Chapter 103: Reactions
In the Pride Kingdom, there was a man wearing a full black suit kneeling in front of the king, telling him about the information they received.
"What? You're telling me the Lust Kingdom managed to eliminate a slime king without a single casualty?" The king widened his eyes, shocked. This was unprecedented, so he couldn't help but clench his fists.
His pride couldn't take it because this was a matter of world-first.
They all knew how dangerous a slime king could be.
"There was a man who actually sealed the slime king in one place, so the army could launch an endless onslaught until the slime king died. And he happened to be the man that Your Majesty had asked us to investigate."
When he mentioned a man, the king's expression brightened as he asked, "Who?"
"His Highness, the Sixth Prince's teacher, Albert Gran."
"!!!" The king and all his ministers widened their eyes, staring at the man in disbelief.
"What did you say?" The king was trembling. Albert wasn't supposed to have the strength to oppose a slime king, so it was impossible for him to come closer and seal the slime. This thought made the report look fake.
"Not only that, but we have discovered that he has utilized two elements. First, it's the Space Element that allows him to seal the slime king. The second element is fire.
"According to our information, during the fight, he used flaming bats that were capable of destroying the slime's tentacles even though the latter had been covered with golden light."
Unfortunately for him, no one saw Albert using his Bonk Light because the Magic Circle was on the bottom of the pit. This meant Albert's identity was still protected to a certain extent.
And this was what Lilith had been doing. She released a certain amount of information just to make Albert so precious to the point all kingdoms wanted to possess him instead of killing him.
"I see. No wonder Yale can use both of his elements. His teacher was supposed to be weaker than him when they first met, so we should assume that he actually used that time to perfect his ability to use both elements simultaneously.
"In other words, he has been using the time he got bullied into getting stronger." The king mumbled, looking Albert in the new light. After a while, he asked, "What's about the Gran Family? Have you found them yet?"
"We haven't. Even the Lust Kingdom won't release this information."
"Hurry up and find them. We need to find this Gran Family." The king raised his voice, demanding him with a strict tone.
"Y-yes." The man in black panicked for a second and explained, "We assume that the Gran Family is actually a low-level noble without any plot of land. And when the kingdom knows about this news, I'm afraid they're going to hide them. There is also a possibility of it being a noble family. The family treated him as such due to him being a demon instead of a human. So, he might be a hybrid between human and demon."
"I don't care about your assumption. I only want to know about his background! Understood?"
"Yes.' The man in black nodded furiously before lowering his head. "I'll immediately search for the Gran Family. But before that, it seems His Highness Yale has become a C Rank Adventurer. He's raising his rank so fast that no one can believe it, even though some of the achievement comes from his teacher.
"As per your order, we monitored him this whole time, so we couldn't find any details about him."
"Hmph." The king harrumphed and waved his hand. When the man talked about Yale, his anger disappeared, knowing Yale might be the successor to this throne.
After thinking for a while, he stated, "Make sure that idiotic couple won't leave their home and plot any kinds of assassination. If they try to take revenge, you've my authorization to kill them. If any of you don't like this decision, you may step up."
Although the king abruptly made this decision, not a single minister actually raised an objection. They all knew the worth of someone who could wield two elements, let alone if there were a teacher and a student.
They could get them both. If Yale could become the ruler of this country with his teacher coming to the royal court, the Pride Kingdom would surely rise to its peak.
Suddenly, a minister raised his hand, not to object to his decision but to give an awareness of the current situation. "Your Majesty. It is in my belief that we need to resolve the problem with the Lust Kingdom. Or else, they're going to get them."
The king frowned, almost forgetting the fact he had sent Yale to them just because he wanted Yale to grow up. Although he had accomplished the initial goal, if the Lust Kingdom snatched them, it would be troublesome.
Hence, the king contemplated for a moment and said, "Take care of it No, I, personally, will go there! Send the word that I will visit the succubus queen in a week."
"Yes." The ministers lowered their heads, receiving the order.
Many kingdoms actually made a ruckus about this.
It was especially true with the Gluttony Kingdom.
Renee was kneeling on the red carpet with her head down. Before her was a male and a female sitting on their throne.
They were her mother and father.
"What have you done? You had all that chance to make Yale yours, but you didn't do a single thing. Were you insane?!" The mother frowned, glaring at her.
Renee didn't say a single thing. She simply closed her eyes and received whatever she threw at her. Although she was sad about her decision, she didn't regret it.
"Love can be nurtured with time. But you You threw away that chance and even promised him not to meet him anymore using that Sacred Duel. You should know that the Pride Kingdom takes the Sacred Duel seriously, right?! What an idiot daughter you are!" The woman kept spewing all kinds of facts while throwing some insults.
