Chapter 144: Second Arc (His Art of War) – 62. His Majesty Has Arrived

Second Arc (His Art of War) - 62. His Majesty Has Arrived

It was almost noon when the sound of hooves came from the outside of the Dragon Cross City gate. Gale and several of his troops arrived in the capital, while Dragon Shield Town's security was entrusted to his aide. A proud smile on Gale’s face as he entered the city in vigour. He passed through the quiet streets, his eyes were sweeping around, looking for pastry and sweets shops in the city. Angel had told his plans that the Dragon Cross City's security and the Fallensoar Family's safety would be entrusted to him while Angel went to lead the war in Zephyrus.

The castle's gate opened and Gale spurred his horse to enter. After arriving in front of the entrance, Gale pulled the reins around his hand to stop the horse and stepped into the castle towards the main hall.
"Your Majesty." Gale bowed and greeted Angel who was sitting on the throne.

Angel did not answer, his attention was on a snow owl that flew towards him. Once the bird landed, it turned into a white light that shattered into pieces, leaving a message in his head.
'We've crossed safety and are waiting for you in Stonemere City.'

A smirk developed on his lips since it meant Frost, Flare and his army had crossed the Zephyrus border without any suspicion.
'It seems that my plan to infiltrate Zephyrus territory through the southwestern route was successful.'

He turned his gaze to Gale who stood before him.
"Are all the preparations completed?"

"It's done, Your Majesty," answered Gale.

"Very well, I'll leave Draconis to you."

"I will not disappoint you."

After hearing Gale's answer, he descended from the throne and walked towards the exit.

Angel's feet stepped into the king's chamber where Queen Thea and Princess Tuvania still lay unconsciously.

"How are they?" asked Angel the servants and doctors who treated them.

"They're fine, Your Majesty. We just need to wait for them to wake up," the doctor replied, bowing his head in fear.

Angel looked at Queen Thea and Princess Tuvania for a moment, confirming their condition once again before giving orders to his guards.
"Bring Queen Thea to me." Then he turned around while his two guards brought Queen Thea from the bed.

But the doctor and servants immediately blocked them.
"Your Majesty, even though Her Majesty Queen Thea is in a good condition but she still needs a lot of rest. Her body is still weak, I hope you have the generosity to spare her," the doctor pleaded.

Angel stopped in his tracks and turned toward him.
"I have let her live and let you treat her, am I not showing enough of my generosity?"

The doctor pressed his lips. Indeed for a king from the enemy kingdom, he was good enough since the others might kill the royal family mercilessly.

"Take her!" ordered Angel once more. Then he turned and continued his steps.

The guards tried to bring Queen Thea, but even with Angel's answer the doctor and the servants still resisted. Angel stopped in his tracks once more and turned around. He swung his hand, the dark aura coming out of it, throwing the doctors and servants who blocked his guards.
"Don't test my patience," he said in a cold voice.

The guards immediately brought Queen Thea and they stepped out of the room into a carriage that was ready in the castle yard. Two of his trusted guards were also already on it. The door closed and their carriage began to move followed by his elite cavalry.
"As soon as you arrive in the forest near the Dragon Cross City border destroy the carriage and go to Dragon Shield Town to regroup with the others," he ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty," they answered.

Angel pulled Queen Thea who was sitting unconsciously, closer to him, his hand emitted a dark aura. In an instant, both of them disappeared swallowed by the darkness.
