The flying ship was big enough to board everything! It was 50 meters long and 23 meters wide.

*Awoo…*

Arkhen got a thought from Ruan that it could turn into a miniature wolf, and it did.

From the big wolf, it became a palm-sized cute wolf and sat down on Arkhen's shoulder.

"Woah, this wolf is really mystical," Meya said with sparkling eyes.

Arkhen, Neil, and Jakal were standing at the side of the ship's deck with Meya standing in front of them. Meanwhile, Gereld was talking with two middle-aged men. They exuded a very powerful aura. More powerful than Dirroth.

"So, are you all going to kill the one who wanted to kidnap you or not?" Arkhen asked as he looked at Meya.

"I want to kill him, but I don't know how it will go," Meya said as she turned around to look at her brother and the two Elite Knights of the kingdom.

"We need proof that he was the culprit to trial him in front of the king. However, there are always other ways," Meya said with a cold glint in her eyes.

"Haha, when are we going back to my kingdom with you as my bride?" Arkhen said with a laugh.

Meya turned to Arkhen, her blue eyes sparkling as she softly giggled, "That is when you actually create your kingdom, hehe."

After saying that, Meya walked toward her brother to join the discussion.

"Arkhen, how did you do all that?" Neil asked as he released a sigh of amazement. "

"I just did that. Don't ask me how," Arkhen said with a grin.

After ten minutes, the ship arrived at the kingdom's capital. Arkhen saw a vast capital from the air and was surprised. It was big and looked truly like some fantasy world's kingdom. The capital had high walls in 40 square kilometers area and inside, it was filled with various types of buildings made of white stones with colorful patterns and exquisite designs.

At the center of the capital was a very big palace, The Royal Palace of the Kingdom.

There were other big palaces but not as big as the Royal Palace. The border of the capital had tall towers as well.

The flying ship was parked in a big parking area inside the vast 20 square kilometers big capital.

The moment it parked, Arkhen saw the side-quest panel and notification.

[Side-Quest completed].

[+5000 reality motes received].

[+1000 Essence stones of primal, chi, mana, metaphysical, and spirit essences are stored in the inventory].

"We'll meet later if fate wills. Goodbye," Neil said as he and Jakal bid farewell to Arkhen.

While others left, Arkhen followed Meya and Gereld to their Duke palace in the capital with Elite knights.

After they entered a big carriage, it moved deeper into the capital on its big paths. Pedestrians were walking and shopping while doing various things.

After five minutes, they arrived at the Duke's palace and entered inside.

"The Grand Duke and Duchess will be here shortly. They are rushing here from the east border after hearing the situation," one of the Elite Knight with a black beard said.

"Understood. You may leave now, sir knights," Gereld said with a short bow. Meya also did a short bow.

After the knights left, a man in his late twenties with short light blue hair entered the palace.

"Young lord! Young Lady! I am glad you are safe," the man said with a worried expression.

"Yes, Lubon. Thanks to this gentleman," Meya said as he pointed to Arkhen with a smile.

Lubon looked at Arkhen and seeing his body structure and appearance, his eyebrows flared and he instantly turned to Gereld, "Young lord. Did young lady again?"

Meya's face turned red as she pouted and stomped her feet, "Yes! So what?"

After saying that, she walked beside Arkhen and locked her arms with his right arm, and pressed her tender boobs covered by her dress against Arkhen's arm.

"I have noticed this a few times. What's the deal?" Arkhen asked with curiosity.

Gereld couldn't help but wryly smile and sighed as he said, "Meya was easily attracted to handsome and tall men like you. You know, tall and muscular but lean as well. Of course, we drove those men away before they could touch her, but she used to easily get attracted and…

"Still is, it seems," Gereld finished as he glanced at Meya.

"You are wrong. I was not easily attracted this time, okay? Humph," Meya said as she cutely snorted. "Arkhen saved us, and he is my type. So this time, I am allowed to get attracted to him! It's not a stupid impulse or anything. This is logical!"

"Arkhen, I heard you have wives? Don't get caught into Meya's childish behavior, please." Gereld ruefully smiled.

Arkhen just smiled and didn't say anything. He separated Meya's arm away from his and said, "I want a quiet place where I can meditate since I want to make a connection with a star of endowment and awaken my soul."

"I will lead him to the room," Meya said as she once again grabbed Arkhen's arm and turned to Gereld before smiling, "I was just kidding, brother. I told you have I changed. Come, Arkhen. I'll show you the place."

"Young lord," Lubon looked at Gereld with an uncertain expression.

"Relax. I trust her. She has indeed changed. In the last year, she was never attracted to anyone," Gereld said with a smile. He was with her all the time and had observed her.

"But I feel like this Arkhen is a bit different. Kind of gives me some mysterious vibes even though his strength is weak," Lubon said with a doubtful expression.

"That I agree. I still can't figure out how did get the necklace and other feats he displayed when we were imprisoned," Gereld said with a nod.

​ …

Meya led Arkhen to a room on the second floor of the palace. It was a big room with exquisite furniture, even better than the furniture and design in Arkhen's Aerzax castle.

There was a big balcony going out of the room with a grassy floor and various arrays of flowers.

"Good place," Arkhen nodded. 'Velshi, did Emily and Azela wake up yet?'

[They are still sleeping. It's just 9:49 AM in the morning. I think they will wake up around noon with how wild yesterday's evening to today morning went].

"Take rest, Arkhen. Bye," Meya said with a smile as she left the room after leading Arkhen here.

Arkhen walked towards the balcony and took a deep breath. This Duke's palace was at the periphery of the capital, and outside the big walls, he could see the beautiful scenery of greenery and a small pond. A couple of people were moving, going to someplace.

'Let's start,' Arkhen said as he sat on the grassy floor of the balcony garden and closed his eyes in meditation before taking out 1000 primal essence stones, 1000 mana essence stones, and 1000 spirit essence stones.

With a small mountain of essence stones in front of him, Arkhen started to absorb them to refine his ponds.

[My lord, do you want to absorb all essences from the stones at once? The essence can stay in your inner space. You can absorb them into your ponds to refine them from there. This will shorten the process by a bit].

'Nice, do it.'

A second later, the 3000 essence stones turned to dust as the essences inside them were absorbed into Arkhen's inner space. From there, Arkhen controlled the essences and absorbed them into his ponds, and started refining them. He started with primal pond first.
