Chereads / Regalia : Prince Noir the Eighth / Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

-Back at Tamiel, Noir and Tohya just arrived from Ag Ma La-

Tohya: Whooo boy *impressed* you weren't kidding when you say the fortress city. Looks like something from the Lord of The Ring.

Noir: We'll go straight to the inn. You'll have to live there for awhile until I have settle your settlement.

Tohya: Sorry for the trouble Noir

Noir: *panicked* Shhhhhhh , shhhhhh!!!!!!

Tohya: Oh ya, we're in disguise *laughing awkwardly*

-At a certain inn-

*Noir walks towards the counter*

Noir: hey, can I meet the owner?

worker: hm? yea sure. *calls out to the back* Boss!

*Then a bearded man with muscular body came out*

Noir: Um, Hagbard

Hagbard: *shocked* What are you doing here? Get out! I don't want any trouble you'd bring in by being here

Noir: Hold on, wait wait wait. It's not me, it's for my friend

Hagbard: *Shocked* By his majesty. Repeat what you said boy.

Noir: *confused*.... my... friend?

Hagbard: *laugh loudly that everyone stopped and turn their attention to Hagbard* And where in across Endora did you find that? *suddenly turns serious as he saw Tohya standing behind Noir smiling sheepishly* is that.... I'll be damn boy. Someone actually go over the effort. So what do you want.

Noir: He needs a place to stay.

Hagbard: Again, you can do that anywhere. Heck, he'll be better off in your place than here.

Noir: He's...... not from here.

Hagbard: *Laughing loudly again* You entertain me today boy! Never took you for a funny man.

Noir: I know you could help anyone with anything with the right amount of Opel.

Hagbard: True. But for 'your' trouble. It'll be 5 times the cost then i'll agree.

Noir: Deal

Tohya: Eh seriously???

Hagbard: For how long now?

Noir: As long as it gets to settle his settlement.

Hagbard: Well, in the name of His Majesty, i'm going to be rich hahahahaha!

Noir: I'll bring payment later tonight.

Hagbard: Of course of course. You have earn a privilege to be here boy! But better make sure no one realize you. If they do, you're out. Got that?

Noir: *thumbs up* got it.

*Hagbard then goes back to the back on the inn. It was also a pub*

Tohya: How bout you, where ya stayin?

Noir: I'll go back...

Tohya: Hey, wanna stay here with me?

Noir: I don't want to cause trouble with Hagbard. He helped in the end anyway. You've seen what people here will do if they found out who I am. That's why people are so scared to have anything to do with me *sigh*.

Tohya: By the way. Is there food here? I'm hungry!

Noir: Order up Tohya *smiles*

-Later that evening after they finish eating-

Tohya: You said there were Kinless. But I have yet to see any ever since we're here.

Noir: Tamiel.... is a bit... racist with kinless. The royal and noble here all take pride in being a powerful human.

Tohya: Aaaa, no wonder they despise you. You're like an underdog!

Noir: what's an underdog?

Tohya: Uhhh, like someone weak but became strong? someone representing the little guys, the weak, the minority.

Noir: *beams a smile* representing the weak huh. That has a nice ring to it. But you don't see much weak people here.

Tohya: It's the capital city of course people will be looking their best here. Have you been outside the capital?

Noir: I'm not that keen going all alone to my sibling's land

Tohya: true enough.

Customer from behind: Have you heard? The Red Reaper has it again, now there's a trail of blood in the forest of Cel Da' Mul.

Another customer: Well, I heard his majesty has already made an order to eliminate it and Prince Richard is hunting it down with the Knights. But people say no one ever lived to tell the tale of how the Red Reaper looks like.

Customer from behind: What kind of Kinless you think it is?

Another customer: the Kinless are calling her an absolute monster, evil and monstrous.

Customer from behind: Thank goodness we're here save at Tamiel, far far away from that forest.

*Tohya and Noir was eavesdropping*

Tohya: Uuuuu Noir!

