Chapter 507 - A Choice To Be Made
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
While Ren was having his conversation with the original incarnation, Valdel and Lisa were in a high tension situation. The two were currently in an old village that had no one in it. They were now staring face to face with weapons at hand.
Going back a few days ago before this incident occurred.
...
After Lisa had that conversation with Valdel about the old world, memories that she had forgotten were returning. Her reality was becoming the dream and her nightmares her reality. Unable to process everything that was going on in her mind, Lisa fled.
The following day the kingdom that had been peaceful for years suddenly grew chaotic as their queen suddenly disappeared. Rex had rushed to his father's side accompanied by numerous knights. Valdel sighed as he knew this whole thing was his fault.
After that incident, Valdel had some time to think about various things. Ever since he came into this dream world something had been continuously affecting his mind. Still, he could not use that as an excuse for what he had done.
'Tsk, how shameful of someone with my experience to act like that. Of course, Lisa would be disappointed. Still, the way she talked at the end and the look she gave me as she fled...'
Valdel had some thoughts as to what was happening to Lisa, but before he could do anything he needed to find her first. Valdel sighed as he patted Rex's head.
"Everything is going to be alright, I'm going to bring your mother back."
"My King please allow us to accompany you." The knights all knelt as their commander spoke. Valdel looked at them for a second. Even in this world, the knights weren't all that strong as he felt their mana fluctuations. It was obvious to him that they wouldn't be able to keep up with him. So Valdel shook his head as he responded.
"I want you to stay here and protect the kingdom. At this moment when both Lisa and I aren't around there might be some people wanting to do something stupid. Besides, it's the job of the husband to bring back his lost wife."
When the knights heard Valdel's response they could not help themselves as they lifted their heads to look at their king. For the past months, their king was not like the king they knew. He had lost that aura of confidence he had, that made one feel everything will be alright for as long as he stood, it was a similar aura to the legendary warrior Ren.
Yet here today standing before them was the king they swore their eternal loyalty to. The knights held the tears in as they responded with loud voices.
"As you will our king!" Hearing their response Valdel nodded his head and went to his personal armory.
...
Upon entering the room filled with various armors and weapons, a wave of nostalgia was filling him. These armor and weapons hold different stories to the glory of Valdel's past battles. Even though he wasn't the Valdel that experienced all of that, he still had the memories of it and felt the bond he had with each of these weapons.
'I see, though I never gained Zwei and Nika in this world, I still had these guys.' Valdel touched the armor and weapons fondly and started taking some of them. Valdel wore the armor that he had on, the last time he had battled Ren in this world. He also took the Bastard Sword from that time as well.
The armor was pretty light and felt more like leather armor than a full plated one. The sword was also pretty good nothing compared to Zwei but still better than most. Once he was done equipping himself, Valdel was about to set off.
As he stepped outside the castle one of the knights approached him with a warhorse. Valdel was familiar with that warhorse as it was the one he has been using for a few years now. Valdel raised his hand and signaled the knight to stop.
"I won't be needing her for today. I'll be going on foot." Valdel then jumped into the sky, before the knight could say anything. Seeing his king leaving in such a way, the knight saluted him.
...
It took Valdel a few days to catch up to Lisa, as he followed the path he, Lisa, Ren, and Lara took during their grand adventure in this world. Every village he passed, every town, knew who he was, and they knew him not as a king, but as the boy who journeyed with his friends.
Every time Valdel arrived in a village the people would say that he just missed Lisa. During his stay in those villages, the people would reminisce with him about how he and his friends saved their village, from monsters, from natural disasters, from the plague, and other such stories.
'Is she trying to relive her memories?'
After a few more days of missing each other, Valdel finally arrived in a familiar place that was the same as the memory he had in the real world. This was the path to their old village. Valdel could already feel Lisa's mana, she was waiting for him at the entrance of their old village.
A ton of memories flooded him the ones from the real world and the ones from this dream world. As he came closer he saw Lisa wearing her battle armor holding her two short swords. She turned around and spoke.
"Do you remember Valdel? This is where it all started. This is where you, Lara, and Ren left me to have your grand adventure. This is also the place where I lost and died."
"I'm sorry," that was the only thing Valdel could say at this moment. Lisa smiled gently at him and shook her head.
"There's nothing to be sorry about... Seeing that you're wearing that armor and holding that sword, it seems that you've once again become the Valdel I love. So shall we do this in the way Ren taught us?"
"I won't be holding back Lisa." Valdel got into his stance and raised his sword.
"That's what I wanted all along." Lisa also took a fighting stance with her two short swords. Without any more words to be said the two charged at each other.
