Act like a Fool, Shines like a Star!

Chapter 50: Kireno Kingdom.

Kireno Kingdom. A Kingdom that was found on a Tropical Island far North West of Shireno. The similarity on the name is actually come because, Kireno Kingdom is once part of Shireno. But then, They retaliated because they didn't want to be bound by the Law of Shireno.

And also, The weather on Shireno and Kireno is different. Kireno is tropical which is quite rare for something really far north. But It's how Vantage work. Normal science didn't apply in Vantage.

Anyway, the Old Shireno Royal Family let them go because they didn't want them anyway because they're bunch of fools that try to live off Shireno old Glory.

And now that they're struggling. They're coming back to their mother country which is Shireno. And now, Nick, Lavi and the nobles was talking about what should they do to Kireno.

"Okay. About Kireno. They're the traitor on the past. They're abandoning Shireno because they believe that they're capable on living by themselves."

Nick explained. Lavi was not impressed at all by that story. He hate cocky people. Because it's just a curse. Lavi also hate when he's becoming too Cocky. As soon as he get cocky, He lost. That's why he hate Cocky people.

"Okay. What should we do with them Your Majesty?"

The nobles asked. Nick immediately said.

"Discuss it by yourself. And both Lavi and I will get our vote in."

Nick said. They nodded. Lavi immediately said.

"They're traitor. You guys can get as mad as you could or as passive as you could. Which ever it is, It's what we're going to choose."

Lavi said. He's telling them that they're willing to vote. And even if the vote ties. Lavi and Nick get to choose. If somehow they're having different plan. They're going to convince the other team to join them.

That's how they're going to solve the problem. By compromising with everyone. Both Lavi and Nick look at the Nobles seriously. Lavi demanded that they're going at it seriously.

"Remember. I don't care if you rage or not. But make sure you have proper explanation to why you choose your answer."

Lavi said. Everyone nodded. Everyone immediately tore between fighting against the Kireno Kingdom or Allied with Kireno Kingdom. And as expected. 12 Nobles. Tore between the two answer 50:50.

It's Nick and Lavi who get to choose. Lavi look at Nick.

"You make your decision dad?"

Lavi asked calmly. Nick nodded calmly as well. Everyone turn serious.

"Okay. Say it now!"

Lavi said. Nick and Lavi immediately said.

"War!"

"Peace."

Nick choose war. While Lavi choose peace. Even the King and the Prince didn't agree on this. The nobles stand by their answer. So it's either Nick or Lavi who go to the other side.

Lavi was interested on why Nick choose war. So he want him to convince him to join the War faction.

"Tell me dad. Why war is the answer?"

It's unusual for Lavi to choose Peace at this time. Usually, He will go all in, in the war faction and he will destroy the enemies. So. It's quite interesting seeing Lavi choosing Peace.

"Lavi Listen. Tell me, What should we do to Traitor?"

"Destroy them."

"Exactly."

Lavi look at Nick like 'That's it?' Nick nodded.

"Well then Lavi. Tell me why do you want peace with them? "

"Well, I was thinking that if we peace with them. We can further improve our economy. By selling plane ticket to Kireno Kingdom, Everyone can taste the Tropical Island feel."

Lavi said. But Lavi wasn't done.

"And Also. My goal is to unite the world for Peace. So I would like to hear what the Kireno Kingdom think of this first. If they're up for peace, I don't have any problem with them. But, If they're staying hostile. We will take over Kireno and make it our own again."

Lavi said with confidence. The Nobles applause to Lavi speech, But then, Nick interrupted.

"With what? You're going to come in there and expect a great welcoming? Remember. They're traitor. They won't take kindly to Shireno."

Nick said. It raises a good point that Lavi immediately said.

"You know what Dad. I'm in! We will conquer Kireno Kingdom!"

Lavi said. He take out his sword and everyone immediately back off for a bit. Lavi look at them and said.

"Why did you guys run? It's still sheathed."

Lavi said. Everyone sighed in relieve. Lavi draw his sword and everyone back off again. Lavi chuckled and put it away.

"P-Please your Highness... Stop teasing us..."

"Sorry sorry. It's just a joke."

