Chapter 927: Royal Family's Secret Realm

Next day,

In the royal place,

"You are here."

King Stephen looked at the two young men in front of him and revealed a slight smile on his face.

Those two young men were none other than Ajax and Levi.

As the first place holder in the 'Champion's contest', Ajax could enter the royal family's 'Sacred pool' for an entire week.

Whereas, Levi, the second place holder could only enter the Sacred pool for a single day; however, his master Elek informed him that it would be very beneficial for Levi to enter even though it was just for a single day.

Moreover, Levi was also curious about the high-level resource of the Zrochester province. So, he travelled overnight from his master's secret realm to the royal family.

As for Ajax, he travelled early and waited for Levi because he knew Levi would come here for sure.

"Yes, your majesty. We are here for the Sacred Pool."

Hearing King Stephen's words, Ajax and Levi replied at the same time.

"Let's go."

Nodding his head, King Stephen stood from his seat as he asked Ajax and Levi to follow.

Soon, King Stephen, his old minister, Ajax and Levi entered deeper into the royal palace before stopping in front of an old, half-broken wall.

"Old minister, open the portal to the secret realm."

After stopping there, King Stephen asked the old man beside him to open a portal.

'Huh? A portal to the secret realm?'

Ajax and Levi were surprised when they heard King Stephen's words.

Even though they already knew that the royal family had a secret realm just like the six vagrant cultivators, they did not expect that the so-called 'Sacred Pool' would be in a secret realm.

What's more, the royal family had directly given the reward to them that was in their secret realm.

Actually, the owners of the secret realm didn't wish others to know about their secret realms much less invite them into the secret realm.

"Your majesty, the princess is still not here."

However, the old minister didn't open the portal directly; instead, he informed his daughter.

"I can't wait all day for her. If she doesn't arrive here within five minutes, let's just enter."

Even though he thought that he would not wait for her daughter, he still decided to wait for five minutes.

"Only if you don't mind, we will wait; otherwise, we can just enter."

Nevertheless, King Stephen didn't forget to ask Ajax and Levi just for a formality.

"No problem, your majesty."

Ajax and Levi didn't mind waiting for five minutes because they were the guests here.

"I am here."

They barely waited for one minute before they heard a soft voice from the distance that made Ajax and Levi turn their heads towards the owner of the voice.

The owner of the voice was a beautiful girl who was wearing bright blue coloured robes with golden borders.

Her hair was freely flowing in the wind as she elegantly ran towards them.

She was none other than the royal princess, Princess Daphne.

"Royal father, I am sorry, I am late."

When she reached the place, she glanced at Ajax for a moment before apologizing to her father for coming late.

"Whatever."

However, King Stephen didn't even bother to look at her as he continued, "Since everyone is here, let's open the portal to the royal family's secret realm."

Without wasting any time, King Stephen directly ordered the old man beside him to open the gate.

"Yes, your highness."

The old man nodded his head as he chanted something just like how the six vagrant cultivators used to chant before opening their secret realm.

While the old man was opening the portal, Princess Daphne was secretly observing Ajax because she had developed a crush on him and she felt Ajax must have developed a crush on her too.

However, when she saw that Ajax was not even bothering to look at her, she was a little disappointed.

'Why am I thinking about him? Even though he helped me get the inheritance of the summoner king from the inheritance land, it doesn't mean he has a crush on me.'

'All I need to focus on now is to increase my cultivation and leave this province as soon as possible.'

'Moreover, grandpa Lin said that as long as I learn cultivator's law, he could recommend me to someone in the other province. At the time, even my father couldn't do anything against my wishes.'

'And to learn the cultivator's law, the 'Sacred Pool' is the best place for me.'

Soon, Princess Daphne controlled her emotions as she focused on only cultivation.

The only thing she wants in her life is to leave Zrochester province and go as far away as possible from her father.

So, she stopped secretly glancing at Ajax and waited for the portal to open.

"Your name is Levi, right? Come forward."

While the old man was busy opening the portal to the secret realm, King Stephen turned his head towards Levi and called him.

"Yes."

Levi casually nodded his head as he walked forward.

Even though Stephen Draton was king, Levi learned about him and felt he had already given too much respect for him. So, he didn't show much respect.

At the same time, he was not rude because he knew that once King Stephen became angry, he could get killed in his hands.

"Here is your pass. Once you enter the Secret realm, you have to find the Sacred Pool and cultivate in it. After your two days are finished, you will be automatically kicked out of the secret realm."

"As for you Ajax, you can stay in the Secret Realm until the Sacred Pool disappears from the Secret realm. Once it disappeared, you will be automatically kicked out of the secret realm."

Similarly, King Stephen gave a small talisman to Ajax and his daughter, Princess Daphne.

"Your Highness, it's opened."

Soon, the old minister informed King Stephen.
