Unravelling Fate

21: Elysia's Saint

chapter twenty one;
elysia's saint

—

JUST like what was expected to happen next, we were now on the ship going to Elysia and its city, Sanctuary. That was where the Lantern Festival would be celebrated. It had been a week since we travelled, and we would be there in a few hours.

Looked like the King and the Crown Prince also sent a really extravagant ship for us to take. They partly used my name, so the other nobles wouldn't really have a say on how the Second Prince would use this kind of ship.

Syempre kung hindi maganda 'yong ship na sasakyan ng isang Celeste pabalik sa Elysia, 'yong Kingdom lang ang magiging kahiya-hiya. Lalong-lalo na sobrang alaga nga ng Shrine ang mga Celeste.

But I knew that Atlas and King Dietrich actually wanted to give the best treatment for Kallisto, so I was with them. They secretly added a lot of things for the ship that we used, like foods and necessities.

Ayaw pa nga ni Kallisto no'ng una kasi syempre may pupuntahan din si Atlas, pero wala na rin siyang nagawa kasi ginamitan siya ng royal order ng tatay niya.

Dacher and Marlo from the owl's parliament were also with us. They seemed excited and happy to be included. They weren't supposed to be, but I persuaded Kallisto to include them. Of course, I did that because they'd be useful to prevent the Avalon's attack.

Stepmother, who was becoming softer towards me, was also with us. Of course, Yule and Willow were here, too. Kallisto removed the invisibility in them, too.

The maids and the knights were already aware of them because Kallisto had told them in advance. Syempre, may mga owl na kaming kasama no'ng bumalik kami mula Cudthon no'n kaya naman malalaman at malalaman din nila tungkol sa mga beast na kasama namin.

Sabi ni Kallisto sa akin, sa una takot at may prejudice 'yong mga knight at ibang tauhan sa palasyo niya tungkol sa mga beast, pero sa huli mukhang nagkasundo-sundo rin sila.

I even saw Dacher, Marlo, and Arry sparring with the knights, and they seemed to get along. Even Lincoln was training the beasts to mix their great assassin skills in swordsmanship.

I also advised Lincoln about how to use their mana and flow with their swordsmanship. It would drastically improve their strengths and techniques. And he couldn't believe the result when he started doing it.

Since then, Lincoln taught everyone under him how to use it efficiently. And the knights that Kallisto have were becoming stronger, and skillful each day. If they continued more in a few months, they would reach the starting point of becoming swordmasters.

It would be challenging because they would face a massive wall, but assessing their potential... it would be worth it if they managed to surpass themselves.

Do'n din ako bumilib talaga kay Kallisto. Lahat kasi ng mga knight niya sobrang laki ng potential at hindi nila alam 'yon. Some were low-born, and others were even thieves or scammers from before, but they were now honourable knights of the Second Prince.

Kallisto was really like an onion.

Teka, joke lang 'yong sinabi ko, baka maging meaning no'n papaiyakin ako ni Kallisto sa future, nako, talaga! Hindi pwede!

Pero, he really have a lot of layer.

When I first met him, he was just sarcastic and serious, but the more I discovered, the more he seemed like his galactic eyes. There was a lot to see, and each star was nothing but admirable and magnificent.
