Chapter 5 Returns. part 4

The golden gate is opened, and LINIAS advances on the scarlet carpet, towards the throne.




LINIAS wore black clothes embroidered with gold. A crimson cloak with the clan symbol hung from his shoulders, and a golden gem was on his shoulders. She looked like a dragon's head, and she was shining in all colors.




 




 His clothes increased his prestige.




The enormous throne room was almost filled with radiant crowds, who were welcoming their master back.




On the right side were Blander and behind her four deputies, and behind her deputies were her followers, who wore armor like their leaders. 




Next to her is Silver , and his four deputies are behind him and their followers are behind them.




 




Next to him were a hundred people dressed in black as their leader Pinyas , and behind him were his three deputies. Two men and a woman with long black hair and sharp eyes as its leader.




Next to her was Entus  who was looking at her master as he approached his throne with cloudy eyes. As if she was sailing in the world of dreams, and there was no one behind her.




 




Next to her was Angus, and Celine behind him beside the three deputies, and behind them were their followers who were dressed in black as their leader Angus . Their ruthless appearance looked like they had walked out of a delinquent TV show.




 




At their side was Rivera , and behind her was her only deputy, a young man dressed in red and black. He had hair as long as gold spun threads. behind him  40Beautiful woman , with different hair colors like blooming flowers.




 




Their skin was as pale as white as their Lady Rivera , except that their eyes were natural looking and different from the whole scarlet eyes of Rivera .




 




Next to them was Hicros , and behind him his deputies, who looked like each other, one a young man of sixteen and a girl of eleven beside him. Their shrieked ears were reaching the edge of their heads, and no one was behind them.




Next to them was the professor who was alone Ka Entus .




 




Next to him is Elfam . And behind them all. It was a large group of monsters. She seemed to come out of infernal nightmares, which made LINIAS feel uncomfortable seeing them.




 In front of all this huge number of people. Sirius stood happily. 




LINIAS did not know what to say or what to do under the circumstances he had not dealt with before. 




 




 He was the leader of wise and strong for the clan, however. He was unfamiliar with such huge crowds, who were looking at him sharply as blades of swords.




 However. He kept advancing behind Sinoria who was walking slowly, her spear pounding on the ground with every step. To sound every beat of her spear like the sound of a bell. Sinoria was the servant and guardian of the throne. LINIAS did not understand what that meant at all. 




 




In fact, he seemed annoyed by these strange ceremonies.




Approaching the throne, he passed Rivera , who let out a chuckle as LINIAS slapped her behind her head. The slap sounded, as if he was walking and his hand inadvertently banged her head. However, she knew it was on purpose as LINIAS was upset with her because she had arranged such a wondrous ceremony.




 LINIAS sat on his throne, and stared at the crowds below, feeling a strange feeling in his chest.




 




He lowered his eyes to Sinoria , who was standing under the throne, staring at the crowds before her with sharp eyes. She banged the heel of her spear ten times on the ground with a sound that sounded like silver bells, and the sound sank into the silence of the place.




Sinoria raised her head proudly, and said in a strong voice:




Who is standing now before the king?! ". Her voice echoed in the place. Rivera rose to her feet, and her followers followed her in orderly motions, and advanced to the throne with elegant, resplendent steps. She said:




 




" Rivera Nightmare. One of the great commanders!. I give my ear and obey, and I bow myself before the King!" She got down on one knee, placing her left hand on her heart. Her followers knelt behind her as one person. Rivera raised her eyes to the throne, and smiled sweetly at LINIAS . Blander advanced, followed by her followers, and said:




- " Blander is one of the great leaders, and loyal servant of the King! .I bow in reverence to the King." She and her followers knelt in the clanking of beautiful armor."




 




And Angus followed her in mighty strides:




" Angus !! One of the great leaders... I bow before the King!" With eyes wandering in love, Entus advanced :




Entus , loyal servant of the beautiful king. "And she continued in her heart: The next wife of the king.




