The Golden Throne

"We are here, master.", Arad said in a deep voice. He opened his eyes now. Looking around, he saw that they were still high up, with the city down there. The winds were gushing at them. He quickly held Amelia in fear that she would topple over because of imbalance. 

"Where was this chivalry when you were sleeping?", Amelia scoffed.

"I was mediatating. There is a big, big difference between sleeping and meditating. I was gathering mana from around me.", Liu Feng corrected her.

"Gathering mana my foot. All around us, there is an abundance of wind element mana. It takes more effort separating other mana out and absorbing it. So stop lying.", Amelia said.

Liu Feng shrugged as he patted on the back of Arad. 

He saw the city down there, which was lit up in all its glory.

"Looks like the demons are laying low and don't want the attack to be known to the general public. If this was a full blown attack, then I am sure that the whole city would be up in flames. Why would they want this attack to be discrete though? Doesn't make any sense. Anyways, Arad, let us down at the hotel. I need to make sure that the kings are safe. I went around my way to invite them to the city, can't afford to let them die.", Liu Feng laughed bitterly.

"Which one is the hotel?", Arad asked.

"The one with the most lights, and it's the second largest building. There, you can see it.", Liu Feng pointed towards the building. Even at this height, the building itself stood apart from its puny counterparts in sheer size and light emission.

Arad started descending downwards. Amelia instinctively clung on to Liu Feng's sleeve as she was afraid of falling down. Liu Feng smiled at this but did not say anything. The wind rushed towards them, attempting to knock them off, but the moment they neared Amelia, they gave way, as if they were listening to her.

"She's in her natural element, yet she is scared out of her wits. Oh the irony.", Liu Feng shook his head as he thought to himself.

Arad swooped downwards and got on top of the roof of the hotel. It was quite expansive and had many exits rather than just the one. Liu Feng and Amelia got off. Seeing Amelia getting off, he stopped her.

"Uhuh. You are not going anywhere."

He said, "Arad. Drop off Amelia in the mage tower and guard her as well as the boy who contracted Terran."

"Yes, cousin."

"But-", Amelia wanted to retort, but Arad did not even give her a chance to speak as he rose to the skies once more. 

Liu Feng looked at the roof, and down to the city. All was going normal, except for the fact that the mage tower had a cluster of people attracted towards it.

Liu Feng ran towards the stairs and got to the first class suite. The floor was very calm, and there were guards everywhere. He went forward to knock on the doors but the guards stopped him.

"The kings are resting. Who do you think you are to disturb them?"

Liu Feng snorted and he still knocked. 

"How dare you? You are going to get it boy. You cost me my job.", the guard was enraged. But, he still could not comprehend the fact that Liu Feng just disappeared and reappeared behind them all.

"Who the hell is knocking at this ungodly hour?", A loud voice came out. Damascus opened the door to see Liu Feng. "Liu Feng? Didn't you go to the academy? Wait till the morning."

"Your daughter was attacked by demons."

Immediately Damascus shook awake. "Where is she?"

"I had her taken to the mage tower. You should be there as well. It is no longer safe here. Demons have begun their attacks and they are targeting the contractors of King Spirits. If they know that there are kings here, who knows what they'll do."

Liu Feng knocked on Liu Man's and Balor's doors and briefed them. This time, the guards did not stop them at all after they heard that there was a chance for the kings to get attacked. However, Liu Feng caught a sight displeasure in his father's eyes even though he was informed about the threat. He disregarded this and went ahead to get all the kings to safety.

"Now, please come with me to the mage tower. Time is of the essence. Also, please make sure that you have your weapons ready. We could be attacked at any time."

They nodded, and Liu Man took out a sword from seemingly nowhere. This sword was truly magnificent. It was made entirely of magic crystal and was one of the national treasures of Aegon. Balor brought out a hammer and Damascus brought out a bow, confirming Liu Feng's stereotypical predictions. They went to the elevator and went to the lobby. 

They were about to leave when Liu Feng warned them, "Please maintain caution. Five demons are approaching us from the side. Please maintain caution."

The guards were also ready, but the demons who came rushed through them and went straight for the kings. They were laughing. "Hehe. King kill is demon stone. King kill is demon stone. I want demon stone."

Liu Feng quickly took out his greatsword and slammed the premier demon to the ground. It died in one strike.

"Please do not hesitate to kill them, as they will not show you mercy."

"We know, boy. We are not kids for you to tell us what to do every step of the way."

"My apologies then. Please leave the demon who stays back to me. That is not someone you can afford to fight with unless you are in the… twelfth circle."

"And you think that you can? Don't rush off to death yourself.", Balor said, as he swung his hammer against the demon that was trying to kill him.

Liu Feng smiled and he disappeared to appear next to the demon in the back.

"I don't understand why the leader always stays in the back, waiting to die."
