LAZARUS REGULUS
302 Chapter. Agenor's Rage.

Outside the gates to the four capitals of Regulus. Emperor Agenor Albion along with the 10,000 elite troops of the Albion Empire, led by the 3 people of the Mythical realm and the 12 people of the Legendary realm were looking towards the Capital Regulus.

Duke Gigas Leontios along with his 2000 troops were beside the army of the Albion Empire. It has been 3 years since the Lion Heart Empire and the Albion Empire made peace, since the war in the Pendragon Kingdom and the Avalon Empire many people have broken through to the Mythical realm.

They all thought that all of this was a blessing from the Gods. Though it was not only the Empire and Kingdom in the Western Continent of Zephyra that got that blessing, but all the humanoid races and Beasts in Antares were getting stronger as the mana energy in the Planet Antares was getting more and more, and more, thick and pure.

Planet Antares is experiencing a rotation, initially Planet Antares is a top-level Planet like Planet Auriga. But the cycle is always spinning where the energy on Planet Antares becomes increasingly thinned, then after thousands of years the energy will slowly recover. All living things on Planet Antares are getting stronger quickly.

A blond man with green eyes, wearing gold armor while riding a Mythical Beast Golden Lion confronted the Emperor Agenor and his army.

Emperor Altair immediately went to the Regulus region after his intelligence agency reported that Agenor was bringing about 10,000 troops to the Leontios region. Altair thought Agenor would break the peace treaty between the Lion Heart Empire and the Albion Empire.

But Agenor only negotiated with Duke Gigas Leontios, then they went to Regulus through Leontios

"Agenor, Gigas, why do you want to attack Regulus' territory?" Altair shouted as he brandished his Golden Lion Spear Artifact.

"Altair, the black cat kidnapped my son Charon! "Agenor yelling.

"Unfortunately, Lazarus and Iris will not do that!" Altair shouting.

"Altair, the last person who was with Charon before Charon disappeared during the Meeting of the Alliance of Great Kingdoms and Powers was Lazarus. Duke Gigas, also saw the black cat princess Amarylis with my son Charon on the night of the Alliance of Great Kingdoms and Powers!" Agenor shouted while glaring at Alastair.

"Hohohoo. Emperor Altair, I don't want the Lion Heart Empire and the Albion Empire to go back to war because of the Leontios territory that will be severely disadvantaged. I'm just taking Agenor to Regulus." Duke Gigas chuckled.

"This old man must have sided with Agenor because he wanted to take revenge on Lazarus," said Altair.

"Go! Regulus was also the territory of the Lion Heart Empire!" Altair shouting.

"Young Altair, you should have known that the Regulus region had already separated itself from the Lion Heart Empire. Do you want the Lion Heart Empire and the Avalon Empire to fight back?" A middle-aged man with long brown hair, red eyes and a scar on his right eye exclaimed, he is Duke Miles Nightingale.

"Duke Miles, Lazarus is my best friend and Iris is my twin sister. Do you know the consequences of this war?" Altair stared intently at Agenor and his army.

"Haha. Emperor Altair, what do you mean by consequences? Although Lazarus was the son-in-law of several Kings and Emperors, even the Imperial Prince Boreas. But in this matter Lazarus was guilty, he had already kidnapped Prince Charon! Their good name will be tainted for protecting a sinner. Emperors, Kings, Great Power Leaders and Nobles in the 4 Continents would doubt the credibility of all the Empires and Kingdoms siding with sinners, then a massive war would ensue." Duke Gigas Leontios laughed.

"Altair, I just want to take my son back. I want to beat up that shameless black cat. If the Black Cat refuses to return my son, war will ensue!" Agenor said, then carrying an Epic rank spear Artifact.

Agenor looked towards the Regulus region, it was protected by a very sturdy wall beyond the walls of the Imperial Capital of Avalon.

Agenor coated his spear with a silver-colored aura, then threw it at the gate of Regulus Castle.

"Swooosshhh" The spear shot very quickly towards the gate. Instantly the Legendary rank Barrier Artifacts protecting the Capital of Regulus were active. Sparks of fire from the impact were visible, Agenor's spear bounced off and stuck deep into the ground.

