Chereads / The Reincarnation of Matura Hiyato / Chapter 8 - The Capital Esteria (Chapter 8)

Chapter 8 - The Capital Esteria (Chapter 8)

In the morning before we leave to the capital.

I was making sure that i had a backup plan just in case they won't let me go and try to trap me.

I looked at a map of the castle and have found many different ways i could escape if needed.

Now that I know the escape like the back of my hand me Zylion should go to get the battalion.

[Zylion-dono I am ready to go.]

I have prepared many things but there was one thing that i had forgotten about my sword, when I used it before with Claude my hand felt like it was moved and i was told how to win. Like there was a ghost controlling my sword. Well I'll figure it out another time.

[Let's set of to the capital Esteria then.]

[Actually I have to get the battalion with me.]

In case I need help against soldiers there.

[Oh of course. Where exactly are they?]

I guess telling him won't hurt.

[I left them in a forest nearby.]

[In the forest?!! Outside in the forest?!! We should probably go to the capital goblins can't survive in forests alone for more than 2 days.]

[There are 800 of them.]

[Goblins don't work together when they attack they just all attack then all fight each other for the food. If they haven't been killed by other monstors then they surely have killed each other for food.]

Wait since i am Jindra's master i can sense him no matter where he is. So he should be able to do so with the battalion.

[Jindra you are the master of the battalion. Tell me can you sense them?]

[No point they are dead for sure.]

[No I can sense them all of them none of then died.]

[Impossible.]

[By the way these are not just normal goblins they have stayed in The Jindra cave for a long time. So long being in that cave that gives monsters power they have become very strong and intelligent.

They also have full loyalty to Jindra because they are all in a contract with him.]

[Being the master of so many goblins should be impossible shouldn't it Jindra-dono?]

[Well the one who made them contracted to me is the Demon King Acrophitus so i got no trouble.]

[Acrophitus??!!! I knew that a demon king gave it to you but Acrophitus?. I met him before he died.]

[Akimitsu-sama you have met him too??]

[Yes he gave me his powers and skills and also taught me how to use every skill of his before dying.]

[That is why Akimitsu-sama is so powerful.]

[Actually I already had lots of power and the Demon King was just teaching me how to use his powers because I already mastered my own magic by training.]

[Akimitsu-sama, Jindra-dono no one has met the Demon King and survived h... how??!!]

[What do you mean.]

[Anyone that comes near the Demon King instantly dies of the evil aura surrounding him.]

[I did fall unconscious but I woke up after.]

[Yes me too.]

[W....W....Waking up after meeting the Demon King. Amazing!! Akimitsu-sama how long did it take for him to die?]

[A couple of hours.]

[Wait... How did you manage to learn the skills and his powers. in hours??]

[He showed me how and i copied him and it just well just worked.]

[I'm not even suprised anymore. How about i teach you some of my magic spells so that you may use them in the future?]

[That would be fantastic if you could?!!]

The next days he taught me different spells like acid spray, Wormhole, summoning lightning, low level teleportation and a spell that makes your weapon stronger by using the sun's power.

After a week we arrived at the capital city Estaria.

Zylion-dono said we should wear a black cloak because people might recognise Zylion-dono and slow us down from meeting the king.

When we entered the gate we came to a market area. We headed to the castle dead centre in the city.

When we arrived at the castle gates Zylion-dono showed his face to the guards who opened the gate of the castle after seeing him.

Zylion-dono told us to wait outside the door of the throne room where there apparently there is a party going on he goes through and i see that the king is sitting on his throne above everyone else. the king sees that Zylion-dono has entered.

[Your majesty I present Akimitsu-sama The God's Hands and the reincarnation of Jindra-dono.]

We enter as everyone looks suprised.

The king comes down and gets on his knees.

When he does everyone gets on their knees.

I shouldn't stop them or they'll think it's weird.

The king get back up.

[Holy God's hands Akimitsu-sama we could talk in private. Jindra-dono j wanted to apologise for the Royal Knights of that time trying to kill you without proof of betrayal please let us all talk in private but before that. Everyone you are all lords and dukes and ladies and even my son's and daughter are here I order everyone treat Akimitsu-sama the Legendary God's hands as a class higher than even my sons the princes. Akimitsu-sama at the moment is the highest classed person in the Ashwald Kingdom. If anyone causes offence towards his holyness I will personally behead them. The king turns and bows to me again.

Hmm I.. think something big just happened o my god

IM SO Embarrassed.

We then leave to talk in private in a large room with 3 people waiting for us.

[Akimitsu-sama meet my Sons who are prince Edwin and John. Edwin is 7 and John is the heir to my throne and he is 28. They bow as they are announced.

Also meet my daughter princess Charlotte. She looks away she might be shy.

[Nice to meet all of you.]

Crown prince John bows and answers

[It is an honour meeting you Akimitsu-sama.]

prince Edwin shout loudly.

[IT IS AN...AN HONO....HONOUR TO MEET YOUR HOLY.....HOLYNESS!!!]

He is trying to remember his lines?? How adorable.

Princess Charlotte answers softly

[It is an honour to meet you.]

She look at me in the eye we make eye contact and she looks away back to the ground.

His majesty look at Charlotte and smiles in a teasing way he says.

[Charlotte is something wrong?]

[I'm fine father!!]

She realises how loud she shouted.

A maid comes in the room.

[Your majesty Cairus-sama has requested princess Charlotte.]

She looks like she saw a ghost.

[Charlotte you can go.]

She looks like she knew this would happen but still is suprised at the same time.

[Father shouldn't I stay i mean his holyness is here, it would be rude to leave.]

[No we are going to speak about important matters. So you should go.

Cairus-sama has requested you. You shouldn't decline.]

The maid takes princess Charlotte.

but she tries to resist a bit but gives up.

[Your majesty who us this Cairus-sama exactly?]
