"How could you side with evil like those?" Daniel said as the hunched woman started to laugh out loud.
"My dear nephew who is eviler my queen or your greatest emperor the man you people are calling G.o.d the man who killed his own family my brother little X"
The hunched woman said but Daniel could see her red eyes under the hood.
"Why don't you say his name? Even after hundreds of years, Are you still afraid of him?"
Hearing Daniel, the old woman clenched her fists tightly but she quickly let out a laugh
"It doesn't matter what's matter is I'm here and he's not"
"But I'm here and that's enough"
Seeing the golden light appearing around Daniel and the sword made of light the old woman slightly dropped her jaw. Just like a flash Don's image appeared and disappeared before her in the form of Daniel.
************************
"Hail our King Daniel"
The people of Everlight saw the fight between their king and the old woman, the thunder and lighting around the two of them shocked the crowd as their king's power.
"Brother, are you seeing this? where are you? Knight where are you? "
Mervan saw the tears running on Great mother's face but he couldn't find any words to rea.s.sure her.
"Commander Ken it's all up to you"
*************************
"No no, it can't be I can't lose no not again not to his descendent"
The old woman started to blabber as blood flowed all over her. Even after so many years she still couldn't beat the King of Everlight.
"It's time you die! you old b.i.t.c.h"
As he said Daniel dashed towards her and swung his sword aiming at the old woman's neck
"No no please don't kill me have mercy I'm his sister HIS!!"
When Daniel heard the old woman he stopped his sword as suddenly a grin appeared on the old woman's face but before he could do anything he felt something piercing through his stomach.
"My KING!!!!!"
Thousands of voices echoed through the castle seeing Daniel get stabbed by the old woman.
Seeing the knife sticking out of his abdomen, Daniel let out a small smile as he pulled close the old woman by her neck
"I've said it's you die"
Daniel circulated all his bound energy to his fist and punched the old woman with all his might.
"NO!!!!"
The old woman screamed as she felt her heart being grasped by Daniel's hand but her scream suddenly turned into a mad laugh
"I've already done my part! you can't escape her she will come"
Daniel withdrew his b.l.o.o.d.y hand from the old woman's chest and saw her lifeless body falling.
However, before he could breathe a sigh Daniel could see a beautiful woman flying towards him. Daniel felt his body weakening by the poison on the old woman's knife
"seems it's indeed a lion cub won't be a dog" the woman said
"Queen Aathreya"
************************
(A few minutes earlier)
"Grandpa we don't...don't have mu tim" Maya started to shutter and misp.r.o.nounce words in fear when she saw King Daniel stabbed by the old woman.
"Come on come on "
"Rudhra starting up... loading..." suddenly a voice appeared from the machine as Ken's eyes went wide in surprise
"Its...its working Maya we did it"
The human-sized tablet like machine started to get brighter and brighter as it produced a loud buzzing sound
"What how oh great " Seeing the machine working Maya couldn't hold her tears anymore as she leaped towards the old man.
"Ken"
Suddenly in the room, the woman in white dress appeared as Maya let go of Ken and both of them bowed their heads a little to show their respect
"Great mother we did it, it's working"
The woman's eyes went wide in surprise however a sad expression appeared on her face
"Go before she gets here don't waste any more time"
"Grandpa I'm going to miss you " Maya said as she saw Ken start to walk towards the machine.
"Initiating the starting process...Welcome Commander Ken...please select the target time"
The emotionless voice sounded in their ears as Ken touched the b.u.t.tons and looked at Maya and the woman
"When you meet him say Le roi dragon triomphe toujours and Ken tell Cat missed her brother so much"
The machine started to light up brighter and brighter as Ken saw the tears coming out of Great mother's eyes and nodded his head
At the moment Daniel saw a bright light beam emerging from the castle towards the sky.
