Chapter 56 Bargain

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Clearly I wasn’t thinking when I asked Byron to come with me. Not only was he the known demigod around here, but he can’t randomly walk in public without his identity being known. 

“Is my wig crooked?” He asked me for the nth time now.

I gritted my teeth and drew a hand across my face in frustration. “I told you. Your wig looks fine.” I said through gritted teeth as we continued to make our way through the crowd. “You should have told me about this earlier. I would have brought Rachel instead.”

“But Skyr told me to watch over you.”

“I don’t know what made you guys think that I could not handle myself being in the marketplace. It’s just like being in the groceries!” I si

    “I have something to say.” Skyr suddenly said the next day before we started our morning drill. We all stood in attention with me being in one of the front rows - as usual because of my height. “Starting from today, I will no longer handle your training. Instead, it shall be conducted by Commander Duncan.” At the mention of his name, Duncan suddenly walked towards him and faced us.I tried to keep on the emotion of my face in check as I realized what was happening. Everything was transpiring so fast that it seems that we just couldn’t take a break. I almost forgot about the fact that Skyr was going to get a promotion and leave. Now that I was being reminded of it again, it felt like reality dumped a bucket of cold water over my head.I fought the urge to cast my gaze on the floor because it is disrespect

    “Give me more of that round thing.” Byron said eagerly as he watched the dumpling getting cooked in the pot.“No no no, Lord Byron. These dumplings are human food. I don’t think it would be suitable for your taste.” Jack scooped out a few dumplings from the pot and placed them in his bowl. Byron wasn’t happy about it that he purposely swirled the contents in the boiling pot.“Ha!” He smirked at Jack.“And they all say that I am the childish one around here.” Jack grumbled.“Maybe I should put you both on a separate table. A kiddie table.” Skyr said.“My Lord, here are some fresh hot dumplings. Would you like some noodles as well?&rdquo

    “What was that? Who screamed?” Byron jumped onto his feet in full alert as screams erupted all around us. I had to grab the back of Byron’s collar just as he was about to run towards the location of the screams. “What are you doing, Nathalia? People are in danger! Let go of my hand.”I sighed. All I want to do right now is to run and hide. We were still at the entrance, lining for our ticket and people were already staring at us. “He’s...roleplaying. He can be such a weeb.” I said and forced him to come closer to me so I can whisper in his ears. “They’re just having fun! It’s called an amusement park for a reason!” I hissed.Byron seemed to realize his mistake and finally calmed down. He looked up at the roller coaster that could be seen from where we were. “So tha

    I was disappointed. It has been a week after our trip to the amusement park and I haven’t seen Byron or Skyr within those days. It’s not like we all got into a fight. It’s just that we were only following Skyr’s orders.To lay low for a little while.Because of that I didn't even get to train with Byron and learn more tips and tricks on how to control my gifts. Thankfully, aside from my abnormal strength as they would call it, my other gifts only manifest when I am near sea creatures.But I did confirm another gift though. Breathing underwater.It did not sit well for me at first because I grew up on land. I do not find breathing in water natural or even possible. That was why I did it whenever I took a bath. I changed my

  • Submerged Land   Chapter 61 Royal Sentinels

    Black cloud surrounded an island. An eerie and ominous aura emitted from it. There were no signs of life there. No grass, no tree, and not even a single fish would roam around the island. It was like the island was dead.Isolated from the world for a reason.‘Come to me.’ It beckoned. I felt a sudden strange pull, but I resisted. The voice was kind but there was something about it’s tone. The acidity that it kept hidden. ‘Master, it is me. Come and set me free.’No.I tried to say the words out loud but I cannot seem to do that. I have no voice.My vision suddenly darkened. Then I saw three strikes of lightning followed by the appearance of those glowing red orbs glaring at me

    My footsteps echoed inside of the stoned floor of the building. Numerous advanced looking drones floated in the air and guards were lined everywhere. Two double doors waited for us at the end of the hallway that automatically opened as soon as we entered.A long table greeted me. At the end of it was a man with long white hair and very pale skin. His eyes were almost white and his fingers were long and bonney. He smiled when he saw me. “Ah, Nathalia Trayce, welcome. Please join me for breakfast.”I saw the two royal sentinels giving me a warning look before I addressed the man in front of me. “Lord Ylgarr.” I bowed. “It would be an honor.” I am not sure of the formalities here, but I am just going on instinct and bowing. I wasn’t sure at first if the person was exactly Lord Ylgarr, but by the small c

    Byron squeezed my hand to prevent me from saying anything. Among all other things, I remembered that there was one thing that we have not shared with the others. It was the fact that we know about the burned marks.And it was an advantage that Byron doesn’t want to let go. Well, assuming that it would help us.“I thought Atlanteans never got any scars. Why do you have one?” It was a smart and safe move coming from him. It would clear some doubts on why I hesitated when I saw his mark.Ylgarr immediately covered his chest with the hanging cloth from his torn suit. “It was a war from a long time ago.” He answered and pointed a look at Byron. “Byron, for now I will overlook this simply because I am at fault for provoking your sister as well.

    I have no sense of time here, but I do know when a day would pass. There was a schedule for when I would eat and when I would bathe. If I want to use the toilet in between, I would simply need to call for them with the red button. The only time that I ever get any visitors is when Byron would drop by.About six escorts would pick me up everyday to take me to the bathroom and then back to the holding cell where they are keeping me.Byron rarely visits. It was making me anxious just thinking about him all the time that I started doing some training on my own. Nothing too strenuous. Just the normal exercises that we do to keep in shape.But if this really keeps up, I might lose my sense of combat. There’s only so much that a few pushups and cardio can do.

    “Take her. Quick!” I felt Skyr lowering me down into the sub as Byron reached up to grab me. I heard the lock clicking above us before Skyr started yelling again. “Get us out of here. Now.”“What about the others?” Byron asked after he lowered me to the cold ground.I reached out to touch Byron’s shoulders and shook my head weakly at his question. Both of his brows shot up in dismay before he bit his lips and started rummaging through the first aid supply kit.I felt the sub starting to move and lowering itself into the water. “Can’t this thing go any faster?!” Skyr demanded.“This is the fastest that we can go. My allies are still opening the gate!” Trei yelled.

    “Is the afterlife really that boring that you decided to come back to life?” I grinned as I pulled Skyr back to his feet.“More or less. I heard that you got captured and figured that it is not the time for me to die just yet. More importantly, we have to keep on going.” He ruffled my head and pointed at the attic from where he came from. “Come on. Let’s get out of here.” He helped me climb up on the air vent first before climbing in himself and closing the vent. “Move over so I can guide us.” He whispered.I pressed myself closer to the wall and allowed Skyr to crawl past me. The vent wasn’t as narrow as I thought because we could even crawl without hunching our backs, which is a huge relief since I am a bit claustrophobic.

    I was doing some sit ups when an unexpected visitor arrived. At first, I was smiling because I thought that it was Byron. But when I saw Lord Ylgarr entering along with 4 freir sentinels, my smile dropped and was replaced with a frown.“Took you a while to visit. I was starting to wonder if I actually scared you.” I smirked when I saw his face forming a frown.“Insolence!” One of the sentinels tried to grab my shirt but I grabbed his arm first and twisted it.“I may be insolent but I am still a demigod. Do not think for one second that I couldn’t break this arm of yours.” I threatened him before letting go of his hand. A look of pure hatred spread across the man’s face as he returned to his position. He was probably trying to act cool to threaten me.
