LAZARUS REGULUS
Chapters 16. The past of Marquis Edgar and the Two Beautiful Women.
The resurrection ceremony is over. Lazarus and the others said goodbye to everyone and the priests.
"Urs, I have a little business. Tomorrow morning you must go to the residence of Allan or the east gate that is in Lion Castle City, my Granddaughter Eleanor and my sister Charlotte will be waiting for you there."
"Thank you for everything, Mr. Edgar." Lazarus smiled, bowing slightly.
After saying goodbye, Marquis Edgar then entered the horse carriage, which was pulled by the War Beast Wind Horse.
"Urs, you're very lucky The Storm Swordsman, treat you well." Alyssa says.
Marquis Edgar's nickname was the Storm Swordsman, he had a lightning element mana, besides that he was a Marquis guarding the eastern border of the Lion Heart Empire.
The Lion Heart Empire, had four dukes and seven Marquis and were all powerful Knights and Magicians. Four of them are Duke Regulus ruler of the North, Duke Leandro ruler of the East, Duke Leontios ruler of the West, and Duke Aslan ruler of the South.
"Alyssa, do you know who Marquis Edgar's younger sister is named Charlotte? It's like I've heard it." Lazarus asked.
Fufufu
"Urs, what do you mean Golden Lion Squad Leader Charlotte Leandro?" Alyssa answered as she chuckled.
"What! The leandro? Wasn't he Marquis Edgar Allan's younger brother? What is the relationship of the Allan Nobles Family and the Leandro Nobles Family?" Lazarus is shocked to learn that Marquis Edgar's younger brother is part of the Leandro family.
"Urs, Marquis Edgar was the third son of Duke Adrian Leandro and Asteria Allan, the first daughter of the Royal Family of Marquis Allan." Amarilis says.
"Why did Marquis Edgar not attend the inheritance ceremony of the Eastern throne? And become Duke Leandro's heir?" Lazarus asked.
According to Lazarus, Marquis Edgar was a person worthy of being an Eastern Duke. Of the other heirs to the throne of Duke Leandro, they were all just a bunch of tyrants who did not care about his people.
"Duke Adrian Leandro, has three sons and one daughter from two wives. At first Duke Adrian wanted to give up the position to Edgar, but at that time Marquis Abercio Allan's grandfather Edgar, died of old age, resulting in a struggle for the throne between the inheritance of Marquis Allan, the heir of Marquis Allan, The Allan Nobles family was almost destroyed at that moment. Edgar eventually withdrew from the inheritance ceremony and left to resolve the conflict in Allan's territory." Iris says.
According to the laws of the Lion Heart Empire, other Nobles should not interfere in the affairs of other Nobles, including the civil war. Marquis Edgar later discarded the surname Leandro and changed his name to the surname Allan, to resolve the Allan territorial conflict.
"Urs, behind Edgar's handsome and delicate face, he had already killed all his uncles and thousands of people on the battlefield." Alyssa says.
"I understand! But, Marquis Edgar, must have had a reason to do so. If he doesn't do it all and the war continues, there will be more people who are victims and suffer."
"I agree with you Urs." Iris smiled.
Iris remembers her past. He, Altair and Lazarus overthrew the rule of his uncle Emperor Halbert the Lion Heart. The cruel emperor and tyrant who would be remembered throughout the history of the Lion Heart Empire.
...****************...
Lazarus and everyone went to the square of the city of Lion Castle, they wanted to attend the Lazarus Regulus Festival which was held once every year, in honor of Lazarus who had killed Melanthios.
Saint Iris, Duke Alastair Regulus, Miss Amarillis.
Knowing the arrival of Saint Iris and the Regulus Noble Family, everyone bowed respectfully.
Iris and the others were like a celebrity in the Lion Heart Empire. All the people respect them very much.
The Nobles of Regulus were different from the other Nobles, they were respected because they were always concerned with their people, rather than themselves. They rule not with fear but rule with compassion. Although, their area was the poorest area compared to the other Duke regions.
"Urs, we'll catch up with you after some business." Alastair said as he glanced at Madame Cassandra with a gentle look.
Lazarus learns that Alastair wants to date Cassandra, as they are always busy taking care of Regulus' territory. The two of them, did not have time for a date.
"Urs, I want to go somewhere, we'll meet at dinner." Amaryllis smiled and left Lazarus.
Lazarus is now together, Blossom, Alyssa and Iris. They became the center of attention, in the square of Lion Castle City especially Iris.
"Alright, it just so happens that I've brought clothes and disguise artifacts to disguise." Iris smiled.
Lazarus, and the others, went to the end of a small alley. Because, Alyssa and Iris wanted to change clothes and wear disguised Artifacts.
"Urs, you must be on guard here, remember don't peek at us!"
"All right."
Lazarus waited for Alyssa and Iris while playing with Blossom and Asterion.
"Grandfather, have you ever seen a dragon?" Blossom asked.
"Grandfather, have seen many Dragons in the past." Lazarus answered.
"Is the Black Dragon Melanthios that Grandpa Lazarus is fighting against strong?"
"Mythical Beast Black Dragon Melanthios is very powerful, she is a Crossbreed Beast that has the power to destroy a kingdom."
"Blossom wants to be strong like Lazarus' father and grandfather." Blossom smile.
"Blossom will definitely be a strong girl in the future." Lazarus said as he stroked Blossom's hair.
'Master, will I be stronger than mother?'
'Ignis, you and Asterion will be stronger than your mother.'
Ignis knew his mother had been killed against Lazarus. However, Ignis felt no grudge against Lazarus who had killed his mother, as Lazarus killed his mother in a fair fight. In the Beast world there were no rules, they all only used the law of the jungle where strength was everything.
A moment later, Alyssa and Iris had already changed into clothes.
"Urs, do I look pretty?"
Alyssa approached Urs in a beautiful green dress, she combed her blonde hair back revealing her dazzling golden irises. Elf long ears and Opal shaped face. Alyssa looks like a Goddess she can now rival the beauty of Iris.
'Elf is the most beautiful race.' Think Lazarus.
"Alyssa, are you going to the casino? I haven't been to a casino in a long time." Iris smiled subtly.
Iris now wears thick glasses and casual clothing. She changed her hair color to blonde but still could not hide her elegance.
"Saint Iris's? Are you The Black Crow the acute gambler who always loses in betting?" Lazarus asked.
According to her memory Iris had another identity. In addition to being a Saint, he was an acute gambler who always lost in gambling and a street fighter with light elements.
People nicknamed him the Black Crow because out of 1000 bets, at most he only won 5 bets.
"No!! My Luck stats are the same as every 5/10 person. Lazarus has a Luck 3/10 statistic. Maybe I'm affected by Luck Lazarus and I always lose!" Iris denied.
The average population on Planet Antares has a Luck of 5/10.
"Urs, do you want to let a beautiful Lady, walk alone?" Alyssa smiled as she extended her hand.
Lazarus then took Alyssa's hand.
"Thank you." Alyssa smiled.
They then went to the Black Rose Casino to bet. Before going to Casino Lazarus put Asterion into the Draupnir Ring.
