2020-09-23 10:00:12CHLOE knew that there was something wrong about the people around them as they stepped inside the Mineria Town. There were children and some of them were running around, playing. But their eyes seemed dull.
There were adults walking around but their eyes were lifeless. Nevertheless, their movements were just normal. As if they were living their normal night.
Chloe looked further into them with her eyes. They looked like a normal Demetri but they had Auræ around them. There were black crescent tattoo on their cheeks, but the style differed from the ones the Black Crescent members had.
They were strolling for a little while but they haven't seen a single Black Crescent member or anything weird other than the lifeless people surrounding them.
Neptos put a hand on her shoulder. She looked up at him and saw him glancing at her with apprehending look. "Relax."
Chloe nodded and flicked her hair that was tied in a ponytail. They paused and quickly went to the n

THE moment that the containers exploded around them, the three men summoned their weapons in their hands. One of them wielded a chained mace, the second a jagged sword and the last held a spear.Chloe put her left hand on the sheath of her sword and after taunting the three men, they started to attack her. The brunette dodged them with her hand still holding the sheath of her sword.She frowned when she felt her hand already shaking. This would be her first real battle. It just occured to her that she was not expecting to feel anxious.The young Kryst was occupied with her thoughts when one of the men, the one holding the chained mace, caught her ankle with the chain. She tripped and fell to the ground. Chloe rolled away in time for the mace to hit the ground where she was initially laying."Hah! Good work, Dean."Dean, the wielder of the chained mace, chuckled darkly. "That wasn't enough, Farlan. Boost it."Chloe stood to her feet. She didn't fee

PRINCE Ciaran knew there's something off with the woman before them. She was not the real thing, he knew that. But he couldn't recognize what that was."You're Mai Lou, the spider elf," Neptos declared.A snort was heard from Neptos' side and all eyes turned to the young brunette who was trying to hold back her laughter. "A spider elf?"Mai Lou frowned at her. "What's wrong about that?" she asked, curiosity laced in her voice.Chloe couldn't help herself but laugh. Theo and Neptos stared at her in disbelief while Ciaran was amused by her reaction. No one would dare laugh in front of their enemy, when a fight could ensue anytime.Mai flipped her long raven hair and smirked at Chloe. "I am the only one left in my kind."They felt the wind pick up. Chloe and the others, even Mai and her shadows, had to brace themselves from getting thrown put somewhere. When the wind slowed down, they opened their eyes. Chloe's young face split into a large grin.

SHE slowly blinked her eyes open only for it to close from the blinding light coming from the open window. She heard a slight movement and the darkening of the surroundings.Chloe reopened her eyes and focused on the ceiling. She was laying down on something soft, and a smooth fabric was covering her from her torso below. Someone made their way to her side and she turned her head to look at them.It was her friend, Jucel, who leaned to look at her and smiled down at her. "You're awake.""Where am I?" Chloe croaked. Her throat was drier than she imagined.Her best friend pushed herself from the bed and went to the sidetable where there was a glass of water ready. She helped Chloe up and handed the glass of water to her."We're still in Mineria Town. The villagers were saved from the Black Crescents after a year of under their control."Chloe finished the glass of water and then handed it back to Jucel. "What happened to me?""You fainted afte

LUCIAN was already standing outside of the house when Chloe, Neptos and Jucel arrived in the house they shared in Graire Province. As soon as he saw the three, he immediately went to rant about Chloe's safety.Barbie and the others went out of the house and the short woman jumped beside Lucian, catching the bottom of his ear."Ow! What are you-- ow, that hurts!" Lucian shouted. Because Barbie was a lot smaller than Lucian, the latter had to bend his body to the side or else his ear will be tear off his head.Barbie proceeded to pull him inside the house. "Come here, you idiot. You're still not dressed up!""Dressed for what?" Chloe asked while watching Barbie dragging Lucian away from them. Indeed, Barbie Lewelyn was dressed in her usual rugged clothes while the remaining boys were dressed up in pants and shirt.Jared Dale was hanging at the back, his hands tucked inside his jeans' front pockets. He was not looking at them, just staring at the now

"HOW did you know that Lucian's waiting for us?" Jucel had asked Neptos when he reached the second floor. She was waiting for him in front of his room which Kieran lent. She saw Barbie and Lucian arguing with each other but she knew that it was a light-hearted argument of Lucian being a troublesome.Neptos had just shrugged. "My mind is sensitive to Telekinesis, probably because I had encountered and communicated with one before. His mind was haywired all morning and so I figured out he was worried."Jucel picked up a book from the shelf in front of her. She was wondering how the legendary Water Kryst became sensitive to Telekinesis. If he communicated with one Telekinetic Kryst before then he would have been wired only to that Kryst, not Lucian."You're not going to read that book, aren't you?" a gentle voice asked her.Jucel whirled around and her face bumped into someone's chest. She quickly fixed her glasses before looking up. Her face heated up quickly when she realized who it was

