wouldn''t fight if it was necessary(Thought I believe the real reason was because he was too lazy). Anyway,another one joined my party ...It become far from being quiet...sight..I miss the old days already. "What''s up master?Why are you sighing?"(Byakko) "Nothing,I just wondering what I had done in my past life to suffer like this.."(Ezax) OF course I didn''t say it...I then asked fat cat.Since he was so fat,let''s call him this way from now on... "Fat cat,since you were living here for a long time could you tell me how to retrieve the spear in the deepest part of the cafe?I believe it would be easy for you to do that."(Ezax) "If it was 3 days ago then it would be easy for you master ,since you were exception to the defense system...But I am afraid,Celes-sama change so you were not included to the exception,Including me too. Also she forbide from telling you anything that''s why I can''t tell you master. "(Byakko) "Celes?Who''s that?"(Elicia) Byakko who heard that look at Elicia then he asked me. "Master,who was this girl to you?Just to be safe ...She was just a friend right?"(Byakko) "No,I am ezax''s fiance."(Elicia) "....Master she was joking right?"(Byakko) "I wish she was joking,but because certain kind of accident it actually happened..."(Ezax) "Ho."(Byakko) Byakko put his paw together and praying toward Elicia. "I hope you survived the yandere outburst my friend..."(Byakko) "????"(Ezax) Just what was this fat cat talking about?Yandere?Celes wasn''t such a bad person...maybe... "Don''t worry Byakko-sama!!!I won''t die from this ordeal!!!I believe I will survive!!!"(Elicia) "Impossible,you underestimate the power of yandere!!!!Yandere could raise her power by 50% when she entered yandere state!!!"(Byakko) "Hmm!!!WIth my love toward Ezax,I could multiply my magic by 4 times!!!It was me clearly the winner!!!"(Elicia) "1 X 4 =4 ,while Celes-sama was 10 +5=15 !!It was still celes-sama who was higher."(Byakko) Somehow they getting mistracked as they argue with each other. Forget it,I will just walking around and Examine this room..maybe there was somehow hint about Celes. Based On byakko reaction,I know I was not human from this era. After all I know Celes already known about me for a longtime. Byakko also give me hint that technology that he had was beyond the present,For example the light box thing that could shown the place that out of reach here.....Let''s see..found it... I found the weird huge box in the center of the forest...It had door...It was unlocked.As I opened it ,I found some picture with book scattered on ground,when I pick it up and try to look at it. It used ancient language...that often found in ruin. Somehow I able to understand part of it..Thought it was odd after all I never study ancient language like this...I then throw it away...and Notice there was a small iron box that connected to each other......This must be like the huge box that byakko shown to me before......still how to activate this artifact...oh well for now let''s put it inside the storage ring first.Including the strange rope that connect the iron box....only once I put inside of storage ring,something fall between it...It was a book with strange cover....different from the book scattered on ground.Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original. I opened the book and found...something odd. Why I understand this?It was like I could understand this and read it just fine...It was a diary ,a normal diary...I only quickly read it and found it was written by A girl....from the way it look it was mother from a boy with the same name as me.... "Bahamut,fafnir what do you think?"(Ezax) But there was no response.....None of them responded...since I entered this cave they have been silence...Looks like I couldn''t communicate with them in here for whatever reason. Still there was one words bothering me...as it was underlined.. "Dimensional....war. What this mean?"(Ezax) I know what ''war '' means...but dimensional?What this means?...Thinking here won''t do anything...I guess I would ask Celes or byakko later. I put the ''Diary'' to my storage ring. after that I keep searching around..Until... *BOOM* An explosion!?Elicia!!Fat Cat!!!I immediately get out and look for them !!!Only too found....The fat cat bow to Celes,while Elicia was on guard and prepared to cast magic anytime...Celes on otherhand was leaning on tree while tapping her shoulder closing her eyes. "Celes?"(Ezax) "Have fun,researching your past Ezax?"(Celes) "So you knew..."(Ezax) "Well,it wasn''t important for now.....Ezax there was no need for you take the test to get the spear.After all I brought it with me....Here.."(Celes) Celes said that as she throw the spear like nothing toward me,it roll over and stop in front of my foot...It was a spear with emerald color....and there was wolf pattern on the handle.But there was no tip...instead of spear it was more like an Iron rod. "To be honest,my plan was to let you take it manually by doing the trial...But there was no time,That''s why I will test you by myself...."(Celes) She said that as she throw knife toward Elicia,the knife landed in front of Elicia...Then Celes said... "Elicia destroy your beautiful face of yours with that knife. If you couldn''t then I will kill your father."(Celes) "Celes!!St-!"(Ezax) "You Shut up!"(Celes) As soon as Celes said that she moved her hand and I couldn''t move my mouth at all!My body also freezed!Damn it!!CELES!!!!!Elicia who watch then lift the knife in front of her and then she smiled and said. "Oh ,It just that.Sure I will do it.."(Elicia) Elicia then moved the knife and begin to scratch her face with it. 5 minutes later...There was only blood at her face and there was many scar on her face. Finally Elicia drop the knife..at the same time Celes flick her finger and undo my spell..I immediately go toward Elicia and held her gently. "Sorry, I become so ugly....."(Elicia) "It''s fine..I won''t leave just because you were ugly.."(Ezax) It didn''t matter,what moved me the most that you didn''t hesitate at all when you destroy your face,compared to us man...your face was more important than your own life.It was the source of your beauty.....yet you destroy it without any hesitation..To me you really were beautiful..Someone that gladly sacrifice herself for her own family..It was the most beautiful thing you had.....Celes clapped both of her hand and then said.. "You pass,honestly Elicia you pass with flying color...compared to other two you was the hardest. After all your relationship with your father wasn''t that good compared to other two..and I still saw you hate your father for what she had done to your mother...For bastard like that you still sacrifice yourself for his live.."(Celes) Elicia then stand up on herself and said.. "I didn''t hate father..To me he was still my only father...father who dote on me very much. Thought he made mistake....but I could tell he was regret it very much.That''s why..Don''t call my father a bastard!!"(Elicia) "Sure you deserve at least that much,Here check yourself with mirror after you wipe the blood at your face.."(Celes) Celes toss a mirror toward Elicia ,Elicia catch it with both of her hand.Once she wipe the blood andsaw her face..she was shocked...as what she saw was very baffling.. She saw herself returned to normal...no...she become more beautiful than before....As Elicia was shocked. Even me was shocked..the knife wasn''t a normal knife..it must be a magic item..Celes pick up the knife...and said. "This knife cleanse any impurities that your face had,It was extremely brutal thought because it damage and immediately heal your face after your done it."(Celes) "Still Celes..It was too much...For you to ask girl to do this...Girl''s face was the same as her life you know.."(Ezax) "I never ask to disfigured her face like that,I only ask to destroy her beauty. 3 single scratch was already enough. She the one who do it on her own. It was normal for her to become more beautiful because of that..after all any impurities was cleansed from her face . It was also reward for her ,after all she wanted to ensure her father safety no matter what. Thought I believe the reason wasn''t just like that..Am I wrong?"(Celes) "Yes,I believe Ezax won''t leave me because of this. I believe in him."