Noir: *Panicked* SHHHH!!! Shhh!!!!

Tohya: *closes his mouth for a bit*.... sorry...

-Outside the restaurant-

Tohya: We should hunt the Red Reaper!

Noir: Huh? Didn't you listen? Absolute monster Tohya, an absolute monster *Imagine a giant dragon coloured in red* .

Tohya: But that Richard guy is your brother right?

Noir: Yea... and?

Tohya: Imagine you caught the Red Reaper before he does. People will be impressed with you and finally respects you!

Noir: But I can't fight. In the end, you're the one fighting.

Tohya: Exactly, and the one defeating the absolute monster is no other than someone serving your highness, Prince Noir the 8th.

Noir: *nose became bigger* I like the sound of that hmph... but *looking worried to Tohya* can you handle something like that?

Tohya: Last time I check, I have invincibility. I might be Superman for heaven sake.

Noir: *smiles* if you're confident then I'm in. But, go take a rest first. You just arrived here remember and this is just your second day.

Tohya: Thanks Noir.

Noir: I'll pick you up tomorrow and we'll head to Cel Da' Mul together in the morning.

Tohya: Yes boss.

-The next day at the forest of Cel Da' Mul-

Tohya: Now that we've walked for hours. I'm starting to think walking aimlessly in a forest is not a good idea.

Noir: I packed food and stuff in case we'll be staying the night.

Tohya: You know what, in anime, the main character would immediately found the monster.

Noir: There must be a lot of wonderful stories back in your world huh?

Tohya: Too many I suppose.

*Suddenly Noir and Tohya were stopped by knights*

Tohya: Whoa whoa *prepares to fight*

Noir: Hold on Tohya!

*Then Richard walks out greeting them two*

Richard: Should I ask why you're here?

Noir: No.

Richard: Very well. *notices Tohya*... who are you boy?

Tohya: Noir's friend *smiles proudly*

*Richard eyes widen in surprise hearing it. The other knights were already laughing*

Richard: Well, everyone knows using Noir to gain status or richness is useless. So I guess you must be his genuine friend. I admire your persistent. Knights!

*The knights then continued marching in search of the Red Reaper*

Richard: There's been a sighting of a monster called Red Reaper here. Out of our way if you don't want to get in harms way. *leaves Tohya and Noir*

Tohya: Is being your friend really that odd?

Noir: Oh, it is if you're from here.

*They searched for the whole day. Even during the night time where Tohya was hoping the torch they bring will caught the Red Reaper's attention*

Tohya: My legs are getting numb!

Noir: Maybe we should take a rest?

Tohya: Yes.....

Noir: By the way, how long do you insist on searching for this Red Reaper?

Tohya: Until we found it!

Noir: seriously? *in disbelief*

-The third day of searching, by the lake-

Tohya: I caught another fish! WAhahahaha!

Noir: You're getting better at fishing. So are we eating the fish or meat today?

Tohya: Let me eat my hard earn catch! hu hu hu

*Tohya and Noir already built a wooden shack by the river for the search. Their supply finish by the end of the second day so they hunt themselves*

-Later that night-

*Tohya was cooking the fish by the campfire*

Noir: *smiles* You know what Tohya

Tohya: Hm?

Noir: I'm really having fun, for the longest time in my life. I finally felt like i'm having fun.

Tohya: *smiles as he saw the earnest in Noir's eyes* glad I'm able to help.

Noir:Back then when the mercenary attacked me. I seriously thought I should end everything at that point. Fighting against the world by myself. It felt hopeless you know. I was so tired of being alone, I just wanted it all to end. No one ever talk to me before you came or even see me as a human. They see me like I'm sort of a garbage to them.

Tohya: You're not, okay.

Noir: You made me feel alive again. Th- *looks pale*

Tohya: Noir?

*Tohya turns around his back and saw a red skinned demonic like figure with black eyes and a single black wing on one of her side*

Tohya: From how Noir looks at you and your skin is red, the infamous Red Reaper?

