"No."
Heath answered firmly. But he added.
"Not for now. My sister is having a lot in mind and she is focused on something very important. When I feel the time is right, I will ask her. But not now,” Heath answered in an absolute voice.
Eoin felt a little dissatisfied, but he knew that he couldn't force it. He muttered, "Hmm, you are stubborn, just like your grandfather."
Axias smiled, and he agreed to Heath's decision. He also agreed about Heath's stubbornness which reminded him of his and Eoin's Father, the Second Emperor.
Well, if Heath still won't tell his sister, Eoin would try to find the woman himself and ask her if she was willing to meet her mother or not.
Of course, he wasn't going to let them meet right away.
Harriet was an understanding child. Eoin only met the girl twice, but he felt it was enough to guess what
That afternoon, at the hotel, after Eoin left, Axias looked deeply at Heath. "Are you willing to help in this war?" asked Axias. "I do. I'll stay in the capital until it's over," Heath said. Then Heath asked his wife once more, "Would Miriam also want to help?" “Of course,” Miriam smiled gently. Heath and Axias smiled at each other. They then confirmed the amount of attack power the Amaryllis Clan could offer, and at the same time decided how to cover up their troop movement from the West. “This time, since we suspect there will be Sorcerer among our enemy, Lycan's participation will be more acceptable and ethical. Sorcery is more dangerous than any large army, so make sure you guys also be careful,” Axias said as he was about to say goodbye. Miriam and Heath returned to their room, feeling a little calmer. “We will send a l
ZZRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSHHHHHHHH The sound of rain hitting the roof and windows of a house in Obsidian Port City filled the house. RUMBLE RUMBLE ZZRRRSHHHHH TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK “Ah-chee!” Harriet wiped her nose after a sneeze. The cold and damp air attacked her when suddenly it rained. She sat by the window on the side of the house. She was reading the latest report she had received from Jake Scolecite about the current state of the Imperial Continent. Just as she was so into it that she didn't notice the sky had turned dark and the rain was pouring down heavily, a long blanket was suddenly draped over her shoulders. Harriet looked up and smiled at Liam who came over with a cup of hot tea. The man put the cup and saucer on the side table and lowered his head, kissing Harriet on the cheek. "It's getting worse,
“Sorcery, and now a fucking Wyvern–” The Emperor let out a sharp sigh. In front of him now, a line of ministers and the Imperial council had gathered. In the throne room that was filled with all the most important people in the Euclase Empire and all the invited guests who came to the wedding, Axias cursed. “Haven't the Wyverns been exterminated by His Grace the Old Duke and His Majesty, Emperor Soleil I? How can there still be–” "Sorcery," Ezra interrupted Ezekiel's question, then added, "And Necromancy." Ezra who was still wearing her wedding dress furrowed her brows in memory of the events in her previous life. Supposedly, the experiments that Ethan conducted to create a strong air force still have not yielded results for now. Did someone help him…? And… why in this life did Ethan dare to show his trump card right away? E
“How many Mages can you offer, Crown Prince Hyacinth?” The Emperor's question marked the confirmation of his agreement to ask Heinrich for help. Hearing this, Heinrich smiled happily. “One hundred,” replied Heinrich. “But they are all my personal troops that are only tied to me, not the Hyacinth Kingdom or anyone else. You can assume that I am helping on my own behalf, not my Kingdom.” A hundred Mages were already a great help. The Emperor hoped that there weren't too many Wyverns for the opponent to ride–because if there were more than a hundred, it meant that the Diamond Duchy had prepared all of this long ago and the Emperor didn't smell any suspicious scent from them at all. Ezra thought the same thing. All of this was too fast and too sudden. How could the Diamonds have managed to build the Wyvern Rider Squad so quickly? There was no way they
“They say Diamond Duchy owns a Wyvern.” "Are you kidding? Hey! Don't spread unnecessary rumours!" "I am not kidding! The news had already spread throughout the capital, and even the Emperor had an important meeting. About Wyverns!” “Alright, back to work, everyone,” said a voice interrupting the guards who were conversing with one another. They all bowed their heads and saluted with weapons in hand at the sight of two women who appeared in their knight uniforms. Arai Padparadscha and the Leader of the Dawn Knight Order, Dame Caitlyn Emerald, walked into the fort. After the two of them walked in and went up to the top of the fort, Dame Emerald turned to her right hand, Arai, who had followed her all the way up here. “So what everyone said about the Wyvern is true?” Arai asked her boss. Caitlyn nodded. “I was at the meeting to
“You mean, there is a possibility of spies among us?” asked Arai. Ezekiel nodded. The two of them were talking on top of the capital's border fort, gazing toward the already dark east sky, with their backs to the sun that was about to set in the west. Ezekiel had a chance to talk to the Emperor when he asked permission to go to meet Arai. He and the Emperor suspected something, and it was Ethan Diamond's way of using the Wyvern to trigger the Emperor's reactions and extreme measures to deal with it. When he showed that he possessed the Wyverns, he would force the Emperor to discuss the best way to fight it in front of a large crowd. Because the Emperor had no other way but to seek opinion. This would also show what the Emperor needed in addition to what he already had. The Emperor had nothing to defend his army from aerial attacks. The Emperor had
Cloudy sky. The air that felt damp and cold enveloped the gaps in the mountains. While the imperial army had gathered near the interstate highway flanked by the Great Forest and the mountains, there was not the slightest sign of the troops from the Diamond Duchy. A raven flew low in the tree openings. And slowly, the black bird approached and landed on Heinrich's wrist. "They'll be here in an hour," Heinrich said quietly. “Hmm, I thought they would refuse to fight here,” said Axias. Considering that Axias had planted archers and Mages on the plateau on their right to deal with the Wyverns, Axias hoped their enemies wouldn't rush through with their full strength for the first wave. And even if they did, he would use everything he had to eradicate them all. “As you calculated, there were around 100,000 p
Ethan Diamond tightened his armour. Beside him, Cecilia stood with a warm and charming smile. "You just wait here, you don't have to go anywhere," Ethan said to Cecilia. “But, Brother, I want to help heal our soldiers…” Cecilia said quietly. The past few days, Cecilia was frequently brought by Ethan around the soldiers' barracks to spread the promise that all soldiers would be healed back to normal with her Saintess abilities. Cecilia was exhausted from having to raise the morale of the soldiers, but she restrained herself from complaining. "No need. Just heal the strong knights, no need to bother healing those insignificant ones," said Ethan flatly. Cecilia raised her eyebrows, she acted benevolently once. "But, we need to save as many people as we can...!" Ethan shook his head. "No. Just treat the important people. The others are filthy and they
