As these phrases echoed all through the coliseum, an amazing portion of the viewers stopped what they have been doing and seemed within the route of the origin of the voice. After realizing whose voice that was, just a few folks within the viewers let loose mild gasps, shocked that such folks have been keen to leap away from the seating space and head straight to the place Valyr and the guards have been.

As a frown adorned Lucas’ face as he watched two figures from the seating space make their method to the place they have been, a composed smile appeared on Valyr’s face as he watched the 2 figures moved nearer. Nonetheless, he was inwardly full of fear for the 2, despite the fact that he appreciated their gesture.

“Are you two going to bar town guards from finishing up their duties to detain this particular person?” Lucas shifted his gaze to the 2 that had appeared earlier than them, his expression solemn. “In that case, then we must detain you two as properly on the depend of hampering town guards’ responsibility.”

“We cannot.” In response to Lucas’ phrases, Arcenne frivolously shook her head. “As a substitute, we simply needed to ask if there was a means for Valyr to not must go to jail.”

“There may be none.” Lucas shook his head. “Although he had no clue that the life and loss of life duel he had participated in was not permitted by town, he nonetheless dedicated homicide nonetheless. That alone is greater than sufficient cause for him to be detained.”

“And right here I assumed I would not must resort to doing this.” Letting out a low sigh, Arcenne took in a deep breath earlier than releasing her aura in its entirety, permitting the guards, Valyr, in addition to all the viewers to really feel the air of the Aristocracy emanating from her. “As a Countess of the Astella Area, I, Arcenne Stelyra, order you to free Valyr proper this instantaneous. He shall be underneath my supervision after this, so you do not have to fret about him wreaking havoc within the metropolis.”

“So it is really Countess Stelyra.” Lastly realizing who one of many two figures have been, Lucas gave Arcenne a respectful bow as a bitter smile appeared on his face. “Regardless that I’d be keen to grant any of your different requests, this request of yours is considerably troublesome to meet as this includes the security of town.”

“In entrance of two nobles? Actually?” In response to Lucas’ phrases, Wells allowed his aura to cowl all the battleground. Although it was weaker when it comes to depth resulting from his inferior power, the the Aristocracy it gave off was solely barely inferior to Arcenne’s. “As a Viscount of the Astella Area, I, Wells Anadhar, order you to free Valyr proper this instantaneous.”

As these phrases escaped Wells’ mouth, Valyr’s eyes widened in shock. Although he knew that his pal was from a noble household, he anticipated the person’s rank to be across the Lord or Baronet stage at most. By no means in his wildest goals did he assume his pal was a Viscount.

Naturally, Arcenne was left shocked as properly, considering all this time that Wells was only a pal that Valyr made whereas he was within the village he stayed in. In fact, that half was true since Valyr and Wells met one another again at Astarto Village. Nevertheless, she thought that Wells wasn’t of the Aristocracy in any respect, which made his reveal of being a Viscount all of the extra shocking to her.

However, a frown appeared as soon as extra on Lucas’ face after Wells revealed himself to be a Viscount. It was nonetheless okay for him to say no the request of a single noble since he had methods to compensate them for the rejection. Nevertheless, coping with two nobles or extra that requested the identical factor was a distinct story.

In spite of everything, if he did not appease the entire nobles, then the fame of town guards, in addition to town itself would swiftly disappear.

However after all, Lucas had different causes as to why he needed to detain Valyr in jail, so he remained adamant in not giving him to the 2 nobles. “I sincerely apologize for not having the ability to comply with your requests. As I’ve mentioned earlier, this request of yours is troublesome to meet because it includes the security of town.”

“What if I have been to make the request?” Out of nowhere, one other voice resounded all through the coliseum, prompting everybody on the battleground to show their heads within the route of the voice’s origin. With that, everybody was greeted by the sight of a 5 man group that radiated imposing but regal auras, all of them sporting mild grey plate armor.

“Let me ask you as soon as once more. If I have been to make the request, would you set Valyr free?” Taking a look at Lucas, the person on the very entrance of the 5 man group posed the query to him as soon as extra, inflicting the frown on Lucas’ face to deepen.

“And you might be?” Although he had a sense that the person on the entrance of the group was extremely more likely to be a noble as properly, Lucas thought that the person would solely be across the similar stage as Arcenne at most, with the opposite 4 folks accompanying the person probably being nobles as properly.

Nevertheless, as soon as the person began to speak, it was solely then did he discover out that he was extremely and completely mistaken.

“Braum Gladios, Marquis of the Astella Area,” the person mentioned in response to Lucas’ query earlier than shifting his gaze to the 4 folks behind him. “Behind me are Neia, Paul, Tyrst, and Madeline, the bottom rank of the Aristocracy amongst them being Earl.”

After that, as if the phrases he had simply spoken to Lucas weren’t sufficient to steer the latter to giving Valyr to the 5 man group, Braum introduced out a chunk of parchment out of his pocket earlier than unfurling it, permitting Arcenne, Wells, Valyr, Lucas, and the guards to learn what was written on it.

“Similar to the 2 nobles earlier than you, we request that you just free Valyr proper this instantaneous. Nevertheless, not like them, we now have a Royal Decree, signed personally by the king of the Algerie Kingdom, that states that we now have been tasked by the dominion itself to convey Valyr to the dominion at any price. You could possibly select to assist us make our lives simpler by letting him go, or you possibly can select to proceed withholding his freedom from us.”

“Nevertheless, be ready to face the implications that come together with such a selection.” As Braum mentioned these phrases, he launched his aura in full swing, the power emanating from his physique far better than what Arcenne gave off, making it appear as if Arcenne was only a firefly standing in entrance of the solar.

“Now then.”

“What shall you select?”
