Chapter 124 - Heliohapt Kingdom

__________________________

---Three weeks later---

Two people could be seen sitting on a Shadow Giant Bird while looking at the vast land below.

"Are we close now?" One of them asked seeing some kind of large infastructures in the distance.

"Mmm." The other person replied seeing that they will soon arrive at the place they were heading. He then ordered the Shadow Giant Bird to land somewhere near the place.

This two person were actually John and Yamraiha who finally arrived at Heliohapt Kingdom, a country situated in the north of the Dark Continent.

___________________________

Heliohapt Kingdom,

After entering, John and Yamraiha could now be seen walking while looking at the surroundings seeing several monolithic structure everywhere. Yamraiha was in awe seeing such a place while John was looking at the people seeing them really wearing such reaveling clothes just like in the original.

John and Yamraiha walked for a while looking from place to place seeing different kinds of goods in the market but it mostly had medicinal plants. They walked around before they got stopped by a person who told them to follow him which John and Yamraiha heed and followed him behind.

___________________________

In some sort of palace,

Several people could be seen standing in the place, two of them beeing old and three other people were young but the most notable was the person resembling a teenage man could be seen sitting on the throne with his eyes closed.

"It's been a while since we had a visitor." A man behind the man sitting on the throne said while looking at John and Yamraiha seeing their unfamiliar faces.

"King Armakan, I think it should be best to ask where did this two came from." One of the older person said while looking at the old man beside him which the man sitting on the throne then nodded.

"Visitors, our country was small but I hope you had a good stay here." The old person said while looking at John and Yamraiha with a kind expression.

Hearing his words, John looked at him before observing the man sitting on the throne who was none other than King Armakan, the current ruler of Heliohapt Kingdom, which he could only shook his head.

"Well, I always fond of travelling wanting to visit every places on this world and one of them is Heliohapt Kingdom." John replied seeing that the current Heliohapt Kingdom really wanted to bring peace towards foreign visitors seeing them so kind to the both of them.

"Ohhh, a traveller. Well, you will always be welcome in our kingdom." The man they called King Armakan replied with a smile hearing them being traveller after remembering someone who came here in the past.

John stayed for a while as King Armakan was curios upon their adventure before bidding their farewell excusing themselves that they wanted to visit the notable places of the Kingdom.

After leaving, the two old person inside then looked King Armakan seeing him very quiet after the two left.

"What do you think my brother was doing now?" King Armakan asked remebering the time his brother left the Kingdom deciding to follow a certain man to be this Kingdom's representative.

"Well, he should be fine." The person wearing a bird mascot replied but there were also a hint of worriedness on his voice as they just got some news lately on what happened to them.

In some room in Heliohapt,

John could be seen lying on the bed while thinking about something while Yamraiha was watching him on her bed.

"John, why didn't you take an action earlier. Is it because he's young?" Yamraiha asked as she was confused seeing John didn't do anything as she knew that their purpose of coming here was to steal a Mettal Vessel.

"Well, he doesn't still have one." John replied while telling the truth as he couldn't feel a sort of connection. He then could only say that this probably might not be the time King Armakan conquered a dungeon for himself.

"Ohhh, then what are we going to do now?" Yamraiha asked again seeing that they came here for nothing.

"Well, we might as well enjoy ourselves for a while and stay here for a week." John said while smiling at Yamraiha seeing her getting excited for some reason.

The two then stayed in the Inn for a while before heading outside to see more that this Kingdom could give and used a weeks time to enjoy their stay in the Kingdom.

In a some place like a forest,

A man could be seen lying on the ground while coughing up blood as if he was in great pain.

The man then crawled towards the pond as he looked at his reflection on the water seeing himself in agony.

"I can feel that I could grasp it soon." The man murmurred as he came for some training in this place. Shortly after the pain subsides, he then let himself fell on the pond wanting to wash himself.

---One week later---

In some area in the Dark Continent that was abundant with trees, John and Yamraiha could be seen taking a break after travelling some distance away from Heliohapt Kingdom as they were now on their way back to Artemyra.

"Solomon." John called out which a sudden shadow soldier then came out from before it kneeled down on the ground.

Yamraiha looked at it with curiosity seeing the shadow soldier that she saw for the first time. She then looked at John curious on what he would do seeing him looking at the shadow.

"What's your order, my King." Shadow Soldier Solomon emotionlessly asked upon being called.

John looked at Solomon while thinking that his choice really was correct upon choosing him as the thought that he might easily get the trust and gain the loyalty of the Djinns upon seeing him.