"Did the Regulus region install a Legendary Rank Barrier Artifact!" Everyone exclaimed, Agenor's spear throw was extremely powerful, but the Barrier wasn't shattered in the slightest.

"No! All Regulus regions are not only protected by low quality Legendary Rank Barrier Artifacts, but high quality and layered Legendary Rank Artifacts. I thought that even a Mythical realm would require a lot of time to destroy all those Barrier Artifacts." A short blond-haired man and green eyes, using his Mana Eye Skill. He was Duke Malin White Wolf.

"Fuck out! You will hide like a turtle! If you don't come out I'll keep attacking Regulus' territory until you come out."

"Groooaarr!"

"Yeahat!"

"Auuu..."

The sound of many Beasts rang out from within the gates of the Regulus region. 100 Griffin Riders, 100 Fire Wyvern Riders and 300 Beast Riders flew out from the skies of Regulus region. They wore white armor with a black lion emblem on their chest and the White Dragon and Black Dragon emblems coiled around each other on their right shoulders.

The gate opened 200 Magical Beast Riding Knights and Demon Beasts Snow Wolf and Ice Wolf heavily armed, wearing Unique white armor rank out from the Regulus region gate. Followed by 300 Beast riders, bulls, Drakes and bears. An old bear Beastman with 5 Legendary Beasts was the one who led that army.

A moment later the 3000 cavalry cavalry cavalry cavalrymen with weapons complete with bluish-white armor bearing the black lion was led by Cleon and the Nobles of Regulus marched neatly out from the gates of the Capital Regulus.

The 5000 people of the Dark Beastman, Demon, Orc Beastman and human race, wearing bluish-white armor carried sword Artifacts, shields and spears with the black lion emblem on his chest following behind the cavalry troops. It was led by Freya and Lilian who were riding the Purple Thunder Lion Hilda and a Grand Demon Beast White Dragon Horse.

1000 Regulus troops carrying Magic Staff and wearing white battle robe Artifacts with black lion embroidery and White Dragon and Black Dragon embroidery coiled out behind the infantry troops Regulus region. It was led by Elise and Alyssa who rode on the back of the Grand Demon Beast White Dragon Horse.

The 10,000 troops arranged the formation very neatly, as well as all the tame Beasts they rode.

100 People with arrow Artifacts went over the castle walls while taking out Giant Bow Artifacts, Throwers and cannons swiftly.

900 Soldiers carried bows and arrows, wearing light bluish-white armor with black lion head emblems. Led by Diana immediately came out and aimed their arrows at the forces of the Albion Empire and Leontios.

The 5000 troops of the Beastman Dragon, carrying the spear Artifact, Long Sword, wore white armor with a black lion emblem on its chest. Led by Adras and Basilio entered the formation, then lined up neatly.

2,000 men in bluish-white armor with helmets resembling the shape of lion heads, carrying a spear Artifact and a large shield led by Brant who wore a bright red armor and carried the Great Sword Vermilion away to the front of the troops. They plugged their armor to the ground while putting up a defensive position.

2000 People wore black helmets shaped like lion heads, and carved blue-eyed black lion breastplates carrying Long Sword Artifacts, Daggers, large war axes, war hammers, etc, spears and others came out from inside the gate. Led by Cathrine, Theresia and Felicity.

Altair's body trembled all the Regulus troops looked very well trained. Even they breed Beast mounts, The artifacts they use are also Rank Unique and Legendary Artifacts of high quality. Especially the troops with the black armor, he had never heard and saw Regulus' territory had an elite army.

Orcblorg blew a very large trumpet Artifact. All the troops immediately knelt down, except for Lazarus' wife to welcome Iris.

Rion and Dyonisius wore black lion masks riding on the backs of the Black Fire Fenrir Black Fang and the Ice Fenrir White Fang on the right and left sides of Iris riding on the Moonlight Fenrir Sirius.

"Grooooaarrr" Blue Sky Leopard, Kyle roars. In the absence of Ignis, Asterion, Golden Fang and Crimson, he is the Alpa of the Beast herd of Lazarus contracts.

