Fire Mage (Web Novel)

Meanwhile, Rhea gestured others to calm down and continued.

"Next is about choosing a new household name. Daisy, do you have anything in mind?"

Upon hearing those words, Daisy nodded her head and answered.

"I want to keep "Embershadow" as my household name, Your Majesty."

"Embershadow?" Rhea raised her brows and nodded her head.

"Be it then."

Saying so, she sat on the Iron Throne and placed her hands on the arms.

Meanwhile, Daisy bowed her head once again and then returned to her seat.

On the other hand, Rhea continued her work as the Queen of Iron Kingdom for the next few minutes, listened to many nobles' requests, and gave them solutions.

Soon, she dismissed everyone and then stepped down from the dais.

Then, she turned her gaze towards Titus, moved towards him, and smiled wryly.

"Are you happy now?" She asked.

Her voice contains a trace of sorrow and loneliness.

It was as if the Destiny had played a terrible joke on them.

Rhea, Jessie, Noel, and Titus went to Chester City for a better future.

But they became the disciples of a mysterious Mage and started walking on the path of Mystics.

Everything was okay until Titus bumped into the woman who was standing next to him.

Although she hadn't done anything terrible, Titus somehow lost his motivation after he fell in love with her and started living an ordinary life.

He was the one who asked Rhea to let his lover become the Royal Mage and give her the title of 'Baroness.'

He looked more like an old man who seemed to have grown tired of wars and conflicts!

'He did change a lot.' A deep sigh leaked out of Rhea's mouth.

Meanwhile, Titus smiled lightly and nodded his head.

"This is perfect. Also, tell my sister that we are going to Eclipse Land to take a look. We'll come back in a week or two."

Upon hearing his words, Rhea frowned for a bit and soon widened her eyes.

"Two weeks? What are you going to do there in that rural town for two weeks? Wait! Are you two planning to settle there?" She asked.

It was not difficult for her to realize Titus's true goal.

"Yes. But we will move out only after our marriage, though." He said with a forced smile.

On the other hand, Rhea's face turned solemn.

She suddenly took a step forward, raised both her hands, gripped his shoulders, and asked in a loud voice.

"Are you okay with this, Titus? Are you leaving us? What about the promise you made when I asked you about your goal? You told me that you would grow stronger and protect us, right?"

Upon hearing her words, a complicated smile appeared on Titus's face.

"Don't be a naïve kid, Rhea. Can't you see the truth? You guys don't need my protection at all. Instead, I'm the one who needs your protection. I tried my best, but this is the limit of my growth. If I stay in Royal City, I'll feel guilty for not meeting our Teacher's expectations." Titus said with a solemn tone.

Meanwhile, Rhea went silent for a moment and soon sighed.

"I'll take care of the rest then. But Daisy is a Royal Court Mage, Titus. She has to come to Royal Palace once a month and attend the Royal Meeting. Otherwise, I'll revoke her mage title and might even put sanctions on your territory."

Without waiting for Titus's response, she shifted her gaze towards Daisy and spoke.

"Please take care of him."

Saying so, she walked past them and moved towards the Throne Hall's exit.

Meanwhile, Titus and Daisy glanced at each other and sighed in unison.

Daisy then leaned on Titus's muscular arm, glanced at Rhea's back, and asked.

"Is she angry at me?"

"As I said countless times, she is not angry at you, Daisy. My sister and my friends are disappointed with my decision. In truth, I also want to become stronger and protect everyone. But can I achieve that? After training for more than eight years, I learned one bitter truth. In this cruel world, there is one thing you need most to grow stronger. It's affinity strength. If I want to enter the realm of Rank-4, my shadow affinity must be above 'Good' level!"

"My sister has 'Good' affinity in Knowledge, so there is a high chance that she could Rank Up in a few years. Then, there is the strange blood-related class. Although I don't know much about it, she has a higher chance to Rank up further. The same goes for Rhea and Noel. After Rhea became the Queen of Iron Kingdom, her water affinity suddenly rose to the 'Genius' level and is still rising. She'll become a Rank-4 Mystic in a year or two. As for Noel, he is a born genius in swordsmanship. But mine is just a High-level shadow affinity. If I stay with them for too long, my heart might get broken, my dear. Their talent and growth speed scared me."

Titus muttered in a deep tone, pulled Daisy closer, turned around, and walked towards the exit.

In truth, Daisy was the one who understood his pain most!

She stood by his side when he was alone and helped him get out of his brutal training schedule.

If he had continued to train without improving a bit, there was a high chance that he might have gone mad!

She helped him get out of the training life and showed him what a commoner's life looks like.

In deep sorrow, both of them walked out of the Royal Palace and soon left the Royal Street through a carriage.

They reached their private house a few minutes later, packed their belongings, and soon left the Iron City.

…

Five billion light-years away from Edhen World, a particular human moved in the deep space at an unimaginable speed and soon stopped as he reached an asteroid belt.

He appeared to be around 40-years-old, had wavy blonde hair, a round face, and pure silver eyes.

He wore red armor and looked more like a knight from the fantasy stories.

He was none other than Udnir, God of Time!

Even though he was just an avatar, his mere existence caused the nearby asteroids and space debris to move away in different directions.

A force field also appeared around his body and blocked any dangerous void life forms or space debris from getting near him.

He was currently in Crown Belt Stars, located in Crown Nebula, and was in the middle searching for a particular Space Point in the Primal Galaxy.

He roamed in the nearby two galaxies during the past five years and checked more than 5 million space points.

Unfortunately, he still wasn't strong enough to pinpoint the exact location of that particular Space Point.

But if he were in his peak state, he would have found the particular Space Point in seconds and transported to another part of the Universe in a few minutes!
