If Aiden had changed his form into a wolf this time, Nathania would have seen sharp teeth from behind his terrifying grin. However, she was lucky enough that Aiden didn't do that.
Even though the anger started to rise to the top of the head, again Aiden couldn't do anything to vent it. It felt so suffocating and this was the first time Aiden had experienced it.
"Tch, shit!" he said cursing. Aiden got up from his place, just as pain struck his head.
"Ugh ...!" Aiden grimaced. This pain was excruciating. There was a feeling of heat running through his body until it reached his head.
Seeing Aiden's strange condition made Nathania even more worried. Aiden did not move from his place and kept holding his head which hurt.
"Aiden, are you all right?" Nathania who was very sensitive to someone's pain, immediately took action by approaching Aiden, as she usually did when she saw Nathan in pain.
"Ugh ..."
"Aiden ..."
"Plaaakkk!" Aiden hurr
King Roderick greeted the hand with a very authoritative body language. Even if he didn't say anything, the people who saw him must have felt his great charm as a descendant of a god."Welcome to Lithonia!" he said briefly. The atmosphere that was initially awkward, slowly melted away when the king who was known for being cold and arrogant spoke a sentence that was almost impossible to pronounce.Lithonia is a kingdom that is highly respected, both by friends and by enemies. Kings have powers that ordinary humans do not have, who can deny that they are the ones most worthy of leading civilization?Although Lithonia and Evangelia seemed fine, it was seen from the two kings and queens who shook each other and threw greetings. However, it is different from the eternal enemy of the kingdom formed in the name of this god, the kingdom that was built from the betrayal of their ancestors that made Lithonia a cruel and brutal battlefield.Edafos, yes, a dynasty founde
Even though she was used to the attention that was always given to her. However this time the situation was very different. People saw her no longer as a sweet and cute little prince. But a young prince who will soon be 15 years old. That means, she is old enough to choose her future bride."Sofia, what are you doing?" asked a young blonde girl who stood among the entourage of the Kingdom of Evangelia.The young girl stepped hesitantly towards Princess Sofia who still didn't move from her place. This made Nathania unable to do anything."Sofia, aren't you too presumptuous to ask the Grand Prince to talk like this? don't you already know the rule that no one can invite the Grand Prince of Lithonia to speak without permission even if you are a princess even once!" she warned.Despite not reacting, everyone who looked at them agreed to the young girl's warning about the rule. Nathania frowned, she was the only person who felt badly wronged by the ridiculous rule
"Greetings, Princess Rosalia? I hope you will feel at home in our palace. It will be time for dinner soon, you better get ready!""We ... well, Prince!""Then, excuse me. See you?" said Nathania as she left Princess Rosalia who was very nervous because she met her.For Nathania, today is a tiring day. All day long she had to sit beside her father in the meeting room. Discussing things she didn't understand, not to mention the noble daughters who kept stealing glances at her. Nathania who realized it, could only smile and it seemed that was enough to stun the young girls."Knock ... knock ... knock ..."Due to daydreaming, Nathania didn't notice that her feet were carrying her right in front of Nathan's door. Not without reason, Nathania felt that her soul was already attached to her twin brother."Come in!" said Nathan who seemed to already know who was standing at the door of his room.Nathania opened the door slowly and walked in with a ti
The man grinned, Nathania seemed to have to admit that this young man in front of her had a very handsome face. His eyes sparkled golden and his smile looked different, as if he didn't belong to this world.Nathania was stunned, she hadn't even had time to wipe the remaining tears that were still lingering on her eyelids. The beautiful phoenix has now transformed into a young man with a golden smile."Why are you so stunned? just now, you were fascinated by me, right?""No ... no, who said? I'm just confused, how can a bird turn into a human!" she answered innocently. Looks like Nathania forgot someone who has the same abilities like him."Hum ... really?" he said uncertainly. He walked over to Nathania who was nailed in place.The more you look at it, this young man looks even more amazing. There was light shining around him."These tears of yours, what do this mean?" he said while wiping Nathania's tears. That made Nathania even more motionless
"Hiks ... hiks ..."Nathania sobbed, covered her wet face with her arms while lying on the bed. This is the second time today that Nathania is crying. First, because of the words of despair that left Nathan's mouth. The words that broke her feelings and now, Nathania had to cry again because of what her father said.After dinner, Nathania was tried by her father in front of her mother, grandmother, Lady Valerie and her children for the embarrassing words and actions that Nathania did tonight."Is that how you behave in front of royal guests? Is that how you have been educated?" the sound of rolling out the king sounded like lightning.It was too powerful to make everyone in the room speechless. Although trying not to show his deepest emotions, it seems that what Nathania has done has destroyed his dignity as a king of the dynasty who holds the spearhead of civilization.Witnessing her father's anger was not the first time she felt. But this time, s
"Ho ... hole?" Nathania was shaking. Although she didn't want to believe that the bodies buried in this hole were victims of Aiden's brutality. However, if Nathania recalled what this young man was like, Nathania would have no choice but to believe.Aiden continued to stare at her with those shining eyes. The look in his eyes made Nathania unable to move, as if a magic had caused her to lose the constraints on her own body."Bruuukkk ... bruuukkk ... bruuukkk,"The ground began to move to close the hole. There was a strong tremor around her and at times like this, Nathania couldn't do anything to save her increasingly helpless self."Please Aiden ...!" Nathania moaned, hoping Aiden could help her this time. Even though she knew, there was no hope for that. Nathania was silent, stunned with tears streaming down her face.Aiden saw the cry and he felt empty. Those eyes shone like the moon and his soul was always filled with hatred, for some reason th
Everything she wanted to say seemed stuck in her throat as Aiden filled her lips with kisses. How could he do something like this? that's the right sentence to describe how shocked Nathania was over the kiss that Aiden gave her.After 10 seconds of tension, Aiden pulled his face and opened his wolf-like eyes. Cold and cruel, that was what shone in his demonic eyes.Nathania who had just received the devil's kiss was suffocated in her place with half of her life flying out of her body. Aiden did not say anything after doing something rude to a girl, he calmly walked away leaving Nathania who was motionless like a statue.Aiden opened the balcony door and sat on the sturdy wooden fence, looking at the lightening sky. Meanwhile Nathania who started to regain consciousness, felt crazy after realizing that Aiden had snatched her first kiss.Nathania's face flushed, her hands clenched tightly and trembling. Her heart was still beating as fast as those tense sec
"You can't live inside the palace, Aiden!"King Ellios looked at his youngest son with a frighteningly cold gaze. However, instead of trying to make the boy fear him, he was simply trying to hide the panic he had been struggling to hide since his son's birth."Wh ... why Father?" Aiden stared at him. The only question that can represent how he feels right now is just why and how?In life, humans will always be forced to make difficult choices, including even a king. For years hoping for the birth of a son who will inherit the kingdom and when he got it, at the same time he had to give up the woman he loved so much to go away forever.To give birth to a devil means to be prepared to sacrifice your life. The little boy who stood with wet eyes in front of him, was silent as he began to feel that suffering was about to begin."You can't coexist with humans, Aiden. You can kill and cause catastrophe!""Bu ... but I don't want to kill anyone, Father!" L
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
