The Shining Star Above The Heaven-Chapter 1041: Intense Shock

Aldrian wondered who the one that wanted to meet with him were, for even General Zordan himself had told him personally.

Aldrian nodded. "Alright."

Zordan then led Aldrian towards the temporary warp gate in the base. In front of the warp gate, Aldrian could see a man in armor already waiting. He could see the same symbol as the one on General Zordan’s armor engraved on this man’s armor.

The symbol of the Royal family.

As the man saw Aldrian and General Zordan, he observed Aldrian for a moment with a curious gaze.

"This is Sir Aldrian that everyone talked about," Zordan said to the man.

After hearing the confirmation, the man slightly bowed. "Sir Aldrian, I’m the envoy sent by His Highness the First Prince of the Gardum Kingdom, Martis Veradin Gardum. His Highness the First Prince would like to meet with you at this moment." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Aldrian raised his eyebrows. It looked like his achievement in this place had already reached the highest authority, and they had even quickly sent an invitation to meet him. This showed how they found his achievement to be a big deal, for even the First Prince wanted to meet with him at this moment.

"Alright, I also would like to meet with the First Prince," Aldrian replied.

The envoy nodded. "Thank you. Now let’s get going. Your Highness is already waiting for Sir Aldrian." The envoy then looked at General Zordan.

"Sir Zordan could stay here. Let me be the one that escorts Sir Aldrian. Sir Zordan must be quite busy at this moment with the advance movement."

Zordan nodded. "Well, that’s true. Then Sir Aldrian, you could follow the envoy by yourself."

A moment later, Aldrian and the envoy stepped into the warp gate, and they stepped out in a different environment. Aldrian appeared in the desert. A vast flat desert that spanned until the horizon.

The warp gate was located inside a big camp that was much bigger than General Zordan’s troops’ camp, which was a sign that the number of troops stationed here was much larger.

As the envoy guided Aldrian to where the First Prince was staying, Aldrian observed his surroundings. The troops here looked much stronger on average, and many of them were bearing the flag of the royal family. There were also some from other families, and they were also strong, with even middle Pseudo Immortal stage cultivators among them.

The biggest tent in the camp was erected in the center and became the most important place of the camp, as this was where the First Prince stayed and also served as the command center. After a few minutes of walking, they finally arrived at where the First Prince stayed.

The royal guards surrounded the tent in a circle, forming a tight guard and ensuring that nothing and no one could enter or leave without their watch. All of the guards were in the Immortal Transition Realm.

The guards, knowing who the envoy was, instantly let him in with Aldrian following behind. After they entered the tent, Aldrian could see a large table and a board showing a large map of the kingdom. There were already many scribbles on the map, which showed the troops’ movements.

Aldrian’s gaze also fell onto the handsome young man wearing armor, sitting on a chair with a table before him and a vacant chair already prepared across it. He seemed to be enjoying his tea with a serene expression that could attract any woman.

Without the envoy even having to introduce who this young man was, Aldrian already knew who he was. As he observed the prince, the prince also looked at Aldrian, and just like many others who saw Aldrian for the first time, he was stunned by how young Aldrian was.

Before he could observe further, the envoy bowed to the prince.

"Your Highness, I have brought Sir Aldrian."

Prince Martis nodded. "Thank you, Charles. Now you may return to your post."

"Yes, Your Highness." The envoy then stepped out of the tent.

The moment only the prince and Aldrian remained, Prince Martis smiled towards Aldrian as he approached him.

"So you are Sir Aldrian, the one that I heard has contributed tremendously to our victory against the devils armies in the Luger family territory. It’s good to see you, Sir Aldrian."

"I just do what I’m supposed to do, Your Highness. It’s only right for me to help get rid of those devils." Aldrian replied.

The prince kept his smile and gestured towards the table.

"Would you like to accompany me for tea, Sir Aldrian? I would like to know more about you."

"It will be my honor," Aldrian replied.

Aldrian then sat on the vacant chair across from Prince Martis, while the prince himself poured tea into Aldrian’s cup.

"This is our special tea grown in the southern highlands. Luckily, that place is still far from the devils’ influence, which allows us to still enjoy this tea without any problem," Prince Martis explained.

