Thirty minutes passed after Lillian gave the medicinal porridge to her father. She and Phillip knelt on each side of the bed, scrutinizing their father's face, waiting for his eyelids to open. Only the two of them were in the room, still waiting patiently for this moment. The female elves only lasted one minute because they still had a lot of work to do, Louise and Otho took less than five minutes out of boredom.
Meanwhile, Wiggy just gave up a few minutes ago, after his stomach growled. The siblings were very curious about each other's experiences, but the desire to watch the father wake up was more prominent, so they delayed telling the story. Wiggy went into the medical room to examine them, then shook his head.
"I'm afraid that once your father opens his eyes, he will pass out again when he sees your faces that close."
No answer.
"How about dinner? The Elves are so understanding in making tonight's special menu. They know we've had a tough day." Wiggy
No need to hear twice to know whose voice it is. Phillip and Lillian ran as fast as lightning, while the others followed. Arriving at the health room, the female elves were clustered in the corner, trembling. In front of them, a tall man, no less terrified, held up a stick of wood which turned out to be a cut leg of the table. The man's face looked shocked half to death, his red hair drenched in sweat. His eyes were rounded, focused only on the strange little creature until he didn't notice that there were five pairs of eyes watching from the doorway."DAD!" The Grace sibling spontaneously ran to hug their father from both sides."Phillip, Lillian?" For a moment Harold smiled, but the smile immediately disappeared as his hands swiftly embraced his children. “Stay close to me! These creatures are very dangerous! They are Falsies, a threat to humans!""Calm down, Daddy, they are all good Falsies. They are our friends!" Lillian tried to calm her father's tens
A plume of dust clouded the blue sky as a boy's body fell on the barren ground. The seventeen-year-old boy immediately approached to help his protege get up."Good, Edmund. Your abilities are getting more and more astounding, you could beat me one day." He patted the boy's blond hair and clothes which were covered in fine sand, “but remember, don't attack too rashly. Now and then you have to stop for a moment to study your opponent's movements, and look for weaknesses. Understand?""I understand!" Edmund nodded with a gleam on his face.The youth turned to another boy outside the arena. He was asked to pay attention to the fight, but right now the boy was busy nibbling on the stalks of the weeds while watching the horses run across the grass."Edwig, have you noticed your brother?"The boy with the turbid blonde hair flinched slightly. "What?""I told you to pay attention, why are your eyes wandering around?""Sorry, Edgar. I fe
As the red object or creature became more visible, King Ethelwulf's body turned soft, looking like a cocoon that harbored a demon butterfly. The creature was not his father in the first place. When it turns into a pile of skin, then the creature's true form will be seen. A mage with crimson skin with greasy bat wings. His nose was as long as a banana's, with a hideous grin studded with ragged black teeth.“Why should I be the King of a stupid land, if I can rule the whole world!” he continued hoarsely."Who are you!" this time Edmund shouted. The anger and hatred that was so great made him recover his strength."I am the strongest, the most powerful, the one like no other." The witch said.Knowing that the disgusting creature had killed his entire family, Edmund rose with a jolt and lunged at the wizard's body. However, he just walked past her and fell to the floor. The wizard giggled mockingly, a laugh so sinister that it completely shattered
One day had passed since Wiggy's army had gathered in the Northern Territory. Harold was quick to recover, quick to adapt too. The man helped the Elves a lot in making hundreds of tents, as well as various other necessities for living in the forest, considering that there were so many Dwarves and Fauns. The Southern Kingdom did not fuss all day so that they could carry out all activities in peace.Night comes quickly when time is spent having fun. It was now a full moon, the light of the night goddess shone on the earth brighter than usual, but believe it or not, it was still outclassed by the creatures of the Northern Territory. Mushrooms lit up, the light from the bodies of the Pixies, and the Faun's horns glowed with colors. Everyone gathered in the open space where Wiggy used to play or practice swordsmanship, accompanied by a bonfire and some roasted sweet potatoes.Actually not all of them. Phillip, Lillian, and their father said goodbye to bed early. Wiggy allow
