The Last Ruler: The Return of the Goddess
War challenge

" Sister Derrick is out."

The calm and sweet voice filled the hot hall, making the tense atmosphere calm again. All eyes immediately turned to look at her, the beautiful young girl walking down the stairs firmly. Making everyone speechless in their place without being able to take their eyes off.

On the other hand, Mira just smiled in relief because of her. Altair arrives on time, and he is not alone, Israhi and Ian are right behind him.

Altair kept walking up to the men and said, "Sister Derrick is outside, and we can't tell him where he's going to keep his privacy. So if you want to meet him, please wait for the time when he comes back and please come again" he said trying as polite as possible because this is their first meeting.

And that immediately made the bullies who came there, their leader spoke again. " Is that so. Then who are you?" he asked Altair, looking interested.

" I'm Altair, his sister." replied Altair briefly.

But it seems confusing to them...

" Ah, does Derrick have a brother??" Widen turned to her friends with a wondering expression.

But Siran shook his head not knowing about it, "I don't know, all I know is that he's an orphan. That's it."

" That's weird. We've never heard of you before, where Derrick hid you all this time..??"

Altair wanted to say imperial palace, but if it was like that it would be bad for him. He could have been chased around by troublesome people when he found out he had a relationship with the imperial family...

" I went to explore the labyrinth with my teacher." in the end he lied like that.

" Oh, no wonder you have such a strong presence."

And that person seemed to believe him after seeing the faint aura of Altair still visible, even though he had hidden his strength.

Altair also didn't want to buy more time with this pointless conversation, so she went straight to her core. " Because your business is done, please get out of here." Altair turned away from there, but a moment later he paused and turned his head. " Oh...! And tell your guild master that I'm waiting for his official apology, because you've made a scene here" he said, staring intently at the men.

" ha's. Though it was your men who intended to hit us first, but why should we apologize." the woman who came with them, Ninia, it started talking arrogantly while playing its hair not understanding the situation there.

While Altair just looked at him with an expressionless face...

" We were just asking where Derrick was, so why was he angry? There is a clear distinction between an angry man and a barbarian. You who replaced Derrick should know that, right?" he was underestimating Altair and the people he was following at the moment.

" How dare you...!!"

It re-ignited the emotions of the people, yet Altair raised his hand before there was another fight. Seeing that made everyone back silent, everyone who was there already understood the position of Altair even though he was not their member.

Altair raised his head haughtily and looked them down, then put his finger in front of his mouth. " Oh yeah? I know it. But it was you who came here without any notice and courtesy, then spoke at will and sprinkled kerosene near the fire. Do you know what? There is a very thin difference between being careless and being completely stupid. I was confused, the barbarian was us or you were yourself." That was the arrogance he learned among the nobles.

Altair could see Ninia and her friends gasping in shock after hearing her words, a moment later her face flushed red with her own embarrassment. He may have realized what he meant. There was no point in him pretending to be pretentious using graceful words like a noble if he could not even look at his opponent properly.

He's just going to go deeper.

Altair could also see her clearly, her other friends might indeed have come to look for trouble. However the woman is different.Eyes are filled with hidden desires and desires, she may come to tease Derrick or some sort of her.

Altair just sighed because of it, then went back to talking. " It's my last tolerance, please leave here and come back when Derrick's brother is in place" he said firmly.

But Ninia didn't seem to intend to retreat from there just like that, "Don't be arrogant just yet, you little boy. Do you think you can survive if you seek trouble with our Guild?" he said while looking at Altair full of hatred.

" Whether it's a Guild or a city, I can flatten it whenever I want." Altair doesn't care about that.

" Are you able to say that even after starting a war with us?!!" the words of Altair provoked Karol, making him look at Altair so angrily.

" How dare you underestimate our guild!!." Siran is the same as him.

" Miss Altair, you're provoking the wrong person.

The men now began to lose their composure, and growled back like wild beasts to Altair. In contrast to the calmer Altair.

" We will assume this does not happen if you provide clear compensation" said Widen, who led them later.

" What nonsense are you saying! You guys are making trouble here and you guys want to get compensated?! You little bastard!" Ian who heard that went straight up. The other members cheered angrily for that.

It seemed like that was their initial goal, only they did not expect that Altair would appear and get involved in this matter.

" If you don't want to do it, then the war can't be stopped." ah, he's a blackmailer.

" So do you think we're scared?" Even Israhi who had just been silent started talking.

