In the far land from the academy in the West Continent a man standing in the castle balcony of the astria kingdom, as he watches the capital city below him.

The castle was located in the top of the mountain that called heaven mountain,

the highest mountain all over the land.

The man was between fifty to sixty years old despite his wrinkled face he bear's a rather tall and muscular physique which one would not expect from a gentleman his age.

"My king" a man called him from the back as he was looking down at the city

"Tomorrow is the coronation of the new hero in the central holy church."

"Holy church" The king spoke in a signs expression

"two years had passed since the death of the prince….now the holy sword arcran is back in their hands. And the eighteen birthday of the princess are approaching

I'm sure their going to make there move as well the mage's cult too."

"How about the investigation?”

"according to the last report of our man inside, there's no sign that the church had connection to them…..if the mage cult was really the culprit of the prince's death, then their really are bad news than the church.

To think they killed a hero and our lancers, not just that. Among the prince squad there's our kingdom mage's servant, and all of them are upper echelon….So, they really have monster behind their sleeve”

"their hideout?"

"They've last spotted in the ice land in the north West. and, that our last contact with our man inside, it suspected he'd already been-" the man's words stop as he show's a little irritated expression while looking down.

"Tell me zion? Is what I'm doing are okay, being selfish" the king asks a question to the man without turning back. And keep staring at the city below. "I'm a failure as a king"

"My king, Please don't say a thing. im not in possession to say, but for me being selfish it's alright, its natural to a father to choice his daughter over other's, even it's possession.``

"Right, what I'm asking...thank you for giving me an answer to clear my thought"

"Its nothing my king, it's not much to receive a gratitude from you"

"Is she doing alright?”

"Yeah, my king. Tomorrow is her final activity for exceeding to another year.

a summoning of servant" the man replay

"Dear?

A woman voice raised, calling the man in the balcony. She looks the same or younger than the king. She wear a extravagant dress with a curly silver-hair and long silver-eyelash and eyebrow with a pale skin and slight pinky cheeks

"Queen Leonora" the man bowed, with his left hand are in the back and the right are in the front

The woman—queen leonora, show a gentle smile to the man and look back again in the balcony where the king stood. The king turned around for the first time and look straight to her, and express a better smile.
