King's Raid X Male Reader (Xenoblade Chronicles)

Part VIII Chapter 9

(Y/n) Pov

I ran and found the others.

Roi: You're late. We were starting to get worried.

(Y/n): Sorry, I just ran into some dumb asses.

Cleo: Idiots?

(Y/n): They look like imperial soldiers, but they were powerful...

Morrah: You seem pretty relaxed while saying that.

(Y/n): Hey, if we ever run into that man who showed up at the end again...

Roi: What if we meet him?

(Y/n): I got away the first time, but I'm not sure if we'll be able to get away from him.

Cleo: What do you mean? Why do you have doubts?

(Y/n): I think he let's me go on purpose.

Cleo: That's strange.

Roi: Well, I also ran into some annoying people as well.

Cleo: Roi...

Roi: It's fine. If I run into him again, I'll have to say as well. It won't be like last time.

Cleo: That would be nice. That's why once we're done with this place, Roi and I are going to visit the Tower of Sage.

Kasel: The Tower of Sage?

Cleo: Yeah, I call myself an archmage, but I'm still a baby compared to Grandpa. I understand my skill level and it's been a while since I've seen old man's face. I can't make any scrolls right now, so we can't all go together. But I'll bring back a bunch from the tower. We can all go meet grandpa.

(Y/n): But you said once this is over, we all get to see my children.

Cleo: Oh yeah, that first, then go meet grandpa.

Roi: Yes, I'm sure Great Sage Dominics will be able to answer a lot of our questions.

Maria: We prioritized checking out the buildings that were intact and we're sure of it now.

Roi: Sure of what?

Maria: I don't know how long it's been, but these ruins are currently being overpowered again, and that's why the Imperial army rushed to the site.

Morrah: And I've noticed a lot of Malduk's traces all over the place. There were also traces of this necromancy here.

Kasel: Malduk?!

Morrah: It seems like the mess we saw when we arrived was caused by a fight between Malduk and the Imperial Army.

Cleo: He's really keeping busy, isn't he? Doesn't the Dark Legion have anyone else other than him?

Maria: Hah hah. That makes sense.

Morrah: But it means he is very loyal to the Dark Legion. The members of the Dark Legion don't have strong ties like humans. The ones who are acting as officers that destroyed the kingdom slowly hid away after the defeat of Angmund.

Maria: Malduk was once human, yet he has become more demonic than the actual demons Strange...

Cleo: Anyways! I'll make sure to beat up that pile of bones!!

Maria: Do you see that pillar over there?

Roi: You mean that large tower?

Maria: I heard Malduk talking about it. That tower collects massive mana, and it acts like a transmitter for large groups of people or objects. And if a place like that is staying active, it must mean that there is a clue about Kyle there. Though, we have no idea what it might be.
