Creaak!

Reign was looking outside the window of his room as the door creaked open and Fiorina entered the room. The young maid was much more polite and shy after he had returned as she had, like everyone else, heard the news of him becoming a first evolution combatant. The king had prepared more lavish and bigger rooms for all the first evolution combatants, but Reign simply asked to have the one he previously stayed at.

He was more used to it, and he wouldn't be staying here for much longer either. He had already gone through the first evolution which was the whole reason the system had teleported him here, but before he could leave there was one more thing he needed to finish.

The hidden quest he had received must be completed before he could return to Earth. Luckily for Reign, he already knew what needed to be done, not only that, but he was quite confident that by doing the quest, he would also be able to find the missing Lios.

"Here are the clothes for tonight's ceremony young master," Fiorina said as she bowed before slowly leaving the room. Ever since Reign had returned she changed, no longer did she try and force Reign to let her clothe him or anything like that. That was of course because he was now a first evolution combatant, even though he was powerful before, the power and prestige a first evolution combatant enjoyed couldn't be compared to someone that hadn't gone through it.

Reign pretty much did the same as before, the rank A items he had were called back into his body while any rank B items he had stayed on. As Reign put on all the clothes a series of knocks were heard as the guards arrived to escort him to the throne room.

The guards were also treating Reign differently now, nobody in the whole area would dare disrespect a first evolution combatant, especially not one that had managed to kill a first evolution combatant before going through an evolution. Even though the battle against the king of Older was something that was only possible thanks to Raigon using the array and sacrificing his clone, it was still Reign that managed to deal a heavy blow to the king at the very end before stabbing him through the heart.

That, coupled with the fight that Reign had with Licht managed to quickly bring his fame to an incredible level in the whole area. Raigon was the same, the black sheep of the royal family, the person that had seemingly no talent for fighting was suddenly found to have been hiding his power and talent for a long time. Not only was he the Judge, but he had also managed to go through the first evolution and even fought against and completely suppressed the queen of Lusom who had been a first evolution combatant for some time now.

The exploits of the two men quickly spread through the whole area and even though everyone knew that Raigon's father, Lios, was missing, everybody believed it was only a matter of time before he was found.

With the kingdom of Riplas now having 4 first evolution combatants looking for the man, it was almost impossible for them not to find him. Riplas was already a powerful kingdom with a great geographical advantage over the rest of the area, with them getting new first evolution combatants, the situation in the future was bound to change.

Tap, Tap, Tap.

Reign walked with the three guards as they took him to the throne room, as they opened the door they stayed in place before Reign suddenly stared at one of them and motioned for him to come closer.

"You, and also you," Reign suddenly pointed to another guard, "Enter with me, I might need your help for something."

The two guards glanced at one another with confusion before nodding at Reign, it didn't matter what he wanted, the man was one of the most powerful people in the area and they would of course listen to him.

As they entered the throne room, the king and the others looked at Reign with a peculiar expression, rarely would someone enter the throne room with two guards behind them after all.

"I'll need their help for something real soon, so I called them in, I hope nobody minds." Reign smiled charmingly at the crowd and the king who simply shook his head whilst laughing a bit. All the nobles and notable figures of the kingdom were present in the huge throne room, Reign felt a bit nostalgic as this was the place he first saw after being teleported to the kingdom.

This time however he was here to get rewards from the war, he had helped out the kingdom a lot with his exploits and they needed to properly reward him after all. The battle gloves that Reign took from the king of Older were given to Raigon after he had returned, the defeat of the king was a joint venture after all and both deserved the item. Of course, Reign also had the spatial ring of the king, which was also given to the kingdom, all in all, Reign only took a couple of things and put them in his inventory.

He also gave his own spatial ring for inspection as he wanted the kingdom to trust that he didn't take anything. With nobody knowing of the existence of his inventory, Reign was able to take anything he wanted with the kingdom having no way to know about it.

"My friends!" The king suddenly said as Reign sat down next to Raigon at the seat that was reserved only for the first evolution combatants and other powerful figures of the kingdom.

"After fighting for such a long time, we have finally managed to defeat the coalition, it was a long war that led to many of our people dying, many who had families, dreams, and ambitions." The king spoke with a heavy voice.

"We have avenged the fallen and won the war, now our kingdom is larger and more powerful, that isn't without risk however as the other kingdoms are now wary of us, in the coming years we must do our best to increase our strength, we can't risk another war staring while we are not ready."

The people in the crowd all nodded in agreement with the king's words. Nobody wanted war, but it was clear that the whole area was changing, nobody was satisfied with what they had and it was only a matter of time before the whole area gets engulfed in the flames of war. If they didn't want to be the ones to lose they needed to work hard and increase their military strength quickly.

"Now, this wouldn't have been possible without two people that managed to go above and beyond all expectations, Raigon and Reign." The king suddenly pointed at the two who were sitting next to each other.

"Together they managed to take down the king of Older, a person whose power was well known in the area, not only that, but they did it without being first evolution combatants." The king spoke with a proud voice before continuing, "Afterwards, each of them went through an evolution and joined the battle at the other two fortifications, allowing us to win against the coalition and finally put an end to the war."

The whole throne room suddenly echoed with thunderous applause. Reign and Raigon were without a doubt the reason why the kingdom managed to win the war and they were currently hailed as heroes. They managed to defeat the king of Older and immediately ran to help the other two fortifications, with their help the whole war was turned upside down, and the kingdom of Riplas was victorious.

"Now, before we present the rewards, there is one matter that needs to be dealt with." The king said before switching his gaze to Licht who was sitting next to Lisea. The woman nodded to the king as she got up with Licht before standing behind him while he was in the center of the throne room.

"The king of Asuria, the wonder boy, Licht." The king spoke as he stared at Licht with a calm gaze, the crowd immediately turned quiet after hearing his words, they knew that Licht was successfully captured by Lisea and Reign and that his fate was going to be decided today.

The whole kingdom was divided as to what should happen to Licht. There were many that wanted to see the man dead as he was a member of the coalition that attacked them while there were others that advocated for Licht and his kingdom to be made into a vassal of the kingdom. Asuria was very advanced and their scholars and engineers were incredible, the advantage they would bring to the kingdom would be great.

It was now time for Licht's fate to be decided, whether he will live or not will depend on what the king had decided with the higher-ups of the kingdom.
