Chapter 56.1
"BASTARD!" I glared at him as I dodged his attack, kicking him in the stomach just to make some distance away from me. With his next assault, I walked past him and thrusted my blade behind him.
When I looked at Leep, I saw his opponent holding him by the neck, exposing him to the fire that was now spreading through the area. I dropped the sword I was holding almost immediately along with the body of my dead opponent.
"Leep!" I tried to run as fast as I could just to get him but it was too late.
"Princess!" he shouted before he was eaten by the fire that was consuming the palace. I almost got my hands on him but I was late.
With widened eyes, I tried to follow him through the fire when a musculine hand stopped me. Looking at it, I saw Matias.
I gasped for air like it was strange for me. I cannot believe what happened in front of my eyes. I was almost there. I am so near and yet I still cannot save him. Our distance was just like a strand of hair but

Matias gave me his hand to help me stand, which I warmly accepted. I almost stumble when I finally stand because I can feel my knees weakening as it started feeling exhausted with the fight earlier and with what I am seeing around me. My eyes were left following Adrina because of the two bodies that he left on the ground for it was too late to save them. Their families were now mourning near their bodies.I tightly gripped Matias' arm because of the heaviness I felt in my heart. I do not like what I am seeing, even the wailing that I am hearing. It makes me feel like wanting to disappear instantly right here from where I stood just to escape this situation I am in."What would we do now, Matias?" I asked in my most vulnerable voice as I forced my tears not to fall from my eyes when I shifted my gaze onto him. "Do you think that if I had gotten here much earlier, we would never have suffered like this? We would never lose our people?"I am the one who rules

I WIPED the tears that escaped my eyes while I stared at the fire that was consuming the body of our dead comrades. There were seven of them and three of them were just on their teen stage in life. I regretted that I came on that scene late to help them. If only I was there when the attack started, perhaps I can build a plan for us to do, a strategy to easily defeat our enemy.That has already happened and I cannot do anything about it now. This regret of mine can never give them back to us. I just need to accept the fact that they were gone even if it was too hard.I looked towards Matias who was staring at me for quite some time now. Of all the people in here, he was the one who knew me the most so I know he knows what I am feeling as of this moment.“We need to find another place to hide,” I whispered to the air which I knew he could hear.He nodded at me gently without looking. “Indeed. For the safety of our people.”

AFTER I put what I had stolen in my bag, I looked around. I felt like someone was watching me from somewhere I cannot determine in which part of the market he was in. I did not feel that when I set foot here. Most probably, just another opponent.“Make sure not to make yourself known to me if you still want to keep that useless life of yours,” I said in a low voice.I whistled silently to call for Vivi, whom I knew, was just around the area.“Try to find the one who has been following me,” I said, still with a low tone as he approached me.“Follow me, Miss! Follow me!” he said as he flapped his wings, flying towards some direction.I resumed walking, finding some prospect I can rob.It was about an hour that passed when I looked at the crowded parts of this market. From where I stood, I could see the sea. I can only see a fragment of the sea because of the trees that were blocking me from the sight but it

I PAUSED for a moment when I beat the two opponents in front of me, turning to Elana who was watching from the side. She looked at me sharply so I smiled at her to annoy her more before I fought with her men again.They took turns rushing at me, some of them were so good that I could not knock them down so I chose the weak ones to lessen them a little. I slumped down just to be hit by the whip of one of them. When he tried to hit me again with it, I grabbed it and pulled hard.With a shocked face, he moved towards me and that made me smile as I kicked him forcefully causing him to be sent flying onto the huge tree nearby. With the force of his impact on it, he immediately lost consciousness.After that, they rushed one after the other, so I prepared the sword, raising it up into the air and turned quickly so that they could be wounded altogether at the same time. I smiled as the three walked away to take care of their wounds. I took a deep breath and charged at

She threw the weapon she was holding and touched my shoulder. The soldering I felt doubled and it seemed like any moment I would faint. My glare deepened on her when I saw his grin. This fool of a woman! "Even though I do not want to get my hands dirty, it looks like it was really inevitable for you to get lost in the path of Sevasti and me," she said and brought her face close to mine. "This will be the end of you," she added, calmly. I laughed at her even though I was feeling weak. "Once I get out of your grasp, it would be you who would be killed first between the two of us," I grunted as I struggled on her grip. Even speaking seemingly drains my energy. She just smiled as if to say that it would not happen. She removed her hand from my arm and took a dagger hidden inside her garment. I looked at her more deeply. If only my stare was lethal, she would have fallen to the ground earlier. She was about to stab me when an arrow flew towards her

I JUST watched him as he continued to paddle, boarded on a small boat from a small island near the kingdom of Farianio. He took me for a walk because of the beautiful scenery there, making me so entertained that it was almost dark before both of us decided to go on the boat.And now it was night time because he was slow. But that was somewhat okay with me because we get to spend more time together. It was noon when I left our hideout but they knew I was just going around to different towns and markets to steal so they would not look for me if I were to be late. The reason why I am also not worried while I am with this man. My man.He looked at the ocean that seemed endless so I watched him freely, as time went by, he became more handsome in my eyes. With a slight frown on his forehead, I smiled. Whatever reaction he showed did not lessen his handsomeness. I think it has increased even more as we spend some more time together.His hair was fixed upwards now so ma

IN THE MIDDLE of the night I woke up to Vivi's shrill and repeated voice, calling my name. I immediately got up and frowned, turning to him."Why, Vivi?" I asked, puzzled."Bad news! Bad news! Adrina!" he replied, causing me to slowly wake up from my dazed self.My eyes widened and immediately ran out of my small room. My companions who had traveled to go to the market to shop for our supplies greeted me with a different scene. Adrina was being led by two of our comrades, who were immediately approached by Matias.With my speed it was just an instant I was next to them, surprised when I got to see Adrina. Weak. Her hair was slightly disheveled and her lips were pale. She was the only one who was in that condition among all of them so I already had an assumption as to what happened to her.If the enemy attacked them they should all be wounded but no."Adrina," I said lowly, turning to the two who were leading her. "Take her straight to her ro

I FOCUSED on Adrina's wounds and I did not like what I was seeing in her. As time went on, my anger built up. Thinking how I was going to retaliate against that stupid woman.I will not allow it to end this way. I will never allow her to do what she wants with us without us getting back at her. A warrior does not simply bend its knee on someone just like that.She was the first one to charge at me so she just deserved it. She has no right to take her revenge.I left the room even before Dana finished applying the herbs to Adrina's wounds. Adrina did not notice that I had left the room because she had her eyes closed and it seemed like she would lose consciousness in a few moments."Aliara," Matias called as he followed me. "Where are you going?" he asked curiously when he saw that the road to my room was not the one I was taking.I stopped and turned to face him blankly. "Why are you following me? Rest in your room as well.""I saw the look