Cassandra and Blossom rode the back of the Ice Cerberus Snow Flower, while Tiara and Celine rode the Fire Cerberus Sun Flower. Behind him were dozens of high-rank contract Beast Lazarus.

The forces of the Albion Empire and Leontios trembled at the sight of the 20,000 troops of the Regulus region. They thought the number of Regulus region troops was very weak as they were the weakest region in the Lion Heart Empire. It even used to be the territory and power of a Viscount of the Albion Empire over

Although their army numbered 11,000 and had experienced many battles, Regulus's forces still made them tremble. Especially the black armored troops who were behind the troops.

"Maron, we are only Elite realm people, yet why are so many of the Albion Empire's troops paying attention to us?"

"Jerry, I didn't know. Lord Urs and the Kingdom of Terra lack the Material to make our armor. So they used black Orichalcum material that was easily available in the Terra Kingdom. Maybe because we're too flashy."

"Are you ready for war?" Iris asked the 30 female knights in silver armor.

"Saint Iris, we are ready for battle because we have trained under the guidance of all of you. So that those of us who are only female servants can break through the Grand Master realm." A woman carrying the Great Sword said.

The 30 silver-armored female knights were Leticia, Calista, Aliandra and the 27 servants in Regulus castle, they wanted to grow stronger for Lazarus to glance at them.

"Veronika and the others will be fine because Black Mamba, Aunt Quinn and Soren are protecting them. With Rion and Dyonisius here, I believe Agenor will withdraw his army. We just have to wait for Amarylis and Charon to come here with Gail's granddaughter for this misunderstanding to be resolved. But the biggest problem is Gigas Leontios, I have to use this opportunity to destroy that cunning lion." - Iris.

"Iris, take it easy I'm here." A black-haired Demon lady, wearing a black lion mask riding on a young Darkness Cerberus calmed Iris down.

"Thank you, Reese I'll repay your kindness in the future." Iris answered.

"Haha. Onyx we are best friends, why don't you follow me." Sarion stroking the mane of Onyx.

"My Master is just Master Urs!" Onyx rejected Sarion's offer in a heavy voice.

...****************...

"Iris, I'm here just to meet that black cat! I have no business with you!" Agenor screaming.

"Lazarus went to the Cerulean Forest with Alastair, Icarus and Hector! Agenor, pull your troops back and I'll forget about this." Iris answered.

"Haha. Iris, do you want to protect your husband? Or is your husband hiding in his castle in fear of fighting Agenor!" Duke Gigas Leontios laughed.

"Shut up! As a Saint. Iris wouldn't lie and this old Grandfather is my business with Lazarus. Then shut the fuck up!" Agenor screaming.

Altair smiled seeing that. Although Agenor is rude and shameless, but he is a smart leader. He would not fight directly with the larger and more powerful Regulus region army.

The 3 dukes of the Mythical realm of the Albion Empire secretly smiled, if war happens their side will suffer a great loss win or lose.

"Hohohoo. Saint Iris, shouldn't we negotiate to solve this problem? War is the last path." Duke Malin White Wolf.

"I agree, let my brother Altair and Namean be the witnesses."

"No! Why can't I be his witness."

"Gigas, we know you're very cunning. The point is we don't trust you. We trust Altair more than you." Duke Miles said using loudspeaker artifacts.

The Albion Empire's army was closing in on Regulus's army. They approached cautiously without giving off the slightest aura of hostility, but they remained vigilant. Likewise with Regulus troops who stared coldly at the troops of the Albion Empire.

The Albion Empire army and the Grand Duchy Regulus army faced each other, they were only about 7-8 meters apart. Now the troops of the Albion Empire clearly saw the armor and weapons used by Regulus troops were better than them, whether it was quality, material and rank.

"I heard Regulus's territory was very poor, but they were wearing Artifacts made by Dwarf craftsmen." A middle-aged man with long brown hair in the braid of a horse, blue eyes said.

"Duke Andre, you are always busy practicing and are left out of information. The name Lazarus is now famous and I'll tell you everything after this matter is over." Duke Malin said.

