Towards A Happy Ending…“Are we there yet?” Iero asked after they walked for some time. If earlier, they just feel bored while walking in the Space and Time Tunnel for a long time after losing their interest in the surrounding sceneries of the different worlds, now, they started to feel tired. Not only physically, but mentally, too. Iero could see the exhaustion on their faces, and he can heal their physical exhaustion. But, for the mental one, he can’t since he recalled that Gie has once said that this is a psychological problem. Everyone is starting to feel irritated or frustrated, and even about to lose it since the anxiety that they feel to return to their world, as well as their worry for their people, especially towards their family (for Skye and Hail), made them feel more anxious, and more worried. Yet, they don’t know when they will return to their world. And they also don’t know how long they will keep walking. Reyan heaved a sigh when they saw their impatient expressions
Towards A Happy Ending…East Kingdom.Aria’s body woodenly stood beside the throne where Sykh, her husband and the king of the East Kingdom, usually sat while chatting with her with a smile. But, right now, this throne is occupied by the moon goddess who, not only is threatening them to kill everyone, especially their son Hail, the second prince of the East Kingdom, she also is using Aria to threaten Sykh for him to kill Yuria, who is Aria’s mother.Even if Aria has a bad relationship with Yuria, she is still her mother. So, how would Aria feel if Sykh would kill Yuria? Obviously, Aria would hate Sykh. So, Sykh killing Yuria for Aria’s sake is extremely useless, since Aria would just hate Sykh not only because Yuria is her mother, and that Sykh killed someone for her sake, Sykh also would kill innocent people.Thus, the moon goddess loves this perverse drama and amusingly watches them all jump around in their palm. Right now, the moon goddess is sipping the wine that a servant poured
Towards A Happy Ending…Hail, Sybb, Blue, Kulv, Iero, Mahi, Laggas, Skye and Hierro didn't know how long they had been walking when they suddenly heard Reyan exclaim.“I can see it!” Reyan yelled, sounding very excited.They turned and saw him pointing in a certain direction.“What?! What did you say?!” Blue eagerly asked as he pulled Reyan’s billowing sleeve.“I said, I saw our world!” Reyan answered as he held Blue’s cheeks before he made him turn to the direction where he was looking at earlier.Hail, Sybb, Kulv, Iero, Mahi, Laggas, Skye and Hierro
Towards A Happy Ending…“This… why did our world suddenly…?” Blue asked with widened eyes as they looked at the scenery flashing suddenly dimmed.“What happened?!” Iero asked in panic as he looked at the others with an inquiring gaze, hoping to get an answer from them.“It should be just… a storm?” Mahi spoke as he looked at the dim world of theirs.“A storm in the entire land?” Kulv muttered as they all looked at the scenery from their four kingdoms all became dim.“Reyan?” Skye called as he looked at Reyan.Hierro also looked at Reyan with a worried gaze. He feels nervous. He hopes that their world is alright and that they still have a chance to save it. Their world can’t just end without them fighting the moon goddess, much less just reaching there, right?!Everyone looked at Reyan, waiting for his answer.Reyan’s face looked serious as he looked at their dimmed world. “Wait… wait… I seem to have remembered something…” he said as his eyes narrowed with a flash of light in them.“T
Towards A Happy Ending…“This… What is this place?” Iero asked when they had stepped on the ground and found that they had arrived in an unfamiliar place.“I don’t know… I am not familiar with this place.” Reyan answered as he also looked around, trying to find anything familiar from their surroundings.“Did we, perhaps, enter another world again?” Hail asked and grimaced. His voice sounds uncertain.The others felt nervous and heaved a deep breath, thinking the same thing.“We can’t be that unlucky, can we?” Blue muttered.“Anyone that has been in this place?” Sybb asked as he looked at the others while he pulled Hail away from the muddy ground after Hail almost stepped on a puddle of water. “No.” Laggas answered with a shake of his head.“I haven’t, either.” Kulv answered with a sigh.“Neither did I.” Skye said after he pondered for a while.“I did.” Mahi spoke.Everyone immediately turned to look at him.“This is a part of the South Kingdom.” Mahi said as he walked towards the hu
Towards A Happy Ending…The moon goddess noticed that the guard’s face is so red due to loss of breath and he is about to die so she let him go. “Useless trash.” She cursed as she looked down at him with her eyes filled with disdain.“Ugh.” The guard grunted when he fell on the floor. His back hit the cold and hard tiled floor.“Tell me. How did she escape?” the moon goddess asked in a cold voice. Her piercing eyes that are staring at him are filled with suppressed anger. Like a volcano that is about to erupt in rage.The guard coughed and gasped to catch his breath. “I… I don’t know, Your Majesty…” he answered as he crawled away from the moon goddess with his entire body trembling in fear.The moon goddess’ eyes narrowed dangerously as she looked at the guard. “What do you mean that you don’t know?” she asked as she raised her hand.The guard’s eyes widened when his body started to float in the air again. “AAAH!” he screamed when his body hit the ceiling. He groaned in pain.“Answer
