Nathania might not have thought that she was stranded on an island which was also the territory of a small kingdom called Vasilenia.
Vasilenia means 'Blessed Land' not without reason, the kingdom located on this southeastern island was very prosperous and peaceful. The soil is fertile, making agriculture very developed. Vasilenia was also led by a very wise and generous king.
King Leonard and his wife, Queen Clara have 10 sons and one youngest daughter. The ten sons and one king's daughter were the result of the king's marriage to the queen, without a single concubine due to the king's loyalty to his wife.
"Are you back?" asked Queen Clara, welcoming her sons who had returned from the forest with tense faces. The queen had a feeling that her children had done something bad.
"We're home, Mother!" Prince Robin, the eldest who tried to be calm, so that his mother didn't have to feel restless.
"Agh ... I'm going to sleep!" said Prince Vincent who yawned wid
All eyes were on her, making it difficult for Nathania to breathe. With a pale face, exhausted and not eating anything since she fell into the sea. Now, Nathania was forced to face King Leonard like a prisoner.The king, queen, ten princes and a princess and five nobles stood before her, waiting for an explanation from her as to why she came to this island."Tch, why don't you talk too? are you mute?" Prince Claude said sarcastically, starting to lose his temper.Not that she doesn't want to answer, Nathania doesn't know how to explain to them about her condition. If she claimed to be the crown prince of Lithonia, would they believe it right away?"What is your name?" asked Queen Clara gently. Patiently, the queen approached Nathania who looked restless."Nathan!" she replied briefly."Nathan?" hearing the answer, they looked at each other as if they suspected the same thing."Where do you come from?""Lithonia!""Lithonia? why d
"Not ordinary human eyes? what do you mean?" asked Richard."Perhaps, his eyes are so beautiful they fascinate women!" said Nicholas."Stop it, Nick! we're serious!" Randall, who didn't like to joke, immediately rebuked Nicholas."All right, burly man!""It's just my feeling, but he's from Lithonia, isn't he? a land blessed by a great God. Matthew, don't you think?""Yes, Lithonia is called a heavenly version of the earth for gods. As told in the book, a goddess came down to earth and met a human, they fell in love and married. Their relationship resulted in a son who would become the first king of Lithonia that to the power inherited through the mother. The village which was originally small and isolated, slowly turned into the largest dynasty that was built for 1000 years. But, finally Lithonia was divided because of the civil war 1000 years ago, forming two new kingdoms. Edafos and Fotia, the two kingdoms were actually did not inherit divine powers.
"How can I believe?""You just have to believe because it's the only choice you have!" Prince Robin smiled softly. If it was his old self, Nathania would have trusted someone who had a smile so gentle and sincere like this. However, the current self couldn't do it that easily.There were many things that happened in her life, especially after Nathan left and gave her a necklace with this mysterious, discolored gem. She didn't know what would have happened if she didn't wear this necklace. Will everything still happen or vice versa."I don't know what happened to you and why you came to this island. You know? our kingdom is on a small island, there are only two palaces and not many inhabitants. When compared to Lithonia, Vasilenia is very small. That means, there is nothing interesting on this small island. There are many beautiful hills and valleys, two mountains and there are many waterfalls that flow along with rivers whose water is very clear. I'm sure in Lit
The sun was shining brightly, making the air feel warm and comfortable, the scent of flowers carried by the breeze. This was her favorite season, when the sun was not so fierce and the wind was blowing to make the air cool.In the past, when everything was fine. Nathania is sure to spend her free time lying on the grass, looking at the clouds walking above the sky or painting flowers on the canvas or drawing Judy's face on paper. Fun, that's how she felt. As if there is no burden to think about.Now, here on this island, Nathania is back feeling the peaceful atmosphere she used to feel. She has lived in this palace for four days, but until now no meaningful explanation has come out of her mouth. She was just silent and wanted to enjoy this peace even for a moment.On the green grass, in a bed of beautiful white daisies. A young man with dark brown hair was sitting alone, drawing something in his drawing book. His back somehow reminded Nathania of herself.Hes
"To keep stalling for time to get him to speak is just ridiculous!""So Claudy, what kind of thing do you think is ridiculous? can you explain to us?" asked Nicholas who continued to sit back and enjoy his tea."It's useless asking someone who always feels right!" Vincent immediately teased Claude who always complained about their actions.Queen Clara sighed, she did not know that accommodating strangers in their palace would cause a heated argument between her sons who had different opinions. Unlike Robin, Matthew and Alexei who can be calm or Nicholas who is too relaxed. Randall, Claude, Vincent and Richard are in a camp that if they don't agree, then they don't hesitate to fight. Although Claude did not use violence like Randall and Vincent, his harsh words always ignited the anger of three violent young men like Randall, Vincent and Richard.Raising 11 children is not easy. Even though in truth, they were very close to each other, it still did not guarant
