Chapter 1003
Solstice headed towards the last kingdom, but she did not expect that the current king of that kingdom would be a bastard son of the emperor of the fallen empire. The Shade that escorted her is currently trapped in the dungeon while she is restrained.
Even though she is restrained, she could still move her body because it only weakened the use of her powers. Unlike the fallen empire’s royal family, the bastard son actually had the blessing of a sun god. Although it was a god that is not recognize in the central continent because his mother was a maid that hailed from the western continent.
“To think that King Amon would be more powerful than I thought. Even you have played the angels, I am impressed.” Solstice stated as she is currently bound by rings made of solar light. She is not harmed by the rings, but it does restrain her abilities. She is also not feeling discomfort because of the armor that she wore.
“You are saying that the angels will just use me for the war. But you did not think that I was only acting weak for the sake of my people. Those pesky winged bastards are the reason why the empire could not move on. I am actually thankful that it got destroyed because living in a hidden room at that place sickens me.” King Amon stated.
“Since you have already said your piece, let me and the Shade go. We only came to warn you of the angels, but it seems that you no longer need to. You are actually powerful enough to defeat them.” Solstice stated.
“That is true, but I am still interested in the claim that you have said. My people are on the verge of starvation as our food supplies will only last us two more months. I need to invite this demon that you speak of. I want to meet the Lord of Avalon himself.” King Amon stated.
“You should have just said it instead of binding me like this.” Solstice stated but King Amon will not believe anyone. He already has deep trust issues and the only ones he could truly believe are his family and loyal retainers.
“Your majesty, we have captured some people that sneaked inside the castle.” A voice from outside the room stated.
“Who are they to actually dare come in my castle? Is my kingdom a weak one which is why some vagrants just waltz in?” King Amon stated.
“They confessed that they have come for the woman.” The voice outside stated.
“Bring them in.” King Amon commanded as four knights entered carrying Creepysoo, Awraka and Lycan.
“Looks like big sis is fine. You can stop worrying now.” Creepysoo stated as he teased Lycan. He has been enduring the countless raving of that lovestruck man.
“Can you read the room?” Lycan stated.
King Amon then recognized Lycan as he is the son of the duke of the empire back then. The duke would often visit him as he was his instructor back then. He knew that the duke had a son, but he was unable to meet him personally. He has seen him from afar during one of the balls when he snuck out.
“Welcome, Son of Duke Lycaon. It is a pleasant surprise to meet you here. I did not think that you were the sneaky type. Your father would often talk about your unnoble like behavior but to think that I will bear witness of it.” Kign Amon stated.
“Do I know you?” Lycan asked.
“I am one of your father’s students. My name is Amon. King Amon if you will since I have ascended this throne.” King Amon stated.
“Oh! My father often spoke about you. He said that you were a meek and shy brat but very talented. So, you did not die when the Imperial Capital got sacrificed to the dark god.” Lycan stated with surprise.
“You can say that it was a blessing as I am not eaten by an abomination unlike my family. Even the demigod old man was no match for such a dark god. They liked to tell people that they are descendants of gods but that is actually far from the truth. Anyways, you can loosen their bonds.” King Amon stated.
“Your majesty! It is not safe. They have a filthy undead with them.” One of the royal knights stated.
“Hey! Mind you! I am the Prince of the Undead.” Creepysoo rebuked as he did not like being called filthy.
“I know of him. We do have our intelligence about the undead.” King Amon stated as he knew that the undead kingdom that sprouted does not attack the living recklessly. In fact, some human merchants have already started trading with the undead. With the increasing influence of the Church of the Twin Gods, the undead led by King Arthur are not like other undead that hate the living.
In fact, some countries have even sent their delegations to the Undead Kingdom to ask for labor. They asked for skeleton miners since they do not tire. Some kingdoms that have great mines have contacted them because of this. Even King Amon wanted this labor force as his kingdom also have mines where humans are unable to breath but undead do not need to breathe. π³.πβ΄
“He is correct. You must give respect to a prince even if he did sneak inside my kingdom.” King Amon stated which made Creepysoo embarrassed as he is not supposed to do sneaky things.
“Let me introduce myself one more. I am King Amon Rah of the Kingdom of the Sun.” King Amon stated as he introduced himself to everyone present.
“Creepysoo, Prince of the Undead. It is a pleasure to meet the King of the Kingdom of the Sun.” Creepysoo stated as he did the vow of what a noble should do when another noble introduces themselves.
“Lycan, Son of Duke Lycaon. It is a pleasure to meet the King of the Kingdom of the Sun.” Lycan stated as he also bowed like a noble.
