Fate/Inheritance

Chapter 14 - 13: A late night’s talk (King’s side part II)

(A/N: To those who forgotten about part I what happened can be summed up as;

King enters room and talks to a shadow about the Heroes

Asks for the Casualty Report of the Day and the Assassination attempt of the Grand Commander.

Another country successfully conducted a new hero summoning)

"One of the agents planted in another kingdom reported that another Hero Summoning was successful." – ???

"*groan*'These will be another long night…' What kingdom successfully finished the ritual?" – Regis

"Boutras Kingdom" – ???

Hearing the name of that kingdom made the king grimace and even the 'Princess Leticia' renowned for her grace and gentle disposition made a look of disgust, clearly the name 'Boutras' is synonymous to them as something foul.

For in this world Terradesia its main continent; Atlas Continent is mostly partitioned in 5 major parts the North, West, East, South and the Central Regions, these areas had sovereign powers that resided in it, they may from different races but human settlements and kingdoms thrive in these areas in just different variations. The Northern Region is where mostly the elves and their elven kingdom reside where the competing race for domination in that area; the dwarves and the gnomes thrived in its mountainous areas, the Northern Region also serve as a linchpin of where the enemies the locals call Demons are mostly keep in check. In the East where a mysterious tribe of humans reside and a certain Demi-Human race built a powerful empire ruled there while closing it from the outside world.

In the south where a lot of republics and small kingdoms thrive for resources and the strong trading due to the open sea routes and the interaction with the mermaids and mermen who visit there. While in the West where the twin sister Romeneria and Lumeneria Kingdoms reside alongside some kingdoms of humanity and other tribes.

While the Central Region home for a vast unforgiving desert and massive mountainous regions and cliffs reside the kingdom known for its military might the Boutras Kingdom, "The First Kingdom Built by Heroes". Now this kingdom may be built by heroes but it's royal family has been replaced countless times and majority of this families where heroes of the first, second, and third generation summoned to defeat the enemy. There were times that the fourth generation heroes where though to replace the ruling heads there but all the locals got was the sentence; "It's a pain to rule over people you know~ Do you know how the presidents and CEO's in our world quickly got older and died from stress related ailments!?" Such where the confusion of the locals who are confused with the modern thoughts of the heroes.

Now back to Boutras Kingdom, due to the fast replacement of who will be the royal family, there were various holes in their policies and they even most of the time resorted to violence to solve the problems plaguing the kingdom leading to a lot of corruption. The reason this kingdom is mostly hated for a lot of bandits and thieves are somehow 'mass produced' in this kingdom. Back to the situation in the room which had a poor king trying to keep up with the incoming stress. King Regis looked at the shadow and asked one more time like a plea.

"Are you sure it's 'that' kingdom?" – Regis

"Yes your majesty, my son can verify the legitimacy of this report." – ???

"Wait is that kid stationed there again?" – Regis

"… Yes, his disposition is a perfect candidate to be placed there and where lacking manpower…" – ???

"*groan*Speed up the recruitment of troops and train them properly and find talents in espionage and digging information also." – Regis

"By your command… Your majesty I also got a report that is both a good and a bad news…" – ???

"*groan*What's the side that is a bad news first…" – Regis

"Two of the summoned Heroes of the Boutras Kingdom had a Commanding and Training-type Gift and the other one had a strong talent in spells of the Status Detoriation and Recovery kind and it's mostly those that affects armies even…" – ???

"If you combined it with their military might*groan* this will be really dangerous in the long run… What's the good news from those anyway?" – Regis

Looking at his king that is writhing in agony the shadow secretly smirked at his liege's pitiful state and said;

"Ohh there is good news your majesty. *chuckle* The Hero that had the Commanding and Training-type of gift seemed to came from the world the fourth and our summoned heroes or had somewhat similar state. He also had similar personality and intelligence of the Hero of the Thousand Hands." – ???

