Reincarnated As A Fallen Angel 72 Key Of The Monarch

'I am fine now, the higher G.o.d's are becoming more active lately so you should wait a while before coming back. ' Nyx replied, hiding the fact she was still injured.

'I have a question, Kira is being very persistent about meeting you. He said he can increase his own power if he comes face to face with an G.o.d. What does he mean by that? ' Alice asked, still curious about Lord Kira's words yesterday.

'If that is the case then he will never meet with me. What he is referring to is an abomination, I a.s.sume he has the Dagger his G.o.d used when the G.o.d's lived in the Mortal Realm. It has the ability to drain a G.o.d of their power and transfer it to the wielder for a short period of time. However I have heard that some of the power will remain with the wielder for as long as they have possession of the dagger. ' Nyx replied.

'You can not meet Kira. ' Alice said stubbornly.

'Don't be a brat, I have said from the start I refuse to meet him! In any case I must take a nap so you will not be able to talk with me for a while. Be careful. ' Nyx said before entering a state of hibernation to completely recover from her wounds.

Finding out what Lord Kira meant, Alice decided it was best to try to see the rest of the world in order to grow her own power and eliminate the constant pestering to meet Nyx from Lord Kira.

Finding him in the throne room surrounded by his advisors and knights Alice quietly took a seat on one of the steps until she could find a chance to talk with him.

"Lord Kira, if we want to finish taking the continent we must continue with our efforts. I do not see why you refuse to conquer Samaria and the Kingdoms beyond it. " One of the advisors, a stocky man with a red beard and a bald head said as kindly as he could.

"I agree with Dusty, Lord Kira. We need to be proactive and finish your will in order to finally achieve your dream. " A Knight who wore black armor and had a claymore strapped to his back said.

"I have an agreement with my daughter to not step foot there or to send my men that way. Do you plan to make me a liar after I have finally gotten her back? We will leave them alone for now and when the time comes my daughter will go and bring them under my rule peacefully. There shall be no more talk of the Kingdoms to the east. Now go back to your normal duties and leave me to have a word with my daughter. " Lord Kira replied sternly.

"You did not tell them of the oath? " Alice asked after seeing the last of the men leave the throne room, to be sure they would not be able to hear her.

"That is something they do not need to know. I am happy you came to see me. Would you care to join me for the rest of my meetings today? " Lord Kira replied, seeming to be quite happy.

"That sounds really boring to be honest.. I did have a question though. I was wondering if I could go see the other Kingdoms you have conquered. I only ask because I am not very good at sitting still, I also want to train more and get stronger. " Alice asked.

"I think that is a great idea! You will be able to see how happy people are under my rule, hopefully you will come to trust me more seeing that I am not the dictator you think I am. " Lord Kira said standing from the throne and motioning for her to follow him.

Following Kira quietly she was feeling a little weird seeing him act so cheerful, "Where are we going? "

"I am taking you to the storage room so you can pick some things to make your travels easier. I can't let my daughter go out into the world not prepared can I? " Lord Kira replied happily.

'It is so weird seeing him so happy… ' Alice thought to herself as they arrived at the storage room which was protected by six guards and had chains locking the door shut.

"Open the room for us. " Lord Kira commanded the men standing guard.

As soon as the chains. .h.i.t the floor the doors opened revealing a huge room with countless rows of shelves holding various weapons and items that Lord Kira had collected or taken over the years of his rule.

"You can take anything you see here that you think might be of use to you in your travels, I will go and get you some money to take with you so that you can buy anything you may need. " Lord Kira said before leaving Alice alone in the room full of treasures.

Looking around Alice couldn't help but to think the sight was impressive as she walked through the isles of shelfs and occasionally picked up a weapon before putting it back down remembering she already had a weapon that was better than what was in the room.

Getting a little bored Alice came across a small box on a shelf by itself. Walking over and opening the box she was slightly surprised to find that it contained a black key that began vibrating when she picked it up.

"It seems you have found a rather important item. " Lord Kira replied, noticing the kay reacting to her.

"What does this key unlock? " Alice asked curiously.

"When I found the key a local villager had told me of a story surrounding the key. There use to be a very powerful man long ago, it is said that he had enough power to rival some G.o.ds. He could shroud entire Kingdoms in utter darkness to the point you would not be able to see or hear a thing leaving some of his enemies to go mad after being trapped in that state. The villager referred to him as the Shadow Monarch. The key supposedly will unlock the Shadow Monarch's home if it is ever found, allowing the person to inherit the Shadow Monarch's power and spells. Once I heard this I knew that this key was worth holding onto, I have sent countless men to search all over the planet for the Monarch's home and none have succeeded over the years. I even went back to find the old man who told me the story only to find he had died the day after I left the village. The key reacted to you so if anyone has a chance of finding his home and gaining his power I believe it will be you. " Lord Kira said, picking the box up and handing it to her for her to keep.

"Thank you, what took you so long anyways? A few gold would last me for a long while. " Alice said, taking advantage of the perks of the Demon King believing she was his daughter.

"Nonsense, the world is vast and there are many places you do not know of yet. If you hope to compete with the people of Dunmar at the auction house there you will need more than a few gold. " Lord Kira said, handing her a large bag which almost hit the ground when he handed it to Alice.

"Just what did you put in the bag?? " Alice said, surprised by its weight.

"There are around 75 Holy coins and a badge displaying my family crest in the bag. If you ever find yourself in trouble you can show the badge and no one will mess with you any further. Or you can wear the badge and use it as a show of power, my soldiers will listen to your command upon seeing it as well. Be sure not to abuse it, I would hate to have to come get you. " Lord Kira replied.

Having stopped listening after hearing the amount of Holy Coins in the bag Alice struggled to bring herself back to the conversation with such a shock. Alice was now the most wealthy person she knows of.

"Why would you give me all of your money? " Alice asked, a.s.suming there was no way he could have more money than what he had just given her.

"Hahaha, that is only a small part of my wealthy child giving you this much will be just fine so don't worry about me. " Lord Kira said laughing at the thought of that small amount of money being all he had.

"I almost forgot to tell you, the monsters and the people on this side of the world are far stronger than the ones you have faced so far so I will be sending someone to keep you safe. " Lord Kira said only to be greeted with a pout from Alice.

"Do I really seem that weak to you? Would you have accepted a babysitter when you were my age? " Alice said, really not wanting to be tied down to someone who wouldn't be able to keep up with her pace when it comes to traveling.

"You really do take after me don't you. Fine, but keep to the skies until you reach a settlement or Kingdom. Don't do anything dangerous until you get used to how things are. " Lord Kira said, putting his hand on her shoulder and pulling her in for a hug.