Lavi said. Everyone sat back on their chair and then, Nick concluded this meeting with.

"Alright! We will take matters to our own hand and attack Kireno on our own."

Everyone was ready to agree on Nick. But then. Lavi brain was conflicted. Do he want that to happened?

'What happened to my Freedom Soul? I want to be free. They want to be free. So, Why did I take their freedom away? I can't do it... Peace is the only option!'

Lavi thought. Before Nick actually conclude the meeting. Lavi said.

"Peace it is!"

Lavi loud and confidence voice was heard by everyone else. Nick turn around to Lavi.

"What is this Lavi? Why are you becoming indecisive now?"

"Dad. I'm sorry. But It's my Age now! I'm going to bring everyone my way!"

Lavi said with confidence. Nick grit his teeth and slap Lavi across the face. Lavi was unfazed. Everyone was shocked.

"You said this is your age?! With that Indecisiveness?! Lavi! They're the Traitor!"

Lavi look at Nick with determination.

"I know! And I'm not Indecisive! It's called Freedom Dad. I know what Freedom feel like more than anything in the world! Not Even Monster know what Freedom feel like! I am!"

"What do you mean by that?"

Nick asked. Lavi pull his sword out again.

"For what did I draw this sword? For Freedom dad. I was fighting for Freedom. And I kill the Demon Lord for Freedom. Kireno Kingdom split from us because they want Freedom. They achieve that Freedom. But at what cost? They lost the one protector they have. They were taking risk dad. But in the end, That Risk didn't pay off. So, I want to make sure they at least get some benefit from being Free."

Lavi said. His way of thinking is too high up there for someone in the room to understand. Nick sighed and sit back down. He gesture everyone to sit back down.

"Alright then. Dad is sorry that I slap you."

"Do you really? I tell mom you know?"

"Stop it Lavi. I don't want to get smacked by Hailey."

"Well, You're going to get it anyway!"

Lavi smirked. Everyone let out an awkward smile. It seems like Lavi didn't even feel the slap that Nick do to him.

Lavi let it slide because Nick is his parent and he is the Shireno Royal Family. Every rule must be followed.

"Well then. As I said. I will pick my own option. Which is Peace. I will come back with results. If they're not agreeing with us. That's when your plan is going to be used Dad."

"You do you Lavi... As you said... It's going to be your Age soon. Show me result Son! Don't disappoint me!"

"Got it!"

Lavi immediately scream.

"Mom! Dad slap me across the face!"

Nick immediately look at Lavi.

"You little boy..."

"I report it to Mom dad. I hope you're not disappointed. I'm not Indecisive right?"

"Yeah... You're not. Sorry..."

Nick said with a smile. Everyone feel the pressure of Hailey slowly walking to the Conference room. All the nobles suddenly run away from the Room. The Maid shivers and open the door slowly.

"Mom! Dad slap my face!"

Lavi immediately run to Hailey.

"Nick? How many time I told you to not smack Lavi right?"

"H-Hailey... I'm sorry!"

Lavi immediately go out of the Conference room and look at the Maid.

"You lot can go from here. You don't want to see the King getting beaten up by the Queen right?"

Lavi said. The maid smiled awkwardly and nodded. It's almost like they're saying 'But... You're the reason...'

Anyway, Lavi let Hailey handle Nick and also, Let her decipher what Lavi mean to Nick. Now Nick understand what's Lavi trying to do to the world. To be honest, It was surprising seeing a King slapping a Hero across the face even though it's his own son.

Lavi go back to the House and meet up with both Aoi and Zora.

"Yes Master. What can we do for you?"

"You two. Get ready. We're going to go to the Kireno."

"Yes sir!"

Aoi and Zora immediately get ready. Lavi go to the Living room and see all of his Fiancees there.

"So Lavi. Should we go as well?"

Gwen asked. Lavi can't really bring a lot of people to this. He limited it to only 4 People. Meaning that there's one more slot for people.

"I'm really sorry everyone... As much as I want to bring all of you... I can only bring one of you guys... So, can you pick it by yourself?"

Lavi said. Everyone tensed up and they immediately fight among themselves to see who get to have a date with Lavi.

