After settling everything, Lord Seth asks his servants to put on his armor.His armor is specially made for him. The design is exquisite but not to flashy befit his demeanor. But what is really special in his armor is because the rune magic was endowed with it using the refined artificial demon core.During the first trial of making an artificial demon core, they tried to use rune magic with the teaching of the demon race using the artificial demon core as an alternative to earth affinity.They learned that making weapons and armor endowed with rune magic is possible. They have all the necessary ingredients to make it but they lack one ingredient, the earth attribute.Magician with earth attribute is so rare but with the help of demon delegations, they can use the artificial demon core as an alternative to earth attributes but the quality will be lessened which is considered an inferior prototype to the normal process of endowing magic rune to weapons and armor.It is still better tha
After receiving orders from their Master, they leave the tent and gathered all the knights and magicians around, and make a formation befitting their rank.Seeing his two disciples leave, Lord Seth made a pained expression. He cannot bear to tell his disciples about the doubt he started to feel before leaving the Ruel Empire.He started to doubt not his loyalty to the empire but to the Emperor himself.Years ago, during a peaceful talk with the Emperor. A sudden change in the atmosphere occurs and a mist of white smoke appeared and slowly emits a pure white light.The sight of white smoke emitting a pure white light is so majestic and holy that he mistook is a sign of prosperity in the Ruel Empire. But after a couple of seconds, amidst the pure white light, there is something in its aura that made his instinct to defend himself from it.In this instance, a sudden urge rise in his mind to warn the emperor to keep him from harm’s way. But once his gaze fell on the emperor, he was shocke
Everything is going smoothly but a sudden change happens when the Vitalis Kingdom invites a higher-rank demon.They become agitated and mad and want to destroy the Vitalis kingdom instantly but when they heard their reason, they reluctantly set it aside for now and to include the demon race in their plan.They will know that this secret meeting is considered treachery by humankind. But they have no choice, the power of the Ruel Empire and the Vitalis Kingdom combined barely hold off the demon beasts that starting to destroy their southern territory.The emperor decided to tell everything once a concrete plan was laid.But as the continuous secret meeting progressed, the choice of the emperor is getting thin until he has no choice but to agree.Because one day, when the southern wall was in the midst of collapsing, the higher rank demon together with its small soldiers hold off the demon beasts and give time to the Ruel Empire an amount of time to repair and strengthen their walls agai
A servant panting like he run a hundred miles without stopping. His body is slumped flatly on the ground just outside the royal palace, and his chest is heaving up and down faster and faster.The knights surround him enough to give space for him to breathe. The magician quickly chants and casts a spell to relax his body and help him through his breathing.It is only after his breathing becomes normal again that the Captain guarding the gate of the royal palace starts to question him.“May I know what is so urgent resulting in you being in this pitiful state?”“I-I w-was…”The servant stuttered so he take a deep breath before continuing to speak.“I-I am a servant and a messenger under Lord Seth’s command. He sent me to inform the Emperor that the situation in Auburn City is dire and they needed assistance personally from the Emperor.”The servant relays the message in one breath.The Captain becomes agitated and quickly orders the knights to relay the message to the Royal Palace.The
Everyone inside the tent is agitated, the atmosphere is heavy and everyone’s brows are deeply furrowed.But it was Celeste who is restless and most affected, she is currently the highest in command which is officially known by their knights, magicians, and citizens. That is why it is normal that she is pacing back and forth.She just stopped when Bea calmed her down and told her to swiftly decide in a solemn tone.“Celeste calmed down. We need you to decide whether we heed his advice or not.”Celeste becomes more agitated. She wasn’t used to this kind of pressure and it was her first time deciding the city’s fate.A single mistake would lead to the destruction of the city.“But…” Celeste muttered but in the end heeded her advice. How did it come this?It happened two days ago. The rest of the Imperial Army decided to attack Auburn City. At first, they were at a stalemate. Their side is doing good, they keep the enemy at bay, and blocked every attack they throw at them.But suddenly, t
Everyone inside the city, mostly those in the rampart which includes the leaders and commander of the city were taken aback by how powerful the three consecutive magic attacks were.But what terrified them the most is the durability of their gate. Although some of it was destroyed, looking at it, the enemies still cannot infiltrate the city.They were dumbstruck by how durable their gate is. Even the walls are durable because they didn’t receive damage, even a single dent when the last magic attack collided on the gate.Everyone is in awe and terrified but those only in the upper echelons know the exact reason why the gate and walls are still intact.The rune magic is really terrifying.Although they are safe for the time being, it didn’t take to be smart to know how deadly the attack was earlier if their gate crumble down.Imagining beyond things without the protection of gate and walls send a shiver down their spine.Celeste and others were beyond thankful. If not for Jin’s knowledg
The previous talk brings to the current situation.Everyone inside the mansion thought that the gravity of the situation was so severe, which made Celeste still hesitant and uncertain about the decision she should make or that’s what everyone thought.But Celeste knew which decision should be made. Although she is certain but thinking the consequences of making a decision are enough to make her heart waver.She was just a simple girl not until the war broke out between the city and the empire.She never once thought the lives of thousands including the citizen will be decided by her.Celeste sighed and look at the faces present inside the mansion.Robert has crossed arms while his eyes are closed, although he looks relaxed the atmosphere he emits is gloomy same as Matt.Captain Glenn is nervous which she understood.As for Bea and Selene, they are seated beside her and trying to support her.Before deciding to talk, she took a glance at the closed door where the handsome man just left
“She decided not to heed your advice. She is thankful. As showing her respect and gratitude to you, she conveyed that you should switch sides now and help us get rid of the emperor.”The young man told him in a confident and calm tone.Lord Seth was dumbfounded. He expected the first answer but he still hopes that Lady Celeste would surrender but the last answer he heard made him stunned like a statue on the ground.He cannot help but asked the young man again and the young man just nod and told him again about the decision and invitation.His lips twitched not because of being insulted, but because of amazement.And after a couple of seconds, he cannot help it but release the restrained laughter.His merrily laugh resounded on the plain battlefield.Jin was stunned. But he quickly figured out why this old man laugh merrily like the current matter at hand is not serious.He just stood there and let Lord Seth laugh to his heart’s content.After a long while, Lord Seth wipe the tears th
