Chapter 36: Declaration

Upon entering the conference room, Kraftvoll immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Excellencies!"

All the supreme seishin practitioners inside the room were shocked by this kid in front of them except of course his master, King Blaire.

Their surprise was only justified because this kid, Kraftvoll, was able to withstand immense pressure from them which were the six supreme practitioners of the Holy Alliance.

As practitioners of the highest rank attainable by mortals, the pressure they emit was enormous. Although Kraftvoll looked like he was okay on the outside, he was extremely crushed inside.

In the past two months, King Arthur had been training Kraftvoll, not just his inner seishin strength, but also in mental strength.

When confronting higher-ranked seishin practitioners, the weaker ones were easily subdued using the superior one's mental pressure but if they train their mental strength this will help them gain more chances to win battles.

After a few moments, Kraftvoll showed a sign of weakness, after all, he's been exposed to these six most powerful people of the Holy Alliance.

'Oh, he just reached his limit.' High Lord Althidon thought to himself.

"So you are King Arthur's student, huh," said High Lord Althidon.

All the peak experts felt the immense potential of this kid. Since the intention of King Arthur was just to introduce Kraftvoll to the core member of the Holy Alliance, he immediately ordered Kraftvoll to go back.

After Kraftvoll bowed and went on his way, King Arthur turned his sight to the supreme experts beside him.

He said to them, "He was the main reason for the recent attack on my Kingdom. And as all of you had seen, he was worth declaring war for. That kid will eventually lead us to win against the Dark Alliance like it was when our Stolz family's first patriarch, Venerable Heavenly Seishin God Verrater von Stolz, led us to a century of dominance in the continent."

Everyone nodded in agreement with King Arthur's declaration. That's how enormous Kraftvoll's future prospects were, everyone in the Holy Alliance core members wanted to monopolize this kid's potential.

Even the Dark Alliance wanted Kraftvoll to their ranks. But, this was all impossible now, in one of their attempt to recruit Kraftvoll, they unknowingly killed the parents of the prodigy. This was something irreconcilable for Kraftvoll.

"Okay, let's start planning our war strategies!" declared King Arthur.

Now that everyone in the conference knew the importance of protecting Kraftvoll, they started talking about war strategies.

Even if they didn't give that much significance to Kraftvoll's potential, what the Dark Alliance had done this time was too much and they couldn't let it slide this time.

As the Holy Alliance meeting occurred, Kraftvoll was playing with Princess Kyomi in the Garden inside Feuersturm Castle.

These two kids were waiting for Belle to arrive.

As the core members of the Holy Alliance convened, the royal and noble families of the three races, that belonged to the Holy Alliance, were having their social gathering in Feuersturm Castle's main hall.

Stolz royal family was the one who was receiving and entertaining the guests that came from across the Walkiria Kingdom and the other two kingdoms that belonged to the Holy Alliance.

As the party continued, Belle has arrived with her grandfather, the previous patriarch of Schild Family.

In the previous day, before Kraftvoll and princess Kyomi decided to go home, they invited Belle to go to today's event so that they can play together.

Even though Princess Kyomi had duties in the social gathering, she sneaked away from the party with Kraftvoll just to play with Belle.

Later on, Belle finally came to the castle's garden. As soon as she saw the two of them, she greeted them with a wonderful smile on her face. They started doing all sorts of things together after being together.

After all the painful experiences that Kraftvoll and Belle had faced, these were the only times that they were able to forget all the sorrows they've been through. That was why they were always excited to time like these.

Time passed by like that. While they were playing around, something suddenly popped in Kyomi's mind.

She asked the other two kids, "You two are the same age as I am, right?"

Kraftvoll and Belle nodded in agreement to what Princess Kyomi had said.

"Then, next year the two of you will start attending an academy too?" said Kyomi.

"I heard from Master that I'm going to attend Verrater Academy after eight months. He also said that I will be taking the talent assessment seven months from now with you," replied Kraftvoll.

"Grandpa also said that I will be also taking the talent assessment so that I will be able to enter Verrater Academy. He said that he is confident of my talent." Belle proudly stated to the other two.

"I hope that we become classmates!" Princess Kyomi said while smiling.

These kids spent the rest of the party time playing in the castle's garden.

After the meeting of the core members of the Holy Alliance, they gathered all the nobles of the three races to gather for an announcement.

All the pillars of the Holy Alliance that attended stood in front of the nobles and royalties of the Holy Alliance.

King Arthur took one step and declared, "As all of you know, the Dark Alliance went too far this time. They actually dared to attack one kingdom that belonged to our Holy Alliance. With this embarrassment that they've put us to, we, the pillars of the Holy Alliance, decided to declare war to the Dark Alliance!"

Even though everyone in the hall thought this was something that was inevitable, they still felt uneasiness about the declaration because this was not a simple matter. This was another interracial war! The previous interracial war had taken millions of lives from continents' total population.

After saying the announcement, the pillars of the Holy Alliance exited and joined the party.

When night came, the people who attended the party started to go to their own homes. And that concluded the Holy Alliance meeting.

After this meeting, all the pillars or core members of the Holy Alliance will start their arduous preparation for the war. After all, this was not a simple undertaking.

Like the previous great interracial wars, this great interracial war will also be happening in the anarchic land of Krieg Verwustet.

When the social gathering for the Holy Alliance concluded, it was also time for Belle to go home.

"Goodbye, Kraftvoll, Kyomi! See you again!" said Belle while waving her hands.

Belle and Kyomi became closer together to the point that they called each other without any formalities. Both of these two kids had the same situation about making friends. Their social status prevents them from making any friends, which was why they were happy to be able to be friends with each other.

The other two waved back to Belle as she went home.

A voice can be heard that said, "Hey, you two. You better rest now."

When the two turned their backs, they saw that it was King Arthur that said that.

"Okay, father!"

"Okay, master!"