(Elicia) Heard Celes narrowed eyes and looked at me while her eyes tell me "You damn Living incubus" ,while Elicia smiled at me. I don''t know I should feel happy for Elicia feeling or feel sad because the way Celes Look at me.. "I would ask for your explanation later.Now it was your turn ....I will give you 3 hour......Learn how to activate that spear Alone and destroy the target I prepared for you."(Celes) As she said that she flicked her finger and byakko appeared while tied to wooden pole and was silenced as well.Then she put apple above his head.. "Destroy the apple,while it was under protection of this BASTARD!!!If you failed I would take back that spear!!"(Celes) Somehow from the tone...Celes was really angry...after all there was no need for her to tied him to a wooden pole...She must be pisssed because the fat cat call her yandere..I am sure of it. oh well it made no different ..He won''t die to begin with.Considering Celes,I know she did it because she know it was completely safe..Like Elicia case and Eliza case....Oh well,since there was a perfect scarecrow ,why I not use it?Even thought he was struggling like crazy trying to break free....I know it was very painful..but somehow I found him deserve it for whatever reason.....maybe because he didn''t help to stop Elicia... Well,Time to get serious...since Celes do this and hastened the test...It means there was no time towaste...There must be something happened outside.Something that mades her to hurry... Chapter 92:Legendary spear End This spear.I said that as I looked over the spear I held at my right hand,it had two head instead of one and its form and color was depending on how much magic you pour toward this Iron pole...also the sharpness...it only lose to excalibur slightly ..So this legendary spear Gae bolg? "As expected of you, able to realize it soon...now please pop the apple above this shitty cat head......"(Celes) "miaw!!!!!!"(Byakko) Heard that the cat struggled with all its power,a pity that he could not broke free. "....."(Ezax) Just what made him so afraid?I thought that as I throw my spear toward the apple on top of his head. It penetrates the apple but it didn''t stop and kept going until it destroy 10 tree behind him.........Looks like...I underestimate this spear too much... "Cih,Lucky for you fat cat..."(Celes) Celes said that as she look at the fat cat foaming on wooden pole unmoving.....looks like it was scared to death...but Celes didn''t care and kick the fat cat toward Elicia. "Byakko-sama...."(Elicia) Eliza said that as she looked pitifully at fat cat before her....Yep,someone lost in faith of their god,well it wasn''t my concern thought as I thought that Celes lifted the spear and return it back to me.but I know she was very refreshed ....then she said... "Let''s get to the main topic."(Celes) Her face immediately become serious... "Human ...They were preparing to wage war again beastmen."(Celes) "So soon?"(Ezax) "Wait,war?Whatboth of are you talking about?"(Elicia) "As She said,human were prepared to war againts beastmen,I already expect it but not this soon."(Ezax)If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. "Ezax,didn''t Father ,you and the chosen king of human arealdy sign peace treaty?Yet why ?"(Elicia) It was normal for her to be confused,after all she didn''t directly participate in war,So she would never know,but a word would made her understand. "Merchant."(Ezax) "..Merchant?So it was for profit?(Elicia) "Elicia,At war price was skyrocketing it could be double,trip;e or more.The profit you got if you success was ridiculous,beside you were mistaken if you think it was only human merchant that trigger this.Am I wrong Celes ?"(Ezax) "At least you brain still functioning Ezax,But as Ezax said.It wasn''t only human merchant,beastmen too."(Celes) I didn''t like how you indirectly said my brain wasn''t functioning....Still I will be ignored even if I said this aloud. I then Look at elicia ..only to found... "Fuh...I am glad.."(Elicia) "Glad?What were you being glad for?!"(Ezax) "But it happened because merchant right?It happened because those greedy people."(Elicia) "Obviously...."(Ezax) "Then it was not because human and beastmen can''t be together right?It wasn''t because the difference between beastmen and human right?"(Elicia) "That''s right..."(Ezax) "Then we could get married without any problem right?"(Elicia) "THat''s your problem!?C''mon take this more seriously!!This is war we were talking about!!"(Ezax) "It was because I take this seriously Ezax!!If I couldn''t meet you again because of the war was ended then there was no meaning!!!The war could go as long as it wish then!!!"(Elicia) "At least you got your priorities straight,it would be good if it could infected Ezax somehow."(Celes) "Celes-san so you know how much problem was Ezax attitude right?I guess you must had constant headache because of it."(Celes) "As expected of future politician,you guess everything right!!."(Elicia) "Don''t divert from the main topic!!!!!And sorry if my attitude was that bad!!!!"(Ezax) You think I am just going to shut my mouth while you saying all of this?But from their attitude I know they would just talk about it later,well at least they were not speaking in front of me. Back to main topic. "Celes I want to go back to human continent and talk to the king in person,so could protect her until she arrived at the kingdom at least."(Ezax) There was no time for internal conflict while we were being targeted by Dragoon race already. I want to avoid the war if possible,but just to be safe Elicia needed to be escorted back to the kingdom. It was just a precaution thought. "I can''t do that. I have something to do and didn''t had time for these."(Celes) "Can you give me a help for a bit Celes just this once."(Ezax) "As I said,it was impossible for me to bring her back home,as I didn''t had time to do that..beside Ezax you forgot this fat cat. Even thought he looks useless,he was stronger than you think.."(Celes) Celes said that as she pointed at fat cat that lying on ground lifelessly,then a wing begin to appear at her back and then said.. "Solve it on your own,it would be good for your growth Ezax."(Celes) As soon as she said that,she immediately fly away and leave us alone....Once the fat cat awake,we immediately exited the broken cave and then prepared to part from each other. THe fat cat already made himself big like before and let Elicia ride on him.A free mount indeed. "Elicia please inform others about this at the same time keep secret where the information come from. Keep it secret at least until this pointless war over."(Ezax) "I understand,I would inform father about this and took any necessary precaution."(Elicia) I nod then I look at fat cat. "Fat cat take care Elicia for me."(Ezax) "Leave it to me ,master."(Byakko) As soon as byakko replied he then run at fullspeed toward the castle.. TIme to head back to human continentand talk to the head king of the alliance. Chapter 93:Maturing(01) "What are you doing here?"(Ezax) I said that as I looked toward Hikari who was in front of me ,waiting inside of the ship that I got from the festival before. I didn''t know how she got here faster than me or how she know what I would do.... "Ezax,Please bring me with you!!"(Hikari) I would do as what she said for now....also I had long of thing to ask from her.. "Get in.."(Ezax) "Yes!!!"(Hikari) Before that I send fafnir along Excal to check the condition at the castle,I want to know it by myself...what beastmen movement when they know about this... Narrator POV Suddenly the ship stopped in the open sea,Hikari who noticed this and then turned around and prepared to ask to Ezax,after all why he stopped creating wind that supplied the fast movement of the ship?Only to be welcomed by sword that pointing on her neck.. "Hikari.....You know why I did this right?."(Ezax) "Ezax,but why?"(Hikari) "Isn''t that clear,Hikari I could not believe you any more......"(Ezax) Hikari immediately turned to silent,even thought on outside she wasn''t panicking,deep inside she was panicking...What she wanted..was something that very simple...She just didn''t want to treated differently..after all she was born different...Then suddenly big sis talk with her. "Told you,If you didn''t want to be treated differently then stop using oracle..."(Big sis) "Big sis..."(Hikari)... "Hikari,if you didn''t want treated different then stop using oracle!!!It was already bad enough for your own parents to treat you like you were sort of god or something right?Yet you use it because you worried..not to mention you keep insisting going because you were worried about him going alone.."