Chapter 431 Premonition Of A Trouble
Chapter 431 Premonition Of A Trouble
They actually never imagined that the King would finally want to leave that place. The King's condition has spread to all corners, making all Elves lose hope for a long time.
However, now suddenly he is standing in front of them with a sturdy body wrapped in a gray coat.
Even after several hundred years of not standing in front of his army, King Gulben never lost his charisma and authority.
Among them, it was clear that Aerchon and Aurdis were the most shocked after what they both experienced inside and the conversation with their father that didn't end well.
"(I have kept you waiting for too long,)" King Gulben said in a deep voice. There was still a languid tone in his voice but that did not reduce the impact his voice created on his army.
"(I will return to the Palace with you all.)"
Thar words spread throughout the army like a boulder thrown onto the surface of calm water. Ripples spread at an incredible speed creating an atmosphere of emotion and joy that words cannot express.
"(Father...)" Aerchon's words trailing. He couldn't finish what he was saying. Actually, what happened after they got out of there? Why did his father change so drastically?
King Gulben turned his head and looked at his son. "(We'll talk later. You and Aurdis.)"
After saying that King Gulben turned around and went back into the building. Then, a tense atmosphere and silence occurred there for a few seconds.
Until finally Aerchon told his army to resume their activities building the camp.
After that Aerchon went to see Aurdis. They then waited until their father finally summoned them.

Erend woke up in his bed and let out a big yawn. His sleep last night felt very good and of good quality so that the next day he could wake up in top condition.
Erend's mood was initially good when he just woke up. But then, he realized what he had to do and suddenly his mood immediately fell. Almost reached the stage of depression.
"Shit."
Those were the first words that came out of Erend's mouth when he just woke up. Anyone who hears it will definitely think that his live is very, very sad.
While in fact he does have a happy family with his mother and sister, he is a Dragonborn. The figure of a man who must find a way to stop a great disaster that not only threatens his own world, but also another world where the woman he loves is located.
Erend no longer wants to deny his heart, he really loves Aurdis even after he thought it was impossible. What can he do? He can't do anything about who his heart chooses.
It felt like it had been a long time since he saw Aurdis' face or even heard her voice. Last time, Aurdis sent a short telepathic message to his head about what she and Aerchon were going to do.
That's why Erend thought not to call her for a while and focus on doing his own task, namely getting stronger.
Now, he also has to go to the military base to do his job as a soldier. Fortunately, he received news that things were calmer.
There were not as many journalists in front of the military headquarters as before. And that made him relieved because it meant his job would be lighter.
While they were carrying out their duties as a guard as usual, Thomas came to see them with his usual sleepy face.
"Hi, guys," he greeted them with a languid smile.
"We're in the middle of work here," Billy said curtly.
"Yeah, I can see that. But I have to talk to you guys. Besides, there aren't many people browsing here anymore, right?" Thomas replie d.
Erend perked up when he heard that Thomas had to talk to them. He thought the scientist might have something important to say.
"What is it?" Erend asked.
Billy turned to him. "Do you want to talk to him?"
"I guess we can listen to him right now," Erend said.
Billy shrugged. He didn't mind that.
Hearing Erend's agreement, Thomas approached the middle of the two of them and began to speak in a low tone.
"Maybe it's just my hunch, but I've felt something strange about Conrad these last few days," Thomas began. "He is often alone in his room and goes somewhere alone."
Erend and Billy exchanged glances after hearing that.
"You think he's up to something funny again?" Billy asked.
Erend didn't answer immediately. He ponders over the matter.
When his power returned he said he would no longer use it to do things that would endanger this world. They decided to believe his words but Erend also knew that they couldn't know all the things in someone's heart.
However, is it wise if they suspect someone who wants to change for the better?
"What do you think?" Erend asked while looking at Thomas who was also looking at them as if asking for a solution.
"I don't know. That's why I came here to ask for your opinion," Thomas replied.
"We can't conclude anything before seeing him for ourselves. Now you should start monitoring him more intently. As soon as you find something dangerous, call us immediately," Erend said.
Thomas sighed at the end. "Okay, then. I'll be back later."
"If he is planning something dangerous again, I don't think we can tolerate it," Billy suddenly said in a flat but firm tone.
Thomas nodded. "Yeah, that's why I met you guys."
Thomas retreating and getting into his car. He disappeared from that place after creating another worry for Erend and Billy.
"I hope that guy doesn't cause any more problems," Billy said. "With everything we're going through, I don't think we can overcome the problems he caused if it really happens."
Erend sighed. "You're right."
Erend could already imagine how difficult it would be to face it if that happened. He might just return to reserve to the one and only, violence.
