Zeno POV:
What am I laying on? It's so….soft?
The softness of the thing I am laying on is so addicting, am I dreaming? No it feels too real, I thought as I opened my eyes, just to see the trees, and the sky all moving around me, no it wasn't the trees that were moving around me, it was me who was moving,
'Good morning Zeno'
I heard a voice in my head, and as soon as I heard the voice, I remembered everything, that happened before I was knocked out.
When I remembered it all I stood up and looked at my body, there were no….cuts.
'I healed you while you were sleeping, and I even had to wash your body you were covered in blood all over' I heard Lord Nova's voice as he lifted me with his magic and put me in front of him, on the ground.
As soon as my feet touched the ground I bowed down as low as I could,
"I-I am sorry for disappointing you Lord Nova," I said, I had failed him.
As I bowed down I closed my eyes, the reason behind it I have no idea. It just felt right. He had given me the chance to prove myself and I had failed miserably,
I had fainted while fighting, and as I thought this the image of my daughter and wife came to mind while I remembered what lord nova had asked me,
what would you have done if he did this to your wife or your daughter?
What would I have done? What would I could even do if that happened, I am….weak,
While fighting I could not help but think this to myself, I was so weak that I couldn't defeat him even if my wife and daughter were there.
I am a failure….
'Disappointing? No, not really' I heard Lord nova's voice.
"B-but, I fainted while fighting," I said, my voice cracking.
'So what? That just shows me that you put your all into that fight' he said,
"But-but I" I tried to say,
'No buts, or balls. it doesn't matter' he said,
'Now then tell me what you learned from the things that happen back there
"I am weak"
'I already know that, tell me what did you learn other than that he said,
"I should never, let people see my emotions," I said,
'No, I told you to not show your emotions to people so easily or they will play you like a fool' he scolded me, 'Zeno remember that you are a king, at times you may feel despair, and helplessness, anger but if you let these emotions show easily then playing you for a fool is just as easy as stealing candy from a child' he said to me,
"C-candy? W-what is that?" I asked him, too afraid that he might get angry because I don't know what this Candy is
'Oh you don't have candy do you, well then let me rephrase that, it would be as easy as stealing a toy from a child' he said,
'Well, my point is that when you are the leader, you need to make sure that people that are under you do not feel unease just because you are feeling it if you a ruler of a country gets afraid of something then what will happen to your people.'
"Yes Lord Nova," I said, I thought he would shout at me, or something worst but he didn't do anything like that,
'Now stop bowing and stop crying' he said,
Crying? I thought to myself as I finally open my eyes and I stopped bowing and everything looked to be blurry, I touched my cheek to see that it was wet from tears, everything looked blurry but after blinking a few times everything became clear.
I looked towards the tree in front of me and saw Lord Nova sitting on one of its roots, his golden eyes looking at me, his two tails swaying from one side to another, somehow the small figure of his looked majestic.
His eyes held responsibility, they looked emotionless and full of emotion at the same time, there was a slight aura that was all around him that made me relax when I am with him,
When was the last time I cried? Maybe in front of my father, and look at me now.
I have only been under Lord Nova for a few days and I cried when I thought that I had disappointed him,
'Alright let's go to your home now or are you planning to stare at me all day?' he asked me,
"Yes, let's go," I said to him with a smile on my face,
He stood up from the root and walked toward me, jumped onto my shoulder, and sat there, I striated walking towards my house when he sat down comfortably.
'So what are your plans for this kingdom for yours?' Lord Nova asked.
"Plans? Right now I just want everyone to settle down" I said,
'But what after that, which direction do you want this kingdom to grow in, Do you want to stay secluded, or do you want to mingle with the other kingdoms around the forest?' as he said this his words from the past came to mind, when he was talking to Virile,
'Where will you go?
'To other kingdoms but do you think that it is a good idea? You might get a place there, but the probability of that happening is too low, you will most likely be turned into slaves, your women used as playthings, and your young would be forced to make more offspring to for more slaves, you would be nothing more than stray dogs that can be killed by a passer-by
He's right where will our people go? They need a place where they can live freely without fearing people that might turn them into slaves for their sick pleasures or labor,
How far does he think to even know what will happen to our species if they were to go out of this forest, truly he is a being that we can't even think of fathoming.
"I want to build a home for my species, a place where they can live freely without any fears, I want them to live happily without any troubles," I said, to him
'A good choice, you are slowly becoming a person who can rule a kingdom' he praised,
'But you need to train soldiers that will patrol around the borders, a force that will maintain order in the city and villages, and a place where people can be judged for the crimes they had committed, you have a lot of work in front of you, so try to find people who you can trust and give them the responsibility for different things because I won't be including myself with these things, I will only help you if you need it other then that you are on your own.' He said,
"But why not?" I asked him, he is the one who had made me king, of this kingdom so why would he not help this country when its needed,
'I am not going to be including myself because I am a beast and I have other things to do. And if I did include myself then people would become dependent on me and won't grow, they will expect me to protect them and if I do that they will just grow dull and weak' he said, there was a lot of thought but behind his words, he had thought of the thing that I didn't even think about, how far exactly is he thinking? I asked myself.
"Yes lord nova I will do my best," I said to him,
'Hmm I am looking forward to the kingdom you will build' he said, to me
I will make a kingdom that you can be proud of my lord I promised myself as we finally reached the part of the forest in I lived, there were no other elves around as i lived quite far from others, we were thinking about building a palace here, but it is a long way in the future, it might take about 4 or 5 years, as I was thinking bout this we finally returned my home, I could hear the voice of my daughter and my wife from the inside as I knocked at the door,
"Knock knock"
Soon the voice of small footsteps came from behind the door and it opened behind it was Ena standing there with a big smile and behind her was my wife Ailyn,
"Daddy, Nova!" Ena screamed in joy as Lord Nova jumped down from my shoulder, and jumped into my daughter's hands,
"Welcome dear, and welcome Lord Nova" Ailyn said, as she hugged me and bowed down to nova,
'Yes think you for your hospitality and congratulation on being Pregnant' Lord Nova said,
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