(Big Sis) "But big sis...if the future what I saw was realized...then....then war..."(Hikari) "You could not sacrifice anything which was a very big flaw from you...but it was too late to choose...right now you could only told him the truth and given up on him.."(Big sis) "...Was there was really no other way..."(Hikari) As Hikari said in her own heart,something flew from his back.. "Don''t hurt her!!!!It was not her fault!!!!!!!It was mine!!!it was me who predict this"(Titania) it was her fairy,titania...yet Ezax eyes didn''t moved from hikari and still pointed her ,after all He instantly knows that Titania was lying.. "No one asked you,rather I didn''t care what you say....so shut the fu*k up!!!"(Ezax) "No!!!!!!"(Titania) Titania stopped just in front of his sword while opening her arms wide tried to protect Hikari....Suddenly Hikari said... "Oracle,it was oracle...I had ability as oracle and can see a bit time in the future......The reason I able to do-."(Hikari) "I already know that!"(Ezax) "What?"(Hikari) "...The reason I did this was different from what you think..Hikari think it carefully...based on what you said...I might kill you.."(Ezax) Hikari thought for a moment...but she still didn''t understood why Ezax did this....The big sister inside her body immediately take over her body and said... "It was because she never told her secret to you even thought you were teammate?"(BIg sister) Ezax who noticed someone already taken over her body,yet Ezax draw back his sword and then said.. "Fools,I would give you one last chance...Think it verY CAREFULLY!!!Why I was very angry at you!!!Hikari!!"(Ezax) Ezax then left hikari alone,She only realized that he was very angry as he stomped the wooden floor and broke it.....She never realized why he was this angry...Yet she thought very hard...she thought very hard and she didn''t realize it......She kept thinking why Ezax was so angry...only until they get out of human port finally hikari said.Did you know this story is from Royal Road?

"I don''t know..."(Hikari) "What?"(Ezax) "I don''t know ,I don''t know !!!!No matter how much I thought about it didn''t made sense to me!!!!I never understand!!!I never understand why you were so angry with me!!!"(Hikari) ".........Then I would told you!!!"(Ezax) Ezax suddenly throw his sword and land on the tree bark just beside her face and then he said...... while had his sword stopped in front of her neck. "You lied to everyone else...you lied to me!!!You lied to your own best friend!!!And it was very big lie!!!"(Ezax) "I didn''t lie!!!"(Hikari) "Then let me ask you,did you trust me?Did you trust Eliza?"(Ezax) "Yes!!!"(Hikari) "No,you didn''t!!!!You never trusted anyone!!!You only us see as your tool!!!!!Nothing more!!!"(Ezax) "I trust you !!!I trust Eliza!!!I trust everyone ELSE!!!!!!"(Hikari) "Then why you didn''t told anyone when you were going?"(Ezax) "Eh?"(Hikari) "You never know how much Eliza and Seria worried about you!!!!!!!!!"(Ezax) "Just because of that!!!?"(Hikari) Ezax Immediately slap her and then HE ROARED AT HER!!!! "THISWAS NOT YOUR FIRST MISTAKE!!! IT WAS YOUR SECOND MISTAKE!!!THIRD MISTAKE AND SO ON!!!!!!!!"(Ezax) "....."(Hikari) "Listen to me ,you said you trust Eliza...You said she was your best friend....then let me ask you!!!!!!!Why you didn''t tell her when you run away from castle?Didn''t you see how worried she were?when she come to me?Deep inside you didn''t trust her..wasn''t that right?"(Ezax) "No..."(Hikari) "And yet!!!You kept going in secret like this!!!!!DIDN''T YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED THEY WERE FOR JUSTVANISHING LIKE THAT!!?!!??What do you think of your best friend for!!!You just treated her like a tool!!"(Ezax) "I am greatly mistaken about you!!!!!"(Ezax) "I...."(Hikari) "What you felt you weren''t wrong!?LET ME TELL YOU THIS!!YOU WERE WRONG!!!!!!!!YOU WERE VERY SELFISH PEOPLE LIKE THOSE NOBLE !!!EVERY PRINCESS I HAD SEEN !!!!"(Ezax) "Tell me ?What''s the difference of you and THOSE SELFISH NOBLE!!?IT JUST YOU WHO ACT DIFFERENT!!DEEP INSIDE YOU THINK US NOTHING THAN TOOL!!!"(Ezax) Ezax were so angry at her,Why she was this selfish?Didn''t know she made great trouble for so many people?Eliza kept searching 3 days without rest !!!Even Seria who wason bad term with her joined Eliza to search her..Elicia already prepared to made search party and was really furious!!!She even think that Hikari was kidnapped by those beastmen who hate humans.If not for me sending fafnir then it would be a very huge trouble,thanks god I send fafnir just to check their condition ,If only she leave a note then I would never be this angry, was what he thought. "Then what do you want me to do ?Didn''t you know special oracle treated was ?Didn''t you know how many people want to use me!!???EZAX YOU KNOW NOTHING!!!!"(Hikari) "I KNOW!!!I KNOW HOW SPECIAL YOU WERE!!!SINCE BEGINNING!!!SINCE THE FIRST TIME WE MET!!!!"(Ezax) "!?"(Hikari) "I know since beginning!!!I know you had oracle!!!!So what ?Did I treat you differently?Did I EVER USE YOU!?I ASK YOU!!!WHEN I TREAT YOU MORE SPECIAL THAN OTHERS!!!"(Ezax) "Never...you never even once..."(Hikari) "I,myself didn''t know how much pain you go throught...You were light priestess,you had oracle,you had great talent at magic and weapon...you even had another great master inside of your soul...And maybe there was more than that as I didn''t know how many secret you had ,but you think I would treat you differently because of it?Would Eliza treat you different because of it?You know the answer it yourself didn''t you?."(Ezax) "Yes.."(Hikari) "I know you were afraid of being stopped by Eliza,I know you didn''t want to lose your status as her friend..but how could you be her friend if you never believe in her?"(Ezax) "........."(Hikari) "The reason why I were so angry at you and want to kill you was because you stomp on it...you stomp on Eliza sincereness as your own friend. what the difference of you with those nobles then?"(Ezax) "........."(Hikari) "I didn''t care how many secret you had nor I care about it,but please don''t be this selfish!!!!!Didn''t you know how much pain Eliza go throught for you!!?You didn''t know right?"(Ezax) "............"(Hikari) "It was fine if you think you were hurt the most...it was fine for you to be selfish...It was fine if you didn''t trust me,but at least could you trust Eliza ?"(Ezax) Once Ezax said that...Hikari immediately burst into tear..... "....Sorry..I am sorrry!!Everyone....I am so sorry..I never know....I only think...I was the only one that suffer.."(Hikari) She then started to cry...ezax only draw back his sword and then look at the sky.. "it would be night soon.....I guess this is it for today.."(Ezax) 4 hours later... "Hikari,she fall asleep..."(Titania) "Let her sleep,she must be very tired because she was crying for a long time you know."(Ezax) "Un."(Titania) Titania then nod and sit in front of the campfire...then suddenly Hikari woke up ...No..it wasn''t her ..it was the soul inside her body...The one that I called big sis... "Thanks.."(Big sis) "What were you thanking me for?"(Ezax) "Thanks for getting angry at hikari,You know this girl....as you said...she was very hard to trust others since she was raised like this......"(Big sis) "I also let emotion get better me...To be honest when I know hikari leave without telling anyone I nearly kill her..Seeing her stomped at their friendship...it made me so angry..if not for titania defending hikari..maybe I already killed her. To be honest we were similar..it just I already know it sooner by myself and change it....That''s why ...it was like I see my past self ....."(Ezax) Hear this titania trembled for a moment but then she regain her calmness and put a smug smile as she felt she was the MVP of this problem...let her just be both of them thought.. "Was that the only reason?I believe it was more than that..after all compared to others you had great control of your own emotion...it was more than that right?Ezax.."(Big sis) "That''s right..even thought I kept mentioning Eliza...I also suffered...."(Ezax) "Why?"