"It's him!" Juright said and the old man nodded. He doesn't know Zamright but he felt something deep inside him for the boy.
Zamright stood before the majestic Throne. It stood at 4 meters tall but the aura it gave was like he stood before a mountain.
The throne room was small and plain with no furniture. This showed that courtroom members stood, maybe.
He walked to the Throne and touched it and immediately he felt a connection with it. Also he found that what he was seeing was not the true Throne but rather a representative of the true item.
Zamright's eyes widened in shock because he knew the true Throne and it was the only thing he now knew that remained of his family.
The true Throne was the item the Exalted Master gave his family as a gift and a token to allow him to become one of them.
Now it made sense that his brother became a King just 10 years after that, it was because of this device—artefact.
The rulers of Transparent Lantern were known as the Lantern Family but it was more of a tribe and clan. There were many family branches and by virtue, the greatest branch in an era gave out the Royal King.
Because of the device—artefact, his family gained, they became the greatest and thus gained the throne for his brother.
Technically speaking this device—artifact is his own now. It was given to him for his family and thus he has authority over it.
At that moment, things become more understanding to him. He was able to enter the City and also the Palace with ease and even went through the barrier of his mansion and now here.
How could the oldest Monarchy system in the world be breached with ease like this unless he has more authority over the power that protects the Kingdom than anyone else?
Zamright frowned before he sighed and then turned to leave but met with the two individuals.
"Master Zamright, greetings!" The old man said as he bowed and Juright followed suit.
Zamright didn't feel anything but said. "Greetings and goodbye!"
"Please, hear us!" Juright said but Zamright had already left but the old man followed, however, he stopped as the presence of the king appeared out of nowhere.
Garight appeared in a flash of light and took Juright from the throne room. Seconds later a tall, muscular man appeared in the room. On his head was a long crown made of weavings of copper and iron.
He gazed at the throne before he sat on it.
Second later, the throne room was filled with people with a frown expression. They were forcefully pulled by the king with no consent but seeing his closed eyes and angry face they all have a chill under their spine.
Six of them had a knowing look before one stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, there was nothing from the eyes of the birds."
The King's face became more ugly and another one said, "Wind is silent too!"
The king clinched his teeth and opened his raging red eyes and bellowed, "Find whoever it was!"
This interaction might be silent but the six figures knew what happened and that the throne for just a second had removed the King from Authority.
That was why he returned very fast and summoned all the people that had a bit of control of the throne to see if it was one of them who tried to usurp him.
But they weren't and the worst thing was that none of the detection devices, artefacts and even abilities saw who it was.
Unbeknownst to the world, the whole Great Lantern has shaken to the core and a hunt for someone they don't know has begun.
Zamright returned to his accomodation and said to Van they were leaving and so he should inform their Guide.
Arrangements were for their departure from Maple Leaf in just under 30 minutes.
On their way, the guide known as Jinga trembled and his eyes changed colours before they returned to normal.
Every Guide has undergone that state before returning to normal.
The rulers of the Great Lantern had to make sure their investigation was silent and did not attract attention because the very idea that the king lost authority to the throne was appalling.
Who knew what or who would stick their hand in the nation affairs?
The very idea that they were looking for someone regardless of reason will attract unwanted eyes.
So, everything has to be as silent as it could be. However, no one told the story of Zamright, it's like they have forgotten, even Juright seemed to have forgotten.
Only Old man Garight remembered, and for that reason, he kindly went back to his hole so as not to draw attention.
They reached their accommodation and Zamright finalized they would leave the moment a plane was available. With how efficient the planes were, that will be just in 6 hours or 9 at most.
It's not like he was running away but rather he wanted to be away from trouble.
He was not ready for any complicated endeavour. He hasn't even awakened his tattoos let alone gained their abilities.
He also wants to study the equipment given to him. Especially the boat as it will be easier for travelling. For all that he needs to awaken his Exalted Blessing.
If that happened, the next thing he needed to do and the most important was to see if he could awaken True Blessings.
Even though he knew he would awaken as told by his master, he was somewhat nervous. Beside, True Blessing came in different forms and usage, he wondered what an Ancient Exalted Slave like him would develop.
Sigh!
Zamright sighed as he looked at his hand, they are small, cute and he tried to smile but failed. His heart was hollow.
To awaken his True Blessing he needed to at least purged away the first layer of impurity and also gained his Exalted Blessing.