Towards A Happy Ending…“Blue? What’s wrong?” Hail asked when he noticed Blue’s small movement. Then, he saw Blue’s strange expression. “Blue?” he called again when Blue didn’t answer.Blue’s brows are tightly knitted as he continues to clutch his chest. His gaze is focused, as if he is… sensing something.“Blue…?” Iero called when he, Hierro and Reyan also noticed Blue’s actions.“What’s wrong?” Hierro asked as he patted Blue’s shoulder.Blue started, and then blinked. He turned to look at Hail, Iero, Hierro and Reyan who were looking for him. “I…” he muttered.Reyan’s face is serious. “Did you sense something?” he asked.Blue looked at him, then nodded. “Yes.” He honestly answered.Hail, Iero, and Hierro were surprised.“Fairies are connected to nature, since they are children of nature.” Reyan spoke. “So, it is just natural for Blue to sense something.” He explained.Hail, Iero and Hierro nodded in understanding.“What did you sense, Blue?” Hail asked.Blue turned to him. “I… don’
Towards A Happy Ending…“Can we build one?” Laggas asked.“Why build one? We have vehicles here, of course.” Mahi told them.They all turned to look at him. “Really?!” they said.“Of course, it can’t shift to water transportation. It is just land transportation.” Mahi said.“Oh.” They felt disappointed.A vein popped in Mahi’s forehead. “Hey, Mhir’s world is very magical, okay? Not to mention that she is a dwarf, which race are all great craftsmen!” he told them.“Pft!” They all lau
Towards A Happy Ending…Fifth Kingdom.“How… how do you think everyone is?” Laila nervously asked Yuria after she and Yuria destroyed the moon goddess’s statue, as well as her entire temple, using her (Laila) power by creating silver weapons.They had just finished destroying the moon goddess’s statue and some women and children who are currently free after they helped in cooking as well as cleaning the surroundings helped Laila and Yuria in destroying the moon goddess’s temple as Yuria instructed after they heard Yuria’s explanation that the moon goddess is the one who caused all their grief and sadness by scheming not only against the witch, but also against all of them! She played all of them!So, Yuria doesn’t need to tell them which they should destroy, for they all wanted to destroy everything in this temple – which all was filled with lies!Yuria took a deep breath as she looked at the now destroyed temple of the moon goddess. She has never felt this relieved before. “Everyone
Towards A Happy Ending ... Sykh is not stupid to not realize that this was his son’s doing! What is Skye thinking?! He thought, feeling angry. The enemy is not them, but the other side! The moon goddess! He thought and gnashed his teeth in anger. Is Skye out of his mind?! Did the witch damage his brain to see us – his family and people, his enemies to attack us?! he thought. Sure, Skye doesn’t know yet about their real enemy – the moon goddess, who is currently possessing Hierro, since they all just met each other again. So, it is natural for Skye to freeze them all, putting his guard up against all of them. This is really a good move, especially during this very tense war against the witch – and now, the moon goddess. Sykh inwardly sighed and turned his gaze to look at the moon goddess, only for his eyes to widen when he saw that ‘Hierro’ also can’t move! Sykh’s eyes widened and a thought flashed in his mind, to which he guessed right. Skye really froze them all so as to not a sin
Towards A Happy Ending…Blue stared at both Reyan and Hail, whose bodies are currently floating inside the carriage, with his eyes wide in both shock and disbelief. He was crying earlier but then suddenly was startled after he opened his eyes that the two’s bodies suddenly floated inside the carriage. He was scared, thinking that something bad happened, especially when he saw a great force come out of Hail’s body and hit Reyan’s body!Blue finally reacted and grabbed the two bodies, wanted to stop what is happening. He felt worried that the force that came from Hail’s body might hurt Reyan’s body which is already very frail. After, the force, although invisible but Blue can see, really slammed hard to Reyan’s body. It looked really bad, as if the force wanted to kill Reyan!“Reyan!” Blue cried, feeling both scared and worried about Reyan. Just as his hand neared Reyan’s body, he was hit b
