Blessings of The Sun Chapter 56. A Rotten Soul (1)
It’s been a couple of months again after Gray obtained his True Blessing. Now, he could control his power better than before. If Leon was knocked down by the clash, he would summon a soft barrier beneath his friend.“It’s crazy outside at the border.”Xion and Ketih just came back from scouting the area. Lately they kept doing that, so that when the time came, when the enemy came, they were prepared and could easily leave the city.The five of them sat down in their small, shared house. They were about to make their next moves. “The north towns are already occupied by the enemy. Thousands of soldiers are matching towards the gate at this moment, so freaking near.” Keith added grimly.“From what we’ve heard, Adam already dispatched almost his entire army to protect the gate. Probably hundreds of thousand,” Xion explained.“Why they’re focusing too much on the north gate?” Leon questioned them curiously. “Isn’t that too much risks to take? What about the south border or the east one?”“

After the men came back from supply run, Xion announced some bad news, “Adam is one paranoid man. Now, the city’s full of soldiers too. When we’re leaving tomorrow, I guess it’ll be with hundreds of people.”Keith rubbed his beard tiredly, which he started grew a month ago, “Great. Be careful not to lose each other, or even worse, lose our money.” They could see the kids were nervous, but there’s nothing they could do about it. Sierra nodded; she already walked with refugees hundreds of times, but this time, with the kids along, she felt uneasy too.She exhaled and announced, “Time to sleep. We’ll need that energy tomorrow to walk with the crowds.”Everyone agreed with her, and they entered their own rooms. Leon with Gray, Keith with Xion, and Sierra alone.“Hey, Gray,” Leon laid down on his bed, staring at the ceiling.“Hm? What’s wrong, Leon?” The other murmured quietly.“Now that you’re stronger, you should be able to protect Sierra, right?”Gray chuckled, still half asleep, “I hop

No one dared to let down their guard even for a second. Sierra was tense, she couldn’t stop herself from pacing back and forth in the damp cave. The smoke still rose above and they knew, morning would come soon since the sky was getting clearer and stars were already gone.Gray was worried sick about Leon. How could the other just leave without waking him up? What’s on his clever mind? In front of the kid, Keith stood close the fire, realizing the tense situation, he spoke, “Don’t worry too much. If Xion said he’d come, he’s going to be here.”Sierra suddenly heard a crack of twig; thus, she quickly raised her bow to the sound. Keith also drew out his sword. The black silhouette turned out to be someone they familiar with. However, he was alone.“Xion,” Gray gasped when he saw the handsome man covered with dirt and blood. He stumbled along, and Keith quickly aided his friend. “Where’s Leon?” Sierra trembled a little when she asked the man.Xion shook his head, then when he sat down, h