"Is it true?""Yes!""Why? isn't all the attention and affection of everyone on you?"Nathania was thoughtful, thinking back to the attention she had received since she became Nathan. Everything felt fake because he was just a stunt double who was considered dead by everyone."What is all the care and affection for when it is not yours?""What does it mean?""No, nothing! it's just that I think having siblings is better than being alone!""That's right! hahahaha ... I also sometimes want to be the only child in this family. That way, I don't have to see siblings fighting and arguing with each other. I can also enjoy all this comfort alone. But, after I think again, having a lot of siblings is not bad either. I can share many things with them, joys, sorrows and everything,""Is that so?""Yes! since childhood, we are all very close, we grew up together with a father who likes to laugh, but is very sensitive and caring. Mother is p
"How can Jerry tell about us to him, behind our back!" said Nicholas."Who is Jerry?" asked David."Yes, Jerry! who else? how many Jerry are there in this palace?""But, I never thought he could be that open to Jerome!" Richard peeked intently from behind a pillar of the garden so that the whereabouts of those who were eavesdropping could not be identified."Jerome has something that allows him to earn someone's trust," said Robin. At least, he felt relieved because finally one of them could approach the guest well.Even though Claude always said that he didn't care, he still took part in the plans of his brothers. With a calm and ever-cynical expression, Claude leaned against the wall while observing the plants in front of him."Bu ... but, Jerome hasn't told me about me, Richard and Mia!" Alexei who has been waiting for his turn, gets impatient. His innocent behavior made him always get special attention from his brothers."How much do you
They enjoyed dinner together and tonight for the first time Nathania to have dinner with the King, Queen and their eleven children in one dining table.They still couldn't believe it, even though near them, Nathania began to eat her food with gusto. Princess Mia even tried to steal a glance with a smile."How's the food? do you like it, Your Majesty?" asked Queen Clara."Yes, the food is very delicious!""Oi, how long are you going to be here?" Claude asked sarcastically. Even though he already knew the fact that Nathania was the crown prince, it didn't make his attitude change immediately."Claude, don't talk like that!" Queen Clara immediately rebuked her son."Until they find me!""Until they find you?""Yes!""What if they can't find you? asked Vincent."They can do it! I know my father very well!""What if they think you've drowned?""Will not!""Why are you so sure?""Why so? only my belief!"
Nathania and Keith were silent for a moment, trying to guess what really happened to Aiden. They knew, just because Aiden didn't seem to be chasing them anymore didn't mean they were completely safe. Who will know what will happen next?"Alright, we have no choice but to go in and find out what's really going on!" Keith said. His eyes glanced into the cave which looked very dark from the outside. Yet he had a hunch that they would find answers to the questions that were running through their heads.Seeing Keith's earnestness, Nathania realized that she had to be strong. Even though her little heart still couldn't accept that the sacred treasure had disappeared, she had no choice but to examine it herself."Okay, come on!" She said confidently.They stepped cautiously into the cave, through the eerie darkness. The cave was completely dark as they had expected, but as they stepped further in, a bright blue light began to clearly fill the cave which looked l
"Is it true?" Keith smiled. Seeing Nathania who was so worried about him. Somehow it made him very grateful that he survived.Keith gripped Nathania's hand tightly, the pounding in his chest made him believe that there was still hope for his love to be reciprocated. However, compared to his passionate love, the desire to save the world was much greater, seeing the earnestness in Nathania's eyes.They had been running for 30 minutes and there was no sign of Aiden chasing them. Seeing Nathania's very pale and exhausted face, Keith thought that they should rest, especially since the sky was getting dark."Are you okay?" Keith asked. He stopped in his tracks. Beside him, Nathania was panting with cold sweat running down her body.Nathania nodded, she tried to force herself even though her body was pushing her to give up and rest."I... I'm fine! There's no need to worry!""You're not fine, we should rest now!" Keith pulled her hand towards the r
"Ugh... I can't walk anymore!" Nathania sat limply, after walking through the dense forest to find the cave.She knew from the start that it was impossible to catch up with Aiden, she was too timid to fight him. Although she had intended to use her power. However, considering the risk that would arise from her inability to control her powers, Nathania gave up.Keith had fought, fought with all her might and even sacrificed her own life to get her to this place and now, again she was taking on the role of a useless loser."Hiks ..." tears welled up in her eyes. She hated herself so much. Whenever bad luck happened to her, she would definitely blame herself for having to live by taking on such a huge role like this. Being a savior is not her dream, being a world hero should not be her responsibility. However, she was forced to do all of this."Nathan ... why? why?"Nathania was tight in her chest, the pain she was trying to endure. Nathan's face, Kei
