Chapter 228: Who Are You?
The reason for her to tag along was that Alice Leywin came to the house in a panic early this morning, She was accompanied by Reynolds and the Helstea family after she heard that Arthur was taken away by the council for an investigation.
Alice really thought Arthur had done something wrong that might put him in danger and was very worried about his situation, Even when she was emotionally unstable after hearing the truth about Arthur it was clear how much she cared for him.
So after hearing about what happened she ran to Haru's house who was Arthur's teacher in the academy to know what really happened and if Arthur had really done something.
It took some effort from Haru to calm her down before he sent them back home, Reynolds was really thankful to Haru since Alice and Ellie didn't stop crying since they heard the news, Knowing that Arthur was friends with Randel, Zenobia also wanted to accompany Haru to see what the council was planning.
'I guess, something is going to happen today since the Council made up excuses to bring Arthur there alone,' Haru thought about some possibilities in his mind.
"My Lord you should be more careful at how you present yourself," Queresha on the other hand walked up to Haru and fixed his crooked tie.
"Resha you should know that I am not any good with such things," Haru said plainly, He was never good at dressing up.
"Then it can't be helped, It looks like I would have to look after My Lord all of my life," Queresha said with a smile.
'You do that already, don't you?' Haru thought but smiled nonetheless.
"Cough* We might get late if we delay this any longer," Zenobia coughed a bit to get things back on track, But she was curious about how they will reach the flying castle since they would normally need the help of a lance to get there.
"Well that is easy," Haru said while placing his hand on both Queresha and Zenobia's shoulders.
WHOOOSH*
And the three vanished from their position.

'This whole day has been weird, and who are these two people? They even made the kings and the Lances so respectful like this,' Arthur's mind was tried since he had been through too much trouble today.
Early this morning he was brought here by Lance Bairon and Lance Olfred to give his statement about the incident that happened at Xyrus academy.
This whole situation was too suspicious since there was no need for him to give his statement in front of the royal families. But it wasn't like he could refuse them since it would complicate things even further.
So after coming to the flying castle with Sylvie he had an audience with the Royal Families or more like….
An interrogation, he was kind of expecting it but he didn't know they would so openly try to frame him like this. From what he had heard Lucas has died, yep that guy was dead. And to him, it seemed like they were trying to frame him for this somehow.
His only saving grace was the Eraliths who met the other two head-on, It was mostly Merial and Virion who weren't having any of this bullshit along with Cynthia who also defended him.
But just as things were about to get heated between the royal families the door was swung open and two people walked in with Lance Varay and Lance Bairon following them.
The man on the left had a sculpted face with platinum blond hair on top of it, neatly swept to the side. His deep-set eyes almost touched his brows, which appeared to be permanently furrowed. He wasn't burly or muscular, but his square shoulders gave him the air of a warrior and was wearing a military-like uniform. His name was Windsom.
The second man looked old but despite his aged look, he stood, poised, with his hands elegantly placed behind his straight back. Both of his eyes were closed, bringing further emphasis on a third, unblinking eye on his forehead that glowed a radiant purple. This man was called Aldir.
Arthur was shocked at how respectful everyone was to these two men even if the Dwarven queen threw a tantrum at the start a quick word from the lances made the room deadly silent.
'What are deities? and why are both of them looking at me?' Arthur didn't understand why the two who made the top powers of the continent were so scared that they didn't even dare to breathe and these beings were looking at him with so much intensity.
'Is it that I am too good-looking? Ok, let's stop with the jokes it looks like Professor Haru's narcissism has affected me, Are they perhaps…..' Arthur thought.
[Papa those two weird men are looking at me should I beat them up?] Sylvie who was on his shoulder spoke with a somewhat angry tone.
[Huh? What do you mean beat them up? I can't even sense how powerful they are, We do not stand a chance since even the lances are somewhat scared of them, And most importantly who thought you that?] Arthur asked Sylvie in confusion, Since when did she become like this?
[Papa has no Elegance,] Sylvie harrumphed and Arthur's mouth twitched.
'I think I understand who did this? Professor how many problems are you going to create for me?' Arthur shook his head in dismay but stopped when he saw Windsom coming toward him.
Before he could react Windsom took his hand and rolled up his sleeve unfurling Sylvia's feather on his wrist.
By the time Arthur moved back everything was done.
'What is his deal?' Arthur thought at Windsom who walked back near Aldir who still had a stoic face.
'So that is Lady Sylvia's daughter, Now one of the tasks has been completed,' Aldir thought as his gaze went towards the royal families and the Lances behind them. Taking the gesture Virion stood up from his seat and spoke.
"Did something happen for the deities to come all the way here?" Virion asked with a grave expression since deities didn't just show up for no reason, So if they are here now it should be a big threat.
"We weren't supposed to interfere with the lessers but when we noticed that some of the people of this continent have strayed from the correct path, We deities as merciful beings decided to bring them back to the proper path," Aldir said plainly his words made the Glayders and Greysunders to shudder in fear.
They feared for their life at the moment, It was clear that the deities knew about them betraying the continent.
Virion who looked at the two couples looking at the table while shivering understood something.
The incident regarding Cynthia and then how they were accusing Arthur earlier on, All the pieces fell right into place he still didn't know what they were trying to accomplish. He also understood that the Greysunders and Glayders tried to betray their own people. He had a lot to say but it wasn't the correct time to do that.
'Now all that is left is to take Lady Sylvia's daughter back along with that man,' Windsom thought in his mind and waited for Aldir to continue.
Seeing that everyone had their full attention on him Aldir opened his mouth.
"The mai-BANG," But before he could speak the doors were swung open once again startling the royal families with how suddenly it happened. Everyone had different expressions seeing the man that walked in with two beautiful women.
"Oh! Sorry did I interrupt something?" Haru asked with a smile looking at everyone and making their jaws drop. 'What is this guy?' The Glayders and Eraliths didn't know what to say along with the Lances, they knew Haru was eccentric but they didn't think it would this bad. I mean the people in front of them were deities; They weren't people one can interrupt like this.
Seeing Haru Windsom smiled since the prey walked right in front of them.
"So you came here yourself, It is good that you saved ou-," But sadly Windsom's words were cut short by Haru again.
"Who are you?" Haru asked as he tilted his head to the side.
"...Do you not remember me?" Windsom frowned.
"Nope," Haru shook his head.
"You, I met you on a rooftop near the market," Windsom said as his frown got deeper, he couldn't believe that a Lesser forgot about him.
"Ah! You are the one who ran away, Man no wonder I didn't remember you," Haru said as a look of realization dawned on his face.
The room turned silent as everyone could hear Windsom grind his teeth. But no matter what all of them couldn't get one question out of their head.
'Is what he just said true?'
"Compose yourself Windsom, there is no need to explain your actions to the lessers," Aldir said still stoic as ever, hearing him Windsom calmed down but they didn't account for someone else boiling in anger.
"You Three Eyes what did you call My Lord?"
