Chapter 429 Arrived

Aerchon swallowed his saliva. Suddenly, it felt much heavier as if he was swallowing a rock.

"(Hey, what's wrong?)" Aurdis asked in a caring tone when she saw her brother's pale expression.

Aerchon turned to her. His eyes trembling. Aurdis could clearly see the feeling of shock from his eyes.

"(I see a giant Direwolf,") Said Aerchon.

Hearing that, Aurdis imdiately looked back towards where they had co. Mists were still obscuring thr view but she could clearly see the presence of the Direwolves waiting for them.

However, she can't see the giant direwolf that Aerchon ntioned.

"(I didn't see anything,)" said Aurdis. Then turned to Aerchon. "(We should go deeper imdiately. That way we can feel safer.)"

"(You're right.") Aerchon sighed. Then he ordered his army to speed up their pace to enter Sylvan Haven.

The Sylvan Haven is a resting place for Elves who no longer want to continue their lives, or for Elves who died for certain reasons.

This place is basically a cetery. A grave for the Elves. So this place is not a beautiful place filled with golden leaf plants, or like the Elf Palace which is filled with tall buildings.

This place is grim, and filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

The plant grows vigorously, but has dull gray stems and sparse leaves. They still stand tall over the damp ground but do not show that this place is thriving of life.

However, because of the large number of Elves who reside and are buried here, the amount of Magic that surrounds this place is enormous. There is no way any monster or creature can penetrate this place.

There is a building that is much smaller than the Elf Palace but the building is still called a palace.

The building is where King Gulben lives and accompanies his dead wife, Thandis.

Aerchon ordered his army to rest and set up tents. anwhile, he and Aurdis entered the building to et their father.

The father had neglected his duties as a King and chose to isolate himself in this place.

Aurdis gritted her teeth. She doesn't know what she's feeling right now. Is that anger, resentnt? Or... Feelings of longing?

The last ti she saw her father was a long ti ago. At that ti she only saw a broken man and she felt very sad.

At that ti, she understood and also felt sorry for her father. However, after all the problems that occurred — which could have been prevented by his presence on his throne — Aurdis grew feelings of resentnt.

Aerchon stood next to her and saw her face which looked troubled.

"(You okay?)" Aerchon asked.

"(Yes.)" Aurdis nodded briefly. "(Co on in and quickly finish this. We can't waste any more ti.)"

They went inside, down a gray stone hallway illuminated by light from the yellow magic stones attached to the walls.

After walking for several minutes, they finally arrived at the main room.

This room is bigger than the other parts of this palace. The room is so dark because the depressed King decided to turn off most of the light Magic stones.

King Gulben was sitting on a large stone chair as gray as everything else in this building.

He is an Elf with bright blonde hair that seems to glow golden when exposed to light. But, it was before he fell into a period of depression and sadness.

Now, the King's bright blonde hair has turned dull yellow, almost copper brown.

His face, which was previously clean and displayed extraordinary handsoness, has now turned into the face of an old man. His beard was long until it touched the floor and was a dim silver color.

The King's body looked thin and weak beneath the black robe he wore. The black color is a symbol of mourning. Sothing he's worn for decades.

King Gulben closed his eyes when Aerchon and Aurdis arrived. He seed unable to feel their arrival at all.

That is a normal situation. Every ti Aerchon or Aurdis visits here. That's the kind of sight they always saw their father do.

"(Father,)" Aerchon said. "(We ca to discuss sothing with you. A very important matter.)"

King Gulben opened his eyes slowly. Like soone who had just been awakened from a long, comfortable sleep.

"(Aerchon... Aurdis.)" Samuara the King has lost the authority and power that used to make even his enemies tremble. "(You ca to visit your mother?)"

"(Mother is dead. You should also imdiately realize that, Father,)" Aurdis said in a sharp tone.

This reply made the King wrinkle his forehead, which was old like tree bark.

"(You are being impolite, my dear daughter.)"

Aurdis didn't care about the remark even when Aerchon grabbed her shoulder to reprimand her.

"(Let talk to him first,)" Aerchon said.

Aurdis didn't say anything. She just folded her arms in front of her chest while looking at the sad King.

Aerchon walked over and knelt in front of her father. "(Father, you have to return to the Palace and take over the throne again. I can't lead the Elves. We also have to prepare to face the big threat that will co soon.)"

"(I can't leave your mother, Aerchon.)"

Aerchon clenched his fist. But he imdiately let go.

"(As Aurdis said. Mother is already passed away. You won't be able to see her again. But, Aurdis and I are still alive, father. So are your people.)" Aerchon said it with great emphasis and tried to be as gentle as possible.

However, he still couldn't see the change in his father's expression.

"(I can't be on the throne anymore... I...)"

"(So you're just going to keep quiet and let all your people die? Including and Aerchon?!)" Aurdis, who could no longer hold back her anger, shouted.

King Gulben looked at her with anger starting to build in his eyes. Suddenly, the room shook. Aerchon and Aurdis felt an imnse pressure that forced them to submit and kneel lower.

Aurdis gritted her teeth. She almost forgot how powerful her father was after all this ti. The reason he beca King was not only because he could lead.

"(You have crossed the line, Aurdis,)"