Towards A Happy Ending…Iero didn't know the reason, so he shook his head. “No.” he answered as he looked at Hierro, only to be shocked when he heard Hierro’s answer.“That is because the moon goddess has the ability to absorb others’ powers.” Hierro said. “Just like how she did to the witch.” He told him.Iero’s jaw dropped. “What?!” he exclaimed. The moon goddess can absorb powers?! he thought and shuddered when he felt a chill on his spine. No wonder why Hierro stopped him earlier from trying to cure Hierro. That is because it would be useless, since the moon goddess would absorb his power, then later use it f
Towards A Happy Ending…‘Hierro’ was supposed to be knocked unconscious, but why is he still awake?! Sykh, Jun, Sylv, and Iero were stunned when they saw that ‘Hierro’ is still conscious despite being hit by one of the veteran guards who sneaked up behind ‘him’.“How did she do it?!” they exclaimed as they warily backed away from ‘Hierro’. They don’t know how the moon goddess did it, and they don’t want to know since they realize how really great her power is.Iero gnashed his teeth in anger as he hatefully glared at ‘Hierro’. How he wanted to tear her off apart, but not only would Hierro be the one he will hurt, but that he knows that his own power is not the type for attacks like Skye, Laggas, Sybb, and Hail. His power is also not the type for defense, but his type of power is special – which is healing, that is rare.“Be careful of her!” Iero told them as he clenched his fists, ready to use his power to heal everyone’s bodies in case the moon goddess attacks them. But, surprisingl
Towards A Happy Ending…“Do you think that if you shout, the people outside will hear you?” ‘Hierro’ asked him.Iero heard ‘his’ question. But, instead of feeling scared, he smiled. He already guessed earlier – as soon as he entered the carriage and his body was frozen by her, that the moon goddess must have done something inside the carriage for them to not be heard by the people outside since he felt the carriage was shaking and heard that the horses were galloping outside, indicating that they have resumed traveling, heading to the West Kingdom as they planned. But now, it became as the moon goddess planned.So naturally, it is hopeless for Iero to yell or scream since no one would be able to hear him excep
Towards A Happy Ending…With the barrier of his power of time, Kulv would be able to ‘see’ or ‘feel’ how the people inside the barrier. So, he knows that Laggas and Sybb are still alive since he can sense their powers inside his barrier of time. But, as for how they are right now, Kulv can’t tell since the coverage of the barrier of time is wide when he set it up along with Mahi for the barrier is also to be a trap for the witch.“Sybb is being chased by the witch.” Kulv told Mahi as he closed his eyes to concentrate on feeling his barrier, focusing on the area where the Golden Forest is – to where Laggas and Sybb, including the witch who is chasing Sybb, are heading from opposite directions. “Meanwhile, Laggas was helping Sybb fend off the witch by switching positions with him. Yet the witch is still – “ he said and sighed.“Because Sybb is weaker than Laggas, right?” Mahi guessed. Soft persimmons are the first ones to be picked, this has always been true.Kulv grimaced, but he nodd
Towards A Happy Ending…Not only did the moon goddess not tell them how the witch suddenly became weak, but also who put the witch into a deep sleep. After all, they know how powerful the witch is. Even now, her powers have become weak and she also stole Sykh and Aria’s powers, as well as Yuria’s, but they know, after hearing the story of the witch, how powerful could she be – even five times more powerful than she is right now!The witch’s powers are unfathomable, they know this. So, the witch should have no equal in the past. She was the strongest being. No one should have been able to harm her. Yet, she still has fallen. And it was due to the moon goddess who sneakily attacked her! In short, the witch was plotted against! This is the truth! No wonder when the witch woke up, she was enraged. Who wouldn’t when you were very powerful yet still fell?As to why Jun and Iero were sure that it is the moon goddess who is the culprit, it is because the moon goddess has already had a chance
Towards A Happy Ending…Iero secretly watched Hierro who was talking with Sykh, Jun, and Sylv while he sat on the side of the road as they stopped to let the horses eat grass and drink water in the oasis that they passed by. Fortunately, they found an oasis when they were about to run out of water. They were just still halfway before they reached the borders of the West Kingdom.Ever since Iero found out that there was something residing inside Hierro’s head, he has been closely watching Hierro to know whether Hierro knows about it or not. But, as he had guessed last night, Iero really doesn’t know anything about that strange thing inside his head. If Hierro was aware, Hierro would naturally have told them. But the fact is, Hierro didn’t. Who wouldn’t freak out if they find that there was something inside their head?This made Iero worry since he still hasn’t found any solution about Hierro’s situation, especially since Hierro himself doesn’t know about it. Then, there are Sykh, Jun,
