I place the phone on my shoulder and tilted my head to clip it. "Which woman and what connection do you mean?" I put the pendant back into the box and started taking off my pants.
"The one with shoulder-length hair. She's a daughter of the woman," Lucas answered.
"Daughter?" I repeated and stopped what I am doing. It's Catherine that he is referring to.
"Yes, Ms. Brown." He confirmed.
"What else do you know about the daughter, Catherine?" I asked further.
"She runs away from home when she was sixteen. Her mother always beat her since she was a kid. There's no information about her father. What's more interesting here is, her mother, Rosalia, is a half-sister of Rosemary." Lucas narrated.
"Rosemary, the head servant of the Brown's mansion?" I clarified.

I went straight to the hospital after meeting with Lucas. I decided to visit Catherine and Isabel to see how they are doing. I was walking in the corridor of the hospital when I heard the news on the television in the nurse's station. It caught my attention so I stopped and watched first. "Good for you," I mumbled and smiled at the nurse on duty before continuing my pace. Ram Tucky and the other men I fought with yesterday got arrested. They couldn't explain what happened in the warehouse because of the spell cast by the mysterious prince. However, what was clear to the police was that they found illegal drugs in the place. The Tucky Corporation is now on its hot seat. I knocked before entering the hospital room where the two women are. There's no one inside except the two of them who are both lying on their beds. They are still unconscious and have not yet awakened since I brought them here yesterday. But the doctor, according to Lucas, said that they

The three Ehtrehtians walked back into the thick woods. They reached a small stream and cleanse themselves. The cold water helped them freshen up. They all sat beneath a shady tree. "I wish to go back to Ehtrehto Edis soon, I hope Lady Amara would agree to come with us." Peter started to speak. He was staring blankly at the leaves swaying with the wind. His hands are placed on the back of his head while leaning to the trunk of the tree. "I wish the same, Uncle," Connor replied with the same enthusiasm. "But, we have to be prepared for her decision. It will be hard on her side, especially that she grew up in this world," Conrad reminded them. "You are right," Peter agreed and sighed. "I don't know what Hunter did all of these days. He should have started telling her about her mission to our world, instead of just simply befriending her." He added with irritation. "Perhaps he has a valid reason," Conrad said with a sigh. "That's ri

The paper float again but this time it flew into the hands of Hunter. "Hunter!?" I didn't notice his presence earlier so I got surprised to saw him standing few meters away from me. "Time is getting near," He spoke strangely. His brown eyes are glowing, and his pupils are narrowed vertically. It's the first time that I see Hunter like this. I didn't know that he can transform this way. The moonlight on his face is making him look mysterious. "What time, Hunter?" I asked inquisitively. "Go back to Ehtrehto Edis. The Ehtrehtians need you," He pleaded. "Hunter, you knew I've gone through a lot there. My family was killed by the Aquans and they chased me! What am I? A fool that would go back to be slaughtered!?" I yelled furiously. "You still don't understand things, Lady Amara," His voice was weak and weary. He called me by that name again, twice just now. "What is there that I need to

Thankfully, my eyelids got heavy. As soon as my eyes were ready to close and fall back to sleep, the alarm clock rang again. It's only four in the morning. I forgot to reset it yesterday. I usually work during this time because it's the time when my mind works best.Without rising from my side sleeping position, I reached for the alarm clock on the bedside table and turned it off. I'm hoping to continue my sleep but before I could close my eyes, I caught a shadow on the wall. Someone is behind me! I teleported beside the owner of the shadow and clutched his neck, my claws are pushing deep into his skin."Isn't it too early for a visit?" I said in a hoarse morning voice."Sorry to disturb you," the man apologized in a low baritone voice."What do you want Prince of Terra Hella?" I said, not letting go of his neck."I-Um," he stammered. "Can you let go of my neck? Your claws hurt," he chuckled jokingly, but he was tensed.I removed my hands fr

The ninjas leaped forward and pointed their swords towards the three of us. Three ninjas were attacking each one of us. It wasn't easy to fight with them especially that our only weapons were our claws. I avoided every strike they're throwing at me. I was keenly observing their movements. I plastered a dangerous smile when I already mastered the rhythm of their moves. One ninja is attacking me from behind so I quickly fled towards his back and clawed him deeply. Stains of blood remained on my claws when I lifted my hand. Another ninja was coming with a full-force overhead attack. Our eyes met and I saw panic in him. I seized the opportunity and used my telekinesis to control his hand movement until he was pointing his sword diagonally downward on his stomach. The sword was buried there and blood gushed out from his body. He fell to the ground and blood came out of his mouth. His body convulsed before he finally died. One more is left and we stood face-to-face with one anothe

