Chapter 4: The Appearance of A New World
If what you hate is this fake world, then what I like is you.
Unknown
Imperial Westeria – Nyoria
The Igneous sat in his council, leaning back against his throne as stared out at the new celestial body in the sky.
The Theocracy of the Divine Court – Nyoria.
The high judicial, the voice, the nuns of the omen, and all the archbishops and bishops of the divine court assembled in the Grand Synagogue.
"The Destroyer has returned." The High Judicial's voice resounded throughout the hall.
Seline and the other nuns stood and departed.
Cascyn – Nyoria
Slaves stopped in their works, dockers, ship owners, merchants.
They stopped, looking up to the new planet in the sky.
Similar occurrences happened all over Gyndal, on Sahariel, Aurelia and Norviik.
This was the advent of a new age, and all the world was in chaos.
_ Two Days Later _
Rougeria – Aurelia.
In the Royal Capital Rergarde, the town gates were filled from all over the nation.
"What's going on?" A citizen asked a guard.
"The new star has the king worried." He replied. "He has summoned notable hunters and warriors from all over the kingdom."
"It's truly a marvel." The civilian nodded, looking to the hunters who headed to the palace.
.Inside the Rougerian Palace.
The crowds filled the empty seats, awaiting the arrival of the king, as soon as the seats filled all the doors were closed.
"All rise!"
They rose as the king entered and took his seat.
"Thank you all for heeding my call." He spoke after a short moment of quiet.
"With the arrival of the alien body above our world, I've deemed it right to host an expedition – to the new world." He declared.
Immediately, the gathering burst into chatter.
_Thud_
The door was pushed open.
Silence ensued as they all turned.
White ponytail fluttering in the wind.
Rows of unconscious guards behind him.
11 people standing by his side.
"Sir Aryan, what is the meaning of this?" The king questioned.
There was not a soul here who did not know who Aryan was.
The man who purged the kingdom of all its threats.
The man who opposed anyone and everyone so long as he wished to.
The last son of House Yujiro.
Who didn't know Aryan Yujiro Vaelthore?
"An expedition would just be you seeking war." Aryan said calmly, walking forward slowly with that warm expression over his face.
"Then what do you suggest?" The king asked.
Aryan smiled, turning to Dan 7.9 by his side, then looking out to the planet.
"Who here knows the name Adrian Wilbert?" He asked.
There was silence.
They turned to each other, wondering.
"He is the one who challenged the Triune of the Divine court." One of the king's men replied after browsing the net.
"Yes." Aryan nodded.
"He also played a hand in the Anulian flood." He added.
"What does he have to do with our discussion?" The king asked. "Isn't he dead?"
"No, he is very much alive." Aryan's smile deepened. "In fact, he is the one whose world you plan to invade."
There was a long pause after his revelation.
"We also know Ravon Vaelthore, don't we?" He broke the silence.
"Your uncle." They nodded.
"Now here is a man feared by several nations. A man who recognizes very few people, yet Adrian wriggled his way into those respected few."
There was another pause.
"Adrian is a man of political background. He'll avoid conflict, now that he has returned to this world he shall surely hold a meeting before resulting to violence."
"I'm not saying don't put countermeasures in place, I'm saying don't make the first move."
