Chapter 580 Rumors and Speculations: Love in the Air

The cheers in the entire Colosseum came to a halt for a moment as they saw the young kid they were looking down had knocked their prince/acting emperor in just one move.

Most of them didn't even understand how this happened. All they saw was that Neremyn charged forward and then in the next second, he blasted away. 

The proctor and the other elven elders finally realized why Azzy raised the stakes. It's because he was confident about winning.

In the meantime, the wealthy high elves were impressed by Azzy's overwhelming display of strength and several schemes started going through their head. They weren't too different from humans. Everyone desires power and authority.

Some loyalists to the royal family had the urge to stage an assassination of Azzy, abduction of his little sister, and everything, but whether they dare to go through it is quite questionable.

Azzy reunited with his family outside the Colosseum and made their way to Searvale Tower.

That day, he and his family received a number of guests they never met in their life. All of those High Elves wanted them to visit their house for lunch or dinner. Some even invited them to stay at their residences as guests for a day.

One of them was Queen Amara Moonstone, the leader of Moon Elves who rules the northern lands of the Empire as the vassal of the throne.

Izora couldn't ignore her invitation with any excuses and neither she was able to say that she will think about it because of the fact that Princess Isolde is her half-sister.

Amara is Neremyn's eldest half-sister from a different mother and was later married into the Moonstone family of Ithildinore, or known as the land of Moonstone in the Orlon language. After her husband's death, her son ascended to the throne. 

Due to some unexplainable circumstances, her son dies and she took over the control due to the fact that no qualified heirs. For the past thousand years, she ruled the land as the Queen Regent of Ithildinore and people also accepted her as their leader due to her Moon elf bloodline from her mother's side.

The next day morning, Isolde tagged along with Azzy and his family as they traveled to the northern lands of the Empire. All the way, she couldn't just stop smiling and acted way more cheerful than normal as she chatted with Izora, excited about leaving the pocket world and going to the real world.

The day was spent with nothing that happened as Izora expected. Amara didn't expose any of her intentions and it appeared as if they were on a vacation at a friend's place.

The group of five returned to Death Clan, where everyone already got the news of Azzy's win. But, just like Izora, the others also misunderstood that Azzy was bringing the daughter-in-law to the clan village. The fact that Isolde looks too attractive and the fact that she couldn't just stop smiling in excitement didn't help either.

Those who are in certain higher positions in the clan know the truth but what about the majority of the clan members with no access to such information? 

They could only celebrate the fact that their young master fell in love with the beauty and won her in battle by defeating her brother. Is this why Neremyn challenged him? If so, when did they meet?

Their young master had been missing for a couple of years before his return. Perhaps, it happened then?

Okay, what now? Will they get married? There's a war coming up and the results of wars were always unpredictable. Is that why Azzy will get married off?

Some opinioned that he is too young while others argued that he is already considered an adult once he crossed 16. Some argued that elves have long spans of time and she's probably a lot older than him and some made a counterargument that their young master is destined to be a demigod and only an elf with long life is worthy.

Several rumors spread all over the village during the next few days.

Vesyrn tried to put off the rumors by spreading information that his son is not going to get married and neither did his son have any relation with the celestial elf, but he didn't try too hard as he, himself, didn't completely believe Azzy's words completely. Isolde's beauty is enough for a young adult like Azzy to fall in love at first sight.

Not to mention, the next invasion is almost here and will probably start within a week or two. He cannot afford to think about other things, at the moment. Thinking that it will disappear as time passes, Vesyrn put his focus on more important things.

Meanwhile, Azzy made a visit to his workplace and informed his decision to recruit someone as a trainee for Zero Squad. Isolde's application process went smoothly due to the fact that she is already in the 7-star realm and probably because she's an elf, just like Commander Kruger.

On the fourth day after Isolde entered the Death clan village, she finally left the pocket world along with Azzy and reported to her new superior, an elf who should have been bowing to her if they were at the Eden Empire because of her royal bloodline.

But, her superior turned out to be different from her initial expectations. Despite learning the existence of the whole Elven Empire and the fact that she is a celestial elf, he still treated her the same way as the rest of his subordinates.

Azzy then took her on a brief tour of the Zero Squad's pocket world. After escorting her to her room, he said, "I'm going to make a visit to prison because of an ongoing secret mission and will return by evening. You can rest here or do whatever you want in the dormitory. You have the key pass for that. Okay?"

Isolde shook her head in response and replied while slightly struggling to speak in Orlon, "No, I come with you. I, your subordinate, you go, I follow. I take promise seriously."

Azzy wanted to say 'No' but then the Reaper's voice echoed in his head, telling him to take her with him.

According to Azzy's view, the Reaper never says things without any deep meaning. He thought she or her Arcana spirit might be helpful to him in some way and agreed to take her with him.

Soon, both of them made their way to the Maximum Security Prison of WAMO, which looked exactly like a normal pyramid made of stones from the outside.

Once they stepped inside, Azzy and Isolde felt suppression on their soul orb. Both of their soul realms were completely suppressed which made them feel like civilians without any powers. Even Azzy's second core was sealed. 

Azzy didn't feel much different because of his confidence in his divine physique but the elf jumped away like a scaredy cat while letting out a scream of surprise.

"Kyaaaa"

The guards at the entrance didn't move a bit as it was something they often see. Azzy, on the other hand, calmly turned around and asked, "Do you want to stay outside and wait or follow me?"

Isolde hesitated a little bit and stepped inside again, "I follow."

"Good, let's go, Miss Searvale." Azzy nodded with a smile and started walking forward. Isolde looked around in curiousness as she followed him from behind.

After walking for a while, going through three more checks on the way, the two of them reached a cell where a healthy-looking clean shaved old man was seen meditating.

Just as they reached the cell, the prisoner opened his eyes on his own and let out a smile as he gazed upon the young adult, "You must be Gary." His eyes then shifted to the elf and his expression changed to that of a frown, "And you are… elf? I thought that Commander Kruger is the last of your kind."

"Eh? Gary?"