“Huh,”Sierra pondered as she stopped at the alleyway. Watching some drawings on the wall that usually would catch the attentions of those bounty hunters. “What?” Xion noticed that the woman suddenly stood silently, then he walked to her.Naturally, his line of sight also fell to the drawings. “Damn it,” He cursed. Sierra turned to him as she grinned, “Your first time become criminal?”Xion cleared his throat as he felt his cheeks flushed red. Then he stammered, “Of course, it is!” Looking at her calm face, Xion suddenly got it, “Wait. You ever became criminal too?”“Yeah, so many times actually.” Sierra suddenly smiled fondly, as if she was reminiscing something. “I was part of Habelon Liberation Army. In case you don’t know, it’s—”“What?! Are you serious?” Xion cut her fast. Eyes sparkled with stars in the night. It was his first time became so excited over something in a long time. “That’s the 10 years of war, Habelon vs. Beilgadi! It’s happened two hundred years ago; you’re telli
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 60. No Luck
“Apparently, Fallton already pledged their loyalty to Kingdom of Bealaris a week ago.”Xion furrowed his eyebrows as he watched the map on his hand. Being fugitives, the group couldn’t rent an inn on every town they reached. Thus, they had to make a camp outside in the woods, which really annoyed Sierra.“How many cities or towns left?” Keith asked the other as he added another X mark to Fallton.“Probably eight. But they’re not strong enough to hold on their own if Bealaris decided to attack. And, we don’t have time and energy to travel to those places.”Sierra crossed her arms as she peeked at the map. “Huh,” She muttered.“What?” Xion asked her.“Here,” She pointed at a town, “Iris.”“Yeah?”“Let’s go there,” She looked up to stare at Xion. The handsome man was confused, “There’s nothing in Iris, Sierra.”“There is,” She raised her eyebrows, clearly ready for an argument. Xion was tired as he rubbed his eyes, “How could you know about it?”“Let’s say that I have a good intuition,”
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 61. Iris
Gray wasn’t the only one who thought that Sierra was going to put them into troubles.Stammering, Keith stepped forward, “Sir, I’m so sorry. She didn’t mean to call you a kid. We-uh-she-uh… Xion, a little help here!” The last sentence came as a whisper to his friend. Unfortunately, Xion didn’t know what to do. He just stared at the woman with amusement and also confusion along with the rest of guards and maids in the hall.Their face showed so many different expressions; they might be better dead right now.Instead, Sierra shook her head, and she pulled Keith back by the collar, “Stupid, bear.”The mayor still walked shakily towards her. It was clear that sooner or later, he couldn’t walk anymore. Then, Sierra stepped fast, but steady to the man. With a smile, the old man opened his arms and the woman fell into the warm hug.“Oh my god! She’s Mary?” Gray heard the nearest maids gossiping. “Wasn’t she supposed to be 90 years old? How come she still pretty and young?”“She’s Mary? Mayor
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 62. Not too Sweet Candies
“Here you go,” Xion suddenly handed Sierra two pieces of small candies. He just came back from a long travel, but his first thought was to find the woman and gave her this little gifts.“What is this?” She raised her eyebrows, clearly amused by this behaviour. “A candy from South City,” The handsome man shrugged as he watched the soldiers that were marching passed them.They had spent almost a month in Iris, helping the mayor to find more allies. After Xion came back to the city, it was Keith and Gray’s turn to depart to a small island east of Iris. Sierra was reluctant to let the kid go without her, but instead, Gray insisted to travel with Keith. He said that he needed to train with him.“They’re going to be fine,” Xion blurted out before he thought about it. “I mean, Keith can be annoying, but he is really responsible, especially knowing that you’ll burn him alive if something happened to Gray.”She snorted, unconsciously peeling off the paper that held the candy and stuffed it int
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 63. Complicated Person (1)
Sierra smile defeatedly by Gray’s innocence and persistence. “What can I say, he’s a young leaf,” She whispered it to the other two men as they built their tents.Keith also laughed fondly, “He really has an insane amount of hopes; really reminding me of a certain person.”“Who?” Sierra curiously questioned.“Just somebody who came from a small village,” Keith answered it ambiguously while grinning at Xion. The handsome man only shook his head, “Shut up and go search for the kid. He’s been gone for too long.”“Huh, maybe he has to dump the big thing,” Keith shrugged his shoulders carelessly. Sierra tapped his wide back and said, “Well, there’s nothing wrong with checking.”Keith grunted as he walked away. Xion rolled his eyes, “He always acts like a big baby when it’s not a life-threatening situation.”Sierra raised her eyebrows, “But you’re putting up with his acts, you know that right?”Xion chuckled, “Yeah, he’s the only one who can put up with my stubbornness,” Then he stared at t

