Chapter 261: To the Fourth Floor

Eria / 

King's Palace /

Diana's Room / 

"How's your feeling?"

In the calm room where there is a mother who has just given birth to a baby boy, the father asked the mother's condition.

The mother brought her little baby closer to her radiant face and answered: "I'm overwhelmed."

The mother showed the happiest face while hugging her little baby boy.

Ardian Reddragon. Ars' second son after Ares. A tiny little brown-skinned boy. He inherited his mother's skin and hair color. With the fierce face of his father.

"In all my years of being a hunter, it never crossed my mind to have a real family, or even a child."

As a valkyrie, Diana once make an oath to give her soul and body for the dream of terra; to be wings and sword to move forward to the depth of Abyss.

But now she is in a comfy bed, holding her own baby like an ordinary woman out there. 

That happiness was possible because she made a second vow to be by Ars' side.

To make a second vow while the former was still attached to her, it was actually disgraceful.

But at that time, no one would complain about it anymore. 

All those who knew of the oath, or those who hold the same vow, gave Diana a chance to be happy, for herself and for them.

"Ardian. It's a handsome name. Have you thought about giving it to him before?"

"Not really. I just merge our name to become his, and voila, became Ardian."

Merge the father's and the mother's name. Ars and Diana. Ar taken from Ars, while Dian taken from Diana. Became Ardian. 

Once again, Ars did not want to take it hard on naming his children.

"But that is still splendid."

Ares and Ardian. Asianna, Asianni, and Silvy. All five of them have handsome and beautiful names.

Even when people hear the babies' name, they will give a praise to the intelligence of the name-giver, the father. 

Although they won't know that the father just doesn't want to take it hard of naming his children.

"Now that you've try your best to get this boy, I want you to only focus on him from now on."

Ars' sentence has several meanings, one of which is; retire in the world of Hunter and focus on being a mother who takes care of her child.

Diana stretched her grip away from Ardian. Then she takes a better look at the little baby boy. 

The baby is really small, or is it just her hands so big? Diana does not know. What she knew is, she wanted to protect the little man with all her might.

But that meant she had to break the first vow she made.

"I will bring all the Valkyrie with me but you."

Soon Ars will descend to the lower floor, the Fourth Floor, to continue the battle of Abyssal Hunter.

He will bring all the manpower he could get and brought them all to a floor with higher level of danger.

By leaving all his children and several wives.

Silvia's Room / 

"Will you bring Elisa?"

"No."

Ars immediately answered the question of if it's related to the youngest wife.

Silvy was sleeping soundly in her crib. Meanwhile, her father and mother were talking about the family's future plan. 

"You and her are going to raise the children. Diana will more focus on being the head of family and decision maker. Do you have an objection?"

At Ars serious question, Sylvia gently shakes her head. 

"I may be experienced in leading, but family is not my field. So I put my trust in her."

"Good, then."

Of all the six wives, Ars will bring three and will leaves three of them.

Huxian could already leave behind the triplets. 

Arlene was actually the most reliable to take care of the children, but she preferred to be beside Ars.

Skadi will always be Ars' third sword.

The rest will stay in the palace to take care of all matters.

"Is it true that Frida will not join the first wave?"

Ars could rest easy leaving his thriving kingdom because Frida was not come to the expedition.

"She still had to determine whether the kingdom could be left or not."

"Wouldn't it be hard if you didn't bring the eye of the Abyss?"

"Mine is enough."

Ars' Dragon Eyes might not be comparable to Frida's God Eye. But he has gone through and faced many things alone with his Dragon eyes.

"When can she catch up to you?"

"When the kingdom's ready to be left. And don't think about following along."

Ars' could read his wife's mind. The intention was indeed small, but Sylvia still had the desire to catch up to her husband.

Having decided all that, Ars looked out the window. It was as if someone had called him. He got up from the chair and walked to Silvy's crib. 

Sylvia took her little baby to show to the father. 

The father gives one last kiss to the baby girl on the forehead, and slightly wakes the baby.

After that, Ars walks to the window. Sylvia followed closely behind; like a wife taking her husband to work.

Before leaving, Ars gave Sylvia one last kiss. Now he is ready to go.

Sector 5 /

Fourth Floor Station / 

Swordaircraft / Captain's Room 

"There you are. Have you said goodbye to all of them?"

Arlene immediately welcomed her husband. 

The captain came just in time. It was about time they take off. 

Ars came out of the captain's room. Skadi was waiting outside.

On the deck, everyone was still busy with their business, until Skadi stomped the Silver Sky Staff onto the surface of the deck to announce that the captain had arrived.

Everyone immediately cheered for the arrival of the captain.

On the iron boat flown by airship, the first expedition wave to the Lower Floor was about to get down.

There were ten giant red swords floating around the ship. The ten swords belonged to the captain, which, when the captain snapped his fingers, the ten swords would burn red.

Everyone shouted loudly at the signal. 

"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

It was a sign that their expedition was about to begin.

In the bow, a muscular man with blond hair touching the surface stood up straight. He is the vice-captain, as well as Team Leader of the Expedition's First Team, Troy the Gluttony.

Troy raises his right hand up. Then drop it as if to hit the ground.

"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

A second cheer occurred at the same time the ship descended into the giant black hole.

Black holes full of mysteries whose ends are still untouched. But a group of brave people, full of dreams and questions, challenge the ignorance in search of answers.

Before they get inside the darkness, Arlene had one question.

"Have you really said goodbye to Elisa, Ars?"

To that question, Ars had no intention of answering.

It's up to Arlene what answer she wants. Then let's just say Ars had said a proper goodbye to Elisa.
