The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1302 Hope for the Future

He was about to explode with anger, his entire body engulfed in a murderous aura. "They dare lay their hands on our King!" the man growled like an angry beast.

"Yes, but I lack evidence to prove my conviction, that's why I planned to sneak into the Aeon institution," said Lory meaningfully.

The old man's eyes lit up, "That's why you came here!"

"Yup, though I admit it, It's only by sheer luck I could found your shop in this city" Lory raised her brows.

Since they planning to infiltrate the Aeon Institute Lory knew she would need thorough preparation therefore he looked for a weaponry store that could meet his needs while at the same time being willing to keep their exchange a secret.

There weren't many shops like that because most of the weapon shops were under the World Guild association, because to get clients the weapon shop had to cooperate with many Guilds so that the Guild would recommend their shop to hunters who looking for good weapons, whether they need to upgrade, customize, whatnot. However, Bellerophon was different, it was the customer who begged the Bellerophon shop to get their services.

Lory stumbled into one of the forums of the Blacksmith who ranted about the Bellerophon in this city and how that worries them the store will be taken away from their client, during their ranting Lory found the location of the store, is that not all luck than what it is! "This is a very high-risk plan you have got there, Your Majesty" The old man expressed his concern.

Lory's beautiful purple eyes twinkle as she grins broadly, "Well, I'm used to it"

Hadius expression turned soft, "Yes, you are right, Your Highness"

No one knows behind the glory and fame because Lucient's heirs, Lory, and Lucas have been trained rigorously even before they awakened their powers and the first thing they thought about was how to build stamina so they could run for an extended amount of time and also fast.

The reason they give is because no matter how good their protection is, one day there will come a time when they have to fight desperately alone, so if they want to survive the first thing they have to do is know how to run.

He couldn't imagine how scary it might be for small children, even the Alvette's children would cower under their mother's arms facing such a reality but the Prince and Princess remained steadfast, they followed the order and trained themselves to the bones and when they were finally faced with the darkest moment of their lives, the gleam in their beautiful purple eyes never ceased to exist.

"If that's your plan, then Bellerophon will be at your service" Hadius bowed his head.

"If that is your plan, then Bellerophon will be at your service" Hadius lowered his head.

"Okay, why don't we start with the armor suit" Lory shifts her eyes to the suit behind the glass display.

Hadius elated, "As you wish!"

He opened the glass case and then slowly took out a suit then placed it on the table "Made from ancient Scylla fine hide, then woven carefully with the Siren's hair, as you can see, the suit is strong but light, tough on the outside but soft against your skin, it can even mimic your skin tone so it would visible for a starter and only reveal itself when you released your Mana"

Lory felt the suit with her fingers, she could feel the strong affinity, "Good affinity for the water gifted," Lory smiled in satisfaction.

"Indeed, I made it for you, the most powerful water talent that ever lived in Verrion" Hadius smiled broadly.

"What about Lucas? What kind of protective suit was made for him?" Lory was curious.

Hadius excitement faded away then his face turned into a mask of sorrow and disappointment "I made his Highness suit made from the finest finehide from the Sphinx and Caladrius Core then sewed it with a unisus's mane. The armor suit should be impregnable but he...Now I'm not sure if my suit could protect you your higness" he said with a remorse tone.

"That might not necessarily be true, I knew how great the Alvette family's craftmanship and I also knew how extraordinary the material you used so what I mean is, the enemy might not used direct assault like hitting or such..."Lory ponders for a few seconds.

"Your Highness, do you mean the enemy used some trick to hurt the King" Hadius's anger flared once again.

"Well, just think about it" Lory cross her arms in front of her chest

"Lucas is very strong, he might be the strongest man in the world so who can hurt him to the point his mana got drained?"

"That ..." Hadius clenched his fist, Honestly this was also the reason he was not worried when he heard Lucas was involved in the terrorist attack, why would he? This is the man who slayed Nazareth with his own hands! "Do you have thoughts, princess?" Hadius could only hope for Princess Lucient's wisdom.