While Gray and Zed had their sudden meeting with the strategist, Sierra purposefully stood outside the castle to wait for Xion. She was embarrassed, but somehow, she felt that she was supposed to do this and comfort the man. And she didn’t regret it. The moment she saw Xion, the other’s face beamed with relief and happiness. They hugged and kissed for a short time as Sierra rubbed his back. “You thought I was dead?” She tried to lighten up the situation a little. Xion snorted, “Yeah…” He paused as he stared at Sierra’s face, “But I think I’m stupid to think about it. You’re probably the strongest being ever, you know that, right?” His expression was tired, definitely lack of sleep, but his smile was bright; his voice showed a clear proudness. Sierra didn’t want to imagine what happened with this man while she’s gone for a moment. They talked for a moment while holding hands. Xion cleared his throat, “Hey, Sierra. I need to talk to you.” She titled her head, confusion was appeared o

“Gray!” Sierra grabbed Gray’s shoulder and squeezed it gently. The soldiers already started scattered around and broke the formations; even the mages couldn’t protect them from the monsters below.“Argh!” Someone got sucked below, and Sierra knew that person had already gone. Amidst the chaos, Sierra could feel a familiar power around them; just like the last time when she felt Gray’s True Blessing on the underground. And she finally understood, why the barrier around, that was summoned almost perfectly didn’t work.“It’s a True Blessing!” Sierra yelled as she kicked her leg from monster’s grab. “What?” Gray was confused. “It’s an Earth True Blessing. That’s why the barrier won’t work. It could pierce anything! We have to fall back!”Gray quickly understood and he screamed, “Fall back to the north gate!” The soldiers were relying the message to each other. Those who cherished their lives quickly abandoned the formation and ran. The earth kept trembling and people started to sway and f

“That idiot!” Sierra snapped at the news. “I can’t believe he reject it. I wonder what his mother said to him!”Nevertheless, the next day, they marched to the gate to retake the capital. It wasn’t a hard fight because for the first time ever, they won by numbers. The enemy also lacked their leaders so it was pretty easy to break into their defence and controlled the castle. Many of the soldiers were surrendering as they wanted to trade it with their lives.Gray nodded appreciatively as they surrendered. “It’s nice not to kill someone,” He grinned to Sierra at the main room.From that day, the they took back State of Etherna’s freedom. People in the capital were cheering as they were freed from the oppressions. However, Gray’s liberation army still couldn’t relax at all. They still had the north area to retake and Kingdom of Bealaris to attack. The north gate was still shut tight.Then, Walter advised that they took a break after the long, continues fights. They also had to reunite wi

