The Martial Unity

In the Royal Office in the Vargard Palace, the Emperor of Harmony found himself seated at his table, his hands steepled with authority as he leaned forward upon his table.

His sharp, golden eyes remained fixed on the person before him, bearing deeper into her amber eyes. He studied her eyes, bright with warmth and life, her expression beaming with eagerness at the meeting with Emperor Rael.

"Let me begin by extending my due gratitude to you for your contributions to the victory of the foreign entity," the Emperor of Harmony began with a calm, composed tone. "As well as your help in helping us understand the status of the epicenter of the Beast Domain and returning our Martial Sages to us. Thank you for your contributions to human civilization."

Amare beamed at his words with a genuine smile. "You're welcome! I've always wanted to meet you. Rui speaks very highly of you, you know? He told me that as long as human civilization had you, then it would survive and thrive!"

A small smile emerged on the face of the Emperor of Harmony. "Did he now? That's flattering, considering human civilization has only survived thanks to him."

"That's true," she murmured with a hazy tone as her mind went to Rui. "He has done more for the world than the world realizes…"

Her bright eyes twinkled with affection as she swept a tuft of her long brown hair behind her ears.

The Emperor of Harmony studied the woman with great scrupulous scrutiny.

This was the woman that Rui had gone as far as to overcome death itself to reunite with.

She was also one of the only people who had not only earned his love but also managed to keep it by keeping up with him. She was extraordinarily powerful and extraordinary a being in herself, with all the information that the Emperor of Harmony had gathered about her.

And yet, the Emperor of Harmony considered himself a good judge of people, able to read people quite well with not just training but also now almost four centuries of experience in dealing with people.

That was why he could tell.
