Anon sat in the carriage, his eyes covered with a magical black cloth that blocked his sight. A female Elf soldier who had tied Anon's hands sat in front of him, continuously staring at him.
Suddenly, the elf soldier raised her hand and started waving it in front of Anon. Seeing that Anon had no reaction, she stopped waving.
"Do you want me to wave back at you?" Anon asked with a smile.
"This is impossible. How can you even see me? That Miram cloth should block all of your vision. Even if you have a skill that lets you see through objects, how are you able to see through that cloth?" the girl asked with a confused expression.
"I can't. I am just sensing the heat that your body is giving off," Anon answered.
"What? H-How exactly are you doing that?" the elf girl asked with a curious and confused expression.
"Don't worry, luv, you will get there one day. You are not here because someone told you to, are you? You chose to come with me on your own, didn't you?" Anon spoke with a smile.
Suddenly, silence filled the carriage for 5 seconds, and only the sound of wooden wheels rolling on the ground could be heard.
"You said something about 'being strong' back in the paradise mansion. Didn't you?" the elf soldier questioned.
"I did..." Anon replied.
"Do you think you will be able to go through the trial without getting punished for at least 100 years in prison, after you murdered one of the biggest traders in the Elven kingdom, along with his whole family?" the elf soldier asked.
"Hey... I left his wife alive," Anon spoke.
"Yes, and now she is going to be the reason for your punishment. You could've killed her as well and escaped from the house, but you didn't. Why?" the elf soldier asked.
Anon smiled at her and spoke in a carefree tone, "Because I am strong."
Screeeechhh
Suddenly, the carriages came to a halt. In front of the carriages was a big white castle, made out of White Glock Marble, which was very rare and expensive. The castle was built around a very big garden containing big trees of rare fruits and freshly moist medicinal grass on the ground.
Children played in the garden while their parents watered the plants and cut the grass to the right size. In the middle of the garden, a straight path was carved out of marble for anyone to go to the castle.
"Everyone, step down from the carriages. We have arrived at the castle," Faith's voice resounded from outside.
"Let's see how strong you really are," the elf soldier said as she opened the gate, and Anon stepped down from the carriage.
As soon as Anon stepped down, he inhaled and exhaled the air around him.
Snifffffff
"Hah... What a refreshing feeling," Anon said as he felt the warm mana swirling around his body.
"Keep walking," the elf soldier said as she touched Anon slightly.
"Yes, ma'am," Anon said as he started walking towards the castle.
As soon as he stepped upon the marble floor, he felt the presence of two guards on his left and right. He kept feeling this presence as he moved towards the castle.
"Halt your steps," two guards who protected the main gate of the castle shouted.
'This path is guarded by a total of 100 guards,' Anon thought as a smile appeared on his face.
"We bring a Level-Three Threat, we need an instant Trial," Faith explained to the guards.
"You may enter," the guards spoke.
Daarrrr
Suddenly the giant marble gates opened on their own.
"Commander Faith is entering inside the Royal Court," the two guards shouted together.
Everyone entered inside the castle's Royal court. The view inside the royal court was very different - it was huge. The Royal Court's ceilings were very high, and the walls were engraved with ancient images and texts. On the sides of the Royal court, there were big seating arrangements made for the audience.
Thousands of normal people sat on each side, and in front of them sat the Royal Ministers of the Royal Court. Beside every Royal Minister, there were two guards standing to enforce the Queen's orders at once. In the middle of the Royal Court, there was a big Throne made out of emerald stones.
An elf girl with brown hair, an average figure, and a very cute face sat on the throne. She was wearing royal clothes and had a big crown made out of vines and gems on her head. She was the present Queen of the Elven Kingdom, Jessica's Sister - FIONA.
Four men stood on each side of the throne. Two of them were the best soldiers of the elven kingdom, who protected the Queen. After them, came the two best mages of the kingdom, there to grant her wishes without any delay and to act as the speakers of the royal court. Following them were the Healers, ready in case the queen got hurt and prepared to help her instantly. Finally, there were two maids attending to the queen's every need, from a glass of water to the clothes she would wear in the royal court that day.
Faith and her soldiers, who stood behind Anon, immediately went down to their knees and bowed to Fiona.
"Long Live the Queen," all of them spoke at once, but one of them didn't bow, and that was Anon. He just stood there and looked directly at the queen, even though his eyes were sealed. The queen could still feel his gaze.
"Who is this kid, that dares to stand before me?" the queen questioned with a smile.
"You are standing before the Queen of the Elven Kingdom, kid. Bow down and show your gratitude," one of the mages announced in a very loud voice, looking at Anon.
Anon didn't bow and continued to look towards the throne.
"Commander Faith, Is this kid deaf?" another mage asked.
'What are you doing, Jule? Just bow down. I am trying to help you, and you are making it worse,' Faith thought as she looked at Anon with an intense expression. The elf soldier also looked at Anon with a shocked expression. For the past 40 years, she had been inside this court several times but had never seen a single person who didn't bow before the Queen.
