Castle of Black Iron

With a sound “tsuang”, Gitta drew his longsword out of his sheath as he pushed open the door forcefully and entered the door. He pointed at that man’s back as he said, “I’ve not imagined that the rebels’ accomplice could slide into the inner castle of Heavensblue Castle. Turn around slowly. Don’t move. Don’t touch any object in the study. Otherwise, my longsword will not forgive you. How did you come in here? Whether have you dug a secret tunnel beneath the Heavensblue Castle or have any accomplice here? As long as you tell me, I promise to keep you alive…”

That man slowly turned around with a smile as he said, “Gitta, long time no see…”

“Peter…no…His Majesty!” The moment Gitta saw that man’s face, he immediately widely opened his eyes as he almost dropped his longsword…

Of course, it was Zhang Tie who appeared in the office of Ms. Olina in Heavensblue Castle.

After staying in Castle of Black Iron for a few days, Zhang Tie ate up his fruits; got hang of the powerful kinetic energy strike as a divine dominator and sowed his seeds. After that, he returned to Arkray Island in Ewentra Archipelago and found the Heavensblue Castle before incarnating in Peter Hamplester once again.

How could a team of female barbarian fighters and a female barbarian shaman catch sight of Zhang Tie?

Zhang Tie threw a glance at Gitta with a smile before saying, “You’ve grown much stronger and have a greater battle strength after these years…”

After realizing that His Majesty had come back, Gitta hurriedly put away his sword as he showed his respect by kneeling down on the carpet by one knee and said, “Welcome back, His Majesty!”

After confirming that it was Zhang Tie, Gitta didn’t care why Zhang Tie entered here; because Gitta thought this man who ruled the entire Sacred Iceland Kingdom was almighty.

Zhang Tie let out a sigh. At the sight of Gitta’s demeanor, Zhang Tie knew that they couldn’t joke and chat freely like before. He might not care about maintaining the usual relaxed atmosphere between them; however, Gitta had a deep-rooted sense of hierarchy in his mind.

“Hmm, get up!”

Not until Gitta heard Zhang Tie’s command did he get up in a restrained way once again. Gitta had met Zhang Tie when he came here last time. Last time, Zhang Tie had already promoted to a knight. However, this time, Gitta felt that Zhang Tie’s qi was much greater than before. Therefore, Gitta was more awe-struck by him.

“Where’s Olina? Aww, what do you mean by rebels? Did anyone stage an armed rebellion in Ewentra Archipelago these days?” Zhang Tie asked calmly. As he could even sweep over the entire expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire by one hammer; Zhang Tie didn’t mind that tiny chaos in Ewentra Archipelago at all.

“Ms. Olina is in the conference hall of the parliament. Those rebels refer to Connar the deputy president of Ewentra Autonomous Parliament and his henchmen…” Gitta described what happened in Arkray Island to Zhang Tie honestly.

Zhang Tie was not shocked by that too much. When the expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire from the Western Continent was coming, those people who were less determined and didn’t succumb to the existing order would seize this chance to seek for private gains. In their eyes, Sacred Iceland Kingdom could never have any chance to defeat Sacred Light Empire. They had already regarded the problem facing the Sacred Iceland Kingdom and the disaster facing Ancient God Church as a good opportunity for the rejuvenation of their clans. No wonder Maxim and the other red gloves would wipe them out.

If Gitta didn’t mention it, Zhang Tie almost forgot about Connar. Zhang Tie only remembered that he had met Connar when he came to Ice and Snow Wilderness for the first time after promoting to a knight. Previously, Renard Clan might have some influence on Ewentra Archipelago; however, this clan was nothing but sh*t in Zhang Tie’s eyes now. He was not even interested in the process of how this clan was exterminated. ‘Since the third holy war begun, tens of hundreds of human countries and clans had been exterminated. Even Waii Subcontinent had become a barren land. As a two-faced trivial clan, they had no reason to laugh until the end. Did they really treat me as a yes-man who won’t kill any people?’

“I will stay here. Go notice Olina and tell her I’m back!”

“Bishop Maxim and Hags the clan head of sea bear tribe are in the island. Do I need to notice them too?” Gitta asked carefully.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Tie replied, “Yup, let them come to see me in Heavensblue Castle the next morning!”

“Yes, sir!”

After receiving Zhang Tie’s command, Gitta left the room as he closed the door from outside, leaving Zhang Tie alone in the office of Ms. Olina. Hearing Gitta’s rapid footsteps, Zhang Tie revealed a smile.

