I could feel that my killing intent leaked out. My head was boiling in anger.

"M-M-My Lord?"

Fianna called me. She was trembling in fear.

"Hiii!!!"

She shrieked when I glanced at her to respond her calling. The Rebels, Karina, mother and Rosemaria stopped whatever they were doing and looked at me.

"Fianna"

I called for her.

"Yesh!!"

She responded in hurry with a salute and bit her tongue by accident.

"Call Karina and the rest. We're going to the Capital."

I said. I never cared how my voice or aura became darker. All I could think was how to rescue my wife and daughter.

Without any second thought I browsed my inventory for a Summoned beings. I choose a Storm Wyvern, a Tempest Gryphon, and two Giant Thunderbirds.

"I will give you a name later, just prepare yourself for the flight."

I said. The four menacing and majestic beasts froze on the spot when they saw me. After hearing my command, they only could stay silent and nodded.

I contacted Shade once again.

'Y-Yes'

He stuttered.

"Tell me the details of the current situation."

I said.

'Y-Yes'

He was really sounded frightened.

'Two days ago, Alicia-sama's division was heading to the west to visit his father's old ally to ask for some help as the rebels were cornered by the Royal Strategist' tactics. Sora who went with them were left in the stable as Lady went to the castle with Young Lady. But, after half a day passed, Sora heard from the passing by patrol guards that Lady Alicia was captured and going to be sent to the Capital as a gift to King Daigo.'

Shade stopped to take a breath.

'Just now, I was able to squeeze some information from an informant that all of this was a ploy to completely take over the kingdom. The plan was to forcefully marry the princess of Maximilian with the Hero King by taking Lady Lilliana as hostage and force the rebels to give up. Before he launch intense attacks on the rebels, he had the neighboring territories into his ally using threats of being marked as a traitor of the alliance just like the old Maximilian if they didn't cooperate. The rebels can't move at all to rescue Lady Alicia thanks to the intensity of the attacks. This made the plans looked unstoppable. Also, this ploy was staged by 'Royal Strategist' apparently.'

He said.

"I see... So, the roots of everything was Royal Strategist-san eh?"

I muttered. Dark feeling of irritation was began stirring inside my chest.

"Shade"

I called.

"What's Alicia's whereabouts?"

I asked.

'Sora is tailing the caravan with Alicia-sama in it currently. Apparently, Lilliana-sama is transferred elsewhere.'

He said.

"The location?"

I inquired.

'I-I have yet hold the knowledge over it, sir.'

He said with frightened voice.

"Find her right away!! Use any way possible to rescue her. I permit the usage of Legion Crest."

I ended my call. I took a deep breath looked at the sky.

"Shall we bring down a real nightmare for those fools?"

I muttered.
