Chapter 16.2
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I WAS just staring at the shining moon above. Weeks from now and it will be full, the time when we will do our plan, attacking the auction hall in Farianio. I was seated on one of the logs. Silence filled the night. People in our hideout are preparing to sleep now that the night is getting deeper as moments pass by. The wind blew so cold that I started to hug myself. I just sigh before I stand and decide to just call it a night too and sleep.
I was walking through the dark part of the path. I got halted when I heard a voice coming from a nearby spot. I cannot hear what she was talking about but I am sure that was her voice I can hear.
"Adrina?" I called as I approached the spot. With the help of the moon's light, I saw her standing there with a blank expression on her face, holding a piece of an unknown black flower. A kind I have never seen in my entire life.
"Where did you get that?" I asked as I heightened my senses, feeling some presence nearby.

"WHO WAS that?" Matias said when he reached me. "What happened?""Another visitor tonight," I said as my jaw tightened."A visitor?"I averted my glare at him. "From now on, there will be someone who will guard every night in this place. Make sure that this incident will never happen again in the future. I do not want any visit at this godly hour of the day," I said and turned my back at him.If only he woke and went to me earlier, we would have captured that man. He will always come whenever he is not needed."Is it not the only one you fought? Who sent them?" he asked while tailing me.I quickly turned to him and glared, again. "Tell me, who did they come here for, Matias? This never happened in the past because they are all afraid to be here. Who are they after they have been brazen to send men here?" I sarcastically said.He stopped for a moment and realized the answer for his question. "The two kids.""Adrina," I sai

When I shifted my attention to Castor, he was now standing near the table and holding the candle flame remover. Using his power, he transformed it into a sword. I smiled at my new discovery. So he can change the shape of anything he holds? Interesting."I did not fancy the gift that you have rewarded me that is why I ended up here personally to tell you," I said."What are you saying?! How can I do that when I do not even know your identity?" he said, wondering as he charged an attack on me.I quickly dodged it and said, "You are so slow, Castor " mocking him. That caused him to get angry and charged again, blindly.All I do is dodge all of his attacks until he gets tired. I can feel Evina trying to use her powers again so I spinned quickly. I intentionally got my sword to hit the only candle lit on the room before it slashed her in the arms.Based on their reaction, there are seemingly other persons involved in giving us visitors in the midd

I HALTED scooping water on the creek and looked into the part of the woodswhere trees are all full when I sensed someone looking at me. I put the jar down and went there.My brows furrowed when I found a familiar horse. It took me another step to find who the owner is. I did not expect to see anyone here at this time of the day. He had his grip unto the lead of the horse, seemingly to place it there at the tree.His lop-sided grin greeted me with utmost enthusiasm while he bathed in the shock expression on my face. I eyed him from head to toe to make sure I was seeing it correctly and that was really him, in front of me. I cannot escape feeling attracted to his looks and charm, his posture and everything, as if feeling bewitched.When I regained my senses, I approached him and hit him in the chest."What are you doing here?" I asked, nervously eyeing the surroundings for any presence. I was relieved when I got none so I returned my eye to him.

I put the jar next to the other jars nearby and then went to the armory, inspecting it. She followed me and got a sword from there, not minding how heavy the blade she chose. "You are the one who is most skilled when it comes to battling using a blade, teach me," she said, commanding. She tried to swing the blade upward but it did not reach that high. She only knew how to arch a bow because that is the only weapon Hamil taught her to use before he left for a mission. I know that she is too young to even hold a sword and that is not appropriate as her height and weight is still not improving as of now. She is not even on a level with the other children here at her age. I got the hilt from her grip and brought it back to where she got it. I gently held both of his hands and stared at

I STOPPED in front of the palace when I saw him going out from the high gates. His eyes immediately met mine so I smiled at him sweetly. He flinched a little when he realized that he was seeing me. Perhaps that I have done a better job at making myself more pretty than my usual.I spinned a couple of times for him to see my whole being. I do not have a cloak that covers me and I fixed my hair. I even have a flower ornament on my ear.He speedily went to me and held both of my cheeks, landing a quick peck on my lips. My face seems to have been heated because of what he did in front of the other creatures that are lurking outside the palace."You are so beautiful. I apologize for not being able to help myself not to kiss you." He inched again his face on mine but I backed away.