" It's a matter of honor, so-so...."

" So, do you really want a war?" Altair interrupted his speech before the man finished speaking.

He stood still with a dark face until people were unsure of the expression he was making right now. Even so, you know why the atmosphere in that place now turned cold.

Widen felt nervous for a moment, then went back to talking. " ...That's the thing you started yourself."

A meaningless challenge...

"..... So yeah. Do you guys want to try it?"

...In front of absolute strength.

" Yhhhhhh..!!"

" How is it possible... This kind of power...!!"

" I-I can't breathe...!"

That's a huge power. People do not believe that power comes out of the little boy in front of them, even for Israhi and his friends, it is unacceptable common sense.

While Altair was just silently staring at the people before him with a cold glare, he was really angry at being irritated by various things in a day. He raised his hand to do something, when....

" Altair.." the voice stopped him.

The bloody aura disappeared and the pressure was lifted. People immediately fell on their knees on the floor, still staring at him in disbelief. Meanwhile, Altair looked the other way.

" What's up, teacher??" he asked in a calm voice to Mira who was still in her place, along with Remilia and Yi who were also looking at him in surprise.

Meanwhile, Mira drinks the beer that is there for her casually then glances at Altair with one eye closed.

" Derrick told you to take responsibility, but you put that kind of power in here. Do you want to destroy the guild's aura with that??" he said it casually.

" h..!!" While Altair had only come to a realization with it, he did not think that this place would collapse just like that when he exerted his strength. " ...If his guild hall was destroyed, Derrick's brother might be sad.." he muttered with a confused expression that was still heard by the people.

And it made them look at Altair strangely, there was no way Derrick would be sad because it was a common occurrence there.

On the other hand, Altair thought about that carefully. Then he nodded his head after finding something, "Well, then, "he said hanging.

He turned to go up the stairs and said, "Zico, throw those people out of here" she said.

People were wondering with that, until the moment the people who made the matter suddenly shot up into the air...

" This..!! What the..!"

" Stop!.."

" Agh...!!"

And they were thrown out of there, and the door was shut. People just kept quiet with dumbfounded expressions because of that...

So did Ian, until Altair's voice resuscitated him. " aian... The information I asked you about..."

" he-ah! I'll bring it to you." replied Ian a little nervously with that.

While Altair, who was already at the top, nodded his head and said, "I'll wait in Derrick's room."

" Have been well.."

The crowd let out a slight sigh of relief because of that, Altair really cannot be underestimated. But they were also grateful that he had helped them solve this problem.

But there's still something they're confused about, "Where did you find it??" ian asked Israhi who was standing quietly beside him.

Israhi glanced at him then thought for a while, "I guess when he just came out of the imperial capital of Foldes, because he did not know about the outside world. And he was with the head of the first army of the empire" he said casually.

While Ian glared in surprise at that, "So.. the woman he called the teacher..?!!"

" Yes, she's Mira Marlon, one of the heroes of the continent 100 years ago."

Their attention was immediately drawn to Mira and Yi who were laughing because they were treating Remilia with spicy chili.

Meanwhile, Ian was guessing the identity of Altair. Hearing a single glance from Israhi, he became convinced that Altair had some connection with the imperial family. Maybe that's why he doesn't know about the outside world because of his identity and the environment where he timbuh awake.

Even so, how can a child who has never plunged into the outside world have such great and dangerous strength. Ian had to be more careful not to offend him...

***

On the other hand, Altair. She was sitting leaning against the chair and covering her face with one hand. He was listening to Zico nagging inside his head...

" ...I know Zico, but it's not fair that it's just me and you're quiet." he muttered in the room himself, Zico was complaining about Altair's request, he found it troublesome even though Altair could do it himself.

" ...Lumine is researching my true strength, so don't bother him."

Altair sighed tiredly then sat up straight..

" Zico, don't be a slacker. Or I'll actually call you a lizard like Mr. Ansel..."

Altair didn't hear any more whining, he won. Zico doesn't like it most when he's called a lizard, or left by an Altair.

But there are still those who bother Altair. Today he was very upset...

Starting from Derrick who was attacked with poison, then the people who challenged him earlier. Altair was really very upset.

He rested his hands on the chair and put the two together. Altair slightly bowed and made the hand in front of his face, Altair thought....

" I have to make those people pay for their mistakes immediately... At a fair price...!" speak with such a sharp look.
