The Throne Of Valor
Edmud: The Dark Knight

Albama, United States.

A bright morning wrapped in the morning sunlight that shone on Steph's face immediately woke her from her sleep.

Steph checked her phone and got a message from Gwen saying, “I buried something behind Hirendel Castle when I became a Princess of Gwen. You want to accompany me today to investigate? I've also invited Jhon and he'd be happy to help.”

Steph contacted Gwen immediately because a message from Gwen had been received since a few hours ago.

After a few missed calls, Steph's call was finally answered.

“Halo. Gwen, I'm coming!”

“Really? Come on we both Jhon will be waiting for you in the hospital lobby.”

“But we are in treatment, should not leave the hospital.”

“This hospital belongs to my father. My dad will take care of it.”

“Then be well, I'll be there soon!” Close Steph in her call.

Steph immediately prepared and glided in her wheelchair to meet Gwen & Jhon.

When Steph arrives in the lobby, Steph sees Gwen and Jhon looking familiar when they have just met.

When compared to Jhon, Steph is currently a nobody plus the two lame legs can not be an advantage for him.

“Oh hi Steph!” Gwen waved her hand, smiled at Steph and walked towards her to help Steph push her wheelchair.

“Alright, now we will find information about Hirendel Kingdom in the library.” John walked out first to prepare his vehicle.

While being pushed by Gwen towards Jhon's vehicle, Steph asks her, “how are you doing? Has it improved?”

“Hm ... you could say so. But I insist on staying in the hospital because I want to meet you guys.”

“Thank God. Then your memory has it returned?”

“I'm glad you asked like that. My memory is still the same, still unable to remember myself. I now see the world in a different way, like someone newly born.”

Hearing what Gwen said, Steph again felt guilty so that Steph became less confident to meet Gwen.

But Steph told herself to ask, “what would you do if you met the person who caused your memory to disappear?”

“Of course I'll kill him! I'll make sure every nail on his body is plucked!” Gwen's tone sounded like a joke, but it still frightened Steph.

“Haha! No, Steph I was just kidding. I would even thank him for making me a new person. My father showed me pictures of myself once, but in each of those photos I didn't see myself smiling sincerely. After that incident, my Dad and Mom were very happy because I care more and love them.”

“What if someone who causes you like this is a...” Steph's words come to a standstill when she sees Jhon arriving in his new car.

“Can you repeat it again?” Gwen asks Steph when Gwen tries to help Steph into Jhon's car.

“Ah no.” Steph suddenly undoes her intentions after feeling that now is not the right time.

…

Regional Library, Albama.

“Steph! Gwen! I found it!” Jhon's eyebrows rise to call Steph and Gwen who are looking for history books about the Kingdom of Hirendel.

“Hirendel Kingdom really exists! It is now located in ...” Jhon floated his hand on the map towards the far west.

“Sini!” Jhon continued after his finger stopped in Austria.

“It is also mentioned that once there was a Princess from the Kingdom of Victoria in England fled to the Kingdom of Hirendel located in Austria,”, Steph said after reading a description at the end of the history book.

“Simply on the internet does not exist. It turns out that the Kingdom of Hirendel was wiped out about five centuries ago by war. But the castle still remains intact until now and became a tourist attraction with a different name,” continued Jhon read some other information.

When Gwen saw the photos of Hirendel Castle, Gwen's eyebrows shot up when she saw them.

Though Gwen did not know about Hirendel Castle at all, but Gwen recognized the place based on the vision she experienced when she became Princess Gwen.

“I buried the sword given by King Julien here! Yes right beside this well!” Gwen pointed at the photo showing a small well behind the castle.

“Hunting treasure! As well as proving what I said to you guys it is true!” Jhon continued and immediately prepared a plane ticket to immediately go to Austria.

A few blocks of books behind them, there was a suspicious person taking photos, recording, and listening to what the three of them were talking about.

I don't know who this guy is, but he looks suspicious after starting trying to follow the three of them from a distance to get on the same plane.

…

Aircraft Cab for Austria.

“Honored passenger, we will be on the plane for 10 hours drive to Austria..”.

Steph and Gwen fall asleep in the cabin.

In contrast to Jhon who was busy preparing lodging, looking for transportation, and preparing everything for them.

Steph and Gwen begin re-entering past dimensions as Prince Edward and Princess Gwen :

“Edward! Wake up! You sleep like a dead man!” Penny tried to wake Edward up all night just by using his towel on the floor.

Edward immediately woke up and stood up, he thought there was another attack from the assassins.

But unfortunately, the towel that Edward used as pants all night was left on his feet when he was about to stand earlier.

“Edward!!! Basic pervert!”

*Plac

Penny's voice slapping Edward's cheek rang out to the outside of the inn.

Penny immediately turned her back to Edward.

“How to wake up the incredible. With a slap from an elite soldier who is already highly trained in terms of slapping, very good for your health!” Said Edward smilingly looking at Penny with cheeks splattered from Penny's slap.

*Outside

There was a loud slam outside the inn where Edward and Penny were staying.

Edward put on his clothes and ran out to see what was going on.

When Edward ran out of the inn, Edward saw many people crowded in front of his inn, like he was watching something.

Edward walked slowly into the crowd to see what was happening, it turned out that it was Dave and Lucius who were drunk and fighting.

Edward immediately tried to divorce the two, but both seemed to have been drunk so much that they did not care about anything and only focused on fighting.

Edward slapped the two of them with one full-power slap until they both fainted, then led them into his room.

“Penny, can you tie them both? They've made a fuss.” Edward called Penny who was looking out the window of their inn into the forest.

“Edward! Comehere! See it!” Penny pointed towards the forest in front of them.

When Edward looked at the direction Penny pointed out, Edward saw the flags of the Victorian troops and the Empress's troops were heading towards Calderok City.

But as Edward tried to see who was leading the army, Edward's eyebrows immediately rose after realizing that a horseman leading the army was his brother, Edmud!

Edward saw now that the aura that Edmud had was so dark and filled with hatred, resentment, anger.

"Soldier Penny, immediately warn all troops to hide until the next command!"

"Ready, Your Majesty!"

... "THIS IS MY DESTINY ...

...I'LL FIGHT FOR IT"...

... - EDMUD, THE KING...
