SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

After reaching the Frost family Palace, Kent directly went towards the room of his uncle, King Ragnar.

As it was night time, Ragnar was getting prepared to sleep, just then the doors of his room kicked open and Kent stood at the door with a serious look.

Ragnar was taken aback by this sudden act. But soon recognised the masked person standing at the door. He hurriedly walked out to to meet Kent, who is gasping for air.

"What happened? Any danger? Did something go wrong?" Ragnar asked with a nervous look.

"Grandfather is coming. Get ready to stop him." Kent said while leaning on the door.

"What? Grandfather? Do you mean my father Drona Lionheart?" Ragnar questioned with a confused look.

"Yes… he is after me. The situation is serious." Kent replied.

"But why? By any chance your identity got exposed?" Ragnar asked with a serious face.

"No… not till now. Second Prince Philip fought with me to get the goddess spirit in my soul. In the end, he used the Sun-Moon eclipse art. But it was backlashed on him.

I used the poison mist to keep the forbidden army away from the battlefield. But grandfather got alerted due to the sun-moon eclipse art, and came to support Philip.

As grandpa came in contact with poison mist, he will definitely come for the antidote. Just make sure to stop the old man from creating any havoc." Kent explained while checking the antidotes in his spirit ring.

King Ragnar held his head with tension. But he was happy that Kent's identity was still intact. Immediately Ragnar Summoned the palace guards and went to the entrance of the palace to receive his father, Drona Lionheart.

For added safety, Ragnar held the

'Lionheart seal'

in his hand, given by his father to save Kent during the court trial.

Meanwhile, the forbidden army reached the battlefield when the poison mist cleared. They asked for the details of the enemy. But Queen Soya put on a serious face and commanded them to carry the prince to the healing Palace.

She followed his son, Philip to the healing Hall. Soon the news reached the ears of the emperor. But when he heard that, the old patriarch Drona went to pursue the culprit, he left the matter to his father.@@novelbin@@

Surprisingly, Queen Soya didn't reveal the name of Kent to anyone. She was silent all along. As the second prince Philip was unconscious, no one knew the opponent who attacked the prince.

On the other side, the old patriarch Drona appeared on the teleportation gate of Frost nation capital city. Getting on top of his pet the mighty hawk, he commanded the pet straight to the Frost family palace.

The hawk went directly to the King's Palace. Within moments the hawk landed at the entrance of the Frost Palace, where king Ragnar was waiting with his personal guards. Behind them, Kent stood with a serious face.

Descending from the Hawk, Drona walked towards his second son, Ragnar. He seemed a little weak as the poison already spread all over his body.

From behind the mask, Kent stared at the face of his grandfather, Drona Lionheart. It was Kent's first time to see his grandfather directly in person.

Both of their eyes met as Drona stared back at Kent. The old man Drona was taken back by the sight of Kent's eyes. The anger on his face slowly dissipated as he continued to stare at Kent. He felt like he had seen the eyes of Kent somewhere, but he couldn't remember where he saw them.

"Greetings, father. My palace is really honoured with your presence." King Ragnar greeted with a pleasing face.

With a grim face, Drona extended his hand. "Give me the antidote."

King Ragnar turned towards Kent helplessly. Kent took a step forward and passed the small vial containing the golden colour antidote.

Drona immediately took the antidote. A cooling sensation passed inside his body and within seconds he got relieved from the effects of poison. The old man Drona felt surprised by the quick reaction of the antidote.

"Father, actually, what happened was…" King Ragnar tried to explain things in favour of Kent.

But Drona stopped him with a hand gesture. "You… speak. Why did you attack my grandson? He is the second prince of this empire. Don't you know his status?" Drona asked, while staring deep into Kent's eyes.

"You should ask this question to your grandson. He is the one who ambushed me like a coward. I just came to visit the fire mountains. But the second prince attacked me and tried to kill me to snatch the goddess spirit in my possession." Kent said, in a serious tone without feeling any fear from Drona's angry glare.

"Are you speaking the truth?" Drona asked again.

"Yes… the Queen was also present during the attack. You can take her as a witness." Kent replied.

Immediately, Ragnar also spoke in support of Kent. "Father, this masked youth is my son-in-law. He is a righteous man and he has values. Please spare him if there is any mistake happened because of him."

Drona fell in silence for a long time. "If what you are saying is true, Why did you use the poison?" Drona questioned Kent with a serious look.

"I used the poison to stop anyone from coming in support of the prince. If I really want to kill the prince, why won't I use that poison on him? I hope you understand the importance of my poison now as you already experienced it. Do you think it is impossible for me to kill the second prince with that poison?" Kent questioned back with a serious look.

The old man Drona felt honesty in Kent's answer. The poison he experienced is a traumatising experience. If not for his half Sovereign cultivation, he should have died because of that poison.

"I have one last question, if you answer this, I will spare your life without any more investigation." Drona said.

Kent nodded his head in understanding.

"How did you escape from the sun moon eclipse art? The spell got backlashed on my grandson. What did you use to make that happen?" Drona asked with a serious look.

"I think you should also ask this question to your grandson. He is the one who couldn't handle the spell correctly.

Yes, I have some great treasures to escape from the Sun-Moon eclipse art given by gods themselves. As a legacy bearer of war god, I have many ways to escape the sun-moon, eclipse art. But I didn't use any treasures. It was the second prince who failed to execute the spell correctly." Kent replied while staring back at his grandfather.
