DESTINY GIRL

96. Xenias

The city is very calm. Rey and Asgar walked in. When it passed through the market suddenly a knight rode quickly across the streets. He shouted out loud for people to step aside.

" Qnlnfirrr.....! mgiir......! "

( "Eh.......?! )

Rey looked at Asgar. It seemed like it was a female voice even though it was a bit hoarse. Asgar shrugged his shoulders while Zigaz squeaked.

In the end they did not care, after all there was nothing. They continued to walk towards the palace. On the street many are greeting or just nodding at Rey and Asgar.

When it came to the palace that was in the process of construction, it looked like people were watching something. Rey beckoned Zigaz to look over the crowd.

Zigaz flies over people. He saw a woman wearing armor scolding a man who was also a big body. Zigaz returns to Rey and tweets to Rey.

" Come Asgar... " Rey pulled Asgar's arm through the crowd. The people who recognized Rey and Asgar immediately gave way. Rey looked at Zacko who was scratching his head as the female knight got angry while brandishing her sword.

" What is this Zacko ?! " rey's soft but clear voice made everyone turn to Rey.

Zacko straightened his head when he heard Rey's voice.

" Miss. Me ...... "

A sharp sword tip stopped under Zacko's chin. Zacko. Rey just glanced.

" You must marry me soon....! " said the girl.

" xe... Xenia.

" Okay.....! "

( "Asgar you were here to oversee the construction of ") Rey said in telepathy. Asgar nodded.

Rey, Zacko, Greg and Xenia walked together towards the headquarters. Along the way Zacko continued to murmur incoherently.

While Asgar went around observing what had been done. He also heard people talking about the new king. Most of them all tend to vote for Greg. Because it's friendly, and wise. He is also sensitive. But in terms of strength, Zacko is clearly strong and emotional. It's just that they don't want a king that's too strong (like King Higo). For them a wise king will make the country prosperous. Let Zacko be a Knight or a warlord.

At the headquarters, only Rey sat down, the other 3 chose to stand alone.

" Tell me what your name is Miss "ask Rey

" I am Xenia, Miss. I was looking for Zacko because he promised to marry me after I finished dealing with the problem at the northern border of TREXODIA "obviously Xenia while glancing at Zacko.

" Zacko..... ? " Rey looked at Zacko.

" I did promise her that way, Miss. But that's before I know who he is " replied Zacko then lowered his head.

" Who is he ? " ask Rey smiling.

" She is the Princess of TREXODIA King, Miss. Whereas we were robbers in the GARLOC forest "Greg explained.

" I can't possibly let my men do harm because of Xenia. So I opted out of the TREXODIA Kingdom" Zacko said.

Rey breathed. He looked at Xenia who closed her eyes. There was a sadness that he was hiding.

Suddenly flashed dots of glittering light. That's Kendrick. He stood to the side and pecked Rey's head.

Zacko and Greg immediately knelt down on one leg.

" My Lord's.... "

" Wakeup..... "

Xenia looked at everything in silence. He doesn't know who Rey or Kendrick are. He thinks they might be Zacko's employer by now. So he doesn't have to pay respect.

It soon passed by the beams of light that stopped beside Xenia. A graceful woman wearing a crown appeared. He immediately pulled Xenia's hand until she fell to her knees in front of Kendrick.

" Hail Your Majesty.

" Wake up Elena." replied Kendrick.

Xenia.... He realized who the man his mother respected. He is the Eternal Sovereign of the land of light, King ASTRACO.... ?! Oh no.....! Xenia looked down deeply.

Elena woke up but remained down. He let Xenia be like that. Kendrick smiled. Xenia was born with the fire element, so it was only natural that her emotions were unstable.

Kendrick touched his head to balance the fire element of Xenia. Xenia felt a force enter her body.

He closed his eyes until the process was complete.

" Wake up Xenia." ordered Kendrick.

Xenia immediately stood up but remained lowered. He felt unworthy before the Eternal Sovereign.

" am... Forgive slave... Her Majesty." said Xenia nervously.

" Your choice is not wrong Xenia. Only the timing is not right. Zacko is also from Astraco. But he was destined to serve the Kingdom of HIGRESIA. You'll marry later if Zacko becomes a Knight "

Xenia turned to look at Zacko. His mouth opened speechless. While Zacko himself was shocked to hear the words of the Immortal Sovereign. He also looked at Greg before looking back at Xenia.

" Thank you, Your Majesty.

" Thank you My Lord" said Zacko

" Thank you Your Majesty "Xenia looked down in embarrassment.

" Come back.let Xenia be with Zacko these few days" Kendrick said waving at Elena. Elena bowed before turning into light and left.

" Live here a few days Xenia. Don't think about Zacko. You have to learn to suppress your anger "Rey speaks softly.

" M.. forgive me, Queen.... "

" I'm not queen yet, Xenia. Call Miss just "

" Eh... well "

Rey pulled Kendrick's hand. Greg followed. They're out of the room. Letting Zacko and Xenia talk in private.

" Miss, I will return to the palace, continuing the work of "sincere Greg. Rey and Asgar nodded.

Rey took Kendrick to the base's backyard. They sat on a bench made of solid ground (the work of Zacko).

" Kendrick.. Do you know who has ever been close to Destraco, I mean someone other than you ? " ask Rey seriously.

Kendrick furrowed his brows. A moment later shook his head.

" Did he have a lover ? " ask Rey again.

" I don't think so, he hates anyone even his own mother. He was overcome by his desire to become a ruler from childhood "

" That's it... Who was your babysitter as a child ? " ask Rey to know.

Kendrick looked at Rey. He tried to remember.

" I.

" You....... You don't remember your childhood ?! Could it be that your head has ever been hit by a rock ? " Rey asked in wonder.

Kendrick took a long breath.

" Destraco has hurt me many times as a child. His father finally brought him out of the land of light. He returns when Astraco is about to marry Princess Selena. But he killed Astraco and burned his body the day before the wedding. It's just that Princess Selena immediately recognized him while the wedding was going on so Destraco also killed him. Princess Selena curses him (swearing with drops of blood) in the final moments of his death "Kendrick looks up at the sky with his sadness.

Both of them were silent to the stories of the past.
