Light Emperor
Devotion

The man suddenly disappeared a moment from his position as he shouted.

"Where is he?, what's going on?" The masked male leader asked his members in the back.

"You looking for me?" The man suddenly appeared behind the masked man and whispered in his ear.

The face of the masked man instantly froze, cold sweat pouring from his face. He then turned his body back and tried to attack the man, but had not had time to attack, the man stabbed him right in the abdomen.

"Good way in hell" The man whispered in the masked man's ear before he collapsed to the ground.

After killing the masked man's leader, the black dome that blocked the guards disappeared along with the masked men except for the leader who had been killed by the man.

Queen Fotia approached the man and asked him.

"Young man what's your name?"

Realizing the woman who spoke to him at this moment was a queen, the man bowed his body.

"The noble queen can call me Bivades"

"Thank you Bivades you're a brave knight, but I can't just go home without giving you something. Ask for whatever you want, I might be able to grant it"

"If I may, I wish to devote myself to this kingdom, I beg your Majesty the queen!!!"

Hearing Bivades' request, Queen Fotia told him to stand up.

"Of course, from today on you I'll be my bodyguard"

Bivades who noticed since then realized the man in front of him was himself when he was young because the current incident is the same incident he experienced 20 years ago. He then walked up to the young Bivades and tried to touch his face.

At that time, the environment around Bivades again changed. She was now standing on the familiar red carpet she was wearing . He then lifted his head and saw at the end of the red carpet that there was a throne occupied by the man in the royal golden robe, a jade belt appearing to be coiled around his waist.

Bivades realized he was in one of the rooms in the palace precisely the throne of the king. The man clad in a golden robe that was in front of him right now was King Fotia.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the room.

"Stop your step, you should know if you want to see the king then you should make an appointment first. That's why we can't let you in" said a bodyguard who tried to stop someone from entering the room.

"Please allow me to see the King, there's something important I want to say" the person who wanted to enter the room was young Bivades. His condition looked extremely apprehensive with blood all over his armor.

King Fotia heard the noise outside. He quickly moved from his throne, and moved towards the source of the sound.

"Let me in!!!" Bivades tried to pass the two guards standing guard at the door. But his efforts were in vain he was instead pushed and fell 2 meters away.

The door behind the two guards suddenly opened. The two guards turned over, and King Fotia stood in front of them with a curious face. The two bodyguards bowed in respect to King Fotia.

"What is this noise???" King Fotia asked

The young Bivades was relieved to see King Fotia in front of him now, before one of the bodyguards spoke to the King. He interrupted and said firmly.

The face of King Fotia instantly froze. He became agitated and asked.

"What's the queen's condition?"

Young Bivades tries to appease King Fotia.

"Just calm down, your Majesty's safe queen. He did not come with us back to the palace. He is still in the Kingdom of Kaliwastera"

After saying that, the young Bivades then collapsed to the floor. He had suffered many injuries from the previous fight. His face looked pale as if there was no blood on his body.

King Fotia then told the two guards to take the young Bivades to the palace physician.

"You two what are you doing?, Immediately take this knight to the palace healer!!!"

"Alright King. Let's get him!" The two bodyguards then raised the weak, helpless body of the young Bivades towards the palace physician.

Bivades who was just silent, watched since then smiled thinly while closing his eyes. His smile seemed to affirm that he had no regrets at all devoting himself to the Kingdom of Fotia. Though said to be stupid and naive, he doesn't care. He thinks the decisions he makes are the best.

"What are you saying?, can't he be saved?, how are you. This is the best court physician in the kingdom. You really let me down!!"

There was a stern voice from a man in Bivades' ears. He opened his eyes and was surprised to be in a room filled with so many ingredients around him. This indicates that his current location has changed.

In front of him a bearded old man was standing rubbing oil from a bottle in his hand on the body of a young Bivades lying helplessly on the bed.

Behind the old man, King Fotia with a serious face looked upset and angry because Bivades had not come to his senses despite several days of being treated by the healer.

"Answer my question!, why are you just silent?"

The old man could only shake his head and say "Oh my noble apologies, I have already treated this knight to the maximum but the injuries he sustained were severe. I'm afraid he can't....."

King Fotia was shocked and instantly his facial expression changed. He became very angry and hit several bottles of potions nearby until they broke.

"Omong is empty!, you are the palace healer I trust the most. Why can you say that?, Do whatever it takes to cure him. Otherwise you know what I can do to your family!!"

The physician was silent for a moment when he heard King Fotia's words. His body trembled remembering his only child.

The doctor thought for a moment. He got an idea and said, "Well, King. I will make a last attempt to save him. I will seal the spirit beast Phoenix onto him. It's the only way to save her"

The Phoenix beast spirit was a bird-shaped beast spirit with a blue flame aura that possessed immortality. Anyone who is the host will have the ability to regenerate for any injury suffered. That's why so many people want the power of this Phoenix spirit.

The physician took a scroll and placed it in the stomach of the young Bivades. He then memorized the spell marking the start of sealing the Phoenix Spirit within the body of the young Bivades.

After a moment of memorizing the spell, a blue flame suddenly appeared and burned the scroll.

"Successfully..." Physician murmuring. He smiled thinly. The sealing ritual he did was successful without any obstacles at all.

A few minutes later, the eyes of the young Bivades opened slowly. In front of his eyes right now was a smiling healer cheerfully welcoming the young Bivades who was successfully healed by him.
