Purple Lightning Emperor - Chapter 39 A New Journey

The next day

Dawn. The sky was barely lit.

within Shad’s room.

” Shad my son, take these with you.” With a wave of Saskia’s hand, a top of Shad’s bed, seven large sets of luxurious clothing as well as some other miscellaneous items appeared out of nowhere.

“Mother.” Shad couldn’t help but say. ” The maid has already prepared everything, clothing, and tools.”

The old man that was close to the bed snapped as he coldly said.” If your mother tells you to take them, then do it you little bastard.”

Ever since after Shad’s coming of age ceremony, his great-grandfather always looked at him with a strange expression on his face and got mad easily everything he talked to him. He was acting weird which was something he never does, especially with Shad. Shad still had no idea why his old man was acting this way but he still did not plan to find out.

Still, listening to his old man words, Shad’s heart shook as he was looking at his mother. Saskia’s gaze remained on her son, and Shad could clearly sense the boundless, infinite love within her eyes. Ever since he was young, his mother had taken care of him in every way possible.

While some people might see him as a weird little guy due to his clothing choices and the way he behaved himself. Her mother has always seen him as the pearl in her eyes and was like everything to her. For him to go somewhere far away from the Imperial capital on his own, must have frightened her. she did not care if Shad was strong or not, She still wanted him to stay with her.

After setting out everything, Shad bid goodbye to his mother and went straight to the imperial gate where his four Imperial Knights were waiting for him including one hundred soldiers. His two brothers had already gone to overseer their respective kingdoms, which leave only him.

Today Shad was dressed in official battle clothing. On his back, a blindly scarlet cape billowing behind with Djage insigma stitched upon the cape. his face was expressionless as he was walking out of the palace.

Outside the imperial palace gate, there was two massive flag held by two soldiers. The flagpole was at least fifteen meters long, rising high up in the skies. Above, a seven meters long and four meters wide huge flag hung upon it, swaying gently in the morning wind.

The flag was lined up with gold thread, with the main symbol upon it a huge flame lion with a pair of wings on its back. Two huge letters were inscribed below the Lion-, Djage Empire.

As for the four Imperial Knights that were waiting for him in front of the gate. Each of them wore gold armor and a fine red robe and were heavily armed.

There were three middle-aged men and one woman. Shad estimated that each of them was at least an early 6th rank warrior. Furthermore, he was surprised to see the woman because she was none other than the woman that was protecting him in secret while he was training in the mountain not too far from the Imperial capital. The knights weren’t chosen by Shad but by his Imperial father, as such, he had no idea who they were.

Right behind the four imperial knights was a large and luxurious horse carriage, pulled by eight fine horses. The driver of that carriage was a ferocious looking warrior clad in black full heavy armor. That warrior sat there on the driver seat and held the reins with both of his hands waiting for the 4th prince to get in.

Behind the massive horse carriage, there at least a hundred soldiers in full black heavy armor as well, sitting upon a warhorse each of them. Those soldiers gave off a bloodthirsty aura as though they had been fighting in the battle field all their lives. Most of them had scars all over their faces.

As Shad Looked upon the imposing sight before him, he couldn’t help to praise his empire. The djage empire was powerful indeed and was worthy to be one of the four overlords of the Egul continent. Looking at those massive spikes maces, immense battle axes, and longswords, Shad knew that all those soldiers had real battle experience and were not to be trifled with. Despite wearing clean clothes, their bodies still reeked with the scent of blood.

Nonetheless, Shad still did not get too overconfident because of this envoy because he knew that the Djage empire was not the strongest of the four empires, and each of the empires had forces similar to his empire or even more.

Aside from that, he knew that the trip to the Mulan kingdom wasn’t going to be an easy one despite having such forces accompanied him. There were plenty of people who wished him to fail, and plenty of other more that will try to stop him before he could even get there, not to mention some other invisible enemies that he wasn’t aware of.

Taking a deep breath, Shad look back at the imperial palace where his mother and his great-grandfather were looking at him. His mother had a reluctant look on her face while his old man looked more like annoyed for some reason.

” Damn it, you can head out now the little bastard.” angrily shouted his old man. ” If you are going to leave, then leave. Be straightforward about it.”

With that, the old man left while angrily muttering something.

” Mother I am leaving now, tell father emperor not to worry when he came back.” Shad looked at his mother and then, with a turn of his head, he went into the large luxurious carriage and left for another adventure.
