Chapter 87: Banishment

The atmosphere inside the hall of guardian became cold. All the guardians who were present there had nothing to do but wait and watch. The fight between two guardians was something rare, so all the guardians came inside to witness the epic battle. But Rae was unaware of his opponent's true strength.

"Foolish Astraeus, do you really think that you can beat me?"

The guardian of water came down from his throne and made a barrier with water around him.

"I just want my throne back without any violence. But you're leaving no choice behind."

"I did what I had to do in order to maintain a small realm. I can't bite more than I chew. So, don't make things complicated. I'd love to give your position back, but your wishes are too big. So I can't let you have it."

Astraeus held his swords with a strong grip and ran towards the water guardian. But he blocked his attack from very far away. The water tentacles with sharp blades on their tip grew from the water guardian's back and blocked all of his attacks from far away. He was nowhere near his body to attack.

"Astraeus, calm down. If you stop now, I can show you some mercy. You're just wasting my time!"

But Rae didn't stop attacking his water tentacles at all. He was swinging his sword like a madman who was refusing to pay for his drink. His actions resembled a drunk madman who's wrecking a bar without paying money.

"Rae!! Stop this nonsense!!"

But he refused to listen.

The guardian of water was left with no choice. So he grabbed his whole body with one of his sharp tentacles and made a seal on his fragment again.

His fragment was sealed again.

"Let's see who lifts the seal now. I'm going to throw you to a far dimension now. So you can never come back here. Take care Rae, I hope this is our last conversation."

"Nooo!!!! Let me go!! Lift this damn curse!! I will kill you this time!! I will show you what I'm capable of!!"

Rae was thrown off the guardian realm again and he reached a far distant land filled with long never-ending forest that strands high.

Rae opened his eyes and saw the blue crystal-like water flowing on the river. The water was so clear that the orange fishes were visible from very deep.

He looked around and saw the trees that stretched so high up in the sky that he was unable to see its tip. The grass under his body was emitting light as he touched it with his hands. It was a planet that rotates around a dim blue sun in the very corner of the universe. A distant solar system that doesn't orbit around a galaxy.

It was in the middle of two galaxies where it stands still, unable to select which galaxy to orbit around.

Rae looked above and saw nothing but a small dot. The sky was jet black with only one star and he felt the zero rotation of the planet he was standing on.

So, he smiled and said, "I wish Vik could summon me. I'm your familiar after all."

Did you forget about me?

With his frustrated state of mind, he walked forward to nowhere and said, "Vik, I really need your help to crush that piece of shit. But, I feel so miserable now. So, I'll go to deep sleep."

He went inside a huge tree hollow and sat down. His body was so exhausted after fighting with the guardian. Moreover, the seal was blocking all the powers that made him so weak. The only way of regaining strength was to put his body into deep sleep for hundreds of years.

He was so heartbroken that thousands of stars would die if he went to deep sleep, but he was left with no choice. For regaining some life energy just to hold a conversation with a person, he needs to sleep and collect energy from the planet's surface very slowly.

And the best way was to sleep under or inside a tree that's alive and fed off the water from the ground.

I guess I have to give up. Or else, I will die.

Rae leaned to the tree and closed his eyes to drown in his deep slumber. The vines of the tree slowly crawled onto his body and took him inside to keep him safe from any danger. Because that's what nature does when a guardian goes into a deep sleep.

Somewhere in Viktor's house.

"I don't feel good."

Adonis started to cough because the tea went into the wrong pipe after hearing his master wasn't feeling good. This was the first time to hear such words from Viktor's mouth.

"Master!! Akkhh!! Akhh!! Maas aakh!!! Ahemm!! Master! Is something wrong? Are you feeling okay? Is there something wrong with your body?"

"No, my chest felt like something dropped. Something is missing."

Just what went wrong?

Viktor went inside his library of crests and saw the list of the fragments that he saved. In the long line of names, he saw some unusual colours from Astraeus' book. It was blue.

A blue colour? This is odd.

Viktor searched the records of a heaven's guardian and found what he was looking for. The blue colour book indicates the guardian's deep sleep because of the lack of strength. It takes more than hundreds of years to regain his strength.

So, you're sleeping peacefully while I'm working my poor brain out. Well, I'm not going to summon you, not now. Because I have more important things to do.

Viktor went out of his library and told Adonis to send a letter to the headmaster. Because something important came up.

When he was preparing to visit the female lead's father, Nor came inside his dressing room and said, "Viktor, the king has sent me a letter."

"Already? It hasn't been a day since you slayed the forest troll."

"Yes, he wants to reward me for slaying the monster. Should I go?"

"That's up to you to decide. You're a prince. So you should know what's your next move."

I ordered Adonis to train Nor when he moved to our house a few years ago. He was a strong man back then, but not enough to fight for the throne. So, Adonis took care of his training and political studies to build a suitable prince for the kingdom.

The political studies of this world are dull, so I gathered books from my world and turned him into a perfect candidate for the crown.

Because he is the first prince after all.

In the second year of his education, Adonis decided to send him to field exams. It was a wasteland monster-hunting expedition.

It was land where humans don't live because of volcanic eruptions. So, fire and earth element monsters were the only living beings there. Viktor started to train him harshly and make him kill the monsters no matter how injured he was and eventually, he got used to it.

Nor didn't mind at all because he knew that Adonis was trying to make him the best candidate. So he endured the hellish training and passed Adonis's tests.

After Viktor gave him an adventurer's batch, he went on the monster hunt with the other adventurer party and quickly gained fame because of his strength and intelligence.

The news reached the king's ear quickly and he decided to reward him. On the other hand, Viktor erased the memories of Nor's past crimes from the king's memories so that he could go inside the imperial family smoothly.

His plans were working perfectly.

"I think I should go and see the face of the monster who killed my mother and my brother."

"Do as you wish for. I'm not going to stop you."

Nor smiled and said, "You are a really interesting person. I'll give you a lot of lands if I can climb up to the throne."

"Hahaha! Now you want to repay ha? Repay me with some free time if it's possible. Not lands. I am too lazy to take care of them anyway."

Nor said goodbye to Viktor and rode his horse with his party members to attend the ceremony. The crowd from both sides of the road was cheering for him. His fame, his strength, his look and his intelligence were enough to catch anyone's eyes. He was the star of the Vestrain kingdom who killed the most dangerous monster and donated its core to the commoners.

Looks like Adonis made another gem besides Kathryn. Now he's busy with Ibuki. I wonder what kind of monster she will turn into.

Adonis came inside Viktor's dressing room and said, "Master. It's time."

"Yes. Have you prepared the gift?"

"Yes, master. I packed the basket with a bottle of grape wine and 200 gold coins. Is this enough?"

"That will be enough. Now, let's go. Her father's health is decreasing rapidly."

I packed some things for the female lead's father because it's rude to visit someone's house empty-handed. I should maintain my pride as an Asian and satisfy my ancestors. Or they will kick my ass after my 66th reincarnation in heaven.

"Master, I will cast the teleportation magic now. Please stand close to me."

"Yes. Let's go."

The teleportation magic circle appeared under their feet and their body vanished from the room they were standing in.