Aiden arrived in front of a large cave. His eyes glanced at the holy scroll he had snatched from Keith and opened it to confirm that he was really in front of the cave where the shrine was."Right, this is the place!" he thought. Aiden stepped slowly into the mouth of the dark cave.When his feet just set foot into the cave, he was greeted by small glowing creatures flying in the cave. The light from their bodies brightened the dark cavern and the blue crystals that filled the walls and ceiling of the cave looked extremely sparkling.Aiden was sure that he was one step away from the divine treasure. Freeing himself from Diavolos' curse, that was his goal. Aiden knew that his mind and soul had been controlled, therefore it was impossible for him to resist Diavolos' wishes."You see? just a step away, that way you can be as free as you want!" he said."Aiden, you are truly amazing! I've been waiting for this moment for so long and only you can make i
Nathania jumped down the cliff by relying on the vines as a handle to keep her from falling."Sraaakkk...""Aaagh..." Her feet slipped on the damp ground. Nathania fell several meters before her feet landed on the ground."Ugh..." She winced as she fell to the ground. This is really bad, her legs are too sore to move. If she didn't find the cave quickly, then Aiden would definitely catch up with her.Nathania got up slowly with pain all over her body. She could not believe that she would dare to jump from up there without a rope or preparation, just relying on the plants and trees around her."Damn, my leg hurts so bad! How is it? If I don't find the cave soon, Aiden will find it first!" She thought. Nathania looked up, trying to watch for any sign of Aiden's presence.She didn't know if Keith was currently still fighting against Aiden and was buying time like he said? however, the outburst made her unsure that Keith would be okay. Nathania
“Do you think I and the other ministers are allowed to hide or run away? You are wrong to think that we are that selfish. It's true, there are so many selfish people who will definitely save themselves, I think it's only natural. If I could, I also wanted to run away and get out of here, getting my family as far away as possible so we could be safe. I don't care if you all have to die to buy time until help arrives. Yes, that's if I become part of the selfish people. But unfortunately, the King asked me and all the ministers, state officials and nobles to stay in our house and not leave our people. The king does not want to sacrifice his people, if someone has to be sacrificed to buy time, then we are the ones! In fact, the king sacrificed the son he loved so much to find the divine treasure alone, all for the safety of everyone. Prince Nathan must be struggling, fighting against enemies who also want the sacred treasure. This morning, the soldiers had prepared with their swords and
Headquarters, Kingdom of Lithonia “An eclipse has appeared, Your Majesty! Will Prince Nathan be able to find the island in time?” asked Advisor William who was standing a row behind the king who was about to begin his speech. In the center of the headquarters field, King Roderick Zafeiri stood in front of thousands of Lithonian soldiers to give enthusiasm and hope to the soldiers and youths who volunteered to join the emergency army considering that they were currentlyo somewhat in the midst of the threat of the rise of the demons. “Good afternoon the proud soldiers of Lithonia! As we all witness together, the solar eclipse has come bringing hope to all mankind. Today, we are faced with so many very tough tests, forcing us to be patient and endure until we can get through them all. Believe that help is drawing near! Never lose hope. Thanks to God being with us, we will definitely win!” Tears
Keith sat in front of the bonfire, keeping watch all night to make sure Nathania could rest for the night. Nathania lay beside him and seemed to be fast asleep. Meanwhile, Aleah who was lying beside Nathania continued to observe Keith. She couldn't sleep, let alone seeing Keith stand guard alone like that. Aleah got up and walked over to Keith, she took a seat beside Keith and sat quietly. Her eyes did not leave Keith, she felt this was a good opportunity to get closer to this young manThe night beforeKeith glanced at Aleah, he knew what women wanted. Even though Aleah just kept quiet and didn't do anything, it still annoyed Keith."What are you doing? why don't you sleep?" asked Keith curtly. His rude and cold attitude only made Aleah even more attracted to him.Aleah shifted her seat position until she was right next to Aiden. She smiled seductively as she puffed out her chest, wishing Keith's ey
The killer whales took them to a small island with tall trees and white sand all around it. "Thank you for helping us! Goodbye!" said Keith. The killer whales swam away after their task was done. "Thank you! See you later...!" Nathania waved her hand. She felt very grateful to them. Their bodies were drenched and their trees had nothing to help them survive this cold night. Keith took off his wet shirt and hung it out on the coconut tree stuff. Aleah who accidentally saw Keith's beautiful body, felt very embarrassed, but on the one hand, she felt very grateful to Keith and also Nathania for helping her so far. "Tha ... thank you so much! I really don't know what will happen to me if you don't help me!" She said. She smiled happily and her eyes immediately fell on Keith who wasn't too interested in her. "You don't need to thank's. Right, Keith?" Na
