Arthur's pov:- After talking with mom we made our way towards the dining room where dad and Ellie are sitting on chairs

"Arthur we want to talk to you about something," dad said.

"About what dad," I asked

"About participating in war," dad said.

A chill ran down through my spine in fear are they planning to fight in war again?

"Arthur your mom and I discussed and came to an agreement that neither of us nor Ellie will participate in this war" dad said.

"Really," I said with a smile of relief on my face.

"Yes, we've realized that this isn't even the war that we can fight. fighting with deity's is like doing suicide for normal humans like us" dad said.

I wrapped my arms around dad and said.

"Thank you for understanding me dad and don't worry we will win this war," I said.

"Yes, we know we will we know you can turn the tide of this battle that's why we are not participating because we know that the only weakness you have is us and the enemy can use us against you," mom said.

"No you are not my weakness you are my strength," I said.

Ellie stood up in front of me "Although I don't really approve of mom and dad decision I understand from where they are coming just promise us one thing that you won't do anything reckless, If you tried to become the hero and come back dead I'll kill you"

My parents and I just laughed after hearing what Ellie said.

"You heard her promise us that you won't do anything reckless and come back to us alive," mom said.

"Yes mom, Ellie I promise I won't do anything reckless and always come back to you alive," I said.

"Don't ever forget that you have a family that loves you and will always be waiting for you" dad said.

"Yes dad, and Ellie I know you want to fight like a soldier but i want to fight you to protect our family to protect mom and dad when I'm not around ok," I said.

"Hey, why Ellie needs to protect me," dad asked.

"Oh, dad so you didn't notice huh Ellie tell that what stage is your mana core at," I said with a proud grin.

"Dark orange" Ellie said scratching the back of her head.

"Holy shit" dad said with her mouth wide open.

"And not only that she is also a beast tamer," I said.

"What," dad said in shock.

"Yes dad our Ellie is strong," I said.

After talking some time dad, mom and Ellie fall asleep I didn't need to sleep much so I started roaming around that's when I see madam astera patrolling around I made my way towards her

"Hello madam astera," I said.

"Hello, General Arthur," she said.

"No need for formality madam astera," I said.

"So aren't you even tired after wiping out alacryan forces," she said.

"Actually I don't need too much sleep," I said.

" Thank you," she said.

"For what, "I asked.

"For saving me that day," she said.

"No need to thank me I'm thankful to you that you understand my intentions and helped me by taking Tess and Nyphia out through the portal," I said.
