Heavenly Magician
Chapter 89: The Search and Earthquake

Hearing Kazumi's words made the few people who attended the Meeting speechless. Some of them even started to look at him with gazes filled with curious air, but there were also those who looked at him with fearful gazes as if they did not want to hear Kazumi continue on.

The report that Kazumi was going to make this time would electrify the entire room, as it could have been a declaration of war.

"What's that report, Captain Kazumi?" Ask Kazuo.

Kazumi stared at the entire room before answering the Prime Minister's question.

"The real cause of the Kingdom's problems lies with Felsen, I some time ago managed to get strong evidence of Felsen's plan, although the details are unknown, but this alone confirms that Felsen is the culprit behind all this."

With a slight raise of his index finger to signal to his subordinates, Kazumi began to take the report from the hands of his subordinates and hand it over to Miku.

Miku who received it was a little frightened by the report, but everyone at this time did not know that Rin was currently very pale, it was none other than because this matter had a direct connection to her.

He felt that everything that his Kingdom experienced started from him not wanting to acknowledge his status as Princess Felsen.

From there it all becomes more and more complicated, uncontrollable tumult and destruction, it all starts with the conversation.

Although it sounded trivial, but he never expected the matter to be this complicated.

And seeing that everyone he trusted was sitting here and trying to fight all these incidents made him calm down a bit. 'With Shin as his head, everything will be fine', that's what he thought.

Back to Miku. He flipped through the report given to him by Kazumi with a tense expression. His head could no longer process what was really happening and what they wanted, but one that he knew, the Kingdom of Felsen was blatantly declaring war on Glory.

Just as Miku, King Strom and Emperor Gardio had the same opinion, they were convinced that Felsen was like secretly declaring war with Glory with their actions.

After finishing reading the short report, Miku looked at the King and Emperor, the King and the Emperor knew that this decision could not be decided by Miku alone, and that it was not possible to make it, however, Miku has only recently been dealing with the affairs of the Kingdom.

"For now it's better to solve the problem of the inhabitants first."

Everyone there only gave a small nod to King Strom's words, saying that it was accompanied by a bright smile.

"If this matter is resolved, we will settle the root of this all with Felsen."

But not for the Emperor, he openly said that Gardio was ready to help Glory if Felsen really started the war.

The King's smile had also faded away instantly when he heard the Emperor's statement, the disappearance of the bright smile indicated that he agreed with the Emperor on this matter.

Seeing the two of them being so serious about his words left everyone speechless, no one would have expected that the newly established Kingdom with their young King would soon be fighting against Felsen who was known to be powerful in terms of magic or even arguably among the strongest in the world.

Long before Glory stood up, only Gardio and Strom were able to rival them in terms of strength. Even if they had to fight, Gardio, Strom or Felsen would suffer a huge loss. For that reason no one wants to start a war.

But after the Glory Kingdom stood up and defeated the forces of Strom and Gardio that had survived for hundreds of years, Felsen was here like to say that they were the strongest in the world, stronger than Glory, like he was, and that made the Emperor and the King angry.

Given that the Slave Empire once known as the strongest Kingdom and including the cruelest Kingdom in the world managed to silence the hearts of every other Kingdom King, no one would want to disturb the Kingdom.

But now, the strongest famous Kingdom was crushed unceremoniously in the presence of monsters of unknown origin. There were no survivors other than a few resident people who were mostly currently criminals in other Kingdoms.

And Glory as the only Kingdom in the world that managed to eradicate all monsters that threatened the world's safety is currently being challenged by the Kingdom of Felsen to war.

It made everyone in the room grow furious, not least the girls. They began to show hostility towards Felsen who was trying to harm their Kingdom.

Convincing her belief, Miku lifted her head and looked at everyone present. Everyone who saw Miku standing up instantly fell silent, all of them were currently waiting for Miku to speak.

Taking a deep breath, Miku began to speak up.

