30. Faith’s Formidability

Daniel Song sat in a crowded meeting room with a long gilded table and walls decorated with luxurious paintings. It was finally time for all the issues to be addressed: the Demon threat that had been let to run rampant for so long was to be tackled today. The young man couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. After all, he was finally going to spill his big secret by the end of it all.

There were many influential and powerful people gathered. Individuals of note. There were the obvious— Headmaster Clayton Skyshredder, princess Faith, and emperor Rowyn Ino— but there were also individuals Daniel didn’t recognize. Like the man with a mustache, followed by a dozen knights in shimmering armor. Or the elderly man sitting next to Clayton, wearing regal robes fit for a king.

But at the head of the table was a familiar face. Salvos. A Demon girl who was currently disguised as a Human. She could become a plethora of other creatures. From a Kobold to a Cyclops. And possibly even more. Here she was— in her deceit— leading this discussion on how Humankind was to deal with her own kind.

It was an irony of sorts; a tragedy of complacency; even laughable. Daniel was the [Hero] here, yet he remained silent. He allowed Salvos to speak. It showed the tremendous growth she’d been through, and how far he’d have to go to catch up with her. At one point, they were equals. Now, she’d far surpassed him.

“Now, let’s talk.”

Salvos clapped her hands together. Daniel waited with bated breath for the revelation. The truth. The epoch-making news that would shatter everyone’s reality.

Clayton Skyshredder ran a hand through his beard. Princess Faith steeled herself. Emperor Rowyn closed his eyes. Everyone waited. And Salvos… cocked her head.

“Um, hello? That was your guys’ cue to speak.”

…

“What? Were you expecting me to say something? Because I really don’t know what you guys want from me.”

Daniel sighed. She’s grown so much, yet changed so little. He couldn’t help but smile at that.

Faith wanted to cover her face in embarrassment. This was not how she was preparing the meeting to start. She had a speech prepared, and Salvos had already derailed it from the very beginning.

“Thank you everyone for gathering here on such short notice.”

Clayton cleared his throat as Salvos sat back down, shrugging. Fortunately, the Headmaster of Mavos Academy was more than capable of defusing the… awkward situation.

“As Salvos had alluded to, this discussion will not be a short one, and I would like to get to the crux of the issue as soon as possible. Princess Faith, could you please explain the reason why you came to Mavos Academy today?”

Faith nodded and stood to her feet. She addressed the room, carrying whatever leftover dignity she had as a member of the royal family of Elutra. Even though she barely looked it after a month of travel— propriety was necessary in these situations. Especially amongst rich and powerful strangers.

“I am princess Faith El of the Elutra Kingdom.
