Shuffled faster, while looking nearly suspicious, his face crumbled, and his jaw tightened. He fled straight into the forest and went toward his small cabin, where Shadow was supposed to be.

A few knights greeted him as he passed by with his stoic expression, none ever questioned his motive to be near the crime scene. With a glum nod, they let him pass by them.

Some offered to escort him, which he politely declined while the others silently watched him with emotional gazes. Everyone acknowledged him as part of the lion tribe, and for that, he was always grateful to them.

Despite being favored by the king, he was still hellbent to be independent, therefore, purchasing the most desolate place at the peak of the mountain, away from civilization. Which gave the king and the queen a fright.

Well, his process of thought constantly gave his adoptive parents a scare. Occasionally, the parents urged him to attend therapy sessions with them – which he had to comply with because he loved them an

    Don’t tell me…A realization dawned on him and Albert’s throat moved up and down.“You’d better tell me where he is, brother!” Brother!He used a family card. His weakness. His one and only solace.'Shit. This is unfair.'Helplessly, he threw his elbow over his eyes and groaned. The leaves rustled as the cold wind caressed his body. The sun was descending as the searching party was still looking all over the forest to the divided river between the hyena and lion’s tribes. “Albert… brother…” Dhia acted cute.His heart trembled and became increasingly weaker and weaker. It melted into the ground. He didn’t have to see to know what they were doing. Right now, they probably were working hard to appeal to him. Acting all cute and puppy eyes. Bought his soul with such an act, contradicting their vicious nature.Each time, however, his soul was automatically bought. He loved them too, his heart couldn’t handle it. Each time, they won this battle. They knew their strong point and they w

    Ignoring those annoying mouths, Albert glanced at the living room momentarily. His head was imaging a massive bed and a good cooling system and filtering system next to the window. The black curtains draped right in front of the windows to shield strong daylight. Instantly, the living room transformed into exactly what he was imagining.“Oh wow.” Firash’s mouth popped open.“His magic proficiency is unworldly.” Dhia’s eyes twinkled excitedly.Without saying anything to both of them, he climbed onto the bed while Shadow was still in his arms and instantly cuddled her. They dived inside the thin blanket and draped it on Shadows after lying her on the bed, next to him.Shadow didn’t even stir, just hugged his thigh, making it impossible to climb out of the bed. Given up on the idea, he sat next to Shadow and adjusted the blanket so it covered both of them, beckoning the other two to join them. The two of them scrambled in a glee sound and joined them. Dhia dived next to Shadow and hugg

    Shadow was woken up by the intense banter between the trio. Squishing between Firash and Dhia like a sandwich, Albert towered over them at the corner of the massive bed, placing his hands on his waist.Their voice intensity made it impossible for her to continue her deep slumber, therefore, she decided to enjoy the ride, instead.“There’s nothing wrong with being different guys.” Dhia pressed Shadow’s head against her stomach.Apparently, they were discussing their differences. This fight was between the lion and wolf pride which she wished not to be involved with. She was the only normal human here. What could go wrong?“Yeah, right.” Albert seemed to be extremely annoyed.“Look, you are a wolf, we are lions. That doesn’t mean we are not the same.” Firash tried to be reasonable.“And what is that?” Albert scoffed, agitated.“At least, when we are in this form, we are the same. We are humans before we are our subclass. We are divided simply because my ancestors received the lion’s ph

    The next morning, she completely became normal as she said. Yet, she could only escape her brothers' and sister's grasp after a strict inspection. Hence, leaving the cabin was her priority.However, the busybody siblings couldn’t simply let her go. After hours of begging and tears, Firash and Dhia let her go – not because they were so keen about it – it was because they had a prior engagement.Furthermore, they needed to report her well-being to the palace right away. According to the protocol, it was supposed to be right away, but they bent the rule just because Shadow asked them to.And, the report version would naturally be filtered.Nevertheless, Shadow sat in the gazebo that Albert created specifically for her, next to the stream that was flowing. It produced a harmonious sound. It was about one half before Alber returned with the server. The server was holding three glasses of watermelon juice and a plate of beef jerky.“Your Holiness, I had already summoned them as you instruc

