Chapter 534 532:Return Of King Leo

Kinley Empire Star Knights.

When choosing the most powerful force in the Empire, many names might come out but among them, the first thing that came to mind was the Star Knights of Kinley.

They are the monsters that go beyond the category of human beings and the condition to join is to have the skills of the leader of another knight of the Imperial Squad.

They are the sword that exists only for the Emperor and they stood at the Apex of all knights in the world.

Except for the Emperor, The Crown Prince had the flexibility to order them however he could not use them for personal reasons and needed to have a valid cause.

Alex might need to go against the Demon King and need their support.

So, one of the captains of Star Knight stood before Alex.

"It's been a while, Your Majesty Alex."

Alex stared at the middle-aged man with a blunt face.

"You look familiar," Alex asked curiously.

On hearing his question, the man chucked a bit.

"I cannot believe you remember me."

Heavenly Swordsman Aslan.

He is a Half-Saint realm expert and holds vast power in his hands.

However, the man who always had a cold expression seemed to look at Alex gently.

Alex, who has only bits of memories of his childhood, could not help but feel a bit nostalgic seeing him.

"When you were a child, you were quite naughty and would often sneak here and there."

"You would escape here and there or would always complain about going out."

"To prevent you from harm, His Majesty assigned me to take the role of the coachman."

Alex's jaw dropped wide on the ground.

The Half-Saint realm expert was his coachman.

Hearing this made him feel as if he was some kind of big shot.

"Your Highness, forgive me for speaking a bit rudely."

"It's okay."

"You might have never expected me to be Crown Prince," Alex muttered trying to hide his embarrassment.

Aslan shook his head and spoke, "It was not that unexpected."

"Let me tell you a secret."

"We members of Star Knights always have an inkling that you might be the Crown Prince."

"It's a good joke. You know my situation at the time."

"Nothing in the world is impossible, Your Highness."

"There was also a chance of you being cured and now our wait is finally over."

Alex nodded and looked outside.

"Why did you call me today, His Highness?"

"I call you for two reasons."

"First, we are going to move tomorrow and I am asking you to look after my wives. Each of them is going to play a crucial role in the war. And, you need to protect them till they reach the border."

Aslan pondered for a moment and agreed.

They are the swords of their masters, their master's commands are laws.

"Now, second thing."

"I want you to connect the portal in Zenith to Western Territory today."

"And after I go there, connect it to the Northern part."

"Huh!'

"Western Territory?"Aslan murmured with a frown.

"Yes, I am going to the West for a moment."

"Meanwhile, the troops from Leonhart will be arriving earliest."

"Your Highness, we are just going there to manage things and retaliate in case necessary."

"We are not going to war, right?"Aslan asked, swallowing his saliva.

However, seeing Alex averting his gaze, he started to shiver and asked again.

"Right?"

Alex did not answer and got up.

"I need to go somewhere."

"It's quite urgent. I can feel nature calling me now."

"So, bye."

Alex escapes leaving Aslan in bewilderment.

....

Somewhere far away from Zenith.

A man walked through the umber brown ancient forest, which reeked of ages.

The ground he stepped on was cracked beneath his feet. The trees were majestic and tall and rose high up towards the sky standing proudly.

The composting organic smell rose like waves of miasma and as he ventured deeper into the tangled heart of the primaeval forest, a cacophony of screeching sounds travelled around him.

Gale brewed with roars making his golden leaves flutter which shone in the dark pitch forest.

As the sound got closer, many pairs of cruel, corvid eyes locked onto the man.

The dimly lit forest lit up suddenly due to many bloody eyes which were enough to give one chill.

None of them was below legendary rank which proved the reason why no one ventured into the forest.

Out of the pair of eyes, two golden eyes shone and a huge body seemed to walk forward through the veil of mist.

With each step, the ground started to tremble and after a few steps, its huge body came into the man's view.

It looked ancient and seemed to have a love for violence.

Two large beastly horns of dark colour shone while its mane in golden colour seemed to sparkle.

Fangs as sharp as swords exuded a strong aura of oppression and its body was covered with golden scale all around.

On top of the head of the head, a dark red crown seemed to show the beast's status as he walked radiating Majesty while pulling out reverence from other beasts.

Walking forward, it stood before the man and then taking a puff of air it roared.

Like the sound of the trumpet, its roar resounded and travelled across the forest.

The man pulled away his head as his eardrum burst apart due to a roar.

The beast that seemingly mocked the human for stepping into its territory was suddenly hit by a punch.

BANG!

Its whole body jerked and as it was about to fly back, its tail was pulled and it was hit onto the ground.

"You dare to behave arrogantly before me."

"Asshole Leo, I want your army to move Leon's heart and protect the Kingdom, but before that it seems I need to teach you some manners."

BANG!BANG!BANG!

The surrounding beast wanted to plead for their king but they feared the ruthless man, after all, he was the king of their master.

After some time, the dust dispersed and a small kitten lay on the ground.

Alex pulled out the crown and dusted it.

It was the treasure of Nevan, which helps in controlling the wild beast. It was also the reason why no beast attacked the capital even though there were no guards to patrol the capital.

Leo jumped up and sitting on Alex's shoulder tried to act cute.

"Leo, I don't have time to play with you. Riya has been kidnapped and the situation is a bit worse."

Leo's puppy eyes widened and a violent aura exuded from his body.

It roared as if asking"Who is that bastard?"

"You don't need to worry about that, just guard Leonhart," Alex muttered and glanced at the huge number of beasts.

Many of them were locked in Wright after an experiment that Leo tamed with the help of a crown.

The main reason Alex threw Leo here was that he was jealous of this bastard who had been fancied by all his wives.

Even Yvonne gives him the cold shoulder, hugs Leo and plays with Leon.

The second reason was that he wanted Leo to train and conquer the beast in the forest so that they can be used in time of need.
