"Sir, this is your room with Miss Valentina. We apologize, but we can only provide one room because this place is quite small, and all the other rooms are occupied by other royal soldiers," the royal guard said to Arthfael.Although he spoke in a flat tone, Arthfael could see from the man's eyes that he seemed slightly scared and worried that Arthfael would get angry. But in reality, Arthfael wasn't like that. Instead, he patted the guard on the shoulder and smiled, saying, "It's okay. Besides, Valentina is also small in stature. We can share the room."The guard nodded happily and said, "Very well! If you need any assistance, please call me, sir. Or just shout from your room, and the guard will come."Arthfael was momentarily confused and raised an eyebrow, but he also nodded in understanding and said, "Alright. Thank you very much.""With pleasure, sir!" the guard replied enthusiastically and then left Arthfael.Arthfael entered the room and was slightly surprised by its condition,
Evening came, and all the soldiers of the Kingdom of Esteria gathered on the crowded first floor area. Meanwhile, Arthfael and Frederick were on the second floor to attract everyone's attention.Some people continued to talk about Arthfael and judged him not good enough to be a royal guest. Moreover, some of them knew that Arthfael was still at level 52 and not a magic user like them.Although most of the soldiers were at level 80, some of them could already use protective magic to defend themselves. However, Arthfael was not like that. That's why some of them underestimated Arthfael's abilities in helping the war against Firebelcher.After waiting for a while, Frederick finally appeared. However, he was not alone but accompanied by four women dressed provocatively. Arthfael turned his gaze towards Frederick."What are those women doing?" Arthfael muttered.Valentina sighed and whispered to Arthfael, "It's a kind of morale-boosting ritual for the soldiers who are going to war. So they
The entire army of the Kingdom of Esteria left their headquarters and scattered to various locations, including Arthfael, who went along with Frederick followed by other soldiers heading North.Throughout the journey, they remained vigilant, worried about the sudden attack of the Firebelchers as they headed North."Why am I feeling so scared? It's so quiet here. Maybe it's because the Ravenwood people have been temporarily relocated due to this attack," murmured Valentina, looking frightened and sticking close to Arthfael.Valentina continued to fly alongside Arthfael, constantly scanning the surroundings.Until suddenly, when they were almost reaching the Northern part, their journey was forced to stop as a Firebelcher monster appeared in front of them.Frederick, who was leading the way, was startled by the sudden appearance of the Firebelcher in front of him. Without hesitation, he drew his sword and swung it at the monster in front of him.Arthfael and the other five soldiers also
Arthfael's journey with Frederick and the other soldiers continued further into the Northern region. Several times, they were confronted by Firebelchers, which were swiftly struck down by either Frederick or Arthfael."By the way, your sword, did you make it?" Frederick asked, glancing at Arthfael's sword.Arthfael pointed to it with one hand. "This? No. The King Himself gave me this sword before I departed."Frederick smiled. "Oh, by my father? No wonder it looks well-sharpened even though it's not made from the best materials. But I'm grateful that the sword can function well in the right hands."Arthfael raised an eyebrow and turned to Frederick, who was standing beside him. "What is it made of then?""That's Ashbinger, right? Judging from the dark gray hilt, it's clearly Ashbinger," Frederick replied.Arthfael then turned his gaze to the other swords, which had handles in silver, red, blue, green, and even gold, similar to Frederick's."Each sword has its caste, and Ashbinger is c
No one can wonder what was on Arthfael's mind, but the man followed the voice in his head to do what had been said before. Arthfael quickly took his position, leaving everyone confused. He took a breath and exhaled slowly. Arthfael's eyes sharpened, and Frederick could feel the drastic increase in Arthfael's power, different from before."Let's begin," Arthfael muttered, then he started swinging his sword forward, backward, right, left, spinning, and repeating the movements quickly.As the space for him to jump widened a bit, Arthfael leaped backward, then he planted his foot along with his sword, creating a loud sound.Boom! Dooosshhh!The loud impact made the surroundings tremble. The Firebelchers around him instantly turned into ashes without Arthfael even touching them."I also want to receive a reward surrounded by beautiful women!" Arthfael exclaimed, then he swung his sword again and beheaded the Firebelchers around him simultaneously.Frederick's eyes didn't even blink as he w
All the Firebelchers in various regions of Ravenwood City were successfully eliminated by Arthfael and Flare in just one night. Flare easily disposed of the Firebelchers, even destroying their suspected breeding grounds for level A monsters.Ravenwood City, which was previously devastated by Firebelcher attacks, is now being repaired and restored to its former glory. The residents are returning and reclaiming their homes.As an appreciation for the assistance from the Kingdom of Esteria, the government of Ravenwood City fulfills its promise to provide a Soulstone, known as Soulrender, from an SSS-level monster, to the Kingdom of Esteria."We welcome the heroes of Ravenwood City, Lord Frederick and Lord Arthfael!" exclaimed one of the representatives from Ravenwood City.The sounds of excitement spread throughout the city as Frederick and Arthfael walked, accompanied by Valentina, who tagged along with Arthfael.Not to be forgotten, Flare, the phoenix bird and Arthfael's contracted mon
Today, the troops from the Kingdom of Esteria were returning to the palace after completing their mission and were entertained with many women as a reward for their victory.For Arthfael, bidding farewell to the four girls who had accompanied him felt heavy. Because for the first time, Arthfael could experience being served by the beautiful girls from Ravenwood City on a daily basis.It had become a tradition in that place that when a man won a war or a competition, he would be rewarded with beautiful girls who would accompany and assist them.Arthfael gazed at the four girls sitting on the bed he used and continued to look in their direction like a kitten unwilling to leave its mother."I feel like I want to stay here, but it seems I can't," Arthfael said.The four girls immediately became sad and showed expressions that were difficult to explain. Arthfael finally approached and hugged all four girls simultaneously."Don't be sad, you will surely meet the right man who will make you
Three days had passed. The Esteria Kingdom troops sent to Ravenwood City to eliminate the Firebelcher had finally arrived at the Esteria Palace. Their arrival was warmly welcomed by King Galen, the leader of the Esteria Kingdom. A proud smile continued to appear on his face as he saw Frederick and Arthfael stepping down from the same carriage, right in front of Galen."Welcome back, my son Frederick!" Galen exclaimed, welcoming the arrival of the royal crown prince.Frederick immediately embraced Galen, whose body was as large as his own, and patted Galen's back several times, expressing his longing for his father. After hugging Galen, Frederick also hugged Calliope, who stood beside Galen with teary eyes."Thank you for returning safely, my beloved son," Calliope said, embracing her son.Attention then shifted to Arthfael's arrival, and not only with Valentina, but also with the rare level S monster, the phoenix bird.Galen blinked his eyes several times, making sure that what he saw
