Chapter 57 Wartime
57 Wartime
.....
It was only after ten hours that the room reverted to its original, tranquil state. The moans and pants finally stopped, followed by snoring sounds.
On the bed, Nova was hugging both Destiny and Elizabeth. They looked exhausted. If one were to enter the room right now, their senses would be assaulted by the strong smell of cum.
After sleeping for another few hours, the trio woke up. Elizabeth was the first to get up, and she looked around before blushing. Still not quite believing what had happened, she snuggled closer to Nova's chest before pretending to be asleep.
Her sudden moves woke the other two. They were still recovering their stamina after the long battle.
"Morning, beautiful." Said Nova while kissing Destiny on the forehead. Elizabeth was slightly envious of this, as she, too, wanted to be kissed.
'Wait, what am I thinking? It's the last time we'll do something like this anyway...'
Nova saw that Elizabeth was pretending to be asleep, but he didn't care much. He continued to cuddle and talk in a low voice with Destiny. They kissed and hugged for a while before getting up and 'waking' Elizabeth. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Wake up, Elizabeth! We've been missing for almost a day. The Marquises must be worried. Let's go before anyone notices something." Destiny quickly took hold of Elizabeth before throwing Nova out of the room, much to his confusion.
He could hear the girls we're taking a bath without him, and his lips couldn't but twitch.
'I'm going to pay you back for this...' Thought a Nova full of vengeance. Still remembering what he did with the two of them, he couldn't help but smile.
Half an hour later, the girls got out of the room full of smiles. Together with a frustrated Nova, they made way for the commandment room.
There was only one man present inside, Marquis Bernon. He was seemingly waiting for them.
When the trio entered the room, Marquis Bernon looked unfazed and started his report about what happened in the meanwhile.
"We've received news from the battlefield. His Majesty, along with the brave men and women of our kingdom, successfully took back 70% of the conquered land.
The most crucial piece of news is that Sword Master Hogan killed a Universe Stage powerhouse of the beastmens. Of course, this incited anger from our enemies as they tried to mob him.
His Majesty and the other Universe Stage powerhouses confronted the enemy and are still currently battling as we speak.
The other invading forces in our kingdom have been repelled, and the only active battle is the one at the border. A conscription order was issued for all those above Peak Stage 9 to take their weapons and go to war. " Bernon ended his speech with a sigh of relief as the situation was getting better for them.
The three of them were stunned hearing this many things happened. Destiny was the first to speak her thoughts.
"As it's a conscription order issued by His Majesty, I must also go to the battlefield." She barely finished her words before two rebuttals were heard.
"No, you can't go, Destiny!"
"Absolutely not!"
Nova's and Elizabeth's voices opposed Destiny's decision to go to war.
"You must stay here in the Capital. If you go to battle, you're an easy target. The beastmen will most likely capture you and threaten the Emperor. Or worse...they will kill you directly." Said Elizabeth, earning a nod from Nova.
"I'm going to the battlefield as I initially wanted to. But you must stay here where it's safe as your identity is too important and could have a negative impact on the war in general." Said Nova surprising those in the room.
Destiny wanted to rebuke him, but then she remembered what he said about his mission and goal. She was torn apart seeing him wanting to go to war for her kingdom, while she safely stayed in the Capital.
Her eyes slightly blurred, and a few tears threatened to spill out. Marquis Bernon and Duchess Elizabeth were worried seeing her like this. Nova quickly hugged and kissed her to calm her down.
Marquis Bernon was the only one in the room to be surprised to see Destiny being kissed by a man they met a few days ago, as Elizabeth was used to it after the crazy night.
After Destiny was pacified, she accepted the truth. She knew she would be a burden, so she decided to stay back.
"Promise me you will take care of yourself! If a dangerous situation occurs, you must run. Don't play the hero!" Destiny wished good luck before leaving the room hurriedly, the tears from before couldn't be stopped anymore and she didn't want Nova and Elizabeth to see her like this.
After making a few plans, Nova was prepared to go to war, when suddenly Elizabeth approached him.
"I'm coming with you. I'm a Duchess of the Human Kingdom and can't shrink my responsibilities."
"Aren't you going to stay with Destiny? She seemed very upset. Besides you're currently one of the strongest warrior. What if an enemy decides to invade the Capital while you're gone?"
"It's not so simple. For now, the Capital is safe. The border war is the one that will decide everything."
Nova was confused by her statement. He couldn't wrap his head around this and gave her a curious look.
Noticing Nova's confused stare, Elizabeth didn't know how to explain it. "It's just a hunch of mine, but the current situation doesn't make sense. The beast men couldn't possibly invade our kingdom so simply. They surely got help from someone..." She finished her words with another cliffhanger for Nova.
Not pursuing the matter, Nova only nodded before following Elizabeth out of the Capital. The two of them made their way to the border. It will take them a few hours to get there, and so they speeded up.

"Your Majesty, we received news that Duchess Elizabeth is currently heading for the border, followed by a young man." Said a man to the Emperor, that was currently meditating to heal his injuries from the head on clash between himself and the Beast Emperor.
"Oh? If Eliza is coming, then something must be fishy. She surely has smelled a conspiracy. By the way, who is that young man following her?" Asked the Emperor to his subordinate.
"This...Your Majesty his name is Nova and he is a Middle Nebula Stage warrior. We have information about him because he seemed to save her Highness, Princess Destiny's life before."
Said Arundel looking uncomfortable talking about Nova.
The Emperor frowned for a while before asking.
"What is it? Have you gotten something on him?"
"Umm... we've only got a piece of information that he came from Jivili City after saving Princess Destiny before secluding himself in her room for almost a day. Princess Destiny was in the room the whole time..." Arundel barely finished his words before he felt a massive pressure bearing down on him.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!!!" The shout was heard from one corner of the battlefield to the other, scaring everyone who heard it.
Even the Beast Emperor was frightened for a while and got goosebumps.
'What could possibly infuriate that idiot so much?'
