Chapter 414: Side Story Chapter 14

Side Story Chapter 14

An elemental spirit mage making a promise on their elemental spirit was the same as a mage’s mana pledge; they were both making an oath that they could not, under any circumstances, break. If elemental spirit mages broke the oath without a good reason, they would meet severe consequences—namely, losing their abilities forever.

“Ten years. You only have to work as my lady-in-waiting for ten years. After that, I’ll set you free and condone all your actions as long as you don’t cause harm to Avalon,” Kireua Sanders offered to Anna.

Anna didn’t respond; she was still feeling weak after making an oath and was sitting on the ground, staring blankly at the sky. Kireua spared her one last glance before turning to more important matters.

“What are you?” Kireua hissed after he checked that he was far away enough from Anna.

-What?

“What is your identity?” Kireua asked again.

-I’m Coal.

“That’s the name I gave you.”

-I want a camembert.

“...Camembert?” Kireua repeated.

-I saw it in a book. It’s cheese!

Kireua’s eyes narrowed. “Are you doing this on purpose?”

-Huh?

“You aren’t the Demon Spirit’s pet, are you?” Kireua asked.

-Demon Spirit? Alcohol? I like drinking too!

A black cotton ball bounced up and down on top of Kireua’s shoulder, but the Prince’s expression didn’t relax. As a member of the Imperial Family, he was born wary.

‘I did hear that gods like the Demon Spirit and Angel Spirit were annihilated... but I can’t let my guard down after I saw what His Majesty went through,’ Kireua thought.

In addition, Kireua and Coal’s case was totally different from anything else in history. Kireua had never heard of someone becoming awakened like this and authorities were the powers that didn’t have certain forms. Coal, on his shoulder, had a physical body.

“Yo-Your Highness,” Anna mumbled.

Kireua had to stop thinking because Anna slowly stood up and approached him.

“...Just call me Kireua,” he replied. “You’re at least twenty years older than me.”

“Th-Then shall I?” Anna replied without an ounce of hesitation.

Kireua cocked his head. “Can you at least pretend to think about it before you say yes?”

“Hehehe, I look forward to working with you, Kireua.”

“You look and are sociable.” Kireua nodded.

“That’s a compliment, right? Thank you! By the way, can I ask you a favor?”

“...If this is about reducing the number of years—”

“Come on, it’s not,” Anna interrupted, shaking her head. “I already made a promise. Besides, I thought about it and it actually isn’t a bad deal for me. You definitely said you’ll set me free in ten years and I don’t have to leave Avalon as long as I don’t cause harm.”

“I did.”

“Then if your father really comes back...” Anna trailed off.

“Ahhh.” Kireua immediately understood what Anna was saying. She was worried about the Emperor punishing her. A long time had passed, but it didn’t mean the bad history between Anna bel Grace and the Emperor was gone.

Just then, Anna’s White Wolf showed up right beside Kireua and whimpered, rubbing its face on his leg.

“Certain... about winning this war!”

Cain sprang toward the opposite side of the valley.

* * *

Meanwhile, on the opposite side of Raymond Valley...

“Any news yet?”

“No, Your Majesty. It has already been an hour, but...”

“What in the world is that witch doing!” Dargo, the leader of the southern rebel army, frowned. His eyes were glued to the windless valley because he had a feeling that something was off. As he had already surpassed the level of a master long ago, he could tell that the situation had taken an unexpected turn through his sharpened senses.

“Ten minutes. If the witch doesn’t contact us after ten minutes, send two knight battalions,” Dargo instructed.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Considering Dargo had lost his son, he was displaying superhuman patience right now. If it hadn’t been for Cain de Harry, the Combat Emperor Star, Dargo would already have led his army to the fortress.

At that moment, a gust of wind stirred the stagnant air in the valley. The ground shook as if a herd of horses was running toward them.

“Th-That’s...!” Dargo’s eyes slowly widened.

The gale was as quick as the finest horses, but it turned out that it had been created by a human being running toward them. Dargo’s jaw dropped when he saw who that person was.

“Ca-Cain de Harry?”

Even the nearby executives started to murmur among themselves.

“...Wait, if the Combat Emperor is here alone...?” A possibility came to Dargo’s mind that brought a deep smile to his lips. “He’s here to surrender.”

Anna bel Grace was a wind elemental spirit mage of the highest class, meaning she could turn ordinary wind so sharp that it could wreck the fortress in the valley. Therefore, Cain’s sword technique must have been useless before Anna’s wind. Besides, Anna was great at hiding, so locating her wouldn’t have been easy.

Cain was now just twenty meters away from the rebels.

“...Heh, hehehehehe.” The end of Dargo’s mouth curled up.

“Stop!” the rebel marquis shouted. Cain stopped as soon as the mana-infused voice reached him, affirming Dargo’s theory. “Cain de Harry! Kneel this instant and I’ll tell my colleague, Anna bel Grace, to spare the soldiers.”

The moment the knights had heard the name Cain de Harry, they had drawn their swords, but they now knew what was going on.

“Yo-Your Majesty, does that mean...?”

“Can’t you tell? He’s basically our enemies’ commander, but he’s come into enemy territory alone. Obviously, he’s trying to surrender,” Dargo said intentionally infusing mana into his voice so everyone could hear.

The knights immediately brightened up.

“Woaaaahhh!”

The knights’ shouts were thunderously loud. The soldiers stomped their heels against the ground like the drums at a victory parade.

Cain watched them silently for a moment, and then chuckled.

“Pathetic,” he sneered under his breath. “Hahahaha.”

Dargo was the only one who heard Cain, thanks to his finely honed senses.

“...What?” Dargo said.

Cain laced his voice with mana just like Dargo had done as he opened his mouth.

“You all lost, you idiots!” he yelled.
