After following Lancelot out of the academy and getting into the carriage that had come to pick me up, we were swiftly on our way to the Castle of Evelias Royalty. I will not lie, in this moment, I was a bit afraid and scared of what may happen next. In the game, Lancelot did not appear until the second half of the second year - after Alis managed to take down a Lesser Dragon that had entered the Evelias territory.
However, suddenly, out of nowhere - Lancelot appears before me just a little over a week after the studies at Evelias Magic Academy begins... Could it be linked to something I have done?.... Maybe it is because of my entire spheal where I accidentally used the 'Black Flare' magic during the Magic Test where Merlin oversaw everything. It isn't out the question that Merlin reported that to the King...
Infact, I can guarantee that this is the most likely case, considering the entire nature of Merlin and the spectacle I put up back at the practical lesson.
'Should have expected that one move to come back and bite me later...'
I thought to myself, before exhaling a bit heavily. Lancelot, who was in the carriage with me, looked at me with a curious gaze.
Lancelot: "Is everything alright Mister Anker Hilldervia?"
I looked at him with a slightly confused expression before shaking my head and laughing a bit lightly.
"My apologies - I was just in my head. Please don't mind me."
I replied, with Lancelot giving me a slightly sceptical gaze for a moment, before turning his head away and looking out of the window of the carriage once more. I simply shed a small sweat, before exhaling lightly again.
Even though I am trying my best to appear calm and collected, I was very much panicking slightly on the inside. I was simply thinking of what I should say to the King when I meet him, as I needed to make sure that I didn't screw it up and blow away my entire cover and reveal my true identity right infront of the King of Evelia.
If that happens... Well, I can say goodbye to a peace.
Well, technically speaking, if I was to suddenly start a war with Evelia, we were early enough in the story for Alis to be unable to use the Sacred Blade of Hope as well as for the to be absolutely no one around who is able to face me. I mean, even if Alis was able to wield the Sacred Blade of Hope, it didn't matter as I had it in my possession, which very literally meant that they had no way of actually harming me at all.
One could say that speaking in strategic level, I am in a very good position right now — such a good one, that if I was a lot more careless and tyrannical and less... Well, myself — and started a war or invasion of Evelia, they would fall in quick succession.
As our carriage rode through the centre of the Kingdom, I, through the windows of the carriage, spotted many, many eyes of the common folk fall onto the carriage. They all looked surprised and some even a bit distressed.
I wasn't very suprised by this — after all, in Evelia, the Royal Carriages are very, very rarely used, only really ever if the King is going somewhere or if it is needed to transfer high ranking individuals to a battle field — considering that these Royal Carriages are made of extraordinary durable material and then laced with anti magic and extra physical protection circles.
We moved through the center of the Kingdom for a bit, before eventually the carriage turned towards the giant castle in the very back of the Kingdom. It wasn't too long now until I was brought infront of the King for our meeting.
I will not lie, the closer I got to the castle, the more nervous I grew. I couldn't help but feel like I was going blow away my entire cover and reveal to the King who I actually was on accident.
