They heard Fewa’s question. Queenie and Leya turned their heads together. Fewa was so worried when he heard the name of the North Sea Kingdom.“You know that place?” asked Queenie.“I come from there. But who are you, and why do you want to go there?”“I am Queenie, the daughter of the King of the Bright River Kingdom, King Darian.”Fewa’s eyes widened, then blinked quickly, looking towards Queenie. A few moments later, Fewa shocked his head.“You’re the daughter of King Darian? Ahh… finally came.”Queenie and Leya looked at each other. Although Leya needed help to understand Fewa’s words. But she saw Queenie’s expression. Fewa must have to say something important. This Little Dragon in front of them knew many things about the North Sea Kingdom.But Fewa again felt pain in his almost severed wings. Fewa, he grimaced and cried.“Ouch...!”“Fewa!” Queenie rushed over to the Little Dragon. She rubbed his back lovingly.Leya flew low around Fewa. The Little Dragon sat on the ground in ver
“Fewa!” a beautiful woman with long blonde hair ran up to Fewa and hugged him.The woman looked the same age as Fewa. Then a man also approached him. Hugged the woman and Fewa simultaneously.“I’m fine. Queenie and Leya have saved me,“ Fewa said.Everyone was aware of Queenie and Leya’s existence among them.The woman who was with Fewa and the man next to him released a hug from Fewa. The two stared at Queenie and Leya.“Who are they, Fewa? Why did you bring a human into our nest? Why can this girl breathe in the deep ocean like us?” asked the man with Fewa.“She is the heir of the Darian King. Princess Queenie.”Hearing the name of King Darian called, everyone who was around them in unison knelt. Everything happening around her confused Queenie. However, Queenie’s face remained calm. It seemed that she had opened the first thing she needed.“Please accept our best regards, daughter of the Darian King.”“Wake up! I don’t need any respect from you. Right now, all I need is your help,”
Queenie, Fewa, Argo, and Finiah walked into the palace hall. Drawn swords were ready in their hands. The four men entered with courage. Argo, Finiah, and Fewa in their Knightly armor looked impressive. Meanwhile, Queenie was like a mighty Princess. Leya flew around them.The palace guards were shocked when the four people entered the Hall of the North Sea Royal Palace. The chaotic atmosphere in the hall felt so hard. Some palace officials discussing with King Jumuck stood up and prepared their swords.King Jumuck looked calmer seeing the arrival of the familiar Argo.“What are you doing here? I didn’t ask you to come to the palace today.”“From today, I don’t need the invitation to be present in the North Sea Kingdom!” answered Argo valiantly.King Jumuck’s eyes narrowed. During this time, Argo was the leader of the Dragon Knights. But there was just little that Argo could do to protect his herd. The power of Argo was never useable in front of King Jumuck. He had a dragon-controlling
Fewa took Queenie and flew slowly. The battle in the North Sea Kingdom tired them. Queenie’s wedding day was getting closer. They couldn’t longer wait. They must quickly return to Bright River and foil Queenie’s wedding.The girl sat majestically on Fewa’s back in dragon form. She looked Like a fairy in a scary Dragon escort. Queenie the graceful and Fewa the Dragon. In dragon size, Fewa was small because he was still young. But he can destroy a big house just by a wag of his tail. Fewa movement in the water also created ripples that made deep-sea animals restless.“I didn’t know Leya had that much magic. The little butterfly turned out to be a gigantic monster. If not for Leya’s wings that spread and made King Jumuck’s light turn around, maybe we would never have won.”Queenie just silently heard Fewa’s statement. It was also the first time she saw Leya’s true strength and self. The little butterfly has followed Queenie since she returned from the dead. But Queenie never asked who Le
Queenie’s words made King Darian more worried than before. He approached and stood right by Queenie’s side.“Queenie, I don’t expect a war with Nicundhra. They will summon the Dragons and destroy our kingdom,” whispered King Darian.“Dad, so worried?” Queenie stood face to face with her father.“I don’t want a war that carries risks to our people. After all, you agreed to marry Prince Fabian. I would not force you if you did not show love at the previous meeting.”Hearing what her father said, Queenie glanced at Prince Fabian. Seeing Queenie’s gaze fixed on him, Fabian became confident. He stood up and walked a few steps closer to the altar of the royal throne. Where Queenie and King Darian are.“Princess Queenie, whatever you say, we don’t take it to heart. Especially me. Not in the least. I was offended. I fully understand that everything you did was to protect your rights and your kingdom.”The tense atmosphere surrounding the Bright River palace hall got slightly smooth due to Pri
Queenie’s eyes, which had been showing cruelty ever since narrowed. The combination of a stony gaze and face as the snow seemed able to kill anyone standing in front of her.Queenie reached into the back of her dress. It was a piece specially designed for princesses. They could keep their valuables in the hidden back of the dress.She pulled out a ring with beautiful carvings and glittering diamonds. Someone had specially designed it.“Before I explain anything, I asked the royal servant. Come on, Clara!”A servant hurriedly and pale-faced advanced to the centre of the palace hall. The young woman looked nervous.“Tell Me, Clara! How did you find this ring?”“I ... I’m cleaning the room occupied by Prince Fabian. Then I found the ring on the bed. Since I saw it was a woman’s ring, I gave it to Princess Queenie. Maybe Princess Queenie dropped it while she was with Prince Fabian.”Queenie’s eyes turned to Queen Obelia.“Dad, isn’t this the ring you gave as a gift to Queen Obelia on her
