People of Ken cheered for their heroes the Dawn Templars, Knights of Blood, Knights of Iris and the Silver Foxes.
At first hope seemed to be dimmed for the lands of Eostia but thanks to heroes like Aegeus hope remained. "After the onslaught it came clear Volt was leading the attack also Samuel has been captured so liberating High Rock was easier to do" Taylor says.
"Aegeus you said that Nakhu's forces just surrender and he committed suicide?" Claudia asked, "Yes Lady Claudia, I had no ill will towards him as I do with Volt after that Shamuhaza appeared and summoned a being known as Chernabog but thanks to assist of Alicia, Maia and Kaguya we were able to defeat him"
"Aegeus looked like he could handle his own quite well" Maia smirked, "Maybe but thank you three I was able to beat him" Aegeus gave a smile which Maia blushed then look down to hide her shame.
Taylor cleared his throat as he spoke "Thanks to the Silver Foxes we can focus on a single front now however a spy of ours says Volt gained some new allies so we're far from total victory til we absolutely destroy them peace with Volt won't happen"
Claudia sighed and said "Taylor is right Volt is ruthless but he won't stop til he's victorious"
"My Silver Foxes can handle Volt...After all he tried to destroy the Silver Foxes but I was able to rebuild them I'll make sure the Black Dogs are no longer a threat to Eostia or even all of Eos" Aegeus says.
The Allliance looked at Aegeus then begin to applaud.
The war was still in the Alliance Favor and with the Kjolrians commiting to their raid against the Black Dogs makes victory ensured.
Aegeus sat down in a tavern with Taylor as they talked. "To hard to believe my little brother is a Mercenary" Taylor says drinking.
"We already gone through this Taylor..." Aegeus said, "I know but still" Taylor spoke again.
"The Church is doing quite fine actually" Aegeus tells Taylor then he chuckled "That's great to hear ever since I left to become a Knight" Taylor took another drink.
"So Aegeus I've seen you gotten close to Alicia" Taylor says which Aegeus scratched his chin "Y-Yeah well..." He muttered.
"It's nothing I can say" He says burying himself into his arms which Taylor just laughed. The two stepped out of the tavern, Aegeus muttered while Taylor talked about how when they were children they talked about their dreams.
Suddenly the sound of arguing became clear to them as they went to source. It was some of the members of the High Church and with them was their Archbishop as he argued with Momo and Eza.
"What's going on here?" Aegeus asked, "Boss the Archbishop is kicking people out!" Eza said.
"Sir Aegeus do understand we don't have enough room for these refugees-" The Archbishop stated by Momo cut him off.
"That's a lie! you have a enough room to help them your just casting them aside!" Momo says angrily but Aegeus held her shoulder "Calm down Momo...Archbishop I'm from the Church of Feoh, please understand these refugees need help"
"Mean so Sir Aegeus the Church can only do so much we can't-" Momo shouted out again "Boss he's lying! I heard the conversation they don't care about the people!"
"Insolence little wench! you dare eavesdrop on private affairs!" The Archbishop shouted but Aegeus blocked him from Momo with his body "Please ease yourself, my mother was a Nun even she knows these people need help"
"Your mother a Nun? pah! if she's a Nun and your mother then she's a whore for breaking her purity especially the rest of the nuns of Feoh!" Aegeus just snapped as he grabbed the Archbishop by the throat and lift him up.
"θα συνθλίψω το κρανίο σου γαμώτο..." Aegeus hissed. /That was a threat/
When the guards try to get involved a few members of the Silver Foxes drew their weapons.
"Back up!" Maxon shouted holding her rapier, Eza held the handle of her sword tightly. "Aegeus put him down!" Taylor ordered his brother.
Aegeus couldn't hear Taylor as he just tighten his grip onto the Archbishop's neck causing him to struggle for air.
"Aegeus let him go right now" Taylor said once more this time Aegeus listen dropped the Archbishop as he coughed.