    Shifting their gazes between the file and Shadow simultaneously, Ali and Syamsul were still reluctant to peer inside.“Stop worrying over uncertain things. Please read it before you decide. This is why she’s calling you here. We are not barbarous, forcing others to accept our beliefs. You are a capable human, I’m sure you know what’s good and what’s bad.”Well, sorry for worrying. Syamsul’s face indicated exactly that.The file was weirdly tempting enough. Cautiously, Ali placed the pad of his fingers on the file but Syamsul winced in disapproval. “I will read this file.” He braced himself from any expectation or disappointment. He deluded himself as a curious person and this was just an experience.“Please do. And your decision is your own discretion. Hence why I don’t wish to force you.”Her action was sincere but Syamsul felt wrong about it. As far as he knew, she was the most open mysterious person that not many could figure out. She was a strong individual but people were wary o

    Interestingly, the king’s narration was so loud inside her head. He spoke a lot for a little information. At first, it was fun, but as time went by, he became even more delusional. His inner thought inevitably gave her a headache.“Tone it down, Your Majesty…” Shadow’s face had become pale. “You are so loud.”“Yes? Oh!” Ali looked bashful.Syamsul pursed his lips and made a disapproving sound. He still couldn’t say anything back to her because her face was projecting her words. She wasn’t mocking but genuinely troubled by whatever Ali said although the king wasn’t as loud as she exclaimed to be.Albert took advantage of the situation. Ali looked genuinely hurt and Syamsul was looking at her as if she was an alien. Shadow had a lot of secrets. A few of them were disclosed as soon as they were binding through contract. “I will reveal one of her important secrets so you will understand her better. Her words and thoughts align with each other. Those are gravely linked together. You will

    Realizing their mistake, Syamsul bowed his head. Although he knew that he was wrong. As a prideful nobleman. It wasn’t for him to acknowledge his mistake. That attitude put Shadow in a bad mood immediately. They needed to be taught the importance of apologies or to lower their pride to have a better result. Studies told her that, a benevolent ruler would have benevolent people which would have the finest end product to boost the economic status.“In his case, the royal family cares for their crown prince. However, currently, the crown prince has no military support. It is clear that this will become a great weakness in the future for him when the actual for the throne begins. The king is worried about that.”She continued to speak.“Albert also fixed their economic income by introducing a proper business setting and getting rid of the unauthorized gamble houses.”“I know. His direct involvement confused me. I thought the royal had bestowed you with the land that he promised.”“They

    For a whole day after the meeting with the king and the advisor/prime minister of the wingsman clan, Albert went straight away into the hiding position, remaining still, with no body movement, a calculated breath, and sharp senses.Frankly, Albert didn’t see any point in this game until he heard the bombing sound go off right off the bat.The bombs were set under the traps. And he was talking about countless traps, at the most sketchy places. The fact that the bombs simultaneously went off was like music to his ears, making him jittery.There’s only one explanation for what is going on.Either Shadow unintentionally set off the bombs or it was intentional and acting like an actual lunatic.“The hell…”At first, he thought he was safe, hiding inside the thick bushes, next to the normal tree. Step, step, step.The sudden deliberate hurried steps resonated dangerously close to him, hovering around as if she was testing the water. “What the,” he muttered as he levered himself up from hi

    Black and Teal landed at the training ground where Shadow was. Their clean attire fluttered around, eyes focused on Shadoe who was harassing her sparring partners which consisted of Albert, Firash, Aidan, Dhia, and also Musa. Watching those people's haggard faces and tattered clothes, Teal covered her mouth as a nostalgic feeling crept under her skin. It was not a great experience. Although, it increased her prowess, power, ability to wield her GIFT, and strength. Still, it wasn’t a pleasant experience knowing how brutal Shadow could be. “I think we need to rescue them.” “Should we?”Black mumbled while stroking her chin while Teal shivered at the thought alone. Then, both of them wavered their hands as those people took notice of them and pleaded with their eyes.“Should we?”“... we should, should we?”Black asked cunningly and Teal sighed in resignation. If they don't save them, they might hit their limit soon. In normal circumstances, it would be ideal, however, not right now.