*When the girl heard Red Reaper, her expression became furious. Noir panicked but he didn't move, he didn't want to leave Tohya alone*

Tohya: Noir get back.

Noir: I'm not living you *said it despite scared stiff*

Tohya: Grateful for the feeling but you might get caught if she does anything.

Noir: You look so calm! Aren't you scared!? They were true, SHE IS AN ABSOLUTE MONSTER!

Red Reaper: SHUT UP!

Tohya: Whoa Noir, you made her mad. Shut up and let me handle it. I've seen Jurassic Park *stares confidently*

Noir: what now?

*Tohya then slowly walks towards the Red Reaper and every time the Red Reaper reacted, Tohya would stop for a moment. Tohya showed both her arm towards the Red Reaper to show he means no harm*

Tohya: (She doesn't attack immediately. She's not some demonic beast. She's humanoid and she has feelings when Noir called her monster. Damn it I hate to admit it but my anime knowledge during my weaboo phase is finally paying of) I mean no harm

Red Reaper: LIAR! YOU'RE ALL SEE ME AS A MONSTER!

Tohya: I don't. You look cute actually

Noir: * Confused* Cute!?

Red Reaper: I don't know what cute means! Beside. I won't get betrayed by you humans anymore.

Tohya: *stops* be...trayed?

Red Reaper: You all call me a monster! Now I'll be one! JUST LIKE YOU SAY!

Tohya: You've.... been on the run ever since?

Red Reaper: .......... *her face soften* .... What is it to you?

Tohya: They killed your family?

Red Reaper: I never knew my family...

Tohya: Everyone treated you like a monster... Its true they will be scared if they see something they've just seen. Noir said himself, humans are racist in nature in Tamiel, and the type to look down on other beings. Of course they would be scared of you. You've been hunted and ran away from from the moment you open your eyes don't you?

Red Reaper: *Shocked*

Tohya: My name is Tohya and this is Noir. We mean no harm!

Red Reaper: How do you know? *voice started to soften*

Noir: Tohya?

Tohya: You're an outcast just like Noir. You overheard what he said just now didn't you? that's why you approached us but you became hostile when he called you monster. You're lonely like him…

Red Reaper: Mm *nods as she was crying*

Noir: *shocked* huh? but... you're suppose-

Tohya: They judged her just like you. Not giving her any chance to explain herself in the first place. Probably she just wanted to ask someone else who she was.

Red Reaper: Yes! *cries* I don't understand! I've done nothing but you all called me monster! You attacked me when I haven't done anything yet! I got chased out just because of how I look!

Noir: ......

Tohya: We're not like them.

Red Reaper: How can I trust you?... *glares at Tohya* last time I trusted someone, they try to kill me.

Tohya: Hit me! I will not run away or fight back!

Red Reaper: huh?

Noir: Tohya!?

Tohya: I will not get angry either. I know you have history but you are meant to be with us!

Red Reaper: With- *Surprised*

Noir: Us!? *Dumbstruck*

Tohya: Both you and Noir are lonely outcast wanting a family. We meeting together like this. Don't you get it? Red Reaper! You're the HEROINE!

Red Reaper: I... don't understand

Noir: Neither do I!

Tohya: *smiles in confident* (hmph, I have invincibility so getting hit to gain her trust is basically the easy way*

Red Reaper:.......................... fine.

Noir: Huh *stares at the Red Reaper then stares at Tohya* Are you sure!?

Tohya: I'll show you, you can trust us. Red Reaper!!!

*The Red Reaper dashed so fast that a violent shock wave was sent from her feet and she arrived in front of Tohya in seconds. She then punch Tohya so hard it sent him flying to the tree behind him, almost breaking it into two*

Red Reaper: ah- *realize she went to far*

Noir: Tohya! *runs to Tohya* hey you okay!?

*Tohya fainter with his eyes all white*

Red Reaper: Did I..... *started to shiver* killed him?

