"ONE part of the Black Shaol?" Chloe asked. She was standing at the doorway of the dining room, her arms crossed against her chest, with Neptos sitting at the table, gulping down his mug of beer. Jucel was across him, fiddling with her cup of tea.
After Lucian and the others left for school, the trio gathered for a meeting. Chloe and Jucel immediately told Neptos of the Black Shaol's release from its prison in the Dark Forest. As soon as they finished, the legendary Water Kryst answered them in one sentence: "It's a part of the Black Shaol."
Neptos nodded his head. "It will not start harming people unless it find its other half."
Chloe stood straight. "Then let's hunt it!" Determination etched in her face.
There was boredom in her mentor's eyes as he leaned against the back of his chair. "You wouldn't find it."
She narrowed her eyes towards Neptos. "That's because you're just too lazy, old man."
Neptos sighed and tu

NEPTOS Rein had them live in Daki's disguised souvenir shop. His house behind the souvenir shop was invisible to the unwanted guests. As soon as the trio reached the store, a cloak of invisibility seemed to lift up and revealed a two-storey house."Wow," Chloe said in utter amazement. "Lord Daki's good at hiding." Jucel nodded in agreement.Neptos smiled at her compliment. "He is the best at camouflage. Even the Knights couldn't find him once he's gone."They went inside the souvenir store where Daki was already at the counter, waiting for them."Are you sure you're doing this?" Daki asked as he led them through the back door.Chloe knew she was the one he was talking to but she didn't bother to answer him. I'm not sure, she wanted to say. I didn't agree to this.Jucel and Chloe shared one room upstairs while Neptos had his own downstairs. As soon as they closed the door behind them, Jucel spoke up."Are you okay, Chloe?"The said woma

FIRST day of their entry in the Galenus Arena. Chloe was instructed by Neptos to hide her identity as much as possible and gave her a hooded cloak made from the skin of a young Cimeræ."It will be impenetrable. Daki made it so you can hide your face while fighting," he said."What about Jus?" she asked and the silver-haired woman paused from reading a book across her. Jucel blinked at her and Neptos."Many didn't know who the Saranian was," Neptos answered with a shrug. "If the Hwā made a move to expose her, it will be your least thing to worry about."Chloe sighed. She now understood why. Jucel had the ability to make those weaker thab her forget about her existence, just like how she did in Helengrein. Even if they're stronger than Jucel, it would still be difficult to locate her due to the Saranian's ability to conceal her presence."You're too overpowered, and you shouldn't exist here, you know that?" Chloe grumbled with a pout.Jucel tilted h

PRINCE Ciaran had been in the town of Helengrein, Deirdre. But he never had the luxury of staying around without any business there. Now, he decided to visit the town with his subordinates for a reason.He looked up at the sky that was bluer than before as he stood at the garden at the side of the Krystalline Palace. Due to his position as the Særi ust Trūx, he didn't had time to talk to Chloe Liu, which turned out to be a Rein.He wanted to see her so much. But he couldn't bring himself to face her. He felt so much guilt, knowing that it was his mother's doing why her tribe was gone and forgotten.His gaze went down from the sky and stopped at the woman standing not far from him. Her hair was elegantly kept in a braided bun which made her dark eyes shine under the light of the sun even more. Her poise was that of surety and regal. There's nothing anyone could say about this woman. He could see Zillah in her.But he knew that behind this regal poise and gentl

THE room in Daki's house was a mess. Chloe had kicked the chair that was just at the side and tumbled across the room and into the table where the papers were stacked."Chloe, calm down. You're in Lord Daki's house," Jucel scolded."It's fine. As long as you clean your mess," Daki answered. He and Neptos stood on the either side of the doorway, casually leaning against the wall. "But even so, you have to calm down."Chloe took a deep shaky breath and exhaled slowly to calm herself. After her fight with Reuna, Chloe decided to call it a day. She went back to Daki's home on her own, with Jucel being forced to dump on her next fight and follow her best friend."They're too lax and overly confident because of the false peace of that damned Hwā," Chloe growled as she glared at the window in front of her. "They're supposed to be the soldiers. They're supposed to be strong."Daki had raised his eyebrows when he heard Chloe curse the Hwā. Then his face softened

THE night outside was chilly and cold in Deirdre. It was like an ice biting against one's skin. In the day, it remained warm and sunny. The air was fresh and as one could inhale without the smell of waxes and business apparels. Deirdre had that smell of trees, sea, and earth. Compared to Vestia which had an unpredictable weather, Deirdre felt refreshing.Ciaran and his men were at the banquet for dinner with Hunter Lornn and Eric Travis. The room was closed down, with only the six of them sitting on a cushion and their food in front of them."Why don't you stay in for the night, Your... I mean, Young Master?" Eric asked, catching himself from referring Ciaran to his entitlement. Hunter and Eric knew that Ciaran was taking advantage of his hidden status and so, they went along with it.The prince smiled gratefully. Although they were alone and locked down, they still prefer to call him in a noble's title. "The journey to Vestia is indeed far enough. I shall take you

IN the end, the Clover couldn't get hold of Chloe Rein. Each time Chloe decided to call it a day at the Fray Battle, she and her companions would be gone before anyone would realize. It left both Tara and Vivien fuming.The incident a month ago, wherein Chloe and Jucel Greyn faced off and nearly destroyed the arena, attracted many stronger opponents. They had became famous as the Vampire-Werewolf tandem. No one from the Clover knew why these people chose the Vampire and Werewolf nicknames and what it meant but they figured out that it was because the so-called Bella was a bloodthirsty monster once she was in the arena. The woman in teal dress named Jade was called Vampire because well, she was a pale freak who loved to lick the blood off of her opponents off her skin with no expression at all.Now, the members of the Clover made sure to catch Chloe Rein. Not when Lucian Liu, Chloe's foster brother, was present.~O~O~O~SHE felt their presence before she actua

NEPTOS Rein was strolling around the Galenus Market, looking for a booze, when he was blocked in his path. He halted and stared down at the small woman while she looked at him with a glare and a deep frown on her small face. She looked like a lion cub in front of a lion king.Somehow, it made him want to crush her. Almost like when he first encountered a certain cranky Lightning Kryst."Where are Chloe and Jucel?" she asked in a stubborn manner. Barbie Lewelyn stood in a proud manner, like all generations of Lightning Krysts shared. Compared to the others, most especially Levi Lewelyn, Barbie was the smallest."They're in a mission," he clipped before he moved to the side and continued on walking."You're lying! We saw them yesterday!" Barbie shouted at him. There were Demetri looking at their way when she shouted and it irked the old Water Kryst.He turned to her and narrowed his eyes at her. "They went in a mission and if you saw her yesterday then pr

THE five people consisted of three men and two women. Their leader, one who was always ahead and at the center, was an elderly man with small, dark eyes and a beard. When he was nearer to Chloe and the others, he said, “Young lady, you should step away from there.”Vivien's shoulders tensed. She knew the voice very well. She had heard the scathing remarks for years and she could never forget it.“Don’t let her escape. She has no place in this world. That monster is a danger to us all.”The village elder. The Li clan's chief. Vivien never thought the old man would still be alive after ten long years. The hair was whiter, and the figure stooped lower with age, but there was no mistaking that voice.A voice in her head screamed again, "Run!"Oh, how she wished she could. But she was pinned on the ground, her feet was heavier and her body was not cooperating with her at all.“What happened to this person?” Marjien asked, gesturing to the bones, “Who w

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'