"Earth Chair, Earth Table."

A large table with 1 seat to the North for Altair.4 seats to the west and 4 seats to the east was created by Alyssa.

Altair as the mediator sits in the north seat. Emperor Agenor, Duke Andre, Duke Miles and Duke Malin were seated in the west seat, while Iris, Rion, Dyonisius and Reese were seated in the east seat.

"Iris, I want to know if Lazarus and you kidnapped my son Charon?" Agenor asked.

"Lazarus had the idea to kidnap Charon on the eve of the Meeting of the Alliance of Great Kingdoms and Powers." Iris answered.

Agenor let out a bloodthirsty aura, but Duke Miles immediately calmed him down.

"Is Crown Prince Charon okay?" Duke Malin asked.

"Charon, it's fine and he's very happy at the moment."

"Iris, Charon is the Crown Prince of the Albion Empire. I only have 1 son because 12 of my children from 2 wives and 17 other concubines are women. Did you know that most of the descendants of the Albion Nobles were born to many women? My uncle Rion and my cousin Dyonisius did not want to become the Emperor of the Albion Empire and my father was dead from exhaustion making many descendants with his 21 wives. But his 19 children besides me are only women."

"What! Do you have 5 sons?"

"They are my daughters, I told my eldest daughter and the others to look like a man. I don't want the enemy to know that I only have 1 son and go after my son."

Rion and Dyonisius' lips curled behind the mask of a black lion. They both wanted to laugh out loud at Agenor's story.

"Rion was very lucky because she gave birth to a Son. We're actually more supportive of Rion being Emperor than your father." Duke Andre said.

The other 2 dukes nodded in agreement.

"Duke, isn't saying that like that tantamount to treason?" Altair asked.

"Altair, even though we've been at war for years. But I know how you are. Let them say that because they consider me more their son than an Emperor."

"I swear on behalf of Goddess Electra and Goddess of Justice Artemis that I will not divulge this matter." Altair swear.

Everyone who was there swore. Duke Gigas was curious about what Agenor and Iris were talking about as they were covered by the sound barrier Barrier. But he saw that Agenor's anger had subsided.

"What's the reason you and the black cat kidnapped my son? The black cat is different from Aslan, Leontios or the cunning Leandro." Emperor Agenor gritted his teeth.

"My daughter Amarylis loves your son and my husband kidnapped your son to elope with my daughter Amarylis. Now they live in the territory of the former Count Blackton of the Kingdom of Pendragon."

"What aaa!!"

Agenor and the 3 dukes of the Albion Empire were shocked.

"Are they married?" Agenor asked as he let out a bloodlust.

Iris nodded. "They already had a baby and named Gail. I think they're on their way here right now because they heard the news of Regulus being attacked."

"Why did Charon elope?" Andre asked.

Miles whispers the story of Lazarus and Agenor into Andre's ears. "I understand the person who humiliated Agenor in the past was Lazarus. He was also the one who snatched the first love of Agenor Saint Iris in the past."

"Be quiet, Old Grandpa! I swear I'll hang you upside down on the Yggdrasil tree for 5 days if you keep your mouth open!" Agenor.

Amaryllis who was holding the baby and Charon ran to the front of the troops.

"Dad!" Charon shouted, but Agenor did not hear him.

The face of Duke Gigas Leontios became sour upon seeing the arrival of Amaryllis and Charon.

"Fuck! You're late!" Alyssa immediately entered into the sound barrier Barrier with Amarylis and Charon.

Charon immediately prostrated to Agenor, while Amarilis bowed while holding Gail's baby. Alyssa created 3 extra seats for them to sit on, immediately she sat on the south seat.

Agenor and the 3 dukes of the Albion Empire widened their eyes upon seeing Charon and Amarylis.

"Dad, please punish me and release Amarylis and Gail! I am the guilty one, not Grand Duke Lazarus, Saint Iris or Regulus territory. You may behead me, but you must withdraw the army." Charon begged.

Agenor gritted his teeth, then gazed towards the brown-haired baby and blue eyes in Amaryllis's sling.