Noir: *checks on his breathing* no, he just fainted.

Red Reaper: *Took a step back* (he really didn't dodge it)

Noir: *glares at the Red Reaper* hey-

Red Reaper: *flinched* (he's mad that I knock out his friend) *prepares to run*

Noir: Tell me everything about yourself.

Red Reaper: *surprised* huh?

Noir: Tohya trusted you. In a world where nobody even want to see me let alone talk to me, Tohya accepted me. My first friend, my only friend and my only ally.

Red Reaper: .......

Noir: I am scared of you. Truly. I don't understand how Tohya is not afraid of you, let alone call you cute. But from what Tohya said, You're as lonely as me and if it's true, that loneliness would be something far scarier than you!

Red Reaper: *tears fell down*..... You want to hear it?

Noir: *smiles softly* yes.

-The next day-

Tohya: *slowly gains consciousness* huh... *tries to move his body* Agh *try to hold the pain in his stomach* It hurts!

Noir: Tohya! You woke up! *Runs to Tohya* Slowly. It's a wonder you're still alive after that attack.

Tohya: *Stares dumbfounded * ..... (I thought I was invincible?).... *sweating alot* (I might actually lose my second life just like that!) *became pale*

Noir: Tohya, hey you alright? Tohya?

Tohya: *Realized something* The Red Reaper!?

Noir: Still sleeping. *Shows Tohya where the Red Reaper sleeps*

Tohya: *smiles gently* Doesn't seem like a monster now is she?

Noir: I guess not. *smiles* I still don't know how you see that cute though?

Tohya: From my world Noir, there's a lot of shit going on. Bestiality or monster girl is pretty cute if they have emotion. Especially if they're humanoid and have a gender. I mean look at her body? She got a body of a girl?

Noir: Body of a..... you... want to mate with her? *confused*

Tohya: H-huh? what no!? what the hell Noir.

Noir: anyway. You're right.

Tohya: About what?

Noir: She is lonely. *looks at her with full pity* She probably has it the hardest among us three.

Tohya: With your history, i'm surprise you'd say someone suffer worst than yours. It must've been something.

Noir: It is. You want me to tell ya?

Tohya: I'm good. If she want to tell me herself, she'll tell. What'cha doin anyway?

Noir: Breakfast. She was crying the whole time she tell me her side of the story.

Tohya: Do you want to make her your ally?

Noir: Ally?

Tohya: You got me already? Adding another outcast to the team won't be that much of a different would it.

Noir: huh, a team of outcast huh?

Tohya: Indeed we are.

-Later that morning, the Red Reaper was woken up from the smell of food-

Red Reaper: food.... *just fully woke up then was on alert afraid she was in a trap*..... nothing.... happen?

*The Red Reaper then walks out of the shack and saw Tohya and Noir preparing breakfast*

Tohya: You really sent me to sleep there.

Red Reaper: *blushes* I ah... I am... sorry.....

Noir:..... *whisper to Tohya* Just so you know, I explain for an whole hour what cute means.

Tohya: *blushing* You what!?

Noir: I even have to teach her what she feeling is embarrassment. She doesn't know much. Similar to a new born. But at least she knows basic vocabulary.

Tohya: Amnesia?

*The Red Reaper sat next to Noir, right infront of Tohya fidgetly*

Tohya: Don't blush! With your red skin, it's really obvious you're embarrassed!

Red Reaper: Yes I am!

Tohya: *closes his eyes in embarrassment* Now you're making me embarrassed!

Noir: *laughing happily*

Tohya: Why are you laughing???

*The three of them then eats breakfast together after everyone calmed down*

Tohya: So I was thinking, do you want to come with us?

Red Reaper: huh? *caught off guard*

Tohya: You got no where to go do you?

Red Reaper: *nods fidgety* mm...

Noir: But we have to be in disguise. Don't get me wrong, I'm usually in disguise myself, hiding from the others.

Red Reaper: Because everyone hates you as well?

