I just ignored him and acted as if it was nothing. This man is indeed thick-skinned. 

We passed by smooth as well as rough terrains, steep hills, and even crossed shallow waters. It took us an hour and a half before reaching a wide-open area. We are now standing meters away from the tall, thick, and strong walls of the Ignis Hella castle. From a distance, the castle stood so majestic and perfect on top of a hill from its dark blue-grey stone walls, high towers with small slit-like windows, and battlements, to its other features.

"Let's move forward," the commander knight moved ahead, and the men followed. 

"Is this your first time seeing the castle?" Connor whispered to my ear. 

His warm breath tickled me and I got uncomfortable but did not complain. 

"Yes," I simply answered.

"Hmmm, the king must be very excited to see you," he said carelessly.

His statement made me curious. 

"But why?" I inquired tilt

    I examined the internal walls around me as I follow the knight. They are made of different sizes and a combination of whitish and yellowish stone walls. I looked up and saw an arched ceiling which is the same as the stone in the walls. There are also lamp lights hanging on it. The lamps are fashionably decorated with a metallic bronze frame and covered with a transparent glass shade. "We are here, young lady." The knight's voice awakened me from wandering my thoughts. We are now in front of a high and huge twofold door. He pushed the door open. "Alright, thank you," I told him before getting in. My jaw dropped when a luxurious dining room met my eyes. The walls of the dining room are bare stones, the same as the stone wall in the corridor. A grand round crystal chandelier was glistening up in the high ceiling, its luminous light is adding to the calming atmosphere of the place. Underneath is a long table filled with delicious-looking foods. Ther

    I glared at them manifesting my irritation. They all suppressed their laughter and bowed their heads shyly. I stood up and the brothers did the same. At that moment, an old-aged woman came in from the door where I entered. She's with another woman, younger than her. They bowed after getting near me."Your highness, I am Zoniah, the seneschal of the castle," she started. "This is Kaera, she will be your maid of honor," she added."I'm pleased to meet you, Princess of Ignis Hella."Kaera bowed at me. She is a young woman, probably younger than me. She has long red hair, big round emerald green eyes, and a pretty nose. She has a slender body. She's pretty and has a bubbly personality."You call me a princess?" I looked at her inquisitively."Aren't you Princess Amara?" She was smiling widely as if we were that close to each other."Uh oh, I am Amara, they say so," I got confused and just doesn't know what to say.Zoniah cleared her

    We're done with our breakfast and I and Keara are now in the courtyard garden. I heard footsteps and saw Conrad coming. "Are you ready?" He politely inquired. "Yes, I am. Where is your brother?" I wonder why he's not with him. They always stay with each other. "He's outside, in the stable." Conrad twitched his lips and showed a meaningful smile. "What is he doing in the stable?" I furrowed my brows. I don't think he would ask for a horse from the king as he promised. "Since you are ready to leave, then better see it for yourself," he grinned. I nodded in agreement. "That's a good idea," I stood up and walked past him and he and Kaera followed. We went straight to where Connor is. I saw him busy grooming a horse. It's not the same horse we used to ride on our journeys. He was so engrossed that he didn't notice us getting near. "Hey," I greeted to catch his attention. He turned around and s

    "Oops!" I exclaimed when my body hit a hard object when we fell into the damp soil of the human world."You alright?" Connor asked assisting me as we're both getting on our feet."I'm good," I said wiping off the dirt on my clothes."Oh, God!" Connor said in a low but panicked tone, he held my shoulders and looked at me seriously."What?" I asked looking confusingly at his long arms extending in my shoulders, then to his worried face."You are pale and your nose is still bleeding," he said while taking off his upper clothes. He wiped my nose using it without hesitation."H-Hey, what are you doing?" I tried to back away but he caught my arms abruptly."Let me finish wiping your blood," he said glaring at me with authority. "Here, it's done."He showed me his clothes and it almost shock me. It was nearly soaked with blood."That's plenty of blood," I said blankly. I'm starting to feel weak, my knees

    Greg left my home when he got sure I'm already fine. He said that was Connor's order. He even called him Master Connor. What is Connor's position, anyway? I told Greg to connect with me as soon as Hunter goes back and he assured me. It seems like the time runs slowly as I am waiting for Hunter. I am now done preparing my lunch. I cooked my favorite roasted beef and salad pasta. Here I am now, delightfully facing my hearty meal. "Hmm," I inhaled its delicious scent. My olfactory nerves are pleased with it. Well, I'm always pleased with my cooking. Laughs. I've just left for one day and a half but I'm already missing my human activities like this one. Eating alone. My phone vibrated. I picked it and saw Lucas' name on the screen. He is calling. I drank some water before answering him. "Hey, Lucas," I greeted him while I'm wiping my mouth. "Hello Ms. Brown, I assume that you already have read my text," he was verifying.&

    Aqua Edis Castle throne room...King Hydrae is so furious upon hearing the bad news. Only one out of the eight assassins he sent to kill Akira was able to come back alive."You couldn't kill a single woman!? What a shame having idiots in my castle!" He shouted furiously."But Your Highness, she was not alone. She was with Conrad and Connor. Among them are three more Ignis Hella knights," the assassin defended himself. He was lucky to escape from the two men and three Ignis Hella nights in the forest, and now he is pitifully kneeling before the cruel king."That Conrad and Connor again!?" King Hydrae slammed his clenched fist on the armrest. "Hah! These two nephews of Peter have been giving me headaches, they must die! Send our best knights to kill them!" He ordered his right hand, General Thud."Yes, Your Highness," he bent forward and bowed to show his respect to the kin

    "That's better than being an asshole like you!" Connor moved forward to attack General Thud who swiftly counter-attacked him. Shortly after, the knights circled Conrad and attacked him simultaneously. The surroundings were filled with the clinching sound of swords and cursing of both sides.Connor and General Thud's swords clashed blade to blade pushing and striking each other. No one wants to be defeated."I wouldn't let you live for long," General Thud spoke in gritting teeth."You can say all that's in your head, but I'll make sure you'll be in vain," Connor smirked.He then pulled his sword away and thrust into Thud's from left to right. The skillful general never failed to block his attacks.Assaults and defenses can be seen below the man standing on a branch of a tree, watching them silently.***It's already getting dark.

    "Thank you for bringing this to me, Lady Amara," Hunter tearfully thanked me after pulling the map from the metallic box. "Uhmm, I'm glad to see you happy," I said while scratching my head. Did I do anything heroic? "This is the beginning," Hunter's radiant mood shows how delighted he is right at this moment. "Once you get the dagger and kill the beast. You'll be able to get the water that can cure me, and I will be able to go back to our world." "Yeah, and you can tell me everything I need to know as you promised," I smiled and reminded him of our agreement. "That's right," he nodded with approval. "Here, bring this map and go back to Ehtrehto Edis." "Wait, don't you think it's reasonable if I have someone with me when I go and fight the beast?" I asked him. "Don't get me wrong, I am not scared," I raised my brows and smirked. "Of course, let Conr

    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

    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.