I took the two purses of gold coins inside my bag that hanging from my waist. One is the payment for the weapons that he will buy for me and the other one is for him which was from what I picked earlier to an unknown wanderer."This purse is the payment for the weapons that I needed while the other one is for you," I said as I handed him both bags.He opened it and smiled when he saw what was inside."We have no problem here. When do you need the weapons?""The next day. I will have Matias to meet you. He will be the one to take the weapons from you." I eyed the surroundings to make sure no one heard nor even saw us while we talked."Rest assured. I will immediately deliv

I CANNOT erase the smile on my lips even until I got back to our hideout. Looks like my eyes do not have enough of glancing at the ring in my finger given by Sevasti from time to time. It fits me perfectly, like it was made for my finger. What a glorious thing."Matias!" I blurted out of shock when he suddenly appeared in front of me. He followed my gaze to my finger so I slightly hid my hand behind me. The place is dark so I bet he did not see it. The thing that caught my eyes so bad I cannot help but stare at it in awe. "What do you need?" I asked with a timid smile on my face.He stared at me for a while before speaking."The plans about the weapons, why did they change?" he asked, seriously.My sight averted to Vivi who is s

HOLDING Adrina's hand, we walked hand in hand by the path going to the nearby falls. She forced me to go take a bath with her so I just followed her because the training for the day was done too.I furrow my brows when I feel something in the surroundings. Danger. I immediately removed the sheath of my sword. Good thing I have been bringing this with me wherever I go.After some time, enemies lurking in the background reveal themselves and surround us. There are more than ten of them. My eyes sharpened at the sight of him in the middle, Castor."We meet again, Miss," he said, grinning.I tightly gripped Adrina's hand and hid her behind me."It was a pleasure to meet you again, for the second time, Mister," I said, smiling with my eyes still sharp, looking at him. "I did not expect the gifts that you have sent me here." I added as I glanced at every one of them in my line of sight. They are not like the ones I have fought in Adrina's house. Looks li

Sevasti's Point of View I WATCH her in the middle of the forest, here in Kozania. She was sitting in front of the clear water of the stream, the thing that is between us. I was so far away from her the reason why I think she did not notice me. Also, she seemed to be out of it and was thinking deeply to even notice my presence. She had been here earlier in the afternon and now it was getting dark but her position did not seem to change even in the slightest. I exhaust my eyes just staring at her beauty, at her hair wavy every time the wind blew. She is dressed better now than before. Truly, she became the queen of Kozania. She had achieved her dream of rebuilding her kingdom, and I am happy for her. Even if it costs the death of my father and us losing the ownership of the throne in Farianio. It was never ours to begin with so it was only just for it to be returned to its rightful owner. This is my only free time to stare at her because as soon as she feels my presence, I will immed

I LOOKED at Adrina when we reached Farianio's palace. Tonight, to be sure to really surprise them with our attack, and another is for them not to be ready so that we can easily conquer this kingdom.Everyone is in the dark, hiding and waiting for the signal so that they can show up to the opponents. We use the sturdy weapons made by the Verdantes.It also took a long time before Dardo made his decision but in the end he chose to be my ally. I gave him a chest of gold which he really enjoyed. But he did not join our attack, considering the welfare of his kinsmen. I did not force him either. We have enough weapons from him and I think that is enough.He nodded at me so I smiled and turned to Vivi."Vivi," I told her. He flew away from my shoulder and fly freely through the air."Start the attack! Start the attack!" he shouted repeatedly with his shrill voice until it reached all our comrades.I pulled the sword out of its sheath and jumped fro

"I LOVE you so much, Aliara! And yes, you are wrong if that is what you are thinking about me. You are the only woman I have ever loved in my whole life. The woman I will continue to love and will love until the last of my breaths," he said, seemingly trying to make me understand what is being said by him as the heaviness of his breath intensified. He looked down and when he spoke again, calmly. "I am sorry that I am not with you in all your suffering. I am not there when you need me. I am not there when you are looking for me. But, Aliara, I really want to go and see you at times you want me to be there. I want to save and protect you but my father always stops me. He does everything just so I cannot see you." His mouth clenched his jaws and turned to face me again, his eyes full of anger, longing and sadness. "I really love you, Aliara. That will never change. I hope you will forgive me for all my shortcomings. And please, do not take away your love for me. I cannot afford to lose

