Chapter 70: Meeting of the Leaders II

"Sigh." I sighed, still looking at the tall pile of paper paper in front of me that had piled up a mountain without me noticing.

"Hey hei~ do you think this is the sigh of young master who I how?" Asked one of the staff who was sweeping softly to his colleague.

"Something."

"I've bet this dozens of times already." Knock on someone else.

"I bet on it a hundred times." Another tukas.

The corner of my mouth twitched, as the sound of that useless voice continued to cram my chaotic mind.

"Sigh." I took my breath back.

Whether it was to try to calm my runaway mind again, or maybe it just made me not hear it anymore, the useless babble of the fools around me.

For a moment I could only recall the flash of last night's meeting.

...□□□...

"I see, there's a lot you'd want to ask me about, right?" I started to open the conversation.

"Start from me leading the Ghost Monarchy, or why am I gathering all of you, right?"

"But before that, allow me to introduce myself again, of course, more fully." I said while in my heart releasing a spell.

I slowly felt a surprised look fill every face before me. It is natural, of course, when they are dealing with someone with a strong characteristic, an Asteria.

"A-aster!?"

I just nodded slowly, asserting his speech just now.

"Asteria, huh? What do you mean is the second prince of the Valkyrie land, Arcnight?" Ask one later.

I threw my gaze at a man with a firm line, his serious and cold face further added to his wibaw, I think so.

Without waiting for long, I smiled in response to her sharp analysis.

"Yes, let me be clear. I, Raka Azalea Son of Arcnight. The son of the Greatest Valkyrie, Arkaiz Alexander Arcnight. He is also the son of Asteris, Rishmalia Asteria Arcnight. In other words, two blood runs through my body, the blood of a Valkyrie, and also an Asteria."

"I know it's a little strange to think about it. But I am the one you call Akara, the real Greatest Monarchy. Then, the reason I gathered the entire leader, I guess you all already know."

"Wait on! You want to talk about Qrystial, don't you?" Ask one of them.

"M." I lightly muttered while nodding. There's not much I can answer from his words. Even though I myself knew about it, there was still too much distrust of my identity.

After all, I was someone who disappeared and was declared dead for several years.

"But. How do we trust your identity? Asteria is not a place where one would be generous to simply give help without profit. Then, if you want to lead us in solving the current and later problems of Qrystial, then you also have to solve your own problems, right?"

"There is not a single human being on this continent who does not know the brink of Arcnight's destruction, even if it's a beggar, they know it. How do you finish it? If you ask for our help, I'm sorry. But my organization is not one that will help a foreigner without reward." Next later.

A gloomy and complicated roar immediately filled their expressions, those leaders. There was no sound when the man stopped expressing his opinion.

I sighed softly, "Sigh. Already?" My words were followed by the nods of the audience.

"alright. First, my identity. As I said earlier, I am Raka Azalea, the third son of the Greatest Valkyrie and an Asterian. The evidence? Maybe a little cliche, you all know that. That, no one had navy black hair aside from that of an Asterian. And, there's only one Asterian living outside of Asteria, Madame Rishmalia Arcnight, my mother"

"For some reason, I had trouble with my memory, which required me to live without actually remembering anything other than my own name. Then, I met my master whom I could not divulge his identity. What is clear is that you met him, a man who died a few years ago in the war against the demon kingdom."

"Although that is the case, I have no intention of becoming the leader of all of you. Or even have Qrystial as my own country. In fact, I am not a fool blinded by sheer force that I consider myself capable of grasping it, this country."

"Ah~ one other thing, I am not a fool who wants to busy and trouble myself by continuing to struggle with leaders who are my father's age!"

"Because of that .. let me say this, I ..." I said prevented.

"Ehem! Don't you think of us?" Sir Ranfold's words were accompanied by a nod from the others.

The corner of my mouth twitched, "Sorry? Don't you also doubt my existence?"

The old man then raised his chin, "Mm? You don't hear anything like that." Said indifferently.

"Haah? So this is all me wrong?" I smiled bitterly.

"We believed. Your identity as an Arcian or as an Asterian."

"Hmm? Why?"

"Of course, there is no reason for you to paint the name Arcnight or Asteria. In fact, it will actually harm you. Hair color or blood, I don't care. The fact that you are ahead of us as one of the seven, not-the three great leaders of Qrystial shows us how much you are, regardless of your hair or blood. In the eyes of my organization, a noble is not someone who only has a distinguished surname, but also he must have high ethics that will determine his quality. Is it just an ordinary goose egg, or is it a golden goose egg." He said with a strange glow that made me feel glare with his words.

"Ugh~ alright" I muttered helplessly.

"I don't know what this old man clearly meant. But surely, be it Arcnight or Asteria, you are still you. Be it strength or something, you have shown me how well you deserve to be here. There is no reason for us to lose any of our hands. Then, whether it is well-governed or not, whether used arbitrarily or not, it has become a decision and a consequence we must accept when we trust you." Said the black-haired man who had been quiet enough to listen.

For a while later, the atmosphere became quite quiet. No one dares to argue over a leadership when two other leaders share the same will and decision.

Well, I cursed him.

"Ugh~ alright, you two have already given your opinion. But not with the others. The fact that if you express the opposite opinion first regardless of the situation makes the other opinion feel empty, you understand that, right?" My complaint was followed by a helpless nod from the other four leaders.

"Sighs. Well, then why aren't either of you two the leaders?" My toot.

Ethan immediately shook his head, "Are you serious? Managing my own organizational documents is already too annoying for me, making me lazy." His speech was followed by a nod from Mr. Ranfold.

"Hey! Why are you nodding!?" Ethan's hot.

While the old man only smiled faintly, "fu fu fu .. There is no need to thank you, there is nothing I can do, I am only able to support the opinion that you conveyed earlier, mr. Ethan. Certainly without any intention." His sarcasm pressed the pronunciation of his last word.

I let out a long sigh as the two people began to argue, "alright, there is no other choice. You have to go forward, don't you, Mr Ranfold?" My words shifted my gaze to him.

"Well, I don't mind if there's no nesting parasite, even if it's just a worm, I think I can lead it better than anyone." Said relaxed.

I looked at the circus man scorching. Who doesn't know the side he's offending? The only 'worm' he meant was him, Ethan.

"Old man! You're taking a storm haa?" Ethan said emotion as he kicked down the meeting table.

Brakk!

With just one punch the table was shattered. For a moment, the room became hot enough to bake bread. But before long, cold air blows cool, turning a room like an oven into a room like a refrigerator in just seconds.

I sighed loudly, "So? Do you want me to get rid of it at once? Can you adults act more mature? Shouldn't you be ashamed of someone who's the same age as your children and grandchildren? I think one important thing I need to do is to regenerate the leaders of your organization so as not to be like you." I don't lose sarcasm.

"Sigh." For the umpteenth time I took a long breath.

The meeting resumed, there were many things we discussed there. Starting from trivial problems, and many other things.

The result of the decision was obtained, in the end, a unanimous decision to appoint me as the highest elder, not as the leader because my position in the same Arcnight cannot be ignored.

And, with this all, a sign of the beginning of cooperation between the organizations in Qrystial.
