Rise Of The Eternal King - 38 Chloe's House

Lyra nodded her head and replies back, “Okay Chloe, tell us if you ever want us to go. We wouldn’t want to trouble you after all.”

Chloe gave a nod and these two seemed to have decided everything by themselves without even asking for Saito’s opinion.

Chloe then turned her head towards Saito and says, “We should ask Edwin, if he is comfortable to come to my house or not.”

Saito stepped forwards while facing his hand on Lyra’s shoulder around her body, “Since Lyra doesn’t mind staying at Chloe’s place. We shall stay there for the time being.”

Chloe noticed Saito’s gesture and his words directly stated how much he cared about her decision. She was a little depressed but she was careful to not show it on her face.

The other heroes and the council members were speechless when they heard Chloe inviting Saito into her house. They couldn’t believe that Chloe was still associating herself with Saito even though he killed Hero Jade.

They started discussing with each other, “What should we do? Who will inform about this to Renya? Renya won’t like that fact that Edwin has started to live together with Chloe. We never thought he would be saved from the punishment and that too when the Vice Master had spoken up.”

“Renya should take around another month before coming back from his training in the dungeon.” Another one spoke up.

The one whose tongue was burnt by Saito also said with a snort, “Edwin is far too arrogant to behave so rashly, he will understand his own place when he meets with Renya. He is nothing in front of the True Hero.”

“Yeah… But don’t you guys think that Edwin has changed? The color of his flames had changed and even though Hero Jade isn’t that powerful as compared to most of us, Edwin had never been able to defeat him before. It looks like he has grown significantly stronger than before.”

“The extent of his power is still not enough to trouble Renya. He has grown stronger but don’t forget that he just caught me by surprise. If I was ready for the attack, I would have dispersed it before it even touched me.”

Saito naturally ignored all the useless discussion the heroes were doing behind his back. He and Lyra followed Chloe towards her house. It was in the western part of the city, most of the heroes were given their own residences by the Union however, since the Hero Edwin wasn’t strong enough before, he wasn’t given his own residence.

They soon reached Chloe’s house and entered it. Saito entered the house, Chloe spoke out with a smile, “Edwin, you can take the room next to the Living Room. And Lyra, you can take the room besides his.”

Saito shook his head and replies to her, “No need to give us two rooms. We will just stay in one. Isn’t that right Lyra?”

Lyra gave a nod and agreed to Saito’s words, “Yes… It would be too much take the two rooms. We are husband and wife; we are very comfortable to sleep with each other.”

Chloe had a blush on her face as she thought that they meant it in a dirty way. Saito didn’t try to explain her. He let her think whatever she wanted and entered the room along with Lyra.

Lyra placed down her bag before she was confronted with questions from Saito, “Lyra… Why did you flare your magic? Did something happen just as I expected it?”

Lyra slowly nodded, she started to speak.

Lyra proceeded to tell him that a middle-aged man appeared in front of her and was trying to gather information about the two of them. Lyra didn’t give him any useful information other than her own name and their relationship.

That man continued to try and convince her to break off the relationship with Saito saying that he wasn’t good enough for a beauty like her. She needed to be someone much more capable than Saito.

Though Lyra was fiercely against this notion, the middle-aged man didn’t seem to give up and continued to tell her that Saito will be punished severely for the crimes he had committed.

He said that since she was his wife, she needed to do something to reduce the charges against Saito. That guy didn’t even try to hide the lust present within his eyes as he made his move towards Lyra.

As soon as his right-hand touched Lyra, she released a burst of magic and Joergen appeared in front of her. Smashing his head into that man and releasing thunder from his horn, the sudden attack heavily injured the man.

The guy, Harijima Arayoshi who had taken Saito to the hall appeared while shouting, “Master! Master!” He took that guy away in fear that Joergen will kill him.

Joergen once again blended back into her shadow while she waited for Saito to come out of the hall.

Saito was unexpectedly calm after hearing her words. He hugged her tightly and said, “I am happy that I left Joergen with you to protect you. I know you are strong enough to protect yourself however, it would be too soon if you expose the Nature Magic here.”

While on the outside, he remained as calm as a still lake. In the inside, he was raging, the rage similar to a tsunami which was ready to envelop the whole city and drown everyone.

He didn’t want to show his rage to Lyra and worry her so he acted calmly. However, in his mind, he had declared that guy as deceased.

There were just somethings he wasn’t willing to tolerate, one of them was someone putting their hand over his wife and forcing onto her.

There was no compensation he would accept other than cutting off that hand and feeding it to his pets. He was thinking ‘Iris… You must have scanned the magic signature when I was in the Hall. You must have also scanned the magic signature of that guy who placed his hand onto Lyra. The next time I see him or he is near me, make sure to inform me.’

[Yes master!] Iris had a neutral tone as it said that and made sure to remember Saito’s order.

Chloe knocked their door and spoke out loud, “Edwin, can I talk to you about something? Alone…”

Saito tilted his head towards Lyra and saw her nod with a gentle smile on her face, “Go~ She is a good person~ She is letting us stay here after all~”

Saito gave her a nod and a kiss on the cheek before saying, “However, my Lyra is certainly the best. I will come back soon.”

Saito left the room with a calm look over his face, he saw Chloe looking at him with an anxious expression.

Chloe pulled him towards her own room by his arm, Saito was a little surprised to see her room right beside the one she assigned to him.

After they were inside her room, she released her hold over his arm and anxiously asked him, “Why did you marry her? Did you really forget about me Edwin?”

Saito found himself unable to reply to her questions, he could only say, “Chloe, I truly don’t remember anything from my past. During my fight with the Great Demon King Zoldron, an attack from his blunt hammer hit me on my head and injured me. It was fortunate that he didn’t check up my body or else he would have realized that I am still alive.”

“That was the latest thing I remember before I lost my consciousness and woke up. I even forgot how to use my powers and slowly regained them by fighting the beasts in that cave.” Saito slowly explained Chloe.
