Aretha, who was sound asleep, felt her whole body being blown by the night wind. When she woke up, she was in Kidnagan's arms.

She gasped when she realized she was being carried by Kidnagan who was dodging attacks from dozens of people.

'What happened' Aretha thought.

Many houses were destroyed with just one magic attack, but Aretha didn't hear any sound.

"My lord—" Aretha grimaced while covering both ears. The voice she let out seemed to echo repeatedly in her head until it felt so painful.

"Aretha, you are under my protection. You'd better be quiet," Kidnagan said.

Aretha remained silent because there was no way she could respond to Kidnagan's words.

Even though Kidnagan moved away so quickly, Aretha did not feel her body experience a strong shock at all.

No ones know what moves Kidnagan used. Even the enemy seemed surprised to see Kidnagan's agile movements despite carrying Aretha.

    Kidnagan walked with Aretha to the palace dining room. This time, Saber wanted to discuss important matters with Kidnagan.The atmosphere looks quite different because one of the executives named Reysri is not present. Saber even seemed to only have lunch with three executives.Aretha was quite disturbed because this lunch seemed like there would be a discussion about her. Moreover, Saber and the people there seemed to talk more sparingly than before.After eating, Aretha finally realized that there was someone who refused her to join the table."Kidnagan, can you tell Aretha to go back to the room?"Saber's question certainly made Aretha realize that staying seated in the dining room was not a wise move.Aretha bowed in respect before leaving the room.Saber sighed. "Aldof and Reysri proposed that you get married immediately. However, almost everyone agrees that your first wife should not be Aretha.""Are you a

    In the morning, Kidnagan, Aretha, and Saber rode horses to Kinjang City. They wore mage-like robes to conceal their identities.Aretha only followed Kidnagan's direction to sit at the back.Aretha realized that right now she could not be away from Kidnagan for safety.Even though she looked very obedient, Aretha thought of various ways so that in Kinjang City there would be no more massacres. She took out a small book and pencil to inform the residents of Kinjang City that Saber was there.***A group of horsemen entered the gate of Kinjang City.Demian as the highest authority in Kinjang City looked happy when he welcomed the arrival of 2000 troops from the royal capital.Of course with that army, he would feel safe. Moreover, other cities that he asked for help could add about 500 troops."This city is now safe. Although we don't know what Saber is planning, at least, the royal shadow troops who are looking fo

    Demian's face looked pale and his body was trembling. If he hadn't stopped immediately after hearing Aretha's scream, Saber's pointed spear would have pierced his neck.Saber laughed loudly. "Where did your anger go? Didn't you want to kill me?" Saber lowered his spear."Hell-dwellers like you don't deserve to live in the world!" snapped Demian."Enough!" Aretha's voice rang out despite the dust haze blocking the view.Saber laughed again. "Take out your weapon, Demian... so I can consider you as my enemy."When he saw Saber in person, Demian's confidence instantly disappeared. The embarrassment of despair and the desire to die had now turned into fear. He could tell that Saber didn't think of him as someone worth fighting."What do you want, Saber?" Demian asked."I want to destroy all the residents of Kinjang City-""No!" Aretha's voice came back. "Mr. Demian, Mr. Saber will only kill people who brandish weapo

    For three days, Kidnagan was forced to confine himself as Aretha refused to eat due to her disappointment over the destruction of Kinjang City.Although Aretha's body looked weak, Kidnagan could only urge her to pay attention to her health. Kidnagan of course realized that Aretha was also very angry with him."Aretha, how long will you judge yourself?" Kidnagan asked.Aretha lay down with her back to Kidnagan, who was sitting next to the bed."Let's make an agreement to mediate this difference."Aretha took a sitting position. "What can I get?" Aretha's voice sounded hoarse. "I don't have anything to offer.""I intend to marry you. As such, you have a bit of authority in taking action...."Kidnagan added the explanation that Saber wanted to establish a kingdom. With the current strength of Saber's followers, Saber was able to balance the war with the Artshimmeri kingdom."If I become your wife, can you stop kill

    A week later, the wedding was held. The evening was more festive than ever.Saber married two young girls from the village he was allied with, while Kidnagan married Aretha.The two couples sat watching the people dance around the campfire.Aretha looked so elegant. The dress she wore was made of threads covered in gold. Even the shoes she wore were made of gold and the highest quality animal skins. The gold crown she wore further showed how beautiful Aretha was.Although she looked awkward when people congratulated her, Aretha tried to smile as friendly as possible.Although Saber's followers showed their naivety because they were mesmerized by Aretha's makeup Kidnagan was still acting as usual.The luxurious clothes Kidnagan wore only further showed the class differences that were so obvious with ordinary people.Kidnagan's calm demeanor also seemed to announce that he was a superior human being who ignored the impress

