Aldrich Parker, who was expelled from all groups of people in the Flower family after passing the sword skill test and blood aura as a virtue, was always hanging around the lower part of the training ground.
Then one day when Eclipse was walking around the garden, he was spotted. Eclipse can wander all over Castle Cailleach thanks to Reineza who presented Eclipse's Leopard form as a spirit guardian found by Raimon on his journey out of Castle Blood.
Spiritists are the best diviners of any Empire in history.
Formerly one of the biggest and best aristocratic families in the area of Humans was the Imperial Star family. Aldrich's talent had to blossom sooner or later to become a member who can help Raimon overcome difficulties.
The reason why everyone in the flower garden treated Aldrich badly was that normally anyone with a talent for fighting would awaken their blood aura between the ages of 12 and 14.
Spending so much time with Raimon earned Aldrich the reputation of being "the loyal dog."
It's hard to say what Aldrich went through before he came to Duchy Flower, but he always shows his shy side to many people.
The problem was that neither Eclipse nor Raimon knew how to get Aldrich's blood awakened.
Raimon was still trying to find some information in the books in the family library. Eclipse said that Aldrich has a star-like aura, a somewhat special bloodline since the only warriors registered with those characteristics never made a name for themselves in society.
Aldrich who gained distinction would no longer be a shy child that Raimon would recognize. He would be in command of a Raimon cavalry that would help him explore many areas on the Thunder Continent.
Raimon looked around. And as soon as he confirmed that no one was watching him, he handed all the remaining meat to Aldrich.
"Hey, Young Master."
"Shh. I have no appetite."
Raimon looked at Aldrich, pretending to eat until he finished the food.
"Aldrich Parker.... I'll take good care of you so you'll be my first adventuring friend."
Not just so he wouldn't lose talent.
Raimon felt a bit of homogeneity with Aldrich. Though he belatedly discovered his talent, he would find a way to help him awaken and have Eclipse teach him to control his spiritual power.
"If you are a potential ally, it doesn't hurt to have you by my side. There will be many days for different adventures and many dangers awaiting me."
Instead of turning him into the follower-style doll. It would be a better outcome for Raimon and Eclipse to guide him to become a guardian of the Flower Duchy.
When Raimon got up after lunch, Aldrich stayed by his side.
"I'll see you tomorrow. Oh, and tomorrow we're going to have a training session."
"All right, Aldrich. Good luck."
"Yeah."
Back in the room, Reineza, who had prepared bath water and clothes to change into, was waiting.
"Good job on the morning training, Young Master. Training with Duchess Dalia begins in three hours.
"Yes, thank you Reineza..."
Raimon, who had said so far, stopped walking.
"Damn it, Eclipse I told you to look for information from Aldrich and you're just eating You also need to help me become stronger...!"
"Oh, you're here, baby."
When I turned my head, I saw Eclipse lying on the couch and rummaging through the Imperial style bed with the Family coat of arms.
"You crazy dragon, what are you doing in broad daylight?"
"Me?" sleeping, I'm so tired from walking all over Castle Cailleach. haha, I do change over the years. I don't know what you humans gain from making your houses so complicated....".
"I know. Most likely a lot of things changed at home in the last thousand years, with your Leopard transformation. Did I tell you to investigate or not? Did you find anything? Did you get caught?"
"I'm not going to get caught, I won't. I have a right to freedom too, huh? Come here and get some sleep. This bed feels great, Reineza's pies just keep getting better."
Watching his focus on the bed with a big smile, your desire to take a punch goes through the roof.
However, you can't punch a dragon that has lived thousands of years longer than you. Raimon sighed and leaned down next to Eclipse.
"Well, that's great, what did you find?"
****
"An old book about the times of the Star Empire?"
To get Eclipse to talk about his findings Raimon had to ask Reineza to bake more strawberry and chocolate cakes.
In short, In the final Sacred Age of the Star Empire, the Knights of the Pentagram launched their final charge against nearly a billion normal beasts hiding in the barren lands of the north and some mythical Beasts.
Two hundred thousand warriors and knights shining with the star power blessed by the Imperial family launched a suicidal attack towards all those beasts that had been hiding since the Age of rebellion by all intelligent races with an ephemeral hope to shake and root out these beasts that were hiding from all intelligent beings of the Thunder Continent.
Under the veil of darkness and death, no one flinched. For the sake of their families and loved ones in their hearts, they were not afraid of death!
This battle was extremely tragic. When all the knights died in battle, the last Star Emperor, who was only one person, looked at the endless army of the beasts in all directions and smiled, full of starlight and indifference...
No one knows what happened next, but according to the records and the statement of the survivors not far away: a black and evil beastly "ocean" collided with starlight that constantly shone like a golden light, until four days later, the golden light gradually changed and weakened until it dissipated...
The sworn resistance of the Star Knights and Starfighters was recorded along with the fall of the Star Empire that lasted more than seven days! Shortly after the death of the Star Knights and Starfighters, countless armies composed of different tribes began to march to the front.
Countless warriors used their flesh and blood to resist the invasion of the ancient and mythical beasts again and again.
The fall of the Star Empire was ten thousand times more tragic than the northern war where Raimon's ancestor died, the Duchy had time to build the Red Fortress and only the strength of a single-family was used while in ancient times the strength of an entire Empire was not enough.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