IT was not long after Lucian left her when Jucel was disturbed from her reading spree by another presence. The shadow blocked the light coming from the large arched windows and so she couldn't continue reading.Frowning, Jucel looked up only to drop her jaw ever so slightly. The shadow was awfully familiar. Tall with messed up hair and those moonlight silver eyes that seemed to shine in the dark. "Sean Olaire."The shadow moved away and Jucel looked down as her eyes adjusted to the light. Sean Olaire sat in front of her. His eyes crinkled and the corners of his mouth were upturned into a charming smile that suited his boyish face. He had one silver trident earring glinting on his left ear."I never saw you again. I thought I encountered a Fēyin that night," he said. Fēyin, as what Jucel read from the books of Demetrius, was the spirit of the dead Kryst. Usually they were associated with bad omen.Jucel neither smiled nor frown at his presence. She just looked at him blankly. "That woul

JUCEL Greyn was perplexed. She couldn't wait to see Lucian but she had to face Sean Olaire first.As Chloe insisted, she went with Jucel back at the Krystalline Academy that night. Chloe told her that she would be farther away, guarding her against Sean Olaire's possible hidden agenda."If I see even a slight movement that could harm you, I'll have to pull you out," Chloe reminded her friend.Jucel nodded and started to walk past the academy's gate. Chloe made her way to the other entrance, which was at the Eastern gate.Sean and his friends were already at the academy grounds patiently waiting for Jucel. There were two female Krysts and three male Krysts along with Sean. Jucel noticed that they all had a piercing.It was one of women who saw Chloe first. She nudged at Sean and nodded her head towards Jucel. He turned to her and smiled."You came," he greeted.Jucel nodded at him. "I am curious about this concern of yours. But I will have to

"WHAT a pair up! The Jade and Dog Fur are both stronger but Jade was smaller! Who will be going down today?" a nasal tone of a male voice announced."Are you sure they're here, Red?" Lucian asked in his worried tone as they moved from every vacant aisle they could squeeze into. Zabdiel, Barbie, Blaise, Kieran, Jared, Lucian and Clive were cramming their way into the crowd."I am sure of it," Jared spat, almost angrily.Chloe, Jucel and Neptos had been missing for two months and they had been looking for the trio since then. The last time they saw each other was when Chloe gave Lucian the book of Master Hunn's writing and when Jucel asked him if she could borrow the book for a while. After two days, they disappeared.Lucian was becoming worrier every day. He would often skip his classes so he could look for Chloe and Jucel. But yesterday, Jared came home with his face alarmed. According to the young man, who didn't even bothered to use his teleportation, he sp

The ceremony was short and rushed as everyone were exhausted and distraught. They paid tribute to every single fallen Kryst and then buried the Knights of Shaula in their own monuments. Neptos was buried in the cemetery for the Rein Tribe while Vivien Li in her own tribe. Kieran Lornn was brought to the Lornn Tribe in a closed casket, never to be opened.Those who led in the war were given rewards. Barbie Lewelyn, Lucian Liu, Zabdiel Lewelyn, Clive Travis, and Jared Dale were hailed as the new Knights of Bellatrix."I know it's late. But this is how I wanted to honor her," Queen Elisa told them in a hushed voice.Barbie regained her strength two months after and it was enough for Zephrain to make some sentiments with the Krystalline Palace.Zephrain was standing right in the middle of the vast graveyard, the horizon looming ahead and the Mountain Ranges surrounded him, as if looking over on what he had been gazing at for many times in a day... everyday.He heard a rus

When the Knights positioned outside the barrier, Chloe removed her armor from her body. She wore a plain red shirt with gray pants. The young Blood Star sat on the ground, her legs crossed under her.Lucian positioned behind her, standing with his right palm pressed behind her head. "Are you sure about this, Chlo'?" he asked."I must be asking you that, Lulu-chi." Chloe smiled. "I never had the chance to thank Demetrius for this."Lucian gritted his teeth to control his tears. He didn't say anything at all, afraid that his voice might give away his sorrow.Jucel brought the Bellatrix sword to Chloe. The latter shook her head. "You must do it."The freckled woman let out a deep breath. "You're cruel."Chloe just smiled. She stared at the back of a familiar duo. "Mē, Zē." She swallowed. "Thank you."Outside the barrier, Faline Liu and Iwaoka were trying their best not to cry. They neither answered her nor looked back. The three inside wouldn't hear them, anyway.

Meanwhile, Barbie ducked under Kirsten's staff and swiped her leg under the latter. Kirsten lost her balance but regained herself, and flipped away before she could reach the hard ground.Barbie stood and twirled her sword while her dagger was positioned in front of her. The electricity from her body was back, recharging her energy through the wrath that she felt.Kirsten charged again and swung her sword before giving Barbie a side kick. The latter crossed her wrists to block another kick but grunted when Kirsten's high heel dug on her flesh. She gripped Kirsten's ankle, electricity ran through the Great Witch who screamed. Barbie hurled her away, the heel ripping her skin in the process.Blood oozed from Barbie's wrists and ran down her fingers then dripped to the ground. She could feel her nerves shaking on her right wrist where a hole from Kirsten's heel dug into. An open wound near her large vein."Tch," Barbie said as she wrapped her left hand around her righ

