[Norland Royal Palace]
Leon and Klain were already in the throne room of the palace. All the generals and nobles also gathered there.
"It's very crowded Klain." Said Leon.
"They must also face His Majesty King Leon." Klain.
"Hem, can you tell them to come out for a while, I just want to talk to your King." Said Leon.
"Heem. All right if you want that." Klain said as he walked back.
"All Generals, get out of this room for a second. This conversation will be privacy." Klain.
"Heem. Ready to do the Commander in Chief." All the generals said in confusion. Then they all went out of the room.
"Why did you tell them to leave, Commander, isn't this a military meeting.?" Ask one of the nobles there.
"Sorry gentlemen. You better get out of here, too." Answer Klain.
"We're not a military commander, you can't kick us out of here." Said the nobleman.
"I thought so." Klain.
The nobles started whispering behind Leon. But Leon just stayed there.
"Sorry Leon, I can only get the generals out of here, but the nobles here are different, I can't kick them out." Klain.
"Hem, alright then, I will ask your King myself." Said Leon.
...
The entrance to the throne room.
"Wait here Rachel, I'll meet her there. You don't have to worry, I won't send him to the battlefield." Said King Charles.
"Okay, thanks." Rachel said as she waited in front of the entrance.
Then King Charles appeared in front of Leon and the nobles there.
"So he's Rachel's father.?" Leon said in his heart.
"OUR HONOR, THE KING'S MAJESTY." Everyone said there kneeling except Leon.
"Hem, as Klain said, he can't be ruled." King Charles said as he looked at Leon standing up.
"Leon, get on your knees." Klain.
"The boy is so rude." Said the Nobles there.
"He has no manners." Said another noble.
However, Leon was silent in his place, and King Charles sat down on his throne and raised his right hand. Everyone stood up straight.
"Are you named Arjun Leon son.?" Ask King Charles.
"That's right, Your Majesty. Let me ask you something before we continue our conversation." Reply Leon firmly.
"Haaa.? Who is this kid." Said one of the nobles there in surprise.
"Son, you've gone too far, how dare you ask His Majesty the King for something." Said one of the nobles.
"You're not even polite here. You better know your position." Said another noble.
"I hope you consider it Your Highness, this child is really brash." Said another noble.
"I propose to expel this child from here Your Majesty. His attitude is already too much." Said another noble.
King Charles raised his right hand. "Hem, shut up all of you. Then what do you want young man.?" Ask King Charles.
"Can you get them all out of here. I just want to talk to you without anyone knowing." Answer Leon.
"Hee.? You're getting a little insolent." Said the nobleman there while pointing at Leon.
"Well, can you all go out for a minute, I have business with him." Said King Charles.
"But Which Starts." The nobleman said again.
"Shut up, and get out." King Charles said seriously.
"Ha, I'm your Majesty's exit permit." Said the nobleman who was frightened.
Then, all the nobles there came out of the throne room except Klain.
...
"Hem, what do you want to talk about, son.?" Ask King Charles.
"Sorry Your Majesty, it should be my question." Answer Leon.
"eeh. Haha. You surprised me so much. All right, I think you already know everything from Commander Klain. So, what do you think.?" Ask King Charles.
"Have you considered everything Your Majesty.?" Ask Leon back.
"Ah, I changed my mind. I'm not sending you there, so you don't have to do this job." Said King Charles.
"Huh.?" Leon's voice was shocked.
"Your Majesty, have you really thought about the impact.?" Ask Klain.
"Commander, we better get ready for battle. I don't want to sacrifice a young man like him, I'll be responsible for this war myself." Answer King Charles.
"But Your Majesty, this will be difficult to do." Klain.
"I know Klain, I've decided. You better get ready." Said King Charles.
"Leon.?" Klain.
"I know Klain, I'm not gonna pull my decision." Leon said as he walked closer in front of King Charles.
"Your Majesty, for the sake of mutual safety, I will go there." Leon said firmly.
"Hee.?" The voice of King Charles was shocked.
"No, no. Leon ain't no." Said Rachel who suddenly ran towards Leon while shedding tears.
Rachel hugged Leon very tightly. "Don't go Leon, I beg you." Rachel said in tears.