    "Enough, Kidnagan." Boyzka intervened. "Right now, you are the main force of this city. If you wander off, I'm afraid the Artshimmeri Kingdom could wipe us out.""Very well," Kidnagan responded. "I will strengthen the army for absolute superiority."Kidnagan left.On the other hand, Reysri and Aldof looked at each other because they felt that Kidnagan had been hiding something from all of them.***Kidnagan slept in each other's arms with Aretha.Aretha was seen smiling because she dreamed that Kidnagan had turned into a good person.In the dream, the two of them lived happily on a foreign island that looked very beautiful.Unbeknownst to him, Aretha's body emitted glowing smoke until Kidnagan inhaled it.A strange reaction shot through Kidnagan's entire body.Kidnagan seemed to float in the air with his body feeling very light. Kidnagan could feel that he had inhaled something that could refre

    Kidnagan set up camp near the northern outermost fort.He chose that place because there was a forest-like area of trees.Aretha took out the cooking utensils and ingredients. Although surprised, she did not ask about Kidnagan's behavior which was different from usual.After finishing setting up the tent, Kidnagan sat down next to Aretha. "Aretha, did you use 'Esper Energy' on me?"Aretha looked at Kidnagan in astonishment. "My husband, I don't know what you're asking," Aretha replied.Kidnagan told Aretha all about the dream. All the foreign terms spoken by the man who claimed to be Kidnagan's father were revealed to Aretha.Although she didn't know the cause of the dream, Aretha was happy that Kidnagan began to show a difference in tone of voice and began to be friendly."The cluster of continents called the 'Ring of Frozen Dragon' is probably where we live," Aretha said."Please tell me what you know," Kidnag

    Despite having recovered his strength, Kidnagan continued with the camp as he still wanted to find out how Aretha could use 'Esper Energy'.Kidnagan suspected that the glowing smoke that Aretha's body could release was 'Esper Energy'.Unfortunately, the observation did not go well. Kidnagan was unable to solve the riddle of Aretha who was unknowingly able to use 'Esper Energy'.Knowing that Boyzka had returned from searching for ingredients for the 'Rafael's Breath' potion, Kidnagan returned to the palace.Kidnagan was greeted with applause from Fred, Boyzka, and Saber.The three men felt that Kidnagan had had enough of making out with Aretha.Kidnagan shook his head in mockery. "Right away, put all the ingredients into the alchemy room. Put in just one grasshopper monster. The rest, maybe can be roasted for the party.""What?" Boyzka gasped. "What about the fifty dozens of grasshopper monsters we've painstakingly captur

    "As superintendent, I have the power to discipline you both." Kidnagan's hand struck a gripping pose.Slowly the water particles on the ground and in the air floated between Kidnagan's fingers. While continuing to absorb the water particles, the collected water was poured onto Reysri's back.Reysri was dying and looked like he wanted to speak but couldn't because his lungs were damaged.Reysri's blood, which had been on the ground, now evaporated and disappeared. In its place, Reysri's destroyed body parts began to regenerate.Although not yet fully regenerated, Reysri rushed away. His hands were still dangling because they couldn't be moved while his spine was intact again.On the other hand, Aldof seemed to have recovered although cold sweat was still breaking out on his forehead. "Kid!" Aldof snapped. "What's the point of you doing all this? If we obliterated that city, where did we go wrong?"Unexpectedly, Kidnagan was suddenly in front of Aldof. Not only that. Kidnagan kicked Ald

    Chapter 30 Disciplining Reysri and Aldof

    Reysri and Aldof used magic to heal the body instantly. The legs and arms that were previously broken slowly recovered."Kid! What have we done wrong?" Reysri grimaced in pain with anger on his face.Kidnagan replied, "You two are not at fault. This matter is merely a difference of opinion between us."Kidnagan leaped down from the tree and sped off at a great speed. This time, his movements did not make any noise.Reysri immediately stood up and strengthened his stance. When Kidnagan appeared before him, Reysri did not immediately dodge. He knew that Kidnagan's movements were very difficult to guess.The moment Kidnagan's fingers were seen clenching into fists, Reysri instantly brought up two shields from the "other dimension's storage". As Reysri had predicted, one of Kidnagan's hands touched the shields until Kidnagan's trajectory changed.With his main focus being on that touch, Kidnagan twisted his body and switched to using his legs to attack.A boom sounded so loud that Reysri

    Chapter 29 Kidnagan's cold demeanor.

    Aretha woke up in Kidnagan's arms. They were now on the head of the mammoth monster on their way home.Behind them, Saber still looked awkward. The reason was, that Kidnagan seemed to be angry with Reysri and Aldof.Previously, the troops led by the executives had returned home.Boyzka and Joseph managed to expel the people, the soldiers, and the nobles without the need to fight.On the other hand, Aldof and Reysri did not start the war, but they both chose to retreat and immediately went on a mission to create a border using a 'living fortress'.This made Kidnagan upset because there was a city that was trapped in Saber's territory.Aretha looked at Kidnagan who seemed to be acting colder than usual. "My husband, was this mission completed as planned?""I will make sure of it."Saber looked uneasy sensing that Kidnagan was not amenable to discussion. "Kid, how about we stop by Leba City? Maybe you'll find an in

    Chapter 28 The Artshimmeri Kingdom's troops tried to destroy the 'living fortress'.

