Rise Of The Legendary Emperor 124 It's For Men Amaryll

"No it's not a problem, we need to go through the Zenith kingdom anyways"

"So where is Riya's home?"

"She's from an island called the Esterlis, in the Tredal Kingdom"

This was the first time Knight heard about such a kingdom but since he was from another world, many kingdoms were unfamiliar to him.

"I'll take Gael with me, I have a good friend in the auction house in Zenith.I'll auction the keys and give everything to Gael before leaving to Esterlis with Riya"

Don nodded and looked at everyone 

"How many of you have s.p.a.ce rings?"

As expected, no one spoke except Uncle Dior showed the ring he got from the Royal Dine

'Knight send someone to buy s.p.a.ce rings for everyone here, they should each have their own rings"

Even though Don had a bunch of s.p.a.ce rings acquired while living in the divine continent, Don didn't want to give them the rings in case they lose and the rings fall into the wrong hands which might bring some unwanted attention towards him.

Considering the wealth in the treasury was going to rise, Amaryll didn't mind buying the s.p.a.ce rings as it could also help her

"Also, we need more men. Five hundred is not enough "

Except for Knight, everyone looked shocked hearing Don because, five hundred men with their lethal effectiveness, they could conquer most of the rank 4 kingdoms with ease.

However Don knew, conquering a kingdom and defending the conquered kingdom afterward were two different things.

And that was one of the reasons that Don didn't mind leaving Korrinth because he would have to stretch his men between Agoira and Korrinth to defend them.

"What do you have in mind?"

Arwen understood Don's goal better than anyone as he asked 

"Slave markets, I don't care whether you buy them or steal them. I want at least three hundred more in our army"

"It'll be done"

Arwen and Arrora said as they knew Don was talking to them because it's their role to attack the slave markets.

"Anything else you guys need to talk about?"

"Yes, who are you gonna leave in charge of Agoria?"

"I didn't choose one yet but for now I'll stay in Agoria"

As he said, Don looked at everyone to see if anyone need to speak about anything 

"Alright, I'll be in my room if you need anything and Arrora"

Don turned to look at Arrora and said

"I put the clothes in the room next to the treasury, give it to everyone"

Seeing Don and Knight leaving,one by one everyone left the room leaving Arrora and Amaryll behind

"Arrora what was he talking about?"

"It's just we bought everyone new clothes"

Amaryll noticed the Arrora was avoiding eye contact and looking a little shady 

"Arrora, tell me what happened? "

Hearing Amarryll's voice Arrora knew she realized something wrong so Arrora decided to show her rather than explaining to her

"You'll see"

Taking Amaryll with her Arrora made her way towards the room where Don put all the clothes they bought from Luther and Granner.

Amaryll checked the room before and she knew to call it a room would not do justice to it as the room was more like a big hall. And she didn't know why Don put a couple of new clothes inside this big hall but remembering a time he bought half of the Royal Dine menu for them, she had a weird feeling about this.

"Here goes"

Arora sighed and opened the room to reveal the hall was filled with new fancy clothes. Arrora felt like she entered into the Luther and Grannar showroom itself.

"Wow"

Seeing the beautiful fancy clothes, Amaryll didn't care about anything else as she hopped towards the clothes like a rabbit and started to check the clothes giggling in joy.

"Well that's unexpected"

Arrora thought Amaryll would throw a tantrum when seeing the hall full of clothes but to her surprise, Amaryll was running around happily checking everything out.

"Arrora check this out, look at this Arrora"

Arrora saw Amaryll couldn't decide which dress she wants as she started to grab everything she sees

"Hey slow there, it's for everyone"

But that didn't stop Amaryll from grabbing the clothes and put them on her before the mirror. While Arrora was checking out the clothes with Amaryll, she noticed there were no price tags on them and realized that Don already took care of it to prevent Amaryll from giving them a lecture about savings.

"And those are for men, Amaryll"

With her excitement, Amaryll started to grab a few clothes Don bought for men as Arrora chuckled and stopped her

"My bad, but this s.h.i.+rt looks nice"

It took a couple of hours for Amaryll alone to choose the clothes that she wants and try each of them.

***********************************

At the moment Don was resting in his room, after cultivating using the Apex machine. He could feel that he's just a jot away from reaching the mid-Star realm. And when he reaches that level, he could fight toe to toe with a peak level grandmaster and easily kill anyone below that level.

The Apex machine had already removed the unstable toxic particles of battle energy from his body which further strengthened his foundation so he could easily pa.s.s through the bottlenecks.

After the fight with Darlene, Don's air bending skills were improved significantly and he could even feel his water bending skills were getting better. Since he already mastered the fire and earth, he didn't have to worry about those.

While thinking about his cultivation and skills, Don heard someone knocking at his door.

"Come in"

Standing in front of his windows while the door opened to reveal Amaryll.

She was obviously wearing the new dress Don bought from the store and with a gentle smile, she stepped inside the room.

"Hey Don"

"Hey Amaryll,"

Amaryll was walking back and forth to get Don to comment on her dress but seeing he's just staring at her without any ideas, Amaryll rolled her eyes and asked

"How's my dress?"

"This must be one of the girly things"

Don thought to himself and sighed inside

"You look beautiful Amaryll"

Don didn't lie because she really looked elegant and beautiful. He saw beauties during his time in the divine continent and even they couldn't stand a chance against this elven beauty.

"Aw thank you Don"

As she said, Amaryll surprisingly seemed nervous and for once in her life, she looked like she couldn't find any words to speak.

And suddenly Amaryll jumped at Don and hugged him, Don could even hear sobbing and smiling at the same time.

She caught him off guard as Don stood rigid and felt her happy tears on his shoulder.

"Sorry I didn't say this before Don, thank you"

She was still hugging Don as he gently patted on her back. This was the first time Don felt somehow alive in a long time. Even until now, Don was consumed by rage and anger, the only thing driving him was his thirst for revenge. 

A small hug couldn't extinguish the volcano of rage and anger inside Don but it was a change of feeling for Don, a feeling that he never experienced in a long time.Also he could smell the dwarven made ale on Amaryll.

"You don't have to Amaryll"

"Promise you'll never abandon us"

He already lost the ones he loved a long time ago and he didn't plan to lose these people too.

"Unless I die, I won't abandon you"

"You're a good friend Don"

"You too Amaryll, now can you let go"

"Just this once, I'll pretend as I never noticed the absence of the price tags"

Amaryll said as she let go of Don and stepped back with an embarra.s.sed smile

"Dinner will be ready in a few minutes Don"

Amaryll said and left the room in a hurry.

And after Amaryll left the room, the place was turned into a meeting spot as every single one of them who got new clothes came to thank Don.

Eventually, Don was saved by Amaryll's a.s.sistants, the two goblins as they came into his room and started to yell at everyone in their language and made a sign symbolizing the dinner time.

When Don stepped into the dining hall, he heard laughter and buzzing which showed everyone's mood.

"Your majesty"

"Me king"

Everyone stood up with excitement and joy on their faces when they saw Don entering the hall as Don nodded and gestured at them to sit down and enjoy the feast. And turning his gaze from the people to the table, Don realized that Amaryll was clearly made this to celebrate his return and

To celebrate their victory in the war with Agoria.

Only Arya and Benedict looked a little gloomy thinking about her father's summon yet for Don, it was a problem for another day as now he didn't want anything but to enjoy the dishes made by Amaryll and relax before going to Agoria.

"Hey Don, come"

Seeing Don, Knight called out to him as Don made his way towards his seat to sit next to Knight and enjoy the feast.

"It's good to be back"
