Chapter 178: Prince Julio's Fall, Literally

"That's interesting..." Galion commented as he was reducing the distance between the two.

"If only we were not killed once, I could have slapped your old wrinkly ass to death!" Queen Teresa shouted.

"Killed once...?" Galion raised an eyebrow. Although he may look calm and unperturbed, he was actually anxious inside, 'If what she said was true then that explains why the old queen I asked before in the Hansheles Kingdom stayed quiet. It also meant that Haliviana has back-ups after all. Are there more than just one Rank Ey in the three kingdoms? There should be more of Haliviana's descendants then.'

"Do you mean the Hansheles Kingdom is already on our side from the start?! Why didn't you tell me that!?" King Isero shouted at his wife. 

Normally, a lower rank would never treat the higher rank like this. But the two had been husband and wife for literally a century.

"It's because you will think that the Rianzares Kingdom should be dealt with since they are a branch of the Vario Family!"

"What's stopping us from dealing with them!?"

Queen Teresa stayed quiet for a while before answering with a quivering voice.

"The Vario Family is more than you can imagine. The reason why Ancestor Haliviana hid even though she was at the pinnacle of power back then was because of the Vario Family!" she continued, drying her saliva while the king on her arms was stupefied, "That's why, we, her descendants are hiding since the Rianzares Kingdom was there, surveying the land. They didn't know that Haliviana is actually the inheritor of the Plant Origin from the Sentient Grand Tree, Herandiu!"

""WHAT!?"" even the old Galion shouted with his eyes wide open.

"That inheritor died back then, stopping the true lineage of Plant Elementalist! Only God Centre have a breakthrough, reviving it with his Life Element!" Galion was unable to accept it but before he continued speaking, he trembled, "KALIN!"

"Give us the princess and heal our son!" Numui and Shamira, the only people of the Romen Family surrounded the Royal-Knight Captain in the midst of a forest fire.

"You are already cornered. If you don't relent, we will have to force you and the princess!" the two were bloodied but in front of the Royal-Knight Captain, they were as fierce as tigers.

Before Queen Teresa reached the place, she saw the dead bodies of the nobles, "Useless things!" she growled.

But the truth was they were they became casualties from Kalin's travel. They received grave injuries. It was just a simple travel elesp from Galion, it was not even an offensive elesp yet the Rank Dih had died and the Rank Cee mourns while on the verge of death.

Truly, the gap between ranks is too immense!

After a while, Numui and Shamira who were following their son to ensure his success and safety met them and finished them off. Since Plant Elementalists have a great recovery, they gave enough resistance against the couple. This is the reason why the couple is in their state.

They are not for fighting after all and they are outnumbered. But it was the same for these nobles who are in the Trading-Hills Capital where they prioritize businesses.

"Queen!" Edora joyfully shouted. She was beginning to feel light-headed due to the smoke that covered the area.

Hearing her shout, the Romen couple shivered and looked in the direction Edora's eyes were and their fear became reality.

But seeing the meteor-like fire following the King and Queen of Karan, the couple became elated as well.

"Grandpa Galion!"

"Good work, Edora!" the queen was first to reach them and took the princess away, leaving the bodyguard alone in the middle of the forest fire.

"..." Edora only has her jaw dropped.

Near the former pool, the giant's step finally landed, cracking the land and creating a gigantic web of a crater on the area.

"Protect the others!" a marquis, the one who covered Prince Julio earlier shouted as they saw hills and trenches were forming as the giant's right foot descended.

"Memi! Wake up!" being Earth Elementalists, the nobles from the Hansheles Kingdom actually made use of the traveling shockwave the single step created!

All Rank Cees helped each other, creating a platform like a boat, carrying them on the tides of the earthquake.

Grr...

After that single step, the giant unknowingly stepped on its own golden hair, making it trip slowly forward.

"GAAAWWDDAAHMNITT---!!" the giant seemingly cursed out of its core that shook the skies. It slammed its face forward, creating a boom around with clouds of dust billowing and shockwaves destroying the whole resort.

Its arms were slow but it held itself up before its body dropped on the group. But it doesn't mean that it didn't create another shockwave!

Looking far away, from the Romen Mansion, Jamina and her co-workers looked at the scene with fright. With the height of the mansion, they have a great view they were not enjoying.

The shockwaves hit them and they desperately grabbed onto the firm pillars. They were lucky that as the richest family in the capital, the mansion was built not to be easily destroyed with devastating natural calamities.

It only cracked some of their walls and that was it. While the wind and dust came like sandstorms.

When it was only the aftershock that trembled the ground, the servants stood up and looked at what's in front of them.

"... it.... destroyed the capital with its... one fall..." the young servant, Heitu muttered. As someone who had yet to see the true prowess of a Rank Cee Elementalist, the scene in front of him was like a dream.

Other structures were not like the Romen Household, They were frail in comparison while the tactful mansions were fell along.

Jamina breathed heavily, "... Relle..."

Entering the main road, King Isero sighed in relief after seeing that their daughter was still fine. But looking behind them, he raised an eyebrow, "Isn't that thing a little bit useless? It only destroyed the capital which is devastating to us!"

"Don't worry, it's just the beginning. Once the core learns that its weight and size is not the real power of the Hundred Beast Assimilation, that thing will become the most terrifying!"

When King Isero was about to speak again about what the Queen was explaining earlier, a shout reverberated, "COME BACK HERE WITH THE PRINCESS!!"

The King looked back and saw a demon's face with its mouth ready to devour them.

"My Queen!!"