"For now, we will search for the tools that Felsen installed throughout the capital, even if it has to scour all the places in the Kingdom, we have to find them."

"And given the existence of a magic barrier placed in the Kingdom, our non-contagious Knights are not allowed to perform any actions that will make them change, he said, whether it's taking things to wear or taking off whatever's on their bodies, until we find another way, it won't be allowed from now on."

Everyone was astonished at the sudden change of their Queen's attitude, but it was understandable given the current inexcusable actions of Felsen.

Hearing the order had been issued by their Queen, all the people who were still dumbfounded on the spot returned into their consciousness and stood up with a stern attitude.

"Good."

The sounds of everyone present echoed throughout the room and could even be heard from outside.

The Knights who were outside the tent were slightly surprised to hear the voice, the firm voice of everyone who was inside attracted everyone's interest to know the reason.

But they had not had time to ask, the group of people came out of the tent in a hurry, all of them showing an angry face of something and it made the other Knights confused.

➖➖➖➖➖

The originally bewildered Knights also began to move with the same angry expression as the one who came out of the tent, their current anger was reasonable because they already knew roughly what had really happened to their Kingdom all along.

Aided by the Knights Gardio and Strom, everyone began to scour every corner of the city, even they had started sending other troops outside the capital to look for him.

"Have you been found?"

"Not yet."

"It's too hard to find an object that even we don't know its shape."

Currently the Other Commanders were talking to his Deputy Nikola and Norn.

Ever since the Queen's order went down a few hours ago, the three of them were aided by the Knight commander Gardio and Strom started to divide the troops and explore all possible places, but the results were nil.

"There is no suspicious object at all, as long as we search for it without any clear clue our actions are the same as looking for a needle in a haystack." Nikola breathed a sigh of abandonment.

"Our concerns are the same as yours, but this is all we can do to save the Kingdom right now." Others tried to calm the restless Nikola.

"That's right, while His Majesty is unconscious, only we can do this task." Norn also tried to give Nikola some encouragement.

And sure enough, when Nikola heard Norn's sentence, she was instantly stunned for a moment before hitting her cheek to wake herself up.

"You're right, let's go find it."

Although their spirit returned, but continuing this endless search made them a little overwhelmed, of course because they had been doing this for a full day.

With exhausted mentality and soul they all stopped the search and re-elected after the Queen ordered them to return.

On the way to the capital. Suddenly there was a terrible earthquake. The entire ground and whatever was on it was mercilessly shaken.

"W-what happened?"

The girls who were sitting while waiting for their soldiers to come home were immediately shaken by the earthquake.

"Queen."

"Kazuo."

Kazuo who was previously in discussion with King Strom and Emperor Gardio ran towards them in panic.

"Please follow me, Queen. We better take cover first."

With a face of concern, Kazuo tried to ask the Queens to evacuate to a safe place, but Ryou seemed unwilling to do so.

"No, we have to save Shin first. And it wasn't that the palace had been strengthened by Shin."

The other girls thought the same about it.

The construction of the palace did look ordinary from the outside, but in fact this palace had been strengthened by Shin using magic, so it should not be an ordinary earthquake that would make the walls crack in the slightest.

But that was when.

"Sorry, Queen. I'm of the same opinion, but no matter what happens, the palace's defenses weaken to the point where it'll be dangerous if we continue to be here."

The rebellious girls finally fell silent, they understood that judging from Shin's current state it could be the reason why the palace's defense was weakened.

Trakk.

And sure enough, cracks began to be seen on the wall right next to them.

"But what about Shin?" Hilda asked in panic.

"Take it easy, Your Majesty has been evacuated with King Strom and Emperor Gardio. I'm here to pick up Her Majesty the Queen."

'Shin had evacuated' with that sentence alone, Kazuo could hear a glimpse of the sound of a sigh of relief from his Queen.

"Please follow me!" Kazuo.
