[Time skip: 1 Hour Ahead]

We hurry outside.

Only me and Albart are heading to the castle with Lucius and his men in tow. They will be guarding us on their own horses and our carriage will have a separate driver, unlike last time with Carmine.

"Let's go, Justy" says Albart signaling the driver to move.

The carriage is quite comfortable. Truly fitting to the name of a fantasical world. The carriage doesn't have any suspension, probably because there isn't a concept of one in this world. But everything else looks quite top-notch.

The carriage's interior is red. Red curtain and red seats. The windows glass looks well made. It is surprising to see the glass of this quality in an era like this. Magic sure revolutionizes.

They never required mechanics until now so maybe that's why there isn't much advancement in mechanization. Surely magic could be incorporated as fuel and many things could be done with that.

We speedily travel through the noble's ring into the innermost part, which is the castle. We travel for about fifteen minutes and then the castle gate shows in the front. The carriage goes through the main gate as Lucius informs them of our arrival. The carriage moves into the gate and eventually, we end up in front of the castle's entrance.

As the carriage stops, we get out of it and Lucius informs them one more time that we had arrived.

This was such a rush that I got forced into some Noble's clothing. Definitely not to my taste. The suit or I should say the dress I'm wearing is a less-frilly one. They were gonna make me into a princess or something but I outright refused and ended up wearing this as a result. They said that I would need to show my dignity in front of the King.

The castle. The huge castle in front of me. at first, it took my breath away as I had seen nothing as high as this before. I mean I have seen Tokyo tower but it isn't as high as this castle.

This pure white castle, lined with several golden decorations, towers over the sky. The huge tower that is in several places looks intimidating if someone isn't used to them. The top of the Castle also has a single bell.

I wonder how they check the time here?

Just as I was thinking this,

"The king is waiting for your attendance in the Throne Chamber." Says a Man, probably a noble as he comes out of the castle.

The noble leads the way in front and we walk behind him. I glance at Albart and find that he is quite stiff.

"Why so nervous? Is something wrong?" I ask.

"N-No Great Velkra. I just haven't seen the King for so long. I wonder how he will react to this..." he says.

Oi! You told me he wouldn't be angry! Don't make a face that'll put ME on edge!

As I scold him in my mind, we walk quite a distance and arrive at a big gate, probably leading to the throne,

The man stands in front of the gate and shouts.

" Albart Weskin and THE ELDER DRAGON have arrived!"

At the signal, the gate opens with a dim hum.

As the gate opens, I see a bunch of people standing on each side of the throne in a line. Every one of them stares at us as we walk in towards the throne. Eventually, we stop as we get near enough and stand in silence.

The King sits on the throne in a splendidly dignified matter with a fist to his chin. About Forty to Fifty years old. A strand of white stretches through his blonde hair. Sharp features. He emits an aura of a formidable presence, truly fitting to that of a king.
