Rise of Myriad Magic Emperor

Chapter 40: Eastern General Comes

It has been one week since the competition for the throne started, these 7days, Jai and others have been in making rune tools, making architecture plans, refining weapons, making potions.

Diana and others are also busy in their administration work, as due to the current plan they have to make many changes in the governing structure, to make it more efficient and responsive.

Kai, who was completely free, on the other hand, was looking after and training Lily.

[At castle roof]

Sun was already shining bright, as sunlight falls on the roof, gentle winds were blowing,

Lily and Kai were practicing and exchanging their views about their practice method.

Lily, who has completely become one with a magic lock circuit, was advised how to increase the potential of body channel and mage root.

"Lily, know that you have become one with the magic lock, it will not restrict your growth but will help you in your growth, I will slowly improve your magic channels and mage root, in the meantime practice this art"

As Kai put out a blank golden page and placed it on took off Lily's head, as a magic Circle appeared on it and with a dazzling golden glow covered the entire body of Lily and disappeared.

Lily opens her eyes and sits while folding her legs and starts meditation.

Seeing this Kai did not disturb her and also started doing meditation beside her.

Meditation is one of the basic practices of magic users, it is to strengthen their mental strength as well as improve their perception of the world, it also improves their sensitivity towards their surroundings.

But before Kai can entered, the meditation stage, he heard sounds of footsteps coming, as he opens his eyes and shows a guard running towards him and stops only 50cm away from him as he stops and takes a long breath as guards entire body was sweating

Suu, Suu, suuu

Sounds of heavy breathing continue as kai tells, the guard to relax.

As guard sits on the floor, having his breath returned to normal, he tells Kai

"Sir..., Eastern General had come to Duke Castle and is waiting for you in the guest room, Duke and others are also there"

"Please go quickly, nobody knew where you went so I have to look for you, it's already 20min, please go quickly"

Having got the message, Kai nods as he pads the young guard, in his back.

"Thank you and take some rest"

Kai walks towards the stairs, leaving the guard and Lily on the roof.

[In Guest Room]

The guest room was painted in white color with golden color butterflies drawn on top of it covering the entire four walls of the room, the floor was made up of white marble with a blown carpet placed on top of it, with four sofa in the middle and a center table in the middle of them, all glass windows were open as gentle wind and dim sunlight entering the room, making the environment pleasing, but today atmosphere does not seems so pleasing

A heavy atmosphere was present, in the room with only Michael and Alfred, being in the room.

With a young man sitting before them, he had an average body build with a height reaching 5.7 foot, his short red hair was well organized and on his right wrist an iron sword was present, wearing normal white clothes with a blue tulip design.

This young man was sitting on the sofa with his arms folded and eyes closed, calmly sitting there, but Alfred was already shocked. Michael's condition was a little better as he was a stage 3 magic warrior.

This young man is the eastern general, commander of the entire eastern army, don't look at his young appearance, he is a 200years old monster, who had gone to many battles and bathed in the blood of both magic beasts and humans.

Clank... clank...

with a sound of the opening of the door of the guest room, Kai entered the room

As the young man looked at Kai from the corner of his eyes and remained calmly sitting on the sofa.

Seeing Alfred and Michael with a young man sitting across them, Kai smiled and tried to loosen, heavy atmosphere.

And sits on the sofa between Alfred and Michael, as he looks at the young man

"Hope I am not late, what matter do you want to discuss about," said Kai to the young man.

Young man heard Kai's words and took out a letter and placed it on the table.

With a serious expression young man looked at Kai with his green eyes"I am commander of entire eastern region army, my name is Byro vermin, I want to talk about the content of this letter, do you really what to do this"said Byro was a invisible pressure was released from his body as atmosphere again become heavy.

Feeling the pressure coming from Bryo, Kai just revolved around his magic power and counterbalanced it.

Byro when seeing Kai, who was sitting comfortably as before, he was surprised but didn't show it on his face.

As he look curiously at Kai and asks Kai in a deep and heavy voice

"Why do you want to dissolve eastern region army? Don't you care about the lives of people? What will happen if magic beasts suddenly attack, will you be able to take responsibility for that? Central command will not approve it.

Hearing Byro words Kai did not say anything as he looks at Byro and said a single word

"Weakling"

Alfred, Michael, and Byro who heard Kai were astonished.

"Your eastern region army is full of weaklings,

who are just burden for this region, they don't do any things, no beast rampage had occurred in 100years of time, but you guys are posted here, with nothing to do, just eating, drinking, and sleep which is provided by this region"

said Kai without any hesitation as he looks at Byro's eyes.

Byro who was now just acting like a mighty guy suddenly speechless as anger rises inside of him.

And a terrific aura started getting released from Byro's body.

Alfred and Michael who were sitting on the sofa suddenly started to feel suffocating, as he felt mountain crushing force on their body.

"Sir...byron.. please...take back your aura"

said Michael as he struggles to stand up.

while Alfred was in no condition to even speak.

Kai was a little surprised, become Byro was using battle aura which can only be used by battlemage, then Daoma told Kai about the battlemage, he told him about the requirements to become a battle mage, is to form a non attribute magic origin, so Battlemage posses this kind of battle aura, this guy was a peak magic warrior stage fighter, but he picked up a wrong opponent today.

Just as Kai was about to use his magic, the door of the room opens and Jai enters, suddenly all the pressure vanished,

giving space for Alfred and Michael to take a breath, but Byro's condition was not going as he was now getting crushed by pressure released from Jai's body which was completely focused on him.

As Byro became unconscious did Jai take back his aura.

"A Bully, do you think I will let you do what you want to my brother and his family, if Jai is here, what is there to fear"