Well, It's a country visit but, It's going to be a date it seems like. And the fight is so fierce. With Bianca and Althea coming to the top. Now it's between the Smartest Human being against Goddess of the world.

And in the end. Bianca show the power of human and win the entire thing. It took so long for them just to play rock paper scissors that it's actually become night.

So they wait until Morning to come. That's how fierce the battle was. 5 AM. Lavi wake up and he pick Bianca up. He take off her clothes and his clothes and go to bath.

"Bianca~ Wake up~"

Lavi gently call her out. Bianca open her eyes and see Lavi Naked. And herself Naked. She saw the ceiling and notices that the ceiling is the Bathroom. Bianca smiled softly like a cat and Lavi slowly put her inside the bath. Lavi put her down on the floor and Bianca immediately lean to Lavi shoulder.

Lavi look at Bianca and he touch her cheeks. He spread it around and play with it. Lavi was so happy and Bianca was closing her eyes expecting a kiss.

But what he get is her cheeks getting played by Lavi. Which is also not so bad for her. They enjoy the bath until 5.30 AM and then they go out. They didn't want to spend too much time on the bath because they need to go to the Kireno right now. Aoi and Zora wake up and they get ready. For now, Aoi is going to be the one who flies. When asked by Bianca the reason why Lavi bring Aoi and Zora and not Nazuna and Gwen.

"It's easier to reach peace with 2 dragons. It's more scarier. Thus, Everyone will cooperate beautifully with us."

Lavi said. He's purely depending on the Dragon form of Aoi and Zora. It would be easier to bring everyone there. But Lavi didn't want to bring too much people there because, Someone need to stay in the country so that they can substitute Lavi in all the meeting because, It's necessary for him to do that now that a lot of things happened.

Which make the Princesses Job really hard because, They didn't know what Lavi train of thought are. So they just listen closely and let the analyst write it and give it to Lavi later! It's simple and working really great.

And The Princesses heard about everything that happened with Lavi the last couple of days. And that just bring them more headache.

Lavi, Bianca, Aoi and Zora arrived at Kireno shortly after. And they're not accepted by that.

"That hair! You must be from Shireno Kingdom! Get out from our country!"

And at that moment. Lavi knew. Peace was never an option with the kingdom like this. And this is also one of the reason why he brought 2 Dragon with him.

Lavi eyes lost it light. Bianca too was disappointed in this development. Guards were circling around them with spear and axe.

"Zora. Report to the Castle. Bloody Shireno is there."

Lavi said. Zora nodded.

"Understood Master. Please be careful."

Zora jumped to the sky and she turn into a black Dragon. She immediately charged to the Castle. Lavi lost all interest on their freedom.

Bianca immediately said.

"Pointing your Weapon to Lavi is forbidden. You just anger the whole world. Now, You must pay the cost."

Bianca said. Lavi silence everyone there and shackles their feet.

"Bianca, Aoi. Let's go."

"Yes Lavi!"

"Yes Master!"

When Lavi eyes still lost it lights. Bianca and Aoi lights come back just from speaking from Lavi. The guards can't move. But as soon as Lavi and the others step away from them. Their neck just fall off.

Everyone run around in panic. Lavi still left the citizens alive. They're innocent so, He doesn't really care. But the Castle is not going to be standing up again after this.

Lavi, Bianca and Aoi walk through the beautiful tropical Island. It's sad that everyone running around in panic. Lavi, Bianca and Aoi reach the Castle Gates.

"Aoi and Bianca. Can you guys wait on the sky?"

"Yes!"

Aoi and Bianca jumped to the sky and fly above the castle. More Guards come in. They're already shooting poisonous arrow to Lavi and shooting Magic to Lavi.

"Felix Shield."

Lavi swing his sword down once and all the Magic and Arrows was deflected toward them. And it kills every guards there. Lavi just push his body to the gate and eventually. The gate bust. Lavi get inside the castle and immediately jump to reach the Throne Room.

In that room, There's a quiet king. He realizes the hair color of Lavi and said.

"Oh my. There's Shireno in here? Kill him!"

