During the banquet we were received by the King and his family with the Knight Chief walking closely behind. We were first introduced to each other, Relysia the Queen, Tara the senior most Princess and the Knight Chief. The Knight Chief possesses quite an Aura, no wonder she is called as the strongest. This Kingdom is the boiling pot of a lot of cultures where all the races can live freely and enjoy their lives. The Queen looked at us in a similar fashion as the Duke's Wife but showed surprise, it looks like they can't figure out my strength anymore. Tara greeted us as well and showed her interest in how we train in order to be so strong. We told her that we can show her later. We then began eating the lavish spread in front of us while talking amongst us about various things from our journey through the dungeons to something which I have never heard about.
What i was told next is that both of them, The King, and The Duke were in a party together with my Father who had been out for his Trial at that time, my Mother with the Queen, and the Duke's wife too, so it was a 6 people party of some of the highest ranking people in the Country. They also had the Guild Master of the Royal Capital was part of their party for a while before it was disbanded. They had become an A-Rank team by then and were known quite well. He said that the Duke wanted to come as well but he has some work he needs to tend to and will come tomorrow. They were quite close with each other it seems and they knew and liked my parents. They were also called as Dragon Slayers because they had slayed an Earth Dragon back in the day with only 7 people.
The King, Edward Dracrys possessed a certain corp's which have some of the greatest power in the Kingdom and during the Banquet he asked us if we would like to join and gave us quite favourable conditions with only one restriction of to be use to him if he ever needs it. Although it would be alright for me to accept it, I don't want to be tied down by various aspects nevertheless because this is my home country obviously I will fight to protect it if there arises the need to. While Abberon is here just till we find a way to defeat the DevilKin and rescue her people. So we rejected that offer, the King seemed a little sad but it appears he wasn't surprised. The Knight Chief though was staring at us with a Jiiiiii, so I also looked at her and asked her if she wanted to ask something, she took to the opportunity and asked if in a fight would we win against her. So I analysed her and told her the answer, it didn't seem like she was surprised and was expecting it. She sighed and said that "Two kids have become stronger than me, have i become too complacent."
Although she said that, she didn't look sad at all but was giggling. "After tomorrow's match I want to fight you too" she said while laughing, she might have been lonely because she was too strong. I replied by "Sure, let us have a match." She is probably not much of a talker but she speaks with her weapons.
We keep talking and hear about their exploits with my parent's which Abberon was unexpectedly interested in. We discuss about tomorrow's match, while unbeknownst to us behind our backs darkness creeps in.
************DevilKin side**************
"We were supposed to win and kill their fighting force, but why are we being the ones who are dying? They killed two of our 8th-Circle experts and two 7th circle experts while we were just sitting ducks "
"I don't know how they possess such strength but they clearly have something against us. We were the ones who proposed that killing was allowed because we could show our strengths and defeat them from the inside out, while our army will attack from the outside tomorrow after the winning ceremony where we will assassinate their king."
"Call Njowark and tell him to consume this, if he does his power will increase to twice its strength and tell him to only do it when it is needed because he will face massive internal bleeding due to the overload of sudden power gain. We must kill them tomorrow by any means and wait for our reinforcements to arrive."
"We can kidnap the daughter of the Duke to have them at our knees."
"Do that, but just before the match and send them a little souvenir"

"And that is what they have been planning" Un-Chan displayed me the occurring of behind closed doors at the DeviKin's place. It appears that they are planning on taking on this country under their rule as well. Well we can't let that happen, now could we. I open a gate to Sera's room and place a barrier on her so any attack below the amount of Mana I possess, attacks won't work. I also use a magic to inform the Duke about it to be careful in case of an attack. I place a barrier on the house so if any DevilKin even comes near everyone will know. I also contact the Knight Chief to take care of the Royalty.
Within minutes the Royal Castle and the Duke's House were readied to take care of any problem, I also cast my barrier on the Royal Family just to be safe I also cast it on the Knight Chief as well.
After which me and Abberon go into my whopping 50:1 barrier where 50 minutes is 1 minute in real life, we have 7 hours till we need to get ready to leave. Me and Abberon enter in order to achieve enough strength to defeat even a 9th Circle Master if the DevilKin Chief attacks us as well.