He also smiled and seemed defiant. "How can I not know that there was such a commotion that day. The rebels that were a threat to the peace of Farianio escaped. The fairies only saved you, the reason why you are still alive today. Who would have thought that even the fairies were on your side? Maybe you really ought to live quite a long life.""It will still take a long time because I am barely done with everything I have to do." I moved closer to him, he did not budge and just stayed in his place. "But how do you make sure they are fairies? You just heard that they can control plants, do you not? You know it was not just fairies that had the ability to control plants."His forehead furrowed, wondering, and eventually that was replaced by panic."But--how ..."I proudly smiled and nodded softly at him. Agreeing with what is currently in his mind right now. Yes, Dardo, Hederon. They are not yet dead. They are just hiding from our sight. And now, it is time

WHEN Adrina and I met again, she gave me another hope to continue what I had started, revenge on Henicio. She talked to me a few times about it but when I asked her why she was encouraging me, she did not answer and in fact, changed the subject.Now, I am standing in the middle of the forest while looking at the moon as I realized why she wanted me to kill Hencio. She wants revenge because of Matias. It is not hidden from my knowledge that she loves the man and even though I did not see her grief at his death, I know how much she felt at that moment.Perhaps, she has not forgotten yet. She has not lost her anger for the creatures that were the root of all of this. Especially with Hencio. He is the one who is responsible for all of this so he is the one to be avenged.I turned to Zalina who was by my side, she was Adrina's mother but she seemed to have aged just a little ahead of me when it came to appearance. Adrina and I were with her when I went to the V

We now face the creatures who were watching. The reactions they show vary but curiosity prevails. I closely watched them as the soldiers adjusted the rope at my height. That only faded when I heard Vivi’s loud whistling in the air. He circled the creatures in front of us before approaching them. He did not stop flying, but his eyes were focused on me.A soldier pulled me up again to attach the rope to my neck, I just let him do that, still looking at Vivi. Earlier, he had been quiet all the way down as he followed us and I know he was sad now as he witnessed my fate. Her chirps seemed to be crying as I heard it so I also felt sad. I will leave him. It was just now that thought crossed my mind. That I will be leaving him.I smiled at him to convey that it was all right. That he did not have to cry and be sad. I know he can do everything without me. She can find a new friend to love and take care of him like I did. Otherwise, he will join other birds and live

THE SURROUNDINGS were bright as the sun had already risen when we reached the center of Farianio. The creatures parted to give way to us, curiosity was written in their eyes as they looked. The soldiers were in front and on our side, watching us closely as if we could still escape in this condition. Aside from chaining our hands, we were already tired and weak from the long journey. And most of us were still wounded.I could no longer walk properly because of my trembling leg. The aching wound in my thigh seemed to spread all over my body. My sweat was dripping, my throat was dry and I was definitely pale because of the blood I had lost.These stupid soldiers do not even give us a drop of water."Aliara," Casias called, he was just next to me. Hands were also tied and had nothing to do but obey these soldiers. He called me several times but I never looked back at him.This stupid traitor! He still really wants to talk to me."Do not talk to me," I

I nodded and stomped on his foot. His jaws clenched and we applied more strength to our swords, still stuck to the air. I quickly backed away and struck the sword I was holding on his stomach but he immediately dodged so it just touched his clothes.He gripped his sword tightly and successively rushed at me but I avoided everything as he continued to retreat. When he stopped, I turned around and rushed first, with each strike of my sword he shielded it with his weapon. However, I hit him several times with my arm and hand. But because he was strong he was not shaken by those measly attacks.Annoyed, I blew a massive puff of air when he kicked me on the side, I backed away and stopped. My eyes were firm as I turned to him. I was ready to rush again but I stopped when an arrow hit my arm causing me to release the sword I had in my grip.My mouth stopped at the pain I felt here. I did not notice it coming! However I no longer paid attention to it when Favier rushed
Aliara: The Kingdom Chapter 79.1
"YOU ARE a princess, Aliara?" Rowan spoke again but I ignored him.And since Casias was also not surprised by that, it was only a fact that Favier was stating the truth, that he was affiliated to the palace.I smirked after a while, sarcastically. There are many questions in my mind but I am slowly coming to an understanding on what is happening now. They have known each other for a long time, even before I came here to Ohayas. It was very clear that Casias had betrayed me, he pretended to know nothing about me, that he did not know me. Perhaps that fool Henicio is watching over me. And this is the right time to kill me.Am I quick to trust so I am always betrayed by the people around me?I want to laugh at myself for that question.But even if he deceived me now I do not intend to question him. It also does not matter if I ask him why he did this to me. All of them wants only my life.And I will not just give my life without resisting.