    Aretha woke up and saw that everything was dark. She moved her hands and began to observe that her body and dress seemed to emit light.Her body was very light and could freely float in any direction.While trying to take in the atmosphere, Aretha saw Kidnagan sitting.Kidnagan sat cross-legged with his left palm in front of his stomach and facing upwards, while his right hand was on top of his left palm as if he was holding a 'quill pen' using two fingers.Aretha floated over to Kidnagan. "My husband." She smiled. "I knew you were a good man."Aretha thought they were both dead. Kidnagan being there showed that Kidnagan was not a bad person. However, she did not know why Kidnagan was in that strange place.Earlier, when Aretha's consciousness had not been lost, Kidnagan channeled a unique wave until Aretha felt that their minds were connected.Aretha did not understand the situation, but she believed that Kidnagan might

    "My husband." Aretha winced in pain as Kidnagan enveloped Aretha's body with his protection moves.Kidnagan stopped and put Aretha down. "Your esper level is still too low. With your strength, your body will not be able to keep up with my movements. Now, do you understand?"Kidnagan caught dozens of knives aiming at the two of them."I beg you, do not harm them." Aretha looked at Kidnagan with a pitiable face."I'll try."Just as the 20 people in the distance were about to throw knives, the knives in Kidnagan's hands shot out with lightning speed to hit their knives.The ambush party was surprised because Kidnagan's attack was so fast that it didn't seem to show Kidnagan's movements.Nevertheless, they did not give up. They darted to attack Kidnagan."Aretha," Kidnagan said, "embrace me."Aretha hugged Kidnagan.Without further ado, Kidnagan grabbed Aretha's body with his right hand as the ambushers began to attack with swords and spears.Kidnagan looked overwhelmed dodging the attack

    Demian raised his head while still kowtowing. "Lord Kidnagan, you can finish off anyone who dares to oppose you. I beg you, give a chance to people who don't want to interfere with this matter.""I'll give you time to leave here. However, I will not tolerate insubordination." With a cold expression, Kidnagan jumped up again to return to his original position.Demian caught his breath because, since Kidnagan's arrival, he was afraid that the roar of his breath would offend Kidnagan. "Get out of here." Demian looked at the other nobles. "We'll take all the residents to the capital.""Okay." Everyone who was there could only follow Demian's orders.About half an hour passed, and the residents who had taken refuge around the mammoth monster also left with the residents of Leba City.The soldiers walked at the edge of the line to prevent the monsters from attacking the group.There was crying from inside the carriage. They cried in front of the coffin containing Alba's body. Although Alba'

    Chapter 25 Kidnagan's way of negotiating

    The atmosphere on the battlefield looks very bad. Saber's troops are now slowly healing after being doused with water. Any wound can heal when splashed with water.Not only that, they also lowered the five cross poles used to bind the troops carrying news. As the heads and bodies were arranged neatly and then splashed with water, the five mages came back to life.The five of them looked very upset and grumbled about being defeated by hundreds of people from the village.Saber laughed at that. "No need to worry... As you can see, we have successfully defeated this village.""Thank you, my lord," the five of them replied in unison.Kidnagan's presence on the battlefield made all of Pecco's troops perish without a trace. The bodies lying on the battlefield were absolutely only from the village's troops.If Kidnagan hadn't intervened, the village troops would have also been wiped out. However, they would have been more tormented than they were now. They would have died of monsters becaus

    Saber walked over to Aretha. "Didn't you see the troop of heralds last night?" Saber pointed to the cross pillar near the gate. "Those five men are my troops that you saw last night.""Please, give them one more chance.""Sure." Saber stretched his muscles. "If they can escape from my troops.""No! You must pull back your troops!"Aretha was helpless in the face of Kidnagan's arms. She could only watch as Saber's horsemen lined up neatly, slowly approaching the village.The mages and esper in the village trembled at the sight of Saber's troops.It was the first time in their history that they had seen an army riding a horse monster. Although the mammoth monsters did not attack, they knew how difficult it was to face the monsters.Most of the 'paranungsa' in the village were survivors of villages that had been invaded by monsters. They agreed to unite in the village to survive as a group. Unfortunately, the 3-meter tall monster had the strength equivalent to a 3rd level esper. They cer

    Chapter 23 Embarking on a 'Territory Expansion' mission

    In the evening, Kidnagan joined Saber and the executives sitting around a large table in the meeting room. He was attending a meeting about the territory expansion that would take place the next day.Meanwhile, Aretha sat on the edge of the main table with the wives of the executives and Saber. Although awkward, Aretha tried to enjoy the meal. The women very rarely discussed power.Like today, they chose to discuss fancy clothes, jewelry, good food, and things they liked. They did not touch on the world of men at all, even though they were paranungsas. It was a long-held tradition to secure their lives from the cruelty of the male world.Instantly, the sound of chatter became small as Saber started the meeting."Alright." Saber unfolded a map made of animal skin. "I want Kinjang City to be included in our territory too."Saber then drew a circle using an anchor, with the center pointing to Saber City.With the circle he made, the 3 cities in the west would be included in the 'Territor
