Ace and Mark followed the archidon soldier into a large wooden building. There were archidon soldiers guarding on each side of the door.
"What is your business for seeing the elder Kochisuke?" One of the soldiers asked.
"They are the heroes that saved our town, Elder Kochisuke summoned them here." The soldier leading Ace and Mark answered.
"My apologies, they may enter." The soldier said.
The huge doors then opened and revealed a huge hall with coloured glass as windows depicting the gods that the archidons worship. There were also many soldiers along the sides of the hall protecting an old man standing in front of a grand chair.
"Ah, welcome saviours of Timber Town. I am Kochisuke, Elder of Timber Town." The old man stated.
"You are welcome Elder Kochisuke, may I ask why is the town under siege by marauders?" Ace asked.
Kochisuke sighed. "Because of the war between our nation and the swordwrath on the west, smaller towns like ours lack simple protection from other enemies." Kochisuke stated.
"Anyway, we would like to thank you for saving our town. If it weren't for you and your team, our town would have been over taken by the marauders. Is there anything you would want as a reward? Take anything as you like, gold, weapons and women." He stated.
After hearing women, Mark started drooling. Ace glared at him.
"Actually, we are from the order empire and I am the son of King Arthur, the king of the order empire." Ace stated.
After hearing him, the soldiers in the hall immediately reload their bows and take their aim on them.
"Halt!" Kochisuke shouted.
"Sir, these are inhabitants from another rival country that declared war on us! We must disposed of them immediately!" One of the soldiers shouted.
"Don't be hasty! He is the prince of the order empire! Killing him will cause the order empire to invade us. That will be disastrous!" Kochisuke commanded.
After the town elder shouted, the soldiers put down their bows.
"Thank you Elder Kochisuke, for sparing us." Mark said.
"No matter. Now, may I asked why the order empire would send a small group of soldiers to the archidon territoy?" Kochisuke asked.
"My father had given us a mission to meet the leader of the archidon faction to do some diplomacy!" Ace stated.
"The order empire would like to do diplomacy with Queen Apricot?" Kochisuke asked?"
"Yes, therefore we must make our way to the archidon capital, Aok city." Ace said.
The elder sighed. "Do you know the way to completely annihilate a faction?" Kochisuke asked Ace.
"Yes, the only way to defeat or conquer a faction is to destroy the race statue in their capital. Once the statue has been destroyed, the faction will have to surrender." Ace replied.
"That's right, therefore I cannot take the risk to escort you to the capital. You may be plotting something to destroy our race statue." Kochisuke said.
"I understand Elder Kochisuke. But we are sent by our king to do diplomacy." Ace said.
Kochisuke looked into Ace's eyes. There is fire in his eyes, burning with passion.
"Well, at least you are not lying." Kochisuke said.
After thinking for a while, Kochisuke made up his mind.
"Very well, I will believe you. And therefore I will let one of my strongest soldiers to follow you to Aoks City to meet Queen Apricot!" Kochisuke Announced.
"Thank you Elder Kochisuke." Axe thanked him while bowing.
The archidon soldiers in the hall are stunned, they could not believe that their elder have agreed outsiders to meet their queen.
"Thank you Elder, we will now take our leave." Ace stated and walked out of the hall with Mark.
"General! Find the best soldier you have now to escort them to Aoks City." Kochisuke commanded.
"Yes sir!" The general said and rushed out of the hall, towards the archidon campsite.
Archidon campsite at the outskirts of Timber Town.
"Hey Grace! It is time for your next mission!" a soldier shouted.
"Yes sir, give me 10 minutes to get ready." a blond hair women replied.
"So my mission is to escort 4 order empire soldiers to Aoks City huh. Alright then. Grace said to herself.