"Forneus, Alloces, come out." John said before the twi eight pointed stars on Infinity shone brightly which right after that two blue giant creatures then appeared right in front them which surprises John as unlike the original which they could appear to be floating and connected to the Metal Vessel, but right now they seem to an independent being seeing them really materialize their whole body in the surface.

John and Yamraiha then looked at the both of them as the two had different appearance. One of them resembles a sea-like monsters seeing it having an appearance same to that of a shark, while other one, on the other hand, was so cool to looked at seeing a person clad in armor sitting on an armored horse while holding a spear on his hand. This two were no other than, Forneus and Alloces respectively.

"Ooohh, am I in a different place again?" Forneues looked at the surroundings seeing that he appeared to be in another place yet again.

"M-My body." Alloces said as after being summoned the first thing he noticed was his whole body really wholly materialized this time as if he was directly transported in the place.

"Ooohhh, you're Alloces. Have you also chosen my stinky contractor as a King. How funny, hahahaha." Forneus said as he laughed hard thinking how did the one he chose as a King conquered Alloces.

"Forneus, you talk too much, I also chosen my King but he's not stinky like yours." Alloces replied before he looked at John and Yamraiha who were in front of them.

"Human, you're quite brave not feeling scared while looking at us. You aren't even a magi, so where's is the person who called us?" Alloces asked as he knew John wasn't a Magi, the same with the girl with him.

"It's my first time seeing Djinn in person. Well, you really are wierd yet ordinary to looked at." John was amused seeing the two of them talking so carefree not knowing the situation they were in.

Yamraiha, on the other hand, stopped what she's doing after seeing two giant blue creatures appeared in John's weapon while talking.

"W-What did you sa---."Forneaus got angry a little but before he could finished his words, he suddenly stopped after seeing the shadow-like creature on John's side.

"K-K-King Solomon!!" Forneus shouted after getting familiar with the presence of the shadow creature which he then moved closer while tugging the other one.

"You really are King Solomon but why do I feel that you're not." Alloces said as he was also shocked upon knowing it.

"Hey human, what is this creature?" Forneus asked while getting very curious on John as he couldn't believe what was happening.

"Well, it's nothing important as my only purpose of summoning you here is that I only wanted to tell you that I will continue using your power so we better get along with each other from now on." John replied seeing them easy to talk and might probably gain their loyalty later on by summoning them from time to time.

The two Djinns looked at John with curiousity upon getting confused on what he was talking about.

"What do you mean by using our power?" Alloces asked as he didn't catch what John's words meant.

"Truth to be told, I stole you from your original contractor, so it's to say that your mine now." John said as it would be better for them to know it soon and also it's better to tell them the truth.

"S-Steal? Are you joking, Human?" Forneus asked not believing what John just said as even if he managed to steal them, there's no way he could use their power. 2

"Then why are you here then?" John replied while smiling seeing the shocked faces of the Djinns who was staring at him.

Hearing John, Forneus and Alloces became quiet as they looked at him with seriousness seeing him really telling the truth as they really couldn't find the person they chose as their King.

"I have one thing to ask." Alloces said as he now became really interest and curious in John upon hearing and seeing several surprises.

"Go ahead." John replied as he had time to talk with them and this would also help him in the process.

"I'm sure you're not a Magi, then who was person who summoned us out and even summoned us to this extent. And lately, why can't I feel the Rukh anymore which even my magoi were gone." Alloces said as some time ago, he found himself not capable of feeling the Rukh anymore but somehow an endless power had replaced it.

"I'm special you see, this weapon of mine can devour any weapon in the world and your Metal Vessel weren't an exception but I can't fully explain why I can summon you out because I just can, and reason that you couldn't feel the Rukh and the magoi in your body were probably because you're now using my power instead of that." John replied with certainty as since they were now a part of him or to be precise a part of Infinity, they must be using his mana to cast magic instead of magoi.

"I already used your abilities before, did you not even feel it?" John asked as he was sure that they could feel it if someone was using their power.

"Now that you mentioned it, someone really used it some time ago which greatly surprises me seeing my contractor finally can utilised my power, are you saying that it was you and not my contractor?" Forneus asked with great surprised upon hearing his words. He too was surprised at that time and thinking that it wasn't his contractor was too hard to believe as no one really can used their power aside from their chosen King.

"Djinn Equip: Forneus." John decided to show it to better show it which right after that, his appearance then transformed to that of a monstrous appearance.

"Y-Y-You, how did you do that? I'm here you know and I didn't feel that you used my power." Forneus was too shocked to see John's appearance right now as it was really the same as his.

