Chapter 1018 zodiac City
Ery and Klea walked out of the gate portal into the half-blood's biggest city.
Once again, the view of multiple half-blood humans, each with their own set of unique features was upon the two and once again Ery was fascinated by it.
"I always find this place to be interesting," said Klea, followed by a curved smile on her lips.
"Ahh, you really think so?!"
"Well, of course. It's a beautiful city.." Klea then ca up close to Ery, grabbed him tightly by the arm, and whispered, "Well this city is also where we first…"
"Aaa yes, of course!" A hasty statent from Ery was made, cutting off Klea before she could finish her words. In point of fact, it was a bitter-sweet experience for him as it was when Ery hurt the girl and chased after her all night. That was also the very last ti he was here.
Apparently, Klea wanted to have a good ti while they were in this city. Ery, on the other hand, quietly stayed vigilant about the place.
After all, the headmaster Delbrand did say that it was not advisable to co to this city. On the other hand, that was 2 months ago, and Ery could not wait any longer. He had to put aside the headmaster's advice as he needed to see the Withe Fang clan in the hope of having a conversation with magus Herogar about the devour law.
That was why, to be on the safe side, Ery should go straight toward the wolf clan hall. The girl, however, grabbed his hand toward the market.
"Ery, there is so much interesting stuff in here!" Said the young lady with a voice brimming with enthusiasm.
"Yes.. yes... But can we please look around afterward?" said Ery anxiously as he looked around here and there.
"Aaa you are no fun…" Klea then confronted him and said, "Don't worry too much, Ery. Relax.. we are completely safe here."
However, as if getting an instant reply to his uneasy feeling, a dozen Zodiac city guards ca approaching them from two sides imdiately. They were the Tiger guards, which was the city's elite warrior.
"Ery Ambrose.. You are coming with us," said one of the guards in a commanding tone.
It was also at this ti that Ery caught a glimpse of Klea's whirly smile as she apologized and said, "Oops.. my bad."
Ery could only let out a heavy sigh in response. He can't help to think that Klea's words had jinx in it, or maybe this was the consequence he had to take for not listening to the headmaster's words.
After that, the two were escorted by the guards into the upper area of the city, A restricted area that was filled with dozens of buildings near the palace.
"Where are you going to take us?"
There was no answer. The tiger guard did not give any single response to the girl's question and appeared to be fierce as always.
Klea then whispered to Ery, "Could they be the part of the.. you know… the half blood rebels…" the girl said it with a little giggle. She then continued by saying, "I didn't get involved last ti, finally now I am."
"Klea, I think it's better if we don't talk about it." Ery thought that the rebellion by the head of Bloodline institute itself was not sothing to spur out casually, especially when they were in the Zodiac city
Soon enough, they were brought to one of the big houses that were perched on top of the hill, and once they entered inside, a female magus had been waiting on the balcony while gazing down on the magnificent city.
The woman was a powerful peak stage full moon magus, and the fact that she had two rough horns and scaly skin, Ery and Kela were quick to figure out that she's a dragon bloodline warrior.
The female magus shifted her attention to Ery with interest and said, "So you are the Ery Ambrose?"
Although the atmosphere sohow felt tense for him, Ery, however, did not feel threatened by the situation in any way, and he politely responded to the female magus with a little bow,
"Yes Magus, I am him."
"Good, I need you to wait here for a while, and please, it will be rude for you to leave."
Ery thought that the magus seed aware of his space magic, which was why she warned him. However, she didn't give an explanation and just left the two of them, which caused him to beco even more confused.
Klea, on the other hand, maintained her composure and like always said to reassure him, "Don't worry, I am sure it's nothing bad, or else they wouldn't let us wait in such a nice place."
The Egyptian queen made herself comfortable by getting so fresh fruit on the table and sitting around on the balcony.
If only Ery could have so of Klea's confident and easy-going attitude, things would be much easier. At least that's what he thought at the mont. Fortunately, Ery had nothing urgent to do right now. All he could do was hope that nothing bad would co from this. He, after all, already had too many problems as it is.
Hours have passed and it appeared whoever it was they were waiting for, had no trouble keeping them waiting. Ery turned to wonder who he would actually et. However, not long after that, Ery could sense dozens of people coming over the place.
"Soldiers!"
When they were finally able to get closer, Ery just realized that they were actually a group of guards, royal guard to be exact, which caused both of them to suddenly co to a realization of who actually they were going to et.
There was the female dragoon bloodline magus from before, but the figure that ca with her had such great power, much stronger than all the people Ery had ever t, a supre magus level individual.
A man in long white hair cascades with majestic black armor, two small horns on the forehead and a pair of crimson eyes staring at him
It was the lord of Zodiac city himself, King Alduin.
Ery was too stunned to speak when he saw the figure coming at him. Simply being in his presence was enough to make both Ery and Klea unconsciously kneel. The king walked past him toward the balcony, he then turned and the female magus dismissed all the guards and also ca to grab Klea's away.
Seeing Ery's anxious reaction, the king spoke "I prefer that we speak in private."
