Return of Legends.

In the Watanabe Kingdom it has already been 3 days since Haruto started his journey, a peaceful air hung over the Kingdom. Many civilians were in high spirit the country had been at peace for roughly three centuries, though words of the Zestril movements have already reached their ears. The citizens were all confident in the protection of the Watanabe Kingdom the Watanabe Kingdom was one of the four great nations on this continent, so even though the Zestril Kingdom has made their move the people continued their everyday lives without care.

Inside the royal palace located inside an extravagant dining room the royal family was having lunch. Many dishes could be seen placed all over the large table, the scent of each dishes stirring the apatite of those present. Scarlett was staring out of space with a dazed expression on her face.

"Umm... Scarlett are you okay?"

Racheal who notices her dazed expression called out to her in confusion. Hearing the words of her little sister Scarlett came back to her senses while showing a wry smile on her face.

"Don't worry everything is fine, I was just thinking about something."

"Haruto maybe?"

Hinata said staring at her sisters face with a wide grin.

"Uh, no, no... That's not it, well it would be a lie if I said I wasn't thinking of him."

She said while bringing her cup of water to her mouth to cover up her embarrassment. The King and Queen both looked amused seeing the red face of their daughter, it was an reaction they had rarely seen.

"He has been gone for three days now, right? He is probably still traveling through the forest bordering the Watanabe Kingdom and the Alberta Kingdom. It should take him approximately 3 weeks to get to the Albanian Kingdom from here."

The Queen said bringing her finger to her cheek while giving a rough estimate of the distance between the Kingdoms. The closest Kingdom near the Watanabe is the Alberta Kingdom however that Kingdom is currently closed off to all outsiders and it is unknown as to when it will be reopened again.

So, in order to get to the Albanian Kingdom, one would have to traveled around the Alberta Kingdom. Which would take up a lot of time the forest is also home to many dangerous beasts and other dangers. Usually, whenever someone wish to travel towards the Kingdom of Albanian, they would just take a flying ship or a ship that travel through sea, but those options are only available to people who are wealthy or important figures. Commoners never boarded such ships nor has there ever been cases where they have the funds needed to board one.

"Well I'm sure he can take care of himself wherever he ends up."

The King said bringing his fork to his mouth. Everyone nodded their heads before they resumed eating their food.

*Knock*

A loud knock came from the other side of the large two-sided wooden door. Gathering the attention of those inside the dining room. A young maid who was standing closest to the door promptly went to check who it was before asking the permission of the king.

"Your majesty, Sir James is requesting your presence in the secret room."

The maid said with a soft voice.

"I understand but, is there a reason for the urgency?"

The King asks confusedly the same went for the other royal family who also seems to be a bit confused. The maid nodded her head and said with a clear voice.

"The Secret holy Sword of black flames is glowing. Sir James of the royal guard also said that he could sense summoning magic being used, he theorized that the legendary heroes are going to returned soon."

"What?"

The faces of the royal family were all simultaneously dumfounded by the news. The King as well as the other members of the royal family all promptly made their way towards the secret room, the room where the Kingdoms national treasures are hidden, the holy sword of black flames was one of the divine treasures that were given to the Kingdom by the goddess of fire long ago along with the knowledge of the spell capable of summoning the four heroes.

(Could the return of the heroes have something to do with the demon that suddenly attacked Scarlett and young Haruto a few weeks ago? Or does it have something to do with the recent movement of the Zestril Kingdom, the Zestril Kingdom should have a hero of their own if I'm not mistaken, will have to do everything we can to support the hero summoned to our own Kingdom)

The King thought as he made his way towards his destination. After roughly 10 minutes of walking, they all stopped at a wide wooden door measuring roughly 20 cm in height, the maid then promptly opened the door allowing the royal family to step inside, the door then made a creaking sound before opening up. What greeted them was a large room with beautiful chandelier hanging from the high ceiling. The interior was design with beautiful square tiles going across. Despite the fact that no one hardly ever goes to this room the room was extremely clean and was in perfect condition.

The room had four pillars connecting the ground and the ceiling.

"Oh, your majesty you finally came."

A tall muscular man who seems to be in his late thirties said. He was dressed in Knightly attire with a neatly trimmed beard and dark brown hair that was trimmed extremely short on his head.

"Could you explained the situation more clearly."

The King said looking at the sword which was sheathed into its scabbard. Despite being there for hundreds of years the sword never lost its divine radiant, the scabbard was also in perfect condition. There have been many people who had tried to use the power of the legendary holy sword however none of them could manage to pull the sword from its sheath, the holy sword refused all of them without exception.

"Yes, your Majesty. I will explain everything."

The Knight said lowering his head but before he could explain anything, magic circle appeared while letting out a dazzling glow blinding all onlookers.

The King and all those who were present quickly covered their eyes with their hands. Sir James was able to keep one eye opened in case there was an attack it was his job as the captain of the knight's guard to protect the royal family. The light only lasts an instant when it finally died down. A young boy was now laying in the middle of where the magic circle had appeared earlier.

The boy opened his eyes and made a confused face while observing his surroundings. He was probably greatly confused about the sudden change of his surroundings. The King stared at the boy for a while before slowly walking up to him, James tried to stop him in case there was any danger however the King used his hands gesturing at him to stand down.

"It's nice to meet you Sir hero, I'm the King of the Watanabe Kingdom."

The king said while showing a bright smile on his face.
