894 Chapter 894: Guest

"I don't have the answer to your question yet," Ryder informed Janus. He didn't know what the future held for them. All he knew was that he was willing to do whatever it took.

"Maybe time is the only thing that knows the answer," he added as he stopped thinking about the future for now.

Instead, he changed the topic. "I came to tell you that I am close to finding the sword."

Janus raised his head, hearing Ryder's statement.

....

It was early morning. Throughout the night, Karyk, Gabriel and Aliac had remained awake, while sending everyone else to sleep.

All three of them knew that they didn't have much time. They had to take back the Central World to establish a connection with Elzeira.

After discussing throughout the night, they finally had a rough idea on what they had to do. According to the plan, Karyk and Gabriel were going to enter the Central World.

The two of them were going to kill the men of Sea King who were protecting the Portal. It was only after they regained control of the Central World could the plan move forward.

Aliac wanted to go with Karyk and Gabriel as well, however in the end, he was rejected.

Karyk told him that he had to stay behind to keep an eye on Zena and the others. Moreover, there was another reason he didn't want Aliac to come.

He was taking Gabriel with him to test if the sword he created could actually kill Elzeirans.

He hadn't even told Aliac that he could create such weapons. It wasn't because he didn't trust Aliac with this information. However, the less people know, the better.

He also knew that Gabriel needed to get accustomed to using this weapon. In the war that was to come, both of them had to become stronger so at least one of them could survive even in the worst case.

All four of them tried their best to protect their home in their own ways. All four of them did what they preferred or what they thought was right.

In the end, even he wasn't sure what the future held for them. Was the leader going to emerge during the war? He wasn't certain.

All the powerful beings in Elzeira were invited to the Royal City. For that reason, the security of the Royal City was also strengthened even further.

A Royal Knight could often be seen inside the city. Not only did the Knights protect the place, but they even guided the guests.

Almost all the guests had the same question that they asked the knights.

"Why were we called here?"

Unfortunately, they didn't receive the answers from the Knights who simply told them that they will find their answers later.

Instead, they simply guided the City Lords towards the Royal Palace.

The City Lords were amazed by the grandeur of the Royal Palace and the intricate details of its architecture. Most of them had never been to the Royal City after all.

They had only heard about this place, but it surpassed even their wildest expectations.

As they entered the palace, they were greeted by the Generals who brought them to the throne room.

The city was huge. Even as hundreds of thousands of guests arrived in the city, it never felt crowded.

However, soon everyone's attention was attracted by a screeching sound that was coming from the distant sky.
