The Ruler of the Two Continents
CHAPTER 67 - TRANQUILITY IN THE FORTRESS OF DRAKE

In the land of Oleic, Drake's Fort.

All residents welcomed the presence of the General and the tiny prince who participated brought to the fortress.

The baby's face was almost similar to that of the child from merlin, equally handsome and adorable.

The women in the fortress scrambled to hold the tiny pangerang.

In the General's simple room…

“ Merlin, do you mind my son being cared for by you? “ asks the General while hanging his brown robe.

“ Why should you mind master, he is also my son.” Merlin's smile makes his face cool, and the General who saw it as if doused in refreshing cold water.

Merlin who was sitting on the side of the bed was busy folding baby clothes which still looked messy..

The general sat beside Merlin on the edge of the bed. The man turned to their sleeping baby, then looked at Merlin again.

“ Merlin, thank you for everything you've done for me..” The general looked at Merlin who was bowed folding baby clothes.

“ Why did you suddenly say so sir? “ this time Merlin turned towards her husband.

“ Ah, no. I just got too much help from you , I can't imagine having to be crazy-.” Merlin spontaneously kissed her husband's lips.

Merlin's hands coiled around the shoulders of the man beside him, they dissolved in longing.

The man wished he could live longer with Merlin.

Five months passed, and,

The fort is now more prosperous than the previous year. All the buildings were well constructed. The situation of the fort is quite calm lately.

In that month news of grief was also heard from the kingdom of Hazmut. King Ell has died, now the kingdom is ruled by his successor, prince Zaimon.

Prince Zaimon had married a noble woman, but their marriage was not as happy as it seemed on the surface, the prince did not love his wife at all, he still wanted someone who still filled his heart, Merlin.

At Drake's fortress, Denzu stepped quickly into the castle hall, where he met the general who was discussing with Gardden and his friends.

Denzu brought his face closer to the ears of the general.

“ General, a messenger from Nerogon is waiting for you in the courtyard of the fortress “

“ Nerogon? “ The general's eyebrows grinned slightly docked.

At once he rose from his seat and invited Gardden and others to meet the messenger.

Meanwhile, Merlin and some women would shop downtown to buy their needs as well as children's supplies.

The general and his comrades' steps stopped when they crossed paths with Merlin.

“ Sir, I'm leaving for the city center, I want to buy children's clothes that I told you the other day.” Merlin met the General before they met the envoy in the Citadel grounds.

“ Ah, what should now? Wait for me, we go together “ General is staring at Merlin in a bit of a hurry.

“ But you have a lot to do, right?“

“ Well, after my business is done we go together “ muttered the General.

“ You do not have to bother with me sir, I will go with the aunts (older women ) “ said Merlin.

“ Besides them, who else will take care of you.. Ah, Denzu.you come with my wife “ General orders to Denzu who is beside her.

“ But General, you told me to train archery warriors this afternoon, didn't you? “ replied Denzu.

“ Oh well. Gard, can you accompany Merlin? “ ask General.

“ Not that I refused Luzen, but there are three regions that you told me to visit, right?, I'm sorry Miss Merlin.I can't accompany you “

“ Is fine Mr. Gard.” replied Merlin lightly.

“ Harmmon?.Where is he? “ General as if looking for someone.

“ He has departed from this blind morning “ Gardden replied.

“ Already sir, I accompanied the aunts and masters of Ghoose, it is enough “ Merlin prepare to leave.

“ Haah.ya, yes..alright, but you are not too far from the city center, do not shop too long, jang-.” The general has not finished his sentence.

“ I go...until later.” Merlin took the middle-aged woman beside him and passed away leaving the General.

In the center of the border town of Hazmut,

“ Mr. Ghosse, you wait here, me and the others will also take a walk to the baby supply store, maybe a little while “ Merlin and the three women who accompanied him left Ghosse in their caravan.

Merlin bought baby clothes for two babies at once. They also buy equipment for the kitchen.

“ Move! Move aside! “ the voices of some soldiers drove the inhabitants to make way for the passing royal chariot.

Everyone there stepped over to the side to give way, including Merlin and the aunts also pulled over.

“ Who passed by bi?, which kingdom are they from? “ asked Merlin half-whispered to the middle-aged woman next to him.

“ Looks like it's from the Hazmut kingdom miss, and what I heard now that prince Zaimon has become King, maybe they want to introduce themselves by going around, it may also be the wife of prince Zaimon who was in the horse carriage“ the woman explained to Merlin.

“ Oh, so apparently..” Merlin murmured.

As the horse carriage passed by Merlin, from inside the carriage was seen a noble woman with a half-look up face seen sitting inside the carriage, next to the woman sat a luxurious robed man, who was in the same state, royal robes with fur around their collar. Yes, the man was prince Zaimon who had now become King in place of his father King Ell who had died.

Behind and in front of the royal carriage, several guards accompanied him on horseback.

One of the horsemen walked behind the train, pushing a girl over until she fell.

“ You're less pulled over, move aside! “ hardik the guard from the horse to the girl who had fallen earlier.

Merlin who was standing not far from the girl spontaneously ran over and approached the girl, then Merlin helped her up.

“ Hey! He's pulled over! Didn't you see it! “ Merlin with furious reply rebuked the guard.

The bodyguards on the horse glared at Merlin.

The motorcade stopped for a moment. King Zaimon in the carriage spontaneously turned to the rebuking voice of the woman, a voice he knew, but he could not see the face of the woman out there.

“ Merlin..” King Zaimon's voice slowly. The wife beside him looked at him with a feeling of wonder.
