Chapter 91

**Tzalmon Point of View**

"This will be the last time I am giving an invite to anyone. Let me clear on this; your king shall only impose orders and shall not take one."

I grunted loudly for a minute before slamming down the remaining invites on the table. Eelk jumped a step back in fright while Azar and Gyles did not even blink however, they did shrunk their necks a little.

I plopped down in the chair and looked at my three subjects who forced me, convinced me to hand over the invites in the neighborhood.

A pure kind of hatred spread through me when I looked at the three.

"Majesty, we don't know who made you angry to such an extent." Azar asked, threading smoothly on the subject.

"Don't even remind me of her. Do you know the old lady from the Cruz family?" Azar and Eelk nodded as a sudden light of realization was seen in their eyes while Gyles only looked even more confused.

"You both knew what a hardheaded lady she is." I complained.

"Please calm down, Majesty. Old Lady Cruz was supposedly always a hard nut to crack and a weird person. Please do not spoil your royal mood because of a mortal woman." Eelk tried to pacify me but the more I think about that old lady, the more I think she was destined to be my mortal enemy.

That old one spoiled my mood completely by appearing twice in front of me today. Not only was my brain eaten raw at her residence but also at her in-laws residence too.

When I went to send the invite to Miller family, that old Cruz - nay, that old curse, was already standing there, scowling down at me as if I stole her wealth.

Apparently, that was her daughter-in-law's maternal family house and that family loves to follow the Cruz family in everything. For some weird reason, the Miller family loves to copy everything that Cruz family does and are quite proud of it too.

I say, is laziness and hardheadedness so amazing to copy? Is it some kind of trend or something?

And so, in front of Miller residence, I had to hear ten minutes of absolute nonsense from the old lady curse. After ten minutes of providing me with nothing but headache, she snatched the invite card from me and said she would hand it over to the Miller's.

"I want to know what that old lady eats. She doesn't look like a person who is already half foot into death." How can a person so old be so active?

If she wants to she can even lift a whole cart of heavy iron without sweating at all. I did not even see such a person in mystical realms.

"Should I just end her secretly, Majesty?" Gyles, who was silent until now, asked.

One look at him, anyone can tell that he was itching to beat and kill someone. He was so used to all the fighting that coming to the mortal world is like giving a bunch of vegetables to a lion.

"You can't, General Gyles. This is not our kingdom and Lady Cruz did not really do anything that would award her with death." Azar reprimanded Gyles with a frown.

"That's right. If you continue to be blind to this change of culture, then you might suffer even more, General Gyles. I really wish you could change according to your surroundings." Eelk continued in a slightly frightened tone.

The anger on Gyles face only increased by several folds after hearing Azar and Eelk's advice.

Even I am forced to tone myself down in this world, what is he frowning about? Did he notice how much I changed in these past five months in the mortal world?

"Enough Gyles. You will not do anything stupid. Now report me about the tasks you were give."

Half an hour of discussion, the next course of actions are planned. Gyles and Eelk will continue working on the academy while Azar's sole responsibility is to look for Eblilis.

Since the opening day was getting closer, all the four of us are on our foot all day and night. To avoid the bunch of girls flocking around me, I chose to work at the academy, before and after it opens.

I was initially thinking to just be the owner and look after the management but after experiencing a new world of madness in just a small neighborhood, I realized the power of consuming oneself with work.

Here, it is necessary for the business to be registered with the local authorities. Being the owner, I had already made several trips to the law office.

Tomorrow will be the opening of the academy and today I am here again at the law office to get few more necessary permissions for tomorrow.

These past few trips to the authorities, there were a couple of officers here that I got on good page with. Although they are not high in rank, it could be said we are well acquainted now.

There is Lieutenant Allen, a thirty year old law enforcer who helped me with all the paperwork regarding the academy, 'Thunder's'.

Then there is Captain Cruise who is a forty something years old kind man who started off as a detective and reached the chair of captain in less than ten years.

While Lieutenant Allen is serious and passionate about his job as a law enforcer, Captain Cruise is a soft hearted and a kind old man which is completely different from his personality when he was a detective.

"Here it is, permission for fireworks is granted but it should not cross the limit and should be done under great safety measures." The Captain signed the permission letter and pushed it towards me.

I smiled politely and expressed my thanks to him. I am not a King here, at least not for now, so being blindly arrogant will lead to only destruction. Also both Cruise and Allen are pretty good people so granting them an honor to be my acquaintances is not bad.

"This is the invite card for the opening ceremony, Captain. Do attend the party with your family. Like I said, there is some good gym equipment suited to you law enforcers too." Although Eelk did invite him, as my first acquaintance, I also have a responsibility to invite him and Allen personally.

"Um hmm, I will come by for sure and so will Lieutenant Allen. Right, did you find your wife yet?" When I heard him asked about Eblilis, I sighed and shook my head lightly.

"Not yet. It's been months and I still couldn't reach even the shadows of my wife and son." When I was here for the first time to get the approval for business, the police did a deep background checking on all the four of us and interrogated us about our purpose for settling down in Tucson city.

It was then that I confessed to him that I was from a very faraway country and I was here to search for my wife and son. I told them that due to a misunderstanding, my wife got heartbroken and left me with my son so I am here clear it up, apologize and get the both back into my life.

A half truth but it worked since it's the truth after all.

"Why don't you give me her name, I will see if I find her if possible!" My eyes brightened immediately hearing his kind suggestion.

That's right, since he is a police, he should have greater chance of finding people than I or Azar do.

"Acacia Dawn Winters. That's my wife's name and my son is Igses Dawn Ebernus." I told him the names immediately without hesitating for a second.

If I can find them soon, then I can get them soon too. However, this time, I shall do it on her terms. I will not make the same estimations I made in the past.

Estimations, not mistakes, because I was not wrong in wanting to keep her with me. She was and is my wife.

However, my estimations did go wrong as some of my calculations are not correct. But this time, I will make sure I satisfy her and take her back to the kingdom by her will.

"Acacia, Dawn..." Captain Cruise started to mull over the names.

"Did you hear that name anywhere, Captain?" I asked expectantly.

"I think so but I'm unable to remember it clearly. Give me some time and I will look into it." The Captain said and assured me that he will definitely look into the details.

"Although I'm curious, Mr. Ebernus."

"Curious?"

"You are a rich and an amiable man, how come your wife ran away from you? And you say it is your mistake which baffles me as well." The Captain asked inquisitively.

If I was of some ordinary origin and birth, then I would've thought Captain was asking me about the details out of concern for me. However, being a deity and a King for centuries now, I can clearly distinguish doubt from concern.

"I - I took some decisions without taking her stand into consideration. For a woman who was so independent and passionate, my decisions made it harder for her to pursue what she liked so she chose to leave me alone and took my son away with her."

"And you are not angry with her?" Doubt is practically slipping out of his pores.

"It would be a lie if I said I wasn't. But I understand her take as well." If I said I wasn't angry at all, then it would bring a series of unfound doubts.

So being a normal man with normal emotional state is better than making myself magnanimous or otherwise in such situation.

Finding Eblilis is the priority here!