Days passed into weeks, then months, but the awaited wedding never took place. Some Falsies started to forget their purpose of coming to the Northern Territory. In truth, the dwarf Northern Falsies couldn't remember so many things. What's more, the flaming mushrooms are not healthy, their light is dim, occasionally turning off and on making the eyes hurt. The flying bats crashed into everything around as if they weren't nocturnal animals at all.Meanwhile Wiggy, Louise, and Otho met almost every night. Make lots of backup plans in case the master plan doesn't work. Now and then, a swarm of Pixies was sent to the Southern Kingdom to monitor the situation, only to bring back empty news. Until one day everyone was tired of waiting. It's been ten nights no meeting including today. The residents of the Northern Territory ate dinner as usual, then went about their
Louise was supposed to lead the Falsies in the guerrilla, but instead, she had to be guided. Apart from the Elves and Dwarves who were good at camouflage, Louise—like any other knight—was used to facing opponents face to face. Plus her large and inflexible body makes it even more difficult to jump over swamp stones or dodge branches without making noise.Louise's crowd was still intact until they arrived at the Eastern castle, a towering solid stone fortress that was dully filled with thorns and dense trees. The girl immediately looked for the stone arrangement that Wiggy had previously shown at the meeting.As planned, Louise pressed a loose rock until it protruded inward, then opened a small gap in the fort. Louise immediately entered followed by the Falsies after. Darkness greeted, some Pixies gave off a dim light, the weakening of the m
Lillian checked all the various medicinal herbs in the backpack, all of which had been prepared since two months ago. While the others were busy practicing their war skills, the girl finally accepted the title of healer gracefully. Whatever makes her useful she will pursue. Just in case, The Twinster hung from either side of her hips. The girl returned to face the main gate of Edmund castle.Not knowing how many hours they had spent hiding in a crevice of a former swamp covered by a giant tree trunk across, peeking like foxes. The Elves and Dwarves in the back waited seriously, silently, without movement, not even the sound of breathing. Lillian is flanked by Phillip on the left and her father on the right. Since then, Lillian had been the only one moving around a lot, occasionally checking things out, looking up at the sky, and most often opening and closing her medical bag."Daddy, what time is it?" It was Lillian's seventh question while waiting.The red-hair
Tears continued to roll down Lillian's cheeks as her hands deftly applied various medicinal herbs to Wiggy's body. They were in the trunk of a giant pine tree where Lillian had evacuated the Elves. Wiggy was lying on a thin sheet of leaves wearing only short cloth pants. The young man's body was covered in dark blue patches, carvings like electric shocks were visible from the neck to the left side of his chin.Lillian traced Wiggy's butterfly wings which now looked more like tattered rags, and that made her cry even more pitiful. Lillian poured the bottle of healing potion into Wiggy's mouth a second time. After that, he refreshed the young man's murky blonde hair, feeling his hot body as well as his short, irregular breaths.“You are fine… you will be fine!” Lillian muttered with trembling lips. Her hand moved to embrace Wiggy's arm, her eyes closed as her mouth kept muttering, “Don't worry, you'll be fine. You'll be safe."The pixies t
"Keep believing, then one day your wish will come true"Gray clouds rolled in the sky, moving sluggishly with the gusts of wind that froze to the bone. No one could see, behind the thick clouds thousands of stars were scattered, twinkling like gems. If you look closely, two special stars differ, because of their size and their glow. One smaller, one bigger, side by side as if holding hands.It happens very rarely, very, very rarely. It was said that when the two stars appeared, someone special from Neverland was visiting. White blankets covered the entire city of London, they even covered the tower of Big Ben like a hat, making the seconds muffled even though they still sounded faint. The long hand points to twelve, while the shorthand points to ten. Evening.Activity on the main road has been very quiet, only a few cars still dare to roam the slippery asphalt in winter. London had not changed since the last time Peter had visited. I don't know when it was, he c
The Advantage of Two PrincesIn the past few months, the scene every morning in the Southern Kingdom was dominated by elves working full of joy. Repainting, updating foundations, mowing down parasite plants, sewing window curtains. Everything that can be changed for the better they will do without being asked. The Elves work every day from early morning until late at night, even they take the initiative to change working hours so that renovation activities do not stop for a full 24 hours. Thanks to the Elves, the Southern Palace had almost returned to its new look in just three months. The Southern Palace became clean, sturdy, and luxurious, as a Palace should be.However, there is one room that has never been renovated once, namely the top room in the tallest tower, aka Edmund's room. Every time the Elves tried to get in, Edmund would yell at them, sending the poor Falsies into a frenzy. Before, no one had ever dared to enter Edmund's room even in their imaginations.
