2024-08-14 21:27:22"My Lord, is this truly the right course of action." A soldier asked Eric as the group of soldiers were walking through a cave tunnel.
"Yes. This is the way to get back the respect that I had lost because of our enemies." Eric said to him with a glare at the soldiers. The soldier's flinched at his glare as they knew that they couldn't and shouldn't do anything that might anger him. After all, as the prince of their kingdom, he can do anything he wants to them as he so wished. So doing anything to displease him as it might be dangerous to them. They also don't know what it is that their prince wants to find for himself in the cave, but as soldiers it is their duty to follow his orders and so that is what they are doing. The soldier at the front of the group held his torch as he walked forward followed by the rest of the group as he kept his gaze all around him to make sure that he wasn't taken by surprise by anything in the cave. They silently but methodically advanced into the cave as the soldiers kept their eyes peeled while Eric also looked around and made sure that they are going in the correct direction. 'If what that mage has told me is true, then we should be reaching the place by following this path.' Eric thought to himself as he walked as he was surrounded by his soldiers. They kept on walking for a few more minutes until they reached a wall covered in Nordic runes. The soldiers who saw ur looked at it with wide eyes as they glanced at their prince in confusion as to what to do. Eric meanwhile looked at the wall with wide eyes as it correlated with the information that he had gotten from the mage. A smile appeared on his face when he saw it as he walked forward. "Make way." Eric said as the soldiers parted for him to walk. He walked past the soldiers and stood in front of the wall as he looked at it and then he took out the scroll that he was given by the mage as he looked at it. He made sure that it was in the right direction before he looked at it and then at the wall. He then took out a gem infused with magical energy and looked at the and then at the runes on the wall. He raised the stone as it glowed in a green light and he started to drag it over the runes. He looked at the scroll in his hand and at the instructions and then at the wall and the runes. He then started to use the stone to draw over the runes in an order as they glowed as he kept on drawing over the runes one after the other as they glowed one after the other. Soon all the runes on the wall started to glow as the soldiers watched with wide eyes at what they were seeing their prince doing. They watched as all the runes glowed in a golden light before the entire wall started to glow as it blinded the eyes of the soldiers and the prince. When the light stopped and the soldiers and Prince opened their eyes they saw that the wall in front of them had disappeared as they looked at it in surprise. Eric took a few moments to process the information before he walked through the place where the wall was. The sight that greeted him was that of a dome like place which is covered in ancient markings and platform made using ancient architecture as they looked at the place as the soldiers walked inside. In the middle of the room was an elevated small platform which held a prism shaped object using stone-like material which is covered in ancient runes as Eric looked at the scroll which has the drawing of the same prism shaped object. "This is it." Eric said to himself with a smile as he looked at the thing. He went near it and signalled for a soldier to go take it. The soldier at the front hesitantly stepped forward and went and picked up the prism and held it in his hands before he showed it to his prince. Eric looked at the prism in wonder as he held it in his hands as he looked at the scroll one more time before he held the charged stone in his hand and then stabbed it onto the prism. The prism started to glow in the same golden light as the wall as Eric's smile widened as the soldiers grew restless when seeing it as they looked at their prince in worry and fear as the light blinded them and filled the rest of the dome as they were blinded by it. ########### "*Gasp!*" Lucas gasped in shock as he sat straight from his place on the top of the mansion. He looked at his chest where a few runes were inscribed on himself as they were faintly glowing while he felt pain course through his body as he held a hand over the runes. 'These runes are supposed to warn me about great danger. What could have happened for them to activate now?' Lucas thought to himself as he looked at himself in apprehension.

