Chapter 925 Echoes of Valor: Legends Unveiled

Reign took a seat at the table, trying to act nonchalant despite the whirlwind of thoughts swirling in his mind. Mia’s gaze bore into him, and he could sense her curiosity and perhaps a hint of suspicion.

“So, did you find your swords and armor, it did seem to take you quite a bit to find them,” Theron said, breaking the tense silence.

Mia had told him that Reign was coming and that he stayed back because he left his armor and weapons in the room and had to get them.

Reign nodded, grateful for the distraction. “Yeah, thanks to Nayle, they were in the bathroom for some reason, and well, there were other things there as well, so we had to get all of it outside, took a bit of time to do that.”

Mia raised an eyebrow, her suspicion growing. “In the bathroom, that’s quite odd.”

Reign shrugged, trying to appear casual. “Yeah, we must have been really out of it last night.”

“Anyway, how are you feeling this morning, Mia, you seemed pretty tired.”

Mia blinked, momentarily thrown off by the change in topic. “Oh, uh, yeah, I’m fine.”

“Just a bit groggy from all the celebrating, I guess.”

Reign nodded, relieved that his diversion seemed to work. “Yeah, same here, but hey, it was quite the party, wasn’t it?”

Theron chuckled, “That’s an understatement.”

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much revelry in one place.”

“Judging from last night, I don’t think it will be a problem for the two kingdoms to work together and uphold the peace, after all, almost all of them wish for it to continue.”

As they continued to chat, Reign couldn’t shake the lingering unease from his encounter with Nayle and Seraphina in the bathroom. He couldn’t believe what had transpired, and yet, the memory was vivid and undeniable.

Throughout breakfast, Mia’s suspicious glances and occasional probing questions kept Reign on edge. He tried his best to deflect and maintain his composure, but he couldn’t shake the feeling that she knew something was off.

Nayle and Seraphina arrived shortly after and sat down with them.

“Reign said you had to take some things out of the bathroom?” Mia asked Nayle who smiled brightly.

“Yeah, I found my bra, that’s a good thing.”

Mia blinked twice quickly while Theron coughed to break the awkward silence that took over while Seraphina sighed.

“Even some of my items were present there, it did take us some time to take it all out.”

“Yeah, not to mention that the three of us also had a quickie there, that took time as well,” Nayle added, stunning all the people present as she smiled brightly before bursting into laughter.

“Oh god, the looks on your faces, that’s just priceless.”

“That’s not funny, we’re trying to eat here,” Seraphina said with a stoic expression while Reign nodded at her words.The first reveal of this chapter happened through n(0/)vel(b)(j)(n).

“Yes, please do refrain from making such jokes Nayle, we don’t want people overhearing us and thinking it’s true.”

“I swear you guys can just be so stuck up at times, even if they hear, so what?”

“We’re leaving today, and we will probably never come back here again, what is there to worry about?”

Reign cleared his throat, attempting to steer the conversation away from Nayle’s provocative remarks. “Anyway, let’s focus on the future.”

“The two kingdoms are working together to build a new city in the borderlands, and we played a part in making that happen, I honestly do feel some pride in what we did here, even though we had mostly done so because it was a challenge from the system and the only way we could evolve.”

Theron nodded in agreement, “Indeed, it’s a remarkable achievement, and it’s only the beginning.”

“The bonds forged during the war and the celebration are just the foundation for greater cooperation and prosperity for both kingdoms, I do wish the best for all of them.”

Mia seemed to relax slightly, her attention shifting from Nayle’s antics to the discussion at hand. “You’re right, I just wonder how things will turn out in a couple of years, will the horrors of war be forgotten by the people who will enjoy peace and prosperity, or will something else happen.”

Nayle rolled her eyes, but there was a hint of seriousness in her tone. “Yeah, yeah, let’s save the deep talk for another time, right now, I’m hungry, and I want to enjoy this breakfast before we leave.”

