If there was one thing that Hamut was going to admit about this girl, it was that she definitely always was thinking about the next step. Even as she would agree to speak to him — not like she had any choice — she was gripping her sword. Truly, Jackson had picked a fine woman. [b]“Listen Emilia, contrary to what you might believe, I am not your enemy. You see, I detested my son — Vincent’s and Jackson, I mean Jaakuna’s father — Simon. He was an arrogant fool who deserved the fate he was dealt. I weep for my country’s future at the moment, cause you see it’s ran by another arrogant fool, Jackson’s brother Vincent. He’s just like my son. That’s why, coming to you is what I must do. I know you’re running away from your fiance, Grant Marshall of House Roselia and you’re frolicking with my grandson, Jackson. I support you in that endeavor and I do hope you consider me as an ally. I actually want you and your friends to be successful. It would mean a great deal to me to see you and my grandson marry and end wars between Archadia and Rozarria, but in order for you two to do that, you must prove yourselves to everyone else. That is why I come to you today.”[/b] He said, clearing his throat. [b]“I offer you this advice: My grandson is fragile underneath all of that tough guy exterior, and even though he and I don’t see eye-to-eye, I love my grandson dearly. Treat him with love and kindness and he will show you a whole new world, cause you see Jackson’s true strength lies within the love he feels for that certain special someone.“[/b] He would say as he would walk pass Emiri. Walking past her, he stops. [b]“I thought you should know two things. First off, your so-called fiancé is currently held prisoner by Vincent. And second, my other grandson, Isaiah — or you might know him as the Forth Judge Magister of the Imperial Court, Ixion — is currently on his way to Mount Bur-Omsace. I do apologize for the complications between us. I do bid you farewell, Emilia Rianna Inabi. It was a pleasure to meet the woman who has my Grandson Jackson’s heart.” [/b]He said departing and clearing the fire that blocked Emiri beforehand. Hamut would disappear into flames and darkness. ----- Levi was amused that the prince actually thought that she wanted anything specific in return. [b]“Please prince, don’t think I wish to have anything dire. I merely wish to see my investments do well. I only ask that a favor be granted to me, of any scale at any given moment I request it. Give me this, Prince Grant, and I will secure you the throne of Rozarria personally Do we have a deal?” [/b]She said standing up, walking over to Grant and reaching out her right hand. ----- Ixion was pretty happy to see his dear cousin again, but perhaps under the circumstances, it wasn’t under good terms. Of course, him brutally slaying seven Acolytes wasn’t looking good for him either. Ixion just was following orders. He knew that much. It wasn’t like he had any problem, but Ixion definitely had better things to do. Even now, he wished it didn’t have to resort to this. [b]“How dare I? I dare cause I can.”[/b] He said laughing. While he was laughing, Wesley would look to Ixion. [b]“Judge Magister Isaiah Ixion Darcone, I hereby place you under arrest for the murder of King Jonathan Rufus Dalamasca.”[/b] Wesley said drawing his Platinum Sword and pointing it at Ixion. Ixion smiled. [b]“Oh how cute. You actually think you can beat me.” [/b]He laughed. Wesley wouldn’t let him escape this time. He was stronger than before and he had a cool head, as did Jaakuna. This time around, Jaakuna would let Wesley lead and he would follow. Wesley would go after Ixion at full charge. His sword raised up, radiating with a white, glimmering light. With a single swing, Holyaga spot out in the form of a wave of pure white light. Ixion would raise his sword, but it didn’t block all of it. Ixion got hit by some of it and was shot back a bit. Jaakuna would go in with his Blood Sword and it tracing with Firaga, he would also swing it as he jumped over Wesley and out shot fire. Ixion, in response, would hold out his hand, and out shot Thundaja and the two forces collided, exploding due to the two forces being both one in the same and completely different. All three men were sent flying in opposite directions. Jaakuna and Wesley were shot one way(towards the Kiltias and Nadeline) and Ixion was shot back more the way he came. Jaakuna and Wesley landed on their feet, but they still felt the blunt force of the explosion of red, orange, gold, and white. [b]“Damn, he’s still stronger than all of us.”[/b] Jaakuna said.
