The Ancients World Chapter 219

{I wanted to let everyone know that I have a p-a-t-r-e-o-n with two new exclusive stories on it. One is The Aeternus Universe, and the other is a new story with a basketball system. I hope you guys will give it a chance. The link is https://www.p-a-t-r-e-o-n.com/easyread. Remove the dashes. Webnovel censors the word.}
I push open the door, and there are many maids and butlers in the room. Amelia turns her head towards us and waves us over. Sally and I both walk over and sit down in one of the several seats. Jackson continues to drink from his teacup, and Amelia looks at me. She looks happy and not stressed anymore from the challenges of the poor. "Are you planning to leave right after the wedding? I'd like it if you stuck around longer this time. That only gives me a day with you." Since the wedding is tomorrow, Amelia wants to spend as much time as she can with me.
Sally and I have revenge to get. She has been patient enough, and I won't have her wait for any longer after the wedding. She has helped me so much and provided something I didn't know I needed. It's her turn to get what she wants, and what she wants is revenge against the men who made her life hell. "We aren't going to be staying for any more time after the wedding. We already have so much to do, and I want to get started on it right away." Amelia looks down, a little disappointed. This is the second time we have seen each other.
The only other times we communicate was when we used letters, and I don't check those often enough. It hurt her a lot by not responding or checking, but showing up here and hanging out for today and tomorrow will make up for some of it. "What do you think about the new way The Pope for the church is being selected? I'm sure you're interested die to your connection with it." Jackson asks me a question I haven't really put a lot of thought into. I don't really care who becomes Pope. It's not going to stop me from doing what I want.
The church knows better by now than to bother me the way it has, and if it hasn't learned. I'll make sure they due. I see the same head maid from earlier standing at one of the butler's sides. She has a calm expression, and many are waiting for my response. "What the church does isn't a concern of mine, Jackson. I've never wanted anything to do with them, and that'll never change. More and more things are happening that stem from the church." We all hear a light bang, and I see the head maid quickly recompose herself before Amelia or Jackson turns to see.

She must be a huge supporter of the church, and me saying that must have hurt her image of me more. "I figured you'd say as much. The concerns of the mortals do not bind you. You are free to do what you wish when you wish. For example, killing a king's court. While Bellvia was a horrid place, many are extremely concerned by your actions. Many rulers are worried that the same will happen to them." I only did what I did so I could get what I needed in Bellvia. I'm not going to do that anywhere else unless the situation calls for it.
The head maid comes with another pot of tea and pours some for Jackson, and Sally also gets a cup. I look at her. Her facial expression hides her feeling well, but I can tell she is mad. "While the concerns of the people do not hold me to anything, all the problems in the world are caused because of humans. It's not my job to fix all the mistakes that have been made just because I'm who I am." I see the maids head turn towards me ever so slightly. She quickly stops and finishes what she's doing. She walks over and stands next to the butler again.
Amelia looks at me with sadness, and while I don't like causing her sadness. This needs to be said. She sees me looking at her. "I know your stance on things. I want you to keep an open mind. You can save a lot of people if you do one small thing. Sometimes, that one small thing can be impossible for a human. You have gotten so much stronger since the last I saw you. You have more power than any mortal could ever dream." Amelia speaks the truth, but my life is my own. It's not going to be determined by the people who are suffering because of others.
I lean back in my chair and sigh. Talking about politics and what I should and shouldn't do is really not something that I like to do. I pinch the bridge of my nose and try to ease the pressure in my nose and head. Everything is going perfectly for me, and my loved ones. Yet, I feel as though a great doom is heading our way. After were done getting Sally's revenge, I have several tier-up quests to do. I have two right now, but by the end of Sally's quest, I'll probably be over level 200. Making the tier-up quest count three.

The Kingdom of Avalon is the next step on the journey after Sally and I are done. "So what time is your wedding Jackson? I'd like to know at what time I need to be prepared." He smiles and explains the wedding starts earlier morning and will end in the late evening. So it's going to be an all-day event. I look over to Sally and smile. "Don't wear heels. It's going to be a very long day." She mods her head in agreement. I don't know what Sally thinks about heels, but by our fast, she agreed she must not like them all that much.
Jackson stands up and says his goodbyes. It's still morning, and I bet Amelia would love to take us on a tour of the city and all its changes so far. "We have all day to do what you want, so make it count." I direct my voice at Amelia, and I watch a huge smile spread across her face. She quickly stands up and barks orders in excitement to the butlers to get a carriage ready. Sally and I sit quietly as she takes her time and does this. I turn my head and look at Sally. "I'm sure she is going to buy us things, so be ready to pick things out." Sally gives a nervous chuckle.
While I don't mind being spoiled, it really is weird to be spoiled at my age. "I wonder what kind of exclusive things Zenith sells. I heard it was a rough capital city before the war broke out for it, and once Jackson took over, things have never been better." She has an excellent memory. I stand up and hold out my hand to her. She grabs it, and I help her up. Amelia turns at the door and waved for us to follow, full of excitement. "Your mom is one of the most energetic people I have ever met..." It's going to be a long story to explain my real mom to her. That's a conversation and a thought for another time. I pull up my quest regarding Sally as we walk to the carriage.
[Sally's Past]
[Description: Help Sally in her quest for vengeance against all the men that tortured and sexually assaulted her growing up. Help her punish the Elven Kingdom for their ways.]
[Objective 1: When the time comes, Sally will ask you for your direct help in this matter.][Completed]
[Objective 2: Once everything is done with your quest involving the Dryads, ask Sally what the first step in her revenge is.][Completed]
[Objective 3: Head to the Barony of James in the kingdom of Pleer][In progress]
[Rewards: Unknown]
[Difficulty: Legendary]
[Note: The great difficulty of this quest is the goals that Sally has set in revenge. If they weren't so great, then the difficulty wouldn't be so high.]
I should ask Jackson or nobles at the wedding if they know anything about Baron James and the Kingdom of Pleer. I have many things coming up, and new information regarding them would be excellent. I'm sure Sally is full of information, but I don't want to ask her anything that would cause memories of pain to surface. I look ahead and see massive doors that are being held open and carriage waiting, guess it's time to have so fun with Amelia. She has been waiting so long for me to show up and hang out. In the end, I kept my promise to come and see her. That makes me feel better on the inside.
We walk up to the carriages and take a seat. Soon they start moving and I look out the window to see we are heading for Zenith.

Journeys in the Fairworld: The Gatekeeper
Lindsey Fluger was only slightly past eighteen. There was nothing particularly special about her, save that she happened to be the right person at the right time. When Lindsey is asked to join an expedition to another world she makes the mistake of saying yes, plunging herself into a sea of perilous adventure and dark intrigue.
