"W-Who are you?" asked Arslan, pointing rudely at Arryn's face because the young man had destroyed the Howlingbird's roof. Arryn turned to look at Arslan, and not long after, he walked over while brandishing a sword at the man. The blade of the sword with the blazing fire felt warm when it was close to Arslan's neck, making the man instantly break out in cold sweat from fear. "Are you planning a coup against the government?" asked Arryn, squinting his eyes as he stared intently at the man before him. "N-No. I'm not the one planning the coup," Arslan replied. It was clear from Arryn's eyes that Arslan's face turned pale white, his hands trembling in fear that Arryn would swing the sword and cut off his head easily at any moment. From behind Arryn's back, three soldiers in thick armor were seen running fast with both hands tightly grasping long swords. Their faces covered by a protective helmet, they sped confidently as if they could knock Arryn down. Arryn pointed his sword at the
Arryn stepped closer to the two people who could use magic. He took the gem in their hands and smashed the item until it broke by stepping on it. After the blue-coloured gem was destroyed, the magic circle blocking this room's exit began to fade. Arryn tried to open the door, which finally opened without any obstruction. "Do you stand with Luningard?" the old man asked, annoyance on his face. "I do not stand for anyone. I stand only for the people. They are my first priority to be saved from your threat," Arryn explained. "If you try to hurt the citizens of this city, then I will not hesitate to stop you!" said Arryn, threatening them with a solemn threat. As Arryn walked out of the room, several people were gathered in front of the Howlingbird noble leader's room. Most of them were curious about the discussion held between Arryn and their leaders. [Summoning System: Fire Cloak Phoenix] The young man again cast a fire magic spell to bring up a fire armour that protected him, alo
*** The next day. The man Arryn had asked for finally arrived. Albert came at 7 am alone; he was not escorted by his members. He entered Arryn's room and met the young man, who was relaxing while enjoying the refreshing morning air that flowed into his room. "How are you?" greeted Albert, extending his right hand forward, asking Arryn to shake his hand firmly. "Fine. How about you?" asked Arryn back, Albert only answering him with a smile clearly written on his face. Arryn was currently seen sitting on the single sofa, drinking the hot tea he had made while staring at the room's window. Albert was invited to sit on the long sofa close to Arryn. "There's something I need to discuss in secret with him. Would you mind waiting outside, Ivy?" asked Arryn. Ivy smiled. The woman didn't mind Arryn's request at all. She thought that perhaps what the two of them would talk about was so sensitive that it only needed to be known by those two people. Ivy walked slowly to the room door and w
Right after Albert walked out, Ivy entered and saw Arryn standing right in the doorway. Arryn's eyes met Ivy's, as well as the maid who had been accompanying him."How was it? A quick appointment, I'd say," Ivy said."Not really much to discuss. Pack up; we're moving out of this inn," Arryn explained, the statement taking Ivy by surprise, as Arryn had asked her so abruptly."Right now? But why?" asked Ivy, curious."I'll tell you when we arrive," Arryn replied.In the end, Ivy nodded her head. She walked inside with Arryn to start packing the things they would take with them, from clothes to snacks. It wasn't much, but things were things, and they weighed different things.There was a soft knock on the door of Arryn's room, and a maid arrived to offer to help clean up. However, Arryn and Ivy refused because their belongings were few."It's okay, we can do it ourselves," Ivy replied, seen carrying a bag that already included all of their belongings.The two walked out of the room, with
"Nice place, by the way. I didn't expect you to have such a nice house in the depths of the forest," Arryn replied, praising the gorgeous interior inside Albert's old residence. Although he was the Commander of the City Guard, Albert could not be underestimated when it came to taste in interiors. The beauty of Albert's house reminded Arryn of the famous interior designs in medieval times. Compared to the houses Arryn had been to in the past, Albert's was one with an exciting interior. However, one unfortunate thing was the house's condition, which was filled with dust. "So, about my meeting with Major Luxizar. It looks like I won't be able to make it to the government office," Arryn replied, seeing that his condition was starting to deteriorate just from walking from his inn all the way to this old house in the forest. "If you really need his presence, then I will ask that man to come here," Albert replied, reassuring Arryn that the man would call the mayor to come to his residence
"Evacuate the townspeople?" asked Tobias."Yes. The safety of the townspeople is my priority," replied Arryn, looking at Tobias.They sat on different sofas. Arryn and Tobias sat on the single-seat sofa, while Albert sat alone on the long sofa. Right before them was a wooden table with a tray filled with a teapot and three glass cups.Ivy served warm drinks to the three of them. The beauty shining from Ivy's face caught Tobias' attention. The man's eyes kept falling on the woman, not knowing who Ivy was."What's your name, pretty lady?" asked Tobias, his face turning bright red when he asked Ivy that question.Arryn, who happened to be discussing the evacuation route of the townspeople, was immediately distracted, looking at Tobias and Ivy. The young man was confused right when he found Mayor Luxizar trying to approach Ivy.Ivy herself did not answer Tobias' question. She remained silent and stood right next to Arryn, which suddenly annoyed Tobias because he felt ignored."Don't you k
*** The next day. Arryn went to dry his clothes in the backyard. He helped Ivy because he didn't want to sit around like a sick person. Ivy didn't mind as long as Arryn didn't get exhausted. They didn't have a lot of clothes; about three to four sets of clothes were dried that morning while the sun was shining quite brightly. Ivy was tasked with wringing out the clothes that were still wet, while Arryn was charged with hanging the clothes on a solid wire rope. "This is the last set of clothes, Arryn," Ivy said, handing the clothes she had finished wringing to Arryn. Arryn smiled. His right hand immediately hung up the clothes and straightened them. Ivy stood beside Arryn helping the young man dry the last of the clothes he had washed. "Even though it's only one hand, somehow I'm getting used to all these daily activities," Arryn replied, relieved that the drying was done. "You have to if you want to stay alive," Ivy said, picking up the bucket and walking back into the house. "
Arryn prepared. He continued to fly without deactivating the protection wall magic to guard the evacuating citizens. He had to run against time since his body couldn't fight for long. Ivy continued to fly by Arryn's side, accompanying the young man and hoping she could do more to help Arryn. "Is there anything I can do for you, Arryn?" asked Ivy. "This may sound crazy, but I have one request for you, Ivy," said Arryn, his eyes fixed on the two magic users from Howlingbird. "What is it?" asked Ivy, curious. "I want you to transform your body into a large dragon," replied Arryn. Ivy was surprised to hear the request, considering she had never transformed into a dragon. "I don't know, Arryn. I've never turned myself into a dragon before," Ivy said. "You can definitely do it. I have faith in your magical abilities and imagination," Arryn said. The two Howlingbird magic users launched another attack. The woman launched a water magic attack, while the man attacked with the fire eleme