    “Hmmm… are those the ships that we need to destroy?” “Apparently so, Blue.”“Seriously?”“Yup, yup.”“... that thing is gigantic. What the…” “Fu fu fu. Believe me, I thought so too, Blue.”Blue and Pink were standing right in front of the naval ship. Blue was standing on top of the ice he created while Pink was flying, fluttering her flower’s wings behind her back.They were in the middle of the sea with nothing in it. They were sure that the mermen would be ambushing. They expected it to a certain extent, however… what they didn’t expect was the oblivious approach.The naval ships filled with countless beastmen, no. hundreds of confused beastmen. Both Pink and Blue didn’t smell particularly strong.Blue seemed delighted but Pink was quite vexed. “Did we get the weakest link?” She flipped open her paper fan and fanned it harder.“I don’t know. Feels like I am in heaven.”Pink gnashed her teeth and glared at her partner.“What?” Blue acted innocent.“You and your stupid attitude.” S

    “Look. there’s an ass picture of the supposed dragon lord.” Green mumbled next to White.“I can see that, Green.” White tried to control her lips from vomiting.“Just alerting you.”“Thank you.”Green and White were disguising themselves as a wizard and a witch. Wands at each hand.“Young man,” a soft touch was placed on Green.Green reflexly turned his head at the old lady next to him. His green eyes dilated a mere second before a sweet smile emerged. “Yes, beautiful lady?” “Ho ho ho,” the old lady that looked not more than 70 years old radiantly chuckled. “How sweet you are.” White looked away, acting like Green and she wasn’t related. The old lady might appear 70, but she knew better, that the old lady was centuries old.“Do you know what is the meaning behind this painting?”Green stroked his chin, pondering at the ass painting – again, the supposed dragon lord. He wasn’t sure what to say. It was literally the buttcrack of Ferdinand. How’d he know? The description was literall

    Bzzzzzzt~The sharp sound of electricity traveled across the metal factory.Unlike Grey and Brown, their destination was a metal factory. Thanks to kind-hearted Grey, they changed their destination. It was the closest and it was on the ground.Everyone knew Orange didn’t do well underground due to old trauma. Hence why Grey decided to give in. As always. Also, they all knew that Orange was Grey’s favorite. Of course, Grey denied the claim and the issue died there. As usual.They strolled inside as if they were visiting the factory, not invading. Meanwhile, the enemies were panicking.“Abad’s been hit. There’s someone out here–” The voice that was shouting through the radio before cutting out. Huh? The fuck? Abad’s hurt?“Captain Ayham, the left side is clear,” Barqi said right after that. “We’re moving, heading to the main pathway.” Ayham gritted his teeth.He was in the controller room. CCTV captured the activities inside the factory. However, the place where the enemies were situ

    Tap! Both of them landed right in the middle of the nothingness. It was barren. Sand, rock, and cactus. That’s all.It was a freaking desert.“This is the right place.” Brown adjusted his mask.Grey raised his arm into the air and pulled out his middle finger and felt the air.“Why must that one?” Brown was tired of his antics.“As long as I can do my work,” retorted Grey nonchalantly. “What about your situation?” Slightly turned his head at Brown.“I have a clear vision.” Brown closed his eyes, feeling the movement underneath. “How many?” He tilted his head. Something was wrong. The weather felt wrong for some reason. The density of air was different than usual.“Approximately 50 beastmen on each floor. I could be wrong.”“And how many floors do they have?” He opened his eyes and stared at the sky.“Approximately… three.” Grey counted the clouds in the air. “Three? Are you sure?” Brown tilted his head and set his jaw, feeling the vibration even the smallest one. “Wait a minute!

