Chapter 180 King Of Solaris
Chapter 180 King Of Solaris
?After hearing Nathan's words of confirmation, the light on the King's eyes shone brighter.
"Boy, I order you to take me to where the [Miracle Tree] is!" He said, keeping his dignified look.
Knowing that he is no match to the King, Nathan sighed, "Yes, I will bring you there."
Saying that, Nathan raised his hand and said, "Please put your hand in mine."
The King was confused, but the excitement in him stopped him from thinking for long and placed his hands on Nathan's.
"Now then, we're going now. Please don't be surprised." Nathan said before using his thoughts to enter his dimensional space with the King in tow.
…
In a grassy plain in front of a huge, majestic tree, Nathan and the King suddenly appeared.
"We're here!"
Nathan said as he let go of the King's hand.
Walking a few steps forward, Nathan approached the majestic tree in front of him.
With a light smile, he said, "Hello, are you awake?"
The next moment, the tree swayed a little and a gentle voice sounded inside his head.
[Hello, Nathan. It seems you have someone interesting with you this time.]
Hearing that, Nathan turned his head back to look at the King only to see him staring at the [Miracle Tree] with wide eyes.
Then, a few seconds later, tears started gathering at the corner of his eyes until it overflowed and dripped down his face.
Taking a few shaky steps forward to approach the [Miracle Tree], the King suddenly opened his mouth and with shaking voice, he muttered,
"Mira…"
Hearing the King's call, the [Miracle Tree] also seems to tremble a little before going back to normal.
The next moment, Nathan heard the voice of the Miracle Tree again, but this time, it was not through his head, but through his ears!
Because of that, it was not only Nathan who heard the voice of the [Miracle Tree], but also the King!
"I did not expect that I would meet you here, Arthur."
From the tone of the voice, Nathan can feel that the [Miracle Tree] speaking with a 'smile on its face'.
Once the words said by the [Miracle Tree] entered his ears, the teary eyed King fell on his knees and started bawling his eyes out.
"Uwaa, Mira, it really is you huhuhu…"
Nathan froze on the side as he saw the King start crying like a kid.
He did not know how to react in this kind of situation.
So, he decided to move a few meters away from them for now since it seems like they know each other anyway.
Back to the [Miracle Tree].
After seeing the King crying on his knees, the [Miracle Tree] started swaying stronger than earlier.
A few branches moved and tapped the crying King a few times as the [Miracle Tree]'s voice sounded again.
But this time, its voice that is full of gentleness has a hint of sorrow and nostalgia.
"Yes, Arthur." It said,
"I never thought that I would be able to see you again… Husband."
"MIRAAA! I'm sorry for not being there to protect you. Waaa!"
Tears continue to fall out of his eyes as he screams his heart out with words of apology towards the [Miracle Tree].
The branches of the [Miracle Tree] started to extend towards Arthur, the King, until it fully covered his entire body.
"It was not your fault, Husband. Do not blame yourself." Said the [Miracle Tree], comforting Arthur.
After that, no more words sounded again.
Only the sound of the King crying and the rustling noise coming from the swaying leaves on the tree.
And an emotional scene of a tree hugging a man took place in this dimensional place for no one to see, except one.
Nathan, who was standing a few meters away from them, watches as this all happens and can't help but feel some emotions.
"Hays… What an emotional reunion."
"I never expected that the Miracle Tree that I randomly planted and the King that I met at the center of the Earth would actually be husband and wife."
A smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his lips and he said, "Making them meet again after an unknown number of years, I wonder if I'll get good karma in the afterlife."
Chuckling at his own words, Nathan shook his head and stopped paying attention to the two and laid down his tired body on the grass.
"I'll take a rest for now. It's been a tiring day for me." He said as he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
…
"B… bo..y… BOY, I SAID WAKE UP!"
Nathan, who was peacefully sleeping on the ground, was startled awake by a loud voice yelling directly in his ears.
"What!?"
Nathan's opened wide as he jumped up in shock at the sudden voice.
"Oh, it seems like it works!"
Just as he was shaking his head to get off the ringing sound in his ears, Nathan heard a chuckling voice beside him.
Turning his eyes to see who it was, Nathan saw Arthur sitting beside him with a big smile on his face.
With a face full of grievance, Nathan asked, "Why did you have to yell directly in my ears, do you want me to go deaf?!"
Not minding Nathan's attitude, Arthur just chuckled and replied,
"I tried to, but you didn't wake up no matter how many times I called you out gently."
Hearing that, Nathan has no choice but to accept and let out a sigh.
Standing up, Nathan stretched his body a little and his bones started popping.
"Ugh, that felt good." He said,
Looking back at Arthur again, Nathan said, "So, why did you wake me up?"
This time, a serious and solemn expression appeared on Arthur's face.
The dignity of a King started covering his body again as he said,
"First and foremost, I, Arthur Solaris, King of Solaris, thank you for letting me see my most beloved once again."