Since that daybreak that we fought with the ninjas, my nights have been filled with the woman who introduced herself as Farah. This dream made me anxious deep inside. I always see the horrible killings, even when I'm already woken. I know that there is a message she wants to tell me. So, to decipher the message and to free me from turmoil, I finally agreed to go back to Ehtrehto Edis.Hunter was thrilled and wishes to go with me, but couldn't do so. He was cursed so he couldn't set foot back in our world. Whoever did it to him, I don't know and he doesn't care telling me. The twin royal blood of Terra Hella who's prince's name is still anonymous, was happy with my decision. Same with Peter and his nephews Connor and Conrad.I still can't discern what my duty is, what my place is back in Ehtrehto Edis. It didn't occur to me before that I am someone important in my world, as these people say. No wonder the Aquans want me dead. I know things will be tough as s

"She has fallen asleep," the prince spoke while watching Akira lying deeply asleep on the sand. "That's expected. She's been away for a decade and her body is adjusting to the atmosphere here." Peter explained, his eyes also on the woman. "She must have been very tired," Prince said while staring at her with inexplicable emotion. His heart wants to caress the woman but his hand is being cautious. "We have to find somewhere to stay," Peter said and stood up. He shook the sands off from his pants. "We are heading back to Terra Hella. You can come with us if you wish to," the prince invited them. He also got up from sitting. "That so hospitable of you, but we must head to Ignis Hella," Peter politely rejected the offer. "If that is the case, then we will go ahead." The prince did not insist on his invitation. He understood Peter's resistance. He doesn't wan

I finished my food shortly and got out of the house as soon as I'm done fixing myself. A cool breeze greeted me outside. I didn't expect to see beautiful scenery in front of me. "Wow!" I was overwhelmed by the sight of the clear sea and wide seashore on the foot of the marvelous mountain where I am now standing. I looked around hoping to see Connor and Conrad but I couldn't find them. I didn't take my meal for long, but they're already gone. I turned my gaze back at the house where I came out. It's small with cogon grass thatching. I roamed my eyes and saw houses around. Conrad and Connor's small house is the center and on top of this village. I am awed by the beauty of the mountains and green surroundings. However, the dreadful silence of the place is odd. It's like a sleeping village and it's intriguing. "Are there any people here? Why is it so silent?" Out of curiosity, I tele

Akira gave Marcus a serious stare as if she m's warning him from interfering in her battle. Then, she turned her head in Thud's direction. "Are you ready to die?" General Thud smirked. "You are underestimating me, daughter of Farah," his eyes darkened upon mentioning her name. Akira became agitated after hearing him mention her late mother's name. Her jaw and lips tensed and her fists were clenched. She recalled how they were tortured to death. The screaming of the immortals, the fire that burns them, and the sight of the girl who was beheaded in front of her during her dream. It was real, she knew it was real. Her teeth gritted and she roared, "You!" She faced and pointed the sword at Thud. "You're a serpent! Your life means death to everyone in Ehtrehto Edis. You must die!" Thud knew this would come. So, he positioned himself and readied for her attack. "Bitchy little immortal," he sneered. Deep inside he is frightened of how Akira moves right now. He watched her running fastly

Lang-Mao smiled bitterly as she watched Akira transforming into the highest level of immortality. It's been a long while since she last saw an immortal reaching this level. The very first guardian of lights was the one she witnessed last. The poor immortal didn't survive after her body surrendered from so much power running in her veins. But then, she saved the Ehtrehto Edis from Yquino, the king of evilness. Lang-Mao knew this day would come. However, this is not yet the end. Ehtrehto Edis still has a long way to go through. Akira's POV I ran towards my father's side and threw a sword at General Thud who was able to dodge my assault. "Father," I called him in a shaking voice. He raised his hand and caressed my face. "Y-You are so lovely, my Amara," he tried to tell me while gasping for breath. Blood gushes out of his mouth as he tries to speak. "I, I always loved you, my daughter." "I know," I told him. My spirit is shattering inside me. My world fell apart as I watch him slow

General Thud saw that one of the guardians of light is exiting. He grinned, it would be easy for them to win the fight now."Go and follow the Aero Edis Princess," he told one Aquan knight. "Report to me everything that she will do," he added."Yes, your majesty."Prince Lance who was near overheard them. He glanced in the direction they were looking at. 'Shateira,' he murmured her name. He heard Prince Matias call her Princess of Aero Edis earlier. Now, this general of Aqua Edis called her Aero Edis Princess again. He doesn't know that he has a cousin. He doesn't know that there is a princess in their bloodline. This is making him curious.'Where is she going?' He asked himself. A plan entered his mind. He looked around. He saw that Thud resumed fighting. When he was sure that no one was looking at him, he sneaked and followed Shateira.They are now inside the dense forest. The Aquan knight sent by Thud saw him following and trie

