Omega Summoner

Chapter 857 – Need Something In Return

The royal family assembled to the great hall where Adrian and his companions were guided. The royal family of the Kingdom of Suburiasi looked healthy but Adrian could see a deep looming grudge attached to them. The curse is definitely of divine nature which meant that even holy magic will not be able to purify it. .𝒎

The members of the royal family are currently the retired king, the current king and queen, the crown prince, the first and second prince, and the third prince that is currently in a mobile cradle. Adrian could not see any brother or sister of the king which meant two things.

The brothers or sisters of the king are either away or dead. If the other royal family members of other kingdoms know of the curse, then they will not accept marriage proposals from this family. Actually, Adrian is already impressed that the queen managed to give birth to three sons.

“Venerable one, I thank you for your visit to our home. We need your help! My son…my son is in great deal of pain.” The Queen stated as she grabbed Adrian’s hands as she begged him to save her son.

“My Queen, you must contain yourself. I know that our son is pitiful, but you must respect the Venerable One. It is not easy coming to our kingdom as it is.” The King stated with a voice filled with concern as if he is afraid that Adrian might get offended.

“It does not matter. It is only natural for a mother to worry about her child. I actually like that she forgot her title so that she can save her child. She is a queen that has a heart of gold indeed.” Adrian replied.

Actually, Adrian already knew that the queen of this kingdom is not actually born from royalty. She is actually a daughter of a farmer that tilled the soil with all his heart. In return, the Goddess of Life blessed her family with great harvest and an energetic body. The Blessing of the Goddess of Life clashed with the curse of the Nymph Queen which made her bore three sons which should be impossible for this royal family.

“Thank you, Venerable One. I have been informed that you know of the status of my child. You even told the guard captain that he will only live for three more days.” The king announced which shocked the other members of the royal family as they did not know of this detail.

“Looking at him now, he would actually not live for two days. I can see death looming before him.” Adrian stated as he looked directly at the grim reaper like entity waiting for the baby to die.

The grim reaper looking entity looked back at Adrian as if acknowledging his existence. The royal family then looked at Adrian who is looking at a wall faraway. They are still in disbelief of the current state of the third prince and cannot easily accept reality.

“Is that true!?” The queen reacted and looked like she is about to faint.

“Please. Save my grandson at all cost!” The former king stated as he bowed towards Adrian.

“Humble and definitely not like what the rumor says. Your soul is also clean as if you have been in atonement for numerous years. Then again, your ancestor that has sinned is already dead anyways. You lived because you lived as a good king. All good things are repaid.” Adrian stated as he can see that the soul of the former king is pure.

He looked at all of the royal family and their souls are also pure. They are not like the souls of the other nobles that he saw that visited Avalon to meet the elven elders. They are living a good life which is why they are still alive despite the great grudge attached to them. .𝒎

“Thank you for the praise.” The royal family simultaneously replied as they all knelt down to beg Adrian to save them.

“Your brother feels like a different person.” Lycan whispered.

“If he actually does the job, he becomes serious. Sometimes, he just becomes lazy which is why he gets scolded most of the time. He procrastinates more than actually doing the job. Thankfully, he becomes a bit formidable when he gets serious.” Solstice replied.

“It is not impossible for me to help the third prince but what will I get in exchange?” Adrian asked.

“Anything! I will give you the whole treasury of the kingdom if I have to.” The king replied with great honesty as he loves his son from the bottom of his heart.

Adrian smiled as they tick all the boxes which means he can help them. He can give the boy a blessing, but that blessing will also have restrictions. Adrian actually is hearing the voice of the Goddess of Life while he was saying those stuff. In other words, everything he said is scripted.

“In that case, in exchange for me saving the boy from the grasp of death due to the curse, I seek passage to the kingdom above.” Adrian stated which made the royal family hesitate a little.

“I would gladly give it to you Venerable One, but the giants are not very welcoming. You can ask another thing if you want.” The king stated as even he does not control the giants.

“That is all I ask. I can handle the giants. I just seek permission for passage.” Adrian replied to which the king agreed but it seems that the latter is thinking of another compensation if Adrian does enter the kingdom above.

“Since we have an agreement, this form will be unsuitable to help the young prince.” Adrian stated as he cancelled his polymorph skill and returned to his demon appearance.

The royal family became shocked, and some became even wary, but the king suddenly understood. The tree of life and death is said to have been planted on the floating island governed by demons.. It would not be stretch to say that the demons hold great influence in the Church of the Twin Gods.
