Chapter 96 A Meeting With The King
"Is that it? You\'re not going to put up a fight?" Shinya voiced, looking at Sato and the elves behind him.
"No resisting here, you can say, I\'m quite the obedient soul." Sato replied with a smug look on his face as he walked toward the demons.
"Sir hero? We should be going, we don\'t have a lot of time." Eri, the priestess in Shinya\'s party, informed.
With a frustrated groan, Shinya scratched his head, "Damn, talk about a letdown, come on, let\'s go." He said as he walked away.
"Please, let me accompany you." Deka uttered, holding his scythe as he walked out of the crowd.
With a smile, Sato responded, "You should keep watch of the village, I won\'t be gone long." He said before turning his back.
"Divanchi, Yuri, let\'s go."
Booom!
Both Yuri and Divanchi landed on the ground at the same time and followed behind Sato as he walked.
Leaving the village, Shinya led Sato a bit deeper into the forest, where a white beautiful dragon was resting.
"Get up Rextra, it\'s time to move." Shinya voiced, tapping the butt of the dragon which in turn caused it to wake up.
"You plan to use a dragon as transport? Impressive." Sato complimented as he got closer.
"Well yeah, on land, it would take about 2-3 days to get to the main capital, but with a dragon, we\'ll be there in less than an hour." Shinya replied as he mounted the white dragon.
The rest of the hero\'s party also mounted while the demons rode their horses.
Sato was about to join Shinya on the dragon when suddenly Divanchi held his hand with her eyes focused on the dragon.
Sato paused and looked at Divanchi, he could see the anger brimming around her, so much so that sparks of fire started to ignite around her.
"Divanchi is everything alright…with…." Sato noticed Divanchi and the dragon were staring intensely at each other.
\'What the hell got into her.\' Sato thought to himself,
<<Dragons and Phoenixes are known to despise one another… their relationship hasn\'t changed since the war>>
"Hey! what\'s the holdup!" Shinya voiced out.
"Ahh, I\'ll be right there." Sato yelled back, he grabbed Divanchi by the arm and pulled her close, "Hey, snap out of it." He whispered.
"We don\'t need a dragon." Divanchi suddenly uttered, with a whirl of flames enveloping her body, she suddenly transformed into her Phoenix form.
Sato\'s jaw dropped in shock as he stared, \'Ahhh, there goes my trunk card!" He yelled in his mind.
Divanchi picked Sato up with her mouth and tossed him on her back, "Hey, get on." She said to Yuri.
"I\'ll pass," Yuri replied, she snapped her finger and a small black floating cloud appeared beside her.
Once they were ready, Divanchi moved closer to the dragon, both of them facing each other with threatening stares.
"Nice, you have a Phoenix, that sure makes things easier." Shinya expressed with a bold look on his face.
"Yeah, you can say that." Sato replied, looking down to see both the dragon and Divanchi moving closer.
"Okay! Let\'s move Rextra… try not to hold us back… lord of elves!" Shinya shouted as his dragon took to the sky.
Divanchi didn\'t waste any time, she immediately took to the sky and flew past the Rextra.
Not having it, Rextra sped up and before anyone knew it they had turned it into a flying race.
After half an hour, they arrived at the capital. They were first confronted by some forever knights who asked for their identification.
Shinya and his party all brought out a small gold emblem and were immediately allowed to pass through.
Once they were in, Sato\'s mind was blown at how beautiful the capital was, there were large buildings, people in school uniforms, and even markets and other shops.
It was completely different from what other places outside the capital looked like, only Nervek and Sikkim had the potential to stand on par with the beauty.
The walk took a while but then they finally arrived at the castle, seated in the middle of a field covered in hot larvae and mountains.
"Looks like we are finally here." Shinya voiced out before climbing the bridge to get to the other side.
Sato was quick to notice the huge amount of birds circling their position, \'Helix, if you sense the slightest bit of change, let me know\'.
<<Understood>>
Sato followed Shinya and his party inside the castle, and just like the capital, Sato was astonished at how impressive the inside looked.
They got to the front of a huge door with two huge stone statues of a bearded man with fire coming from his mouth positioned at both sides.
"Are you going to follow him in?" Amber, the girl with the bow and arrow asked.
"Of course not, no one is allowed to enter except him." Shinya said, stepping to the side to allow Sato to pass.
"Like hell, he\'s going in alone? Yeah, I\'m not allow…"
"It\'s okay Yuri, I\'ll be fine, just wait here for me." Sato uttered with a smile before he approached the door.
He gulped down his saliva as he got ready to knock on the door, but before he could even get that done, the door had already swung open.
"Come in!".
A voice echoed from the inside. Sato tried peeping in but the inside was very dark for him to make out who was inside.
But he was able to tell that a total of three people were inside via heat perception and magic sense.
Once he had gathered up the courage he needed, Sato walked inside the room and the door closed almost instantly.
"On second thought, I\'m going in." Yuri headed straight for the door but was blocked by Amber and Eli.
Shinya was resting on the wall with a calm smile on his face, "Relax, I assure you he is perfectly safe".
Yuri wanted to force her way in, but then she glimpsed what Sato\'s reaction would be, so she backed off.
She looked behind her and noticed that Divanchi wasn\'t there either, her eyes glowed before she punched her frustration out on the wall beside her.
