Chapter 12: King Arthur Von Stolz
After traveling for two days in the carriage, Kraftvoll and the others finally reached Feuesturm Castle. The sight of the castle caused Kraftvoll to have an awe-inspiring feeling in his mind. The Feuesturm castle was so magnificent that it suited the stature of the Lord of the Castle, King Arthur von Stolz.
At the entrance of the castle, an astonishing statue of a strong-looking man was proudly standing.
It was the statue of the first-ever king in the lineage of the Stolz royal family, Verrater von Stolz. He was the first human to ever reach the realms of the immortals, Venerable Seishin God.
That man gave many victories, not just to the human race, also, to the whole Holy Alliance. The Holy Alliance is composed of three races, the humans, dwarfs, and the elves. While the opposing alliance called the Dark Alliance is composed of the races of orcs, draconians, and demi-beasts. While the seventh race, the Asari race, remained as neutral and avoided aggressive relationship with any races.
After a few minutes, Kraftvoll and the others entered the throne room of the castle. "His Lordship, Earl Blaire von Schild has arrived, Your Majesty!" the king's messenger announced.
"Let them in!" a resounding voice from the mighty man sitting on the throne was heard.
After they heard the command of the king, they entered the throne room. They were received by the King's personal guards. They were lined vertically toward the throne. The weakest among them were on the level of Seishin Sages. But that was not the most terrifying thing about the room, the most terrifying in the room was the king himself.
As soon as Earl Blaire and the others reached the bottom of the throne, they kneeled down to the king. "Your Majesty, this servant of yours came, as you commanded. What is your royal command to this loyal subject of yours?"
"I've waited long for your arrival, Earl of Schild city." The aura around the king started to become suffocating.
"My apologies, Your Majesty! We've faced many difficulties that delayed our journey to your mighty castle, your Majesty, the King." the faces of the Earl and the others started to whiten out of fear.
"I will let slide this time. You see, I was overjoyed by the news I received from your town. So he's that boy, huh?" The aura around the king started to soften little by little.
"Yes, Your Majesty! This is Kraftvoll. The child who has the affinities to all elements." the Earl replied.
"Kid, want to become my disciple?"
Everyone in the hall was shocked. The man on the throne was a very arrogant man and never in his entire life accepted any disciple but to invite someone to become his disciple shocked everyone to the core. Becoming this man's student means that Kraftvoll's future was guaranteed because this man is one of the 20 people standing atop the peak of strength at the continent of Niedrige Welt.
The king's decision led to this because of Kraftvoll's enormous talent. This talent may possibly bring the kingdom to its former glory back then when the first patriarch of the Stolz royal family was still here in the continent.contemporary romance
"Kraftvoll, it is truly an honor to be able to do that, you must accept it because the king is one of the 20 supreme seishin practitioners in our continent." Earl Blaire whispered to Kraftvoll.
This was a lot to take for a child. But the first thing that pops out of Kraftvoll's mind is his parents. "Will I be leaving my parents for doing so, Your Majesty?" he asked.
"You can bring them here in the capital as well." King Arthur replied.
"I see. I accept your offer, Your Majesty!" Kraftvoll gladly said.
"Good. Good. But I will not start teaching you now. First, you must first learn the basics from the instructor of your own city. Come to me again when you reached the age of 10, the age when children start to attend an academy."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Kraftvoll politely replied.
"No, Kraftvoll. Starting from now call me 'master'."
"I understand, master!"
