Chapter 895: Sea King
895 Chapter 895: Sea King
Many people inside the city, including the Generals looked in the distance, frowning.
Although the screech sounded like it was the warcry of a beast, it seemed to be coming from far away.
Most of the people couldn't see that far away. However, powerful people were able to see just what was giving this noise.
As they looked carefully, they saw a Giant Flying Whale in the sky, that seemed to be ridden by a man, donning beautiful blue attire.
The Flying Whale had glistening silver scales that shimmered in the sunlight, creating an ethereal glow around it.
Its massive wings spanned across the sky, casting a shadow over the land below. The sight of such a majestic creature left many people in awe and disbelief.
The Generals, with their keen eyes trained for battle, immediately recognized the significance of this extraordinary sighting.
They knew that the arrival of the Giant Flying Whale could only mean one thing... A powerful person was approaching the city.
A Giant Whale like this could only be found over the vast sea. And there were only a few people there who could control such a creature. And the only person that came to everyone's mind was the Sea King!
However, the Sea King wasn't a subordinate of the Royal Elzeiran family! So what was he doing here? Was he here to create trouble? Did the Sea King really grow so arrogant that he started thinking he was able to return alive after causing trouble here?
This place wasn't the sea! The Sea King might have advantage over the sea, but in the Elzeirans Royal City, there were many Shadow Guards that could take him down, let alone the Emperor!
Whispers spread among the crowd as they speculated about the reason for the Sea King's arrival. In any case, the Sea King was a significant person.
As long as he wasn't here to cause trouble, it was given that the City wasn't going to create trouble for him.
Elzeira was about to enter a war with another world. They didn't have time and resources to waste on the Sea King.
If he didn't want to annoy them, they were also willing to welcome him. Who knew.... He might even help them in the war after all.
The city gates swung open, and a hushed silence fell over the crowd as the Giant Flying Whale gracefully descended towards the ground. The man, dressed in his resplendent blue attire, dismounted from the creature's back, landing with a grace that belied his imposing presence.
His piercing violet eyes scanned the crowd, his gaze seemingly able to penetrate the deepest secrets of those he looked upon.
The man exuded an air of confidence and authority, instantly commanding the attention and respect of all who laid eyes on him. He was the Sea King who ruled over the vast sea.
Although it was mostly because Elzeira never paid attention to the seas and the Sea King never tried to harm the Royal Ships over the sea, he was able to remain in power without much conflict.
However, none could forget that he was stronger than a General. Most of the people here hadn't seen the Shadow Guards of the Emperor. However, the Sea King was said to be at least as strong as the Shadow Guards.
"I am General Marcus, commander of the city's defense forces," one of the Generals spoke, his voice filled with curiosity. "We welcome you to our city. May we inquire about the purpose of your visit?"
The man smiled with knowing glint in his eyes. "I heard you were inviting everyone to an important event in the Royal Palace. It seems that the invitation meant for me was lost on the way. It doesn't matter. I still came to attend."
The General maintained his calm expressions, but inwardly he was cursing.
The invitation meant for you was lost? Who the hell even wanted to invite someone as troublesome as you? There was no invitation meant for you. That's why you didn't receive any! Can you have any self awareness?
The General didn't express his thoughts and simply nodded. "It seems you are here to attend. Please enter."
The General couldn't send this guy back now that he was here. Since the man was already here, the best they could do was accommodate him. As long as he didn't cause any trouble, his presence didn't matter.
Still, the general sent some people to the Royal Palace to inform the Princess about the appearance of the Sea King. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Inside the Royal Palace, a young girl was standing behind an empty throne. Her eyes looked at the throne blankly.
This was the throne where her brother used to sit. However, there was no one to sit on this throne anymore. Her brother had left her alone in this world.
Although she was about to go through the coronation and become the Empress of the mighty Elzeiran Empire, she didn't feel happiness.
She was willing to sacrifice a hundred such thrones for her brother. Unfortunately, she wasn't even given an opportunity.
She couldn't even accompany her brother in his last moments. Let alone accompanying him, she couldn't even retrieve his body from the temple as she couldn't enter before her coronation ceremony.
Only she knew how broken she felt. She felt like she was left all alone in this world. There was no happiness in this world for her. All that was left for her was to fulfill her brother's desires! All she had to do was win the war that was to come!
She had to take the throne and enter the temple, serving the Archangels! Although it was only a fleeting hope, she believed that the Archangels might bring her brother back to life if she succeeded.
The Archangels were beings that couldn't be described with the common sense of this world. They weren't mortals. They weren't gods either. Even she didn't know what they actually were.
All she knew was that nothing was impossible for them. They were like the true reincarnation of heaven!
She had to bring her brother back to life, even if she had to destroy everything in her path.
