"It's TimeTraveler." "Why is TimeTraveler on the king's side?" "Didn't TimeTraveler join rebel army?" "Looks at the forums, you idiot" "Doesn't that mount resembles the beast on the gold coin?" "*Gasp* Level-300 legendary+ grade beast?"
The battlefield engulfs in the murmuring of the players as Leon slowly landed beside Mirella with Wil sitting on top of it.
"You are a bit late but thanks for standing up beside me," spoke Mirella as she pulled the spear out of her leg.
Looking at one of the notifications, Wil sighed, "if not for the Duke banning me from his region, I would have used the teleportation formation to travel to the capital long ago."
*Ding. Duke Nukegan banned you from the city of Blackburn. Entering the city without permission will be subjected to imprisonment.
"Nukegan?" Mirella frowned as she stared at the corpse that was in the hands of a soldier standing far away, and apologized in a low tone, "it's my fault. Upon discovering the aura of Leon, I ran off my mouth with bragging that might lead the traitor to do that. Using the authority of King, I'm hereby lifting the ban on you."
*Ding. The ban on you has been lifted.
"Heal"
Placing a hand on the shoulder and healing her to full health, Wil replied with a smile, "It doesn't matter anymore. What matters is that I'm here and your majesty is safe and sound."
Suddenly, he received a notification.
*Ding. You received a private message from Supreme Master.
"Open notifications."
Looking at the holographic screen, Wil clicked on the latest notification and opened the message, sent by Supreme Master, who stepped aside and hid behind a muscular NPC to make sure not to be visible to Wil.
Supreme Master: We have already chosen it before you logged in. I hope this won't get in the way of our friendship.
Upon reading the message, a frown appeared on Wil at first but he quickly hid it as he thought, "convincing everyone in such a short time isn't easy for anyone. Looks like Supreme Master has a lot of influence in the alliance. The most troublesome part is that he informed after taking a decision.
Even if Aster isn't around, he can inform Mountain Rock to relay the message to Aster but he didn't do that. Aster isn't enough. I need to hurry up with my plans and bring the gang to the game and…"
"Younger brother" "Prince Time Traveler" "Hello…" A sweet voice disturbed his thoughts and brings him back to reality. "Ah! Yes?"
"Are you in your thinking mode, again? Look at the situation, will you…"
Wil quickly bowed, "I apologize, your majesty." In response, Mirella shook her head with a sigh, "I told you many times. You really need to work on that bad habit. You never know when…"
Looking at her, a piece of data actually lecturing like a real elder sister, a sense of uneasiness appeared inside him despite smiling on the outside. He quickly cut off her lecturing, "Uhh… Your majesty, how about finish the things here…"
"Younger brother, I need you to do something for me."
"Order it, your majesty. What should I do?" answered Wil.
"I want you to take care of East Ocean City," spoke Mirella, issuing a quest.
*Ding, You received a quest.
Description: The king wishes you to support General Gerrad, and fend off the enemies that invaded East Ocean City.
Reward: Unknown
Accept?
"Supporting Gerrad? That means this quest is for fighting against NPCs. If I accept this quest and go away, my other quest of helping this chic against the rebellion will be failed."
As soon as he realized the point, Wil tried to convince her, "but, your majesty…"
"Brother, don't waste time and get going." Before he even gets to speak further, Mirella cut him off and ordered him to go.
Not willing to let go of the bountiful rewards, Wil stepped down from the mount and spoke, "Your majesty, let Leon stay here and help you out."
"Fine." As Mirella gave a nod of approval, Wil accepted the quest and spoke to the lion as he caressed its mane, "buddy, you will protect his majesty, and kill her enemies.
Upon hearing him, Leon made a low moaning sound while nudging Wil with its head as if it tries to complain that it wants to stay with him but Wil ordered it again before sending a message to Supreme Master.
Time Traveler: Well, let's just treat this as an event, then. But, I hope you won't do such a thing in the future…
Supreme Master, who was read the message, gritted his teeth, "Dammit. Are we his lackeys or something?"
Exhaling one long breath, Supreme Master replied with a Yes and thanks.
Meanwhile, after saying goodbye to the both of them, Wil started running towards the city to go to the temple, and teleport to East Ocean city via teleportation formation which was the only one besides the one at Blackburn city and East Ocean City, is working.
As Wil disappeared from its view, Leon turned its attention towards the stupefied enemies and let out a mighty roar to summon ten heroic beasts from the wild zone, ranging from level-150-200.

Merton Sea;
"At first, I thought it was some legendary creature. But, now that I look closely, it is indeed Acke Llyne's pet. Maybe, my memory is failing because it's been a long time since I last saw it," commented Archangel Nebula, watching the battlefield. "That pup of Artemis Empire's guardian beast Leo grown this big. But, it shouldn't be this big, right?"
"It mutated again," answered Raziel in a tone of displeasure while his concentration was on unconscious Rikilda Llyne, more precisely on her bulging stomach, which was steadily growing fast for each second.
"Oh! Double mutation? That's rare in this peaceful world. Well, I guess our Pegallio is lazy…" Nebula tried to joke around a bit but looking at the expression on Raziel, he placed his attention in a specific direction and spoke, "the fetus is now 30 weeks, 2 days. Don't worry. It will take time."
"Cut it out and explain to me what is it, Nebula."
Staring into his eyes, Nebula replied, "Then, do as I have said before. Make an oath that you won't interfere until the battle ends."
As Raziel fell into silence, not willing to make an oath, Nebula further said, "fine then, at least promise that you won't interfere until the baby is born. I will even let you break this barrier and brainwash those citizens. This is my final offer, Raziel. I can't compromise more than this."
Having no other option, Archangel Raziel nodded, "fine. In the name of our late king, Adam, I, Raziel Blain, son of Azrael, making the oath that I won't interfere until the fetus in the womb of Rikilda Llyne, born."
As soon as he made an oath, his neck was bound by a golden chain, and a smile appeared on Archangel Nebula.
Pulling aside the collar, Nebula then showed the golden chain around his neck, "honestly, it wasn't a part of my plan. Rikilda forced me to make an oath. I hope you understand."
"Quit talking nonsense and tell me, now," Raziel growled at him as if he wants to tear him apart.
"Very well…" Gazing at the horizon, Nebula answered, "The prophecy of Gaia, Raziel.
As the angel of war walks on Gaia, the world plunges into the war, the demons rise from the netherworld and the heaven once again, will be awakened, restoring the natural order."
"The resurrection of Fallen Angel Gadreel…" Raziel gasped, taking a step back.

Half an hour later;
In the outskirts of East Ocean city, Wil was in a battle against Zuweth's army while reuniting with Evie (SnowDew) and his lackeys from the Scarlet guild, leading small guilds from various cities that are participating.
With Wil joining the party, the tables were quickly turned over, and within 30 minutes, the allies outnumbered the enemies by three to one, which boosted the allies' will power.
"Argh" The enemy's general screamed in pain as a couple of arrows pierced his leg.
Forcing himself to stand on the ground with the support of a sword, the general roared at Wil in anger, "a lowly immortal from other world is defeating me. Just who the hell are you?"
"You death," Wil replied in a cold tone before he pulled the bow string to give a finishing strike but just then…
*Boom*
All of a sudden, a loud sound resounded all over the kingdom, making everyone stop the fighting immediately and turned towards the source.
As Wil turned his head, he saw traces of an explosion that can be seen from hundreds of kilometers away.
"What the…" Wil was stunned on the spot as the system sent continuous notifications.
