Level Up Legacy Chapter 907 Stockholm

"And now that you have lost it, you ca running to ?" asked Arthur with a frown. "How do I know you are not the traitors yourselves?"

"Long ago, our ancestor sacrificed her life for the world to retain its peace. As her descendants, we carry on her will to do the sa. We are on your side, creator," said Echoless as Miko was shocked by the accusation.

"I have yet to see the Berilo Kingdom standing as an ally of mine," said Arthur with a frown. Then, he smiled as he raised his hand. A hologram appeared to reveal the crown prince in his new ho. "I still have your prince, who once provoked . Are you sure you want to do the sa, Echoless?"

The old man was silent before he turned toward Miko. His eyes told her that she had to intervene and use the friendship she once had with the creator. The petite woman took a deep breath and walked forward.

"You once chose to believe Hazel would not beco your enemy even if you gave her that summoned beast, and I told you it was a mistake. A few days ago, while the world was busy with what was happening in Ilios, Hazel used that summoned monster to conquer a part of Berilo. We lost that artifact around the sa ti because we were busy fending off her attack."

"…I heard of no such news."

"No one dared to report it, and if the world knows that Berilo is also Mirage Organization, we would be crushed. We had no choice but to keep the secret and suffer the consequences of your choices. Do not bla this on us, creator. It was the person you chose to believe who helped steal the artifact."

Arthur was silent as he tried to piece together what he knew about this tiline. The previous Arthur seems to have chosen to believe Hazel over Miko, which made her hate him.

"Can you co back to the balcony, Aurora?" muttered Arthur toward empty air, but he knew the witch could hear his request. After a few minutes, footsteps rang behind the two guests, making them turn toward her with confusion. "She can detect lies from truths."

"And how do we know that she would tell the truth?" Echoless asked an interesting question. Aurora smiled before raising her hand toward the old man, which he took with confusion. Then, she turned toward Miko. After a few seconds, the two broke their handshake, and the old man seed convinced. "It seems that your ability can transmit to others."

"This is not an ability but a gift."

"We can trust Aurora to show us the truth. Repeat what you told , and we will know if this is true."

Miko was displeased that she was placed under a microscope, but she repeated her words anyway. Aurora stared at her before relaying the result to Arthur.

"She does not lie, as far as she believes," said Aurora. "Rember that I give the subject truth, not the absolute one. Everything she said was the truth, from past to present."

Arthur was now even more convinced that there was sothing he was ignorant about. His past life was confusing because it deviated too much from the tiline he knew. Thus, he had to shoulder the choices he made as soone else.

Alka broke his trust in humanity and the world, which made him quite the cynic. However, the previous Arthur never suffered the betrayals, the fear, or the torture that he did. Thus, he might have trusted Hazel as Arthur did before he visited Alka.

"I understand the situation, but how is this related to the Empyreans?" asked Arthur at last. At the mont, the ones who could threaten him are those dormant monsters.

"After the artifact got stolen, we had to assu the worst. Thus, we gathered intel from around the world about the other nations, looking to see who was the one to steal it. That was when we noticed their movent."

"Despite the vague words, it seems his words are true," said Aurora with a frown. "It seems they have spies infiltrating nations who could relay this information back to them."

"I t one such spy," said Arthur with a smile. "I still rember how Berilo kept an eye on through one of Mistletoe's mbers."

"…knowledge is power," said Echoless without sha over their tactic. "We survived countless dangers due to the information we obtained promptly. This is one such information, creator."

"Call Arthur Silvera."

"As you wish, Arthur Silvera," said Echoless without missing a beat. "This is the warning we ca to deliver. It is a gesture of goodwill from our king. Thus, he cos with a request."

"It is not goodwill if it cos with demands," said Arthur before he sighed. "You want Kirk Berilo, right?"

Echoless nodded.

Arthur pondered the situation for a mont. He kept Kirk in the Runic Do because Berilo knew of his identity, and they were becoming arrogant enough to demand him things. If Arthur had not chosen to topple the power scale between them, their positions would have been reversed.

"There is no more need for to keep him captive, and I don't fear any mber of Mirage or Berilo. Thus, you can have him back," said Arthur as he waved his hand. Suddenly, Kirk appeared between the four, sitting over a chair with a sandwich in his mouth.

"…"

"…"

Kirk Berilo blinked a few tis before he placed the sandwich into his pocket dinsion and rose from his chair. If one did not know the situation, one would never think have just been released from months of imprisonnt.

"Is it ti to go ho?" asked Kirk as if they were on a picnic. He adjusted his clothes before turning toward Arthur. "I enjoyed my stay in your do. If possible, I would like to visit again."

All four were shocked by his words, including Arthur. He even considered whether it was Stockholm syndro.Echoless was the one to snap out of his daze and hurry to kneel before his prince.

pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ "It is good to see you in good health, my highness," said Echoless before he raised his eyes to inspect the prince. "I see that the ordeal has not broken your spirit."

"…it was more of a vacation," said Kirk with a sigh before he turned toward Arthur again. "Although we have differences, I must admit that you treat your hostages well. Let us et under better circumstances and rediscuss our future, Arthur Silvera."

Arthur nodded without much thought, and Echoless followed his prince to leave. Miko stayed behind even after her comrades left, and she glanced at Aurora before looking at Arthur.

"You can leave us alone," said Arthur with a nod. Aurora bowed again and left under Miko's curious eyes. After the witch was gone, they talked privately for the first ti since Runera. "I have to apologize for what I did before. However, I did it to survive."

"You no longer need to do that?" asked Miko with a raised brow. Arthur smiled and did not say a thing, making her sigh. "You have grown too fast indeed. I still rember when you were just a neo-ranker two years ago in the trial."

"You protected well," said Arthur before he gestured toward the railings. "You can have a seat if you want."

Miko was hesitant but nodded in the end. She jumped over the railings and sat down, facing the vast land. Arthur followed her to do the sa and let the silence sit between them.

"What happened to that giant wolf of yours?" asked Miko suddenly. Arthur was surprised, and she saw it in his eyes. "It is still alive, right?"

"When the trial ends, all participants return to their assigned gates. I was the first one to leave because I was the one to end it. However, I had no idea where Kira entered the trial from or whether he would get to leave it."

"I thought you raised it?" asked Miko with a frown. Arthur assud he told her in the alternate tiline. However, he shook his head.

Kira was thrown into the trial when Ellen tried to save her mother in a different tiline. Thus, Arthur assud he would not et the wolf in the trial this ti. However, the two tilines seed to rge so that a paradox would not form.

"Are you worried about it?" asked Arthur with confusion. "I thought you would be here to hate again. Even though I deserve it this ti after threatening you like that when we last t."

"I do not hold it against you," said Miko with a sigh. "Even if Hazel and her charm fooled you, it was not the reason I was angry. I was jealous because I thought you trusted more than you trusted her, but I was wrong. That made hate you."

Arthur rembered their eting before his journey toward Mountain Range Rovero. At that ti, Miko confessed that she liked him as more than just a friend. However, Arthur did not feel the sa.
