Fuschia caught her breath. Then smiled at Merri who was, fortunately, fine. "Thank goodness you're okay, Merri. You too, Dylan. But where is Pasha?" As Fuschia's question was answered with the forlorn expressions of the many people surrounding her, a whoos of cold air hit her. Dylan wrapped his arms around Fuschia's body who was shivering instantly, while Merri fell to her knees followed by several maids in the room. Fuschia's blue eyes trembled. She looks at Dylan in dismayed, “Don't tell me. No way, that's not true, right? No… NO!” A shrill, heart-rending scream soared into the night. Defeating the sound of thunder that shatters the night sky. “Pasha… has been kidnapped, I've sent people to follow their trail. I'll be looking for him too soon, so, uhm, please Fuschia, come back to me." Dylan's pleading came to nothing as Fuschia didn't catch the rest of his words after he says that Pasha was kidnapped. "Fuschia?" "Milady?" "Lady?" “Call the doctor!” Her face turned complet
Fuschia's face and hands were wiped with a black cloth soaked in warm water. They helped Fuschia put on a thick garment over her cold body. Then they prepared a pair of women's equestrian outfits for Fuschia.Fuschia looked around at the servants and guards with keen eyes. This time she was determined to catch any spies who might still stay in this palace.From what she heard bit by bit, monsters suddenly appeared in the palace kitchen while she was deep in sleep. So everyone falls into panic. It must be a distraction to make the kidnapping easier.The guards and knights rushed to annihilate the monster and failed to notice any other moves. The monsters are thought to be the chef and his assistant in charge of the kitchen.'That poor chef. He knows nothing but then turned into a monster. It meant that there were insiders deliberately 'creating' monsters as Sarah did. How? By potion? Then he might still have the potion.'Fuschia needed to catch him to extort everything he knew about th
Maftah was berserk, ordering all servants involved in making the food to be arrested right away, his own attendant was no exception. Except, all those servants are already dead as monsters. Maftah is devastated.Not only did the incident harm his important guest, but it also harmed the people who had entrusted their lives to him.Maftah was seized with maddening fury. He felt like he was being stripped as all of this happened inside his fortress. This is a blatant mockery.Maftah glance towards the stairs. He remembered how Thebet had insisted that he was right, and now, it seemed like he had no problem using any means to prove his point.This tragic event occurred when his hands were full of monsters that suddenly invaded the neutral area.So he just put two and two together.BRAK! Maftah pointed the tip of his sword at the neck of Thebet who had just stood up from his seat."Why did you do that?" Maftah asked.He deliberately placed Thebet under house arrest so that he would not hav
“Maryah, what are you-”With a face filled with tears, Maryah shot a resentful glare at Maftah. Then she screams. “You killed brother Thebet! How could you! For the likes of her!”Maftah clenched his jaw. “Shut your mouth now, Maryah.” He warned her with a low whisper.“You should be ashamed for killing your own people for that b*tch! Because of her, brother Thebet is de… argh! It's all because of you, b*tch!”Fuschia pulled her chin arrogantly, and piercing eyes toward her. She didn't want to spend another second in that place and wanted to head straight for Drachentia. But the woman in front of her scratched the wall of her patience.“Is that why you conspired with Drachentia to kidnap me and my son?”“YEAH RIGHT, B*TCH! Because if you go, we will survive!”"Maryah!" Maftah scolds her hard but at the same time shields her from Fuschia's apparent rage.Maftah grimace in pain as Fuschia covered his arm with chunks of ice. “Ugh, lady, please turn a blind eye to this ignorant sister of
Hayden massaged his temple, then took a deep breath. “So far… I'm trying to solve it on my own. As the Crown Prince, I try not to make a lot of people panic. But,"The nobles listened to Hayden intently. Hayden looked sad and angry.“But I am very arrogant. Because it turns out that I need many people to help me.”Seeing Hayden looking so down, the nobles immediately sympathized with him who had just lost his father but was already carrying the burden of the kingdom alone. Not to mention the news that his mother also fell ill due to the death of the king.Of course, the part about the queen falling ill is just a rumor deliberately spread to get sympathy from many people.Hayden sat down, then motioned for the others to sit down as well.“Your Highness, what exactly has happened this time?” asked a noble carefully.“Before that, why is there an empty seat? Was anyone absent?" Ask Hayden to scrutinize the empty spot.He thought, which family would dare to be absent from the king's summo
-1 hour before the royal meeting-Laura's head peered through the large wooden door. She was inspecting the area around, which was fortunately deserted. The deserter the area around her, the more freely she can express herself.Laura closed the door carefully, then she turned around, and burst into tears. With a groan, she carried Pasha into her arms. She patted Pasha's softback with a careful touch.“BWA- WAAA- WAAA.” Pasha's cries were still booming. Especially now that it was closer to Laura's ear, so the sound was deafening.But that's no big deal.“Young master… sob, how did you get here? Oh lord, what did they do to you that you're so messy? They didn't hurt you did they?" Laura examined Pasha's body, and thankfully, there didn't seem to be any bruises or cuts.When her gaze landed on Pasha's messy hair, she frowned sadly. "That jerk! How could he pull out your hair like that?!”Laura stroked Pasha's head gently.The blood in her heart seemed to be squeezed out as she watched Ha
