Chapter 2196 Oath

Sage Kole Kellin found herself before the Emperor of Harmony. He gazed down at her from atop his throne with powerful eyes that judged her.

His body language had already changed.

Gone was the friendly father humoring his son.

In his place was the domineering and heavy presence of the Emperor of Harmony.

He didn't address her upon her arrival.

No.

He simply waited.

Sage Kole bowed her head lightly.

"Sage Kole Kellin, once the Master of the Inferno Fist, offers her respect to the Emperor of Harmony."

Emperor Rael regarded her with steely acknowledgment. "Welcome to the Kandrian Empire, Sage Kole. My son tells me that you have accepted my offer. Is that true?"

She nodded. "I have accepted your offer, Your Majesty. If you are able to heal my condition, then I will forever swear absolute loyalty to the Kandrian Throne. I swear to fight when and where you order me to. I swear to adhere to your will as Emperor of the Kandrian Empire. I swear to fight to protect my new home from all external threats. I swear to destroy all those who seek to destroy the empire. I swear on my Martial Art."

Her voice rang with earnest sincerity as she met his gaze with clear eyes devoid of any deceit.

Emperor Rael gazed at her for a moment before coming to a decision.

Her eyes lit up with hope. "You mean the Divine Doctor, Your Majesty? Is it true that you have procured the services of the greatest healer in all of human history? The man who cured death?"

Rui needed to exert active effort to avoid snorting with contempt.

Yet, he didn't want to dispel the misinformation if it meant giving her doubt that the Divine Doctor could actually heal her condition.

"Yes." Emperor Rael's powerful voice was rich with confidence, cleaving through the fears that plagued her heart now that she was so close to her greatest dream. "I was afflicted with an even deeper condition than yours, as you undoubtedly are aware. It was thanks to that man's extraordinary prowess that I was able to return to my former prime. He can cure your condition, rest assured. I have already arranged a medical session with him. You may head there right away."

Emperor Rael waved his hand.

STEP STEP

Two Martial Masters bearing the insignia of the Royal Insignia on their garbs appeared.

"Escort our important guest to the Divine Doctor," he commanded.

"Understood, Your Majesty."

"I will not forget this, Your Majesty," Sage Kole promised with a tone of deep gratitude. "I will remember this boon for the rest of my life."

She was promptly escorted out of the Kandrian Throne Hall soon after.

"...what do you think, Sayfeel?" Emperor Rael asked lightly.

"She was entirely sincere, Your Majesty," Sage Sayfeel confirmed. "She will be fiercely loyal to the throne, but especially you when she is healed."