 




 She stared at him with sparkling eyes for a long time. For a moment I forgot where you stand. But Sinoria 's spear's voice brought her back from her dreams, and she continued saying:




"I bow in devotion and love to the King." Rivera coughed .




- " Silver . I give my ear and obedience, and I bow in obedience to the King!"




 Penias came forward, his black cloak rippling behind him like the dark waves of the sea, and said in a voice as sharp as his eyes: 




- " Pinias . I am the king's sword, and I bow in subjection to the king." And in a roaring voice. It sounded coming from the depths of a cave: 




- " Hicros . I bow to the leader!!"




" Professor , bow to the King."




 The world has always been funny.. the killer is rewarded the higher the number of victims..




The more you kill, the more prestige you have in the world.




I burned an entire country, and I became a king... pure madness. He said in a strong voice befitting a great king :




"-I will never be king!!" And the words flew over the heads of the crowd like swords. 




 




 Sirius rose from his place, and began to ascend the steps of the throne, raising his head high as if he was going to glory, and said:




- " Sirius .. Vice-Emperor LINIAS Vintos . " He lowered his head and said in a strong voice:




"I offer my hearing and obedience to the Emperor !!" The room shook with the shriek of the crowd, as they all let out a shriek that made LINIAS goosebumps. Even Sinoria shivered in terror:




- "The Emperor!!!!. The Emperor!!!!. The Emperor!!!!. The Emperor!!!!. The Emperor!!!!. The Emperor!!!!"




 




 LINIAS rose from his throne, and there was silence for an instant.




"What are you talking about , Sirius , have you lost your mind?!"




Sirius ' smile widened .




-"I wasn't serious in all my black life like now... what would you be if you were n't an emperor ?" 




"Decorated names... have always hated these things, and everyone who represents them... the ruler of Verna, and that damned ruler made me hate them all!"




"Then crush them all."




"What is life like, Sirius..."




" Indeed, life is as the king wants it to be ." Angrily he said:




"I'm not a king... I'm the clan chief. I've gone along with you on this nonsense!"




 Briefly, Sirius said :




"The clan needs a king."




- " Sirius !!. Enough of the absurdities!!". Sirius sighed in his heart. He knew LINIAS would reject this thing completely. But Sirius didn't stop rolling his cards, and wouldn't finish until LINIAS became king. That's why he looked to Entus to start the plan B.




 




Entus licked her violet lips, swallowing her saliva. LINIAS watched a hand rise, and found it was Entus , she said nervously:




"You have changed, sir. You have become cruel." LINIAS perished on the throne, and with an agonized look he stared at Entus . Don't look at me like that I beg you.! And for a moment she almost screamed and told him it was a lie from Sirius , and she couldn't bear her master to suffer because of it, but she bit her lower lip to stop thinking about these things. 




 




It was all for her master, so she completed the plan, in pain. But, for LINIAS . She seemed to be on the verge of tears.




-" There is no doubt about that... they all died cruelly... I killed them...". Entus became frantic and cried:




"I'm not talking about the damned Verna rams. I'm talking about your subjects!" LINIAS backed away in astonishment and said:




- "Rams? My subjects?"




"I'm talking about the citizens, sir."




"You told me that there was no one left of Verna ." And if there was, I would have killed them all with pure pleasure. But she could n't say those words, so she said:




- "Unfortunately, no one from Verna remained . As for the citizens, they are slaves who sought refuge in this land asking for protection and to live in peace." LINIAS murmured grimly :




"Peace is pure illusion.. Chains are placed around the necks of citizens under the pretext of a peaceful life, but they do not realize that they have become slaves to their rulers.. But.. I do not know.. This land is not ours.. Let them stay in it like us." Entus continued , saying: 




" And what if we were invaded..." LINIAS looked at the candles that were floating in the ceiling of the room without answering. But he lowered his eyes when a childlike voice rose: 




"I ask permission to speak, sir." LINIAS  said :




" Celine , you don't need permission to speak. What is there?"




"I agree with Sirius, this will protect the clan."
