âAre you ready, Geeta?â Asked Azaline.
âAnytime~â Geeta answered cheerfully.
Both of them had used their best gear and the necessary supplies they need for their journey. The journey towards the Eastaria continent wonât be easy since there is only a little information about the continent.
The âJack of All Tradesâ secret order hasnât finished making the layout map of the continent either. It is said that the eastaria continent is vicious while not as vicious as the magical forest of Everdeen back then.
As the elves got rewarded the bird king and the birds serving him as familiars they may make a contract of just like the goblins and the direwolves, as the queen of the elves, Azaliine make a contract with the sky king directly.
âWhere do you want to go, young Azaline?â Asked the bird king.
âI want to go to the eastaria continent, could you bring me there, Corvus?â Azaline asked the Sky King.
âThe eastaria continent, huh⦠Thatâs a rather dangerous place you want to go. What are going to do at the eastaria continent?â Asked the Sky King.
âIâm going to find my mother,â (Azaline)
âI see⦠Then it seems that I have no choice but to help you go there. Iâll make sure you could go there and go back here safely,â said Corvus the sky king.
Corvus is a name given by Azaline to the Sky King since he has no name. She was about to give him a cute name, but since it wouldnât be funny if a great and mighty Sky King like him got called âSunnyâ or âSallyâ, he gave him the name âCorvusâ instead.
âLetâs go, Geeta,â (Azaline)
âCorvus. Could my Altira ride on you too?â Asked Geeta as she points to her huge direwolf. Just like Aegirâs, Geetaâs direwolf, Altira is three meters tall and five meters long.
Even if the sky kingâs body is gigantic which is about 10 meters tall and 12 meters long, having Altira ride above him will make his stamina drop greatly as Altira is obviously very heavy.
âDonât tease me, young goblin. I know that he possesses the ability to transform into a smaller form. Most of the high-ranked magic beasts possess the ability to at least transform into a smaller form,â Said Corvus the sky king.
âHehe~ You got me there, come on, Altira,â (Geeta)
*Poof*
The direwolf transformed into a grey small puppy and jumped to Geetaâs head.
âas usual, Iâll be counting on you, Reindell,â (Azaline)
âYes, you can count on me. May you have a safe journey, your majesty. Remember to retreat in case if itâs too dangerous, and request help if youâre in a pinch. Iâll fly my way towards your direction if you gave the signal,â said Reindell.
The signal Reindell mean is elven alarm magic that had been used by noble elves since the old ages. Every royalty has a pendant that if they pour their mana into the pendant, the pendant will make the alarm inside the royal palace rings and send the coordinate of the royal that in danger through the pendant.
âI will, Reindell. Thanksâ¦â Thanked Azaline as she could help but feel emotional as he saw the figure that had become her fatherly figure.
âNow, letâs go, Corvus,â (Azaline)
Corvus the sky king slowly flew towards the sky before completely disappeared through the clouds. Looking at the Tarot empire from above, Azaline and Geeta felt a strange feeling inside their hearts.
âWhy does it felt so sad even though itâs not like weâre going away from here for eternity and not going back?â Asked Geeta.
âI feel the same thing too⦠It looks like weâve got very attached to this place nowâ¦â Answered Azaline.
âTrueâ¦â (Geeta)
Both of them look at the citizens, their smiles, the laughter between the guards and soldiers that happily do their job together, the young elves that cheerfully run and play all over the place, it is truly a peaceful and heartwarming sight.