"What's what's happening?" Aathreya had a heavy feeling in her stomach when she saw the light beam and she looked at Daniel's grin on his face
"You think the Greatest Empire would fall before a sc.u.m li.. Huh"
Aathreya didn't want Daniel to finish what he was trying to say as she stabbed him with her sword through his heart
However, when she saw Daniel's face there was no struggle or sadness on his face but he let out a proud grin
"He beat you before and he will do it again, good luck facing Emperor Don b.i.t.c.h" when the moment the words left his mouth Daniel closed his eyes and embraced the death
Aathreya let go of the lifeless body of King Daniel
"Evan and Don left you a long time ago my child now it's the reign of Queen Aathreya"
*******************************
Don was now sitting on his throne and looking at Joel and beside Don Knight sat on his throne and Arrora stood beside Don.
"With or without your help I'm going to conquer Emir Joel"
But before don could finish Joel knelt before him
"I am honored to serve you, my lord"
During these two days, Joel noticed the kingdom growing and well as the powerful army Knight building. Every one of them was trained to the level that they could easily conquer a small city without a loss. Joel knew Emir was not a small city but hearing from the elves and dwarves Don just started to raise his army for a year. With just a year of time, Don gathered an army like this and Joel could see how powerful he will be in another five years or so.
Thinking about all of this, Joel decided to stick with this powerful man so he could get his revenge on the king of Emir as well as be a part of something great. Aside from all these reasons, the main reason he chose to work for Don is the dragon guarding the kingdom. When he first met the magnificent dragon Joel almost peed his pants in fear and the moment he heard the dragon was a part of Don's army, the deal was sealed for Joel. A dragon is paramount of existence in this world and it's working for Don made Joel tremble in fear.
"Good choi what the" Knight's voice was cut off by a huge thundering sound as a bright light of beam appeared out of nowhere inside the throne hall.
Everyone in the castle ran towards the throne room to see what's happening as Knight and Arrora stepped forward before Don like s.h.i.+elds
"What's happening me King?"
"Don are you teleporting someone here?"
Don could barely hear the shouting of the dwarves and Amaryll due to the thundering sound the light beam creating
"Cat did someone activate the array?"
Seeing Catalie appearing beside him Don asked the little girl and saw Catalie shaking her head.
"Where am I?"
Everyone heard a man's voice as the thundering sound and the light beam slowly faded away.
"Attack him men protect tha king" Stodemer didn't waste any time when he saw the old man stepping out of the light beam he leaped straight at him with his battle-ax in his hand.
Seeing the dwarf leaping towards him the old man flicked his wrist instinctively and everyone saw Stodemer's body went flying back and hitting one of the pillars behind him.
"Bound Energy"
Don mumbled under his breath when he saw the old man attacking Stodemar.
The moment everyone saw the old man sent Stodemar flying they took out their weapons and formed a defense formation but when the old man laid his eyes on the throne his legs refused to stand straight as he dropped on the ground
"My King I did it Maya Great mother I did it everyone I did it" Ken looked at the ceiling and let all his tears out
"Is he talking about you Don?" Knight asked.
"Who are you?" seeing the sudden appearance of this weird old man Don circulated his battle energy to capture him
Ken didn't hear Don as he continued to cry saying that he did it again and again.
"That's it " as he said Don started to control the swords and spears in the hall and aimed at the old man.
Hearing something coming at him Ken lowered his head and saw a bunch of pointy swords and spears flying towards him however he couldn't get his bound energy to stop those in other words his body refused to
"My King don't don't kill me I'm from Everlight" even though the old man started to shout his words didn't make any sense as Don continued to send the weapons at him aiming at his hands and legs.
Ken's mind went blank as the swords and spears got closer and closer
"Le roi dragon triomphe toujours!!Le roi dragon triomphe toujours"
"Brother STOP!!!"
The weapons fell on the ground as Don stopped controlling them when he heard Catalie screaming at him. Don could see the little girl's skin turned pale as she s.h.i.+vering
"How how do you know this?" Catalie asked as she was still trembling and looking pale
"You said it, Great mother"
"Huh?"
"Don I've had enough let's capture him I'll make him spill the beans"
Ken almost peed his pants when he saw the Great Knight he heard about in the stories started to walk towards him with an evil grin
"Let me explain I...I am coming from the future I was sent by your descendent my King"
