CHAPTER 25: VALNA CRISIS

"What did you say?! An Opposer?! Your friend?! The one we throw away?!" One of the minister ask loudly.

"Your Majesty, we can't let the Opposer runs free or there will be disaster once more! We need to send the Hero to kill him! We-"

"Silent."

"Uh, forgive me Your Majesty!"

Before the king speaks again he take a deep breath.

"Even if we send the Hero right now, can he successfully execute the Opposer? We have been hiding the existence of the Opposer from the public eye for millions of years now and you know why. They are terifyingly strong. Most of the records shows that most Opposer either die of an old age, dissapear, kill themselves, seal themselves or turns into a spiritual being. The only Opposer that the Hero successfuly killed is the Demon Opposer and that's because the Opposer is simply tired of living. Don't get me wrong, the Hero of this era is strong but not strong enough to take on an Opposer."

"May I add something Your Majesty?" Ronin ask.

"You may."

"Thank you, Your Majesty! All I want to say is that I agree with that statement plus this is Haru we are talking about."

"And why is that?" One of the minister ask.

"He is my stepbrother. I know him. He is a very cunning person he act like an innocent person but in truth he is the mastermind behind almost everything. I'm sorry Your Majesty but fighting him even after I defeat the Demon King is not something I want to do."

"Don't worry, Hero! I totally agree with you. But you might have an advantage." The king say.

"What adva-"

BOOM!

A loud noise can be heard from faraway.

"That's not a good sounds. Send an investigation team. I'm sorry Hero but let's continue this some other time. For now back to training."

"How about the noise?"

"You will be given order after thorough investigation. For now keep yourself busy with training."

"Understood!"

"Aurora, keep watching the Hero party in my place! I have some matters to attend to."

"Understood, father!"

"You may go now."

As Ronin and Aurora walk out the throne room, the king sat there on the throne thinking about something.

"I have done my part. What are you going to do now, Camilla?" The king mumbles to himself.

AT THE CASTLE TRAINING GROUND.

"Yo, Ronin! Have you seen Mio going outside this morning?" One of Ronin friend asked him as soon as he arrives.

"Hmm... no. Why?"

"Look at her on that bench, she been smiling the whole time since she got back." He points at Mio who is sitting on a bench while rubbing a piece of wood.

"That's... new? I guess? What happen?"

"I don't know you ask her."

"Okay, I will!"

As Ronin walk towards Mio, prez stop him.

"Let's not do that. She really doesn't want any disturbance right now."

"Umm... okay? I guess?"

"Come on, go train yourself and leave her to me! Shoo! Shoo!"

"Geez, alright! I'm going. Who wants to spar with me today?" As Ronin left, prez turn her attention to Mio.

"Good day today huh? Our effort finally bear fruit."

"Yes! I'm relieved now. Haru is alive. His handwritting. He is here. He is... he is... Ah!" She start smelling the wood while rubbing her private part.

"What am I watching?" Prez thought.

"But seriously? Out of all things he write he wrote his gamertag? Moreover it's PrimeLord423. Atleast use the recent one not the one you use as a 4 years old kid." Prez mumbling to herself.

"Can you continue this in your room later? We must train now or else the king is going to be mad."

"Oh, sorry! I got a little bit excited. Hehehe."

"Sure. A 'little bit'."

TOMB OF THE DRAGON.

"Huh, weird." Mary grunts.

"What's wrong Mary?" Konami ask.

"Ms. Elize, who is Mr. Alan actually? Why does he has a servant? How did he transform into a dragon? Is that black dragon the dragon we are looking for? If that the case then w-" Mary suddenly sleep in the middle of her confusion.

"Fuh! Thank you Luna."

"No problem Lord Konami."

"Where is Haru right now?" Konami ask.

"He is on his way right now but he might be late. He had to turn back to collect material from the dragon corpse 15 minute ago so it might take another 30 minute to arrive. If he moving at the speed of light that is." Said Kiara.

"Wait, I have been wanting to ask! Why did both of you keep calling us by our real name and not our fake name? Like what if someone asked? I'm surprise that Mary hasn't caught on to us yet."

"Sorry." Said Kiara.

"Lately we have been too carefree around Lord Haru- I mean Lord Alan recently and we don't know why." Luna answer.

"Huh! Did he read a bedtime stories for you two or something?" Konami ask jokingly.

"Yes." Both answer.

"What?!"
