Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1387: Ruins of Destruction (2)
"Stop this instant! Are you trying to declare war on our Democratic Union?"
After saying this, the commander even raised his hand as if he was giving an order to the soldiers to prepare themselves for a fight.
It seemed that if it was necessary, he would even give the order for them to attack me.
But even then, I just ignored him as I had Joan continue breathing her flames.
Finally, the commander couldn't take it anymore and said, "Take him down! Stop him from harming the land of our Democratic Union!"
The soldiers put down their hesitation when they were given the order.
In the end, they were soldiers and the thing that mattered most to them were their orders. So once they received their orders, it wasn't up to them to question these orders, they just had to follow them.

But before anyone could actually make a move, there was a voice that rang out.
"Enough. Stand down."
Everyone was shocked to hear this voice.
There wasn't a single person that didn't recognize this voice.
It was just that no one had expected the person this voice belonged to to actually speak up at this time.
But once he did, there was no one that dared to disobey his order and make a move.
The only thing that they could do was stand there awkwardly.
The commander was the one that finally broke the silence by asking, "Sir president, this…"
He didn't get to say much more as he saw the way that the president looked at him.
Since the president was even glaring at him like this, he had no choice but to fall silent. Though the look in his eyes made it clear that he still didn't accept what was happening right now.
It still seemed like he wanted to make a move.
But eventually, the flames stopped.
The scene that was revealed after the flames stopped caught them off guard once again.
There wasn't a single trace of the land being burnt, but at the same time, all traces of the corruption energy disappeared. There wasn't a single bit of the corruption energy that was left behind after the flames disappeared.
"What happened?" The commander couldn't help asking in a dazed voice that seemed to be speaking for all of the soldiers.
There wasn't a single one of them that seemed like they could understand what just happened. All of them had the same dazed look on their faces like the commander did.
After a long period of silence, there was a clapping sound that broke through the silence.
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the clapping and when they saw who it was that was clapping, all of them…slowly started to clap as well. It was very awkward clapping at first, but eventually they started matching the clapping of that person.
After all, the one that had been clapping was the president.
When he was done, the president came forward with a sparkle in his eyes as he looked at Joan. After approaching, he suddenly asked, "Your majesty, what is this one wyvern that you're currently on? These flames seemed quite special."
I didn't have time to answer these questions that he had, but since it was the president…
"Un, she's indeed special." I said with a simple nod.
There were people that seemed unhappy with the way that I responded, but the president just ignored them as he kept looking at Joan.
After another moment of silence, he said, "This wyvern of yours…"
"Sir president, I think that it'll only be a matter of time before the corruption energy surges again and comes back. I think that we should make the most of this opportunity to take care of the source of the corruption energy before anything else happens." I cut him off before he could finish.
The commanders and the soldiers all seemed unhappy when they heard me cut him off like this, but they couldn't say anything since it was the president that was here.
All they could do was wait for the president himself to say something.
But the president didn't say what they thought he would say.
Instead, he just said with a nod, "You're right. Go ahead and take care of the problem then. We can discuss this matter afterwards."
He even waved his hand as if he was dismissing me.
The commanders and soldiers looked like they were much happier after seeing this, but I just ignored this.
There was only one reason for us to come here and there was no time to think about the way that the president acted.
The only thing that mattered right now was reaching the ruins that the Relic of Destruction was releasing this corruption energy.
So with a nod, I waved my hand at the others that followed me which included the two popes.
This time, there was nothing that stopped us from heading forward.
Though when we did leave, there were some hostile looks that were cast in our direction. It seemed that we had left a bad impression on the soldiers of the Democratic Union.
Or it was better to say that I had left a bad impression because of what I did.
But at the same time, there was someone that had a good impression because of this.
Only it wasn't as if this good impression was a good thing.
The way that the president looked at Joan…it was clear that he wanted something from her. The way that he looked at her even seemed like the kind of look that someone would give to something that they wanted to possess.
It wasn't hard to figure out what he was thinking, but that was a matter for later.
Once we had gotten far enough from the soldiers of the Democratic Union, we wasted no time in taking off.
Before this, we hadn't flown because we were with the Democratic Union group.
But now that we didn't have to care about them, naturally we would fly to the ruins where the Relic of Destruction was.
I just hoped that it was still there.
