Chapter 123: Chapter : 123 : What We Came Here For!

In The Grimclaw Kingdow, Few Days Ago.

The air around Aiden shimmered with a soft, ethereal glow as a radiant scroll materialized before him, hovering in midair.

Arcane symbols danced along its surface, glowing faintly in hues of blue and gold. With a gentle flicker, the scroll unfurled on its own, revealing intricate pathways and hidden terrains marked in ink that seemed to shift and move like flowing rivers.

— THIS ENCHANTED MAP REVEALS THE LOCATION OF YOUR NEXT BEAST COMPANION. ONLY THOSE CHOSEN BY THE ULTIMATE BOND SYSTEM CAN DECIPHER ITS EVER-CHANGING PATHS. FOLLOW ITS GUIDANCE TO STRENGTHEN YOUR BOND AND UNCOVER NEW SECRETS.

—

The map showed two bepping dots on the map.

“Where is this?” Aiden asked the system.

—

“THE MYSTIC MAP IS POITING TOWARD THE HUMAN NATION, ALBINOS,/WHERE YOU’LL FIND YOUR TWO NEW BEAST COMAONION.”

—

“Hmm…” Aiden nodded.

—

“IS THEIR ANYTHING ELSE YOU LIKE TO KNOW?”

—

“No!” He replied.

The system closed. Aiden thought, *Albinos. The Human Nation. I don’t think I met a single human since I came here.*

He then thought of something, and went out of his room. He walked toward King Kragg’s chamber.

He knocked on the door, “Sir… May I come in?”

“Yes. Please. The door is open, son.” Kragg’s deep voice came out of the other side.

Aiden entered.

He saw him, sitting infront of his desk. He wasn’t in his armor. No, he was wearing a traditional royal clothing.

“Son…” Kragg said, urging him to speak.

“I want to go to Albinos.” Aiden said casually.

“Oh… Albinos. The Human Capital?” Kragg asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Yes.” Aiden confirmed as he added, “As I told before, their is a greater adventure waiting for me and I believe, it’s Albinos.”

Kragg thought for a moment, before replying, “I respect your wished.”

“Thank you.” Aiden said, bowing his head slightly toward him.

Then Kragg smirked, “Son, lucky for you… We have a friendly relationship with the ruler of the kingdom.”

“Really?”

“Yes. All I have to do is write a letter, and you will have nothing worry about.” Kragg said.

“Thank you very much, Sir.” Aiden said, thanking him.

“No need to thank me. It is but just a small thing compared to what you have done for us.” Kragg said, as he added, “And yes… You can call me Father.”

“F-Father… Thank you very much. I appriciate it.”

—

Present!

The Queen met his eyes. “Then we fight together.”

Aiden smiled faintly. “No…”

Everyone gasped. Seraphina and Venya looked toward him, but didn’t comment.

“I-I beg your pardon, Sir.” Queen Alethea asked, baffled.

Kael barked, as he smashed his hands on the table, again, “So, you’re going to side with the demons then?”

“Kael… Please.” Renn said, before turning toward Aiden, “Sir… Can you please explain yourself? ”

Everyone looked toward him.

Aiden smiled softly, then with a grin he said, “The prophecy said I’ll be a bridge. So… My work is not to fight I believe.”

“My Lord…” Both Selvara and Venya whispered, feeling proud, leaning toward him.

Varra blushed. Her heart skipped a bit. *He is perfect. I just love him. Marry me, please.*

The Queen smiled, “Alright then. Child Of Prophecy. I’ll be watching you.”

The Queen then looked toward the others and asked, “Do anyone have any further questions?”

Everone looked pleasedp. Kael now looked, less angry.

Suddenly, Serica raised an hand. Varra at the same time was startled.

Queen raised an eyebrow, “Please, Serica Veylan”

Aiden looked toward her, smilling, “Ohh… Go on.”

“Yes” Serica said excitedly, her boobs bouncing with her, “Can you please marry me and my friend Varra here?”

Vara’s face burned, standing up immidiately, startled, “Serica! W-what are you saying?”

Others looked at them, dumbfounded.

Kairi burat out laughing, clutching her stomach. “Surprises after the other.”

“Oh my God…” Kael said clutching his head as he stormed out of the room.

“Kael…” Renn called, “Wait for me.” She bowed toward the other, before leaving.

“Kael…”

“This is certainly accurate.” Ravenn mutterd to himself.

“Why… You love him, don’t you?” Serica teased, smilling seductively toward him.

“No… I… I mean…” Varra started fitgetted with her fingers.

“Huh!” Selvara and Venya shouted at the same time.

“Stupid Humans, know your place.” Selvara sbouted, hooking her arms around Aiden’s arm.

“Yes. What Master said.” Verra added.

“Ohh dear… We won’t just keep him for ourself.” Serica teased, smilling audectively.

Selvara growled.

The queen smiled, “Sir, what you say?”

Aiden smiled toward Serica and Varra, “Well… I did stole her kiss.”

