Season 2 - Chapter 48: Bowing to the Emperor and a Forgotten History
After Anos and Sakuna shook the academy, rumors of this force reached the capital. In the afternoon of the same day, a large army of the emperor's guard arrived at Acadia. All the students and teachers lined up in the courtyard in fear.
Emperor Magnus, known as a fierce and ruthless man, got out of his golden chariot. He had come to punish the "rustics" who had broken the prestige of the Academy.
Unexpected prostration
Emperor Magnus approached the disciples angrily. The head of the academy pointed at Anos and Akuto: "Sir, there it is! Those two boys ruined everything!"
Magnus stopped. She flushed when she looked into Anos's eyes. He felt the same energy that had enslaved the entire world 9,000 years before. At that moment, an old memory awakened in his mind; Back when he was just a small soldier in the Vault's Army of Shadows.
In front of thousands of shocked students and teachers, Emperor Magnus crowned himself and knelt down, prostrating himself on the ground at Anos' feet.
General shock
The whole academy was silent, only the sound of the wind.
Academy Head: "G... sir? What are you doing? These are just two farmer's boys!"
Emperor Magnus: (in a shaky voice) "Shut up, you fools! You don't know who you're standing in front of! This is the blood of the one who, when he was angry, made the stars go out in the sky! This is the blood of the monster king!"
Sakuna and the comedy of Akuto
Akuto, still a little under the influence of Sakuna, looked at the emperor and then at the apple in his hand.
Akuto: "Anos... who is this man? Why is he about to kiss the floor? Did he lose the chicken at my father's too?"
Sakuna: (started laughing inside her mind) "Akuto, this is one of those dogs that used to eat your father's leftovers. Look how he's still afraid of the smell of your father's blood!"
The appearance of shadows
Suddenly, a black mist formed next to Anos. Volt and Sai appeared silent. Volt had his peasant hat on, but his white eyes gleamed.
When Magnus saw Volt, he bent down even more: "My lord... my king... I'm sorry we didn't know your sons were here.
Volt said coldly, "Magnus... stand up. I'm not here for kingship. I'm here to find out who called my sons 'chickens'?"
All the students who had previously made fun of Anos and Akuto turned plastered in fear. Some of them were forgiven in their places.
It's a new decision
Volt turned to the president of the academy: "The rules are changing today. My sons will stay here, but anyone who says an inappropriate word to my family... Magnus, what do you think I should do to them?"
"Your Majesty," Emperor Magnus said in horror, "at a mere gesture from you, I will erase all their descendants from history."
Anos put his hand on his father's shoulder: "Father, there is no need. We are here to study, not to destroy the empire. Just let me teach them another lesson.