"Did you hear the birds chirping just now?""Hahahahaha." The army of the Luxor family tightened their laughter at the sarcastic joke said by their leader."That old woman!" A low curse was spoken from the royal army's side.It was not an offensive exclamation for Madame Luxor as she lives her whole life getting curses from her husband's family. The young man's curses even sounded refreshing to her ears.It was not easy for a man with high self-esteem to witness a woman riding a warhorse with a sword strapped to her waist, and even more to become the leader of an army. And of course, the sword wasn't just decoration.Madame Luxor had long kept her fangs carefully for the safety of her family. But now she dared to bite thanks to Fuschia being by her side. If there was no Fuschia, she would still have doubts. Now, she is ready to change the world with her.The commander of the Luxor family glared at the young soldier, then spoke, “Madame, should I give you his neck later?”“Pft! What's
“HOOONKKK!”The battle horn was blown loudly and the sounds shouted back and forth from one group to another in different locations.The sounds signaled something terrible to everyone within the palace. The majestic palace with the largest number of soldiers in the entire kingdom, which seemed to be invincible, that night was surrounded by the rebel army in an instant. The arrival of the rebels left no chance for anyone in the palace to prepare.The servants ran frantically with short breaths in search of a way out. Some ran in groups, some sneaked around like rats, and some chose to hide in places they thought were not visible.Whatever their decision, there was no way out as every existing gate had been surrounded by the invading army that had begun to enter the palace, even the doghole some servants made to sneak out. And they weren't so stupid as to sneak between the soldiers who were fighting.Tremendous confusion and fear washed over the faces of those who regretted having dedic
Tuyul is nowhere to be found.No matter how hard Mbayul and I searched for him, we could only conclude that Tuyul had left us. It's hard to accept that reality, especially when we don't say goodbye to each other.Mbayul and the other wandering fairies are still with us. They worked for me as a royal CCTV. They were the right creatures for the job because few could see them, even though many wizards had appeared now.Then, when Pasha was three years old, I learned Tuyul's last story."Mom, do you still remember Uncle Tuyul?"One night, Pasha asked about it.Pasha has excellent verbal skills at an early age, and he can already form complex sentences well, making it easier for us to converse. He also remembered some things about his childhood, when he was one year old.He even remembered the house in the middle of the forest that we once lived in in the Haddad Kingdom, and he also remembered our battle with the monsters. Therefore, it is not surprising that later those memories returned
It had not been six months since Dylan had served as the new king of Drachentia Kingdom, and he already held the title of 'Drachentia's golden wolf.' In that short time, he was feared by the kingdoms around Drachentia. Mainly because of his achievements in eradicating all the monsters and the remaining alchemist in Drachentia.Not only that, but he also paralyzed the illegal trade that occurred in Drachentia's sea. Without mercy. And it turns out that his actions have spread to shake the economic stability of other kingdoms in the vicinity, which have outsmarted Drachentia in terms of trade at sea.Then today was a big meeting with the diplomacy of the allied kingdoms, who were present for fear that Dylan would prey on their kingdom. As many people know that Drachentia is an archipelago kingdom, I think they are afraid that their kingdom will become one of Dylan's new islands.'But he's not that ruthless tho.' I smiled proudly at Dylan sitting beside me with a sinister expression.As
My second marriage ceremony.As Dylan requested, before the king's coronation ceremony, we had a wedding ceremony.Of course, a lot needs to be prepared for a royal family wedding, but since we want it to be done as soon as possible, the preparations are quite simple. After all, we want to be crowned husband and wife soon. So we don't think much about banquets and so on.I'm wearing a white wedding dress that looks as divine as the diamond sprinkles on top of it. When the sun's rays fall on me, my dress will twinkle.Why can there be such a beautiful wedding dress ready in such a short time? The answer is because of the enthusiasm of Laura and Mr. Andre, who had prepared the dress long ago, even when they didn't know when I could wear it. Likewise, with Dylan's wedding tuxedo.“Milady-oops, your majesty, you look so beautiful. You are like a goddess!”"Isn't she more like an angel because of her white dress?""Well, our lady can do both. Hohohoho~” Merri and the others had fun dressin