Argo’s eyes were full of respect and obedience. Queenie surely touched the top of the dragon’s head. It amazed everyone, excellent view. A beautiful girl touched the dragon’s head affectionately.“Queenie, what are you doing?” asked King Darian. The King’s face looked frightened.His Princess was so much closer to the dragon. A creature that had been a symbol of fear for many people. By dragon’s power, King Eric and King Jumuck defeated various kingdoms in the world.“Argo!!! What are you doing? Cut them both off. Let their heads roll at my feet. I want my shoes on the head of the Great King Darian!” King Eric shouted.The dragon, which was the incarnation of Argo, flipped over. His initially yellowish-green eyes turned reddish-yellow. Argo showed his anger.Then he raised his body high. The dragon’s head touched the ceiling of the palace hall. Instantly, the top of the palace hall cracked. Everyone ran away because of several rockfalls. The atmosphere was getting chaotic. The sound o
The King turned to the beautiful Queen who had been his companion. The woman he has trusted to be Queenie’s surrogate mother. Although the King did not know the exact origin of Queen Obelia that he found in the forest, it did not reduce his love as a King for his Queen. Queen Obelia always behaved well and showed love for him. She also showed affection for Queenie. The King did not expect the Queen could betray his trust in such a painful way. Now all the people were waiting for the King’s final decision. “I have said that. I sentenced Queen Obelia to death. A king’s words will never change. I will do justice even to those I once loved!” Queen Obelia’s face grew pale. This time she couldn’t escape the punishment imposed by The King. There was no way to dodge anymore. Her beautiful face would not be able to make the King change his decision. She looked at King Darian and Queenie, who was standing tall on the altar of the Bright River royal throne. Queenie stared coldly at the Queen
“You are a very smart girl. You just need to think about yourself sometimes,” Deril whispered in Queenie’s ear.“I’ve done that before. More selfish than you can think.”“I’ve heard that from the rumors of the people of the Bright River Kingdom. Luckily, I met you when everything had changed.”“I regret that time. Long years wasted.”“Humans have to learn from mistakes. Sometimes the lessons don’t come once, but many times.”“One death and two lives is enough for me.”Queenie closed her eyes. Deril’s hug felt so comfortable for her. Her back that met Deril’s chest seemed to merge. Queenie could feel Deril’s heart beating for her. Deril’s scent had told Queenie that the man hugging her was not a grape grower. Deril’s warmth was the warmth that sank Queenie’s soul. His perfect blend had made her surrender easily in the man’s arms.They first met in Deril’s vineyards. Queenie knew him as The Farmer. Queenie has forgotten all that now. Deril was definitely no ordinary grape grower. Deril’
“Fergodo!” Argo exclaimed.Queenie remained sitting quietly in her place. She looked at Fergodo with wide eyes and waited for someone to explain. Fergodo drew closer to Queenie. A few steps later, they saw another three people behind Fergodo. One woman at Fergodo’s age and two young women. They were Fergodo’s wife and children.Arriving before Queenie, Fergodo crossed his right hand to his left chest. Then he bowed to Queenie. Behaviour followed by his wife and two children. Fergodo did not dare to look at Queenie’s face. His gaze fell on the floor. So did the three women who were with him.Deril smiled happily because Queenie didn’t react to the surprise he gave. The girl didn’t even ask.“Once you are determined to find Fergodo, I head first into this forest and try to find them. It turned out that they were trapped in this place. This forest has two layers of plains. The upper plains are where the gigantic beasts and all the chaos are. While the lower plains are where we are right
“Stop calling me Prince, or I will kill you,” Deril said with a cruel look.Argo really understood what Deril meant. The reflex call he utters could get him into big trouble. He knew precisely what kind of person was before him. Argo remembered Deril’s cruelty thousands of years ago. Memories that made him shiver and freeze. After the tragedy, only one thing could make Deril satisfied. It was dying of someone.He nodded slowly in understanding. His eyes looked into the room of the house behind Deril. The room looked bright and luxurious. The dominant colour decorations were gold and blue in almost all the house parts. Without a flame to illuminate it, the house seemed to glow. Like there was a unique sun placed in that house.The house in the middle of the forest looked like an abandoned hut. No one would have thought that the inside of that lousy house was more luxurious than a palace. Argo could feel the thick scent of magic enveloping the house. The outside and inside of the house