After he finished pouring, Aldrian looked at it for a moment and picked up the cup. He felt the warmth of the tea before taking a sip with closed eyes, enjoying the sensation of the tea entering his throat.

After a few seconds, he opened his eyes. "Truly a great tea, Your Highness. This tea must be grown in a special environment with great care. It gives a refreshing effect and also a calming effect on the mind, even for those in the Immortal Transition Realm. This tea might give benefits to anyone who wants to gain enlightenment."

"I’m glad that you like it, Sir Aldrian," the prince said before he also sipped his tea.

Aldrian also sipped the tea once more before they put down their cups.

"So, Sir Aldrian, I got a report about what you did from General Zordan, and it made me very curious. I have many questions about you."

"If Your Highness has questions, then I would gladly answer," Aldrian replied.

Prince Martis nodded. "Then where do you come from, Sir Aldrian? From what I know, I have never seen nor known someone like you in this world. From your description and abilities, there is no one in this world who fits it. If we had someone like you since the start of the war, I doubt those devils could have occupied a large part of this world."

"I’m from another world, Your Highness. Or more specifically, the Ancient Blue Gate World. Do you know where it is?" Aldrian answered, which made the prince widen his eyes in shock.

"Are you telling me about that Ancient Blue Gate World? I mean the one located in the central star cluster near the Northern Star Cluster?"

Seeing the prince’s reaction, which was quite intense, Aldrian was slightly stunned, but he nodded.

"Yes, Your Highness."

The prince’s eyes glistened, and his expression turned serious.

"Are the news regarding the Ancient Blue Gate World true? The one that said a mighty figure appeared in that world and brought great change to its surrounding worlds, and was even the biggest factor that made the Northern Star Cluster, which was occupied by the devils, be reclaimed and freed from the devils’ grasp?"

"That’s true, Your Highness," Aldrian replied.

Prince Martis released a long breath. "To think you came from that far world. How could you come here? Our world rarely has visitors from that place."

"Well, I was in the middle of my journey when a misfortune befell me that threw me into this world," Aldrian replied.

Prince Martis raised his eyebrows. "So Sir Aldrian arrived in this world by accident? Where was Sir Aldrian heading before being thrown into this world?"

"I want to go to the Central Region of Heaven."

Hearing the destination, the prince showed a shocked expression once again.

"What?! The Central Region of Heaven? Do you understand what kind of place that is?" Prince Martis truly could not hide the disbelief in his tone, and his expression showed as if Aldrian had already gone mad.

Aldrian did not change his expression and nodded with a calm gaze.

"I know what kind of place that is, but I have my purpose in going there, and I have to go there no matter what."

The prince narrowed his eyes. "May I know why Sir Aldrian wants to go to the Central Region of Heaven? That place is the most dangerous place in the First Heaven as of now because it has already become the headquarters of the devils since long ago."

"The region is filled with countless strong devils which are never seen in other places. This is the first time I have heard someone want to go to that place, which is truly bizarre." Prince Martis looked at Aldrian suspiciously.

"I want to go there to end the existence of the devils in the First Heaven once and for all," Aldrian replied without hesitation and with full confidence.

Hearing that kind of answer, delivered with such confidence and calm expression, made the prince’s heart shake. The first thought that appeared in his mind was—

"Are you for real? Ending the devils’ existence once and for all?"

He did not know if the man in front of him was in his right mind or not. If it were easy to end the devils’ forces, they would not have reached this point where the devils could spread their influence and territory.

Isn’t the man in front of him too arrogant to say such a thing? Where did he get that confidence from? Is this man underestimating the devils in the Central Region of Heaven just because he has the power to kill several thousand troops?

"Are you serious?" the prince blurted out.

Aldrian nodded. "I’m truly serious, and I know Your Highness must think that what I said is nonsense and may even think that I’m arrogant and underestimating the devils."

"However, what I can say is that there is no better time to end the devils’ existence in the First Heaven than now, because the devils have already lost one of their overlords in the First Heaven after I killed the Vampire King and slaughtered his armies."

"WHAT?!"

Prince Martis stood up from his seat and hit the table, which made the tea slightly spill from the cup. This was the most intense shock he had shown so far.
