159 Chapter 159: First move

Name:Legendary Guardian Author:Riviz
The forces of Gyro kingdom remained quiet for close to a minute as they looked up to the death mage and the elder prince, hoping all they have heard is a joke. The streets of the capital were nearly filled to the brim but this did not stop the citizens from peeping out the window and staring at the two figures standing in the air with confused yet excited expressions.

Not too long ago, the elder princess was proclaimed the crowned princess to the throne. While some feminists supported this wholeheartedly, those who really sat down and thought this through were against the move. The elder princess was the closest thing to an imbecile they have seen from the royal family. Her combat knowledge and capabilities are close to, if not equal to zero, her courage is equal to zero, her wisdom and fairness is equal to zero but her scheming capabilities is over a hundred percent just like king Robert that may be the reason why the king actually prefers her to the upright and talented elder prince since she reminds him of the days of his youth, that must be the reason why the resources needed for at least a hundred people were invested in her to help raise her to the silver realm! This is even more than what the gravity cosmic spirit host Kuen receives.

After the elder princess was crowned, the Gyro kingdom as a whole has been waiting for the elder prince to react but surprisingly he has always been quite and his charming smile never faded even once. At a point, king Robert and the people actually thought he has accepted Anna as the possible new ruler of the Gyro kingdom. To think that this was what he was waiting for all this while.

"Bastard!" Robert roared and gritted his teeth as he watched what was happening from the throne room.

He turned his attention to every other person hiding out in the palace and frowned. He knew the implications of Gerald's move! It simply meant that the adventurers from the adventurer association who make up a portion of the military force that was meant to stand against Derik will instantly join his side, further improving his chances of winning.

He glanced at John Angus and Linda Angus with murderous eyes for a while before pushing away the thought. He quickly shifted his gaze to Cyrus and the other members of the royal guard and frowned.

"Don't worry… Our families are involved in this mess, and we know how vengeful the death mage can be, I definitely won't let him reach the palace! I defeated him before, I will do it again!" Cyrus' snow-white eyes released a sharp golden glow as he spoke calmly.

He quickly turned around and left the room with the other members of the royal guards before the king could respond.

Anna, Derik's family and the family members of all the other nobles watched Derik and Gerald exchange pleasantries as if they were old friends and their complexions turned pale. The strength of the death mage was already terrifying, now he has close to half of the forces in Gyro by his side, it was only a matter of time before they wipe them all out.

........................…..

Meanwhile,

Derik and Gerald were done exchanging pleasantries, quickly turning their attention to the army below them. Gerald immediately tried to speak but was stopped by Derik who waved his hand and slowly descended. His blazing darkish purple eyes burnt ridiculously bright as he scanned through all twenty thousand men and women prepared to fight to the death and a warm smile appeared on his face.

"I will make Gerald Gyro, King!" Derik's voice sounded like thunderclaps and the air suddenly turned chilly. The smell of death spread across the capital and darkish purple aura burst out of his body.

Roar!!!!!!!

Derik let out an ear-piercing roar revealing his fangs and claws. His cold gaze was fixed on the royal palace and he instantly turned into a flaming comet as he shot towards the royal palace with murderous intentions!

"DO YOU THINK THIS LITTLE BARRIER FORMATION WILL SAVE YOU ROBERT? NO ONE CAN ESCAPE DEATH!" Derik's words shook the capital.

During this time everyone was dazed by Derik's words and failed to react on time, letting Derik cross close to five hundred meters in just a few seconds.

"What are you waiting for? Stop him!" A captain was the first to recover from the shock and quickly gave orders.

While those in the military reacted accordingly and bombarded the darkish purple flaming comet with spells and attacks, those from the association were reluctant to make a move against Derik. In fact, most of them had the urge to turn around and face the military forces head-on.

"What are you waiting for… The death mage works for me… He will make me king… kill everyone that dares to stand in his way" Gerald's calm voice was like a reminder to all those from the adventurers association and a fight broke out within the forces of Gyro.

"For Gerald! For the death mage!" A guardian knight from the adventurers association roared as he dashed towards a team of military officials with his mighty spear raised high.

His body released a mist of gray energy which instantly took the form of a rhino with the guardian knight within and he quickly shot forward like a projectile.

After hearing Gerald's words, the members of the military were already prepared for this and the guardian knight in that team roared and struck forward with his broadsword at the incoming foe!

Boooom!!!

Explosions and destruction soon filled the air in just a few seconds. Gerald's eyes let out an orange light as he pinpointed the position of the important and high ranking military officials and a savage smile bloomed on his face.

"Dragon flame magic: ROAR OF THE FIRE DRAGON!" Gerald roared and his fiery aura poured out, taking the form of a fiery flame dragon with two mighty wings. The fire dragon roared before shooting down towards the direction of the officials and its already blazing fire eyes let out a blood-red glow

"Dragon flame magic: Fire Dragons breath!" Gerald roared.

The fire dragon let out an ear-piercing roar and hellish orange flames rolled out of its mouth and flew towards the high ranking military officials.

"Don't you dare feel cocky!"

"You dare betray the Gyro kingdom? Your head will be hung on the walls of the capital!"

"You may be a young genius but that doesn't mean you can take us on all alone! You are courting death!"

The high ranking military officials instantly cursed Gerald down to the tenth generation as they roared and pushed the all dashed towards the sea of orange flames. Since they were all at the silver realm, why would they fear a youth who just entered the peak grade of the silver realm?

They have been involved in numerous conflicts and battles, they refused to believe their experience will fail them at a moment like this!
