Heavenly Saga

After hearing the last words of his master, Kraftvoll's eyes suddenly turned into what they were when he was committing mass murder in the first trial of light from The Valkyrie.

A moment later, he said to his master, King Arthur, "I can survive there, master!"

"You-! You managed to kill someone, aren't you, my student? What kind of trial did you do in that great being's territory?" asked the king of Walkiria Kingdom after seeing Kraftvoll's expression.

After hearing the king's question, Kraftvoll realized that he was showing a grim expression. When he stopped wearing that expression, he glanced toward his girlfriend and close friend which both looked terrified of what he was just showing earlier.

"I'm sorry for scaring you two!" said Kraftvoll as he went near the two young ladies.

After regaining their composure, Kraftvoll suddenly turned to his master, "Yes, master. Unfortunately, I failed in the first trial so I was unable to get the inheritance of the great being. The Valkyrie wanted my journey there to bore some fruit so she let me train there to improve the purity of my seishin spell.

"I see. Well, it's evident of the light seishin essences that I can feel inside you. That kind of level was something a light seishin practitioner can achieve when they reached the Higher Seishin Overlord rank." said the King of Walkiria Kingdom as he observed his student.

After a few moments, King Arthur intentionally coughed a little to say something to his student, "Well, back to our topic. Before I make a decision, my student, just promises me one thing."

After hearing his master, Kraftvoll felt delighted deep in his mind so he nodded as fast as he could to show his agreement.

A moment later, King Arthur asked Kraftvoll with a very serious face, "Promise me that you will return alive. While you're on that, protect all those people that are important to you. I can't protect you on that side because of the pact that is created by the past Majestic Seishin Demigod practitioners."

"I promise, master! I will never tarnish your greatness by dying! By the way, what is that pact, master?" asked Kraftvoll. He could not help but be curious about the thing that his master had just mention.

King Arthur decided to just brush aside his question saying, "You will know that information in the future, my student. Now, the three of you can leave. I will tell the servants to prepare a carriage for the three of you tomorrow. I will leave Kyomi at your care, then."

After hearing the king of the kingdom, Kraftvoll and the two young ladies were all delighted by his agreement. "Thank you, master/father/Your Majesty!" they all said in unison as they exited the study of the king.

As he observed Kraftvoll's departure from his study, King Arthur thought to himself, 'This is great! It seems like he managed to overcome a hurdle that is very hard to pass! Well, this war is going to be more lessons for him. I will call Headmaster Wylris, later on, to tell him to protect him. After all, he is the Holy Alliance's only hope of ending this long war!'

While Kraftvoll and the two girls were walking through the halls of Feuersturms Castle, Kraftvoll was greeted happily by the person they encountered.

"Big bro Kraftvoll! Long time no see! I never heard from you in the academy for some time. When I ask about you to big sis that you went on a journey! Where did you go?" asked Prince Uther as soon as he encountered Kraftvoll and his two companions.

"Uther! Long time no see! I just had a journey to the Valkyrie Forest so that I could breakthrough. I just managed to succeed so I returned home after stabilizing my cultivation," said Kraftvoll as a response to Princess Kyomi's younger brother.

Uther's eyes suddenly sparkled after hearing Kraftvoll. He bombarded him with various questions since Kraftvoll was able to pique his interest. That's what they did as they walked toward their destination.

The morning came just like that. The birds were singing as they accompanied each other on the branches of the trees. Kraftvoll slowly opened his eyes as he woke up from the songs of the birds.

After he tidied himself up a little, Kraftvoll came out of his personal room in Feuersturm Castle. As soon as he did come out, he was greeted by Belle and Princess Kyomi who were both waiting for him to be ready.

"Good morning, Kraftvoll!"

"Good morning, my love!"

Kraftvoll smiled after hearing the greetings of the two. He said in response, "Good morning to the two of you! Is our carriage ready to depart?"

"Yeah. It's getting ready any minute now. Let's go to father to say our farewell to him," said Princess Kyomi to Kraftvoll.

After Kraftvoll's agreement, the three of them went to the king's study without wasting any more time because their journey was a rather long one. 

"Master, we came here to see you before we leave," said Kraftvoll as he politely knocked on the door of the king's study.

"The three of you may come in," the king only said after hearing Kraftvoll. 

"I came here to say our farewell, master. I promise not to bring shame your name!" said Kraftvoll with a resolute face as soon as he entered the room.

King Arthur showed a hint of a smile on his face after hearing Kraftvoll. A moment later, he said to him, "Well, there's nothing I can say to you. Just give them hell!"

Kraftvoll could not help but smile after hearing his master. He bowed sincerely in front of his master while he was saying, "I will take my leave now, master!"

Without any hesitation on their mind, the three of them exited the study of the king after the two young ladies especially Princess Kyomi to say their goodbyes.

When they exited the Feuersturm Castle, Kraftvoll and the two young ladies beside him were greeted by the members of the royal family that were currently staying in the castle.

"Big Bro Kraftvoll, can I join you in your journey to the Krieg Verwustet?" asked Uther as he went toward Kraftvoll's side the moment he saw the three of them.

"Well, you can join me next time after you graduate. I can't protect you now even though I just reached new heights. I promise you that I will bring you when you become stronger so train hard!" said Kraftvoll after hearing the prince of Walkiria Kingdom.

Prince Uther wanted to persuade Kraftvoll more but he was stopped by his mother, the queen of Walkirias Kingdom after just one glare. After doing that to the young prince, the queen immediately went to Princess Kyomi's side.

The queen hugged Princess Kyomi while she was saying to her, "Do you really have to go, my dear? If you must then you better promise me you will return safe and sound to my side!"

"I will, mom, so you don't have to worry. We will go now!" said Princess Kyomi to his mother while she was hugged by her very tightly.

After a few moments, a carriage without any crest of any noble families suddenly arrived in front of the entrance of Feuersturm Castle. Upon seeing that, Kraftvioll and the two ladies that were accompanying him rode it even with some hesitations in their minds.

"Goodbye, my dear!"

"Goodbye, big sis!"

"Goodbye, big bro Kraftvoll!"

Kraftvoll and Princess Kyomi showed their bright smiles while they were waving toward those who wanted to send them off. While this was happening, Belle could not help but be lonely in her situation. She remembered her presently missing father after seeing the princess's interaction with her family members.

As her boyfriend, Kraftvoll was able to notice Belle's change of behavior so the moment he sat beside her, Kraftvoll decided to kiss her right on her forehead.

The only thing that Belle did in response was blush because of her elation due to Kraftvoll's action. After seeing Belle's expression, Kraftvoll thought to himself, 'This girl is really cute! How about I-~!?'

Kraftvoll was in the middle of his thought when Belle suddenly say to them, "Can the two of you stop flirting!? Please I will be accompanying you for some time so please can the two of you avoid flirting in front of me!?"

Kraftvoll and Belle just laughed awkwardly after hearing Princess Kyomi's remarks. That's when the carriage began to depart from the castle of the Stolz Royal Family.

"By the way, why are we riding at a carriage without the crest of the royal family? Wouldn't we be safer with it?" asked Belle after she regained her composure after Kraftvoll's action.

"Yeah. Numerous bandits would try to attack us with this kind of carriage? Why did Father decide this?" asked Princess Kyomi as well.

"Master told me that we need to disguise ourselves. After all, the enemy alliance was trying to get me ever since I was a kid! Now, this is going to be a more difficult journey! Let's prepare ourselves!"
