Calm came back to attendees, he was arrived, the star of the imperium, when the calm there was returned, a sound rumbled in the zone, the whole tables trembled, of nothing, whole feel more peaceful, a little ligth appear in the tiny palace where the emperor there was, The Emperatriz , the calm and rose of the imperium, she was arrived.
"Thats is so impressive, did you can make something similar?" Ask Murd
"Yeah, i can, maybe in a future your learned that"
"Need at you teaching me that" say murd meanwhile he took up something of his pocket. Her open the strange thing and sack two littles things of that and place in her ears.
"take that shit of" says Cynthia somewhat angry.
Murd dont pay attention at words of cynthia, his lost in her mind.
"I love this. Who would have thought? Wireless headphones in other world, its a miracle that generator have a little bit of energy, thaks school" Murd thought
**************************
--That's so incredible-- whisper Huis, the boys stayed mesmerized whit those abilities of the Emperor and Emperatriz.
the stars of the imperium stayed in the small palace, His presence dominating the whole atmosphere, The emperor no more than 30, have a robust figure and masculine beauty,
The Emperatriz is probably the most beautiful woman in the world. An unreal beauty, His presence together is absolutely.
"Welcome inhabitants of another world, I am the Emperor Caelus Kalestrian, Us the Empire Kalestrian wants to give them a warm welcome, probably feel strange or confused and I want to explain why you arrived in that world".
After a thirty-five minute explanation...
The conference finally ended, much faster than the conferences on Earth.
"Damn, I understand almost everything now," Kida said.
"Oh really? I thought you never understood anything", Huis joked.
"Hey, who do you take me for? I'm not Churn", Kida responded.
"Huh?" Churn's face reflected a certain level of stupidity.
"How can everyone be so calm? We are in the world of God's Ascension, stuck in a loop from hundreds of years ago!" Verju said, visibly shocked.
"And what does it matter?" said a voice with a tone slightly annoying to the ear. It belonged to a rather attractive young man with a suit that matched his eyes perfectly: Murd.
"What else can we do? We are in another world and we are only fifteen years old. "I thought it would be a lot more complicated," Murd continued, offering a half smile. "I want to accept it, but it seems like he has everything under control." Calm down."
"Murd...!" the four boys exclaimed in surprise.
"Where the hell is...?" Churn tried to speak, but Verju interrupted him.
"What the hell are you saying? We don't know where our families are. Peace will never return. Everything we dreamed of in the other world is gone", Verju snapped, visibly upset.
"In fact their families are still alive," Murd replied. "Apparently they are in a city quite far from the capital, but they are fine. It was incredibly fortunate that their entire building complex was transported here together".
"Relax. You are acting very strange; You're the only one I see panicking like this. What are we going to do? What can we do? Nothing. We need to become stronger and smarter. Regretting everything that could have happened won't do us any good.
"Agg, you're trying so hard to sound cool and inspiring," Huis said, mocking him.
"Go to hell", Murd responded.
"So what's new?" Murd said, laughing and leaning back.
"Shut up and explain where the hell you've been, what that suit is, and why you look so..." Kida tried to finish the sentence, but Murd interrupted him.
"So handsome? I know, thank you. Well, I'm now Murd Evander Cadwell, a member of the omnipotent Dawn Clan."
"Sounds like a clan name a ten-year-old would come up with," Huis retorted.
"Now I am the disciple of Cynthia Ferris."
"WHAT?!" they all reacted, stupidly surprised.
"O-of... of that Cynthia?"
"Yes, that Cynthia," Murd said.
"I guess that's normal, I'm a genius," he added with a slightly arrogant tone and a chuckle.
"Damn, you're lucky! I suppose she was the one who told you about our families," Huis said.
"Yes, she told me," Murd replied.
As Murd answered Huis, a purple stone on his robes lit up, and a voice came from it.
"Hey, idiot, come back quickly. I need to introduce you to Cal," Cynthia's voice came through the stone.
"Shit, fine, I'm going now, wait a second," Murd replied.
"Well, guys, Cynth… I mean, my Master is calling me. It was a pleasure chatting, but I have to go. I'm outta here!" Murd said as he ran toward the pillar.
"He's an idiot," Churn said.
"Yes," they agreed, giving the same answer.
Everyone watched Murd walk away, though a pair of green eyes betrayed a hint of envy.
"Damn, I didn't ask him what his stats were," Churn said.
"Seron said that after the conference, we should go to Camp AB," Huis said, yawning.
"Why?" Kida asked.
"Do you think I know?" Huis replied.
"Well, I assumed you did," Kida added.
"I have no idea why he's calling us."
"Ah, okay, I got you," responded Kida.
"The Emperor wants to speak with all the new Knights."
"All of them? Aren't we like five hundred?" asked Churn.
"Yeah, but only the most important and the youngest go," responded Verju.
"Ah, okay, thank you," said Churn with a stupid face.
I didn't understand anything the Emperor said, he thought.
"Well, let's go to the camp," said Kida with energy.
"Yeah," added Huis, but his voice didn't sound very lively.
