Lord of the Truth

Chapter 12

The beast Zone was the well-known border between the Duchesses of Bradley and Alton, but there was a small safe passage on the border called the Fiery gates, used by traders and weak travelers.. this was the goal of Robin and Caesar.

Although the name sounds dangerous, it wouldnʼt be worse Than dealing with the beasts! They got out of the beast zone and went around it for a few hundred miles to take the safe road, But unfortunately, it was safe from beasts, not humans!

Two mortal children with a big bag are considered a moving piece of meat in the eyes of many. for that Robin and Caesar had to use their experience to the utmost degree. They would march quickly at noon in the middle of the roads to be under the protection of the public then disappear completely for the rest of the day.

But this strategy, in addition to the already long road, had made the estimated time of arrival takes much longer. Almost a month had passed, and they had barely reached the fiery gates. Surprisingly, the ”border” was just a small town written on its entrance, ”the fiery”, which made Robin burst out laughing.

But after thinking, this can be understood... The two duchesses belong to the Kingdom of the Black Sun, and there should be no strong borders between them. Robin chose one of the street merchants and stopped him, ”Uncle, how do we reach the capital of the Duchy.. the one where the Duke and his family live.”

”You want to go to Bradley Pearl City? Move north-east for two hundred miles, but donʼt get your hopes up, I donʼt think youʼll be let in.” The man snorted, looking down at the two children.

”Oh, looks like we have another long walk, Dad. Letʼs rest here at least a few hours.” Caesar murmured

”..Okay, heh~ Kids these days donʼt have enough determination! ” Robin said as he walked towards a tall tree started climbing it and with Caesar right behind.

the street merchant went silent as he heard this weird conversation ”0_0”

-------

Another two weeks passed before the two children reached the gate of the city of Bradleyʼs pearl. It was a huge city with high walls worthy of being the heart of the duchy, at least it was much better than the city of Jura in which he was born

”stop where you are!” shouted one of the guards while pointing the spear at them. ”Where do you think yourselves are going? If youʼre not a resident or you donʼt have an invitation, then get lost at once,”

”Lady Mila Bradley was the one who invited me.” Robin declared loudly to attract the attention of the rest of the guards, and he had what he wanted..and a little more... all the guards and all the commoners inside and outside the gate looked at him at the same time.

”You... do you know the penalty for lying about something that concerns lady Mila?” The soldier started looking at Robin as if he was a dead person.

”Just tell her that the person who saved her life in the Outer Beast zone over a hundred years ago was the one who sent me, and I hope you will understand how serious the situation is. if you try to bully me or donʼt send the message.. you will pay with your blood!” Robin said it firmly, but actually, he looked cute.

However, his words were enough to frighten all the guards *the one who saved her life*... If this boy was right and they behaved badly with him, their heads and the heads of their families too would fly, ”Go to the Ducal Palace and tell lady Mila what is happening here!” The chief of the guard said to his nearest soldier.

Then he looked at Robin from top to bottom ”I hope youʼre right, I advise you to wish that too...” As his eyes flashed with killing but disappeared quickly.

Robin leaned on Caesar, ”Hey, when I give you the signal, throw the bag at the nearest guard and run to the right, Iʼll run to the left. let us meet at the last tree we slept on yesterday.”

”Are you kidding me?! was this all a show? Those guards are going to eat us alive!” Caesar tried to keep his voice as low as possible.

”She looked like a woman of her word, but maybe she became a bitch over time, how should I know what would be her reaction?” Robin shrugged and took a step away from Caesar, he was getting ready to run away.

--------

After ten minutes of a suffocating atmosphere, the guard came back alone, this made the situation became even more tense, but soon a beautiful lady with a sexy body fell from the sky. When Robin saw her face, he knew who she was right away ʼitʼs her!ʼ

Then he looked at her big breasts, which made him re-think her identity for a moment. but it was confirmed when he saw all the guards bowing before her.

The woman remained in place for a few moments as well after her eyes fell on Robin, ”Send him to my house!” She pointed at Robin coldly then turned and flew away as splendidly as she came.

”You idiots? You almost killed yourselves! hahaha Dad is a special guest of the dukeʼs daughter herself! Come on, bow before him!! hahahaha” Caesar exploded uncontrollably when he knew the life and death situation was over.

hearing *dad* made all the guards look at him in the same way as the merchant 0_0. in the end, they came to a conclusion that it might be a weird nickname or something.

meanwhile, Robin and Caesar, accompanied by two of the guards, set out towards Milaʼs house. On the way, Robin grabbed him and said, ”Hey, stop calling me Dad! You look taller and stronger than me now, you bulky bastard, Call me Big Brother.”

Caesar found it difficult to respond to him, but he nodded.. It had been more than 26 years when he first called him dad, any other title seemed strange to him.

---------

The two soldiers delivered both of them to the huge house of lady Mila, which was located next to the Ducal Palace itself, and told the servants of the house what had happened them departed.

the servant escorted Robin and Caesar to the main hall of the house and asked them to wait there until the lady comes back, and told them that it might take several hours or maybe days until she returns.

Robin accepted and went to sit on one of the chairs ready to fill his long wait with cultivation... When the servant made sure everything was in place, he left the room.

at that moment a shadow flashed through the window and grabbed Robinʼs neck, ”WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU?!”

It was Mila.. She wasnʼt even half as calm as she seemed when they met at the gate. she was shoked when she was Robin in front of her, but she didnʼt want to make a scene in front of all those guards and commoners. but here acting is unnecessary.

”why is everyone asking me this question recently! am I very handsome for a human?” Robin laughed, ignoring that he was being choked.

”donʼt you dare try to change the subject! more than a century ago you were already old and at the tenth level of energy foundation. How is it possible that you are now a twelve-year-old and you arenʼt even at the first level of energy foundation?! !!” Mila shouted as she tightened her grip on Robinʼs neck.

”....alright itʼs me, I didnʼt think you had such a strong memory, it seems like I left a long-lasting impression, hah? hehe, but you made a mistake in one thing... I wasnʼt old at the time, I was a teenager just like you!” Robin said with a weak voice, being hanged in mid-air wasnʼt fun at all...

”LIAR!” She threw him aside but controlled her strength to make sure not to harm him greatly, ”I was and still the absolute genius in the entire kingdom, no one inside the black Sun kingdom would dare say he had a better talent than me, but you say that you were stronger than me by a whole level when we were at the same age?!”

”Is that old man still alive?” Robin said as he shook off his clothes after the fall

”Who do you mean?” Mila narrowed her eyes

”The old man who was taking care of your safety when we met, he must have spotted my real age back then, bring him here and he can testify, let us talk after that!”
