Three Lives

City repairs

The two of them attacked each other regardless of their injuries. Their hands are covered in blood.

Above the sky right in front of the sky dragon's face. A person stood in midair, his gaze was extremely cold and dark emotions were drawn from his flat expression.

His black coat and tie were blown with the wind and his yellow eyes shone as if they could kill anyone who looked into his eyes. There was the sound of broken glass as he snapped a finger.

The light returned to his eyes that had been empty since. His expression was dazed as he had just regained his consciousness.

"Master?!"

Celestial voices echoed throughout the kingdom. All the fighting came to a halt and looked towards that voice. Eigero and Lucas smiled as they knew that his brother had returned.

"You disappointed me. I didn't think you'd be exposed to weak magic like this."

"What! But ... I ..."

Zanir clicked his finger and Celestial disappeared just like that. The sunlight again illuminated the kingdom. But that doesn't change the white-armored robots destroying the city and the damage is worse.

"As expected of the strongest magic knight." Roy muttered with annoyance looking up at the sky.

"Don't distract you!"

Reiki lunged but Roy just turned right and kicked Reiki's stomach until it bounced.

"It is now impossible for you to win." Say Roy by showing Reiki.

The sky was covered by hundreds of magic circles. From there came a jet-black spear and was ready to be dropped.

"Dead."

With one word, the entire kingdom was showered by black spears. The hundreds of spears only hit the white-armored robot. They disappeared like dust as soon as they hit the deadly spear. Roy moved to and fro because the black spears were after him.

The spear did not hit Reiki because it was only targeting the enemy. Reiki looked up at the sky and saw Zanir doing this. He understood why Verry said Zanir was a respected man. A force capable of sweeping through hundreds of enemies with a single strike was an extremely impossible thing to do.

The white-armored robot has been exposed to Zanir's attack. And Roy's wounds from the deadly attack began to heal. His wounds evaporated and disappeared.

"Enough to get here. My job is done."

Roy throws a ball of smoke and disappears from Reiki's sight. Zanir descended down and approached the wounded Reiki. His eyes were still filled with unexplainable emotions.

Now in front of Reiki, Zanir who is always cheerful and smiling is no longer there. What he saw was someone serious and full of ambition. It was as if he saw two different people.

"Figures. Can you explain what happened while I wasn't around?"

Reiki just looked down and stared at the ground. He understands that Zanir is angry because of the damage he caused but he does not know the purpose of Roy attacking the kingdom.

"That's..."

His voice was stuck in his throat. It's hard to explain what happened.

"Let me guess. The enemy is after you and involves the kingdom."

Zanir's guess is more or less correct. Roy came and attacked me and just left, that was already an indisputable fact.

Reiki did not hear Zanir's threat because he was too scared because he could see a monstrous figure with red eyes grinning at him behind Zanir.

"Forget it. Now, you have to help the citizens to repair the damage in the city."

Reiki nodded quickly. His wounds also disappeared just like that after Zanir left him. Reiki set his breath and looked at the sky so brightly.

"If I were as strong as him." Reiki Mumbled.

In the town square right in the middle of the city, there was a portal guarded by several knights. The refugees have returned to their city. Some people are happy to have survived the disaster, some are crying because their homes are destroyed and some are relieved.

The king approached. No one was unaware of the king's presence. They were fixed on their king who stood before them authoritatively.

"O my beloved people! The terrible disaster has passed, I am the White Arc, as the king of Aquostria is very pleased.See you all are well and there are no casualties in this terrible event."

Everyone smiled happily because their king cared more for commoners like them than the ruined city.

"The kingdom of Aquostria is not a place but all of you. If a kingdom is without people, it is not a kingdom. I want you all to give your help to restore the kingdom, no. I mean our home!"

"Yes!!"

All the citizens cheered in joy after hearing the extraordinary speech of the king. To them, a king like Arc was a very perfect king and was different from the previous one. They used to have to work hard to pay unreasonable taxes.

After Arc became king of the Aquostrian kingdom, everything changed. They no longer need to fidget about paying high taxes and so on. Arc was the figure of the king coveted by them. He had never seen his people as a tool like a king before. Instead he saw his people as the kingdom itself.

After the king turned around to take care of other matters, the citizens excitedly began to take up the royong rebuilding their ruined houses.

"He was a great king."

Sora who after hearing the king's speech was amazed will bring the king. He did not believe that this kingdom was led by a very great king also very young. His age is not much different from her.

"You're right. It's not easy to lead a kingdom of this size, he's also disinclined by his people."

Sevira is also in her fox form amazed by the charisma of Arc. What made him not believe was that the king was Zanir's brother.

Sevira knew it because her name was White. Not only had two great sisters but also her brother was a king. Now you don't wonder why Zanir always wore such a luxurious coat that made him look like a noble.

"Now, we have to help the people. I'm part of this country now."

Sora ran and eagerly helped the citizens who were carrying royong. Sevira curled up and slept on Sora's head.

Zanir who used teleport appeared in the royal throne room. He knelt before the king who had just returned and was sitting on his throne.

"How's it?"

"As we thought. There was someone who put up the miasma so as to create a dangerous forest. Even though I've defeated the monsters and blew up the forest it will still come back. So I put up a barrier so that the monsters there don't go out of the forest."

"Thank you for the report. You can go."

Zanir stood up, bowed and left the room.
