149 Refugees (2/2)
”How many people are with you?”
”We are a group of eighty people, my lord”
This day was getting better and better for Don as first he heard about the change in nonhuman residency and now, he learned that there are probably hundreds of refugees looking for a home to settle and currently what he was lacking in Agoria is the population.
”Do you know the way to Agoria?”
The man shook his head
”I don't my lord, but Utipa knows”
”Then go to Agoria and tell that I, King Don sent you to anyone you first see there, you can take refuge in my kingdom”
Aax suddenly dropped on his knees realizing that he and his people were offered to take refuge by the king himself
”Thank you, thank you, your majesty”
”But don't think about loafing around, you must earn your keep just like everyone else in my kingdom”
”We don't dare, your majesty”
”Here give these to the children and weak”
Don waved his hand as a couple of trays full of food and drinks appeared before him
Don would have given the food but looking at the thin as stick kids and exhausted faces of the women, he chose to give the food before most of them die of hunger before even reaching Agoria
Aax hit his forehead on the ground a couple of times
”Thank you, your majesty”
Aax didn't even reject the food for etiquette as he feared that if he did, he would lose the chance to feed his kids
”Let's go”
As he said, Don walked to the carriage and entered in to resume his journey leaving the refugees with the food
”Go and get Joel here”
After putting some distance from the refugees, Don said to Arrora.
”Yes, your majesty”
Arrora said as she opened the door and went floating towards the carriage that Arwen and Joel is in
Lord Clemo remained silent and in a few moments, Arrora brought Joel to Don while Lord Clemo moved his body to let Joel sit
”Your majesty”
”Spread the word that the refugees are welcome to take refuge in Agoria and I want to know every ongoing war and wars that ended recently ”
”Consider it done, your majesty”
Don motioned Arrora to take him back to his carriage
”Grandmaster”
Lord Clemo's heart skipped a beat when he noticed the magical fluctuation appeared around Arrora when she created a wind bubble around Joel to take him back to the carriage
And when she was returned, Arrora noticed that Lord Clemo was looking at her like she's a ghost
”What Lord Clemo, never saw a grandmaster before?”
Arrora asked as Lord Clemo slowly shook his head
”My lady, you-you' became a grandmaster”
Recently when he saw her fight with the guards in Massen's manor, she was a great master and he never thought that she would break through to the grandmaster level this quickly.
”You noticed”
”Then is he also a grandmaster?”
Lord Clemo questioned himself looking at Don and even the thought of him traveling with two grandmasters plus sitting in front of them instead of standing sent a child through his spine because even among the rank three kingdoms, there were not many grandmasters at a young age such as Don's or Arrora's and according to his knowledge, there was no grandmaster in rank 4 kingdoms, not even a single one.
However, Lord Clemo didn't know that in the rank 2 and rank 1 kingdoms, grandmasters were becoming less and less rare as many youngsters and cultivators had started to get into the grandmaster level. Plus the prodigies like Rosaline, the princess of Archeron kingdom were looking to reach the heavenly level within a couple of years.
”If you stay loyal to me, you can get everything you want, Lord Clemo”
”I will be loyal to you as a dog, your majesty and if you ask me to jump, I will only ask how high”
If it wasn't for the lack of space, he would have worshipped Don by falling to his knees and touching his boots with his forehead
”Glad to hear it, Lord Clemo”
Until now he would sometimes think about running away from Agoria and Don but now that he had realized there's a grandmaster working for him and more possibly Don himself is a grandmaster, he would never again think about leaving the kingdom or doing anything against Don's wishes.
