ASIOF : Breath of Magic (I created a magic empire and killed dragons)

A person was standing in front of the throne room waiting to be invited inside so he could talk with the new king. He came here to talk about the recent order he got from the king he hadn't even seen. He has personally selected 100 best of his men to travel to the going on the expedition but he isn't sure about this sudden mission.

Reiner = "Come inside"

Reiner, after opening the door a little, said while looking at Gregory in an indifferent tone. Gregory went inside the throne room completely ignoring Reiner, it was like he was doing it intentionally.

Gregory walked inside the throne toward the golden throne. On the golden throne was a man wearing a gold-colored outfit with red designs all over it. He had an aura of superiority, the pupils of his eyes were directed toward Gregory like a lion staring at its prey, but a tiger knows no fear. Gregory stopped midway and kneeled in front of Carrion, this man in front of him might not have earned his respect right now but no matter where he was, he would always kneel in front of the golden kingdom's insignia. It was the place where he was born, the place that built him into the man he is today, countless numbers of people have wholeheartedly sacrificed their lives to this insignia, this kingdom, and the people living in it,

Gregory = *Not respecting that is an insult to my entire being*

Carrion was confused, this Gregory person entered the throne room and walked toward him while ignoring him and now he was staring at something behind.

Carrion = *What is he even staring at?*

Carrion turned toward the direction, Gregory was staring at, and he saw a large banner of insignia covering the whole back wall of the massive hall. The insignia was simple but had a certain vibe to it. The outer layer was gold and, in the middle, there were 2 symbols facing each other inside a thin red layer of circle. On the right-hand side was a red lion and on the left-hand side was a red symbol that looked like a cross with pointy edges.

Carrion himself was surprised how could he have missed something like that. He was too interested in the sword.

Carrion = "You are Gregory, am I Gregory"

Gregory = "Yes, my lord, I am"

Gregory said after rearranging his focus on Carrion.

Carrion = "What do you want to talk about, I think I have already made myself clear"

While the conversation was going Reiner came and stood near Carrion like a bodyguard while glaring at Gregory.

Gregory = "My lord, I think this expedition is short-sighted."

Reiner = "Short-sighted, how dare you shame the king like that, my lord he should be hanged"

Reiner said while demandingly looking at Carrion. Even toddlers could see that something was happening between the two, but Carrion was not interested in asking. He looked at Gregory and spoke.

Gregory = "It is normal for subjects to question their ruler's orders sometimes. Tell me what troubles you"

Carrion knew it was wise to gain Gregory's trust and respect because Cleary Reiner and Gregory had some fright, and if one of them were to betray him one day, he could use the other to gain an advantage.

Gregory was a little bit impressed, he didn't expect that

Gregory = "My lord, first, our men have no experience traveling these lands and we are talking about mountains here. We can't go on foot, we should have a vehicle that can travel in the air, a Windbreaker precisely, at any level is okay. Second, the current guards are all recruits they are nothing but cannon fodder in a real battle."

Carrion suddenly twitched at the word of recruits.

Carrion = *System wasn't the soldiers I bought recruits as well that was their name right*

System = *Yes, tier 1 soldiers and archers are named recruits*

Carrion = "Don't worry, I have already thought of everything you just take care of the people, and I will bring a windbreaker for us to travel, and we are only going for surveillance to see good spots for make a camp for the time being. But if we get the chance to mine gold, we will do it on the first trip"

After looking at Carrion for a bit, Gregory nodded and he had a better image of the new king in his mind, but he was still unsure, he wanted proof.

Gregory = "Then Your Majesty, I will be waiting for you in the guard post to discuss the plan"

Carrion = "I will come at evening"

Gregory = "Evening my lord?"

Carrion = "I want to take a bath, and I hope nobody will disturb me while I am enjoying it."

Carrion stared into Gregory's eyes and said directly. Gregory nodded at Carrion and returned to his walk. The Reiner, who was silent all this time came to Carrion's view and spoke.

Reiner = "Your majesty, Gregory isn't a good guy, he will sacrifice you to save his friends if push comes to shove. You shouldn't rely too much on him."

Carrion got suspicious of Gregory as he listened to his little complaints. After listening to his ramblings, he warned.

Carrion = "I don't need your permission to trust anyone, I will judge a person based on my experience so don't cross the line."

Reiner immediately knew that he let his thoughts get the best of him. He immediately let

Reiner = "I'm sorry my lord I won't do anything like that I promise"

Carrion = "Now I have to go, send me maids to direct me to the bathhouse and help me"

Reiner = "I will do that, my lord"

After saying that carrion left the throne while eyeing the sword. It seems like some connection between them makes him feel a bond with the sword.

Carrion = *Probably because of the system, but if I have to level up to 50 to master it then this thing is top-notch. I should ask the system about the sword's abilities and other things I take a bath. I hope there won't be people bothering me there as well*

Carrion walked in the hallway toward his room and there was only one thing that he wanted. it was to get the dispute between him and his mother settled before going to the mountains. Carrion tried to open the door to his mother's room, but the door was opened from the other side.

Serenya was trying to go to the garden with Charlotte so she could discuss the problem she had with Carrion. Even if she wanted to not talk with him as punishment for what happened, she wasn't confident doing that for much longer. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Carrion, suddenly the memories of last night started to flash in her mind making her look away, feeling guilty and run-away ignoring Carrion's words.

Carrion = "Mom…."

Carrion was saddened by her action not because of her not willing to even look at his face, but just because if he didn't get the fight settled before tonight, he might not be able to apologize again in the future.

While Carrion was looking depressed Charlotte cam out of the room in a disciplined manner.

Charlotte = "Don't worry my lord, I talked with her before she was willing to settle things down. Don't worry my lord, I will convince her"

After saying that, she bowed and without even hearing his answer she left in the direction Serenya went smiling from the corners of her mouth.

Carrion = * what the, why would she help me after the speech I gave her, I would be thankful if she did it though, but I should find a way as well in case she fails. No matter what, I have to be with her every time, and I can't get separated from her either. No matter what*

After noticing the open-door carrion entered the room. The room was the same as his room, there was only a bed, table, cloth rack, and a huge empty space. As Carrion was surveying the room he saw something that caught his eye lying on the bed.

Carrion = "Is that her panty"
