“What is going on? I am a bit confused here.” Ali whispered next to Malikul.Ibrahim listened tentatively silently. He was inclined to believe his daughter had a reason to get so mad. Whatever she said would be presumingly correct and he had nothing to against it. To him, Shadow was never wrong and if she was ever wrong, she was actually right. Whatever it was.Juviana, Miley, Julian, David, and Nathan watched Shadow quietly, controlling their breath, and chased her not far behind, putting a distance. For them, their mental safety was of utmost importance. Her rumors weren’t an exaggeration, if anything, people downplayed them a lot.She wasn’t a sadistic freak, but a silent storm that potentially killed them if they weren’t careful enough.They took off to a foreign kingdom as soon as they were summoned. Best believe they heard no explanation of some sort but her strained voice of her was enough to keep them on their toes.“Is she always… like this?” David gossiped next to his count.
“Where are we going?” Ali tried his luck once again after he was met with cricket.Again, Ibrahim leaned in, attentively listening to any answer.Malikul was unusually quiet down with hunched shoulders. His eyes filled with complicated thoughts though he wasn’t as moody as yesterday. Ali took it as a win. Usually, it would take Malikul more than three days to calm down and converse as usual.“Daddy, uncle,” Shadow replied to them, however.Her voice didn’t indicate anything. The covered face also gave nothing to them.“Familiar with this altitude?”They didn’t have to look around to see what the altitude was. They instinctively knew where the altitude was taking them. In fact, the people behind them also knew. Because this latitude brought them exactly to where they wanted to go. “I don’t really know where we are but I’m familiar with the latitude,” Ibrahim said thoughtfully.“We are at the highest ground, crossing the continent. It is not a western continent.”Nathan who just staye
It took them a few couples of minutes to enter the main vast area right at the center. Before they reached the center, the barrier became even stronger. Yet, Juviana and Miley easily dispelled it.“Don’t tell me…” A realization hit Juviana belatedly.“Yeah. She summoned us here because of the barrier.” Miley confirmed the suspicions.“Unbelievable.”“We also may have other uses. Brace yourself.” “Wow, the audacity.”“Accept your fate. We are here for purposes. We might need to attack the grey dragon as well.”“No.” Juviana’s eyes quivered.A dragon was powerful alone. They were facing the grey dragon which was famous for his nasty personality. Juviana refused to gamble her life but the one who led her by the nose was none other than Lord Holiness. As soon as they entered the barrier, the scenery changed once again. It looked like a pre-historical. The huge mansion was right in front of them surrounded by the garden in a circle shape, covering the whole mansion.Every tree branch, ev
“Shadow…” He mumbled Shadow’s name in a violent heartbeat.Shadow slung her arm at the top of her chair and crossed her legs. Her eyes showed no apologist as a smirk was evident on her face.“We should discuss why I poisoned you. We can’t let them misunderstand my intention.”In Nathan’s arms, the dragon still dared to rudely point his finger at Shadow with bloodshot eyes.“You want to kill me.” Accused him.Malikul silently snorted but enjoyed the drama. He knew his wife, she wouldn’t do it unless she had a reason to do so.“I have my reasons as well.” She defended herself when their eyes shifted to her, asking for clarification.“You… you… I don’t intend to traumatize you. I just… just wanted to scare you off. There’s no deep meaning in it.” “Yeah, because you intend to kill me from the get-go, not knowing that your son is in my favor.”“Nonsense!” He snarled.“It is not nonsense. You can ask him if you wish to. The previous king nearly knocked him out permanently. He fucked your s
Draco disappeared as soon as the issue was ordered and he was fully equipped. Making this place her own, Shadow sauntered around while followed by the rest of them. Julian and David’s bodies twisted in excitement as Shadow crashed one of the available chambers.It was a workshop room filled with expensive equipment.“Lord Holiness…” They twisted their bodies, eyes sparkled with excitement.Giving permission as it was her place, the dwarves disappeared inside the room with an excited roar.“What about us?” Juviana pointed at herself.“Please let us borrow the room,” Miley said elegantly, her eyes had already roamed around the room with a hint of astonishment. “Sure.”Juviana and Miley hopped excitedly and clapped with each other.“Yay!”Then, they rushed inside.Nathan was standing behind with hands placed on his navel, head cast down.Pap!His back was hit by Shadow. The lady who was already wearing the mask; smiled.“I’m not sending your dad to kill him.” She said in a cheerful ton
Ferdinand had a grief expression on his face. How’d you know?’ written all over their faces. Even if Ferdinand tried to be subtle, it wasn’t subtle enough for him.“Pardon me, I don't quite understand what you are trying to say here.” Ferdinand maintained his awkward smile.Draco regarded Ferdinand with a bemused expression. “Look who’s all grown up, trying to lie to me and all.”“... It’s been a while,” Ferdinand was dumbstruck, filling the silence with whatever words linked up on his tongue.“Sure.” Draco acknowledged his statement.“You look… powerful.” Ferdinand hadn’t seen the old dragon since the reign of the old tyrant king… no, a couple of years ago when he asked for the nails. Draco hadn’t aged a day, his skin covered in bright ink, his eyes liquid tar, his arrogant face.“You look so much like your father,” Draco noted. “The old tyranny who dares to injure my baby son.” He ground his teeth at the last sentence. “I hear they call you the Ambitious Emperor of The Unknown now.
Draco threw the unconscious Jamal over his shoulder and smacked his butt. His long hair was cut short to uphold the agreement.“Ugh~” The unconscious man grunted.It made Draco laugh sadistically while Ferdinand acted blind.“Our business ends here.” Ferdinand’s face was radiant the brightest while holding the fist of Draco’s hair.Draco cut half of his long hair, now it was shoulder length.Draco gazed at him, face unreadable. His beautiful long eyelids fluttered.Flap!His grey wings were instantly freed.“Thank you for the hair.” Ferdinand immediately bowed to the old dragon, face filled with happiness.Draco arrogantly stared at him before asking.“Son, have you fallen in love?”Ferdinand froze at the sudden attack.“It wasn’t only a colossal crush, innit?”Spot on! Ferdinand’s eyes moved around violently, looking anywhere except at the old dragon.“I can see that. She is cute, petite, and a great beauty. The kind of beauty that no one can ever possess.” Draco approved. “I’ve met
“Muahahahahaha.”“I love it.”“See… perfect.”“I love this so damn much!”The elves and the dwarves were buzzing with excitement in the early morning. Despite lacking sleep, they were as lively as ever.“Do you wish to inspect my new bow and arrows?”“Oh, sure, why not. In exchange, I’ll let you feel the greatness of the shield.” Miley offered her items and David followed suit.Miley held the small sphere in her hand and wasn't sure how to play with this so-called shield.“I don’t think this is shie– useful to me.” He studied it earnestly.“Supply your magic into the sphere,” Julian answered in his king’s stead, who was already making an adjustment to the bow. “Do you wish to make an adjustment, oh my hardworking king?” “I can still improve the durability of the bow.” He knocked the bow with his knuckle lightly. “Did you hear that?”Apparently, it created some sort of sound that only dwarves distinguished. Even if Shadow heard it, she wouldn’t know what. The sound was only visible t
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
