Chereads / The Fall of Marchioness Fordenn / Chapter 21 - Chapter 20

Chapter 21 - Chapter 20

"We need to rescue our Prince!" A man wearing an armor with blue feathers on his helmet said. "We will not let the Magic Council trample on us!"

"YESSSS!!!" and the soldiers below them roars and continue throwing their shields and swords on the ground, making loud noise in the middle of the night.

"The Magic Council has been underestimating our army from the beginning! We will not let them stomp on us any further! We are the Crown Prince of Eternal's Kingdom army, the vagabond! The vagabond whom the prince save! Now he needs our help, we will do everything to rescue him!" And he raised his hand and that boosted the moral of the soldiers even more. Astonishing.

"WE WILL SAVE OUR PRINCE!" the commander shouted again, and everyone shouted in harmony.

"PRINCE DARIUS!"

"PRINCE DARIUS!"

"PRINCE DARIUS!"

Everyone is cheering and is ready to go to the magic council when the familiar red black aura appeared.

His stance is very formidable. His dirty white hair that covers his one eye, and his built is big like a madman. That man is Costa.

"What do you think you're doing, Kayro?" he then started walking towards the commander. "Why are you inciting a war between the Council and Eternal Kingdom?"

Kayro stand straight and faces Costa. His built is huge too, and his armor looks formidable and impenetrable.

"We will save Prince Darius?" he seriously said. "If you are here to stop us, you need to go now," and he exuded a blazing blue aura that rivals Costa.

The two faced each other, and everyone cheering is now silent.

Costa smirked, "Do you think the Prince need to be save? How absurd," he then throw his cigarette on the ground.

"What?" Kayro's face looks fiercer.

"He does not need the help of weaklings like you," then he throw his cigarette on the floor.

"What did you say?!" the aura rises, and the ground trembled. The plains of plateau had slight crack and that catches the attention of the soldiers far from them. The blue light shone, and bloodlust followed.

"I said you are a weakling, jackass," he smirked and let his aura as well. The two of them were known as the powerful ally of Prince Darius. The leader of the Knights led by him.

Both are faithful to him. But they have their own vision and point of view so it cannot be helped.

"You f*c*er!" Kayron smirked and let the first punched to Costa, where he jumped off to avoid. Then Kayron jumped again to land an attack again in Costa.

"Is that all you can do?" Costa asked in Kayron and smirk. "It's my turn now," He said that made Kayron grinned. It's been a while since they let off some steam because of what's happening.

They remember the time where Prince Darius was captured. They jumped off to stop him but he smiled and said that "Do not stop me. That's an order". They are powerful too, and given the training the three of them doing together, and the experiences they had in the battlefield, they stand a chance.

Costa attack Kayron with his famous hundred punch, where Kayron blocked it off with his ultimate shield.

"Just what is Prince Darius thinking?!" Kayron shouted. "Ain't the Council Prison is too much for him?" because the Magic Prison contains pure energy, that is bad for the mages like Prince Darius. It's ironic, isn't it? That is because of Goddess Rosana.

The Dark Story of the Goddess they worship a lot is just a human who wanted more power. She envision herself an existence above humans, a God. So she created the now called Eternal Empire by stealing magic from other people.

What happens when you steal magic of someone? Their lifespan shortened while the one who took it away get an extension. People who believe in her are lunatics, and will do anything for her.

But it sure is a different story when your heart was taken away. And that's what the hero of the World did, Prolifica.

Prolifica did not like how Rosana proclaimed herself as the Goddess when all she did was to took away the belonging of others. And that is when the Magic Council was created, to give justice and protect humanity. Her pure energy lingers in the Magic Council Castle, and descendants of the Goddess has always been wary of it because it purifies their magic.

"Let's just wait, Kayron," he then landed another punch. "Do not do anything reckless." with that, Costa suddenly dissappeared from sight, and Kayron gritted his teeth.

"Damn, Costa! UGHHHHHHHHHH!" he roars like a beast, and the soldiers stand still. They look at their ferocious commander, and is waiting for orders. Then Kayron dismisses them.

It was a bright sunny day and the Vice Chief of the Magic Council arrived at the palace. He has long green hair and wore a black eyeglass in his left eye. He come down from his magical carriage, and that vanished.

The butler of the Eternal Palace bows, "Greetings, Lord Mackenzey Miller, the Vice Chief of the Magic Council," and the butler remained bowing.

"You may raise your head," he ordered and the butler raises his head.

"His Majesty, King Darvin, and Her Majesty, Queen Nefaria is expecting your presence. They are in the conference hall, if you may, please," and the butler guided him which he reply a nodded.

The butler would like to ask him to rest first but the King and Queen is in rush for some reason. They cannot wait and would like to confine Prince Darius forever in the Council Prison.

His eyes wander around the palace. It is extravagant. Filled with gold ornaments everywhere, and portrait of the royal family from generations ago. His face looked so serious.

Inside the room, there were 20 people excluding the King and Queen in front. The servants guided him to seat in the middle, where everyone can see him. The room is like a small amphitheater where you could fit 50 people inside.

"Greetings to the Sun and Moon of the Empire," he politely bowed. Even though he is the Vice Chief of the Council, he needs to address the Royal properly or they will have excuse to gain a favor from the Council, especially that the Kingdom where he is right now is the one the Goddess founded.

"Raise you head," the King announced and smiled. "Welcome to Eternal Kingdom,"
