Chapter 109- Convincing Freyr

[Keeno POV]

“I’ll get straight to the point since we don’t have much time, but I think the Prince isn’t as trustworthy as he seems.” (Freyr)

“You’re only now figuring that out? I knew he wasn’t any good the first time I ever saw him. If you’re only now just learning this, then you need to get better at reading people, Freyr. Otherwise, you’ll be overthrown very quickly when you become king.” (Keeno)

“What!?” (Freyr)

He gave me a look like I had two heads and fifty tails.

“Don’t give me that look.” (Keeno)

“Why me? I’m not fit to rule, and out of anyone I know, you are the only one with the bloodright to do so.” (Freyr)

“I will NEVER rule this country. I have more pressing matters to attend to outside of this place. I’ve told thing to you before, Freyr, I’m only here for Emma, Sigurd, Ortlinde, and the Dead Zone. I thought you’d figured that out when we first negotiated my terms for helping you in this rebellion.” (Keeno)

“That was then, this is now.” (Freyr)

“My terms haven’t changed. That doesn’t mean I won’t leave someone to help you, which can only happen if we finish this war, but she will have to agree to it, now if that’s all, then we need to go.” (Keeno)

“...We also have to worry about Duke Lucius. He hasn’t made an appearance yet, and when he does, we must all be in top form if we’re to survive.” (Freyr)Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.com

“Pffft. Ahahahahahahaha! You don’t need to worry about that Taboo Breaker, we just killed it. That thing was...I can’t even say its name now.” (Keeno)

I looked over at the corpse of the thing and I spit on it.

“You deserved much worse than this, you disgusting, taboo breaking mongrel.” (Keeno)

“How did he become this?” (Freyr)

“He broke the Dragon Taboo, that’s all you need to know. Now, let’s go commit some regicide, I’m done with this conversation for now.” (Keeno)

This small reprieve helped with recovering some mana and stamina. I started moving in the direction of the tallest building in the city, the castle. The others followed me, with Freyr taking the lead, showing us the quickest way there. On the way, I decided to ask a few questions.

“Freyr, which entrance to the Dead Zone is the better point to go through. Above or below?” (Keeno)

“...I understand.” (Freyr)

After that, the only sound that we could hear was the water in the canals and our feet hitting the ground as we ran. Almost an hour later, we found ourselves at the gate of the castle.

Chaos Realm:

Luna: Taboo Breaking mongrel: Dead. Next ruler of Falheim: Convinced. Next on the list: Regicide.

Atmos: ...Needs more pizzazz. They’ve been too serious and aren’t having enough fun with this.

Atmos, not everything needs to have comedic relief. And besides, once they are done with this, you’ll get all the fun, cute, fluffy antics you can stomach. Think of all this serious stuff as an intermission to the true purpose of all of this, the cute fluffy couple moments.

Astraea: YURI!

Yes, Astraea, yuri.

Astraea: YAY!

Luna: You’ve stopped caring about her knowing that?

Order: Well, it IS her third Authority, so she’d have to learn about it eventually. And besides, she has so many examples of it in front of her, it’s kind of pointless to shield her from it until she’s more mature.

Luna: Good point. Though now I kind of feel like a bad influence.

Don’t worry, yours and Keeno’s relationships with your Fated Ones are more wholesome than some others we can name.

Luna: That makes me feel slightly better.

Atmos: Come to think of it, when is that Fiametta girl going to join Amaterasu in watching Keeno finish up in Falheim? It seems like something she’d want to witness.

She’s still spending time with the Radiant Knights. She’s about done there, though, so she should be able to see the last bits of the Falheim debacle.

Atmos: I see. Sounds fun, I’m gonna spy on them for a bit, let me know when it gets interesting over on Keeno’s side again.

Sure.
