The preparation of the Forgeworn Clan's pilgrimage with the entire dwarven race was finally completed.
However, there were still two people who could not bear to leave Leon behind, when he could still stay in the capital for six more days.
"Sigh…" Grandpa Andi looked at the unwilling look on Eli, Leon, and Little Han's faces.
But knowing their situation, Grandpa Andi couldn't also scold them, instead, his heart broke for them even more.
"Grandmaster, if you would permit, I have a suggestion…" Leon finally said.
"Since I am contracted with the spatial king, let me stay with Eli and Little Han for five more days… then I'll let the Spatial King open a doorway to where you are and bring Eli and Little Han to the elders." Leon negotiated.
"No… you using your spatial powers one day before the departure might put you in danger! Remember, we will still use your powers to surprise the enemy and surround them the moment they start the ambush…
If you use your power a day before the battle, with such a large-scale magic sacrifice, even Old Ben and I combined could not help you!" Grandpa Andi vehemently objected because he was genuinely worried for Leon.
It was because of Leon that they were able to have a sense of security. His contract with the spatial king, although not secret to the Prasinons at the moment, was still something they considered a secret weapon.
That is because Leon still did not show the true limit of his abilities. As for what the people and the enemy knew, he could sacrifice all of his mana to transport all the civilians to a nearby mountain just outside the Capital's borders which are approximately 10 to fifteen kilometers.
They also knew that the enemy believed that Leon would really try to do that the moment he realized that they were in ambush, so the camps they had set near the route were already strategically placed to exploit Leon's 'limitations'.
"Leon… I hate to say this but I think Grandpa is right… we cannot let you be exposed to such danger." Eli looked at Leon with a terrified expression especially when she heard the possible implication of Leon's plans.
"Sigh…" Leon was equally helpless as well. If he could, he would stay with them until the last second before his departure. But it seems like there was no other choice but to play safe.
"Alright, Grandmaster, four days… I think two days is enough for my stamina and receptors to recover from a back and forth long distance trip… What do you think?" Leon continued to haggle with Grandpa Andi.
"Do you swear to the Sky Guardian that you are not understating your recovery time?" Grandpa Andi asked with a stern suspicious expression.
"Yes, I swear by the name of the Sky Guardian. May her Grace, Celeste punish me for speaking any lie on this matter…" Leon responded without hesitation and the sky also responded.
Seeing that the sky accepted Leon's oath, Grandpa Andi could only agree. Since Leon was already vouched by the heavens, might as well allow the young ones to have more time with each other.
"Alright then, I'll have to soon inform the His Majesty Emperor and Old Ben. We will be setting off tomorrow before the sun rises." Grandpa Andi helplessly replied.
Then he looked at Leon and reminded him, "You know what to do, send someone to impersonate Eli so that the people will also know that 'she' is with us."
"I will, Grandmaster." Leon obediently replied.
"We will send you off tomorrow, Grandpa…" Eli looked at the understanding Grandpa Andi and was extremely grateful.
"Very well... After all, I will only be with them halfway through the journey, I will part ways with them to go to the places where our allies were stationed." Grandpa Andi finally smiled, clearly delighted by Eli's goodwill.
Grandpa Andi will not actually travel all the way to the Green Wave Institute, he will actually also take advantage of the summons by the Chief Dwarf so that he could go to the armies and assemble them secretly.
Joining the Forgeworns was just for a show, to also try to fool the enemies.
When the time for the departures finally came, the Elders quietly boarded the carriages while the children were still asleep, but through the careful handling of the nannies, they were able to board their respective carriages without any mishaps.
Eli, Little Han, and Leon stood there waiting for the Forgeworns to set off. The skies were still dark and only the occasional neighs and rustles of the movement could be heard.
"Grandma, Mother, Father, please have a safe trip. I will follow you soon." Eli went to hug the elders with Little Han joining them.
"Gweat Gwanma… Gweat Gwanpa… bye bye~~ Johann will see you latwer!"
"Gwanma and Gwanpa too!" Little Han waved his hands and said his adorable goodbyes.
Leon also went to Tyce and the rest of the men to give them assurance to send Eli and Little Han through a portal to join them along the way.
"Before you go… I'll pray to the heavens on your safe trip." Eli looked at Leon and handled Little Han for him to carry.
Then Eli closed her eyes and bowed to the heavens as she sincerely uttered her prayers.
"Oh, bless these gifted people!
Let them go with great confidence and safety.
May the enemies go blink and not look on their way,
Until they arrive at the safe haven you told them to stay!
Oh, bless those who would take battles!
You know that their hands were not made to wrestle…
But with your favor upon them all,
They will swing their swords and lift their shields.
They will charge with their bodies and emerge victorious!
And they will go back and praise You, Oh, Great One,
For it is you who has made them do great things!"
As soon as Eli uttered these words, every member of the Forgeworn clan, even their servants, knights, carriages, and horses, were all covered by a faint holy light.
It lit up the entire assembly area, which made everyone sigh in relief for choosing the forest part of the Estate to be their departure point.
For if it is in front of the manor, everyone will be alerted and the enemies will also suspect that the paladin is with the Forgeworn.
Nevertheless, receiving Eli's blessing caused them to become deeply at peace and amazed. Because they felt that they were covered by something so mysterious yet so ensuring at the same time.
Even the knights felt that their strength and senses increased, making them more capable and confident should an unintended battle come.
"This is Lady Eli's blessing? Wow… it is so awesome and mysterious at the same time! I feel my power increased multiple times!" Calderon was on a carriage with Elifas and they were also covered by Eli's light.
"Indeed, her blessings were incomparable. We can rest assured that we have the entire heavens backing us up in the journey." Kayden, who was also in their carriage, commented. "What's more, her blessings will become stronger the moment she will be finally wedded to Leon.."
"Amazing…" Elifas stared dazedly at his fist, if not for the fact that they have already boarded the carriage, he would have gone to a tree and tested the extent of improvement he gained from Eli's power.
Too bad, it is time for them to depart. The battle happening on this continent was not for them to face.
"All set! We are good to go!" Grandpa Andi mounted his horse and signaled everyone to get ready.
Taking one last glance at Eli, Grandpa Andi smiled and said, "See you along the way!"
"Have a safe trip, Grandpa Andi! Keep safe and be well!" Eli replied as the three of them waved the Forgeworns goodbye.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
