South of Laira Village, afternoon.
Lex remained unshaken in front of her without facing her with his back is in front of her, who is a woman with a height of his shoulder. She responded to him.
"Yes, Lex. It's me. Pharaoh Richeolot, at your service".
And she bowed down to Lex that led everyone to surprise. A fairy known for never once bowed down to any creatures as a holy being would bow to a mere master grade adventurer like Lex. And she's continued.
"If master Lira isn't present. He must be on somewhere and busy".
Lex stunned at Pharaoh's loyalty and trust. A woman behind him is Lira's loyal servant who served Lira since she was five years old, having an age as old as Lex, who barely contacted with Lira when they were a kid. She had shown that she knows Lira better than anyone. Not even a guild master, Kiana, or Mari, who understands him well.
Unlike Lex, who is being a lone wolf. Lira has four servants who served him loyally through the Kanshera. However, at many regards of his monster like ability with Darkness Metoria that specialized in acute speed attacks. Lira would still lose against his older brother who is not only excels in the tactical battle, but he has a sturdy body endurance that he would able to fight longer than Lira. Lira may be strong. But his body endurance is not as strong as Lex that makes him able to fight in a short time. His attacks are mostly lethal, but he is not suitable to face a long way battle like what Lex will face. The battle that will involve Seikara Empire as Seikara Empire is the richest resources nation ever in Kanshera that had become Richeolot Clan's source of earning since millennia ago, and Laira Village itself is a nation that is allied with Seikara Empire.
Judging on Pharaoh's optimistic remark to her master, he had no choice but to speak the truth. He doesn't want to make his servant have only motivation on him. But also a motivation for themselves. So Lex spoke it out to her.
"Isis defeated him".
A three simple words that shake her almost instantly. And she asked to him.
"She defeats master Lira? How about Mari? Mari is his strongest servant available now and she is usually clinging with Master Lira if she's coming to Laira Village to pay a visit to him. She must know something about the enemies, am I right?".
She asked Lex in order to a positive reply back, but she wasn't expecting this. Lex replied,
"She's hospitalized alongside with him who fought against Isis together".
The statement that Lex had told her silenced her. Knowing that the strongest man she knew, has been defeated by Isis.
"Master Lex, can I be by Lira's side? I've failed my job, as his servant, if I can't even protect him during this crucial moment."
Pharaoh stood that her sky blue colored hair had shown and spread out of her robe that the robe had covers her body perfectly as she opened her hood, a pointy-eared woman with a cut off horn on left side with petite demonic horn on the right side seen. Who is Pharaoh Richeolot, the woman who doesn't have any relation with Richeolot family but able to own it as she's a servant for Lira as The first and his most trusting servant who Lex could able to depends on when Lira is not being there.
Lex shook his head upon looking back at the woman who has a beauty that radiates from the ruins that making the ruins near the surrounding location look beautiful when she's there. As a fairy princess, she had a strong devotion to Lira to serve him for the rest of her life that let alone taking care to him. She even willing to exchange her life to him just to make sure he's alive and happy.
Looking in Lex's blue eye, who shook his head. Pharaoh had only able to respond in disappointment. She could charge alone to Isis and fight with all of her might to avenge her master, but Lira's report about the condition happened to Laira village had made her drop the idea for that. As she must put her emotion aside for a time being. Until her actual purpose to assist Lex to defeat Titan Lord completed.
"It's fine. Anyway, I've placed the armies as Master Lex and Master Lira instructed at the last week report," she reported to him, bow with respect like a lady who greeted for his master.
"You need not be formal to me. I'm his brother, treat I'm as him too." he replied as he respected her politeness.
"I afraid that I can't, Master Lex. I've devoted my life for Master Lira. But I felt appreciated by you for thinking highly to Pharaoh" She answered him in terms of her being highly regarded by him. But her devotion to Lira is not the thing everyone would break. If everyone betrayed him. Then she would stand on his side that even it means that everyone will take her life.
"I'm appreciating your loyal to Lira. Thank you for the service" Lex raises her up. With her irresistible beauty, no one could ever resist. It needs a lot of nurses to bring the nearby soldier who had their nose bleeding after looking on her.
"You're welcome, Master Lex. But now, I sensed the unusual power at our foot. Beneath the ground." She replied with gratitude for Lex being thinking highly about her. But the power that resembles what Lex sensed last week. Is started to Trembling on their foot that could kill them.
An enormous explosion happened.
And the story continues.