(Big sis) "Because I thought....everything was lie...the memories we made together....maybe compared to other reason this was the 70% of the reason I lost myself,It pained me so much when I thought she just play around with us...I think she was heartless person when she did this....thought I didn''t know she was feeling that way before we talked for the second thought.."(Ezax) "it''s fine,to begin with was normal for you to not trust her after all what shehad done ,to go alonewithout telling anyone and still act like there was no problem at her action, to others no.. maybe to you,It felt like she stomped over the feeling of her best friend Eliza..Still please forgive her..."(Big sister) Big sis then continued.. "She just didn''t know it was wrong......not because she was intended it. "(Big sis) "Don''t worry,it was the same as I was wrong myself..I let my emotion get better over me without listen to her explanation.."(Ezax) "Stop blaming yourself,it wasn''t like you to belike this...."(Big sis) "I didn''t know it myself...I felt I was really bad ,after I get angry at her...it was like I lost part myself when I did that...something gnaw me deep inside my heart......"(Ezax) "Don''t tell me~~~~~~~~You already fall in love with her.."(Big sis) She put smug smile,but Ezax also replied with smile.. "Maybe,after all if she was just a friend then I wouldn''t give her a second chance and leave just like that...I guess you could said...maybe I indeed like her and didn''t realized it by myself..."(Ezax) He wasn''t an Idiot for him to felt pain when he thought he was losing her....it was already enough of her that she held important position in his heart...well let it be...if Hikari didn''t hate for threatening her and still love her,maybe he would think accepting her feeling..as he thought thatEzax stand up and entering his tent and immediately fall asleep...not realizing.....the last question was asked by Hikari... Chapter 94:Maturing (02) "SMACK!!!" "AUW!!!"(Hikari) "Tell me what were you planning to do you pervert!!!"(Ezax) "It was just a good morning kiss!!!"(Hikari) "Who the held need that !!!!"(Ezax) I become awoke because I felt something,thanks god I opened my eyes in time..This girl..giving her an inch and she took a mile..I want to punish her ,yet I didn''t had time... "This Tsundere!!Even thought you loved me you still act tsun tsun!!didn''t you ashamed of yourself?"(HikarI) "....."(Ezax) I give up ,I then take some wooden table and then opened map on top of it.....It was the map of this continent complete with the kingdom''s territory,But I was lacking in information as I still didn''t understand why the king suddenly united and plan to war all of sudden...It was like they were in hurry ..It was weird for them to be like this..what was the reason thought? "So where should we go now Hikari?You had the ideas right?After all you keeping going out in the middle of night.."(Ezax) "You found out?"(Hikari) "...What do you think?To be sneaking out to the city last night...you had good better information network better than mine right?"(Ezax) "Eugh,But I won''t speak it was already for your wife to ask about it and pay a lot for this information,you must compensate me."(Hikari) ".....Fine,how mu-."(Ezax) "I didn''t need money...what I want something else.."(Hikari) "What?"(Ezax) "Don''t worry,it won''t be anything weird..you just need to stay still for a minute.."(Hikari) "...Fine...."(Ezax) As long it was reasonable ,I won''t budge,hikari then walk slowly toward me and then suddenly...she hug me...Ah....It was rare for her to be normal for once.Dispelling my thought...she said.. If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it."Thank you.."(Hikari) "What were you thanking me for.."(Ezax) "You were angry at because you care about me right,I know everything from big sis."(Hikari) "...I see.."(Ezax) "Only you who treat me as hikari...not as princess or anyone else.....That''s why it was the first for someone torepreminandme,I never know I made a big mistake.that''s why I was really thanksful for you lecturing me.."(Hikari) "Who said there was only one mistake...."(Ezax) "Hueh?"(Hikari) "Going out alone at middle of night..pranking seria,act usual,stealing food,attracting troubles and many other things...There was many things to fix,don''t worry I would start helping you fix from now on.."(Ezax) When I said that ,hikari eyes immediately become dot.... "Aya,read how read the mood will you?"(Fafnir) ".I shall teach him how to read the mood .This guy was too much after all."(Typhoon) "Pleasetyphoon...I can''t stand seeing this any further.."(Brionac) "*LAUGHING LIKE CRAZY*"(Tiamat) "Master...you dissapointed me..."(Leviathan) "Stupid stupid!!Stupid master!!!!"(Kulshedra) "Genius ..but an Idiot..nothing fit him so well."(Bahamut) .....what?What were you guys reprimanding me for?What I said was the truth..yet they didn''t replied and I only felt they couldn''t see me any more and they go back to their own area... "Ezax...can you read the mood?"(Hikari) "What I said the was truth..."(Ezax) "Forget it,we could only deepened our feeling step by step..."(Hikari) Hikari then back to her usual position and then her face become serious.. "Back to the main topic..There was reason why all of the king of humanity suddenly uniting.."(Hikari) "As expected...after all not all of the king were greedy creature...there was some wise king or pacifist among them. yet all of them suddenly united in a mere 2 month,someone must pulled the string right?"(Ezax) "Yes,it was a shame I didn''t know the mastermind who did this but the reason they suddenly united was because one thing...all of their children were poisoned."(Hikari) "I see ,no wonder the king were so desperate.I believe they could only got their antidote from beastmen...It was set up like that right?."(Ezax) "Yes,there was a group of people that told the king that it was the beastmen that poisoned their children,they also spread the rumour there was a poison master at beastmen kingdom...not to mention there was constant harrasing of civillian and all of them tell the king it was beastmen fault,there was many other reason...but without knowing mastermind we could do nothing..."(Hikari) "Right,without antidote...it was impossible to persuade the king...without persuading the king we couldn''t help the civilian...after all the king obviously used all of they had to hunt for the one who poisoned their own children.."(Ezax) Maybe some of them do it for their own safety,their own pride or even pure kindness for their own children...regardless of that I must save the prince and princess first...even thought knowing it was the merchan union doing...but without proof it was useless...what I should do.. "Oh,Finally it was my turn.."(Leviathan) "?"(Ezax) "Now it was time for private lesson with onee-chan~~~"(Leviathan) What she was talking about ? "This sister would taught you about poison and its medicine~~~Time to study Ezax.."(Leviathan) I immediately stiffened...This big sister ...she was a poison master? "A former okay~~don''t worry it won''t kill you learning one or two thing about poison ."(Leviathan) At this time I didn''t know...It was my first step to being the best doctor in the world. Chapter 95:Maturing(03) Narrator POV Central kingdom At the plaza located at the biggest kingdom,a carriage stopped in front of it,then a beautiful princess come from inside of it,everyone eyes immediately fall on her,but the princess kept moving ignoring her citizen gaze and then she kneel in front of a guy that had not reach 20 yet..But he remain indifferent,including the beautiful girl beside her.If anyone observed carefully they would know who was this person,It was Ezax and Hikari,except Hikari cover her face with strange looking mask..