Noir: *pain in the chest* Yes... as well...

Abaddon: My name is Abaddon

*Noir and Tohya had their attention to Abaddon who looks resolved*

Abaddon: That's the only thing I remember ever since I woke up here.

Noir: Abaddon....

Tohya: Then Abby it is!

Abaddon & Noir: Abby?

Tohya: Don't you feel more special if you have a special name yourself? Abby?

Abby: Special.... *smiles happily* yeah, I want that. Call me Abby then.

*Noir and Tohya can't help but to smile when they saw how happy Abby was with such simple things. One thing for certain to Noir and Tohya is that Abby is innocent*

Tohya: We were suppose to hunt you in the first place

Abby: *looking scared* What!?

Noir: I guess the plan is ruined?

Tohya: Yeah. Back to the inn?

Abby: You're... not here to catch me?

Noir: Not anymore. Don't worry Abby. We're allies now.

Abby: Ally?

Tohya: Friends!

Abby: friends? *said in a happy tone*

Tohya: (she's more and more like a puppy now) oh, maybe we could sneak her inside the inn or something?

Noir: That would do. If anyone sees Abby, they would seriously tell the King. Let's head back. Lets find some clothes to hide Abby.

Tohya: We're finally go back?

Noir: yeah. Want to go back home with us Abby?

Abby: *nods happily * Mm!

-Near the border of Cel Da' Mul-

*The three of them had to walk since the horse ran away right after they saw Abby*

Tohya: so.... tired.

Abby: I'm sorry....

Tohya: It's not your fault don't worry don't worry.

*Noir suddenly stopped*

Tohya: Noir?

*Abby and Tohya then saw in front of them there's a checkpoint with a number of Knights stationed*

Tohya:Shit, let's run

*Noir nods in response*

Voice from behind: So there's three of you now?

*Noir became pale as he heard the voice. It was non other than his brother's. Tohya slowly turns around to negotiate*

Tohya: My, my your highness Prince Richard. What are you doing here on this lovely day?

Richard: My brother's friend *nods in respond* , we're still in search of the Red Reaper.

*Abby flinched as she heard her title was mention and Richard realized it. *

Richard: And who is this.... other companion?

Noir: She's also a f-

*Richard suddenly reached out to Abby's cloak then pulls it away. Abby panicked but she didn't do anything. The other Knights nearby notices and rushes to Richard. Richard looked furious. Unlike his cool and calm self usually, he looks nothing like what he was before and this scared Noir very much*

Tohya: Wait your highness, let me explain!

Richard: I heard stories about you. When I heard how they portrayed you, I didn't believe them. When I was a young boy, I always got nightmares from a red skinned demonic girl with a one winged wing with eyes darker than any nights. Every.... night... And now, I finally saw you in reality

Abby: *Feeling scared*

Richard: I can't help it to think that, that nightmare is a sign that I should eliminate you, ONCE AND FOR ALL!

*Tohya Stands in front of Abby*

Tohya: Don't touch her! *glares at Richard*

Richard: Ho? You are protecting this monstrosity?

Tohya: You judge her by her looks only when in truth she is just a sweet innocent girl!

Richard: *laughing hysterically* First you befriend with my brother and now you're protecting that demon!? You're not just stupid! You're crazy!

Noir: Brother! wait!

Richard: Move aside if you don't want to get involve Noir. This is the only mercy you get from me. And you, step aside or I will treat you as enemy as well.

Tohya: I won't.

Abby: Tohya.... *looking worried*

Noir: Tohya! Abby!

Tohya: Noir get back.

Noir: But!

Tohya: No matter what. Don't do anything rash. Promise me Noir.

Noir: Tohya!

* Richard then summon his sword from thin air. His sword is called EXAC and among his siblings, he is one of the strongest. His LINK enables him to summon EXAC and when he wields EXAC, He's stats increases drastically, his agility, reaction, speed, strength, defense and focus. Not only that, while wielding EXAC, he is nearly invincible*

Richard: You had your chance. *Richard instantly in a second appeared in front of Tohya*

Tohya: *surprised* (He's as fast as Abby!)

