《Reincarnated Hero Kills The Summoner》Chapter 16 – Strongest Kingsguard in Existence
Advertisement
The next day Glaze met the Princess in the King's castle, she threw a magical pouch at him, as he looked into it he saw 100 Billion Gold coins, "Fufu, is this enough?" she said smiling towards Glaze's shocked face.
"Yeah, definitely enough." said Glaze shocked at how easy this thing turned out to be, "You said someone wanted to meet me ?" he asked while still inspecting the 100 Billion Gold.
"Hm, the Captelli Family sent one of their women , Marzia Captelli to act as your aide , helping you in any administrative work or any task you have that doesn't need strength, the current Prime Minister of this Kingdom is Marco Captelli , he is the Head of the Captelli family" said the Princess twirling her blond hair with a finger.
"Marzia Captelli? wasn't she the one they sent asking for a hand in marriage? Now they are sending her as my secretary?" asked Glaze curiously.
"Yes, the Captelli family isn't strong in strength but are very smart and cunning , their skills are communication and leadership , they have been the Administrative heads of this Kingdom holding the Position of the Prime Minister for a very long time , they have political connections everywhere and are the masters of politics , that girl they are sending is also not bad , they probably want to have some member of their family with the Hero and in extension with me after what happened I guess , to maintain a connection."
"She probably wasn't considered talented enough for administrative work in the Kingdom so she was sent as a marriage candidate in the first place , now I guess they are just trying to get rid of her" said she with a calculative look.
"In that case , she can be useful to us if we can bring her on our side, turn her against the current Prime Minister " said Glaze as he recently found out the current Prime Minister was quite close to the King and would become a problem in the future when it was time to take the King down.
"Your highness, Lady Marzia Captelli is here," said one of the guards outside our quarters.
"Let her in," said the Princess
As the doors opened, a woman with long brown hair walked in, she was wearing long yellow robes with brown highlights that touched the ground with brown heels clacking with her every step , she had a monocle that was floating in the air with strange runes in front of her left eye and she had a scholarly aura around her.

There were 10 guards behind her, all of them being Level 10.
She bowed slightly as she entered and said" Your highness, Lord Lockhart, I hope you are doing well"
"You too, Lady Marzia, what brings you here ?" asked Glaze
"As you might have heard, I have come to serve as your aide, helping you handle your political and administrative matters so you can focus on becoming stronger and more important things, I would be honored to be by your side" said she as she bowed once more, "One more thing, these are some guards sent by the Prime Minister , they might come in handy for you"
"If you would be willing to work for me I would be most grateful, Marzia," said Glaze as he put his hand forwards.
Marzia shook his hands, being relieved, she did not want to go back to her family being rejected again.
---
Name - Marzia Captelli
Level - 14 Novice
Talent - Leadership, Administration, Illusion Magic
---
Illusion Magic? thought Glaze with a smile, so she does have some talent for magic, that would be useful.
"Marzia, my palace was built recently, and I have some slaves that I got recently currently staying there, I want to turn them into my subordinates, I need to get armor and clothing made for them, and some basic equipment for a place to work for them," said Glaze looking towards Marzia
"Also, you can create an administrative division and a logistic division and any other supporting divisions that would help you in your work, I also need a trainer for training them for information gathering work, I don't care about the price I need the best you can find, pick any place you want, hire anyone you deem fit, and get this thing going as fast as possible , don't worry about money , I need the best , just let me know how much you need"
She appeared a little shook at such a demand, "Uh, getting armors and clothing at Level 15 and basic equipment for 20 people would cost 1 Million Gold, creating an administrative and logistics division and an information gathering expert trainer, that would cost a huge amount of money as talent is rare and the training and equipment for all these people would also be very expensive" said she looking uncertain, not wanting to mess up her first job.
"How much do you need? I have no problem if you hire within your family" said Glaze as held the pouch in his hands.