Since you wasted the chance I give you,the only you thing you can do was line up and wait for your turn,Next."(Ezax) "You commoner!!!Don''t you realize it was your responsibility to help the princess?You should be grateful to be useful to princess!!"(Head knight) "May I know who you are?"(Ezax) Ezax said that as he looked over a knight that wear armor better than the rest,To be honest he hate this kind of person the most. "There was no need for you lowly commoner to ask to know my name,now you shall be good boy and follo-"(Head knight) Ezax immediately moved in front of him and then punch him in his stomach and send him flying and crashes at nearby fountain,The knight saw this immediately begin circled hikari and Ezax,but at the same time...all of their sword was broke...It was hikari who broke them. They were just knight at most they were only had C rank..compared to Ezax who was S rank or her,they just an ant who didn''t know their place..The princess was still in shock seeing this.but soon she wake up.. "I am sorry for my knight rudeness,they didn''t mean anything bad ..please forgive them.."(Princess) "You must be joking,they draw their sword and prepare to kill me at anytime ?What do you mean by this?"(Ezax) "This..."(Princess) It was her fault no matter what it was her to blame...Ezax then order hikari to start packing. Only then.. "Wait,Doctor could you please help them?"(Random people) "?"(Ezax) "Everyone who live in this kingdom know...Prince and the Princess always doing their best for us..That''s why ..could you help them?"(Random people)If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. "Doctor please forgive them!!They didn''t mean anything bad...it was just the knight who made mistake not the princess.."(Random people) Soon one and another begin to speak,Seeing this Ezax stopped...and then looked at hikari who gave peace sign...Ezax sighed..as he understand...her information network was too godly.As he said that he moved toward princess and said... "Since everyone insist,I could only go along.."(Ezax) "Doctor !!!Thank you!!Thank you very much.."(Princess) "Save your thanks for later..Thanks me once he was cured.."(Ezax) He later was escorted to the castle....while he was on his way,Hikari whisper him with magic.. "Psst,You must thank me later.."(Hikari) "I know ,I know because of you we got the best case scenario....I would reward you later."(Ezax) "~Yay~"(Hikari) "We arrived,Great doctor.."(Princess) As the princess cut their conversation she opened the door and inside there was 13 years old boy lying on breath and breath roughtly. Ezax then walk toward him and then begin examine him,on outside it was like this...but inside he received help from leviathan a lot..once it was over,Ezax take out some paper and then begin writing something....It was bunch of herb.None of them were rare and was very easy to get..Also it was already adjusted by leviathan so they didn''t made mistake in buying them. "Just D level poison and they made big fuss of it..big sis dissapointed with this kind of child play.."(Leviathan) "...."(The rest of dragon and Ezax) Only level D poison and already this bad?He was already at death door and you said it was D level poison?What made them afraid how she think it was mere child play. Really as expected the most feared job in the whole world.The princess read it for moment and then said... "This is?"(Princess) "A list of herb that was necessary to concoct the medicine ,Please don''t make mistake and buy one....."(Ezax) "I understand!Guard!!!"(Princess) Once the guard fetch all of the herb,Ezax immediately check it and nothing was wrong with it,He then ask for a room and begin to mixing the medicine thought it was handled by leviathan because D rank was still too much for him right now...once Ezax do that he immediately made the prince drink it...soon his pale face immediately become normal and soon they heard peaceful snoring..But before leaving Ezax cast barrier around him without anyone noticed..as soon as they exited the prince room ,Ezax noticed someone was running and then grab his shoulder and was in panic.. "How was my son?!How much time he had!?Can he be cured?"(King) "Father!!Calm down!!!"(Princess) "How can I calm down!!THis was regarding future of my son!!!Doctor I didn''t care how much I need to pay!!!But please save my son!!!"(King) Ezax want to open his mouth..but nothing can get out of his mouth as the king kept shaking him..Hikari of course just kept silent as she enjoy watching him like this... After explanation. "I see,thank you for saving my son,I as the king and father thanks for your help.."(King) "It''s fine..I am not doing it for free anyway...There was something I want to ask from you.."(Ezax) "Ask me anything...as long it within my power...I would grant it."(King) "I had 3 wishes to ask,the first one is please spread the rumor a great doctor appeared here and could cure the mysterious sickness that the prince and princess ,second grant me authority to ask princess regarding the sickness and where he got it,And third once everything over I want you host a meeting here..."(Ezax) "?The first one and Second one was fine...but what was the reason for third?"(King) "Regarding the third wishes,I don''t want to disclose it until the appointed date..please understand.."(Ezax) "I understand,But great doctor I had one question for you.."(King) "....."(Ezax) "Until now I never asked your name because I found it wasn''t needed but I want to ask you one thing..."(King) The king immediately glare athim... "Regarding Excalibur and the princess beside you...could you give us clear explanation!?"(King) Ezax immediately said with smile.. "Of course.."(Ezax) TIme to lying throught his teeth he guess..well it wasn''t all of them lie thought.. Chapter 96:Maturing (04) "I am dead tired.."(Hikari) "I see.."(Ezax) "That''s why I need to rest..."(Hikari) "I know..."(Ezax) "I am out of magic power just in case you didn''t know.."(Hikari) "I understand..."(Ezax) "Please?Just let me stay here for the night.."(Hikari) "No."(Ezax) "Instant shut down!!!?"(Hikari) At night hikari often come over and watch Ezax making medicine or reading books. The reason she come over was purely to made ezax relax more often and bring some food for him...even thought hikari was needed to imbue somehealing magic to herb but majority of work was done by Ezax alone....Thought hikari was learning together with Ezax..she was not that passionate....... "Hey ezax?-.."(Hikari) "....Zzzz."(Ezax) "He forced himself too much."(Leviathan) "No wonder...eh..what''s with this little snake?"(Hikari) Hikari said that as she looked over a little snake on top of Ezax''s head.. "That''s rude!!!!I am dragon!!!A PURE DRAGON!!!"(Leviathan) "...But,you had snake scale,you didn''t had leg or wing either......if you were not a snake then what ?"(HIkari) "...T-T."(Leviathan) Why she become like this...she thought...but she immediately shake her head and then wipe her tear with her tails and seriously saying toward hikari..The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. "For what reason you holding yourself back..Hikari -chan?"(Leviathan) "Hmm?"(Hikari) "You were talented as well...in term of medicine you maybe you could surpass him..but for what reason you hold yourself back and let Ezax bask in spotlight..just what were you planning..."(Leviathan) "What do you think?Isn''t it my role to support him from shadow?"(Hikari) "...Little girl listen....If you think ezax just had talent....then by time you realize this...you would cry you know?"(Leviathan) "?"(Hikari) As hikari was wondering,Leviathan begin to sneak inside Ezax Clothes...and then take out something ...It was a small note... "Read it.."(Leviathan) "There was no need for me to read,after I already know what was written..beside..you little snake...you are mistaken one thing.."(Hikari) Hikari then said with a smug smile... "After all I already learned it..to me it just the same as reviewing..that''s why..it would be burdensome for him if I continued kept pretending beside that little snake...the note was made by me you know.."(Hikari) "Nee-chan missunderstood then,but could you stop the smug smile of yours..somehow it pissed me off.."(Leviathan) "Oh sorry,it just fun to make fun other people.."(Hikari) Hikari then move her face closer and prepared to kiss Ezax...but...a tail slap her face.. "What the hell were you doing?"(Hikari) "Oh sorry...I just found it fun...to make fun of you.."(Leviathan) "I couldn''t sleep without doing this..that''s why move..you old snake.."(Hikari) "Nope.."(Leviathan) A sound of fight was heard from ezax rooms that day...by the time ezax woke up ,he found leviathan and hikari lying on floor unconsciously,ezax only put them in his bed and then go on top on castle wall and then do some warm up...he then begin his training....soon a little white dragon come flying over and landed in front of him..then It pass him some kind of letter. "Looks like everyone was fine...thought I could imagineEliza hardship taking care of those fools..I would compensateher."