While Kai and his cla.s.smates were traveling to ancient battlefield.A white carriage with a women whose full body is covered with white cloth and a middle aged man sitting across her; inside the carriage with a flag of white unicorn with cross sword on top of it, and was slowly moving towards the western boundary of Buraford Kingdom, with thirty heavy armed guards riding on horses, moving along side them as they get closer and closer to the check post of Buraford Kingdom;where guards were moving around and checking identification doc.u.ment.
Most of them were merchant and travelers; which lead to the formation of a long row of carriages as guards carefully examined every doc.u.ments and item in the carriage.
The white carriage with guards when entered the range of check post and everyone saw the flag on top of the carriage with guards standing on the side.
Boundary guard captain also saw the symbol on top of the carriage and the guards riding the horses beside it.
"Oman Empire, was anyone from Oman Empire was supposed to come today"muttered the boundary guard captain and took out a runephone from his clothes and press the call b.u.t.ton and after sometime the reply came from the other side.
"Report, why are you calling me? Anything unusual have occurred in boundary"
"Sir, recently a carriage from Oman Empire has entered our check post and currently are standing with others to merchant and travelers in a row outside the boundary. What are your orders? Sir, can we allow them to cross or tell them to turn back"asked the boundary guard captain and waited for the reply and after sometime, he got his answer.
"Yes, allow them to pa.s.s. That carriage must belong to Duke Grawn who had send a letter someday ago that he would like to talk with Gold master for a business corporation. So central command has approved it. But still keep a eyes on them and inform the Rio city lord Simon about it"boundary guard captain nodded and hang up the rune phone while telling, the guards to allow them to pa.s.s.
After sometime Duke Grawan finally got the approval and got their doc.u.ments stamped and left the check post entering the western territory of Buraford Kingdom as they march towards the Rio city.
[Check Post]
Captian looked for sometime towards the direction of leaving white carriage and after sometime it fade away from his eyes and sighed in relief.
Even though the number of guards on the boundary have been reduced significantly over the past three months.The security on the boundaries have been ordered to be on full alert.
"When will this duty coming to end and the next group will take over my post, so that I can continue my military training under lord Jai"muttered the captain.
The guards who was standing near him also nod"Captain, you are right. I also can"t wait to go back to training center to train again and become stronger. I don"t want to get left behind by others division"
Hearing that Captain smiled and returned back to his post and continued doing their work but n.o.body recognise how strong these guards are aside from thirty guards beside Duke Grawan, Duke Grawn and Saintess Maya who had covered her entire body in white cloth.
As the carriage pick up speed. Duke Grawn and Saintess Maya inside the carriage had different expression and thoughts in their mind.
Duke Grawn was completed shocked and had serious expression on his face
"When did Buraford Kingdom have so many rank three peak fighters in their military and have them act only as boundary guards. If I have not accompany this secret messenger, send by her majesty. I would have never known this fact after all. The information he got half a month ago, it has been mentioned that cultivation of boundary guards were rank two of fighters. How did it suddenly increased? Did Buraford Kingdom changed the boundary guard without even my knowledge. If so why will they mobilise rank three fighters to boundary. After all rank three fighters level soldiers are basically given importance ranks in military not some duty as boundary guard on check posts. Even three empire don"t dare to use rank three fighters for such duty"
While Saintess Maya was happy about it.
Outsider probably don"t know but Maya know that Buraford Kingdom royal family and imperial family of Radiant Empire had deep secret relations.h.i.+p just like they had with Oman Empire. The late queen of Buraford Kingdom was great granddaughter of her step brother Josif vermilion. Who is currently acting has the emperor of Radiant Empire. Which is also why she is so much worried about Radiant Empire inner power struggle. She is well aware of that not much time is left of Josif life and at maximum can life for two to three more years and if she doesn"t act now. Entire imperial family of Radiant Empire will be wiped out by the different political forces inside the radiant empire and supporters of Radiant Church. At worst Radiant Empire will enter civil war or breakdown from within.
All of these worries give headache to her.
"Only if my nephew"s were capable as there father Josif instead of lazing around and scheming against each other.
But sill if anything happens bloodline of Radiant Empire will still life on.Flowing inside the veins of Royal family of Buraford Kingdom and they can claim the throne of Radiant Empire with valid evidence. This was one another of the back up plan of her brother"
Thought Saintess Maya and look at the scene of forest outside the window of carriage.
One and a half hour later they reached the Rio city also known as west city of Buraford Kingdom.The trade hub of the kingdom and where most of the prosperous region of Buraford Kingdom.
But all of those are now. Things of past, after the destruction caused by Undead Emperor Yakto and being the centre of all those events.
The city is still in his way to recover its former glory.
When carriage reached the western gate of the Rio city.
Body of Duke Grawn and Maya started to shake violently and felt like they are standing naked before a being of overwhelming power and strong. Making them feel like they are nothing but worthless life and if that being wants, he can erase them anytime he wants.
Saintess Maya was the most astonis.h.i.+ng and scared on getting this feeling.
After all she is a peak magic champion and there are not many people who can make her feel such fear. But currently she cannot help but tremble as her lips shakes.
On the other hand, Duke Grawn had a less intense reaction as he had faced his kind of situation before"Is miss Kaya present in Rio city. Last time taking with miss Kaya really help me on understanding the wind break spell and how to control it"
Just thinking about Kaya. Duke Grawn had deep respect and fear in his eyes and tried to calm himself down but he was curious also and excited also.
"This time, I will definitely make her agree to take me as her students"with determined in his eyes.
After sometime the feeling was gone and they got the permission to enter the city and without stopping anywhere in the middle. They directly head towards Duke Castle.
