Chapter 15: The Way Home: Silver Wings
Who is it? As the wide door was pushed open, an earthly light shone in like crystal.
Everyone looked back in amazement, and only the smiles on the lips of King Ethor and Alatix appeared.
We've been looking forward to you for a long time, children...
The Remington knight shook his shoulders slightly, not seeming to be surprised.
Under the interweaving of light and shadow, a young figure slowly appeared.
His blue eyes, as people expected, were like clear gems, and his fair skin was slightly bloody, radiating innocent and healthy vitality.
When he walked briskly under the bright dome, everyone's eyes merged into infinite hope.
"It's His Royal Highness Prince Ai Xingyan, then, dare to ask what you are doing?" Kloanya said softly.
King Ethor glanced at him, and then stepped forward to pick up his fallen child, with a look of concern.
Ai Xingyan looked up, and he saw his father's peaceful face, the slightly elongated wrinkles that seemed to have long since merged with the years of the Silver Wing.
"Didn't you kid let you stay in the library and study hard?" He let go of Ai Xingyan's hand and gently touched his son's head again.
"But the story in the garden is much more interesting than the one in the book... Didn't you say that princes should be free to pursue their own lives? He said with a straight head, but after seeing his father's serious face, he retracted slightly.
"Those things like Spirit Fox and Demon Bear are all beings hovering on the edge of time, and you can't live with them forever...," King Ethor said kindly.
"Well, but I believe that one day they will be as noble and pure as humans, aren't they, Father?" Ai Xingyan buried his head deep in his father's chest, and everyone on the side nodded approvingly.
"It's interesting, Your Highness."
As soon as they finished speaking, another boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old ran in again, and naturally, everyone's eyes became in awe again.
"His Highness Ai Xingyun... We intend to invite you to decide the future of the kingdom together. Seeing him strolling towards Croanya, Captain Parker shrewdly approached the two.
"Isn't that the same now?" He picked up Ai Xingyan's body, and the latter looked at him with a gentle gaze: "In the battle in three days, I am ready to lead the knights in your place and fight the enemy to the death." ”
Chloanya was silent, seemingly undecided, but then Captain Parker spoke.
"Just let the members of the Order vote, based on the current mainstream perception, I believe that His Royal Highness will win everyone's trust."
As soon as Parker finished speaking, Croanya turned away as if nothing had happened.
"No, just leave it to the prince, remember to bring the Meteor Bow and the speed of light magic." A calm voice passed through the brilliance of the bright dome and into Ai Xingyun's heart.
"When it's all over, I'll be waiting for your return with your father by the statue of the Silver Knight." Croanya spoke softly again, not noticing a trace of sorrow that flashed between Alatix's brow.
"Hey, if Xingya's kid is still here, it's a lot more lively here." King Ethor suddenly sighed from the sidelines.
"Sister Aixenya?" Prince Ai Xingyan raised his head and said curiously.
All of a sudden, everyone began to talk about it.
Didn't Princess Xingya be sent to the elven kingdom of Isor to learn magic by King Ethor when she was ten years old? Time has passed, and our king has begun to miss the old days again?
Their thoughts continued, but Ethel suddenly spoke again.
"In four months, Princess Aixingya will return from school, everyone remember, be sure to prepare gifts..."
And she also said that she will bring you a welcome news. As soon as he finished speaking, the Remington Knight nodded expectantly.
"By that time, endless flowers will pave the way for her return."
At the same time, the mechanic, Agirela, took Remington's hand and whispered to the side.
"I heard that King Ethor seems to be interested in marrying Princess Ishnaya to a nobleman recently, are you going to give it a try?"
"That's natural, as long as I return victorious, I'll be able to win the princess's heart, won't it?" He looked haughtily at Agilella, his gaze very determined.
"Okay, do you have anything else to say?" Ai Sail finally patted Ai Xingyun on the shoulder and said to the people nearby.
"I wish I could walk with Archmage Alatix." Captain Parker was directly the only member to respond.
"Yes." King Ethor said: "One more strength means one more hope, and it is the responsibility of every human being to bravely resist in the face of darkness." ”
"Then you can't stay with us, right?" I don't know at some point, Ai Xingyan actually slipped over quietly and took Captain Parker's left hand.
"Rest assured, during our absence, you will still grow up healthy and strong..."
"Hmm..." Ai Xingyan raised his head, a glint of hope beating on his happy face.
"That's the end of today's meeting, then." Archmage Alatix tapped the ground with his staff, and then a blue light flashed, and everyone's figures disappeared below the dazzling sky in an instant.
In this way, they greeted the arrival of tomorrow with enthusiastic cheers, but they did not know that they had already embarked on their own way home...
Silverwing's future didn't seem to be predicted by any of them.
Three days later, Ingres, the diplomatic ambassador, led the delegation to the Holy Wing, but when he arrived at his destination, he heard unacceptably bad news.
Remington and Vindward were victorious in the Battle of the Autumn Wind Field three days later, however, they were forced to disobey the order, and they stayed under the Blue Wolf City for a while at the request of their commander, only to be shocked when they returned.
The royal city is on fire, the bright light is shrouded in darkness, King Ethor is dead, the knight captain Chloanya and the mechanic Aegirella have mysteriously disappeared, and Vixi is still stranded on the front line, so they have no choice but to leave Star City with an unwilling will, and they are still worried about the fate of Ai Xingyun and Ai Xingyan along the way...
And Captain Parker, who followed Archmage Alatix, has not been heard from since...
The incredible upheaval has happened like a thunderbolt in the rising Silverwing Kingdom, and no one knows what kind of profound conspiracy and power are hidden in it...
It wasn't until Ai Xingyun broke through his own limits and stepped into the realm of sublimation that the western part of the entire continent once again ignited a flame of hope...