(Ezax) Ezax then take out some paper and then write something ,once he finished he then pass it toward the white dragon..the white dragon saw this had his facetwitched. Obviously this dragon was fafnir... "Ezax,I am not a pigeon carrier.."(Fafnir) "Just do it..."(Ezax) "uh!!!!Forgive me please!!!!I won''t tease you anymore that''s why stop it please!!!"(Fafnir) Ezax grab fafnir and then kick him away..fafnir then fly while crying....these weeks Ezax kept using fafnir as letter carrier..the reason he ordered him to do so..was because not he was teasing him or not..it was because only fafnir that able carry the letter with him...beside fafnir knows which route to take so no one could see him. beside he could turn invisible at the worst case... "Now the other side was fine,time to resume my training I guess."(Ezax) Ezax continued training,once he finished ,he then sit on the edge of castle and reading the medicinal book that leviathan write for him...after 2 hours he close his book and then looked over at the city.... "It was quite fast...time to work then.."(Ezax) The patient was coming after all,Ezax thought that as he returned to his own room and prepare himself.. Chapter 97:Maturing (05) The first batch of treatment was finished,by the sun set. Right now Ezax was in his room,Drinking cold juice while reading some paper,the paper contains all of the information of the patient that ezax treated. He then put it aside..and then asked hikari.. "How about your side?Did you get anything?"(Ezax) "The same as you..there was nothing...."(Hikari) "I see,for now let''s save our energy for tomorrow,I believe by tomorrow more and more people would come and asked for our help."(Ezax) "Yes."(Hikari) Hikari immediately go back to her room,once hikari go back,Ezax immediately go to sleep,but suddenly he opened his eyes,he felt killing intent. "Hikari!?"(Ezax) Ezax immediately dashed toward hikari room''s by time he opened his door ,he found...5 corpse with a hole in their forehead...all of them was instantly killed. what happened? "You were too late Ezax."(Big sis) "This tone,Big sis?"(Ezax) "If I wasn''t here then hikari would at least be wounded..Lucky you I was in hikari''s body.."(Big sis)The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. "Sorry,I was careless."(Ezax) "If you know your mistake then fix it,you know what you should do right?"(Big sis) Ezax nodded then big sis smiled and said.. "Good,I would leave the rest to you then."(Big sis) As she said hikari body then begin to fall and then caught by Ezax...From now on..it would be dangerous...if he want to protect them then he must kept them by their side .Ezax then carry hikari toward his room and let her sleep there...of course ezax sleep on floor...by the morning comes hikari and ezax was discussing about the assasin last night. "I see,assasin huh,still there was no need for you to sleep on the floor while I was sleeping on bed.."(Hikari) "Still ,you were girl and we weren''t married or anything. It would be bad for your reputation.."(Ezax) "Ezax,I would get angry you know?If you still hard headed then I would slept on floor instead.."(Hikari) "Fine.."(Ezax) To be honest ,he was more worried to share bed with her,let''s hope she wouldn''t do anything he prayed. Still assassin?Looks like he must pay visit to those merchant union soon.For now he must resume his work and hope there was a hint...still why they were aiming at hikari?as Ezax thought all of this he kept walking and then doing what he could do for now..then on second day passed like nothing...at night time assasin also coming but this time..there were 10... Ezax want to kept them alive..but they already commit suicide before he could ask them.. "So troublesome.."(Ezax) The next day,the assasin didn''t come because there was one reason,they were killed before they could....he then took his clothes and return to their headquarter and then look at their belongings. "Merchant union leader huh...."(Ezax) Once Ezax read this,his eyes become cold..The dragon inside Ezax at that time all of them shiver for a moment as they felt Ezax killing intent..their dragon realized....by tomorrow...the merchant union would vanish from this world.. Chapter 98:Maturing(06) That night the head of merchant union was sleeping soundly with 4 naked woman on his bed suddenly he felt cold at his neck by time he open his eyes ,his body already thrown outside of window,soon he met his end...not just that..all of his asset was destroyed. By the time the searching warrant was started Ezax already returned to the castle with some letter contained,even though it was a code it was easy for him to decode it . Even though this a small proof but it was enough to make the king investigate the merchan union. Ezax also destroyed many of the merchant asset union asset. Tomorrow he would come again... By time he returned to his own room he noticed that there was someone in his room,then someone turn on the light and then said with concerned voice. "What were you doing this late, Ezax?"(Hikari) "Just cleaning some trash.."(Ezax) "Cleaning trash?I know you were strong but still you were too rash.Next time at least told me so I could go with you ..."(Hikari)The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. There was a hint of anger and worry from her tone,saw this Ezax only look away as he felt rather bad..but then Hikari sighed and then said... "Exaz,Thanks for protecting me.."(Hikari) "...Ah,yes.."(Ezax) Thanks?Heard that somehow Ezax was really glad he doing this,he felt overwhelming happiness to hear her gratitude,It wasn''t like this was the first time he receivedthanks from her....Ezax didn''t understand it..He must think he felt very tired and immediately fall asleep. By the he woke up,it was already morning and he resumed his work as doctor.He then kept going doing his work for a whole week,by the time he finished the whole week pass by,.. "Fafnir ,send everyone message that the job was already over.."(Ezax) "I am not a pigeon goddamit!!!"(Fafnir) "Just do it,you damn lizard."(Ezax) Ezax then kick him and fafnir flying while grumbling...Now he need to prepare himself..today there was a party for celebrating prince and princess being cured. Usually he didn''t participate but today was exception,For some reason he had bad feeling about today... "As you thought Ezax,your bad feeling would realized today...."(Celes) "Celes?"(Ezax) Ezax immediately turn around and found Celes was sitting on his chair and was eating an apple..She then said... "If you weren''t careful today..then hikari would die.."(Celes) "!!!!"(Ezax) Chapter 99:Maturing(07) "I didn''t understand,why Celes told me all of these things..to begin with why she helped me so much.."(Ezax) Ezax said that as he staring on the direction where Celes fly too,he then thinking..... "Regardless of that I would thank her later,Right now I should think a way to ensure Hikari safety.."(Ezax) He then leave this place and went back to his own room,While lying on his bed,Ezaxthinking about tonight...tonight there was a party for princess and princess treatment. He must participate in this party and it was absoluteIt was cut some rotten animal and approach agreeable king.But it must be After all there human must be united...as long they could stay united for a whole year it was enough. As he though this hikari entered his room,Ezax already get used about this as it was useless lock the door from her,he then rise his head and then look toward at hikari..Hikari furrowed her eyebrows for a moment and asked.. "Ah,did I wake you up?"(Hikari) "No,Iwas awake ,I just thinking about tonight."(Ezax) "Tonight?Were you nervous?"(Hikari) "Of course not,I just got information that there was something happened tonight..and It would threatened your life.."(Ezax) "o_o ,Celes information was fast...never expect for you to get it earlier than me."(Hikari) "Sight,then I believe you come here for this reason?(Ezax) "Of course not,I just worried if you were injured by her or something.Still,May I sit beside you?"(Hikari) "Feel free."(Ezax) Hikari then sit beside him and hold Ezax hands.She then said.. "Ezax,What were you worried about ,Could you tell me?"(Hikari) "I just didn''t know what I should do?If Celes come to meet me to tell me this ,then it means the one that aiming at your life was extremely dangerous..to be honest if possible I wouldn''t participate in the party and-"(Ezax) "That won''t do!!!I already said I hate being protected as princess!!!"