Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: A Fateful Meeting

After the introduction, Kronus parted ways with Aiden. As Kronus walked away, Aiden shouted,

"You'll see, Kronus! I will become a warrior like you!!"

Kronus replied, "First, worry about your hands; you won't be able to become a warrior without hands, ha ha ha!!"

Aiden replied with courage, "Sure, but one day I will surpass you and become stronger!!"

Then Kronus left the village with a smile about Aiden's courageous words, and Aiden cried with tears and vowed to himself.

After returning to the capital, Kronus wanted to eat, so he searched for a hotel and came across a hotel named Niko. Kronus paid close attention to the hotel's reception and saw the girl he had saved earlier from an entity.

Then he remembered and checked his pocket for the card, which said, "Hotel Niko, Owner: Lyra." Surprisingly, Kronus took interest and entered the hotel.

After he entered the hotel and sat at a table to place his order, the girl approached him happily and said, "Ohh!! Mr.Knight Wh-What is your want, sorry!! What do you want to eat? Thanks for saving me earlier.

Since you're here, I'll take care of your bill, so you can eat for free as a token of gratitude."

Kronus replied, "Yeah, thanks! But it's my duty; I don't want my meal for free." The girl said, "Anyway, what do you want to eat?"

After Kronus told her his order, she went to prepare it and brought his meal with a smile on her face and excitement.

Kronus finished his meal, and when he paid and was about to leave the hotel, the girl called him and said, "Mr. Knight, thanks for coming! And-and what is your name?" asked him with a blush.

Kronus replied, "My name is Kronus; what is your name?" The girl replied with excitement, "My name is Lyra."

When she finished, Kronus shook his head, as if to say "okay," and left. But Lyra followed him outside and shouted, "Can we meet again, Kronus?"

Kronus replied with a thumbs-up and left. Lyra felt very happy and excited and said to herself, "You're not cold as everyone says, Kronus."