    “Wild Bunny, gather!” Black clapped her hands, calling the rest of the restless members.“What are we? Fucking school kids?” Orange murmured silently, his steps still trudging toward Black.“Shut your stinky mouth.” Brown clicked his tongue.“What a fool.” White shook her head.“You’re the last thing I want to hear.” Teal groaned.“We ain’t fighting.” Pink pushed both their heads at once while walking past them.The rest of them were laughing inwardly.Once they gathered, Black placed a transparent bowl with numerous folded papers in it. Her black eyes latched on each one of them, wriggled her brows petulantly.“As usual, we’ll choose our area the Old Way.”“Ugh! I hate it.” Blue murmured amongst them. The voice filled with annoyance.“We must use this method to ensure fairness, Blue Bunny.” Blue rolled his eyes shut and slumped his head on Pink’s shoulder.“I’ll pick the paper for us.” Pink raised her hand.“Me… will do.” White raised her hand as well.Gold nodded at Black.“Alright

    Flashback! “Hey! Do you want to hear a secret?” Shadow asked right after her wedding took place.All the Underworld family gathered around. A secret? Just you, and the rest of us? Ehe., hehehe. Oops. sorry that had to come out. Go on.” Brown and Orange clasped their hands in full happiness.“What is it?” Black swallowed hard. “Don’t tell me…”“Something is wrong.” Captain from Mandrill Monkey arched his brow in anticipation.“I also can feel it in my dick.” Daddy from Mandrill Monkey stroked his chin.“God damn it, Daddy.” “I am only telling the truth. My dick can feel it.” He had no remorse, no shame.“Please don’t talk about that in the open, I guess?”“About what? Dick? Why? Because we have ladies here?”“Yes, and it is inappropriate.”“Why? They can talk about their vajayjay if they want to.”“Damn it, Daddy! Stop it!” Captain clasped his mouth and dragged him away.The rest of the Mandrill Monkeys were cackling as if there was no tomorrow. “After analyzing the movement of the

    “Sniff… really?” Phantom rubbed his nose against Shadow’s neck.“Yes. I can’t live without you. I swear.” She tried to appear convincing.“But will you die?” He was adamant about Shadow’s life.Why wouldn’t he? He was there when Shadow was at the bottom. He was there when she was suffering. He was there when she died hundreds of times. He could do nothing but watch her from afar. He had no physical body nor the capability to protect her. He was a mere artificial intelligence living in the system. “Phantom… I will cease to exist following the promise of the previous lord. Abah. I can’t die before that. My body has been programmed to do so.”It was her sad life. Cease to exist. She would never experience death like others. She would cease to exist when the time was calling. Her death would be a mysterious death. A sudden death. Abah had promised her up to 1000 years old. She knew her body couldn’t hold that long. According to her calculation, she had 800 years more to go. Plus and min

    “Have you improvised their ID card or something?”Shadow turned her head at her desk. Phantom was seen sitting on top of his folders, crossed legs, and caned his chin with his hand. He was grinning wide.“You’re here?” Shadow rested her head on the visitor chair in front of her desk.Phantom’s foot was wagging back and forth, right in front of Shadow. Yet, the girl said nothing to reprimand him. She was just extremely.Phantom waved his hand, some sort of greeting or whatever.“No, the upgraded version. As soon as the card seeped into him, his whole existence was inside the system.” She answered.“When did you develop the new version?” It piqued Phantom’s interest.Shadow merely scoffed and shut her eyes. “Mind checking how well the information settles in?” She meant all the information regarding Amari’s body.It felt like time stopped momentarily. Phantom lost his smile. The usual playful vibe was killed. Phantom killed it. Anger gradually flamed inside his eyes.“Whatever you mean