"I'm different from any person you think I am, so get used to it but I think this would answer some of your questions." John replied before retracting his Djinn Equip. Forneus words was the true about John wasn't using his power as John directly used the skill that he picked up not from Forneus itself.

Right after that, the mood then became silent as they were now just keep on staring at each other.

"Okay then, you can use my power the way you like." Alloces suddenly break the silence thinking that it's better for John to use him instead of his King candidate that couldn't fully use of his ability but also for the reason that he wanted to know more about him and the creature next to him.

"You really okay with that?" Forneus asked seeing Alloces already giving his consent. Forneus then looked at John before comparing him towards his chosen King which only made his face indescribable after seeing so much difference between them.

"Tch. You can also use mine, then." Forneus said as if he was being forced while looking at John.

"John, what are those?" Yamraiha suddenly asked while poking John's waist as she was curious what are they as she could see several Rukhs swarming on them.

"Those?, well, they were the Djinns that resided in the Metal Vessels that I stole." John replied as he caressed Yamraiha's head as she looked at the Djinns intently.

"Human, as much as I want to stay here and talk to you, let me head back first as I still wanted to see the place I had gone to." Alloces suddenly said which surprised not just Forneus but also John itself.

"Oyy, you're also transferred?" Forneus asked after knowing that he might not just the only one that got transferred to an another dimension.

"What are you talking about?" John asked after getting curious about the place that they were talking.

"Well, I also don't know myself but somehow I found myself and my home to an another place at the same time that I lost my ability to feel the Rukhs." Alloces replied remembering the time his home was being devourved while he and his people couldn't find themselves to stop it.

"Me too. I was surprised at that time after seeing a different world which made me want to cry." Forneus followed as he really felt like crying seeing a beautiful new world after his home was also being devoured.

"Ohhh, t-that happened?" John was surpised hearing such words which he then looked at Infinity fully knowing that it doesn't had such ability.

"Well, just call me again if you have some questions to ask." Alloces said while bidding his farewell but he looked at the Shadow Soldier Solomon first before getting inside of Infinity.

"You can call me too. Goodbye, human." Forneus followed before also leaving off and got inside of Infinity.

"W-Well, that's surprising." John said as he thought they weren't hard to talk to. He then looked at Solomon thinking that it the conversation took a change upon seeing him which he then recalled Solomon on his shadow before looking at Yamraiha.

"How about we continue heading back."John said while smiling at Yamraiha as they already took some time resting but his mind was being occupied by what the Djinns were talking about a new world while thinking what kind of weapon did True God gave him.

"Hmmp. You just wanted to see you wife soon." Yamraiha replied with puffed cheeks thinking that the reason why John wanted head back soon was to be with Queen Mina.

"Hahahaha." John just laughed before a Shadow Giant Bird appeared below them as it flew immediately to the sky.

---Two weeks later---

Artemyra,

A woman could be seen looking at the entrance of the country which she couldn't help but feel surprised seeing how much the place had changed.

The woman then didn't linger any longer outside as she came in before feeling a different aura coming from the country while thinking if she really was in her country.

"Ohhh, its Parsine" A feminine voice then could be heard waking up the woman who was in trance.

"What was happening in Artemyra?" The woman who was actually Parsine, who just returned back after being called directly asked the woman as she wanted to know what happened while she's not around.

"This? Let me show you." The woman replied before grabbing Parsine's hands as she wanted her to see the changes of the place which Parsine could only follow.

But before the two could leave the place, they suddenly heard a very loud roar which all of the people then stopped what they were doing waiting for it to stop before the country got excited all of the sudden.

"What was that?" Parsine asked wanting to know what was that sound as she knew that it wasn't produced by any instrument or from the giant birds.

"That's Entei." The woman answered while smiling as the roar only means one thing.

"Entei? Then, what's good about it making them like that?" Parsine asked with confusion seeing that right after the roar ended the people then became excited for some reason.

"Well, that's because our King was finally back." The woman truthfully answered while imagining handsome face.

"Wait what? K-King!!? When does our country had a King?" Parsine was now very confused as the thought that she really was lost while thinking if this was a dream.

"Yes an-" The woman wanted to say something but was stopped hearing a schreeching sound from the sky before seeing a Shadow Giant Bird heading towards the Palace.

"That's our King." The woman said before pulling Parsine towards the palace as people were also started heading towards that place.

Parsine could only follow wanting to know who this so callled King was while thinking why the people admired him so much.
