The Author Is Speechless

Chapter 82: His patience

The royal family castles were divided into three different sections. The first and the most luxurious one belonged to king Azadevel. So, the place Viktor was invited in was the king's castle.

I can already guess the grasp of the situation without seeing his book. He wants to keep the peace matter hidden by bribing me with a lot of money. But sadly, he knows nothing of my plan.

A small but luxurious dinner party was held inside the king's castle for Viktor. The king thought that the recent temple incident would make him change his mind about the king, so he had to bribe him with sweet words or money. So he immediately invited Viktor to his castle to have a conversation with him.

"Adonis, I won't take any carriage today. Let's just teleport."

"Yes, master."

Adonis cast a teleportation spell below their feet and they quickly teleported in front of the king's castle in a matter of time. The royal guards were shocked to see both of them pop out of nowhere. So they ran inside to inform the king's butler about their quick arrival.

The female lead was declared as a crown princess without any problem in my book at this stage. But I did a little fun experiment to see how fast she can change and summon that demon guardian.

The king was inside the guardian with tons of sweets. There was nobody around him but Viktor clearly saw a royal shadow standing behind him. It was a member of his father's team but he decided to stay quiet and see.

"It's an honour to meet you, your majesty."

"Oh! Isn't it our eldest son of Harvort? Take a seat. Enjoy a warm cup of tea."

"Thank you for your generosity, your majesty."

He prepared the things that are known to be my favourite. He really knows my taste well. Or should I say, the royal shadow knows it pretty well.

"You know about the new head priest of the temple right? What are your thoughts about the prophecy?"

"I think it's best to follow the goddess' will for the time being. It's not like the crown prince has to get married this soon. And you're still young."

The king remained silent after hearing Viktor's words and said, "You were present in the ceremony that day. Can you tell me exactly what happened that day? The information I've obtained from different sources seems to be misleading. There are flaws mixed with lies. So, I'm not sure whether I should believe them or not."

Oh? He's trying to play safe.

"I was indeed in the prayer room that time when the incident occurred. The crown prince stood up and insulted the goddess's prophecy. After declaring war on the face of her holy statue, he took the hands of lady Elena Pearlroy and promised her the princess crown. What was it called? They swear on the name of their true love."

The truth was revealed and the king became furious to hear what happened that day.

"Ahem! He can't just declare anyone as the crown princess without my seal and permission. And the imperial family depends on the goddess only. I can't let this happen. Viktor, will you watch over the crown prince for a while until the situation calms down?"

"I'll be glad to hear your desperate request, your majesty. Leave this matter to me."

The butter came inside the guardian and informed the king that the dinner table was fully prepared. So, both Viktor and the king went inside the royal dining hall to have a meal. The table was long and it was filled with various types of dishes and sweets. The dining hall was filled with the aroma of delicious sweets and spicy seafood that Viktor liked.

Wow! What an arrangement!

Suddenly, the crown prince came inside with Elena by ignoring the royal guards' warning. Nobody was allowed inside while the king and Viktor were having a secret conversation.

"Father, I've come to have a word with you."

The king stayed silent while holding his fork. He was so vexed but he kept his cool in front of Viktor.

The king asked calmly, "Why did you come here? Didn't you hear the guards saying that we're having an important conversation here?"

"Father, this is something more important than your conversation with that lowly foreigner. I'm here to introduce my lover to you. This is Elena Pearlroy. She's so intelligent, lovely, kind and I love her so much. Please consider our request. The goddess isn't someone who will overlook our love."

Viktor nearly let his laughter out of his mouth and all the gaze of the prince turned to his face. But he kept his eyes fixed on his meal to enjoy the dinner.

"Ahem, father. Please give her a chance."

Elena secretly cast her charming magic all over the room and the gaze on her became different. The king couldn't let her keep standing, so he gave her his own seat to let her enjoy the meals she wanted.

Viktor left his head and saw the bright red eyes of Elena and smiled a little. "Tell me, Miss Elena, how old are you?"

"I'm 19 years old."

"I see. You're still a child."

The king was so charmed by her that he sat right beside her to help her serve dinner. She was acting like a queen already.

"I didn't know a small stomach of yours can hold that portion of food. Do you have a demon inside your stomach or something?"

Elena was stunned to hear the word demon from Viktor's mouth. The food from her fork fell on her excessively luxurious dress. So, she became annoyed.

"Ugh! It was my favourite dress. Now, what am I going to do!"

After that, Viktor just watched the drama she pulled out and snatched more than five dresses from the queen's closet with tons of gold coins.

He was left speechless.

So he thought, "Am I going to wait for her to summon the damn demon lord so that she can woo around and throw some tantrums? Do I have that level of patience?"

Viktor went home with Adonis by questioning his pride and patience.

Somewhere in Galaxy 21/KI . Planet no. 4.

It was a fallen world with no sign of life. There was no tree, no water, not even clean air to breathe. A sandstorm was passing through the abandoned and destroyed skyscrapers. Layers of dust had formed on the cars which were lined up on a broken bridge in the middle of a deserted lifeless city. A dead world was breathing harshly.

"Midas, do you really think that was necessary?" The guardian of poison asked the guardian of greed by following his steps from behind in the desert. The sandstone was so harsh that they were having trouble walking a straight path.

"Do you really think they can save the world? Elesis is dreaming too big. And no matter how far you run away, you can't escape the eyes of the creator. So, it's best to make a deal with heaven guardians and save our life for some time."

"But, are you sure they won't chase us? How can you make a deal with the heaven guardians? Don't you know what are they"

"I know exactly what they are. They aren't living beings. They are something else."

Midas covered his face with a red scarf and went inside an abandoned building to take shelter for the night. The building was made of gold inside and its floor was made of red ruby. The design of the building looked like it was a shopping complex. But the amount of gold used was out of this world. So, Midas thought that gold lost its value after humans were annihilated.

It means nothing now.

"Midas, how long are you planning to stay here? We don't know what the time flow is, and we're out of the habitable zone. I don't think we can find food here."

Midas sat on the dusty floor in a corner and said, "I still have one portal stone to earth."

"You mean the planet where Elerous lived?"

"Yes. But I don't think I can use it now. Its mana level is too low. Even if we find a way to earth now, I don't think we can reach the reality of time flow. We will end up all the way back in 1940 or 1950."

Misad looked at the portal stone and saw the date written on it was slowly changing. So he thought Elerous was born between 1990-2025 by measuring the mana level. It was a portal stone that he stole from Elesis's room right before the guardians attacked.

"How long do we have to wait here?" The guardian of poison asked.

"10 years. It will take about 10 years to recharge the portal stone. And we can reach 2025 if it's fully charged. So, we will leave after 10 years."

"I see. Then let's go to deep sleep somewhere safe. Somewhere on the top mountains might be a safe place."

So, both of them started to walk again and looked for a mountain to rest for 10 years to let the portal stone charge. Because they need to keep themselves safe from the hands of heaven guardians as long as they can. It would be suicide to stay on a planet for more than one thousand years.