There wasn't a single word from Renee. She was still a girl at the same age as Yale. Even if she had a second chance, she would still choose the same decision.
While she was looking down, her father finally opened her mouth. His tone was deep and his words were soft. However, it pierced her heart the most.
"Renee Look at me, Dear."
Renee bit her lips and raised her head, staring at the handsome golden-haired man with sharp red eyes.
"Did you regret it?" He asked with a poker face.
However, Renee could feel the care in his stare. Renee clenched her fists and lowered her head again, saying, "No."
Her father closed his eyes for a moment and said with a gentle tone, giving his judgment. "You're not allowed to go out of your mansion anymore until further notice."
Renee didn't say a single thing, but she was grateful to her father. At the very least, she avoided the death sentence, jail, or any other stuff. She was spared with house arrest.
Obviously, her mother didn't share the same sentiment. "What?!"
She rose from her seat. Anger was clearly reflected in her eyes.
"She has completely cut off her relationship with Yale. Do you think this is acceptable? He's someone who wields two elements, and his strength grows rapidly. His teacher is more fearsome than that kid. And you're letting this kid, who's ruined the entire thing, with just a house arrest?"
"That's enough." He raised his hand, stopping her. After a while, he finally glared at her.
His bloodshot eyes were emanating killing intent as if telling her to sit down.
She was stunned for a moment and finally took her seat.
"I've decided. I won't hear any other opinion."
The same as the Gluttony Kingdom, the Risourin Kingdom also took this matter seriously.
Sulty Town's guard captain, Galahan, the man who met Alisa when she visited this town, pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed, "Seriously To think the man who Alisa tried to chase back then was someone this capable.
"The top brass is angry because of this matter even though they would have done the same if they faced this problem back then.
"And a slime king huh Seeing how the Lust Kingdom actively protects him, I'm afraid he's going to help the Lust Kingdom when we go to war with them.
"Someone who can seal a slime king will certainly be a capable person." He let out a long sigh, having a headache just thinking about this matter.
Last but not least, there was one big movement coming from the neighboring country of the Risourin Kingdom. They also shared the border with the Lust Kingdom, so they needed to get more serious about this.
They were none other than the Holy Kingdom. As someone who directly judged that seven deadly sins were bad, they obviously stationed themselves in the front line, making sure that they showed everyone their virtues.
And in their capital city, specifically inside the biggest temple in the world, a woman and an old man were standing face to face.
The old man wore a white coat, complimenting his white hair. Meanwhile, the woman had blonde hair and light blue eyes.
The old man suddenly opened his mouth. "There's a shining star in the northwest. This star will bring a great change in the continent."
"I believe this star is the person we've heard of earlier." The woman stated.
"Yes. However, this star why does it look similar to you?" The old man asked while furrowing his eyebrows.
"Similar?" The woman squinted her eyes, growing a bit suspicious.
"Yes."
"As in a person with a great heart?"
"No."
"You're not telling me he comes from another world like me, right?"
"I'm afraid this is also a possibility." He answered with a calm expression. "There is a possibility that he's coming from the same planet as you, Saintess Elizabeth, along with your friend, Hero Jason Simamora, Great Sage Luo Han, Magic Empress or the so-called Magical Girl Hiraoka Mai, and Sniper John Chadman."
"" She fell silent for a moment and asked, "What is his name and appearance again?"
"His name is Albert Gran apparently. We haven't confirmed whether this Gran Family is a noble family or not. As for his appearance, he's a Demon Dog with yellow fur. According to our information, he's wielding a wooden bat."
"A dog with yellow fur and holding a wooden bat" She fell silent for a moment, facepalmed.
"Do you happen to know his identity?"
"I don't know him, but I think I know him."
"Which one?"
"We have this thing called meme back in our world. Many people use this meme like a few times a day, so it's quite famous. The meme is where a dog hits another dog I'm not sure about the breed, but whatever. That dog hits the other dog and releases a sound 'Bonk' with each hit.
"And if he's this kind of I mean, if he's this bonk dog, his power is very effective against someone horny. After all, this bonk is to hit someone horny Even though there's another description that tells you that it's to sex. I mean, the original description.
"Either way, if he's what I'm thinking, whether it's the slang or the original description, his power is truly related to the Lust Kingdom, especially the succubus."
The old man gulped down as he felt the situation was worse than he thought.
"I see. He's someone who's worshiped by many people a few times a day. And his power is extremely effective against the Lust Kingdom. He must be someone with great power. If this is the case, we should get him. If he can use his power for the goods, the Lust Kingdom will bask in a new light."
"Worshiped? What? I think you misunderstand my words"The woman's eyebrows twitched. But seeing the old man who didn't seem to be listening to her anymore, she shrugged and said, "Well, whatever. You get the idea."
