Chapter 402 - The new Wasteland Valley-part one-

It has been exactly a month since them.

A carriage approached the frozen roads on Wasteland Valley.

"Young master, we are here" Said an old man in front of the carriage.

Two young men walked out of the carriage.

One was a young man with blond hair.

And the other one was a young man with black hair.

The young man with black hair was carrying a person on his back.

"From now on, I am not longer young master" Said the young man with blond hair.

"Thanks for everything, young master Noah" 

The carriage turned back leaving the two young men there.

"As I promise, exactly a month" Said Noah.

"Thanks"

"We are on the same boat after all" Said Noah with a sigh.

Alfonso turned to the person in his back.

"We are home" He murmured.

Alfonso and Noah walked towards the entrance of Wasteland Valley.

Alfonso noticed that Wasteland Valley had changed a lot since he left. 

For example, before there was no road to enter Wasteland Valley, now, there was a set road to enter, in fact, they left a path without snow.

"This is indeed a great improvement" Though Alfonso.

Second, and more impressive.

Of course, it wasn't a lot, one or two, however, seeing a flow of people, greatly surprise Alfonso.

"I must reward those guys" Thought Alfonso.

"STOP!" 

Suddenly, two guards went out and stopped Noah and Alfonso.

"What is your business in Wasteland Valley?" Asked one of them.

"I came to see Artemis; could you call her?" Asked Alfonso.

Alfonso didn't recognize these two guards.

"They must be from the bunch that came from outside" Though Alfonso.

The two guards looked at each other and, after some seconds, they laughed.

"Hahaha, and who the hell do you think you are to ask for Miss Artemis?" 

"An idiot, an idiot indeed" 

Alfonso was surprised at the reaction of both guards.

"You don't know who I am?" Asked Alfonso.

"And how the hell are we supposed to know who you are?" 

Noah looked at both guards as if he was looking at two retards.

"Two persons who are not even champions, laughing and calling idiot to the very same person that wiped out seven spiders just a month ago… One had to admire the audacity of these two little guards" Thought Noah.

"If you don't have business here, just get out of here"

"I don't like to bully the weak, just give some… generosity and we will forgive you this insolence" 

Alfonso was surprised at the attitude of these two guards.

He wasn't in a big city like Dragon City, why would these two cause trouble to foreigners? 

Foreigners are more than welcome in Wasteland Valley!

"Look, I don't want to cause a scene, just call Deferio here" Said Alfonso.

"It seems that this little guy doesn't want to cooperate" Said one of the guards.

He took out his spear and pointed it at Alfonso.

"Hah…" Alfonso sighed.

He looked at the two guards who were smiling confidently.

His eyes turned green and, without many expressions, he sent the two guards flying.

From the past months, Alfonso had both demons, champions, and even some lord demons.

Facing these two… it was simple not fair.

"A…A-A champion!"

"Alert! A champion is coming!" 

The two guards shouted and for the entrance, appeared twenty more guards with wolves.

"We have an intruder!"

"Defend Wasteland Valley!"

"Long live Lord Alfonso!"

The guards run towards the entrance with the wolves at their side.

"Wow, the team of 'answer to crisis' has increased a lot?" Though Alfonso.

The wolves run towards Alfonso at full speed, leaving the soldiers behind.

"Ha! Even if you are champion, you can't fight 20 wolves with an injured person in your back!" Shouted one of the two guards.

The guards who just came in froze on the spot when they saw the two persons who were in front.

The wolves run until they were on the foot of Alfonso and then…

They began to lick and wave their tail in happiness.

"Aooo~" 

"It's good to see you guys too" Said Alfonso with a smile.

"Hmph… you guys are as sloppy as ever" 

The other wolves tilted their head.

On Alfonso's hand, a second white ring shone in brightness.

A small husky came out from the ring.

"It seems that I still need to discipline you!" Said Cerberus.

The two guards were stunned. 

"You two trashes" 

One of the guards who were still stunned quickly kneeled on the snow.

The other guards follow as well.

"That 'intruder' is the lord, Alfonso Lockheart!" Said the guard.

The two guards almost fainted went they heard the guard.

Alfonso and Noah walked past the two guards.

"We…" 

Alfonso stopped but didn't turn around.

"Tell Deferio that these two need more training…" Said Alfonso.

"As my lord commands" 

Alfonso and Noah walked towards Wasteland Valley.

....................................................................

Inside the manor.

Alfonso, Aphrodite, Artemis, and Dionysius looked at the unconscious Demeter.

Cerberus, Drakini, Io, and Noah were on the other side looking at the scene.

"I can't believe that something like this would happen…" Said Aphrodite with a heavy voice.

"I don't have an excuse, this is my fault, I put her in danger" Said Alfonso.

"Stop it, uncle, aunty would be sad and angry if she heard you" Said Dionysius.

They stood in silence for some minutes.

"What's next?" 

Alfonso turned and looked at Artemis who was looking at him.

"What are you going to do?" Asked Artemis.

Alfonso looked at Artemis and remembered the first time he saw her, she had the same cold face as now, however, he knew that her eyes now had something else.

Expectation.

Hope.

Alfonso smiled briefly and walked towards his throne. He turned around and faced everyone in the room.

"Of course, we are going to save Demeter" Said Alfonso with confidence.

Artemis smiled after seeing the expression of Alfonso.

"We are going to GreyCastle and save the soul of Demeter" 

Alfonso's eyes turned green and his presence soar.

"AND KILL ANYONE WHO STANDS ON OUR WAY"