Zhang Tie took up a photo frame from the desk before stroking the surface of the photo frame gently. In the photo, Olina was crouching on the ground with a big, loving smile. A 3-year old little, naked boy was holding a dandelion as he approached his tiny face to Olina and wanted to kiss her. The background of this photo was a grape garden inside Seablue Castle. The sun had just risen; the two people’s faces were covered with tender golden sunlight. Additionally, there was a drop of crystal dew on one leaf of the dandelion in the hand of the little boy…

That little boy looked very similar to Olina. Although being young, his tiny face was strongly defined. However, his black hair, pupils and his qi field told Zhang Tie that this was his baby.

Olina got pregnant in the 899th year of Black Iron Calendar and delivered his baby the next year. As of now, this baby should have been 4 years old.

Looking at the photo, Zhang Tie’s tender eyes gradually turned firm and profound…

…

After Gitta left the room, Zhang Tie felt that many people across Heavensblue Castle became busy. Gitta might have already told them that Tsar had already arrived at Heavensblue Castle. After hearing this news, of course, everyone would feel intense across Heavensblue Castle.

Only after half an hour, as the gate of Heavensblue Castle was opened, a fleet had entered Heavensblue Castle. Ms. Olina finally came back. Gitta might have met the fleet on the way.

Even though Olina tried her best to be reassured, Zhang Tie could still sense the faint anxiety and impulsion from her crispy footsteps in the staircases and aisle.

The urgent footsteps didn’t slow down with her heavy pants until she arrived outside her office.

After Ms. Olina came to the door of his office, the door opened itself. Closely after that, Zhang Tie and Olina saw each other.

Zhang Tie walked to the door and put his arms around her waist tenderly. At the same time, he kissed Olina passionately and made her tilt backward. As a result, Olina had to put her arms around Zhang Tie’s neck.

This kiss lasted 5 minutes. After separating from each other, Zhang Tie helped her stand steadily. After that, they just stood close to each other face to face.

“Thank you…”

“I thought you wouldn’t come back!” Ms. Olina said after panting for a short while with a red face.

“My woman and kid is here, how could I not come back?” Zhang Tie replied with a smile.

“You’d better leave with our kid!” Ms. Olina suddenly said.

After hearing Olina’s words, Zhang Tie became stunned as he asked, “Leave? Why?”

“The expeditionary army of Sacred Light Empire is very powerful. They have 2 throne pastors and 5 chief pastors. This strike is definitely different than that last time. You cannot defeat them. As you’ve killed one of their chief pastors. If you stayed here, they would kill you for sure. As long as you and our kid could survive. I would have no regret! I cannot leave. Otherwise, those who stay here would lose their morale. By then, your undertaking and the belief of the Ancient God Church would collapse. As long as you could survive, you would have a chance to avenge them. Didn’t you tell me that you were going to the Eastern Continent? You could take your kid to the Eastern Continent.” Ms. Olina said firmly with a decisive and bright eyelight.

Tender women would be more decisive and dauntless than men sometimes.

‘Hasn’t the news about the expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire arrived here? It’s possible. It’s a distance of over 6,000 miles. Ewentra Archipelago might not have received the precise intelligence. After all, I attacked them too fast and had severely damaged them only in a few minutes. Unless they witnessed it, very few people could believe it. Additionally, I didn’t contact Pontiff Sarlin these days. Ice and Snow Wilderness must not have confirmed the intelligence about the expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire either.’

After thinking it through, Zhang Tie was deeply moved by Olina’s words. Cupping his face, he watched her seriously as he said, “Trust me, nobody could hurt me, you and our baby. Nobody could destroy what I left here. Neither demons nor the Sacred Light Empire could do harm to us. The expeditionary fleet of Sacred Light Empire wouldn’t arrive at the Ewentra Archipelago waters anymore. Perhaps, Sacred Light Empire would assign people here to sue for peace in a few days.”

“Ahh, impossible!” Ms. Olina was shocked too much. If it was not told by Zhang Tie, she must have thought that someone was raving.

“Why not possible?”

“They have assigned 7 knights. Such a battle strength could even defeat the entire Waii Subcontinent!”

Zhang Tie sneered, “7 knights are nothing but sh*t. Do you know how many knights died in a large-scale battle between humans and demons in the Earth-elements Realm?”

“What happened?”

Zhang Tie didn’t reply. He just closed the door by foot. Closely after that, he cradled Ms. Olina and put her on the desk as he said, “It’s a nice environment here. I will tell you about the details after a while…”
