CHAPTER 87: End of The Passage
Shia wanted to collapse on the floor. Her head hurt and her heart felt stuffed.
How many times had she been through this? She had lost count at twenty, but the layers of realities that she was passing through hadn’t stopped yet.
She had been a murderer and deserter so many times in the past few hours – or was it days – that she couldn’t shed any more tears for those whom she had to abandon or to leave to be killed.
How many more of these scenarios must she overcome? She had been a mother, a lover, a daughter, a son, a criminal, and many more, and always, she needed to leave people who needed her and begged for her to stay, and their cries ate away at her soul. How long must she be so heartless?
Now, as she left another painful reality behind, she was immediately taken into another one...
Shia gazed at her palms, and frowned. Her nails were painted in pretty neon colors. They were new, so she shouldn’t try to wash dishes today. Of course, that

The Bride of the Would-be Demon King CHAPTER 88: Memories
“Who do you think I am?” Shia thought long and hard. She stared at the man’s pale face and his even paler hair that reminded her of corn husks; well, silver corn husks, that is. It didn’t seem to suit his muscular frame that towered over her. The most beautiful things about him were his eyes. His dark violet eyes were shining towards Shia like a pair of mysterious jewels. They looked misty though, as if he was on the brink of tears or suppressed elation. This man didn’t seem like the Sirion she had known, but somehow, he felt extremely familiar. It seemed to take her an eternity before she could finally answer his question, “I… I don’t know…” He sighed. There was a tinge of disappointment in his eyes, but she had seen it only for a second as his face had changed to a tender but more worried look. “That’s alright. Your memories do not seem to be back yet, but your power has been overflowing, which makes this journey of yours more dangerous. You
The Bride of the Would-be Demon King CHAPTER 89: This Time
As soon as she fell asleep in hell, the hot air and the smell of sand hit her face hard. Shia opened her eyes. There was a bit of haze, but somehow, she could still see things clearly. Suddenly, something nasty regurgitated from the pit of her stomach. She popped her head towards the open air of the moving caravan and threw out what she had for lunch. A smooth hand pressed over her back. “Shia, are you alright?” She looked back at her. She cannot believe it. It was the face she had missed all these months! “Mother!” She hugged the woman back very tightly. Her mother had coughed twice before she let her go. “Are you alright, dear? Does your stomach feel bad?” “I’m al-” she had meant to say that she was alright, but she had caught another nauseating smell, and she had to throw up again. “Did you eat something bad?” Her mother frowned. Her mother... wasn’t she dead? Shia shook her thoughts away violentl
The Bride of the Would-be Demon King CHAPTER 90: Trick
Stabbed in the neck – did she hear Khailis correctly? Langrion had been stabbed in the neck? Could it be?... Could it be that she had ended up stabbing him for real? “Let me see him...” Shia couldn’t stop the tears that fell down from her eyes like rainwater. “I need to see him, Khailis... Please...” “Sure, sure... I’ll arrange for that, but not now. You must rest. Your body is still too weak...” The worried look on Khailis’ face worsened when she saw her cry. “No, I must see him now... I need to see him, please...” Khailis bit her lips. She seemed to understand her struggle perfectly, but then again, she could see how Shia couldn’t even manage to sit herself straight. How would see react if she saw Langrey’s condition? “Alright, wait here... I’m calling them. Wait for me here.” Khailis got up from her side and exited the room. Shia slumped back into bed, her breathing far too laborious. How can Langrion suffer a wound
The Bride of the Would-be Demon King CHAPTER 91: Night Attack