"Is he my grandson? Can I carry it?"

"Please Emperor Agenor." Amaryllis gives a small Gail.

Agenor gave him one finger, then baby Gail clasped Agenor's finger. He recalled the moment Charon was born and instantly all his anger subsided.

"A very strong grasp, he'll be a great knight." Agenor smile.

"What's his name?" Duke Andre asked.

"Gail Regulus."

Agenor gritted his teeth. "No! I'd like to name him Albion in his last name."

"Dad, my son and I are not part of the Albion Empire family! I betrayed you and eloped with Amarilis."

"The baby has no sin, why should I kill my son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren? Will the gods not curse me? Even though I am cruel, I still have a conscience unlike Emperor Halbert Lion Heart." Agenor answered.

"Wait on! Do you forgive me?"

"You must be punished for completing all the tasks you left behind. The one who deserves to be punished is that black cat!" Agenor screaming.

"Wait on! I thought you wouldn't approve of my marriage to Amaryllis."

"I will definitely oppose him desperately. But now that you are married and have children, shouldn't we celebrate now? But the way the black cat used to make my blood boil."

"Haha. Agenor looks like you're more mature now." Rion took off his mask.

"Currently, I want to fight you. However, it seems that this misunderstanding is over." Dyonicius.

"Uncle Rion/Prince Rion!" Agenor and the 3 dukes of the Albion Empire were shocked.

"Uncle Andre, Miles and Malin haven't seen each other in a long time. Me and Dion are already Viscounts of the Albion Empire, I have a huge debt to Lord Urs that I cannot pay with my life." Rion smiling.

Everyone stared at the woman who was just listening and watching from earlier while shaking her legs.

"Iris, who is he?"

Reese took off her mask, looking at the face of a beautiful Demon race woman with dazzling red eyes smiling revealing 2 beautiful little fangs.

"Andre, Milan and little Miles had now broken through the Mythical realm. Time passes by so quickly." Reese smiled.

"Demon Emperor Reese!!"

"Reese? Are you the founder of the Moonlight Empire and the Mother of Demon Emperor Rhodes?".

"I'm just here to play."

Miles, Milan and Andre's bodies trembled. When they found out that Demon Emperor Reese was in Regulus territory, they would not dare to set foot in Regulus territory.

"Uncle do you know Mrs Reese?" Rion asked.

"Not only know him, but I trained your Grandpa Sirus, Miles, Milan and Andre for 3 years. They used to be only this tall 4 children whose village was destroyed by the Beast herd have now established the Empire." Reese smiled.

"500 or 1000 years is really a short time for the Demon and High Elf races." Alyssa says.

"Agenor quickly pull back the troops!" Andre exclaims.

"Alright," Agenor exited the sound barrier barrier.

"Nearly we all die horribly." Andre breathed a sigh of relief.

"The Gods still pity the 3 old men."

"Sufuku. Do you want to practice again?"

"No! We'll definitely die, if you train us."

"Cyrus is not here, but he is the strongest of the three of you. What's the reason Cyrus died?"

"Haha. Cyrus died 410 years ago with a smile." Andre replied.

"I asked why Cyrus died?"

"Do you want to hear it?' Malin asked.

Everyone nodded, they wanted to hear how a Mythical realm Emperor known to rival the fame of Knight King Arthur died.

"This is the Aib of the Albion Empire. Cyrus didn't actually die on an exploration mission, but she died from choking on the bones of the Multi Colour Chicken Bake." Andre replied.

"..."

"Would a Mythical realm be able to die from choking?" Iris asked.

"Death is destiny, not just choking. However, heart attacks, eating poison herbs and other silly things can happen. I remember a stupid man who lived for women and died for women." Reese remembers Cesare's face.

Iris was trembling in fear. "I must tell Lazarus to chew food before eating it!" Iris yells.

...****************...

*Cerulean Forest.

"Uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk!"

"Urs, drink! You'll die if you choke." Magnolia gave Lazarus a glass of water.

Lazarus continued the food. "A Legendary realm person like me won't die from choking on a bone."
