Not just the human leaders started to come from around the island, but the rulers of the creatures came as well: Centaurs, Dragons, Fairies, Griffins, Pegasi, Unicorns, Sea Serpents and the Merpeople. The sea creatures sprouted though big water holes that were dug deep in the earth that were made in tunnels that came through the seas to the island’s inland.
During the time many diverse leaders were taking to get to the Western Region, Valverno and the family of Geraldus held a small funeral for their father. He was buried at a valley of hills covered in blue roses. There was a small tunnel built that goes into the hill with a small statue built on the hill’s top resembling the person buried there.
Just on the right was a statue of Alaric, Geraldus first son. The three girls were crying heavy tears from their eyes, and the twin boys did show some tears.
It was now going to be hard for the family to cope with the loss of Geraldus. They lost their mother about a year ago, and now they lost their father. With Flavius now taking on the role as the Head of the family and inheriting the White Knight power, pressure would fall to the next eldest child: Eliana.
Valverno lost a good fighter and a father as did his foster siblings. Now with Flavius, with no experience with wielding power of a White Knight, was going have to be trained from Valverno into how Flavius was going to be the next White Knight of Loyalty, even though Flavius may not put his loyalty into Valverno. Valverno had no idea how the future will hold for the Cornelius family.
He had three years until the day would come for Lusìvar would be able free his Titan followers and wreak havoc on the two islands. Even if he had command of all the military of the islands, there would be no way the hundreds of thousands of soldiers would be able to take down seven Titans. He would have to be the one to take down the Titans, and without the animal DNA upgrades he had, he would have to find the third armor artifact to that would fully restore his ripped power.
He didn’t know what the future would be in store for Shimabellia or the other island. He needed to protect the freedom for life and the future of future lives, and with the problems he was going have to deal with were not going to be easy tasks.
After the funeral was held, Valverno headed back to the village and through the many buildings. He saw many people now staring at him with many looks. The people didn’t just show odd or strange looks; the people were looking with great amazement. They have heard him being the legendary demigod.
It was one thing for parents to tell their kids fairy tales and legends of a certain hero who leads a group of chivalrous knights against dark cults wanting to take over the islands. It was another thing to see at the actual legend standing in front of them, and they’d never expected to see Valverno and one of the White Knights walking about them.
Valverno was joined by his sister as they walked through the village and to the barracks where the leaders from around the island were gathering. Valverno saw not all the leaders were there. This was possibly due to some people still being loyal to Uragiru, no matter what he said to the island through Valverno’s own crystal orb
The leaders sat all around the training grounds. There were ten rows of stacked tables sat with leaders around a few corners of the island. Each leader was dressed in different garments and armor; there was a mix of soldier and nobility among the small crowd.
The three clan leaders were gathered with Teutates at one table. The rest Valverno didn’t recognize since he didn’t explore the rest of the island. He didn’t know what leaders from the rest of the island were there.
From the spot he walked on, he saw the Dragon King standing on a high point overlooking the crowd of island leaders. Next to him was the Unicorn King. They both were accompanied by their bodyguards, as with the rest of the ruling creatures. The creatures stood apart from the humans and kept their distances.
Valverno walked across the yard filled with human leaders that began to talk softer and stare at the demigod as he walked passed them. Soon, their soft tones of whispering turned into a loud talk if he walked into a grand hall of a mighty castle.
In front of him, there stood a small platform with a small table big enough to seat four people. This was the point of the main point where the host, which is supposed to be the main person in charge of the meeting. Valverno was the one who called them, and he was the host of his gathering of the island leaders.
At the table there was Monico seating there, as well as Sora and Flavius. The White Knights who would stand behind Valverno. There was an empty spot for Valverno to stand at while the White Knights sat ahead of the position.
Valverno walked past the table corners and joined his three companions. They looked at the people who ceased their talking and looked at Valverno. The men and women staring at him were waiting for him to say something.
“As you all now know, I am Valverno, demigod from the world of Pangaea. And I have come to fight against Lusìvar and