Shia knew that everything she had seen thus far after being placed by Galahad at her own bed were all a dream, including now as she looked at Sirion sitting at the royal throne room of Gascone. “You’ll never win, Sirion,” she hissed at him. Despite knowing that these were all a figment of her imagination in the land of sleep, Shia still hated him to the core. He rose from his seat and walked towards her. “But I already have, deary... My plans had already been set into motion long before you had been aware of them. Did you not see my wedding gift for you in hell?” Shia’s heart stopped. Did Sirion know that she and Langrion had made the journey to the underworld? “Of course, deary! And now, I’ll be claiming your wedding night too...” As soon as she heard him speak those words, she gasped and opened her eyes. It was too dark for her to see anything, but she knew she was now in her room back in Teotroly. She heaved a sigh of relief. Howeve
The Bride of the Would-be Demon King CHAPTER 92: Accept Me
A few minutes before the attack, Gavil and Khailis’ lamp lights were still ablaze, and Khailis was pacing franctically around the bedroom floor. She bit her nails in alarm, and looked at Gavil who was also slightly anxious at the turn of events. The two of them asked leave from Queen Argylla to stay at the Temple of the Gods after Langrion and Shia’s wedding. Actually, it was Khailis who had asked of it. Although she knew she was growing Pauca eggs inside of her, she couldn’t stand the thoughts of her friends battling away for their dear lives at the temple while she was resting comfortably back at Gavil’s home. She wanted to be there when they wake up. They had been there for almost a week, and Khailis had almost had no time for rest that it became Gavil’s job to remind her to take naps and set aside some time to energize the eggs. Almost always, however, she was too tired to do it, and stories about her ‘neglectful actions’ have reached the ears of the Goddess of C
The Bride of the Would-be Demon King CHAPTER 93: The Aftermath
In the Temple of The Gods, Templar shot one arrow after another, but the number of people surrounding him seemed infinite. How can they pour in more and more like this towards him? What sort of magic had Sirion acquired to be able to create this army? After what seemed like an eternity of battling with the possessed bodies of temple servants, Templar was finally able to break through another door, or another wall, to be exact. He didn’t mean it, but in his haste to get away, he desperately blew a wall with his flame power. He hadn’t used this power for centuries now, and so the strength of it came as a surprise even to him. Thankfully though, he was able to create an opening from it. Now, he could escape the endless swarm of possessed army that was pursuing him. However, he didn’t know he was just about to enter another war. As soon as he stepped into the other side of the wall, he saw Prince Rahul and Goddess Eily looking at a dark figure by
The Bride of the Would-be Demon King CHAPTER 94: The Life I Like
Shia wanted to touch their sleeping figures, but she could see a thick film of grayish light hovering around them, and she knew it spelled something bad. She wanted to curse Sirion. “What are you doing to them? Remove that barrier!” “Dearest, sorry to disapoint you like this, but you aren’t the commander here,” he said softly towards her. Side by side with Khailis was another woman whom Shia had never seen before. She was dressed in a tunic similar to those worn at the temple, so she knew she was someone from Teotroly too. As soon as the woman heard her cries against Sirion, she stirred and immediately cursed when her eyes fell on them. “Sirion, what the -!” “Glad to see you too, Eily. I see your tongue is still as sharp as ever.” Shia gasped. Eily was the Goddess of Childbirth. Why did he bring her here too? Eily looked around her, and when she saw Khailis lying next to her, her eyes widened. “Damn you, this lad
The Bride of the Would-be Demon King Chapter 95: Golden Chance
“Extracting energy? What do you mean by it? What kind of process is it?” “Why... Why are you doing this?” Goddess Eily asked the boy. “I understand your master, but how about you? You’re human. Don’t you know what Sirion is planning to do? He is planning the annihilation of the human race!” Shia gasped internally. Sirion was planning to end the human race? That was his grand goal? She regretted what she had said earlier to him about going though with his plan as long as he leaves her and Langrion out of it. How insane has Sirion been to even dream of such an abomination? The gray-haired Gilyan looked back at Eily with calm eyes that it was a little frightening. “Humans are troublesome things. They sell each other out and kill each other. Master only wants to purify human souls.” Eily gasped. “Purify? You mean kill everyone?” “Not everyone. Only those who displease the master will go.” Shi
