BOM!!! She received the attack head-on. The impact force from that destroyed the land and curved the ground.Without indulging her pain, Shadow emerged from the massive hole and keeled over to the floor to spit out a heavy gasp.“Fuuuuuuu–” She felt dizzy Bzzzt!!Her head was ringing loudly and her breathing quickened. Her vision grew just a bit fuzzy. “Shit!” She lightly shook her head. Like it or not, she must remain alert. She had no time to stay here and catch her breath. When she raised her head, she spotted thousands of ice and fire arrows in the mix in the air above her head. It was a present from the handsome man and the buffy dude. She didn't have time to stand up or even breathe properly as the arrows that filled up the sky shot down accurately to her current position.Zzip!!BO– BOM!Every arrow hit the ground without hitting the actual target. Kling! Kling! Kling!The sound of the clashing metals echoed, showing that the dagger was deflecting away the magic arrows
What?” Lifting her brow in wonder. Dennis gestured at his own face, quite speechless to answer her. Meanwhile, Vilfredo licked his tongue and swallowed his thick saliva. In their eyes, Shadow was insanely cute. Her petite body was extremely masculine but feminine, at the same time, her face was cute and alluring. She was both. Her lacking eyebrows, hooded eyes, wavy hair, and tiny lips. She was perfect. Despite how small she was, she was extremely powerful. Her punch was compacted with fierce power. There was something about her bones and stuff, but they weren’t hardcore enough to study every structure of her body. And oh well, she was on the smaller side but, perfect for their lord, nonetheless. If Shadow knew about their thoughts, their survival rates would hit below the bottom line. “What?!” She growled but still smiled. A kind of smile that wanted to commit murder.In a daze, they shook their heads but their eyes were stagnant on her.“What?!” She frowned and pouted her lip
“What the hell is going on?” Pink flapped her paper fan, murmuring alone as she descended from the sky with Blue.“Heiya!” Jenny waved her hand at both of them.Pink narrowed her visible eyes and shut her fan before rudely pointing it at her. “Girl, I saw you. You contributed nothing in this battle.” She said in an accusation tone.Yet, Jenny raised both her hands and waved them as if she was caught red-handed.“Sad, sad. You got me, Pink Bunny. Boo boo. What should I do? Should I cry to solve this problem?” She didn’t even back down. Pink glared at her, narrowing her eyes at the lady.However, despite the pressure inside their tone, the atmosphere between them didn’t even subdue. Hence, no one that knew them was worried. “Ugh! I need my beauty sleep!” Blue blindly grabbed anyone in front of him with his eyes half-closed.“Here!” “Great!” He blindly slumped on that tall body, putting all his trust in that unknown body that seemed familiar.Thankfully, Sly was there to be his cushi
“We can’t complain, can’t we?” Sly turned his head to some desolate place, waiting for something.“Your growing up story is always traumatizing.” Aiden shuddered when he thought about it.“Our story is part of our history. We, sometimes, look back at it and be proud. We survived. By any means. That’s all that matters.”Aidan shut his mouth and looked away. It was so awkward to continue asking for a complete story when the trauma was still haunting them.It was as clear as the sky. “Jenny has a daddy issue. Pink has a speech issue… I mean… cursing issue.”Suddenly, Sly was kind enough to expose them. Unprovoked.“Fuck you!” Pink shouted at the back which was immediately addressed by him.“See? That’s what I meant. Her sweet voice camouflages her cursive words. I don’t know what to do with her.”“Brother Sly! I don’t appreciate your blatant disrespect.”“It is not disrespectful if I only state the truth. You must learn to know what is disrespectful, and what is stating an opinion. Clea
After she reunited with her family, she passed out for two days straight. Next to her were Jenny, Pink and Dhia, sleeping side by side. On the floor.Shadow woke up with a fresh smile. Clearly, she was happy. She didn't have to deal with the aftereffects of the battle. The usual job scope that she had to cover when she was in power in the Underworld. With stretched limbs, she smiled big and said, “being jobless is the best.”She rolled to the side, left and right, and giggled. She had escaped Jenny’s death hug at one point and laid on her perfect soft bed.Even so, she didn’t mind sleeping on the floor with the rest of her sisters. The floor was already comfortable. The maids put on a thick comforter for their comfort. Three minutes after that, she walked away and washed up. She returned quietly to the room to get dressed.“Make it hurry and keep quiet. My sisters are still sleeping.” She spoke low with the maids that were assigned to help her.“We do as you say, Your Holiness.”Sha
“But you said it is a single-use item, right…? It means that…” Aidan swallowed.“This item will not be usable afterward, right?” Firash blinked at his brother before turning his head to Shadow. Shadow continued to massage her head. “That’s the thing.” She refused to further her statement after that.“Lord Holiness. Please tell us. What is the use of these items? It looks dangerous enough for us.” Priscilla tried to maintain her calm demeanor even though she was internally freaking out right now.Shadow clenched her jaw and bravely flipped open the book as the red glow emitted from the book. “Shadow!”“Sister!”Aidan and Firash weren’t sure about this.Ignoring them, Shadow recalled what she had learned from her previous superior named Uncle Zan. Priscilla and Midas looked at her with full expectation as they waited for what she had to say.Shadow continued on. “Frankly, I am not so sure myself. These relics give off a certain energy that my body is accustomed to. It is so wicked bu
“So, when is the right time–” “This afternoon. In my office.” She cut him off and went straight down to business.Midas stopped his pen movement and froze for two seconds before raising his head. “This afternoon?”Shadow nodded.“Today?”Nodded again.“Today… afternoon?”She clicked her tongue. “I am sure I am pretty much clear about what I want. Is my command that hard, Midas?” Midas promptly shook his head and raised both of his hands. “Please forgive me but, Your Holiness. Today is a bit…”“Why?” Midas turned his head at Priscilla, silently asking for backup. His behavior wasn’t subtle, however. Therefore, it piqued Shadow’s curiosity.“My Lord, we believe you need to attend the meeting between the tribe leaders,” Priscilla answered in his stead.Midas nodded his head desperately.She raised her brow. “Why should I attend it? I am not the representative of those tribes. Just a mere princess.”“And also The Holiness, Your Holiness,” Midas added the omitted title.“You’re the repr
“What is this corrupt mana you’re talking about, my love?” He wrapped his massive fingers around Shadow’s arm.“You do know what is corrupt mana, right?”“Mana stones that are exposed to the sacrificials’ blood after the ritual,” Julia answered her, knowingly. She grunted low.“Wizards!” Malikul breathed out angrily.“Correct. Corrupt mana is the sacrificials’ blood after the ritual that is led by the wizard. Or wizards, I don’t know.” “That… that…”“So vicious.”Julia gasped and Malikul gulped his saliva.She extended her hand, and reached out her hand but stopped midway. Putting respect on Julia, she wore the special gloves and proceeded.She quickly flipped through the pages. She continued to speak after looking through all the pages as if she didn’t just consume the story this morning.“This is the story of a hero and a villain. Very typical one.”“A typical hero and a villain story? I am not so sure about that.” Malikul tilted his head unsurely.Of course, the original contents
