Chapter 11 : The Feeling of Bliss

The following day, everyone gathered at the Royal Arena to celebrate the happiest day ever.

Everyone. Yes, everyone, including Roberto Arnoldi, the Tighty Knighties, the Forest Monsters, Sea Monsters, Lava Monsters... everybody came on this very day.

The Knights and Jestro are neatly dressed in their armor as they stood in the middle of the stage.

"Citizens of Knighton," the King spoke. "We gather here to celebrate the victory of our Nexo Knights, and Jestro. " He turned around and looked at the jester.

Jestro looked puzzled. This party was meant to be for Monstrox, wasn't it? He thought.

"Jestro, brave brave Jestro, you've done a great job defending Knighton from the forces of evil lately. And because of that, I Knight you, Jestro, the Knight jester... Nononononono... Sir Jestro, the Knight jester. "

The King winked at him as he winked back. The Nexo Knights looked puzzled. It seems that King Halbert had promised Jestro about something.

"And now, I proudly announce, that Sir Jestro, the Knight Jester, is officially a member of the Nexo Knights!"

The others cheered and clapped for Jestro. The Knights gave him the loudest cheers.

"Thank you, Sire," Jestro said as he knelt down. "I pledge my weapon, and my shield, that I'll protect this beautiful Kingdom, along with the Nexo Knights, at any cause. "

"Good," King Halbert said as he raised Jestro's arm in the air.

"I'm so proud of you, Jestro, you're a great Knight! I've said this to my daughter before, and now, it's your turn," the King looked at Jestro as he said.

"Thank you, Sire," Jestro smiled.

"I...wanna ask you something, Jestro,"the King suddenly asked.

"What is it, Your Majesty?" Jestro asked curiously.

"Would you mind if you...stay in the castle with us?" The King said as he looked at Macy and Queen Halbert.

The two of them smiled as they agreed.

"Well, thank you, Sire, for the offer. But, to be honest, I'm quite fine living with Merlok. " Jestro looked at Merlok as the two of them smiled.

"You're a filial child, and I'm happy that Merlok has you as an adopted son," the King praised him. "Come to the castle frequently, will you?"

"I will, Sire," Jestro smiled as he thought about something.

"Oh, remember what we're here for, Sire..."

"Oh, yes, I'm so forgetful..." King Halbert scratched his head as he said.

"Good citizens of Knighton, " he spoke. "We gathered around here, not just for the Knighting of our Knight jester, but for another special reason. "

The King waved as Merlok and Montgomery went up the stage.

"It's Monstrox!" Jousting Bieber felt shocked.

"He looks...different," Brickney Spears looked at Monty as she said.

"This is Montgomery Necrostron DeStrox, a very famous wizard of Knighton. Everybody loved and respected him," King Halbert spoke as Monty stepped forward.

"He became an evil necromancer at some point of his life, and it is terrible. But now, he has changed completely. He has regretted for his past evil acts, like Jestro and Roberto before him. "

Jestro looked and smiled at Roberto Arnoldi, who was sitting among the audience. Roberto noticed him and smiled back.

"And now, it's time for Montgomery to give his speech," the King said as Monty walked to the middle of the stage, nervously.

"H-H-Hello, citizens of Knighton," Monty looked around nervously as everybody stared at him.

"I am Montgomery Necrostron DeStrox, formerly known as Monstrox, the evil necromancer, and I hate people calling me that. Not the front part, but the back part. I don't wanna be an evil necromancer anymore. So, I've decided to change. Merlok is my childhood friend, and mentor, maybe... Wanda too, she's a beauty. I became evil because of my pride. I was envious of Merlok for he is more lovable than I am. And I was wrong. Merlok deserved the love and respect. And he thinks that I deserved to be loved and respected as well. I am responsible for the corruption of Wanda, who happened to be Clay's mother. And I'm sorry about that. "

Everybody looked at Clay, shocked, as Clay just smiled.

" I wanted to reform, I wanted to change. I wanted to be a better person than I am now. Thank you, citizens of Knighton, for hating me. Because this helped me to recognize my mistakes and to change them. I don't wanna waste much time, so... Overall, I just hope that all of you would forgive me and accept me as a part of Knighton. This place is just so beautiful, thank you. "

Everybody clapped and cheered for him as a sign for forgiveness. Monty cried happy tears as he thanked them once more.

"Hey, Monty," Merlok called him. "Let's celebrate with some fireworks. What'd you think?"

"That would be awesome!" Montgomery said as he took out his staff (that he once gave to Jestro) and waved it. Beautiful fireworks came out of his staff as everybody watched with awe.

"My turn! My turn!" Merlok waved his staff as well.

"I'd wanna try it too!" Wanda waved her staff as well.

"Heya, big bro!" Izzy came and greeted Lance.

"Heya, little sis!" Lance greeted her back. "Enjoying the celebration?"

"Yeah," Izzy agreed. "Especially when I'm with you, brother..."

"Aww... Thanks, little sis!" Lance thanked her as he hugged her.

"No problemo," Izzy said as she hugged her brother back.

"Looks like the three of them missed their chance to perform," Clay said as he looked at Macy.

"Yeah," Macy agreed. "Oh! You said that there's something that you should've told me a long time ago. What is it, Clay?"

Clay blushed instantly.

"Well, I... I had a crush on you..." Clay admitted.

Macy looked at him, surprised.

"Really??? I do too!" Macy admitted as Clay looked at her, still blushing.

"I...don't know what to say, Macy..." Clay looked nervous. "Would you... be my girlfriend?"

"Yes! Yes! A thousand times yes!!!" Macy agreed happily. "Let's go tell my parents, I hope that they'll agree with this!"

Macy pulled Clay over to meet her parents as Merlok and the other two magicians looked at them.

"Oh dear," Merlok said. "They grow up so fast..."

"Yeah..." Wanda agreed. "Wait, brother, are you crying?!?"

"I ship it......" Merlok said as he cried happy tears.

"LOL, I do too!" Wanda admitted. "How 'bout you, Monty?"

"Heck, yeah!" Monty said as the three of them started to laugh.

Everybody is having a great time, especially the Nexo Knights, (including Jestro 😉) the King and Queen, and the three local magicians.

Knighton, will forever be in peace and harmony...
