CHAPTER 26 (PART 2): KILL THE LANCER
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Arth went straight to their room and then sat on his bed. He took out Alice’s blue gem under his pillow. “I won’t let him get away from what he did to you, Alice.”
Late in the night it was, but he didn’t care. He had the urge to kill the general now than to wait, as he might be leaving the capital soon.
Donning his Blackwinter sword, Arth winced from the pain in his arms when he picked up the heavy weapon. He was not in the condition to fight yet, but he had to.
After preparing for his travel, Arth opened the door of the room, but then he stopped when he found Janshai standing outside. “Why are you here?” he said, looking away.
Janshai studied Arth from head to toe before answering. “You can’t go.”
“You’re not the one to decide for that.” Arth was about to walk through the doorway, but then Janshai put one hand on the wall to block his path.

“Where do you plan to go after this?” Silence followed, only to be filled by the crackling woods of the fireplace. Kael was sitting on the chair at the end of the table, looking at Tristan who had stood near the windows. “Back to my village,” Tristan replied shortly, gazing at the snowfall outside. Kael stared at the young man for a moment, then he nodded. He was dressed on his white long-sleeved garment, his chest and abdomen completely wrapped up with linen, covering the severe burn he had from his previous encounter with Lucas. He pushed himself up to his seat, then went to stand beside Tristan. He couldn’t walk properly because of his injured right leg. Their last battle had cost them so much … damage and loss. They lost Dain, Maester David, and the Grand Knights protecting him. Only three Grand Knights were left in the Order, but they’d been severely injured after they fought against tha

Darkness had filled Arth’s vision. One second he was at the throne room, shocked of the truth he had discovered, but now he found himself detained on the underground dungeon. The cell was a tiny confinement; windowless, only cold stone surrounded him, making him shiver.Arth hugged his knees, sitting on the dirty stone floor, tears flushing out of his eyes. He couldn’t help but cry and cry and cry after learning about the truth. Everything was happening so fast, as if it kept on getting worse and worse, as if it would never end. The death of Alice had already crushed his heart, but now, he’s suffering much worse than that.Arth wanted his anger to come out and kill the king because of what he had done … but he was already tired. He’s tired of his hatred … He’s tired of his thirst for revenge. That moment when he took the general’s life made him realize it wasn’t enou

Amidst the silence of the chamber, Chief Gregor took a deep breath before he spoke. “Your father was a brave and wise king … genuinely loved by all his people.”“I was there in Crown Galacer when the Legion attacked eighteen years ago. The bloody war had dealt a devastating loss for the north … He fought, Arth … He fought in the front lines,” the Chief paused to give a sad smile, “Lucas told your father he’s supposed to hide and evacuate … but he refused. King Letholdus had chosen to become a hero … a true brave king as he defended the people of Glacia. He sent your mother, Queen Diana, who’d also been pregnant with you, away from the war as much as possible.”Arth just listened, his head down, looking at his bloody hands. He had to bite his lower lip to stop himself from crying again.“Terrowin had planned it all long before. He too

“Are you sure about this, Chief?” Arth had to ask as they strolled down the cobblestone road. It was midday and the snow was falling lightly. Arth was wearing his usual blue cloak while the Chief was on his brown winter coat.“Sure about what?” Chief Gregor raised an eyebrow as he turned to Arth. Both of them had their heads covered by their hood to avoid being noticed.“About meeting the village Chief … What if he will turn us over to the king? We are all wanted in the entire country of Glacia … are you not worried?”“Calm down, son. Magus Jade is an old friend of mine.”“Magus Jade?”The Chief nodded. “That is what we call him. He’s a retired Grand Mage from the capital many years ago. We’ve worked together during my time as a Grand Knight serving the crown. Have no worries

“Did the humans win?”“Yes. However, there had been no record of how the humans won, Arth. But most people believe that it had something to do with the three Power Crystals … given by the Adentus—”“Wait … Adentus?”Jade sighed. “They are the three Supreme Deities … the Three Pillars of Divinity … the Three Points of the Triangle … the ones who created our world before the Age of the Empyreal Gods.”“So they’re like the gods of the gods we have now?”“Yes,” Jade replied. “Now back to our subject … the Adentus gave the Power Crystals to the three countries surrounding Galadhor.”“Three countries?” Arth asked. “Is Glacia one of them?”Arth looked at the map. Galadhor

