" What do you mean, I should be protecting you as Argal Commander in Chief." Darius said in angry tone.

" No you will be protecting Saintess So she could prey without any disturbances and I would be accompanied by Rai and Strategist so it will be fine." King said.

"Both of them don't know how to fight." Darius replied.

" I know how to fight." King said.

" Arguing to you is quite troublesome." Darius said.

" Then don't do it." King said and walked out of the tent.

' This guy he would never change.' Darius thought.

King walked through the roads of his Kingdom remembering how he first build this Kingdom.

' At first it was just fire of youth. But, never thought it will becomes so big. Hahahaa' King laughed in his mind.

As he walked to the lake of kingdom he saw Queen Elenore standing near the lake.

" What are you doing here Elisa?" King asked.

" You will never change will you brother." Elenore replied.

" Well something remains beautiful if they remain same." King said.

" Was it today."

" Yes it was today." King said.

" She was a good friend." Elenore said.

" Well she was quite amazing." King replied.

" Never asked you how did she died." Elenore asked.

" Well it was a promise." King said.

" Your promise again brother. Don't you think you promise quite a lot." Elenore said.

" Well it's a bad habit of mine." King said.

" It's fine as your wife she deserves this much privacy." Elenore said.

" It's like tomorrow I was finding job and we're preparing for your college. It changed quite quickly." King said.

" It's already five thousand year you still remember those days." Elenore said.

" At least I wasn't counting years.

Suddenly barrier started to crack.

"It's time."Elenore said.

Both of them disapeared from there spot.

" May I help you Saintess. " Darius said.

" Oh! Sir Darius you surprised me. It's fine . You must have many works." Sophie said.

" No currently I am quite free."

" Then thank you Sir Darius."

Darius took the basket from her hand and walked along the streets.

After some time both of them reached near a tent where some soldiers were lying in injured state. The were the soldiers who first faced the demon army.

" Sir Darius."

One of the soldiers recognized Darius and tried to get up from his place.

" No, please rest first your injuries are not healed." Darius said.

" No, my Lord we can still fight in this war." Soldier replied.

" Definitely, you could but for that you need to heal first." One of the doctors said to the soldier.

" He is telling truth. Enemies are strong so we need healed and strong soldiers. So, it's better if you heal quickly or you will be giving waters to horses next." Darius said.

" I understand Lord Darius." Soldier said.

After this Saintess used her healing to heal everyone for some time. After that both of them got out of tent and head towards the garden near by. In the garden there was an old shrine of Luminous.

" Thank you, Sir Darius. and sorry for the trouble I know you wanted to go with the King. But, because of me..." Sophie said.

" No it's fine Saintess. You are not the one at wrong your protection is really important for this war. And if anyone is at wrong it's that friend of mine. But he would be fine. Since know how to fight.
