Arthur Leywin

The flying castle, the most safest and the most powerful resource of Dicathen, after all three races united, all six lances stay most of their time in the flying castle.
"Faster Sylvie"
Sylvie is tensed, understanding what I'm feeling and about my next step.
"Fly higher, we won't enter from the entrance, there could be few magic resistance at the entrance, and also I may end up killing those damn guards at the moment"
"I don't feel any shield around the castle either"
Understandable, they're counting on their Lances.
Sylvie boosted fly above the sky, the guards of castle already noticed something approaching at them.
Without a second breath, clouds smoke around, lightning strucked the castle.
I landed on my feet, alone.
There was a sudden breeze blowing which made my long blue coat waving along with my untied hair.
"Intruder!!"
"Get him!"
A line of guards started to approach me all with different kind of spells, shields, swords.
My killing intent made them froze in a second, few dropped their weapon, few lost their control over spell.
"Who are y...
Before he could finish Ice froze him to the top of his mouth along with all others.
"Bring me Bairon Wykes"
I said.
I keep marching into the castle, a human charged me with a sword, before his sword touches I cut of his finger.
I kept walking towards the large door, five soldiers surrounded me, unmoved I kept going, their dresses are a bit different than the usual guards approached me, they must be a few ranks above.
Most of them are silver core mages.
"Burn him alive!" The woman soldier raised her hand.
"He..y.. your hand..
Her hand fell on the ground.
"There won't even be ashes if I burn you all alive"
The large door slammed open as a huge Ice spell thrashed Infront of me.
"Secure the injured ones, leave the intruder to us"
Lance Olfred walks in first, along with his other dwarven Lance Mica and their lords.
"Arthur what's the meaning of this?" Alduin stepped in.
Lance Aya followed him.
The Glayders stayed behind with Lance Varay.
"Why are you even asking this Alduin! Lances kill this rat immediately!"
I searched for Bairon, he isn't here. My mind went blank, every cell of my body raged with anger, Mica and Olfred launched themselves toward me, Alduin tried to stop them.
Using burst step I located myself in-between the two Lances, before they could react I grabbed the face of both lances with bare hand understanding Olfred can counter with her fire spell I hit his face with a maximum output of lightning and slammed Mica on the floor, the short one split bloods, she tried to create something with her hand but downforce didn't let her as I slammed her body again, again and again into the ground.
Olfred lashed forward rage boiling in his expression.
A huge beam caught Olfred off guard as he spun around to defend it, Sylvie stepped out, I took the advantage as my spell hit Olfred from behind.
Sylvie roared, all the Lord's face turned pale.
Varay wanted to step in but Alduin did first.
"Arthur, tell me what's wrong, why are you doing this?"
I glared at Varay, no I need to save my strength I don't know where Ellie is yet, engaging in more battle will be a lost one for me.
"My sister is nowhere to be found"
"What is that supposed to do with us?" King Glayder spoke for the first time.
"You feel too confident beside your lance, Blaine Glayder"
"It makes sense Blaine, don't forget how the nobles treat when someone hits their pride"
"Are you trying to say the Wykes family did something to his sister?"
I give him a cold stare.
"Enough with this, you're here without any proof don't forget and I have had my eyes on Bairon since then, If anything had happened..
"So you knew something could happen!" I interfered.
"I can't contact Bairon" Aya spoke out with the communication scroll.
"Papa, behind you"
Mica and Olfred stood on their feet. Mica's head is covered with blood, but her eyes are piercing through me with rage.
"What are you all blabbering with the boy, we have to kill him now!" The dwarven lord shouted.
Before they make their moves, I activated realmheart, all the runes of my body shining, my hair and eyes colour have changed.
"You two wanna die so badly, then be it" I gestured to the two darven lances.
"Stop your Lances" both Alduin and Blaine Glayder asked the darven hag.
"We'll search for Bairon and his whereabouts however What if Bairon did nothing to your sister, but what you did now, how you'll repay it Arthur Leywin?"
Varay asked.
I started to walk back towards Sylvie.
"I'm letting this council to live, doesn't that count?"
I left not bothered to look at their faces.
"Let's go Sylvie, we need to find El"
