Veel World: The Miracle With Flaws
Chapters 3.1
Zhel walked down the corpse of the giant snake that he had defeated, but what he thought was what the Shadow Monarch Demon King was actually talking about about The Promiser.
When he got to the bottom, many people were waiting for him. One of them was King Adam Waren IV.
“Thank you for your hard work Zhel” said King Adam who then spread out his hands and a smile full of joy.
“Ya” Zhel said with a smile.
Zhel approached King Adam, he then embraced King Adam who spread out his arms.
“Welcome back” said King Adam.
Formerly King Adam had ventured before becoming a King, at that time he and Ana lived on a mountain together leaving his position as a royal family. The first time he met Zhel was when Ana was almost killed by a wild beast, Zhel fought the beast but Zhel himself was the victim.
When King Adam asked about his family, Zhel said he had no parents. After that Zhel was considered a son by King Adam, he raised Zhel and Ana together. But finally King Adam's father, Sendar Waren III died, King Adam replaced his position because he was the only child.
As for Zhel, he lives alone in the city with the rest of his parents' legacy. And after the humiliation he received, Zhel lived alone on the mountain where King Adam used to live.
“How long has it been?”
“Entahlah.. 12 years maybe”.
“You've become a strong man Zhel” stroked Zhel's head.
“You are also uncle... You have become a great King” said Zhel.
But the warm embrace did not last long, Zhel's heartbeat was very painful. His body was about to explode right then and there, feeling the strange Zhel move away from King Adam.
He clenched his chest which felt very sore, then he coughed with blood coming out of his mouth.
“Pa..man” said Zhel staring at King Adam.
Zhel's face was covered in blood coming out of his mouth, his body shaking violently the pain that Zhel had never felt appeared. After that Zhel fell down in front of King Adam, Zhel's face paled and his eyes opened wide.
“Zhel?!” King Adam approached Zhel.
When King Adam was near, a sense of tightness gnawed at him. It was a sign that he was running out of Mana, yet when fighting mana his was still left quite a lot.
-What... Zhel's body sucks Where is mine?! Think King Adam.
King Adam did not care about it, he immediately carried Zhel's unmoving body. When Zhel's skin was touched, what King Adam felt was cold as a corpse. But King Adam could still feel the pulse and heartbeat that still existed.
“The witches get away! soldiers who have no Mana come here and bring this man!” king Adam said in haste.
Then some soldiers came and carried a stretcher, due to the abnormal circumstances of King Adam closing Zhel's eyes so as not to frighten everyone.
Zhel was eventually treated in a special room, and only a few people were allowed to visit him.
~2 weeks later~
In a luxurious room inside the Waren royal palace, 2 people were talking seriously.
“So that's how I know” said Chairman Helder.
“Ability that can control Mana around it... Not only can it absorb, but it can also give... And the capacity is unknown, there are infinite possibilities as well... Hmm this is a bit serious” said King Adam who then pinched his chin.
“I also want to report that Commander Dale has regained consciousness, he is in rehab”
“Of course... He used the Humanity Breakable Skill, using it briefly would have a terrible impact... Then... Is there anything else?”
“Actually I have 1 more... However..”
“Say”
“Actually... Zhel Draze's body changed”
“Change? What do you mean?” king Adam asked with a curious face.
“When it grows a black object resembling horn”
Hearing that King Adam rose from his chair, he opened his eyes wide with a surprised face.
“How can you?!”
“This is just a theory. however I thought maybe because Zhel sucked Mana from the Scar Demon King his body changed... His Mana sucking ability sucked the Demon King Mana and made his own body change due to the Contaminated Mana... That's the conclusion we can accept at this time”
King Adam sat down and folded his fingers, putting on a serious face. But at this time it is not only an important problem, there are 1 more problem that must be solved.
“Good... That's what we take care of later... What about Hero Jim Dazzel?” king Adam sat back in his chair.
“We get a lot of information... Yet... Just hearing it has made me confused myself to say what”
“Tell the point just”
Chief Helder took a heavy breath, he opened his mouth and said something inappropriate to hear.
“The Kingdom of Severth has a lot of dirty relationships like the Thousand Magic group and others... They also have prepared themselves for battle”
King Adam was silent for a moment, he had already predicted this after the arrival of the Hero who destroyed his kingdom. But this is not true, the hero who was called upon to defend mankind according to the peace treaty. They are called to save humanity from the Demon King, but the Kingdom of Severth intends to make heroes of personal property and start a war.
“Enough... You can go"
“Alright then I beg to withdraw” said Chairman Helder who then lowered his head.
Chief Helder left after King Adam nodded, inside the room King Adam thought about this complicated matter. His one commander is still not fully recovered, and the kingdom's saviour has not yet been decimated. On the other hand, the kingdom of Severth is ambitious to take over the land belonging to other kingdoms by relying on heroes.
“This is too childish for a Raja”
When King Adam was lost in thought a knock came from the door.
“Yang Mulia's... I have important news”
“Masuk”
A buttler enters the room, he is the personal bodyguard of King Adam. He looks more than a century old, but his body is still healthy as young. The gray-white hair and whiskers were clearly visible, but his eyes were sharp and looked like blazing flames. He wears Buttler clothes with a neat and ideal posture.
“So how are you Martin”
“Yang Mulia's... Looks like a guy named Zhel is getting laid”
“Really ? That's great news”
“And there is 1 more... The royal envoy of Severth came to me”
Hearing that, King Adam thought hard, he did not think that the Kingdom of Severth would move so quickly.
“I'll see him... For a man named Zhel please keep an eye on him... Hmm I'll ask Ana to see her later”
“Understanding... Please come through here Your Majesty” said Martin who opened the way to the door.
King Adam got up from his chair and walked out of the room, in the mind of King Adam today is full of various complicated problems.
