"What you had heard was true and that why I gather all of you here." King Rainard then stands up from his throne.
The other people look at me as they wonder why am I doing here in this room. I tried to smile at them, but they ignore me. Suddenly, an elf speaks to King Rainard asking who am I and why I am still here as this was a private matter between them.
King Rainard then replies, "No need to worry Neyla. This person was chosen to be the same as Xaniela and me."
Neyla couldn't believe what she has heard and started to get closer to me, but her action was stopped after hearing King Rainard told them that the demon had destroyed half of the Northern Kingdom. All the people shocked after hearing that news and the person with the mage outfit started to speak.
"Pardon me, my lord. Do you believe their message in that letter as this may be just an act by their king to kill our best soldier in their kingdom?"
"I agree with what Elan said as the Northern Kingdom always wanted to eliminate us as they grow weary of our place in this world," Xaniela said that as she worries that this may be a trap.
King Rainard began to think for a moment, and we rather expected his answer. He told us that no matter what, we still need to see it with our own eyes but he also wanted to take a precaution, instead of sending an army he will send a few people there.
"I have decided that I will send Xaniela, Neyla, and Arias to go there."
I was quite surprised when I heard my name mentioned in the team that will go to the Northern Kingdom as I barely know anything about this world yet.
"Umm...King Rainard? Can I decline this mission as I don't...." The whole room was silent after I said that.
The silence was a break after King Rainard ask me why I decline this mission.
"I barely know you guys and sending me to a mission without asking what I think is kinda one-sided and...." My talk was interrupted by Elan.
"How dare you decline a mission that was given by the King, I know that you were too afraid to go there right?."
This Elan guy pissed me off as I started to reply to his statement. "What wrong for being afraid? If I die, I will never respawn because I only had one life! Why don't you go there instead of me..."
"I will go there, but this was not my mission and the king want you to be in it and if I were you I would gladly die for my kingdom."
We continue our argument until King Rainard stopped us.
"Elan stop your argument with Arias!" King Rainard scold Elan for his behaviour.
Elan frustrated as he was the only one that being scold by King Rainard. "Why my king? I just...."
"I said stop Elan as this was my fault, to begin with, Arias was not even a member of this team and a citizen of this kingdom, yet I order him to join this mission." After he said that, King Rainard apologized to me.
I also apologized to King Rainard for the problem that I had caused. King Rainard then replace me with Elan for the journey to the Northern Kingdom. After discussing all of the plans, King Rainard dismiss all the people beside me as he wanted to talk something with me privately.
When all the people in the room have left, Kinng Rainard began to speak. "I'm sorry about what had happened earlier, but may I ask you what will you do now?"
"Nah It's fine, I never really thought what will I do next but honestly I wanted to explore this new world. As there so many new things in this world that I yet discovered."
"I understand but remember if you saw Exelon just ran away as he was far too powerful to be handle alone." King Rainard reminded me that the player killer Exelon would send his fallen abyss to kill me and be careful.
After then, King Rainard allow me to leave as there was nothing else to talk about and wanted me to explore his kingdom. I then leave the room and saw Greg was waiting for me outside. He told me that Xaniela had taken Lily to the garden just a moment ago. I ask the direction of the garden and he then gives me the directions.
After a few minutes of walking, I finally found the garden. Lily saw me. She quickly runs towards me and then hugs me tightly. "Are you done talking with the King?" Lily ask me. I replied that I had finished my talk with the King.
Xaniela walks to me and says that I wanted to find a place to sleep and eat for today as I said that I wanted to find a place to sleep. Xaniela offers me to stay in the castle, but I decline the offer as I want to stay in the inn and explore the area. I didn't tell Xaniela my actual reason for not staying in the castle that because of Elan.
She then guides me to the best inn in the kingdom. While we were walking down the road, I notice that many of the citizens stare at her. I overheard some of the citizens talk about how beautiful Xaniela was, and some wonder who I am.
I stared at Xaniela and I just began to notice that her character was an elf, with that long red hair she was indeed beautiful but still, my heart can't seem to forget about Princess Elna even though she was already married.
At last, we arrive at the inn. Xaniela talks to the innkeeper to give me and Lily the best room there was in the inn. She also pays our food and the rent in advance to the innkeeper before heading back to the castle.