"You've been crying for the third time in front of you, Rachel." Said Leon who smiled.
"Please, don't go." Rachel said.
"I heard you're Rachel's boyfriend, she won't let you go, son." Said King Charles.
"Love.? Ah, no, Your Majesty. Rachel was just kidding." Leon said with a shy smile.
"Hem, then, are you sure of your decision.?" Ask King Charles.
"Ah, for the sake of my new abode, I will protect this place Your Majesty." Leon said while stroking Rachel's head.
"Heem. You're really serious son." Said King Charles.
"Bring me with you Leon." Rachel said.
"You need to be here, Rachel, this is my job. I'm not gonna let you go there." Said Leon.
"But I want to be with you Leon." Rachel said.
"Wait for Rachel, I won't be gone long." Saut Leon's.
"Leon. Is that you, son.?" Winston asked as he approached Leon.
"hee. Grandpa.? Why are you here, cake.?" Ask Leon back.
"He was the emperor of Leon's work." Klain.
"HEEEEE.?" Shouted Leon who was surprised.
"It looks like you're a perfect fit for my granddaughter, even she clings to you like a postage stamp." Winston.
"Ah, it looks so cake." Saut Leon stroked Rachel's head.
"So, when are you going there, son.?" Ask King Charles.
"I don't know Your Majesty myself, but sooner is better. I'll go right now." Answer Leon.
"Alright, prepare the necessities for Klain." Said King Charles.
"Ready, do it Your Majesty." Klain. Then he went out of the room.
"I'll give you a reward, son. What do you want.?" Ask King Charles.
"Your Majesty, I'm still going there, why are you asking me that.?" Answer Leon.
"I believe you can complete your task. And I want to prepare all your requests before you get back here." Said King Charles.
"I don't want anything Your Majesty." Leon said while looking at Rachel.
"Heem. Do you want to marry Rachel, son.? I've already approved you." Said King Charles.
"Eeeh.? Thatu, it's too soon for me Your Majesty." Said Leon.
"Then, what do you want, what is a House, or a treasure.?" Ask King Charles.
"Ah, I just want my place not to be destroyed. That's all it is." Answer Leon.
"Is there nothing else.?" Ask King Charles.
"Ep. Can you give me a hint, where Asura Doji is." Said Leon.
"Yeah." The voice of King Charles was shocked.
"Why are you looking for Leon.?" Ask Winston.
"Ah, I have business with him cake." Answer Leon.
"That's what. I can't seem to do it, son." Said King Charles.
"Okay, Your Majesty, then I have some other requests." Said Leon.
"Ah, tell me son." Said King Charles.
"First, I don't want information about me to be spread out. Second, maybe I will kill the soldiers there, so can you order the royal soldiers to bury him later.?. Third, I want the village that I saved that time to get compensated. Fourth, I want you to properly bury the corpses of the citizens in the 6 villages." Said Leon.
"Hee.? Leon, I thought you were gonna ask me to be your wife." Rachel said in surprise.
"No Rachel, we're young, we still have time to get to know each other." Said Leon.
"ee. Eeehh." Winston's voice was shocked.
"Why did he think of that.? What's wrong with him. Why does he think of others rather than himself.?" King Charles said inwardly.
"Are you sure about that, son.?" Ask King Charles.
"I'm just asking for it Your Majesty. Can you do it.?" Ask Leon.
"Well, I'll do it for you." Answer King Charles.
"Thank you Your Majesty. I'm going to go now." Leon said while looking at Rachel who was still hugging him from earlier.
"Do you really want to go Leon.?" Rachel asked sadly.
"I don't want your house destroyed, either, Rachel. So I have to go." Answer Leon.
"I'm gonna miss you. So hurry back to me." Rachel said.
"Ah, I'm leaving now." Leon said as he let go of Rachel's hug.
"Be careful, son." Winston.
"Good grandfather, take good care of yourself." Saut Leon while walking out of the room.
"Leon, wait." Rachel said. "What's the matter Rachel.?" Ask Leon.
"Bring this ring, maybe you'll need something inside." Rachel said, giving her a ring.
"Thank you Rachel." Leon said as he took the ring.