Louise's steps echoed as she climbed the glass-clear steps one by one. Unusually, the Lady was not wearing her oversized armor. The girl was wearing a simple long orange dress, her golden hair was neatly tied, leaving a strand of hair on both sides which made her pouting face look a little cuter. It's not easy to make a Lady Louise from Silverwall look feminine. Thirty minutes ago, Pepa and the other four Fairies under the care of Angel Tiffany had to fight hard to put all these things on Louise's body who was constantly struggling to protest."We're asking for just this one day, Lady...""It's better to cut off my leg than to have to use that torture tool!" Louise screamed as soon as she was asked to wear high heels.Eventually, the Elves gave in, then allowed Louise to wear calf-length cloth boots. The girl also repeatedly rubbed her red lip color roughly, too¬ rejecting the blush on her cheeks. The only feminine thing that Louise volunteered to wear was a
The moon looks graceful perched in the clear sky, some thin clouds cover, instead of disturbing it even adds to its beauty. More and more hopes for Phillip when doing his hobby looking up at the night sky. Either the brightest twinkling star, a transparent wall, or land above the clouds. The difference is, there is no sadness or tears this time, only hope and a lot of longing. Someone dragged a stool next to him and sat down with him. Lillian is also one of the reasons why Phillip has been crying less and less lately, the burden on his heart feels a lot lighter when he shares it with his little brother."Missed him again?" whispered the girl."Every night ...."Lillian looked hesitant to speak but finally got up the courage. “Phill, can I ask you something? I've wanted to ask this for a long time.""What is that? Just say it."“Um… Louise said what when she finished hugging and kissing your cheek.”Phillip turned his
An arrow shot so fast that it looked like a flash of shadow. It bounced off the ground not far from a forest squirrel, which flew away as another arrow hit the oak trunk. Twice escape from death was enough to convince the squirrel to return to its nest in the top of the pine tree. Two men approached each of their arrows, one of them picked an arrow from the ground, while the other one who looked older just lamented at his arrow, it pierced too deep into the trunk of a tree, it took the strength of a giant to pull it out.“At least mine landed closer to the squirrel. Your aim sucks, is it because you cut your hair, huh?” said the curly-haired youth while making a grin that could irritate his interlocutor."Judging from the strength of the stick on the trunk of this tree, my arrows would have killed the squirrel if it hit. While yours is bouncing on the ground, the squirrel will just feel like it's being massaged." The icy-blue-eyed man smiled no less satisfi
The sun was always shining brightly in Silverwall City, a cool breeze wafted the triangular flag on the roof of the knights' tents. A series of white clouds decorated the sky as if celebrating the happy ending. When Miranda vanishes and the sun rises majestically, the exiled Falsies lose hope and decide to retreat, deeper into the unspoiled West of Tomer Forest. That way, the Northern Falsies and the knights knew they had won. Trumpets sounded, accompanied by cheers of grateful joy.Tomer Forest was illuminated by the morning sun, showing clearly the impact of such a terrible war. The corpses were scattered, weapons with no masters were piled up covered in blood, and many plants, especially giant trees, were destroyed horribly. Hard work awaits, little by little all the chaos will be resolved. However, the first thing the knights of Silverwall and the Northern Falsies did was offer condolences to those who died. The extinction of the Gnomes and Fauns was the most heartbreakin
Miranda felt the temperature around her rise until her whole body was sweating. So hot, almost unbearable. The woman noticed, apart from the purple glow, a golden yellow light also dominated her, even brighter and almost like the heat of the sun. The glow in Miranda's hands shrunk to the size of a marble, then popped like bubbles. The magician turned with his head up, then was stunned with wide eyes. The perfect circle in the sky was no longer black for some time, but all of its light was only directed at Miranda, it looked like a glowing bridge to heaven.However, that's not what makes the magician not move. A woman came down from the bridge of light, her dress was wide covering her legs, dominated by shimmering white and gold, with a collar that flaunted two delicate and beautiful shoulders. Her shiny black hair fell to her ankles, swelled as if she were underwater, as did her entire body. Every inch of the figure above was perfect, but that beautiful appearance also looked
Phillip's ears were ringing, his eyes were blurry as he looked around with narrowed eyes. Lillian and dad, that's what's on his mind right now. As soon as the ringing in his ears subsided, Phillip heard a woman's moans and became very panicked. However, he soon found his sister kneeling in front of their father, looking fine. Phillip rushed over to find his father passed out on his stomach."Phillip, help me turn Father!" Lillian exclaimed when she noticed her sister's presence. Without further ado, they turned Harold over together, then Lillian took out a bottle of healing potion to pour into her father's mouth. "Father's head hit a pretty big rock.""Is dad hurt?" asked Phillip, his hands busy wiping his sister's gritty face."It doesn't look too seriously other than a bump.""Thank God. I have to find another one. You please take care of Father, if you can move a little to the side."As soon as Lillian nodded, the young man hurriedly got up to c
The clatter of horseshoes one after another filled the void of the night, the moon faithfully following their journey even without light. Miranda, up there was still flapping with Edmund in her arms. The lush trees began to dwindle, replaced by a stretch of cliffs. Some are very tall, but some are just piles of flat stones. The three horses climbed the small hills that also dominated the land in the area.Their journey just ended when Miranda decided to stop at one of the high cliffs and immediately shrunk her bat wings. The woman gasped for air, her body turned completely red and covered in wattles. The sorceress tried to hide her surprise when she turned around to find her enemies still following her. He tucked his hair behind his ear, cleared his throat with his trademark smile.“You guys are just in time to witness our wedding! After my full strength is restored, it is you who have the honor of tasting it first!”“There is no reason to end
