After making Elena cry, Aita left innocently.The time had come to depart to the rift.Selena and the others were speaking about important things with the officials of Solaria.They were discussing about the truce but mainly about the threat of Ankouna and how they could ripost.So they didn’t have time to come to see Aita.Well, it wasn’t like he wanted them to see him off either…He was also too lazy to say goodbye to his comrades from Lunarstella.Selena would surely annoy me afterward with that, but he didn’t care.In the end, only Aita was present for Lunarstella.There were also a few knights of Lunarstella accompanying him but they weren’t in his group.Zara wanted to accompany Aita but the latter refused.He wasn't a child who needed someone with him.Though he repeated that many times to Zara, the latter refused and treated Aita like her little brother. It wouldn’t annoy him if the little brother she thought of wasn’t ten years old…Little by little, people gathered at the en
“We have arrived, my Lord.” Aita opened his eyes at the words of one of his knights. Standing up, he climbed down the carriage before everyone else. As soon he got out of the carriage, the sun hit him in the face. It was quite a sunny day. Putting his hand to cover his face, he looked around him. They were in front of the entrance of the rift of the capital. Several people were going in and coming out of the entrance. Strong people could make a lot of money thanks to monsters’ skin, bones, etc… “Wow! Look at all the carriages!” “Are there important people?” “Must be! Look at all the knights guarding the carriage.” A crowd started to gather around the carriages out of curiosity. It was a very rare sight to see so many luxury carriages in front of the entrance. When high-ranking nobles want to come, they'd only with a few carriages to not attract attention, but this time, it was bound to happen. A heavy guard was needed by so many influential people. When Aita came out, he i
Aita entered, ahead of everyone in the rift. He gathered the gaze of everyone coming out. With a regiment of knights behind him, it was bound to happen.“Excuse me, My Lord.”The receptionist who was behind his desk came in a hurry. He could understand that Aita seemed to be a high-ranking noble but he still had to do his job.“I have to confirm your identity-”“He is the Lord Commander of the Lunarstella Empire.”Before the receptionist could finish, a knight of Lunarstella stepped in with a frown.The receptionist’s face turned blue and froze.Aita ignored him and continued to walk.“W-Wait!”The receptionist broke from his stupor and caught up with Aita, but the latter didn’t seem to stop his steps and without choice, the receptionist spoke while walking fast.“Which floor are you going to, My Lord?”He asked.It was an important question, since the people who wanted could skip some floors according to their strength. But in the Solas Rift, it was only until the fourth floor, as hi
“Blue fireball!”A sphere of burning blue fire appeared in a murky cave.-Crackle!Everyone in the cave could hear the sizzling of fire, they all turned their head, hearing the sound and seeing a blue shade tainting the bumpy dark ceiling.There was Austin, with his sword raised. A blue glow could be seen covering the blade of his sword. Austin’s peculiar blue mana formed a tread going from the tip of his blade to the giant ball of fire. His mana was implementing the ball of fire which grew larger and larger.“Kra?”The little goblin who saw a ball of fire which was more than twenty times his height and size was gobsmacked. His green face turned blue as he started to run away.“Kra! Kra?!”Everyone could somewhat interpret the poor goblin’s words.‘Isn’t that overkill?!’It was probably something like that and indeed it was overkill, but the caster, Austin, wasn’t in the mood to kill peacefully the goblin.-BOOOOM!“KRAAA-!”Like that, Austin killed one goblin on the third floor of th
-Booom!-Spurt!-Crackle!Sounds of fierce fighting could be heard on a vast green prairie. The sunless sky was shining brightly blue, the ambiance could have been perfect for a picnic if not for the monsters’ presence.After taking a nice and peaceful rest, they all headed toward the next location of the third floor. The atmosphere seemed so perfect that the weak-minded ones wanted to take another session of rest, but Aita’s cold stare made them changing their mind as soon as they thought about it.And they made the right choice as a tsunami of monsters was rushing toward them from all sides. Lions, tigers, eagles, trolls, there were all types of monsters. Soon the fight started and it was a gruelling one. They were not far from the end of the third floor. Only a few sections remained before they could reach the fourth floor. That was why the monsters were stronger than those from the previous areas.Riona immediately ordered the knights of Solaria to split up to guard each group of
Night fell on the vast plains and they all put their tents. Of course, they cleaned properly the bloody ground, before. With the numerous earth and water ability user, they almost created a new ground below. The wind user used their ability to blow away all the disgusting stench due to blood.Since they were together, most of the groups split to eat with their friends or other people except Aita’s group. Austin was speaking with Jake and Jaxon near a campfire and on the other side of the campfire were Elena and Daisy eating. Their group was slightly far from the other, but it didn’t bother them as there was a calm atmosphere.Aita was sitting on a wooden bench made by one of his knights. He was between Austin and Elena, not really close though. He looked blankly at the fire crackling in front of him. The sound was really peculiar and soothing.With a sigh, Aita stood up from the bench and walked away. He wanted to be alone.His mates looked at him questioningly.“Hum…Lord Aita.”“...”
“Never! So shut up!”Andrew, who watched Anna getting seduced by Bein, gritted his teeth.‘These fuckers!’He really wanted to rip apart the trio but couldn’t to preserve his image. It wasn’t the first time they had been coming to flirt and it put him off. ‘What is he doing?!’Andrew turned his gaze toward Jordan, who was just staring at them coldly.Usually, he would be the first one approaching them to tell them to fuck off from the place, but today he seemed strangely calm. Since Jordan wasn’t going to do anything, Andrew, with no choice, walked toward them. “Andrew?”But behind him, Liana called out.“A-Ah, Lia, nothing…”Andrew replied ambiguously. Until his wedding was over, he couldn’t show signs of affection towards the other girls to keep his image of a good guy to Liana.“Princess.”Gaut and the others greeted Liana. Though she was very beautiful, the trio weren’t stupid enough to aim at the Imperial princess. They weren’t dumb enough to try that. But the other heroes?Rat
-Munch Munch -MunchAita, who had been eating his skewer peacefully until now, had a sudden urge to throw the end table behind him.Why behind him, you’d ask?It was evident. More than twenty girls were behind him for some reason he wasn’t aware of.‘What the hell?’Though he still kept his impassive face while eating his skewer on the outside, he was really wondering why so many girls gathered behind him.He didn’t know the reason but he knew the culprits. Two girls particularly.“You’re Lady Noemi, right?”Aita asked suddenly Noemi.“Y-Yes!”Noemi stuttered when Aita spoke to her suddenly. She was even more surprised as Aita remembered her name. Well, she was his classmate for three years after all.“Then tell me. Lady Aura Ancel and Lady Claire Evans have been stalking me for two days in a row; morning, afternoon and evening without rest. What is the sentence for that, in your world?”““!””Aura and Claire froze.Countless stares gathered on them.“H-Hum, until six months according