(Hikari)If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. "But hikari-"(Ezax) "Ezax,that was enough treat me as princess!!!I am your future wife!!Your lover!!!I would never let you stand alone!!!!!"(Hikari) "HIKARI!!!!QUIT PLAYING AROUND!!!"(Ezax) Smack!!!Ezax was punched by hikari,it took by him by surprise but then he pushed to the bed with Hikari on top of him.. "Ezax....do I really look that ugly to you?"(Hikari) Seeing Hikari serious look,Ezax stop from getting angry with her.Depending on his choice it could be fatal to their relationship...and It wasn''t something Ezax wish to do.After all his heart wasn''t made by stone and he knows how much hikari cared for her,to be honest the reason why he falls in love with her because how how positive was her. SHe always stay positive and it helped many times for him to made decision..That''s why ezax said.. "No,you were beautiful."(Ezax) "I am very strong right?"(Hikari) Ezax also thought for a moment,regarding her power he knows it very well..that''s why he replied honestly.. "Yes,I know that.."(Ezax) Her eyes then become teary ,Ezax then tried to wipe her tear,but it was refused by Hikari..Seeing this Ezax was truly worried. "Then why you kept pushing me away?Why?"(Hikari) "..Hikari..I..."(Ezax) "I know you were afraid of me getting hurt !!!!But !!!But!!Did you know how much painful was it to see you everyday wounded?It was very painful !!!!Just how much suffer you must let me go throught Ezax?"(Hikari) Hearing that Ezax was silenced...to be honest he didn''t know how much pain that she felt.But he only hugged her tightly and then he said.. "Sorry ,I was wrong.."(Ezax) "..sob*sob.."(Hikari) Only now he realized,he was an Idiot.now that he thought about it..He realized he never counted dragon ascension ,to become dragoon ...his combat would be reached new height...yet he never try to use it unless it was forced. He knows himself he was a coward..a coward who always took the safest path even thought he knows it wasn''t the best path..Right now he made decision,A decision to change himself. Only now after a 10 years Ezax regains his long lost confidence and finally back to his ''real'' self. That''s right it was this girl who changed him..the one who undo the knot in his heart. "Hikari ,I love you."(Ezax) "Eh?"(Hikari) Hikari lips immediately sealed by him and then once their lips separated,Hikari face was really red. But his next action baffled her.. as he already stand up and prepared himself by making some potion.. "Ezax...can I ask you something?"(Hikari) "Sure?"(Ezax) "Isn''t it the step where enjoy each other eating forbidden fruit?"(Hikari) "Heh?Really?I was always ''dense'' right?beside it was not fun if I let you eat it just like that."(Ezax) Hear that hikari then begin throw pillow to Ezax..and kept screaming.. "STUPID!!!IDIOT!!!!PLAYBOY!!!"(HIkari) "Hm~~~I didn''t hear anything"(Ezax) To be honest Ezax want to do it with her as he was normal man..but he kept aside as he knows it wasn''t the timeRight now having child in middle of war was source of great trouble..It was better for him to kept being ''dense'' for sometime . Beside no one would realized anyway that he was kept pretending ''dense'' as usual. On other hand the dragon within his heart was laughing their ass off. And at the same time Celes who watch it from far away was secretly giving him thumbs up. "Serve her right!!!!!"(Celes) At this moment fafnir was on his way back to the castle and then noticed.. "Damn..THere was dragoon aiming at his life?Kukuku...COme then!!!This son would show him his power that he got from the greatest paladin in the world!!!"(Fafnir) Chapter 100:Maturing (08) "So tired."(Ezax) "It was just dancing for an hour,what makes you felt so tired?"(Hikari) "Couldn''t you see that I kept activating magic nonstop?That''s why please let me rest for a while.."(Ezax) Ezax right now were in castle balcony and kept searching for any potential threat. Only found nothing...rather it was too calm and made him really worried. But thanks to hikari he was sure there was a poison on the food,even though it was only an E level poisonit was still poison and made them sure someone aimed their life...After a 30 minute rest. Ezax back to the hall with Excal at his hand,while Hikari unsheathe her rapier. After all while they were resting everyone else already fall to the ground and was paralyzed..At the same time from main entrance to this hall shook for a moment..and then 1 shadow appeared with silver blade on his hand aiming at Ezax''s neck. Ezax barely raise his sword in time and block it.. "Heh,you were really strong as honey said..."(??????) It was a mature woman with black hair,with eastern outfit and long scarf covered her neck. But Ezax was sure she wasn''t human.After all he sense dragon within her. "You were a dragoon right?"(Ezax) "Heh..So you were not dumb as you look,no wonder you able to escape from my little gift."(??????) She gigled like a young girl,Ezax want to sa careful to Hikari,but on otherhand Hikari was.. "Irene nee-san?"(Hikari) "!Hikari?"(Ezax) Hear that name,the woman in front of stopped and then asked hikari. "You...were you that little girl always followed me whenever I go?I heard you eloped with your lover,I never expect to see you here.Since you were little girl you were always clever child,you made the right decision to leave the church and even eloped with your lover to escape from your parent grasp.Sometimes fate really made me wonders."(Irene) "I didn''t expect it either.Irene nee-chan..what happen to you?Why you had dragon in your body?"(Hikari)If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. "Heh,you have grown hikari.Or rather,you already have courage inside you..Unlike the timid little girl I know."(Irene) "Of course ,Irene nee-san love change people after all,but it didn''t matter..What I want to know is..why Irene nee-san do this?"(Hikari) "You wouldn''t believe if I told you,what I could say is..you made the best choice to elope with him."(Irene) She then looked with Ezax,but she never showed her killing intent even once which made Ezax wondered about her reason..no rather for her able to enter the castle without knowing already show that she was above S rank. After all his magic only allows people that the same or below his rank...So he felt she must be a lot of stronger than him. On other hand ,Irene saw this noticed Ezax was keeping guard around her and made her head hurts.After all her mission was only to kill those prince that belonged church and return dragoon continent.If possible invite or forced Ezax to join them.Irene then said while shrugged her shoulder. "Wait,wait could we talk for a moment?Indeed I am come here to kill some people..but I didn''t come here to kill you or Hikari.."(Irene) "You think I would let you just throught and kill these prince and princess?"(Ezax) "I only kill those scum that belong to the church,After all they were too dangerous not to deal with..Beside kid,you didn''t like the church either ,after all if you didn''t hate them then you would already join as hero .Am I wrong?"(Irene) "No ,you couldn''t be more right but regardless of that I couldn''t believe you..if just for killing the prince and princess...then it would be easier for you just to assasinate them separately after they went home right?"(Ezax) "Busted,thought..Ezax you still didn''t know what I am here for right?"(Irene) "...No,but I know you didn''t had any good intention about me or hikari,that knife on your body..I smelt a sleep herb on it.."(Ezax) "What a pity.."(Irene) Suddenly she moved and appear in front of Ezax and her knife aimed at forvish palm.. "Fast!"(Ezax) "If you just remain stupid,then it wouldn''t be hurt you know..."(Irene) As she said that a hidden knife appear from her shoes and Ezax right leg..Ezax immediately swing his sword to kept her away... "Heal..."(Hikari) "It''s was useless hikari,There was a paralyze poison on -..Impossible..Poison immunity?"(Irene) "Hikari cover me"(Ezax) As soon Ezax said that,he draw his katana and swing both of excal and katana toward her...but she effortlessly parry Ezax attack and then do a spin kick that send himaway toward the nearby table and flip over it.. "Not bad,But you were still far from honey.."(Irene) As soon as she replied that,10 arrows fly toward her ,she dodged it easily and then look toward Ezax who hold bow at his hand and rapidly fired arrow toward her... "3 weapon master?"