*Richard swings EXAC side way and sent Tohya to the side, flying*

Abby: Tohya!!

Richard: Worried about yourself *Glares Abby with murderous intent*

Abby: GET AWAY!

*Abby's demonic aura burst away towards Richard as Abby points his hands towards Richard. Richard didn't flinched. Richard jumps elegantly, avoiding the attack. As Richard in mid air, Richard swings his swords towards Abby and a gust of white energy wave was fired towards Abby. Abby in instant swings her right arms in desperate creating a similar energy wave but is in dark red crimson coloured instead. The two attacks clashes together creating a violent explosion of holy and demonic powers*

Noir: Becareful!

Tohya: * Run towards Richard* AAAAAA!!! ( Damn it! I still don't know what my power is but I need to save Abby! )

*Tohya was then got tied chains which holds him in place*

Tohya: Where this this came from!?

Gilbrat: Right hand knight of Richard, Gilbrat, at your service.

Tohya: Shit ( It's Richard's personal Knight!)

*As the explosion cleared off, It was seen that Richard was choking Abby to the air*

Tohya: ABBY!

Noir: Abby! Run away! Just use your power to run away! If you stay any longer you'll DIE!!! *screaming out of his lungs out*

Abby: I..... I can't

*Hearing it made Noir and Tohya Surprise. Noir knew how strong Abby is. Abby told her how she could destroy everything around her if she wanted to*

Abby: If I did..... * tried to look at Noir * I'll.... hurt.... my friends.... *smiles painfully*

Noir: ABBY!!! *tears falling down*

Tohya: LET!!!! * Remembers her sister, Kira's dead face* HERRR!!!!! *Remember her mother's dead face* GOOOO!!!!!!

*Tohya's body was shining. Tohya push aside Gilbrat's chain which was holding him down making the trees that has the chain coiled up to hold Tohya breaks, all 6 of the trees*

Gilbrat: This one has a LINK.

Tohya: HAAAAAA!!!!!!!! *looking fierce and aiming for Richard*

Gilbrat: No you don't!

*Gilbrat has a LINK to summon an indestructible chains. Gilbrat tried to tie down Tohya and pulls him of but as the chain caught Tohya's hand, Tohya simply pulls it away sending Gilbrat flying. Tohya then continue to chase Richard*

Richard: *throws Abby to the side* Don't think I can't put you down!

*Richard uses EXAC to create a wave like attack to Tohya but Tohya simply blocks it by shoving it to the side*

Richard: What!?

*As Tohya was close to Richard, Tohya was preparing to punch Richard's face. Richard reacted faster and prepares to strike Tohya's head. He intent to knock him out only but things has escalated to him and he ends up deciding to put an end to Tohya's life as well. As he swings EXAC to Tohya's neck, the sword simply stopped and unable to even put a cut on Tohya's neck*

Richard: What kind of LINK do you ha- *Getting punched by Tohya* GAAAHHH!!!!!!

Tohya: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Send Richard flying but one of the Knight caught Richard safely*

Tohya: Abby! *holds Abby's body on the ground as she was in pain* keep it together Abby!

Abby: What... does that mean? *smiles painfully*

Tohya: *smiles sadly* I'll teach you what it meant later.

Noir: you guys okay!?

Tohya: Yeah!

Noir: *looking pale* but.... *on his knees*

Tohya: Noir? * looks behind him and saw King Midas staring at them* who.... is that?

*Richard who came to realize after getting hit kneel down immediately as he saw his father*

Richard: Your majesty!

Tohya: It's the king!? *Hold Abby's body tight closer to him*

Leia: Richard are you alright? *notices Noir* Noir! There you are! You went missing after all these days.

Noir: What are you-

*Then all of the crown candidates shows up one by one*

Cedric: You got beaten up to a pulp *Laughing hardly*

Richard: Shut up. Your majesty, the Red Reaper.