Argo surveyed the bottom of the cave. The bottom of the cave was covered in sand. Argo felt that sometimes the sand moved and sank a little. Maybe the sand made the cave air so hot and dry.“We are like trapped rats now. Outside, the gigantic beast is waiting for us. While there, the heat can kill us.” Fewa complained.“Shut your mouth, Fewa!” Leya rebuked.The little butterfly waved her hand. Hopefully, it could make her feel more comfortable. The hot air in the cave made their skin turn red. Queenie was busy observing the cave walls. It was as if she saw writing and drawings on the cave walls.The cave was black. Queenie’s eyes couldn’t be sure. Her hands kept groping and trying to read all the writing. It looked like it was strange writing. Not a language Queenie understood. The air in the cave was getting hotter.“It’s like being in a furnace, isn’t it?” Fewa asked. Who did he ask?Fewa ignored Leya’s warning. He kept on babbling about venting his frustration.“We are risking our
A light appeared from the red box in Queenie’s hand. It illuminated every side of the forest. Every time the light penetrated a side, then at that moment, an appearance appeared. The sighting with massive, horrifying beasts.Their size was even taller than the tree that was there. Their body size was enormous. They all stood in a row facing Queenie and her friends. Their shape wasn’t like ordinary animals.A tiger with long fangs barely touched feet. It was standing at the front. Looked like a Siberian tiger. It was bigger and scary. Behind the tiger stood another beast. All were in terrible shape and so large. Fewa, who was already at the threshold of the forest, slowly stepped back.“Oh, damn! They are real!. I almost became a meal,” Fewa hissed.Queenie, Leya, and Argo observed all the animals. They all looked silent and stood alert. They prepared to pounce on anyone who dared to enter their territory.“How can we enter this forest?” Queenie asked Argo.“Give me the box,” said Argo
When Queenie turned to look at the people who were cleaning up the corpses, Deril disappeared. Queenie snorted in annoyance. She didn’t understand how Deril always came and went as he pleased. Shouldn’t Deril know that Queenie… wanted Deril to always be around her?Fewa smiled wryly at the sight of Queenie’s gloomy face. He could see that Queenie had fallen in love with that bastard who owned the magical vineyard. Fewa walked towards Queenie. He came to Argo and started treating everyone that got a wound.Queenie stood and felt lost in her heart. She didn’t know since when feeling attached to Deril. She didn’t mind Deril’s closeness. Queenie enjoyed Deril’s touch. A touch that made her feel protected. With Deril, Queenie felt a different vibe.Something Queenie had never felt in her previous life. Queenie remembered all those times. The time before she died and came back to life. Queenie could still recognize that feeling. With Fabian, Queenie felt proud and happy. When everyone looke
A fireball fell right before King Eric. He stumbled and fell backward. He didn’t notice another fireball coming. The fireball fell right above his head. He was on fire and screamed like crazy.“Aaarrrgghhh!!! Help!!!!”He ran as he wanted. The people and the soldiers of the kingdom saw and screamed. They needed to stay hidden to protect themselves. The atmosphere at Nicundhra’s palace was very chaotic.Several sides of the palace burned. Many people were running towards the palace gate. They tried to get out of Nicundhra’s palace. Even the soldiers were now hiding. In normal conditions, they were brave soldiers. They couldn’t fight. The attacks were too sudden.The fireballs that Argo spewed out were more and more. Queenie and Deril watched the whole mess from Fewa’s back. The little dragon flew higher. Seeing King Eric tormented in pain, Queenie gave Argo instructions.“Now Argo!”The giant red dragon roared so loudly. He inhaled so deeply and exhaled to bursting of fire. The flames
The red orchid formula made Argo feel hot and burning. He ran out of king Eric’s room. The meter rolled on the grass in the courtyard of Nicundhra’s palace. The people and soldiers of Nicundhra watched Argo from the corners of the palace.Queenie, Deril, and Fewa ran after Argo. They passed the bodies of the Nicundhra soldiers lying on the floor of King Eric’s chambers. The soldiers’ bodies had separated from their heads. Blood pooled around the soldiers’ bodies. They had to step into the pool of blood to get out of King Eric’s room. Leya flew after them.Meanwhile, King Eric was still shocked by the scene before him. Dozens of Nicundhra’s royal guard troops who came with him to catch the red orchid formula thief died within minutes. They were slaughtered with lightning-fast and invisible movements. King Eric immediately followed them.The scenery in the palace courtyard made everyone wanna die. Their hearts stopped beating, and their minds were gone. Everyone lost their sanity while
Queenie, Deril, and Argo walked quickly into a hallway. The hallway directly connected the palace’s front to the King’s chambers. The secret hallway they found before the event. The hallway was created to save the King in an emergency.That was a small hallway, and no one was in the hallway. All the guards must be busy partying on the castle grounds. They didn’t think that Nicundhra was under threat. Their work had been hushed since the death of Prince Fabian.After they lost the controlling power of the Dragon, Nicundhra never attacked other kingdoms. Felt their Kingdom was safe and peaceful, all the guards went to the feast. Many hallways were left empty without guards.They arrived safely at the door of the King’s room. Argo opened the door to King Eric’s room. After Queenie and Deril entered, he immediately closed the door and locked it from the inside.Queenie looked straight at the wall above King Eric’s bed.“That should be the wall that King Eric said,” Queenie said.Deril and