At the early break of dawn, hundreds and hundreds of knights had already occupied the streets, scurrying on houses after houses in the entire Lower Ring. The citizens must’ve been confused, wondering about what the knights were looking for, as they had been searching door to door ever since last night.“Search every basement … every attic! He must still be here hiding in the Lower Ring!”Kael heard the knight shouting from far a distance as he and Tristan hid in a narrow alley.“Do you really have to come with me to Cold Hills?” Tristan whispered beside him as they leaned on the wall.“Yes. The king will no doubt kill me if I am seen here in the capital,” Kael replied, and then his gaze dropped to the ground. “Besides, I want to forget all of this mess I’m in … and just go back to my village … the village where I
Reclaim the Ice Crown (Blue Triangle Series #1) CHAPTER 31 (PART 1): STONE GLACIER RUINS
Before the Legion came to attack the north, Stone Glacier had been the home of the Aragon Family … the home of the frost dragons as well. It was once the wealthiest … most powerful city among all places in Glacia, as the mountains in its territory were rich in gemstones, sold at expensive prices for the making of arcane runes and jewels; rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and more. But it all came into ruins as the demons came out from the portal far north and brought chaos to the lands of Glacia.It wasn’t until the Legion had been forced to retreat to the Underworld that King Terrowin began establishing a base in Stone Glacier Ruins. But the only repair they’d been able to make were the walls … not the entirety of the city. That was all Arth could see as he finally glimpsed the high walls from the horizon. They had indeed fixed the walls, but the cracks and damages were still evident from one’s sharp eyes.&nbs

‘Is there even a limit to their numbers?’Arth thought. He took a quick glance at Lucas and Chief Gregor, witnessing their killing spree with both impressive power and speed. But still, more knights were coming.As he looked back, he spotted Luna and Janshai still climbing the incredibly high walls. Luna was piercing her arrows through the wall to serve as their steps in going up.“You’re wide open!” Arth heard a dark voice from a knight behind, but he was quick enough to spin his body, swinging his ice-dagger at the enemy’s neck. Blood spurted instantly from its opened throat, before the body hit the ground.The snow fell continuously, as they’d been moving farther to the north. After seeing Robert slaughtering every knight on his way, as if he was dancing, Arth came to realize he’s losing … He needed to kill more.&l

It was a grand festive night for the entire kingdom capital to celebrate the crowning of the new king. Arth had never been to a big celebration before, seeing lots and lots of people. He was seated at the dais of the Great Hall with tons of food on his own table. It was too much at least for him, so he just sighed and then sipped on his wine, looking around. The other three kings had already returned to their regions right after the ceremony had ended earlier, as they still had other responsibilities to attend to.Now that more people were present, the air had become warmer, filled with loud chats and laughs from the nobles and lords while they drank their liquor. The live music played by the talented musicians had made the Great Hall much noisier.“So this is what a feast is like,” Arth shook his head, watching a drunk noble dance over the table while his fellows laughed and clapped their hands, “It’s &

“How is it, My Prince?” The dressmaker lowered his chin, his eyes looking over his glasses.“It looks wonderful, sir. Thank you,” Arth said as he surveyed himself in front of the mirror. He wore a knee-length blue tunic of golden beadings. Beneath it was his white inner garment with two buttons undone to reveal his chest, tucked in his straight-cut black trousers.“Are you certain you do not want any jewelry, Your Highness? It’ll make you look more glamorous in the ceremony later,” the man said. “We have five boxes for you to choose from … some fine gold necklaces and diamond rings—”“It’s all good.” Arth smiled at the dressmaker and then looked again at the mirror as a servant was oiling his newly-cut black hair.The door of the dressing room suddenly opened.Looking through the mi

Arth cried and screamed from the pain … as the cold, rough earth was crushing his body in between. He exerted his arms, pushing both sides to prevent the ground from squeezing him, but hopeless it was … as it only made him bleed more, caused by the sharp stones against his skin.“Have no worries, for I shall take good care of your lands and—”Dethnar’s voice stopped as well as the ground, then followed by the demon cursing.“What’s … happening … now …?” Arth’s eyes fell heavier, but he still kept his consciousness.“You’re … a … demon …?! What are you?!” Dethnar spoke again from above, his voice shaking and mad. “You traitor! You are one of us … and yet—”“And you are a fool …”Arth

