Rendark started hammering right away at Brawly and didn’t show any mercy. He didn’t display any sign of topping soon. He hit one furious blow after another. Brawly was about to lose.
But in an instant after having the thought of losing, he felt something Brawly had told him the day before. He felt his inner power rise; it filled him with energy and made him feel as if he could do anything. This was his Astralo rising. A blue aura was rising around him. With this newfound power and energy, he used all his force with one final blow. He hit so hard he himself was knocked back with his eyes closed.
And when he rubbed his eyes and looked around, there was a cloud of dust which made an Astrouse lying down on the ground barely visible. It was Rendark.
He scratched his eyes to clear up his vision. He didn’t believe his eyes. Rendark lay flat on the ground, defeated. Brawly had done what he only a few moments ago deemed to be impossible. Helped Rendark stand up, even though he was still bruised all over and his clothes were torn apart.
“Well done Brawly.” said Rendark weakly with an ounce of the only power he had left inside.
He walked towards Brawly and whispered something in his ears
“You’ve proven yourself worthy to the king. I accept your plan.”
Brawly’s suspicion was right all along because as it turned out, Rendark was actually King Aeidos disguised as a common Astrouse. He had come to check if Brawly was serious about this. The truth is, when Brawly had met the king the first time, he had believed in him. But he couldn’t just agree with a random earthling, at least not without a test. The king believed in him seeing his enthusiasm and his want to help Hyuneest, instead of solving his own problems from Earth. This was the only major reason why he entertained such a young kid.
The king then took Brawly to his castle to discuss his plans and how to apply it. After a long while of discussion, the king and Brawly had lunch together.
He had never felt this proud, and felt indebted to the king. This, what he was encountering, was an all-time-high in his life.
The king asked Brawly if he wanted to stay with him until the war, or if he is better off at his friend Mustro’s place. He thought he had had his part of royal life and got himself dropped off at Mustro’s home.
Upon returning to Mustro, he explained everything that had happened. He had tears of joy in his eyes, and gave Brawly a tight hug.
“I’m sorry Brawly. I gave up so easily. You’ve shown me what my parents could not show me before entering the gates of heaven. Even my mother didn’t have enough time. You’ve shown me everything is possible.”
On the dawn of the day of the war, everyone was assembled near the ancient burial belonging to the final shard of Lamedernelle. They had hidden themselves so that they were not visible from a long distance.
As expected, the evil king and his secretary were visible in Hyunestian skies. Everyone was positive and ready to put a strong fight. A while later, the king arrived on the land above the burial of the shard.
But something was different. Something they didn’t foresee….
