The Young King's Great Ambition
Chapter 62: The Weapon of Destruction

All the imperial retinue left the laboratory, and they put the eight prototypes in the coffin.

Before they left, Luristine and Arleta said goodbye, they did not look sad when they saw each other, they both promised to meet if there was a chance.

"Maybe I'll come visit you again Arleta"

"Luristine, I'll be waiting for you"

The two of them froze and made them all so full of heart, seeing the cute girl cuddle up when they separated.

All the imperial witches were ready, they all flew out of the laboratory.

They darted quickly back to the imperial capital with a formation while flying to protect the prototype held by Luristine, they flew like that until they arrived at the palace.

Moments after entering the imperial territory, they reached the capital, they descended slowly in the palace courtyard and were seen by some soldiers.

"Let's get to the palace quickly"

They walked to the throne room in a hurry, when they were in front of the door of the throne room, the two witches responded immediately to open the door.

They saw a lot of people there, and everyone was a little surprised and looked towards the door.

It just so happened that the entire royal family was gathered together with all the nobles, ministers, generals and chief magicians of the kingdom there.

If there is such a gathering, they are definitely discussing and planning something.

They also entered the throne room and lowered their heads, Luristine who was watching around began to be confused

"Why is everyone here?, even dad?"

Rivena came up to the throne and bowed, saying "sorry to bother you all but I have important information for your majesty"

"Say it right now"

Rivena took the chest carried by one of the witches and put it in front of her and opened it.

They were all not too surprised to see that, but the head of the magician was shocked.

"Your highness, my prototype weapon is ready, and this weapon is working" said Luristine lifted Ray Rod whom he approached from earlier.

The emperor was shocked, and all the nobles were also curious about Ray Rod.

"So the weapon is ready!" The emperor was excited

"Weapons?, what is this about co-working a magic weapon with your Svardia kingdom?" Ask the emperor's daughter

"That's right my daughter, it's your father's idea, and it just so happens that Luristin has a weapon design in front of you right now" the queen replied

"You said this weapon worked, how can it cast magic"

"Right, your Majesty, we tested the weapon, and the light magic released from the staff was able to melt the thick iron.

Everyone was gaping to hear that, their eyes were wide open and looking at the magic weapon, there were some of them who were dubious, but they all knew they could not test it here

The Emperor recalled one thing and asked Rivena "I forgot something, have you guys peeked into the process of making that weapon?"

"We didn't see any magicians there who were seen making the weapon, they were just busy preparing the weapon" Rivena replied, pointing her finger at the prototype in the chest

"And also, your majesty, they made eight prototypes for our noble ones, and one prototype was taken by the princess to be hers, so the remaining seven"

"I have no problem, the important thing is that this weapon can be produced, let's have a demonstration in the palace courtyard, take the new armor from the armory"

The emperor immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare everything needed for the demonstration.

And all the nobles also saw the demonstration, they saw the shields and armor that had been arranged in such a way.

Without waiting for long, Rivena tried to demonstrate the weapon, she took one Ray Rod and pointed it at the armor.

All of them who saw it began to be curious, as the instructions he remembered from Juvel he also made a dazzling ball of light from a bit of his magic energy.

"I'm going to cast the magic so I beg you to open your eyes wide"

Rivena exerted more magic energy, the focused light hit the heavy armor, the armor shifted slightly due to the burst of light.

They saw the greatness of the weapon, the magic weapon was really giving out magic, but they were still waiting to see the iron leached.

Rivena stopped channeling her magic energy into that Ray Rod, the billowing smoke that appeared around the armor slowly disappeared and they could see in the armor it was flaming red, melted and hollow.

Their jaws all fell down so they gaped at the devastating power of the weapon.

The emperor laughed out loud and said "if I am not interested in the wind and lightning weapons of the kingdom of Svardia, this one is more powerful even though they made it"

They all looked towards the excited emperor.

"I admit that the talent of the Svardia magician is beyond reason, I will see them later if I have the chance" said the chief magician

"Then I go with you father, I have a new friend there, he's a disciple of the chief sorcerer of the kingdom of Svardia"

They were all happy to hear that, now their goal could have gone easier.

"You are great Luristine, girls like you have built diplomatic relations and developed connections" the imperial princess said

"I've decided that I will form an alliance with Svardia, we've talked about it before and now we've seen the evidence"

"What are you waiting for then, immediately send an envoy to go see king Fermund" the empress said

Turning to the capital of Svardia, Hermund was surprised by the words of Juvel who was present at the palace proclaiming his success making a prototype of the weapon.

Fermund was shocked and his face was limp.

"What's your highness?" Ask Juvel

"I'm just worried that the world will go mad if such a weapon is used in war, even if I have a Dispel Orb, it will add another prolonged war to seize the Dispel Orb" Fermund imagined

Femund still imagined the madness and chaos of the weapon when used for war.

Juvel who saw his king tried to appease Fermund by promising something.

"Your highness, I will promise you to create something that protects, I will research the city barrier in the northern region to fulfill my promise"

"Then it's good, and don't push yourself"

Juvel nodded, leaving Fermund

Now he must confront Levina who intends to stay in the palace for the rest of his life.