“The Demon King had ordered me to initiate the war by destroying the Power Crystal in the North,” Dethnar said, dark-blue flames covering his entire demon form. “This undead army of mine is just the beginning. After getting rid of the crystal I can now—”“I never asked for you to babble about your stupid plans, demon,” Arth cut him off. “You won’t be able to execute any of that. Now that you’re separated from Lucas, I can finally eliminate you from our world.”“Eliminate me?” Dethnar smiled wider in amusement. “You think you can beat me in my true form? You can’t even make a scratch.”“We’ll see,” Arth replied, then he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.‘This is it, father,’he thought.‘I’ll show them the true power of our

Draphiron’s wings created a powerful gust of wind on the high tower as its claws held on to the pillars, and then lowered its long neck for Arth to climb down. The dragon’s remaining alar, in the form of a blue spirit, had helped him reach Crown Galacer in a short time.“Thanks, Draphiron … thank you, father,” Arth whispered, rubbing the dragon’s neck before he jumped off and landed on the floor. The blue spirit slowly dissolved into strings of alar, flying away from the tower, then they all compressed together and finally exploded in the skies like fireworks.Arth turned around, studying the situation now. The first thing he saw was the cracked Power Crystal … with tiny fragments scattered on the floor. Nearly destroyed it was … that Divine Knight must’ve stopped the demon before it could shatter the crystal. Kael did his job well enough, holding off the demon befo

After rushing out of the dungeon, Kael led the whole group inside the citadel, sneaking, as they did not want to catch the attention of the ghouls scurrying on the palace grounds … and the undead beasts flying above.A symphony of darkness and silence welcomed them … and it was a bit strange as to why Kael found no ghouls inside.The armory was located on the third floor of the citadel, so they had to use the wide staircases. As they made their climb, they tried to keep the silence, but Kael was annoyed by the Chief’s son who kept on whispering to Gregor. Had Gregor not taught his son how to keep his mouth shut?When they reached the armory, Gregor and his son quickly got their swords back. “Where are we going now?” the Chief asked Kael as they stepped out of the armory.“The throne room,” Kael replied. They got back to the staircases and clim

“Are you sure about this? What if they attack Cold Hills?” Tristan asked as they rode their horses, the west gate of the kingdom capital rising from their view ahead. It was a half-day journey from Cold Hills after they spotted the blue beam piercing through the skies, coming from the far north.“Don’t worry,” Kael replied. “Our village will be fine. The winterbird from the citadel said that the enemies were only attacking straight towards the capital.”As they reached the western gatehouse, Kael could still see the destroyed portcullis he had caused by the explosion two days ago. He raised his head to the top of the curtain walls and found no knights on watch anymoreThe fort bell kept on ringing, like repeating thunder amidst the dark clouds; the alarm for evacuation. The skies had already turned dark … wind blowing hard against his face, carrying the scent

“No …” Once again he burst into tears, leaning his forehead on the cold floor.“I failed … all because of me … all because of my stupidity!”Arth could no longer see any hope of saving Glacia. His body was too exhausted, worn out to go after Lucas and stop him. He could not even stand a chance now that Lucas had the sword and the power of its curse. No one could stop him now. And even if there was someone, Arth was already tired of hoping.“So all of our efforts are wasted … our accomplishments with the team … with Alice … all are wasted for his selfish ambitions?!” Arth said to himself as he hit his own forehead against the floor. “Alice died for nothing …

“Watch out, boss!” Arth yelled.But before the claw of the dragon could strike, Lucas made a high jump to dodge. He waved his sword to land a quick slash, aiming at the beast’s head, but then it ducked and spun its enormous body, swinging its huge tail to strike him. Lucas couldn’t move, as he’s still on air, so he had no other choice but to block the tail with his arms crossed.The direct hit blasted Lucas away, slamming him against the stone wall, only to fall on the floor, coughing blood, leaving the wall cracked.Arth held his sword tighter. Despite its enormous size, Draphiron was undeniably fast.Even Arth himself couldn’t possibly react in time had he been in Lucas’ situation earlier.“Why does it keep on attacking us?!” Arth shouted.No … Why would it keep on attacking only Lucas? Not Arth … or J