Akira's POV I can sense great energy coming from a certain direction. By the scent, I could tell who they are. Peter, Russ, and Lang-Mao. Why were they together? Where have they been? It doesn't matter. What's important now is to save this idiot Connor. I quickly leaped forward and grabbed his body before fleeing into the air. Thankfully, I was able to do so before Coel's forceful smash hit us. I landed behind Princess Shateira who was silently observing the aura of the expected newcomers. 'You can sense them too, can't you?' I asked her through the mind link. She just nodded without glancing at me. I know she can also tell the turmoil that is about to happen. The pungent odor of the bloody ground adds to the thrill I am feeling. But, I can also feel horror deep inside. Whose life shall be snatched later? I looked at Connor who is still in my arms. He is unconscious. I raised my hand to touch his wounded face but was stopped by Conrad's voice. "Connor," he ca

The brothers Conrad and Connor saw it all. "What can we do to stop him?" Connor asked his brother. "I don't know," Conrad replied. "Maybe we should fight him," he said. The two nodded at each other and run towards their father or the monster, rather. Conrad face his father and Connor stood behind. "I don't know who you are inside my father's body. But to tell you honestly, I will not hesitate to tear that skin," Conrad spoke. "Conrad," Hunter called him besides coughing. "Be careful. Your father is powerful and is now fatal," he said. "He's not our father," Connor said with clenched teeth. "Fools," King Hydrae smirked. "Coel didn't die. Thud took his body and offered his soul to Yquino. That monster is your father," he grinned. Conrad and Connor were dumbfounded by the King's confession. They looked at each other with confusion. Conrad spoke, "That's impossible! We buried his body after finding him lifel

Akira took the war seriously. She did everything she could to defend her father's kingdom. Of course, to defend the whole land of Ehtrehto Edis. Her comrades did the same.They were all halted by the swift and effortless action of Coel in killing the Ignis Hella knights. He can kill them by just smashing them with his bare hand. He is so ruthless and cold-blooded."How can we stop your father?" Prince Matias asked Conrad and Connor."He's no longer our father. That's maybe his body, but not his soul!" Connor replied amidst striking his sword."My brother is right," Conrad agreed. "There's only one way to stop him. That's killing him. But taking into consideration his current ability, I think that is not easy," he added."He's going to the king!" Shateira exclaimed while pointing in a certain direction.They all looked in the direction she's pointing. They saw Coel making his way towards King Suxx. They felt alarmed.&n
The Last Immortal Ā Ā Ā Chapter 82
With her strong sense of sight, Akira can see the source of the strong force even if it's still afar. A wave of lights and sounds directed her into it. It's a tall and fearsome man. His prominent abdominal muscles are visible on his shirtless upper torso. His lower clothes are ragged. He is barefooted...and his face resembles someone she knows. Does he look like Conrad or Connor?Her thoughts were stopped by a strong force caused by the stranger's movements as he draws nearer them. The ground trembled and those knights who were frozen by Shateira fell into the ground."Someone is coming!" Princess Melissa exclaimed. She can also see the man. "He looks like a monster."That was true. The man's veins are bulging all over his body. His expressionless eyes indicate forthcoming wrath."Let's see what you can do with him," King Hydrae grinned. "The strongest weapon Aqua Edis has made for decades," he said while a flash of evilness glowed in his eyes

"Ah!"Everyone turned their heads to the man who shouted in pain. It was King Suxx. He was kneeling on the ground with one hand supporting his other wounded hand. The tip of King Hydrae's sword is pointing at his throat."Father!" Akira shouted. She ran towards him but was stopped by General Thud's sharp and shining sword."Akira!" Connor and Conrad shouted in chorus."It's now your end, my dear friend, King Suxx," King Hydrae said while grinning. He playfully glided the sword on King Suxx's neck. "But, since you were my friend back in the old times. I can give you another chance if you agree with me," he grinned."What kind of agreement would a person like you offer me? Don't ever try to bribe me for your greedy intention, Hydrae," King Suxx gritted his teeth.Hydrae laughed. "Look at you. Still trying to protect your people even at the rim of death. I'll give you a clap for your heroism," he teased and slowly presse

King Suxx It's been a long time since I last saw this cruel king in front of me. King Hydrae used to be my friend when we were younger. I don't know what happened to him. He turned beastly after he was crowned the king of Aqua Edis. I can still remember when he promised he wouldn't follow the cruelty of his father. But he turned out to be crueler. His eyes reflect someone else. He's not the same Hydrae I used to play with when we were kids.***Hunter I have long been waiting for this day to come. This is the day that I will take vengeance for the murder of my kind. I learned a lot of secrets since I went back here. Now, I understand why Hydrae and Khan Awae wanted me dead. Thanks to Ruth for not killing me. Now that the four guardians of lights are complete, my duty is fulfilled. Completing them was the mere reason for my existence. If I die today in this war, I can say that my life was not a waste.***Conrad I keep a close w