*All of the other crown candidates were either scared or disgust*

Leia: What are you doing here Noir?

Noir: I...

Richard: He was trying to help the Red Reaper escape and now his 'friend' is also protecting it. *stood up* It was my fault for holding back in the first place. *Richards body the gives of a violent aura as he releases most of EXAC power* Now, I'll kill you seriously!

William: Wow, Richard is really pissed.

Veno: Well even if they want to fight back. I don't think they could stand a chance with all the crown prince and princess here.

Belle: Well, with his majesty here, he would be enough as well.

Tohya: (he's true... I can still handle one of them. But all of them? And I haven't gotten the full grasp of my power yet).... *looks at Abby apologetically* I'm sorry Abby.

Abby: Tohya....it's okay *smiled in defeat*

Tohya: At least, I was able to die protecting.

Abby: *Eyes widen* Tohya? what're you saying.

*Tohya releases Abby and gently lay her back to the ground. He then stands up facing all the Crown candidates*

Tohya: *Shouting* I'll protect her EVEN IF I DIE TRYING!

Noir: Tohya!

Abby: You don't have to!

Tohya: In my first life, everyone I protect dies. I see them go one by one. Well not anymore! *Tohya runs of towards Richard who was already walking towards him*

Cedric: A fight? *laughing* count me in!

Leia: STOP IT!

*Leia quickly shouted as Noir suddenly stood in between Tohya and Richard*

Richard: Move aside! What do you gain from protecting those two!?

Noir:....... *closes his eyes while facing to the sky*

Richard: I'll force you out of the way then! *getting angry*

Tohya: Noir just run! It's okay! Save yourself!

Noir: Your majesty! *finally opens his eyes*

*Richard then stopped in return*

Noir: I wish to ask for my authority now!

*The other crown candidates were surprise including Richard*

William: what are you saying? The court meeting finishes without you.

Noir: If i'm not mistaken, today haven't finish yet and you gave us a week.

Richard: How dare you demand anything from his majesty!

Midas: Speak.

Richard: *in shock* wha!?

Noir: With my authority. I want to have the power to choose anyone or anything to be the rightful people of Endora!

*Everyone there, the crown candidates, the knights, Tohya and even Midas was surprised*

Noir: If you even allow your own child to disown himself and your other child be able to kill anyone without punishment, this won't be much to as is it?

Midas: *smiles in excitement* Granted!

Leia: Y-your Majesty?

Richard: S-so what!?

*Noir then walks towards Tohya, holds his hand then have them walks towards Abby together. Noir then on his knees in front of Abby where Tohya just followed as well*

Tohya: What're you doing?

Noir: I'm sorry I wasn't able to protect you immediately. I don't know how to fight or anything. But, this is the only way I can protect you. Abaddon and Tohya, I hereby ask you two, would you accept my humble request on being my Hand Knights?

*Again everyone was surprised*

William: You can't just make anyone a hand knights!?

Noir: Why can't I? as of right now, I decree both of them as the rightful people of Endora!

Leia: So that's why

Noir: Will you accept?

Tohya: *smiles* Yes your highness! You're smart after all *laughing*

Noir: Abby?

Abby: *crying* yes.... let me be you ally as well!

Richard: That doesn't change anything! I am still going to eliminate that demon!

Noir: * stood up furiously* And you call yourself a crown prince! Your action speaks to the people of Endora itself. They are not only my Right and Left hand knight, you are trying to kill them in front of me their lord in my own land!

Richard: You- *shock*

Noir: Need I remind you, all of Cel Da' Mul is my property and now you are trespassing brother! *glared at Richard*

Richard: Krh-

Jill: He is kinda right you. Just saying.

*Everyone was even more surprise as they saw Midas laughing*

Veno: His majesty....

Leia: Is laughing?

Midas: You are looking more like a proper King then the rest at this very moment, Noir!

Noir: *eyes sparkles while in surprise* huh?
