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
My apologies for the very late update. 🥺
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
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
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
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
"Hmm," I muttered.I've felt a sharp pain in my temple upon waking up. I surely got hungover from last night's outing. I can't raise my arms to touch it, as if something is hindering them to move. I slowly opened my eyes only to see nothing but darkness. My hands are tied at the back of the chair where I am sitting."Oh my God!"I panicked when I realized what had happened last night. I heard the creaking sound of the door being opened."Where am I?"I didn't hear any answer from the person who just entered the room. I can hear his big strides going in my direction."Where am I?" I shouted aggressively. "Where are my companions?""You won't get an answer. You better shut your mouth up." Said the cold tone from the man whom I can sense standing a few meter
My house is far from the city and it needs a long drive before I arrive at the noisy market of the small town of New land. So, I normally go out for groceries twice a month. I'm into web development and am a freelancer. I work from home using my laptop and the internet. No need to wake up early and rush to the office. Above all, no need to mingle with other people. I see this as an advantage. I skillfully park my car in the left-wing of the roofed parking space of the market. This space is quite impressively wide for such a small town. I shut the engine off and get out of the car. I walk around the market seeing familiar friendly faces and nod at the old man who smiled at me while walking in opposite direction. I head towards a narrow path where rows of meat shops are located. "Good morning Ms. Brown!" A cheerful voice of a white, middle-aged woman greets me as I enter their small meat shop. She is fat and seems to bounc
It's early in the morning. The sun is rising brightly in the eastern mountain, spreading its light in the white puffy clouds.My hands tightly grip on the handle of the ax as I strike the wood I am chopping. Its breaking sound as the sharp edge of the ax lands on its surface mixes up with the chirping of the birds and crowing of the roosters. I stop, seeing that I have chopped enough firewood for a week. I throw the ax to the side and start to gather the chopped wood. Two meters away from me is the detached kitchen. It's built using bamboo and palm leaves. Beside it is a tall mango tree. That is where I am placing these chopped woods. This place is somewhat hilly and going down while carrying a bundle of woods will be a struggle. But not for me. My strong arms do not feel the weight of woods. That's an advantage of not being human. I am about to finish piling the woods when I hear a loud flapping sound. I tilt my head trying to receive the sound wave from the direction where
"Thank you for saving my life." She tells me while I am cleaning her wounds in her arms."That's fine. What is your story?" I ask referring to the incident that just happened. It reminds me of the thirteen-year-old me trying to escape from General Thud of the Aqua Edis."I stole their money."Her honest and straightforward answer fascinates me."That must be a large amount." I glare at her before I continue cleaning her wounds. "These need to be stitched. About six to eight stitches." I point to the two-deep wounds."I needed money for my son. He is in the hospital right now."She didn't seem to care about her wounds, stitches, and anything. Her tears flow down on her pretty face. I see deep sorrow and pain in her eyes. She continues to tell her story."I took million from Zubah's syndicate and now they are hunting me. I managed to hide my son in the hospital with the help of my friend. And maybe, he is n

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. 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