"You damn Mercenary! I'll have you arrested for this!" He shouted, "Silence Archbishop! I'll be ordering an investigation onto the Church to learn of these allegations I'll handle my brother"
"But-" "I said be silent!" Taylor shouted. The rest of the Silver Foxes stand down and put their arms away, "Lady Celestine will have to hear about this you know this right Aegeus?" Taylor tells him.
"I know..." He says with a huff of anger.
Celestine and Claudia couldn't believe what they were hearing, the Archbishop was throwing out refugees and Taylor has to conduct an investigation and Aegeus nearly killed the Archbishop of the Church.
"I-Is this true Sir Aegeus?" Celestine asks hoping it's a misunderstanding, "Yes...I wanted to break his neck..." He said in anger.
Celestine whimpered a bit from his tone, "I-I see but Sir Aegeus we can't have this happen"
"I know..." Aegeus said, Celestine can tell he regrets his decision but he still is angered by the Archbishop.
"Lady Celestine I'm sure my brother didn't mean it, Aegeus' mother was a nun of the Church who sadly passed from child birth and the Church was home to me and Aegeus as the rest of the sisters were mothers to us" Taylor said.
Celestine nodded "I understand you are dismissed Sir Taylor" Taylor bowed his head and looked at Aegeus with a look of 'Good luck'
"Sir Aegeus I do believe I should tell you about your mother...it's my fault of her passing...Your father the God of another realm Zeus had to leave as other Realms can't have a existing God of another without the fear of a cataclysm..." She says.
"Then why I'm still here?" Aegeus asked, "Because you are still born of this land and your only a Demigod Aegeus still...It's my fault I take full responsibility for everything...I ask if you can forgive me" She says her eyes begining to water.
Aegeus looked at her as he stood up and walked to her, Aegeus wiped her tears away "Please don't blame yourself for something out of your control Lady Celestine"
"Please...just Celestine I don't deserve such a title such as Lady..." She says, Claudia looked over worried "My Goddess.."
"Celestine then...I don't hate you for anything...I hate Volt...He was a hero to all of us he began this war, the Silver Foxes were a group lead by Mason who died fighting for Eostia now I'm continuing his legacy with my Silver Foxes I swore to fight for Eostia and all of Eos and I still will" He says.
Celestine looked up at Aegeus with a blush, he was very calming and handsome man. Celestine was lost as she looked into his eyes.
She began to wonder is it possible for someone like her? to be with someone like Aegeus?
"Lady Celestine?" He says which Celestine snapped out of her trance. "Yes yes thank you Sir Aegeus...Your dismissed"
Aegeus nodded and stepped down as went to garrison his forces. Celestine held her chest tightly feeling her heart beat very fast when Aegeus was close to her.
"Are you alright Lady Celestine?" Claudia asked, "Yes I am Claudia just...just a bit light headed I'll be returning to my room to rest" She says stepping down from her throne and walked to her room.
In her bedchamber she sat down holding her chest more as she thought of Aegeus, he was courageous and kind man.
Celestine believes she's falling for him, tho she's aware of his and Alicia's relationship and how close they were when they were children.
Celestine bite her lip, it felt difficult for her but Aegeus had some kind of control on her. Celestine touched her cheeks as her face was burning from embarrassment.
"Aegeus..." She said to herself then she lightly touched her breast as she let out a small gasp "Aegeus..." She moaned then felt herself rubbing herself it felt wrong but at the same time just right.
"Aegeus~"
Aegeus pulled his fingerless gauntlets tightly then flexed his hands, Hephaestus did great work on his armor.
Aegeus still hasn't forgotten his promise to Hephaestus, "There's my warrior~" Olga says hugging him from behind.
"Lady Olga?" Aegeus looked over "I've missed you dearly Aegeus~" She says, Aegeus blushed a bit feeling Olga being close him.
"For a human your very kind even to a Dark Elf like me Dear boy" Olga says, "Well yeah I was raised to be respectful to women, that's one of my duties as a man"
Olga giggled a bit at his reason then she held his hand and walked "Follow me Aegeus"
"O-Oh okay" He says and followed.
Things are gonna get spicy for Aegeus and things are going to get rough for Volt
