Phantasia: The Princess Knight - Chapter 417
Alicia made Nomi a wheelchair and brought him over to Tang An who had just woken up after a few hours of rest. “Grandmother…” Nomi said softly, his eyes red. She was the one who risked a lot in order to bring him back to life, he was truly grateful.
“Silly child, why are you crying? You are my grandson so there is no reason to cry.” Tang An looked warmly at Nomi.
Alicia had made her father spill everything about the revival process which made her depressed. She would have preferred to use her own soul than to let her mother suffer. But She also knew her mother would feel the same way. “Mom why? We could have figured out a different method… Not that I am not happy for Nomi but still…”
“Akari, I did this because he is my grandson. He is someone you adopted and care for. As his grandmother, the least I can do is help him a little.” Tang An knew Alicia would be like this, this is why she did not want to tell her.
Alicia stroked the top of Nomi’s head, her face showing a bitter smile. She still would have wanted to figure out a way where no one would be harmed. “Mom… Thank you… You gave me my Nomi back. I will go back and get more soul revival grass to help you recover faster.”
“No need. Akari, I have a way to repair my own soul. So do not worry. Just take care of your kids for now. Also, go back north and retrieve what I left for you. It is something good.” Tang An replied.
“Mmm… I will.” Alicia smiled and gave Tang An a hug and kiss on the cheek.
After spending a few hours keeping Tang An company, Alicia and Nomi said their goodbyes and went to the castle for the upcoming party. King Augustus went all out. He called every noble and official to join in on the festivities. He even went as far as to set up a celebration in the capital for the commoners to have fun with. There was even a live stream of the whole event on the magi vision.
Holding up a glass of wine standing on an elevated portion of the floor, King Augustus smiled at the crowd in front of him. “Today I wish to thank everyone for coming to celebrate my Grandson recovering from his illness. Although he is not yet able to walk, in due time he will regain full function of his body. On this day I would also like to announce that my Grandson, Nomi Alastine, will now be granted the title of Knight, and also the title of Prince Nomi. Along with this good news, I will now officially announce that My granddaughters Frey and Destiny will also be granted the title of Princess of Alastine. This was something that should have been done many years ago but with all the incidents that kept occurring, I decided to take this occasion to announce this.
“Alastine has been around many, many years now. I have built this country from scratch and hope that as time passes on It will continue to flourish. I have decided in the years to come when the Crown Princess returns from her journey, the rule of Alastine will be passed over to her.”
Alicia turned her head and looked at King Augustus, she knew this would come sooner or later but she figured it would be a few hundred years from now. But after thinking about how long King Augustus had ruled this country carrying the lives of millions on his shoulders the entire time, she knew he must be tired and wanted a break from it all.
Alicia stepped forward and bowed to King Agustus as she smiled. “Royal Father, Although it will be a few years yet before I leave, on the day I return, I will accept the crown.”
Upon hearing her words not only did the people in the hall cheer but those that were watching the event on the magi vision also cheered. In the hearts of the people of Alastine, Alicia’s repeated sacrifice in protecting them and their homeland was something they would never forget. To them, she was the hero every man, woman, and child, young and old looked up to.
After what was just supposed to be a grand feast, Alicia and Blake retired to their room. In the cradle not too far away Destiny slept silently. Alicia rested her head on Blake’s chest. The two were sitting on a cushioned bench that faced two large windows staring up at the night sky. “Tomorrow we will need the nannies to take care of Destiny for the day. I want you to go with me to the north to retrieve what my mother left.”
“Do you know what it is?” Blake asked.
“No, mom won’t tell me and dad changes the subject every time I ask. But she did say it was something good…” Alicia said as she shifted her body to get more comfortable. She was tired, it had been a long day.
“Then we will set out first thing in the morning.” Blake said as he kissed the top of Alicia’s head.

Machine Empire…
“Dale, is everything ready?” Charles asked as he looked at the man standing in front of him.
“Your Highness everything is ready. I was able to procure ten million numbers without chips. They only need someone to take command of them and they will be operational. I have also packed ten years of replacement arms and legs for the Princess. Also upon your request, I have gained all the blueprints on the latest technologies. Everything is inside the space cube.” Dale had no idea why he was gathering all these things, but he did not dare ask the man what he was doing with them.
“Good I will be leaving for some time. I leave this place to you. If those bastards try to do anything just blow the whole damn place up!”
