Chapter 202 THE BEGINNING 2 (1/2)

This sequence of event happens before the one that happen in Duvar, in King Vrandeus throne room.

Aero slowly open his eyes. That takes a lot of mana he thinks to himself. He also felt mixed emotions after hearing the news

King George is now dead, and Prince Edward is the new heir he said it to himself muttering it. There is a new development in Vanheim.

A lot of it.

Thanks to Dan and Raina, he was kept informed of the news that is happening in Vanheim.

He sighed a bit. Change is inevitable and change is everywhere these days. With King George death, there will surely be a lot of people moving in the Court.

the Status quo will change now. And Aero doubts that Prince James would accept his father decree obediently. After all, he is the hero of Vanheim right now, defeating Niovar.

He could already imagine the fierce bloodshed that will happen in the Court. That is why he need to return to Vanheim as soon as possible.

Prince James would surely be incensed when hearing his father change of heart. And almost the whole court hears his last decree.

Complicated emotions are swirling inside his heart right.

The relationship between him and the King started because of benefits but as he knows the man, George also share his dream with him and they have been working together to realize that dream

He felt a little sad because of many reason and he also have lost his greatest ally in the court.

The King has always been his supporter, and his shield. And surprising enough, a friend.

They of course try to outsmart each other, but in time they have grown accustomed to each other behavior.

Aero even thought that if he truly had to offer his loyalty to someone, then King George is the only monarch worthy of his loyalty.

He chuckles in the cell. No one would understand whether it was because of his complicated feeling or whether he found something funny.

Now, he is dead and gone and he had to plan for himself right now. He living still had to live.

He is thinking right now. Should he back another person? Should he went to Prince Edward camp? Or should he take the power himself?

Become King? Aero knew he had large influence in Vanheim and his connection is everywhere

And he knew the people of Vanheim love him. As he thinks of this matter he shakes his head. Love of the people could fade easily.

And if he became King it would be restricting his action among others. There would be many quest he couldn't perform.

He is more comfortable being the hand behind the curtain controlling everything rather than being the face of the throne.

And if he truly tries to take the throne, he not only has no just cause, it would besmirch his reputation as a loyal minister.

And those that follow him before might abandon him. They follow him because of his reputation so it is only proper that they will also leave if that reputation changes.

Aero understand how reputation works because he has wielded it wisely

He knows that loyalty, sincerity and kindness could reduce enmity and hatred, but he has never heard that wielding power and authority over others could prevent enmity and hatred from happening.

That is why it is better to be what he is now.

The Chancellor who control the Six Council.

Suddenly the wind blows into his cell and he was reminded of George. It is spring. George once told him that he likes the sprig air because it reminded him of his wife.

And then Aero felt the cold on his body.

He sighed as he thought that at the end of his life he must felt cold. Or would he feel amused dying in his most favorite season.

The cold that is entering his cell right now is biting him.

Probably because of the ventilation or another way of this prison to torture him. The cold seeped into his toes and spread painfully.

For some reason this prison doesn't stop to amaze him. He felt cold here, which he never felt since he took the curse.

He then looks back in front of his cell and sitting on the bar is a man. He snickers and then ask

'What do you mean?'

'Your lips. It's blue' he said and chuckled. He clearly is amused by the sight. Aero chuckles because he could believe how his pain amuse this person that much

'Do you like it that much?'

'Yes, I do Aero. Extremely so'

Aero only shakes his head and then said

'Even though we are allies?'

'Allies not friend' he said and then he chuckled again

'Give me a blanket' Aero ask. The man shakes his head and then explain

'I can't. Too many people will ask question. You don't want our partnership to crumble because of one blanket, do you?'

Aero sighed and he nodded. It is not worth it to have their plans discovered because of one blanket.

He looks again around his cell and he is impatient to leave. The prison wall is still as dull as ever but he knows he would not be here for any longer.

Aero smile in his cell because he has already moved all the pieces that he needs. Now he is just waiting it to be put on the board.

There are a lot of things he need to do…He had even call Raina and use her to stop Amy from coming here.

He knew she promised to save him but he did not want her to save him by risking her freedom.

He doesn't want to lose her again; if she gets captured again it would devalue all his effort in rescuing her

Not to mention the rebellion and the revolt help him in his plan. He already also put the rebellion in his calculations.

He also heard about one interesting news.

Derrick one of the many rebel leaders has claim some lands in the United Kingdom of Veva as a new country called Aerosia.

Aero doesn't know who this Derrick is but his devotion to him is quite commendable. Maybe he will give that rebel leader a title when he got out from here.

He also has been thinking about Deria. From the report he got from Dan and Rina, Deria has still not arrived in Vanheim. Could something have been stopping him?

As he was thinking about other matter, the man in front of the cell said.