“And you need to take responsibity for that.” Serica said, pointing a accusing finger toward him, yet smilling.

“Serica… Stop.” Varra asked shyly.

“This is getting fun.” Sylas muttered to Sylara.

“Seems like it.” Sylara replied, leaning toward him.

“Yes… Stop.” Verica shouted.

Aiden started laughing, hard, “Okay… Okay… I accept.”

“W-what?” Varra gasped. She felt her legs giving up on her, falling to the floor. She felt as if a weight was lifted of her shoulder.

“How dare you?” Selvara glared toward him.

“My Lord’s wishes is Venya’s wishes.” Venya said.

“Why you little…” Seraphina glared toward Venya.

Serica’s eyes glittered with victory.

“Then it’s settled!” she sang, throwing both arms around Aiden’s neck in triumph.

“W-Wait—Serica—!” Varra tried to stop her, but it was far too late.

WHUMP!

Aiden staggered backward as Serica leapt at him, hugging him so hard that the air left his lungs. Her hair whipped around them like a comet’s tail while hearts might as well have popped in the air above her head.

“Child Of Prophecy! My hero! My fate!” she declared dramatically.

Varra turned red from head to toe, “Serica! Have you completely lost it?! You can’t just—!”

Selvara stomped forward, wings twitched, fangs flashing. “Y-You human maniac! Get off my Lord!”

“Master belongs to Venya too…” Venya muttered under her breath, folding her arms and looking away, the picture of reluctant acceptance.

Aiden tried to breathe. “I—uh—Serica, you’re crushing my—”

“Your what? Your heart.” Serica teased, squeezing harder in pure glee.

“His lungs!” Selvara yelled, prying at her arm. “Let go, or I’ll freeze your ridiculous face!”

Serica grinned down at her. “Aww, jealous, little demon?”

“I-I’m not jealous! Idiot!” Selvara’s entire face went crimson as she tugged harder.

“You just—look ridiculous—hanging off My Lord like that!”

At this point, the entire council room had descended into chaos.

Sylas leaned back on his chair, chuckling. “So this is the legendary Child of Prophecy. Quite the ladies’ man.”

Sylara smirked beside him, looping her arm around Sylas right hand. “Mmm, we should protect him before they tear him apart.”

Aiden blinked, surrounded by clingy arms and angry eyes. “Uh… little late for that—”

Kairi burst out laughing so hard she nearly fell from her chair. “By the gods, this meeting is better than the battlefield!”

Queen Alethea finally rose from her throne, her elegant composure unshaken by the absurdity around her. She looked at the entire scene—Aiden half-buried under Serica’s dramatics, Selvara shouting, Venya sighing, Varra covering her face, and everyone else barely holding in their laughter—and smiled with royal grace.

“Sir Aiden,” she said warmly, “please take care of the… mess you create.”

“Y-Yes, Your Majesty,” Aiden replied helplessly from the pile of chaos.

The Queen chuckled softly and swept from the room, leaving behind an echo of gentle amusement.

Kairi followed after her, still laughing. “I needed that! My stomach hurts!”

Ravenn followed after them, “Sir… It was a pleasure to talk to you.”

Sylas and Sylara exchanged a look and grinned. ’We’ll keep an eye on them,”Sylas said.

“Please do,” the Queen replied without turning.

As they left, Sylara gave Aiden a playful wink and tugged his arm a little tighter around Sylas before whispering, “Try not to explode, Child Of Prophecy.”

Aiden could only sigh. “I make no promises.”

Selvara huffed, crossing her arms, cheeks puffed. “M-My Lord, you’re enjoying this too much!”

“Am I?” he teased, smiling gently.

She stomped her foot. “Y-You are! Baka!”

Venya patted her shoulder gently. “At least My Lord is happy, Master.”

Selvara froze mid-rant, then looked at Aiden’s grin and turned away quickly, ears twitching. “Fine. But only because he is lucky that I love him.”

Serica, still hanging on him, raised her hand triumphantly. “So! Where’s the wedding, huh?”

“SERICA!” Everyone shouted in unison.

—

Outside the door, Luna, Lysandra carrying Leona, Thristle, Arisha, Nyxion, Vegia, Zera, Princess Seraphina, Nivara Nystovia stood.

They saw the others coming out of the champer. They bowed when they saw the Queen.

They they watched the others.

“Are they all smilling?” Luna asked, confused.

“Did something happned inside?” Nivara asked.

“Whatever it is. Heart Lord is the reason.” Nyxion said, proud.

“Absolutely.” Thristle added.

Both Seraohina and Nivara smiled nervously.

“Mummy…” Leona cupped Lysandra’s cheek with one hand, asked, “What happened to Daddy?”

Lysandra smiled soflty, kissing on her forehead, “Sweethearts, Daddy is alright.”

“Maybe we should enter and see.” Zerra proposed.

“Should we?” Arisha asked.

“What that idiot did now?” Vegia muttered.

“Yes.” Seraphina said, opening the door without warning.