"100 Million Gold," she said as she gulped, not knowing what he was gonna say , she had work experience and knew quoting price was the hardest part of her job as most people don't realize how much things cost at a scale and thus she was worried this ruthless hero was gonna flip out.
Glaze, on the other hand, raised an eyebrow, 100 Million? that's it? To build all these things and hire so many talents? With a hundred billion in his hand he felt like he traveled back to his previous life.
Princess Charlotte on the side was struggling to control her laughter seeing this scene as Marzia misunderstood all of Glaze's reactions.
As Marzia looked down waiting for an eruption, Glaze threw a pouch towards her, " Is this enough?" he asked as he looked at her.
She took a look inside and her mouth hung, it was 1 Billion Gold, even she had never seen such wealth before in her life, her hands were shaking as she spoke " T-This is too much my Lord, I just need 100 Million"
"You can keep this with you, I trust you would make good use of it to help me handle all my tasks" said Glaze as he looked in her eyes with a cold smile , Marzia seeing those eyes felt a chill, of course, no one would betray the Hero's trust seeing the Aquilia family's example.
She gulped and bowed as she said" I'll get to work then, I will let you know when I am done" and walked out of the room.
The 10 Guards remained in the palace, as Glaze walked towards them he released a bit of Destruction God's Intimidation, the guards were scared as they looked at this ruthless hero, as he looked into their eyes he asked "Do you want to be strong?"
"Yes," they said instinctively as they were suppressed by him, "I can give you strength, magic that can destroy all your foes, no one will ever look down on you, you will reach heights you never imagined," said Glaze as he inched closer
The guards gulped, they knew how terrifying the hero was, they saw it with their own eyes. If they could gain such power they thought with temptation.
Glaze opened his right palm and a magic book appeared on his hand, it was a Master Stage Magic Book - Lava Magic, he opened his left palm and it shined with a red radiance as he channeled Divine Slave magic.
"This is just a starting gift, if you join me, submit your soul to me , protect me with your life, make me your King ,I will make you the strongest Kingsguard to have ever existed in the Human Realm" said he as he looked at the 10 guards with a smile.
The 10 guards had their heads spinning , they were poor and didn't have much talent or resources , they were stuck at Level 10 even after training for years and still used Apprentice Magic at Novice stage as they could not afford stronger magic or get trained by an expert, and now in front of them was a Master Stage Magic Book , that was actually terrifyingly powerful as well.
To these people who had no hope of improving or getting a better life, this was something that could change their and their family's life and affect their entire future generations. In exchange, they were asked to submit to the Hero, with Slave Magic, and make him their King and thus making them traitors to the current King.
Their lives were at a risk every day anyway and they had not much to lose, seeing this opportunity in front of them was like seeing an exquisite wine when they had never even tasted grapes, this made them irresistible to this temptation as this was their chance to rise above being just another commoner.
One the guards got up and touched Glaze's left palm willing injecting himself with Divine Slave Magic as he took the Master Stage Lava Magic book from his right hand and then kneeled in front of Glaze and said "I shall serve you in life and death, I shall be your sword and slay all that stand in your path and shield against all that dare harm you, I am honored to be your Kingsguard, my King"
Glaze smiled, this was just what he needed, as soon as one person gave in the rest of them quickly lined up and started injecting themselves with Divine Slave Magic and took the Master Stage Magic Book from his right hand.
All ten of them lined up and kneeled in front of him as the Divine Slave Magic pattern glowed on their chest , " We shall serve you in life and death , we shall be your sword and slay all that stand in your path and shield against all that dare harm you, we are honored to be your Kingsguard, my King"

Beyond the Bridge
There are many worlds, many multiverses, and you can move between them via the Federation's Bridge network - magical gateways to other worlds. The world dubbed "C'thon" by its inhabitants - or Gamma-Theta-Nu-649, if you ask the Federation's bureaucracy - was deserted when the Federation found it. The "civilized" races had all died out centuries prior, and the wilderness had grown downright feral in their absence. Now, the lonely Federation outpost of Bridgetown is under constant threat from the hungry wildlife, malicious fey, territorial goblins, and wandering undead that surround it. The town's distance from the Federation's centers of power means that it gets precious few of the resources that it needs to stay safe and afloat. Enter the Guild of Adventurers, a plucky and disparate crew who do the Federation's dirty work in exchange for coin. One team, the first of many, crosses the Bridge to C'thon looking for fame, fortune, and (if they're lucky) the answer to a newly-discovered Prophecy. They'll get much more than they bargained for, although first they need to avoid being eaten by the local wildlife. Updates weekly on Wednesday. Chapters will be as long as they need to be for them to work, which means they can vary. If anything drops below 2500 words, I'll post an extra chapter if I have one ready. [PS: This is not a litRPG, but I do borrow heavily from TTRPGs for inspiration, and the general setting and storyline is from a TTRPG campaign I'm running.] [PPS: This is my first attempt at writing long-form fiction. I'm not trying to make a great piece of literature or have a multi-novel overarching plot, but hopefully it'll still be a fun story - let me know what you think in the comments.] [PPPS: Cover image is from a free-download wallpaper by Tyler Edlin; I do not own it, and will take it down immediately if requested.]

Poems
While in English exists only one word for it, the ancient Greeks with their aim for self-understanding and knowledge found eight different varieties of love that we might all experience at some point:1. Eros (Erotic love) - represents the idea of sexual passion and desire;2. Philia (Affectionate love) - friendship, love between equals;3. Storge (Familial love) - love between close family members;4. Ludus (Playful love) - the early stages of falling in love;5. Mania (Obsessive love) - an imbalance between eros and ludus;6. Pragma (Enduring love) - love that has matured and developed over time;7. Philautia (Self love) - self-love in its healthiest form;8. Agape (Selfless love) - the highest and most radical type of love.(Unless stated otherwise, everything except the art belongs to me.)
