Chapter 913 Act With Proper Manners, Or I Will Teach It To You Personally

Since the Teleportation Gate in Lux's Guild Headquarters was connected to the Capital City of Rex Zariza, where the Royal Castle was located, it only took him a few minutes to arrive at his destination.

Just as he was about to enter the Royal Gate, a flying carriage landed beside him.

Lux threw the carriage a casual look and immediately froze after seeing a familiar face looking back at him from the carriage window.

""You!""

Lux and the lady shouted at the same time as they pointed at each other.

A second later, the Half-Elf quickly took a step back and summoned his Named Creatures and Covenant Members, inwardly deciding whether he should fight or flee.

While he was thinking of what to do, the carriage door opened, and a beautiful lady descended from its steps.

"I didn't think that we would meet again this soon, Heretic," the Oracle of the Divine Army of Light said in a cold tone filled with killing intent. "I still remember what you did to me that day, and I am very eager to repay the favor."

"Well, there's more where that came from," Lux replied. "Do you want to experience it a second time?"

The two stared at each other before someone else walked out of the carriage and looked at the Half-Elf with contempt.

"You sure like to talk big, brat," the High King of Lunaria stated. "Let's see if you get another chance to blow us up like you did last time."

The High-King of Lunaria was about to make his move when a sudden pressure descended on his body like a mountain, forcing him to kneel on the ground.

A second later, a calm yet firm voice reached everyone's ears, making the Oracle of Light cease any attempt to seize the red-headed teenager that was in front of her.

"You are not in your Divine Empire, Human. Act with proper manners, or I will teach them to you personally."

The Oracle then faced the palace gate and gave a respectful bow to the Steward of the Crystal Palace, who was standing on the opposite side.

"I apologize for my colleague's outburst," the Oracle said. "It will not happen again, Your Excellency."

"As it should," Lady Augustina replied. "There will not be a second time, do you understand?"

"Yes, Your Excellency." The Oracle nodded.

Lady Augustina then released the pressure that pinned the King of Lunaria on the ground.

Having been freed from the pressure, the Saint rose up and bowed respectfully to the Steward of the Crystal Palace.

"I apologize for my rudeness," the King of Lunaria stated. "It will not happen again during our stay in your Empire, Your Excellency."

"Very well." Lady Augustina nodded before shifting her gaze to the Dragon Prince standing beside her. "Aur, why don't you keep Lux company while I entertain our guests."

"As you command," Aur replied with a smile before making a gesture to Lux to follow him.

Lux glanced at the Saints from the Divine Army of Light before unsummoning his Undead Army.

He then hurriedly walked through the gate without looking back at the Saints, whose eyes followed him like wolves ready to go for the kill.

If not for the fact that a Supreme was paying close attention to them, they might have assassinated Lux there and then.

Once the Half-Elf had safely gone inside the Palace, Lady Augustina made a gesture for her guests to follow her.

She already had an idea for the reason for their visit, but it would still be better if she heard it from their lips.

Meanwhile, inside Aur's personal residence...

"You don't have to worry about those Saints anymore, Lux," Aur said with a smile as he personally poured the Half-Elf some tea. "As long as you are within our territory, they will not dare to do anything out of place."

"I know," Lux replied. "But, I didn't expect them to come here personally after everything that happened back then."

Aur made a gesture for his servants to leave the two of them alone because he didn't want others to hear their conversation.

Only when he was sure that they were really alone did the Dragon Prince look at the Half-Elf with a solemn expression on his face.

"Actually, this is the second time that the Divine Army of Light has sent their representatives to meet with my Aunt," Aur explained. "The first time they came here, they didn't make any demands like to hand you over to them. If I remember correctly, their goal was to ask my Aunt if she would be willing to assist them in closing an Abyssal Gate that had suddenly appeared in one of their affiliate kingdoms."

"A Gate from the Abyss opened?" Lux arched an eyebrow. "When did that happen?"

"The same day that the Black Hole that led to the Abyss appeared in the Gate of the Apocalypse," Aur replied.

The frown on Lux's face deepened after hearing the Dragon Prince's answer. He would like to brush this off as a coincidence, but the timing was too perfect for him to ignore.

"What happened? Did your Aunt help them close the Gate?" Lux asked.

Aur nodded. "She was not the only one who went. Even that Fake Dragon King showed up."

The Half-Elf couldn't help but smile because he was fully aware that the Crystal Palace didn't recognize the current Dragon King as their true king.

They would often refer to him as, Usurper, Fake King, Bastard, or Scum.

Clearly, they neither had love nor respect for the one who sat on the golden throne of Karshvar Draconis because they only recognized one king, and that was Keoza.

"So, the Abyssal Gate is closed and everything is over, right?" Lux inquired.

"Yes," Aur answered. "That's why I don't know why they are back."

Truth be told, the Half-Elf was conflicted about whether he should rejoice or not that an Abyssal Gate had appeared within one of the affiliated Kingdoms of the Divine Army of Light.

While it was true that he hated them, he didn't want the ordinary citizens to suffer.

Especially after going to the Abyss and coming to understand the balance of power there.

If a bunch of Demigods were to suddenly cross over from the other side, then another massive war would commence.

What worried Lux was the fact that he was harboring Succubi and Satyrs, who had also come from the Abyss.

If the Divine Army caught word that he had smuggled these creatures over, there was a possibility that they would use this to start a blackening propaganda against him in order to get the people of Elysium to support their cause to exterminate him.