Snow endlessly falls down from the cloud-covered sky. But despite that, the whole land of Markus was not freezing in cold. The Fire Land was warmer below at the same time colder in the surface. Although the surroundings were frozen in ice crystals and covered with snow, it was not enough to freeze a Demetri.Chloe Liu walked for a few meters to the center and stopped under the tree. Her golden eyes roam around and saw that she was surrounded by Black Shaols.The young Blood Star smirked. "You really brought them out for your gain, Liege."A large man with a black armor emerged from the crowd of enemies, a triumphant smirk etched on his face. He had a golden crown with the symbol of Illinor at the center. He's holding a large sword with broad blade. Chloe thinks he could cut a large tree with it.But, not her.She figured out that the Southern Region has a tunnel underneath it, used by the same enemy fifty years ago to infiltrate the land of Markus. It doesn't fa

The time had been ticking that moment. It runs around the clock day and night. Not even the prince I served, Særi ust Trūx Ciaran, can stop the time all at once. There will be choices to make. There will be memories of pain.The Great Witch, with Kirsten Zūng as its vessel, has ordered a massive hunt for our deaths. The Kingdom of Demetrius, my home, experienced its biggest war in history.Once again, many shall lose their lives for the peace we so wanted. Witches from Illinor began to make their way to the Eastern Region where they will be able to invade the city of Markus.The whole population of the bloodlust witches and traitors of Demetrius bounded off around the Ahn Mountain Pass and made their way to the city of Markus, the city which the great General Dana Rein conquered. The Land rich of Fire Element. There's no mercy, no holding back.I haven't been into this kind of war. None of us have. Bellatrix of Orion, will you save us from sure death?Only I, a Mnemos

Jared landed on the ground face-first. He pushed himself up and sighed softly as he opened his now blazing dark green eyes. He pushed out of the way in time to avoid the axe of the enemy. Jared picked up the fallen soldier's sword and swung it blindly in front of him, cutting deeply on the skull of the enemy.He grimaced as he stood limply, his injury now bothering him than before."Red!" Clive's voice rang through the noise of the battle. He turned and raised his hand to catch his sword. Jared didn't waste time swinging his blade across the approaching enemy's chest.~O~O~O~"Damn it! Where the hell was Kirsten?" Tara asked as she kicked away an opponent and swung her spear to another Illinora.Vivien swung her two white silver swords across the Illinora's face and whirled around the enemy's side before bringing her blade down their injured necks. She put her blades together and ran the blades across each other. The blood was quickly wiped off the blades, clean

Clive and Celine stepped back as another explosion occured at the boundary.Huge dark brown ugly-looking beasts were roaming around; snarling and shaking their heads furiously as blood were oozing from their faces and body.Clive whirled at Celine who was standing calmly beside him. Celine began to bark orders in a calm voice. Fire began to float all around them, courtesy of the Fire Element Krysts."Archers!!" Celine shouted. Clive raised his hands and the fire enveloped him. It made him smile with joy. Being enveloped in fire made him think about the time he discovered his power as a boy.The archers notched their arrows and aimed at the borders. Clive brought his hands towards the arrows, the fire began to lick the tip of the arrow notched.Celine smirked at him and nodded. She looked at those beasts that managed to enter the borders. "Hold!!"Silence enveloped the whole area. Five kilomenters. Four. Three. The archers didn't move an inch.Celine pulled an ar

The Krysts began to follow Ciaran and Zephrain's instructions. The Travis Tribe and the other tribes from the Markus City vowed to help in the war against the Great Witch. They prepared traps everywhere. It took them a whole day to prepare.Lucian and his friends decided to get over the grief they had over Kieran. With Jucel and Celine's efforts, Zabdiel's consciousness came back.Upon hearing about Kieran's death, Zabdiel didn't know what to say. He started to blame himself, but there's no denying that no one wanted to lose Kieran Lornn."Where's his body?""Chloe said he's at the palace back in Vestia," Lucian murmured.Zabdiel could only nod his head and then he went back to his trance, mourning for his older friend. He clenched his jaws and his fists. Zabdiel vowed that he will seek revenge on Kieran's death.Three days came and no Kirsten Zūng appeared. Celine brought Lucian, Barbie, Zabdiel, and Clive to a storage room."What are we doing here?" Clive aske

Queen Elisa stood at the first steps outside the palace. She was covered with wool coat to prevent the freezing cold from seeping through her body. Her white hair cascaded on her shoulder and her crown sat atop her head.The soldiers are already positioned, all of them sitting on the Pegasi - another type of horses used for battle. These horses have the wings of eagles they can fly the soldiers towards Markus and pass the Dark Forest. Because of the vulnerability of the Pegasi under the sun, they had to wait under the weather was colder so they can use them for transportation.Chloe was sitting on her own Pegasi, a jet black horse with stronger, wider wings than the others. Her golden eyes looked up at the Queen and found her staring. Chloe just nodded at her which she answered a small smile and a nod. The Blood Star then took hold of the reins and bounded to the front lines.Jucel and Jared went out of the palace. Jared still looked emotionless as before. Ever since Jucel'
