Chapter 61: [Prologue Ark 2] Morpheus Somnus(8)-A Small Gathering Of Monsters

A FEW MOMENTS EARLIER:-

LIA'S POV:-

'As much as I find it annoying, those kids are way out of my league. I don't think I could ever match them,' thinking along those lines I look at Morpheus who was helping Phantasos out in his 'enlightenment', I guess? Honestly, I don't know what to think of it. This is clearly an enlightenment but the scale of mana outburst is anything but normal.

I wonder if this makes any sense anymore. What's more ridiculous? A kid without mana, strong enough to command Supreme Devils under him or a kid with enough mana to match even the highest Supreme Devils and like? Sigh... Then my eyes turn to the third kid who was observing them from a distance.

'He looks pretty normal...NO! NO! NO! I should not go on looks alone. Who knows if he is a monster too?' I think as I shake my head. I have seen far too many ridiculous things at once today. Looking back at them it seems they have done their work too. I see Phan losing consciousness and Morpheus catching him. Morpheus stores the mana sword in his space pocket before he slowly...princess carries him?

"WOW!!" an exclamation escapes my mouth as I look at the scene. This is...so beautiful to look at. 'Is it a forbidden relationship!!?? Is it!!?' My eyes sparkle as I observe the scene of Morpheus carrying Phantasos like a princess.

'Oh! How I would love to store this memory forever in my mind!! [Mind Magic: Memory Space]' I use another one of my unorthodox magic to save this memory. This magic has wide utility if used properly, and for obvious reasons, it is one of my secrets that only Father knows about.

I see Morpheus carrying Phan outside, as if it were natural everyone followed him outside as he slowly walked. Nobody made any sound and looked at that female Devil, honestly, I find it quite odd to find a Devil and other races walking together without making a ruckus. That too when you include my brother and Yavanna...

'Huh?!? When did they get here? Oh! Istan did say he was coming but I didn't think sis Yavanna would come too. Should I ask them about what happened? Not now I guess. The fact that even they are quietly following Morpheus, looks like he showed them a few of his shenanigans.' I can't help but shrug and sigh at that notion. Just where is this world going next? Especially with the addition of a piece like Morpheus, I really wonder what kind of storm will hit this world.

Soon we reach outside to find 4 people waiting for us. My eyes widen at the scene in front of me. Well, I had speculations that they might arrive after the mana wave created by Phantasos and Morpheus but, I didn't think they would really arrive. Especially...My father and mother, given my father's condition right now. The other two people were probably the Human King, Geavin Allen, and Royal Mage, Alethia. With Yavanna and Istan along with Human Royal Mage, Karina, the strongest forces of both the Races have gathered here. It almost feels like...a small gathering of monsters here.

Morpheus non-chalantly puts down Phantasos and looks at him for a few moments. There is a casual look on those three's faces: Allen, father and Morpheus, but for everyone else, it's suffocating to even stand here. No! There are two others who are 'normal' right now, that handsome guy and that Devil with the scythe.

Phantasos soon wakes up slowly only to get shocked at the sudden change of atmosphere. Then his eyes turn at Morpheus only to sigh in relief. A chuckle escapes from the Human King and Father is looking amused at his actions.

'Huh? He has this much belief in his brother?' I couldn't help but blink at his actions. Does he think Morpheus can save...

'No, I can't really jump at that conclusion without knowing anything. Even though it's ridiculous to believe let's take Morpheus for now as someone equal to father,' my eyes turn serious as I look at Morpheus again. The others seem to be following the same line of thought.

Morpheus then smiles at Phan before turning at Father and then Human King with an annoyed expression.

-Whoosh

-Clang

A sword clash occurs. I see Alethia attacking Morpheus with a slight furious expression. She seems to be going for the kill. The others including me are observing the exchange between them. Even though we should stop them from fighting as one of them is our benefactor and the other is our ally but I along with others can't help but try to look into Morpheus' limits.

Looking at the scene, Alethia's Sword is easily parried by Morpheus. It didn't look like he put any effort into it. Alethia attacks again...Huh?! How many times did she hit? I couldn't see it. Observing Istan's expression it looks like she did more than a few 1000times. Well, we are talking about that Alethia after all. The Guardian of Truth, the fastest Human Royal Mage in this world. Specialised in speed and defence she was supposed to be unmatchable among the humans. Even the Human King would have slight difficulty evading her if only speed is considered.

Her face crumbles at her attacks being parried easily along with the non chalant expression of Morpheus. She looks like she is about to unleash her domain but before she could do so Human King speaks,

"Alethia, return back. You can't defeat him," as he observes Morpheus with a complicated yet curious gaze. Morpheus looks back at the Human King and speaks,

"I know what you are here for. Before you start asking questions and explaining your actions let me speak first. He is my brother and he is under my protection also every Devil and adventurer along with other citizens are also under my protection. You both are a guest or more precisely a spectator in Eslaine and by both I mean, the Human King, Allen and the Elf King Geralt. You can watch what is happening here but that is all I will allow. If you kill even a single Devil here or try to pull any act against my brother, then I won't leave this place alive. The worst case scenario would be that we will all die," in a heavy voice that reverberated through the area as he gives a clear warning to not only the Human King but also my father.

The Human King Allen stays silent as he observes Morpheus for a few moments before he speaks, "are you with us or against us?"

A chuckle escapes Morpheus' mouth before he speaks, "I am pretty much an adventurer who works for money but also have a moral justice to do what is right. If I am to give a short answer then I'm neutral but right now I'm pretty much much against a certain Devil."

He speaks on an equal level to the Human King who is observing him with a curious gaze. Allen then looks at the Devil with the scythe and the handsome boy who are with Morpheus before speaking,

"All right, then I would like to watch what you will be doing here before I give you a clear answer." This...is beyond my expectations...everyone looks dumbfounded at this statement. The Human King will wait and watch because another 'human' ordered him to? To think I would get to see a sight like that.

Everyone then looks at my father. Since the Devils kidnapped his daughter, almost destroyed his kingdom once and crippled 2 of the 7 branches of Alfheim I doubt he will-

"I will wait too," my father spoke to Morpheus with the same curious expression that the Human King had.

'Huh? What?! Did I hear it wrong? No! No! My father who values his pride a lot can never say that...and what's that..' I think my eyes are playing on me because...I think I saw my father slightly smile for a moment there. As I am lost in my confusion, a voice snaps me out of my dilemma,

"All right. Then let's clean up the mess that bastard, Ladros, created here," Morpheus spoke with an enthusiastic voice as he looks at Zwain with a smile on his face.
