King Of Limbo

34 Chapter 34



Night had now fallen in the region and Aron, Jagu and Jin were yet to return to the airship. Scarlett slowly began to grow more anxious as she paced about the deck with crossed arms while Oxin simply leaned against the rail and looked at the scenery.

"I don't trust those bastards, what if they found something good and ran away leaving us with this stolen ship and hostages? We'd be screwed, dammit why didn't I consider that earlier?" Scarlett sighed as she continued to think of scenarios in her head.

Oxin who now got tired of answering them simply nodded her head while looking at the scenery still. However just as she was doing this, something caught her keen eye and she immediately jumped down onto the deck and looked at Scarlett.

"We have a problem...." She quickly said, causing Scarlett to rub her temples.

"Oh for miving sake!" She yelled in an annoyed manner before turning to walk back into the airship with Oxin behind her.

That something was none other than another airship. Not one, not two but a total of eleven airships. They moved in a formation such that each direction was secured tightly with the eleventh and largest airship being at the center.

On that very ship, six figures could be seen standing on the deck.

"We're finally here, it won't be long now." A young man with short silver-ish hair sporting a gold, silver and black armor with a large blade behind his back showed a smile as he spoke these words and turned to the five figures behind him.

"Good. The sooner we're done with it the better. I hope you're right about this Henry, it would be a shame as the heir of the Löwenstein Rosenberg family otherwise." The tallest and most muscular figure among the five spoke in an arrogant tone. He had short black hair with hazel eyes and wore silver and blue armor and had a long blade by his side.

The young man who was addressed as Henry chuckled at this and still maintained a friendly smile as he replied to the tall young man.

"You Vonstein's are as direct as always I see, especially you, yourself Brutas. But I suppose that's to be expected." Henry replied as if teasing the one called Brutas about something. Before Brutas could reply however another figure stepped in.

"Now, now. Can't we all just get along? I mean we are all here for the same purpose and it's thanks to Henry so why fight over it?" The one who spoke these words was a cheerful dark haired woman. Despite her friendly demeanor however, she wore an intimidating tight fitting black and red armor with an equally intimidating blade which she leaned against playfully.

"Ah yes, if it isn't the ever carefree Emilia of house Hoffenheim. Why don't you just focus on keeping quiet as the men talk like a good future wife to some family nobody. We all know you won't be inheriting anything" Brutas was sharp and clear with his words and showed an arrogant grin but Emilia remained smiling and didn't respond. The young woman next to her however...

"My sister may tolerate your insults Brutas but I am not so lenient. At the very least she has a chance to become heir but you? You will never come close to what your older brothers have achieved." The white haired young woman with a mature appearance and equally mature set of red, black and gold armor expressed her words without remorse, leaving Brutas gripping his sword right as he stared daggers at her.

"That's enough Esmeralda, can we not go a day without bickering over our pointless things. Sebastian and Juliet are ever quiet." Henry pointed out the only two figures who were yet to say anything.

"Well, because unlike you all I'm in the Scholar program. You know the house of Lovitz's strong point is our knowledge not battling strength like the rest of you." The young man addressed as Sebastian replied with a smile on his gentle face while shrugging his shoulders and running his hand over his dark hair. Unlike the other's present he didn't wear armor but instead wore the clothing one would expect from a regular traveling nobleman with only a small dagger on his hip.

"Tch. You just waste your status on commoner women and useless adventures. The Lovitz family will never change." Brutas clicked his tongue and showed his disgust towards the lifestyle Sebastian led but he wasn't the least bit offended by the remark.

"I apologize Juliet, this isn't how we should be acting around one other, don't you agree as the heir to the Lamarck family?" Henry could only sigh and turn to the silent blonde haired young woman with piercing eyes like no other. She wore a black and gold armor with only a small short dagger by her hip and a great sword sheathed on her back.

"I have no interest in the matter." The gentle looking young woman replied indifferently without bothering to look at anyone. Not even the usual arrogant Brutas added any words and only remained silent.

'Unlike the rest of us who've met prior to this, this Journey is our first time seeing her. Juliet Lamarck, first and only daughter to the second strongest person in all of Pesia... not even Brutas and Esmeralda can say things carelessly towards her, well at least her presence is stopping them acting up.' Henry thought before sighing and turning his gaze forward again.

'Hopefully Anastasia has already arrived, despite what they say everyone here needs to perform outstandingly to prove their worth if they are to attract strong individuals towards their factions...' Henry's expression turned serious as he looked forward with determination in his eyes.

Meanwhile back in the cave, Aron, Jin and Jagu had reached the end of the room which had two other stone doors.

"Let's just hope this one doesn't yield more trouble" Jin sighed as they all pushed the doors together and revealed another large open room, however unlike the room before, this one had gold, jewelry and strange artifacts as far as the eye could see.

"I'll never have to worry about money again." Jin showed a wide smile and began laughing but before he could go further, Aron tapped his shoulder and shook his head.

"Read the writing above." Aron pointed upward at some large writings that were on the furthest wall.

[ Take one item and leave or else ]

"Hmph. Or else what? We've already defeated those abominations." Jagu sneered before Aron tapped his shoulder and gestured for him to look behind them.

Once they did so, they could see numerous black circles covering the ground.

"Jagu, from now on stop talking." Jin's happiness ended there as he gave Jagu an unimpressed look.

"Doesn't seem like they'll attack. Let's just find the most valuable items that we can later sell." Aron quickly spoke before walking further into the room while looking around.

Jin and Jagu gave each other short glances before walking in and doing the same.