âItâs truly a wonderful place⦠No wonder we got so attached to it⦠I wouldnât get enough of this sightâ¦â (Geeta)
âYeah⦠Such peaceâ¦â (Azaline)
âThis place used to be filled with terror⦠Each day filled is with the feeling of unease and fear⦠It wonât be strange that the battle of life and death happened if my tribe meet your tribe before there is Ren. The concept of peacefully coexisting with the others have never existed inside our minds back then,â (Geeta)
âTrue⦠Even two different tribes or villages could battle against each other in order to rule or loot each other,â (Azaline)
âWell, this place got called the magical forest, not for nothing. This place is huge and filled with lots of valuable resources. The trees, the magic beasts, the stones, and even the ground are magical and unique. And the west, the east, the south, and the north have different traits, itâs not strange that every race want to reign supreme and take control of everything,â (Geeta)
âIndeed⦠to be able to unite all of the races to peacefully coexist and even make such a great and powerful empire in such a short time, Ren is truly something out of the world,â (Azaline)
âTrue. He is even more magical than the magical forest of Everdeen!â (Geeta)
âWell, I canât deny that. Even we, the beasts, respect the great emperor. Normal sovereigns would have us beasts became food, slaves, or treat us even worst. Even though weâve attacked the empire once before, the emperor is still generous enough to treat us beasts with respect, itâs a great reason enough to make all of us beasts ready to give our lives for him,â Corvus the Sky King suddenly intruded the conversation.
âTrueâ¦â (Azaline)
Azaline and Geeta couldnât help but once again remember the figure that the both of them respect, admire, and are attracted to as their heart couldnât help but once again remember the longing that theyâve been trying to forget.
They continued their conversation until they finally exit the magical forest of Everdeen. Before long, the Grandaria kingdom started to be seen from afar.
âIâll be increasing my speed, hold on,â (Corvus, the sky king)
************************************
Inside the huge palace of Gravendath, all powerful undead are currently gathering inside the throne room.
âSo they managed to flee, huhâ¦â Lich Ozâs voice resonated inside the throne room.
âIâm ashamed, even though Iâm right there, I let them flee, your imperial majesty,â Apologized Gareth.
âItâs fine, Gareth. Itâs not your fault, if itâs only the three of you that fight with them seriously until one side of you completely dies, it will give us unwanted casualties. You could say that the outcome is within my expectation,â (Lich Oz)
âYes, your imperial majesty,â (Gareth)
âLet me apologize too, your imperial majesty. I got too carried away and failed to land the finishing blow because of my arrogance,â Malacoda unexpectedly apologized towards the Lich Oz.
âIndeed⦠You may take what happened as a lesson, Malacoda. But youâve become a great support for Gareth, good job,â (Lich Oz)
âItâs my honor to help you, your imperial majesty,â (Malacoda)
âNow, you. Undead dragon, Sarathras. First of all, let me congratulate you for escaping death from the demonsâ hands, itâll be a great shame to have a powerful undead dragon like you that have a noble heart to die by the hands of the demons,â (Lich Oz)
âIâll pass the pleasantries and will ask you straightforwardly, will you serve and obey me, undead dragon, Sarathras?â Asked Lich Oz.
Of a sudden, the temperature inside the huge castle got extremely dropped. None of the sides have even unleashed their mana and murderous intent, but the temperature had got extremely dropped by the intense atmosphere alone.
âI donât know how you made Gareth served you as I havenât asked him yet, and neither had he told me. But I donât like the fact that heâs serving a mere lich like you,â (Sarathras)
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not just the other undead Kings, even Gareth unleashed his murderous intent in response to Sarathrasâs rude words against Lich Oz.
âDragon bones, arenât you getting too cocky just because most of the undead soldiers are afraid of you?â said Malistrode sinisterly.
âAnother word and Iâll kill you, you know?â (Ursula)
âDonât act tough like that even though you just got saved by us, young bone,â Malacoda said as heâs obviously triggered by Sarathrasâs words.
Everyone unleashed their murderous intent and is ready to slay the undead dragon if he says another rude thing about their emperor. Even the undead imperial guards that are not as strong as the Undead [King]s ready their weapon in response to Sarathrasâs words.
âI wonât tolerate any rudeness towards my master, Sarathras. If you dare-â (Gareth)
âDrop it all of you,â Lich Ozâs command made all of them stop releasing their murderous intent immediately.
âNow. Letâs spar, undead dragon, Sarathras. It seems that I would only able to win your favor if I defeat you in a fight. Now, come, Iâll make you kneel in no time,â (Lich Oz)
