Rise Of The Eternal King

It has already been hours since they left the house for their date. As they were walking around to do something more. A loud voice startled them.

"Chloe~" From the look on her face, this voice was extremely familiar to Chloe. She seemed a little annoyed as the smile on her face twitched.

She was having such a great time with Saito, but now, an extremely annoying person had come to disturb her. It was perfectly normal for her to be ticked off.

Saito turned around together with her and stared at the guy who had called out for Chloe. He was releasing an inborn n.o.ble aura that probably came with his birth.

He was dressed in white-coloured clothes for the Royal Family. One look at him was enough for a person to guess that this guy was born with a gold spoon.

A smile graced his face as he stared at all the people like they were his subjects. His eyes were fixed upon Chloe, who was wearing her beautiful dress for her date with Saito.

His eyes gleamed with strange hunger as Chloe faced him. He ignored Saito"s presence next to her because he didn"t think Saito"s presence was necessary now that he was on the scene.

His great pride forced him to disregard Saito and kept his gaze fixed onto Chloe. Numerous servants were surrounding him, many of them looked up to him with stares of admiration and awe because of his status.

They seemed to be a team prepared to head out for some task related to the Kingdom. Chloe gave him a slight bow and asked, "Greetings to Prince Rai for coming here."

The prince named Rai gave a laugh which charmed the few ladies following him, "Haha… Chloe can call me Rai, though. There is no need for Chloe to be so courteous after all, you are one of the best healers within the kingdom."

He stated as if they were very familiar with each other. Not wanting Saito to think that they had anything between them, Chloe quickly speaks, "Prince Rai, I apologize, but I cannot do that, after all, we are not that familiar to each other."

Prince Rai waved her words as if they were nothing, "Since I say there is no need to be so courteous. There is no need to remain so courteous. Besides, I think we have gotten very familiar in this month while we went on the missions together."

Shaking her head in disagreement, Chloe spoke out in a neutral voice, "Those were just the missions a.s.signed by the Union. I did my duty of helping the whole party with my healing techniques."

Realizing that it would be useless to pursue this topic, the prince changed it coolly, "Anyways, what are you doing here in such a beautiful dress? You are looking fabulous in this dress."

Chloe replied to him with a look of disinterest in his praise, "Thank you for the praise, Prince Rai. I am here on a date with Edwin." Chloe cheerfully announces the reason what she was doing here.

Rai narrowed his eyes and sharply glares at Saito, who was looking at him with a bored glance. He seemed too tired to even start a conversation with the prince.

Even though he was clearly displeased, Rai managed to hold it in and speak with a smile gracing his face, "Is he your childhood friend who disappeared for a month and a half after fighting against the Great Demon King?"

Even now that he had noticed Saito, he was still asking this from Chloe showing an absolute disdain for Saito.

Saito let out a sigh which he seemed to be holding in and says in a bored voice, "Chloe, let"s continue our date. We shouldn"t hold the prince for too long, unlike us, he must be swamped right now."

Chloe didn"t even wait for the words of Prince Rai and directly ignored his question while agreeing with Saito, "Mhm~ You are right Edwin~ We shall take our leave now Prince Rai. Have a good day, sir."

She didn"t even wait for the reply of Prince Rai before she grabbed Saito"s hand while walking away.

Prince Rai remained frozen there as he stared at Saito"s back, his thoughts were in disarray "From the information that I received about the death of Hero Jade, I knew you didn"t die fighting against that Great Demon King but what is this change of presence? You couldn"t even maintain eye contact before, and now you actually dared to disregard my presence."

What surprised the prince, even more, was that Saito spoke just once and still managed to take away Chloe so easily while not disrespecting Prince Rai. It seemed like he knew how to react to a situation.

After they created some distance between the prince and themselves, Chloe seemed a little anxious and started to explain, "Nothing is going on between Prince Rai and me. I just a.s.sisted him on the missions we were a.s.signed together."

This didn"t surprise Saito, and he lightly replies, "Hmm… I don"t really mind it. I noticed that you looked a little uncomfortable talking with the prince, so I got you out of there without creating trouble for you."

Chloe muttered under her breath, "I would have been happier if you would have minded that." Saito acted as he didn"t hear her and continued to walk. It had been quite some time since their date began and they were now returning back home.

Saito didn"t think much about that prince, for him, the ident.i.ty of the prince wasn"t anything special. His wife was the princess of the Elf Kingdom, he had a unique status among the elves, so he didn"t care much about Prince Rai.

Returning back to the house, Lyra greeted them both with a smile, "Hey Edwin, Chloe. You both are finally back. I was getting so bored here."

Suddenly, Chloe stepped forwards and hugged Lyra, she started to speak, "Thank you Lyra. Thank you for agreeing to let Edwin come together with me on this date. I had a good time on this date."

Lyra slowly pats the back of her head, she felt her fingers brushing past the white daisy which was beautifully arranged and said, "Didn"t I tell you to call me Sister Lyra? You had a good time on this date heh. I want to hear all about it!"

Lyra seemed somewhat excited to hear the details of their date. Saito though held out his hand and says, "Wait, Lyra. I got these for you. Let me arrange them on your hair. I think they will look outstanding on your hair."

A bunch of Red-coloured roses appeared in his hand, Lyra left her body vulnerable and let him arrange the roses onto her light Golden coloured hairs.

The Red Roses were a perfect complement for Lyra"s hairs. They seemed to brighten her presence, even Chloe was entranced as she glanced at Lyra now.

These accessories were capable of increasing their charm to unknown levels. Lyra shrugged and pulled Chloe in her room so that they could talk about the date Chloe had with Saito.

Saito wasn"t too worried and sat on the sofa in the living room. He closed his eyes and started to think with a thoughtful look "From what Chloe said, it doesn"t seem like Edwin went to fight the Great Demon King due to his own free will."

"There is no way he would have left without informing Chloe about his decision to fight against the Great Demon King. Someone must have forced him, or maybe he was trapped into it."

"Were they able to make use of his naïve nature and blackmailed him into fighting the Great Demon King? Or did they ask him to get something from that cave knowing full well that the Great Demon King Zoldron was residing there?"