Lucas didn't give the soldiers a chance to attack as he immediately lunged forward with his sword ready, the runes taking effect as he swung and decapitated three soldiers as his sword sang as it cut through the necks of the soldiers with ease as its wielder spun around as he shot out flames which burned the soldiers as they cried out in pain. He looked at Kriemhild as she also attacked the soldiers as her sword was also able to cut through their armor and their bodies as the sword was working as he had intended as he smiled to himself as he focused back on the enemies. The mages were busy putting up shields to deflect the flames from Falkor which only annoyed the wyvern as it roared and increased the speed as it flew through the air and attacked the other soldiers as the mages kept on using shields as they knew that they couldn't lose them. The archers also attacked the wyvern but it was proving to be ineffective as the wyvern was able to dodge the arrows as they were getting angr
Chapter 58
Lucas quickly put on his armor and grabbed his sword as he dashed out of his room, startling the servants near his room as they looked at him in shock as he quickly went down the stairs, his armor making noise which caught the attention of his parents as they came out of a room to find him in armor. "Son?" Leif called out in confusion alongside his wife. "The enemy soldiers are attacking!" Lucas shouted as he dashed without stopping as his words caused the eyes of his parents to widen alongside the servants. "What!?" All of them shouted in shock at his sudden declaration. But Lucas didn't wait for a response as he threw open the doors of the entrance as be spotted Falkor who was currently chilling on the ground, though he did sense his Master and looked at him. "Get ready to fly!" Lucas shouted as the Wyvern's eyes narrowed in response as it let out a light roar. Falkor raised his wings as he raised his body up using his legs as Lucas jumped onto his back as he steadied him
Chapter 57
Alpha and his comrades were keeping watch at the border as they had been ordered by Lucas and they hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary in there, just the usual forest and the animals that live, there weren't any disturbances nor any soldiers, though he did feel concerned that they would attack at once, but they would be able to see him, after all they had been trained for reconnaissance and while they aren't as good as their master, they could at least move away before the attack and warm Lucas during the time of attack. They were scattered around the border, with weapons at the ready in case of an ambush and were a good distance away from the border and hidden so that they will be able to safely kill any small group of soldiers that came out of the kingdom and intruded into their own. While it was a bit boring, it was safe and it wasn't like there was any danger now so he is quite content with doing this, it also allowed him to enjoy the wildlife as well. It was tranquil and e
Chapter 56
The new day started as Lucas woke up and started to train in his magic as he stayed in his room and kept a watch on the borders of the kingdom to make sure that his subordinates are fine and was glad to see that they were keeping watch over the border. Though he is dissatisfied about the fact that he wasn't able to look at the enemy kingdom and understand what was happening. Falkor is also in the garden and is working as a guard to ensure that they are safe. Since he has very sharp senses, he would be able to know when danger is afoot, which will allow him and his family to be ready. He doesn't know who has shot that attack but he knows that they are strong for being able to do that. But he also didn't know if that was the best they could do or if they have more tricks up their sleeve. There were more questions than answers, which frustrated him as he didn't know what to do in such a situation, other than creating plans based on what he knows and can hypothesize as he just wante
Chapter 55
The moment Lucas returned to his home he told his parents about the danger and asked them to be prepared just in case and to not tell about it to anyone until something happened. They were confused at the sudden words of their son but they trusted him as he went to his room and to the secret room where he started to go through the grimoires he has as he looked at the spells in the book as he narrowed his eyes. 'That attack would've finished me if it had hit and the more problematic thing is that I don't even know if that mage is able to do more or not. What if he was only testing me? I don't have any information to draw any conclusions on this.' Lucas thought to himself as he frowned at the lack of information. He hoped that his boys were cautious, though he had given them training and taught them to be always cautious, they were still only human and they might relax while out on the patrol. 'It would be ideal to have Aslaug with me as she would be able to warn me about it and
Chapter 54
Lucas has wanted to return to his own territory after telling the royals about the warning, but Olivia wanted to talk with him after that so he decided to forego that plan for the moment as he has to follow the wishes of the princess above all as a member of the nobility after all. "Why did you wish to talk with me princess?" Lucas asked her respectfully. "I was curious about your plan to combat this new threat. I'm sure that you would've already come up with a plan of action after learning about the danger." Olivia said as she looked at him. "Yes, I suppose you are right. Though it isn't a real plan as much as it is just something that I came up with on the spot." Lucas said as he shook his head from side to side. "I see. I guess you want to go back and get your territory ready?" Olivia said as she smiled at him. "Yes, I still haven't told my parents about it yet since I wanted to inform you immediately." Lucas said to her seriously. "Then I shall not delay you any further, as