“You know, you certainly did change a lot ever since we managed to win against Avargan,” Theron told Nayle while Seraphina scoffed.

“She was always like this, she just prefers to be serious when the situation calls for it, otherwise, she always acts like this, even worse at times.”

“Yeah, but that’s because there’s no need for me to continue being all uptight and serious, life isn’t fun if you always act like that, a bit of fun is needed.”

Seraphina sighed again and glanced at Nayle before shaking her head in defeat. “Alright, I’ll agree with you, but now, let’s savor the moment and the food.”

“Who knows when we will have a chance to sit and talk to one another like this again in the future?”

The group fell into a more relaxed conversation, discussing their plans for the day and reminiscing about the events of the previous night. Despite the lingering tension from earlier, there was a sense of camaraderie and shared purpose among them.

After breakfast, they bid farewell to the people in the dining room before making their way to the two kings and other important figures of the kingdom who were already expecting them.

The two kingdoms had come together in a show of unity and friendship, and now, it was time for Reign and his companions to part ways and return to their respective duties.

King Irodis and King Azkaran expressed their gratitude once more, promising to uphold the peace and cooperation that had been established and not squander the opportunity that Reign and the others had given them by uncovering the true mastermind behind the scenes.

As Reign and his companions prepared to depart, they were met with farewells and well-wishes from the people they had come to know during their time in this world. The temporary town was bustling with activity as preparations were made for the future city that would symbolize the newfound alliance between the kingdoms.

Reign, Mia, Theron, Seraphina, Nayle, and their companions gathered outside the grand hall, ready to embark on the next chapter of their journey, ready to go back to their respective worlds.

As they walked out of the hall, Aragos approached them, his expression somber yet hopeful.

“It’s been an honor to fight alongside you all,” Aragos said, his voice tinged with emotion. “We may have come from different backgrounds and faced our own trials, but together, we’ve achieved something truly remarkable.”

“Without you here, I doubt we would have ever found out just what was going on in time, with Elyndor manipulating me without me noticing, and Avargan patiently waiting for his chance, he would have won.”

“Thank you, for everything that you have done, and my apologies for the sacrifices you have made and the people you lost during the final battle.”

Reign and the others nodded to Aragos. In the final battle, they did lose people, and they were all powerless to stop them.

Had it not been for Reign losing control and attacking the angels, thus forcing them to try and kill him, which was why Quin had intervened in the end, even more of them would have died.

Reign took a step forward and shook Aragos’s hand, feeling a sense of kinship with him and the others. “Indeed, we’ve overcome many challenges together, and I have no doubt that our paths will cross again in the future.”

“I do hope so my friend, and if any of you find yourselves here in the future, please do let us know, you will always be welcome here, no matter the circumstances.”

“Likewise, please do tell us if any of your people appear on our respective worlds, we will do our best to help them out.”

And with those words said, Reign and the others walked outside before notifying the system that they wished to leave.

Their surroundings blurred and the five people all smiled at one another as the teleportation from the system activated itself, sending them away.

Nayle didn’t forget to tease Reign one more time, licking her lips and giving him a sensual stare before they all disappeared from the spot.

As they disappeared, Aragos stared at the spot they had previously been at before the two kings exited the building as well.

“Are you sure it was fine to not show them?” Azkaran asked Aragos who sighed and nodded his head.

“Trust me, they would probably feel a bit embarrassed, it’s for the best they don’t see it.”

Right outside of the building, at what was planned to be the city square, a large structure had been built and covered. They had told Reign and the others that they were making a monument for all the soldiers that lost their lives during the war, but that was a lie as those monuments had already been built in both capital cities, and a third one for this city.

Aragos nodded at the structure was uncovered, showing a grand sculpture of Reign and the others who had bravely fought and brought peace to the two kingdoms.

That was what they were going to put in the square, for everybody to see and know just who had helped them so much. Their story would turn into legend and all people of the two kingdoms would know their names.