He said. His Elites Guards immediately move to Lavi. They're moving in for the kill. But unfortunately for them. The Day where they gain big salaries and be a part of the Royal Family is short. After all, This s**t is not a real Royal Family. They're just a bunch of run away andy.

They jumped and swing their Axes to Lavi. It hit Lavi neck. But it doesn't actually hit. There's an invisible wall protecting Lavi.

Lavi call that Perfect Barrier Control. Usually, Barrier is surrounding him like a ball. But now, His Barrier is perfectly coating Lavi like clothes.

Lavi called it. 'Absolute Barrier.' Nothing can get suddenly attack Lavi now. Because how Barrier work, it's a layer of protection. So anything inside the barrier still able to hit. Resulting if someone is cheeky. They can just explode some magic from inside the barrier and the barrier would mean nothing.

But now. It's impossible to hit Lavi. There's less than a Milimeter between him and the Barrier. Meaning it's impossible to hit Lavi inside or outside the barrier.

The Elite Guards was in pure shock. Lavi ignore them and just walk forward to the King. The king try to move. But can't. Shackled. He tried to scream. He can't. He was silenced.

And then, Something f*****g fell on the roof of the castle. What else if it's not Zora dropping in with Nick.

"See Lavi? Traitor shouldn't be alive."

"Well, It's their fault that they didn't want to be alive."

Lavi said. Nick notices the coldness in Lavi eyes. Technically, It's the first time Nick watch Lavi in action in the field.

And he was ruthless. That's what the demon make him. Ruthless cold blooded killer inside. And yet somehow still warm on the outside.

There's 2 side of Lavi. The Cold, Murdering Machine Lavi. Resulted by his kidnapping incident. Making him lost all of his emotion except Vengeance. And there's The warm, Loving Family Lavi. Resulted by Gwen absolutely working on Lavi health. Making him one of the if not the sweetest person in the world.

And now. What they see is the Murder Machine Lavi. Or better known as the Bloody Shireno. It's really fitting for Lavi because, There's a lot of blood on his coat and his body. All of that is human. The same species as him. The one he want to protect.

But as expected. If things didn't like him. He will be hostile. Nick sat down on Zora and look at Lavi decapitating everyone in the entire castle.

And after he was done. Bianca immediately jumped down. His Fiancees is the keys to Lavi well being. In order to turn Lavi back to the warm. The Girls. Is going to be his fire in the cold.

Lavi notices Bianca and he immediately slow Bianca fall and Bianca hug him. He's still bloody and his mood is already better.

"Goodness Grief Bianca. Let Lavi clean himself before hug okay?"

"Hehe! Sorry Lavi... Bianca want Lavi to turn normal again!"

Lavi clean himself and Bianca and snuggle with Bianca.

"Thank you Bianca. Once again, Lavi was saved by Bianca and the Others."

"It's no big Deal Lavi. Bianca and the others are Lavi protector after all..."

Bianca said calmly. Lavi pick her back up. Aoi fall down on Zora back and she stand back up pretty again. Lavi and Bianca go to Zora back.

"Good job Lavi. We will let the Blue Gryphon take over."

"Oh they're here?"

Lavi asked Nick. Nick nodded.

"Half of Blue Gryphon will take over the Island. They will calm everyone down and they will rebuild the island under Shireno name."

"I see.. That's fine then."

Zora fly back to Shireno. Lavi didn't even need to worries about leaving all the corpses. Since all of them are in the ruins. They will be a natural food for the animals around.

See? Lavi was loving and caring to the Animals. He always giving them a really nice food for them to eat. Though, Lavi did felt a little bad because they have to eat trash.

After riding for 1 hour or so. They arrived back at the Castle. They can't really go that fast because, Nick was so scared so, they take their time going slow and steady.

And after that. He hold meeting with the nobles again. Bianca is there with him. But Aoi and Zora didn't. Lavi give what he found there and it was absolutely bad. No respect whatsoever.

So he just absolutely destroy them and everyone listen to Lavi absolute order. They go out and end the Meeting. Lavi and Bianca wave at Nick and they go around to have their date. After all, Bianca still win the competition. So she get to have 1 Day date with Lavi. And Lavi was looking forward to have date with Bianca.
