If I had my way things would have been better, how can we do anything here inside this cage? in the middle of the night, I heard a giant footstep, maybe it was time to cook their hostages, I whispered to myself, Casper was already fast asleep. "I know you are tired but how could you sleep with your hands shackled behind your back?" I said puzzled at how comfortable he is sleeping in that position."Clank!" one of the minotaurs hit something on the cage. He opened it and drag the two of us out of the Cage, I felt angry towards the minotaurs and pity for Casper whose head had hit the two bars of the enclosure."If only I'm not here to look for someone I would have put up a fight," I said to myself.They didn't mind removing our shackles as they set to burn us alive or rather grill us for breakfast."Hey, let me talk to your leader," I pleaded earnestly with the one that was tasked with killing us.he ignored me and continue making the woods placing them on each other while we watch."
On the warriors General Kingu's command, the warriors and soldiers match out of the capital in the middle of the night.they had planned to meet Empusa on the battlefield.Lucian had instructed them to take cover with the woods during the day and proceed with their journey during the night. it was nightfall when they got closer to the battlefield. Marek, Kingu, and Iyyar wondered if the spy sent had betrayed them by lying to them as they were no army of soldiers on the battlefield, only thirteen women stood with staffs in their hands pointed at them. you could guess at first glance that they are Empusa's minions."Should we approach them?" Iyyar was the first to break the confused silence."No!" Kingu objected, "it can be a trap, let's not walk blindly into one, he said."I hate waiting on my enemy to make their move, how many more surprises are we ready to take," unlike others marek easily lose patience over things.and he can be rash sometimes.they do not need to wait for more than
The battle took a gruesome sight as many soldiers lost their lives to those monster creatures.most of the werewolves had to use their power because it was not possible to turn without the full moon but their super strength is still in them. only the royal blood wolves can shift at any moment.Dylan was finding it hard to kill one single creature that had been trying to get to him.all he wants to do is break this barrier but the demon creatures won't let him, immediately they sighted him, they gathered him.Marek saw them surrounding Dylan and he fought his way to help him.the first one he was fighting tried to pierce his chest with his ugly claws as he push his hands forward with force, thanks to Dylan's werewolf ability as he flexibly dodges its claws, another flew up high making its way to push him to the ground, he lost guard for a moment and he was hit on his chest but the force only pushed him further away, he spat out blood from his mouth an impact from the hit.the one eye d
There were all in dilemma, none of the soldiers want to return to the battlefield and the demons were already running toward them aggressively. "Some of us had to return to the battlefield for others to escape," Marek said. Though Dylan does not support his decision they are all running out of time and he knew they had no other option. The soldiers all hesitate to agree with Marek as non of them utter a word. Dylan called Casper over and place the hand of Kingu around his shoulder, he made sure Casper was holding him, and right then he moved away from him and said to the others. "It is not bad to die for the sake of our brothers, we are brothers in combat, we fought because of the love we have for our realm and our family, we will see them again but for now let's finish what we are here for!!! Dylan's words of encouragement were not that motivating to Marek but to the other soldiers that were all there, as most of them pick up their weapons with a scream and darted headstrong towa
Lucian was restless after attending to the matters of the capital with the ministers, he went into the garden but could not get his mind to stop worrying.he wished he had joined the last troupes that went out of the palace.he had gulped down many cups of suiting tea but it was not helping.his gut kept telling him that everything was far from alright."Tell the guard outside to come to see me," Lucian said to one of the servants that came in with another kettle with cups of suiting herbs tea."Yes my lord," she said as she hurried outside.the guards came in and bow to him."My lord," he said."Any news from those that went to battle?" he asked."Yes, my lord," he said."Hurry and tell me!" he scolds him.the guard recoiled and lost his confidence as he started shaking from his knees down to his feet."They are on their way back my lord," he said."Why had no one told me yet!?" Lucian was mad, if something like that happens they are meant to inform me first, he thought."I'm sorry m
"How the hell did you let the alpha king brother escape!" she screamed descending her skull-made throne."I'm sorry, your leadership, we were too occupied to notice him," Nikkal pleaded."Occupied!, you all were too occupied to notice the Alpha king brother on the battleground, what other excuses are you all going to give!! Empusa raise a finger towards Nikkal and she went flying into one of the rocks in the cave, her forehead started bleeding immediately."How did the rest escape? " she asked with her eyes filled with fiery outrage. None of them dared to reply to her, for fear of getting burned by her wrath. without an ounce of sympathy, she elegantly walks towards the second lady with bright gold hair, on her knees in the same roll that Nikkal had been kneeling before Empusa use her supernatural force to throw her away.she use her staff to raise the lady's face, so she could look at her, Empusa's smoky shadow eyes peered through the lady, her blood had run cold making her shake v
"When we are done here, only then will you decide if he came to help or not," the old witch said."So what do you mean about the dark lord,""Empusa made a deal with the dark lord, to gain knowledge to power she sold her soul to the demon lord,"Everyone in that cave listened with rapped attention to the old witch."Empusa brought chaos to our realm with the help of the demon lord...""How did she get to the demon lord?" Lucian who had no patience to listen to the old witch finish her sentence asks."The demon lord was once one among the celestial gods but he turned evil so the other gods which are his brothers and sisters created a dark realm for him and his minions without his knowledge and trick him into going there, the portal was locked never to be opened by anyone," she explained."so what you're saying is that the dark lord is not even here in this realm right?" Dylan asked with wide eyes."No, he's not" she gave a short reply.Lucian was exasperated by this new information he
Clarissa sat down with her shoulder draped like it was going to fall away any moment from that time, she was sad and equally moody, She had gone to the palace earlier to ask about Iyyar and she was informed by the guards that he had joined the soldiers and warriors that had gone to war against Empusa's army, she had been feeling restless ever since she got back. "I hope he's fine," she said to herself. She felt the presence of Lucian, she made to trace his energy to him but after taking one step she recoiled and turn away, tears dripping down her eyes. "You betrayed him but want to go to him the moment you feel his presence, you disgust me, Rissa," she thought to herself, she walked as fast as her leg could carry her to her home. She went straight into her room and slump on her bed. Clarissa tries closing her eyes to nap but her thoughts keep running wild. She was so deep in thought that she thinks she was dreaming when that familiar scent of pine hit her nose. She was startled
