236 Two Rules

"So, there will be a war," Haru said with a heart-warming smile a complete contrast to his words. Queresha and Zenobia didn't react along with Jin-woo.

The former two kind of knew things would turn out this way since the incident at the council while Jin-woo had come here for this reason as his main focus.

"What? War?" Kanae reacted to the words with a little frown on her brows. She didn't like the sound of this at all.

Hae-in and Jin-ah also had serious expressions while the latter showed little hesitation but she stayed silent.

"Is it about the other continent?" Alea asked since the council was preparing for a possible war and what Haru said clicked with her since it was a possibility before but now it had become more certain.

After she joined Haru, Alea got a lot of information about the other continent that made her jaw drop, the news of the two royal families turning traitor made her blood boil. It made her question, What did her squad members die for? Even she would surely have died if not for Haru, she would've died for nothing as well considering what the Glayders and Greysunders did.

It took Alea quite some time to calm down after she talked with Kanae and Hae-in with Jin-ah helping along. So hearing about the war was quite a sensitive topic for Alea.

"Yes it is, But this isn't the normal war between Alacrya and Dicathen, but it is between The Tsugikuni house vs Alacrya and the Asuras," Haru said proudly making Jin-woo roll his eyes.

"W-What do you mean by Tsugikuni House?" Kanae shouted with a blush.

"Should I not say it?" Haru asked making Kanae freeze on the spot.

"D-Damn it, just continue with the explanation," Kanae sat back down making Hae-in smirk at her.

'This isn't fair, I'll get you for this you bastard,' Kanae pouted while glaring at Haru.

'Get to the point, I didn't come here to see you flirt you know,' Jin-woo thought while looking at Haru who smiled at him.

"Asuras? The deities? really?" Alea who came out of her stupor spoke in shock. The deities were the object of respect and admiration to everyone who knows them on Dicathen.

'And here he is saying he'll fight not one but the whole race?' Alea held her head and was extremely worried, she believed in Haru but it was really way out of her thinking scope. But her thoughts didn't last for long…..

SMACK*

"OUCH* W-why?" Alea was smacked on the head by Queresha and could only ask with small tears in her eyes.

"It is because you are doubting My Lord's capabilities, Did you forget the two rules I told you about?" Queresha spoke with a dark face.

'How do you know what I am thinking?' Alea was scared since Queresha was able to hear her inner thoughts somehow while the others just sighed in amazement as well. This wasn't the first it has happened and they still weren't able to figure out how Queresha did it.

But they were able to figure out the condition for this phenomenon.

'It only works when someone is thinking bad about Haru,' Hae-in and Jin-ah along with Zenobia were somehow able to work this out. But apart from this, there was one more thing that made them curious.

'What are the two rules? This is the first I have ever heard of them,' Everyone including Haru himself was unaware of the rules Queresha spoke of.

"Rule No 1: Never Doubt My Lord, Rule No 2: Never forget rule no 1, I won't let you off a second time, Do you understand Trainee Alea?" Queresha spoke with the most serious expression she has ever had.

"Yes," Alea did a salute and nodded with a grave expression.

'What is happening?' Haru had a dumbfounded look on his face, while everyone was amused by the situation and….

"Haha, Rules gahahaha, Haru a-and you call me chunni, now I wonder from who Jin-ah picked up her habit, Hahaha My stomach hurts even though it shouldn't, hahaha," Jin-woo was rolling on the ground banging the floor laughing so hard that even talking was hard for him. Haru surely wasn't having any of it and spoke.

"This is still less compared to your ultimate attack 'Deat- Whoosh* Oh, I wonder why you aren't laughing now?" Haru dodged Jin-woo's attempt to stop him and smirked in amusement.

"Cough* I think we made a deal to bury that one," Jin-woo spoke seriously.

"Oh! did we? I don't remember it looks like my memory is failing me," Haru said with a shit-eating grin Jin-woo was unhappy but he knew he will get his chance in the future.

"Ahem* Let's get back to the main point," Haru cleared his throat to bring the attention to himself since everyone was busy talking with Queresha about the two rules. Seeing everyone look at him Haru continued from where they were before.

"As Alea said before we are about to fight Alacrya along with the Deities in the coming days," Haru said making the other think deeply about his words.

"Is it really unavoidable?" Kanae asked with a little frown since if possible the peaceful option would be more preferred for her at least since it could help them avoid pointless casualties.

"I don't think that is an option since they made the first move by sending people to capture My Lord or all of us to force My lord to comply with their demands, My lord even gave them a warning and they are clearly ignoring it," Queresha spoke with anger on her face if Haru hasn't stopped her, she would've gone to Epheotus and turn the place on its head.

"They have already started to plan about how to attack us for about a month ago, and even if I did incite them a little it was clear that they would do it without me doing anything to them, since their leader can't stand someone stronger than themselves they would come after me one way or another," Haru said with a shrug while explaining the details.

"Well this is quite a serious conundrum," Hae-in spoke with a serious look, if they don't do anything the opponent would make attack them or worse people around them, and letting enemies be after defeating them was also a bad choice since they would look for an opportunity to strike back and they won't be staying here all the time.

'Kanae must be thinking the same,' Hae-in thought and that is what everyone thought as they would have to leave this place once they are done with what they wanted. So it would leave everyone who would be here vulnerable to the revenge of the Asuras.

"Ok I understand, I guess we have no choice but to put up a show of power," Kanae said with a sigh, as much as she didn't want to do this the opponent has already made a move so it would foolish to think peace is possible.

'If they can't understand that they would die even after seeing Haru there is no way they would back off now, And it is not like they will show us mercy if we were weaker,' Kanae thought while looking at Haru who was nodding.

After this Haru talked about what the plan was and how things are going to be, no one objected to the plan further and everyone went to the bedroom leaving Jin-woo and Haru in the living room.

"Are you sure you don't need to talk to Jin-ah about it?" Haru asked Jin-woo who was calmly drinking a cup of elven tea and he seemed to like it a lot.

"No she needs to get through it on her own because if she doesn't I will be taking her back to Seoul," Jin-woo stated plainly. This was the main reason he was here and he didn't tell his dad since that man would cause a ruckus for sure.