"Hmm really!? Hahaha well let them have that problem child then! I believe with that evaluation that kid may even change that stupid country inside out haha!!" – Regis

For those who are confused why the king is happy. The first to the third generation of heroes were randomly summoned from different worlds but they tend to have similar technological levels of the world of Terradesia and combined with the idea they are already battle ready? They were a perfect candidate in being tactical weapons but they tended to die quickly due to arrogance. Then the fourth generation came about where each member is eccentric in their own manner and quoted by the Sage of Reality;

"Hopeless cases and dangerous products of the modern world."

Looking at his king's image who had a look of joy he clearly remembered how that Hero who is the epitome role model of a busy body saved him when he was just a child. He waited for the king to calm down.

"*cough* Aside from those can I finally hear my dear daughter's report about the heroes?" – Regis

"Yes your majesty. The temples and the representative of the other races will arrive a week from now and will personally train the heroes who had similar skill sets to them. We also requested various S – Rank Adventurers were invited but most of them are busy in other assignments… While the fourth generation heroes… " – Leticia

"What is it Leticia?" – Regis

Looking at the hesitating face of the princess the king and the shadow tilted their heads in confusion while secretly hiding their anticipating and excited looks.

"… They decided to appear only in the routes that the heroes will pass by…" – Leticia

Looking at the embarrassed look of the princess they were speechless about such weird condition the eccentrics had said. When the princess can't take anymore the questioning gazes she said what was written in the letter sent by the Hero of Music who is now a famous traveling bard.

"Well the Hero of Music-sama said 'As their Senpai ain't it cooler for us seniors to appear gallantly when they are in deep need? Where we can freely get the spotlight and teach them what heroes should do~. Well Ai-chan will surely ruin it though with her antics~ but I believe she can manage~.'" – Leticia

"…" – Regis

"…" – ???

Looking at each other the two old friends that have a boss and employee relationship now grandly sighed and said at the same time in their thoughts.

'Those weird old guys…' – Regis & ???

============================================================

Somewhere Unknown

"""Achooo~!!""" – ???

Looking around the forest there is a group of three individuals. A young man dressed in all green suited in the style of a mix of an old French military clothes and a cowboy hat with a red feather plum and holding a flute, A lady dressed in a red qi pao with a 3 – clawed brown dragon design and white lilies surrounding it and lastly a small child In a typical witch's clothing.

"Did someone just talked behind our backs~?" – Flute-user

"Hmmm there were a lot of people who hates us… Could be one of them?" – Red Qi Pao

"Well we gathered a lot of hate mostly due to Ai-chan and you though~" – Flute-user

"Shut yer trap you off-tuned idiot!" – Red Qi Pao

"Hey you call the best Bard in the world off-tuned you single dragon lady!!" – Flute-user

"Ha! The best Bard they say when he just plagiarizes songs from artists in our world. Also! The men around me are wimps like you and Leader who kept on apologizing! It was even called by that Demon King his greatest weapon! While the locals here are too unqualified for me except maybe that old man running his kingdom or that fisherman from the south but their too old!" – Red Qi Pao Lady

"Zip it! I always said that the songs are not composed by me! They just call me genius due to how skillful I sing and play my instruments! The elves in the north even love it when I sing their traditional songs! Also too old? Says the 124 year old granny." – Flute-user

"You bastard I'm 24! 24! I was sleeping at Alice place the rest of the years!! Also they would naturally love them due to how bored they always are~! Except for their old and traditional stuff, they only get a battlefield a bit farther from their place as entertainment!" – Red Qi Pao

"Why yo– "Shut up you two buffoons I'm consentrating in my Slave Magic here!"

""Don't practice that outside you idiot!! You could erase the world with that! Go ask Alice to make a training room!"" – Flute-user & Red Qi Pao

"Hmph I must master G*ga Slave the faster I can so I can shove it to that stupid Demon King's Face. I'll show him who is more skilled in magic…" – Witch Cosplayer

"*groan*…" – Flute-user & Red Qi Pao

This is mostly the daily interaction of this group of three. Will they soon meet the new budding heroes or will they destroy the world first due to a misfire?
