Chapter 225 - Return To Ishgar {3} What Makes An Overlord (1/2)

After Amell had left the courtyard, Alora, Sebas and the two maids stood in silence. ”Sebas, how far behind am I, lord Amell if you were to base it of this fight?” Alora asked the leader of the maids. Sebas looked at her, ”I don't know. I would say it is similar to how you would describe the difference between an ocean and a pond.” He said calmly.

”Hm, I thought so,” Alora sighed out loud and sat down on the stage, ”He is just too freaking strong!” She said sadly. But while saying this, she had the biggest and brightest smile on her face. Sebas and the two maids shook their heads with a smile and then bowed towards Alora. ”Miss Alora, we will start with the cleanup, please go get some rest,” Sebas said respectfully.

Alora nodded slowly, ”Sounds good. I also need a bath!” She started walking away from the scene, leaving Sebas and his maid squad to fix the quart yard.

Amell had left the castle, and he had left the mountain entirely. He was on his way to one of the Overlords of the island. He was traversing the deep and dense forest without any difficulty and every beast inside the forest that layed eyes upon him bowed their heads in servitude.

It didn't take long for him to reach the place where this Overlord spent most of his time. And where he had arrived at was a large cave, similar to the one Alora lived in when Amell first took over this island. And immediately he felt an incredible heat coming from inside the cave.

”To what do I owe the pleasure, God?” Leo, one of the five Overlords came walking out from inside the cave. In his human form which he was currently using, he was a tall man, around 190 cm. He had a body so large and muscular that he didn't look flexible or nimble in the slightest. He also had very long golden hair that hung down his front and back. On his face, he had a large bushy beard that hid most of his face from view. He only had baggy pants on, so his mighty chest was exposed. And as soon as he had stepped out of the cave he knelt down on his knees with eyes closed.

”I'm just here to talk, Leo,” Amell said and commanded the wind to pick Leo up. And Amell raised to stone chairs directly from the ground and gestured for Leo to sit down on one. ”I heard you fought my son,” Amell said calmly, no real emotion could be identified in his tone.

”Yes, lord. I did indeed do that. It was a while ago now. I haven't seen young master Gildarts in some time now.” Leo said in a tone between lazy and respectful.

Amell smiled, ”According to Alora, he was completely demolished by you and Eleanor.” His voice was serious and Leo's body tensed up a little bit.

”That's true, my lord. If you want to punish me, I am ready!” Leo said and bowed his head, almost like he was offering it to Amell.

”Hahaha, nothing like that, my boy!” Amell broke character and gave out a hearty laughter. ”Gildarts has my own blood and magic running through his veins. I was afraid that he wouldn't ever get a real challenge from anyone.” Amell was laughing in between sentences. Leo took a few seconds to get accustomed to his God's strange behaviour and then joined in with a smile of his own.
