Albert forbade Axton to go alone to France as much as possible. But a stubborn person, especially when the lives of his wife and baby are in danger, make Axton no longer think about the safety of his life. In his head was only Helena and their future baby.
“No time left, Albert! The lives of my wife and baby are in danger. Can you imagine what if you were in my position right now?”
Albert was silent and could not answer. Anyone would do the same if his family was kidnapped and their life was in danger.
“You replace me to take care of the kingdom until I come back here. I entrust everything to you, Albert,” Axton ordered before he ran out of the palace.
Outside, the horse he had used to ride all the way to the castle of course could no longer be used for long trips. Surely the horse would be exhausted. As he was about to run towards the stables beside the castle, a villager gave his bl
“Is that really you, Axton?” Helena asked trying to convince herself that it was really her husband.“Of course. I went straight home from Almagro because I had a bad feeling and it turned out that my guess was right. You are now kidnapped by the French army. I really don't want to lose you both, Helena.”“Axton,” said Helena touched.“Now then, I'll try to open this iron bar lock. You wait a moment, "said Axton who then took a small iron wire that he had prepared earlier. He tried to fiddle with the lock that locked Helena's cell. After several attempts, he was finally able to open the lock. Axton and his wife hugged each other after they were no longer separated by the iron bars."Good thing you're okay, Helena. I'm really worried about you and our baby," Axton explained happily and relieved."I'm also happy to see you again before I di
The man who had been kicked earlier rushed to take the horse and ordered his men to immediately find the escaped prisoner. It was likely that the two fugitives had fled into the forest. Because the forest is a very suitable place to hide from the pursuit of soldiers.“Before the sun rises, find the witch. Or else you will die by my hands!” cried the man who was the leader of the ranks of the soldiers.He mobilized so many men that there were only a handful of soldiers standing guard around the dungeon. Starting from the army of archers, cavalry to troops carrying bloodhounds all sent down to look for the witch. They combed the path that might be crossed.It wasn't in vain. One of the soldiers carrying a bloodhound reported to the army chief if the two fugitives passed through the area.“Master Bosch, it looks like they're going this way and heading south!” reported one o
In the midst of the happiness of the small family, Helena could hear the sound of a dog barking a few hundred meters from the forest. A quiet forest atmosphere can make your ears more sensitive. That happy face, suddenly became restless, until #he had to make a big decision. She didn't want her husband and baby to be in danger, therefore, she asked him to leave that place immediately.Helena took the army uniform that she had worn earlier to wrap her tiny baby body which she had not had time to clean, in a hurry.“What's the matter, Helena? Why do you look panicked?”“Listen to me, Axton. Go and take our baby with you. Save him from the pursuit of the French soldiers. Educate him so that he becomes a good person like you. Do you understand?”"No, Helena. If I have to survive, it has to be with you too. I wouldn't be able to live without one of you,” Axton begged as
“You are heartless creatures! The most disgusting creature that has ever existed on earth!” cursed Selena in the midst of the other prisoners. All eyes were on the crowd of Selena and the others.“You dared us, huh?” asked Roxton with a savage face.“Why am I afraid of demons like you? Even demons don't kill each other. But you savagely kill innocent people, just because they're witches? You guys are even more despicable than demons!” cursed Silvanna angrily, spitting loudly.“You guys, bring those two people here!” he ordered his soldiers to bring Selena and Silvanna before him.Two soldiers came forward to carry out the command of the troop leader. They dragged the two witches in question. The two of them violently dragged and pushed Selena and Silvanna forward.“Tie these two to the pole, then shoot them
Meanwhile, some of the bodies were thrown into the forest. Thrown just like that, without a sense of humanity. After everything was done, they were left just like that. The smell of blood will lure wild animals and vultures around the forest for a radius of several miles given the sheer number of corpses.And sure enough, in a matter of minutes some wild animals started arriving because of the smell of blood. Lions, tigers and other flesh-eating beasts began to flock to the pile of corpses. The vultures were already flying over the pile of corpses. They circled above waiting for the right moment to join them in enjoying their meal. They would patiently wait for the rest of the animals to leave or else they would eat the carcass at the top of the pile.Meanwhile, Axton and his red baby are almost at the border. The day was getting hotter and baby Alessandro id getting thirsty. He didn't know what to do. But then he heard a gurgling soun
Meanwhile in France, not long after the soldiers burned the corpses of the witches and then left them alone, someone came sniffing the smell from a distance. Behind the tree, he was looking for someone."That woman doesn't seem to be here," murmured the man with a handsome face.“Are you sure, Mr Zephyr?” asked someone standing behind the handsome man.Not answering, Zephyr just glanced sharply at his subordinate, Alric. “You and your great-grandfather are the same!” he babbled and then with a very fast movement, he darted out of the place in the blink of an eye.Zephyr is a siren who some time ago had come to Selena's magic hut and wanted Marion's blood to break the magic shackles that bound him for more than a hundred years. He seemed to be looking for someone through the scent attached to the bodies.And he came to the edge of the forest where man
A few days later, Axton was recovering and he was starting to wake up. However, he is not like the usual king. After awakening, he had become even more quiet compared to before. Maybe because his desire to follow Helena was thwarted by the son of his own confidant. Axton just felt that he had failed to become a king who could protect his people and soldiers for some reason. Even his own wife was willing to sacrifice herself for him. He felt he failed to become a king, who could not do anything.But in the midst of his despair, he still has a glimmer of happiness. The baby, Alessandro. It was this baby who helped him to be strong in living this difficult life. Every time he saw his baby, he had the strength to continue to endure. Unknowingly, the red baby is now seven years old.Axton experiences incident after incident because of his only son who has the blood of a great witch in him. That's why, Axton guard very closely and tend to hide Ale
“Your Majesty, there is something you seem to need to know. It's about Prince Alessandro!” Albert reported as he placed the roll of paper on his king's desk.“Say it, Albert,” Axton replied nonchalantly. As if he knew sooner or later, the people outside the palace would definitely want to know about the whereabouts of the successor figure of Castile La Mancha. Moreover, it was already the seventh year since Alessandro was born, but he had never been introduced to the outside world once. Of course the people are curious about what kind of prince they have. The only prince, descendant of the beautiful and kind Queen Helena.“People outside the castle started talking about Prince Alessandro. They inquired about his whereabouts who had never left the palace and they also wanted to know how the last descendant of Queen Helena, whom they admired so much, was like,” said Albert, who often hear
