"You may enter." the voice said from the other side of the door as the knight looked at me and said "wait here until I call for you okay?" I just nodded my head as I sat up against a wall before noticing the knight had just left my side going into the room.

"Oh, Cerberus you're back a bit late..." The king said while giving him a serious stare before continuing, "I'm assuming you didn't come here for a simple hello." he said a bit sarcastic before eying at the current state of Cerberus's armor, "What happened to you?" he said a bit worried knowing that injuring Cerberus was by no means an easy task and to get that much damage off him was a great feat itself, then following with "Well answer me!"

"I had encountered a Katsuya in the forest along with something that could surprise even the likes of you, Your Majesty." Cerberus responded kneeling as the king looked at him a bit more calmly knowing that a Katsuya could potentially give him a hard time before going back to his previous remark about 'something that could surprise the likes of me' The king thought while asking "What is this 'thing' you are speaking about?" leaning forward in his throne curiously as Cerberus had just gotten up to tell Akira.

"You can come in now!" Akira's ears perked up as she heard the knight's voice in the chamber before getting up and heading through the door.

Pushing the door and stepping inside the chamber she looked around curiously before eventually looking at the King and to the Knight in the center while the King's jaw just dropped to the ground as he saw the ears and tail of Akira, "I-Impossible, no it can't be...How did you find her?"

Cerberus soon responded with, "After the Katsuya had appeared, she came running out of the clearing of trees with it in tow with it trying to attack her." as he lied to the King as he did not want to worry him of how she managed to create such a big crater as he did not know the reason himself.

The king clapped twice after which a maid from his side said, " Your orders, Your Highness?"

"Take our guest and see if her ears and tail are real as the others prepare her a bath and clean clothes" sending the maids off to complete what he had tasked them to do.

The maids just gripped Akira's arms while dragging her off leaving Cerberus and the King alone in the chamber.

The King looked at Cerberus and sent him off as well while thinking 'They did survive...' he then sighed before resuming with his previous work of resolving a recent increase of slavery in the kingdom.