Ten minutes later, the boys arrived at Camp AB. The Emperor wanted to meet with the new knights.
Everything felt much warmer compared to the previous conference. The fifty people were seated. Churn's seat was in the second row, behind Seron and other high-ranking officers. Huis and Kida's seats were in the third and second rows, respectively, behind Kilren. The last seat, Verju's, was in the center, along with all the knights, but in the first row, probably because he was the youngest.
They all kept their distance, although they were still young and all had great potential; the line between them was already forming.
Thirty minutes had passed since the boys' arrival, and Camp AB was full.
With Churn was a group of young people who had also been trained by Seron or his close associates. There was a rather pretty girl with a somewhat innocent face, Cria Rosevelt. Apparently, she was from somewhere in Russia, although she had some Asian features. Her black hair and brown eyes created a captivating contrast.
Another boy, neither particularly handsome nor ugly, Javier Menéndez, appeared to be from somewhere near Spain. His green eyes, similar to Verju's, were full of curiosity.
Two other girls accompanied them, both with an adorable charm: Lenia Slanter and Ria Nakawa. Lenia had long, blonde hair with light brown highlights, and her hazel eyes made her look very pretty. Ria, for her part, wore glasses that perfectly matched her short, black hair and her dark eyes.
All of these youths appeared to be around the same age as Churn.
Sitting with Huis and Kida were a boy and a girl, both quite good-looking: Kleo Lookman and Aqua Hoolverd. Kleo's short, honey-colored hair looked incredible, but Aqua wasn't far behind with her striking ginger hair.
A resounding boom echoed across the field. The massive gates standing before the crowd slowly opened, revealing several imposing figures. First emerged Caelus Kalestrian, ruler of the Empire; followed by the Empress, Asalina Merinheart; the most powerful mage in the land, Cynthia Ferris; one of the Empire's most formidable fighters, Seron Astrea; Clifford, the Emperor's most loyal retainer; and finally, a young man with striking purple eyes: Murd Cadwell.
What the hell was Murd doing up there? I have no idea.
"What the hell?! Why is Murd with the Emperor?!" Churn exclaimed.
"Murd?" all the young people around Murd exclaimed, confused.
"Why is that idiot up there…?" Kida stammered, her expression one of utter disbelief.
"He… he's such an idiot," Huis muttered, struggling to stifle a laugh.
"Murd?" Verju exclaimed, completely stunned.
"Hello, new knights of the Empire," Caelus said, his voice booming through the crowd. "I suppose you all know who I am. I wanted to organize this meeting because I wished to get to know you all. When I was young, I was one of the knights myself," Caelus said, a touch of nostalgia softening his expression. "Well, you probably know who you are, though there is one new face among you," Caelus added, glancing at Murd.
Murd wore a smile—something unusual for him—similar to that of an archbishop with many wives. He exuded an unmistakable arrogance. However, in stark contrast to his smile, his eyes seemed completely dazed and blurred.
Shit, shit, shit... How the hell did I end up here? Murd thought, gripped by panic.
Fifty minutes earlier...
Murd arrived at the pillar looking somewhat agitated. Cynthia was already there, leaning against a wall and waiting for him.
Is she trying to look cool? Murd thought as he caught sight of her.
"Damn, finally. You have no idea how long I've been waiting," Cynthia said, stretching her arms.
"I came as fast as I could," Murd replied.
Cynthia brushed off his words and cut straight to the point. "I don't care. Take my hand."
"Again? Where are we going now?"
"I have a friend who wants to meet you," Cynthia said, offering her hand.
"Is he... who I think he is?" Murd looked a little frightened, but he took her hand anyway.
Cynthia laughed. "Maybe."
With a sudden shift, Cynthia and Murd arrived in a beautiful room. The space featured a combination of black and white that created an incredible, striking contrast. Murd was completely fascinated by his surroundings.
"Do you like what you see?" a voice rumbled through the room.
Snapped out of his awe, Murd spun around to see where the voice was coming from.
The Emperor, Caelus Kalestrian, was sitting right in front of him.
"Hi. You're Murd, right?" the Emperor spoke.
"Ehhhh..." Murd couldn't find his words.
"Yeah, that's him," Cynthia interjected. "Please calm down, Murd."
In reality, Murd had never felt so overwhelmed by someone's prescence. Even though he had met people whit a importan carge before, the Emperor's aura was on a completely different level. It wasn't just about his title; Caelus Kalestrian possessed an incredible, heavy presence that made Murd feel genuinely terrified.
Cynthia pointed at Murd and began to focus her mana. Energy surged from every cell in her body; her control and precision were on a whole new level. With that mana, she formed a spell—if it could be called that—allowing the energy to settle in Murd's hand to offer him some assistance in withstanding the Emperor's overwhelming presence.
The mana resonated with his body, and Murd absorbed it. Instantly, the weight of the Emperor's presence lessened considerably.
The Emperor watched the entire process and opened his mouth. "Did he do what I think he did?"
"Yes, he did," Cynthia replied gently. "Anyway, when are you going to learn to control your presence, Cal?"
Caelus sighed. "Ugh, just when things were getting interesting."
