Kingdom of feloria

King Arthur pov

Council meeting room

“Your majesty, we need to do countermeasures, our enemy is stronger than what we expected”. One of the 12 councils exclaimed as the king called their presence.

“Your, majesty we need to call the 7 heroes to subjugate them all, for what they’ve done to our army tney need to be exterminated,” the older man beside the prime minister exclaimed.

“Be quite everyone, we need to think wisely in this situation. If we call the 7 heroes then our country will do martial law. And if we do that many will suffer. “The white hair old man and the prime minister, told everyone present in the meeting.

‘’besides, it is their duty to protect our kingdom if we face a crisis? That’s what they signed for.” The first man who speaks a while ago added to the conversation.

The king just looks at the people inside the room as they bickering on what to do after what happen to the army that was sent to help brent to eliminate the enemy inside the border.

“I think we don’t have a choice but to call them back, besides it’s the time of the year for them to come back.” I stood up and walk near the window and look at the blue sky while all their gazes concentrated on me.

“Make all the preparations so that they can reach the border as fast as they could,” I order one of the council presents who was in charge in a situation like this.

Lucas pov (one of the guardians)

A carriage was quickly speeding away from the forest where the main road was located.

Strong horses were pulling a large carriage that was more than large enough to carry six passengers.

Many monsters are lurking in the nights, not only criminals who are hiding inside the forest but also the demi-humans, beast and different kind of animals are residing in it.

Traveling in the night like this seems to be dangerous but the passenger inside the carriage seems to be silent as the carriages were trembling due to the fact the carriage was moving on stone pavements.

Before, the road was not like this until recently when one of the successors of the king suggests making it like this.

It made the travel easier than before and the most especially the wagons and other carriages will not be constantly being damaged due to the condition of the roads before going to feloria.

The cost of road maintenance stirred up a lot of commotion as well. But as a successor of the king, many of its followers agreed and just followed the next king.

As I saw below, the road was quite well maintained maybe because it’s near and was belong to the jurisdiction of the king that’s why it was well made.

However, it wasn't perfect. The carriage traveling on the road would still wobble occasionally, and the passengers would feel the vibration.

Due to the shaking, the conversation inside the carriage ended as if they had just finished a topic.

In the carriage were Pitou, vermi besides him, Lucas seated opposite them and two demon generals. Craig is the one who drive the carriage beside him is ari who was well dressed due to the cold temperature.

After a momentary silence in the carriage, Lucas opened his mouth with a relaxed tone:

"There is a certain matter I’ve always wanted to inquire about.."

"Hmm? Really ? What is it?" Pitou asked.

"You and zeberu seem to be on bad terms, is there any reason for that?"

"... Actually, I don't think our relationship is bad."

The serious gaze of Pitou looking outside made the woman inside the carriage gasped because of his masculinity and being handsome no matter what his expressions are.

After that, he looked at us and attempted to speak but stop in the middle and look outside again.

"It doesn't feel that way." Pitou murmured.

"maybe because were not in good terms from the first place because I’m an outcast and I wasn’t created by his majesty unlike all of you” Pitou looked at us with jealousy.

“So that's how it is!" I was wondering for a while, why both of you always had a sour face when facing each other, but anyways it’s not my concern”. I also looked outside as the beautiful moon shining so beautifully at the cloudless sky.

The reason why we are traveling back to the feloria was mainly because of the incident happen days ago. That’s why his majesty sent us to gather information that we needed to counter measure their attacks in the future.

As we almost near the gate, there are several guards guarding the gate. Before there are only 4 guards assigned in each gate but now dozens of them are patrolling already.

" stop! Can you please show us your faces?" The head security stops us when we reach the gate and asked us.

" OK,!" Master pitou answered and then the lamp inside the carriage was lit by a candle and showed our faces to the guard.

" thank you for your cooperation!" The head officer told us.

" by the way, Mr? Why is it that there are a lot of guards now than the previous? " pitou asked the guy who was about to leave.

" ahh, the king gives an order that we should heighten our security because there might be an attack from the enemy!" The head guard blabbered as if the info he just gave right now was still a secret to everyone.

We passed at the bridge that is connected to the other gate before you can enter the main road to feloria capital. It seems that they just doubled their security throughout the walls since inside the gate were soldiers who are busy patrolling and running back and forth from their post.

When we reach the central plaza, the carriage turn left and run straight to the richest part of the capital where you can find the luxury from all kinds of accommodation, restaurants and so on.

Pitou got out first then we just followed him. We enter in the most expensive hotel in feloria kingdom. They boast that their hotel is the finest and most luxurious accommodation throughout the continent. But in my own opinion, it could not be compared to what busuana can offer.

Most of the new buildings were a state of the art and more luxurious than these establishments but anyways since we cannot do anything from it, we just keep our mouth shut.

We were lead to the 4rth floor where we occupy the 3 largest rooms that they had. Pitou and I are in the same room and the rest are in the next rooms. We went outside the hotel after we settle down our belongings and we started our mission.