(Irene) As irene thought that,hikari already dissapear from her original position and rapidly run toward her with her rapier...Irene prepared to intercept her,only to know Ezax run toward her at same time with a very long spear on his right hand. She immediately parry both of them at same time with knife and sword at both of her hand. "Looks like what honey said was right.I must stop playing around..If I want to defeat you Ezax. Mass...Teleportation.."(Irene) As she said that,All of them were teleported to the top of castle... "Now,Shall we fight seriously?Ezax and Hikari.."(Irene) Chapter 101:Maturing(09) In middle of night ,with moon as the only source of light. 2 people clashing together on top of castle. On other hand Hikari was watching it realized,it was beyond her understanding. But it was fight between 2 people of S ranker,no it was one sided. As blade wound kept appearing on his body...even her heal couldn''t keep it up. Then Ezax sword was knocked away from his hand and broke. Even with Dragon Ascension it wasn''t enough for him to fight her. There was no even trace of fatigue on her. But She stopped middleway as she "You were not bad ,if not because hostage behind you...then maybe the outcome would be different.."(Irene) "What did you mean?"(Hikari) "Her black blade send an invisible attack that go throught the sword. Most likely it used the darkness as it color so It couldn''t be seen with normal eyes."(Ezax) Hear Ezax Voice,Irene were surprised but she soon regained her calmness. Then look at the boy in front of him. To be able standing with this kind of wound on his whole body. His willpower was amazing.She thought that as she look the boy in front of her. On otherhand Hikari was shocked but then she stop her healing spell and begin to chant something else. "Let me tell you one thing,you should give up. It was useless to kept fighting."(Irene) "Give up wasn''t a word in my dictionary."(Ezax) Ezax said that as he took some potion and drink it. It was high class potion that he always saved for emergency,it would completely heal him in 10 second and kept heal him for 10 minutes.but After those 10 minutes then the medicine would rebound and made him unable to move for one day,the second potion increase Magic power or Mp regen for 5 minuteswith drawback to use magic for a whole day then the last potion increase his speed for 15% with the drawback unable to move for a whole hour. The reason he ordered Hikari to step back was because she was too weak and would be burden. That''s why he told her to stay at back and cast any buff for him.. "Sword of light,heed my call!!"(Ezax) The broken red sword that was called when he used dragon ascencion was recalled back to his hand and was restored to its initial condition. As she soon she said that Ezax already appeared in front of him ,even thought she managed to dodge,his left hand move toward her stomach and blasted her near the edge of castle. It was a light magic,the most basic magic Light blast. yet he able to cast it instantly made her amazed. But then she regain her balance and then resumed her attack. Right now her strength and his strength was equal if only Ezax didn''t bring the burden with him. After 3 whole minutes,Ezax then step back and try defeat her in one move,since it was move that destroy anything in front of him and need charged. Ezax was buying time for that move the move that he used to defeat the bone dragon...but.. "Sorry,but I didn''t want to lost either."(Irene) Irene throw her dagger which rush toward Hikari,Ezax saw this immediately moved between dagger and hikari . He try to repel it but it break throught his sword and go throught his right shoulder. But because of this the dagger missed by 3 cm from hikari. "You lost Ezax,You lost because you were protecting her."(Irene)This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there. "No..Dragon Ascencion...Off.."(Ezax) The sword dissapear,then Ezax said.. "Sword Appear."(Ezax) Ezax took out of katana from his dimensional ring. His technique that given by Celes to made the weapon appear at whenever he want was not completed. It wasn''t at level of celes that can change just based on thought. Even thought he had dimensional ring. "Fafnir."(Ezax) Ezax summon fafnir in his original form. Fafnir who said this know,Ezax couldn''t hold anymore. "Ezax..Let''s retreat. Your body couldn''t hold much longer."(Fafnir) "No,This kind of opponent wouldn''t let us retreat.Beside we only need to hold it until the morning. If the morning arrives..then It was our win."(Ezax) "What a scary boy to judge my weakness just with this little information. But it was a pity...your body coudn''t even hold another minute or another attack from me like this."(Irene) She threw one throwingknifetoward Irene. Seeing this Ezax order fafnir to guard hikari in his stead. Fafnir comply...but just after he repelled the dagger...2 knife flying faster than before hit 2 his knee and rob his movement. Ezax falls on the floor she then immediately moved before him. Ezax glare againts her but irene only giggled. "What a reselient boy.but this was the end. "(Irene) "Light geyser."(Hikari) Irene immediately step back an light pillar appear in her previous position. She then looked toward hikari who run toward his side and took some kind of small bottle with no label.She was shocked as it was Elixir. The legendary that could save people no matter what happen to him. As long his head wasn''t separated from the bodies then Elixir can cure anything. "Ezax,please drink this.."(Hikari) "Hikari,that is.."(Ezax) "Elixir,don''t worry about it. Just drink it.."(Hikari) "I wouldn''t let you!(Irene) Just as Irene move closer she was repelled by fafnir tail.Then fafnir created barrier around Ezax and Hikari. "Maybe I couldn''t beat you or hurt you. But blocking your attack for one minutes was easy matter for me ."(Fafnir) "Damn!!!!"(Irene) Even thought her mission was success but if her dear found out about this then he would be dissapointed . She didn''t want her dear to be dissapointed after all of those he done for her. On other hand..after a minutes takuya body was restored...even those side effect after drinking those potion was cured. But because of elixir the effect was gone too.. "Hikari,That elixir..was your heirloom right?Why?why you waste it on me?''(Ezax) "It''s wasn''t that important. Beside I didn''t want hide anything again from you anymore.I am sorry Ezax..it took me very long time to undo the seal ."(Hikari) As she said hikari hair turned into silver and then said... "Did you disgusted by me?After all I had this kind of hair color.."(Hikari) Silver was said the hair color of the devil that destroy half of human continent and nearly wiped 90% of humanities 50 years ago. Ezax understand why she hide it and rarely trust anyone. After all people had silver color would be executed ...even a baby couldn''t escape that fate. Not to mention the pigment that used to change the color itself was very expensive and there was no magic exist to change the hair color..but Ezax stand up and give her a chop in the middle of her head. "You are an Idiot. Why you asking something that you already know?"(Ezax) "Ezax."(Hikari) "I would never abandon you hikari,even iftheworlds againts you then I would go againt the world itself.I would be always at your side and that was my promise to you!!"(Ezax) "Ezax,thank you and I love you."(Hikari) Light begin to gather around hikari and then Fafnir said. "Second stage was reached,Ezax you could use second stage dragon ascension!You able to use for 10 second!!"(Fafnir) "No that wasn''t enough,take my blessing..Ezax."(Hikari) Suddenly a magic symbol appear below me and then it envelophis whole body.hefelt surge of power within my body. This magic?why he didn''t know about it. "Let''s fight together Ezax..This time I wouldn''t be a burden anymore!!(Hikari) Hikari draw her rapier and the another rapier appear at her otherhand. Dual Wield?Then asEzax thought that her body begin floating and wing were made of light appear at her back. "Now Irene nee-chan!!I will show you my resolve!!!My resolve to protect everything that important for me!!"(Hikari) "Fafnir let''s go!!We will go all out!!Dragon Ascencion"(Ezax) The sword once again appear at his hand,but this time a pair of dragon wing appear at his back. The real fight would just begin.