“How’s the kid?” Sierra crossed her arms impatiently in front Gray’s bedroom. A healer just came out, and he nodded his head in delight. “Lady Sierra, you don’t have to worry about anything. Thanks to his Blessing, the explosion didn’t do much damage to his body. Right now, he’s just sleeping.”Hearing the news, Sierra huffed a relief breath. Then, she decided to let the kid rest and find Xion. Frankly speaking, she didn’t do much at this fight because her main task was to defend the fortress. That’s why, she was in a good condition and everyone relied on her more because she was the only general who still alive and in perfect condition.As far as she knew, Keith was passed out from massive blood loss. That’s why, she moved to find the other one. Thankfully, Xion didn’t hurt that bad. He was wrapped in bandages, but he was practically fine.Seeing Sierra’s presence in the yard made his cold face cracked into a warm expression. He waved at her, and Sierra also smiled softly. “How’s you
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 72. Path to Freedom (2)
Everyone became aware how dangerous the situation was. Gray frowned and cold sweats already dripped down from his forehead. Sierra quickly took control, “Okay, kid. Don’t force yourself. You still have to fight at the frontline. Let us handle it.”Gray bit his bottom lip; but then he nodded. The mages were ready as they chanted the spell. “On three, just let your power go.”“One…”“Two…”“Three!”Gray’s let go of his Blessing, but the lightnings were still under control. “See? We’re good at what we’re doing.” Sierra smiled. Since the first wall of protection had fell, Gray quickly moved to join his own troops.“Lady Sierra,” Walter appeared behind her, nodding appreciatively, “You really level up your troops abilities.”Sierra snorted at the words, and she grabbed her bow. This time, she didn’t bother to hide the exquisite design of it, making the archers stared with envy. “It’s family heirloom,” She added awkwardly.“Archers! Prepare your arrow!”Thousand of arrows were prepared, poi
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 71. Path to Freedom (1)
It had been six months since Don departed from the fortress. The good news was he never failed to bring back victories. And the bad news? There’re so much things going on inside the fortress; refugees, soldiers, volunteers, travellers, even merchants, all came to them since Sierra had lifted her maze spell.Now, the fortress became really lively with crowds. Sierra could only shake her heads from the noise. “You really hate people, huh?” Xion chuckled as they stood at the third floor, staring at the yard.Both of them just got back from separate missions and now, they decided to rest together. Hearing the statement, Sierra couldn’t help, but smile softly, “No, it’s not like that. This view somehow reminds me the last time I’m here.”She paused and her eyes wondered longingly. Xion just stared at her, savouring the beauty. “This place used to be like this too. Buzzling with merchants, and people… I just hope this will last; now that we’ve made our location known.”Xion smiled too; thes
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 70. Regarding Leon (3)
“Bring it on!!” Gray roared as he braced himself from the destruction. Leon grinned wickedly; he was waiting for this moment of showdown. The wind was growing stronger around them and the woods around started to be plucked up by the whirls.“Damn it!” Sierra cursed under her breath. It was getting harder to breath and open her eyes widely. “Gray!! Don’t!!” She could hear herself screaming at the kid. However, it was unclear whether the kid heard her or not.Thus, in that split second; when Leon unleashed his enhanced power, Sierra decided to call upon her own. She spread her arms wide and felt her fire brought to life. The wind still went strong, and now with the addition of big flames around.Gray sensed the power and then looked at her. Once again, Gray couldn’t help, but awe at the magnificent sight. No matter how many times he saw that big wrath of flame, he always amazed by her. Now, the snow was truly disappeared, melted down from the extreme heat.Sierra gritted her teeth; it’s
Blessings of The Sun Chapter 69. Regarding Leon (2)
“Sierra, you still look as pretty as ever,” Leon gazed at the woman and smiled tenderly. However, it couldn’t fool her. Leon had changed. Totally. Whether the compliment was sincere or not, she didn’t want to think about that.“Leon! Come with us! Quick!”“Gray, wait!” Sierra tried to snatch his collar, but he’s already running towards his ‘friend’. Gosh, she could see the way Gray’s eyes sparkled with excitements. This fool literary forgot everything they had taught him about awareness.But who could blame the kid? It’s been two years; not being able to see his childhood friend, with so many questions on his head about why were the reasons Leon left them that night.With only three, maybe two steps from Leon, suddenly a big wave of wind came around them and managed to knock Gray back until he hit the nearest tree. He was caught off guard; never in his life, he would imagine that Leon would hurt him with the intent to kill.“Stupid kid!” Xion cursed under his breath; with Don who pass

“What’s with this early meeting on snowy days?” Keith yawned as he sat down in the meeting room. Gray rubbed his eyes tiredly, “Don’t know. Walter just sent the servants to each of us.”Sierra, who wrapped in thick clothes commented too, “Judging that it’s only the four of us, I think he has special mission.”“Sharp as always, Lady Sierra!” Walter came in into the room right at the moment, while bringing a warm cup of coffee.“You look horrible,” Xion said to the strategist. The bags under Walter’s eyes were horribly dark and big; anyone would know that he didn’t get sleep. “Yeah, it’s winter time. I have to think further to spring, you know.”“Right, now tell us what’s with this morning arrangement?” Sierra cut to the chase.“Okay, apparently. I just found out that a strong warrior was captured months ago by Bealaris.” He started to explain, “Here. This town, West Land.”“Who’s the warrior?” Keith asked curiously; he might know one or two martial arts experts in this land.“His name
