Chapter 7 - The gang

We see Zalmuith as he was walking down the long hallway.

The castle was bigger than he once remembered. But he didn't worry much since he knew every door in the castle.

He suddenly stopped as he heard people talking in a room. He leaned his eyes and saw tons of people in a room. He saw 4 people in the room including Ayla.

Standing at the forefront was Rina Gilrora, her elven features highlighted by the soft glow filtering through the room. With porcelain skin, piercing blue eyes, and short strands of light hair framing her delicate features, she emanated an aura of authority befitting her position as the second commander of the Dwarnus army.

Beside her loomed Thebaldus, a towering figure shrouded in darkness. Clad in armor adorned with sinister motifs, his massive frame seemed to absorb the very light around him. A mask concealed his visage, lending an air of mystery to his undead knightly form.

Across from Rina stood Reiko Tsokiri, a figure both formidable and striking. Her ebony skin bore intricate patterns of vitiligo, accentuating her crimson gaze that seemed to pierce through the shadows. Draped in knightly attire, sheathed in the weight of her longsword, she exuded an aura of unyielding determination.

Lastly, amidst the assembly stood Seiki, a figure as enigmatic as he was unsettling. Clad in an elegant black suit that bespoke sophistication, he commanded attention despite his peculiar lack of a head. Where his features should have been, there was only emptiness, yet an aura of intelligence and cunning emanated from his form, defying conventional expectations.

Zalmiuth enters the room, as he opens the door, a little nervous: "H-hell-"

Everyone suddenly bowed leaving Ayla confused.

Zalmiuth, even years was a little nervous about being bowed at, he always felt like it bothered them. "P-please Get up!"

Rina was the first one to speak with her nice and delicate voice "Good morning and Happy birthday Prince Zalmiuth."

Thebaldus with his harsh yet respective tone started speaking as well "We hope you gonna have a wonderful day...Prince Zalmiuth."

He was followed by the energic cat girl "Just like they said! We all here for you prince Zal!"

Zalmiuth turn and saw Seiki, who didn't seem to talk but their were a strange feeling of respect from him "..."

"Ah...Please get up."