"I have two big questions, first, how do they hurt Lucas, and second ... what caused the very large collection of Lucient to be drained so badly that it needed an engine to maintain it?"

Hadius and Lory sank into their own thoughts but none of them could get a satisfying explanation.

"Your Majesty, I got contact with Fargo, even though I could not contact him at this time but I got direct contact with Harland staff, do you want me to contact them to tell them about your arrival?" Hadius thinks the only way to solve this problem is to go to Harland directly.

Lory smiled amused, "If you tell them that Princess Lorient is here, what do you think they will do?"

Hadius looked back and then smiled wryly, "I think they will send NOXCRA agents to treat me with strong prejudices" which means he might think he has been stupid with enemies or colluding with enemies so he must be destroyed together with the enemy.

"That's right, actually I asked my friend ex-Ultima Infantry to get Fargo or other contacts but luckily he didn't get anything if he did, the situation might turn to the worse for him..." Lory didn't know the situation would be so bad in Harland. He could only imagine how sensitive they were if anyone mentioned Lucient's name.

"Besides, I don't want the enemy to know I'm still alive, let them think they managed to harm the last Lucients, only then we can find out what their goals are and which parties are involved in this scheme, when we get set and done we will strike them, once for all" Lory beautiful purple eyes glow as she spoke.

Hadius expression brimmed with exhilaration, and anticipation. He feels he can relate to his ancestor's feelings when they met King Arkheon, once upon a time. His ancestor might feel the same way as him which is a hope, a full genuine hope for a better future.

Lory turned her head at Lydia, "Sorry, are you waiting too long?"

Lydia smile in relief "No, I'm alright"

"But, you might"But... I think you can arrange a meeting for me with them, I don't think they won't believe it if they don't see me in person," said Lory

Hadius felt that Lory was right, hence, Hadius gave a firm nod "I will find a way, princess, I will not disappoint you."

Outside, Lydia has been waiting apprehensively. She keeps looking at the door where Lory disappears with the store manager, thankfully when she almost can't take anymore Lory gets out with the manager.

Lory turned her head at Lydia, "Sorry, are you waiting too long?"

Lydia smile in relief "No, I'm alright"

"Is she got everything she needs?" Lory asks Hadius.

Hadius snapped his fingers at the shop assistant and immediately gave the list of everything Lydia had, "Please wait a moment" he courteously said. The shop assistant widened her eyes in surprise, she had never seen Hadius show so much politeness to anyone not even to the leader of the World Guild association.

The shop assistant who is also part of the Alvette family knew family her family character. The Alvette family have so much pride in their talent thus they believe it is a blessing for anyone who receives their service therefore unlike any other shop, The Bellerophon employee never bows their head toward their customers it's always the other way around instead, it's even more so for Master Blacksmith like Hadius. Therefore watching Hadius treat this woman with so much reverence was mind-boggling. The shop assistant had no time to dwell in her thought when Hadius suddenly called her, "Change the salamander bracelet to mermaid earing for fire and blast resistance, since she is a healer this will suit her more, Also add Zalpein belt to camouflaged, just in case she needs to hide..." Hadius changed a few things untill he was satisfied.

The shop assistant nods monotonely 'Who are you - who am I?'

"This is all I can do for now, Your - Miss Jane" Hadius smoothly corrected himself.

"This is enough" Lory didn't doubt Hadius's words at all, "Okay, thank you for your service" Lory thanked Hadius and his assistant and then signaled Lydia to leave.

Hadius gave a slight nod, "Save travel, and may the light guide you"

They throw each other a meaningful gaze, later on, Lory gives a brief nod and smiles before she leaves. Meanwhile, Hadius stood behind the window with his hands in his pockets, he watched Lory's figure walk away until her figure disappeared completely.