The day of Crown Prince Hayden's trial has finally arrived. The sky was a dull gray, and people flocked to the High Court to witness the historic trial in an uneasy mood. Their minds were in turmoil.Dylan and I sat on the witness stand. I could feel all eyes on us. I heard the whispers of the people behind us as they were the seats of the nobles."I'm here. Don't be nervous." Dylan whispered. Pulling up the nervousness I didn't realize ate up my consciousness.Even though I heard that Madame Luxor and Laura were trying to get a lot of news written in the newspapers in our favor, that doesn't mean everyone would necessarily believe all that. Especially the nobles who might be aiming for royal power through the royal family.More so when they heard their next king was a formerly enslaved person and a victim of alchemist experiments—not forgetting that I would also be their queen."Phew."The supreme judges entered the courtroom. I know one of the high judges who sit in the highest seat
After that great battle, I slept like the dead for two days. I pushed myself too much, so that's how it turned out.Meanwhile, Laura and Madame Luxor mobilized a lot of news media in the form of newspapers to write down everything that had happened overnight—starting from the reason for the rebellion led by the Luxor Family with the help of the Mountravven Family troops to my surprising appearance.Madame Luxor quickly prepared everything related to the news as she owned information guilds. So she has planted several reporters on the scene to capture everything that happened since the beginning of the battle.And as professional reporters they are, reporters get a lot of 'astonishing' pictures, which are then pasted in their newspaper headlines.From the picture of Hayden leading the monster army, then the picture of me using water magic, and the picture of the dragon in the sky that blessed Dylan and me. Of course, the last picture was the one that seemed the most implausible, except
I don't know what just happened. What I do know is that Dylan suddenly had Hayden's sword in his hand, and from that sword came a superpower(?) of a giant rolling circle that sliced through the monsters with a single numbness. Then because of that power, Dylan's energy seemed to be sucked in and made him fall limply into my arms.I panicked because I thought Dylan was about to die, but he was only limp for a moment. Because after that, we and some of the 'healthy' soldiers explored the temple.Of course, at the time, I also didn't know why people looked at us with amazement as they said that we received blessings from the dragon that stroked our heads with its feet.I don't even know anything about the dragon in the sky. But I think it might be Lord Drachen.Anyway, I met someone I almost forgot on the way to the temple."I'LL KILL YOU!" Sarah was about to jump at me with a vengeance, but her body was already being held back by the soldiers who followed us."It's all over, Sarah," I
"Where are you going, sir bastard?"Without hesitation, Merri engulfed Raymon's body with her smoldering blue flames.“AAAAAAHHHHH!” Raymon writhed in pain while screaming hysterically; then, his body was kicked by the grande monster.Merri smirked as she looked down at Raymon, who was flipping like a dying fish.Merri thought, 'Look, how easy it is to crush that bastard. If I were stronger since long ago, then Milady and my life wouldn't be this messed up.'"Merri?! What are you doing here?" Fuschia approached Merri, looking happy at the top of a tree.“Milady! I did it! I burn that bastard!”“Gre- great job, girl. But don't push yourself as you're still recovering, Merri."“Of course! Hahahaha, this is fun. What about you, milady? Uh? Your head is bleeding!” Merri almost jumped from her position to get closer to the flying Fuschia.That made Fuschia flustered. But then Fuschia calmed Merri down. “Calm down. I already drank that potion.”"Ah! The magic medicine, of course!”Fuschia s
Fuschia stared at the man in front of Madame Luxor warily. "Commander Hugh?"She recognized the man before as The Knight Commander of Drachentia, Hugh Connor of the Count Connor Family.Dylan frowned wryly then spoke in a low voice, "I should have made sure you died in my hands."The knight commander Hugh bowed his head as he faced Fuschia. He didn't raise his head as he spoke.“I… had time to come to the Crestine Hall. There I met Lady Laura and the survivors. Then I… learned the truth from her. So please, allow me to atone for my sin of stupidity, Your Highness.”Fuschia knew Hugh Connor as a knight loyal to the kingdom. His loyalty is shown by a devotion to the leader. He is known as the 'hunting dog' of the late king who has bitten many nobles or rebels who threaten the power of the late king.Like Hayden and Raymon, he was trained by the late king and the late general commander in swordsmanship. That was why the sword styles of the three were almost the same. So he has a good rel
“FUCHIA!”It was Dylan's voice. He emerged from behind the soldiers."Dylan!" Fuschia immediately raised her legs to shorten the distance between the two.The two of them ran at each other with their arms wide open.Amid a battle between monsters and humans that seemed like it would never end, Dylan and Fuschia hugged each other tightly.The whirlwind of their minds and the erratic beating of their heart were relieved by the familiar scent they breathed in on each other. The tight hug they shared at that time seemed to convey all the tiredness in their hearts and minds.Then, along with a brief kiss they shared, each of them killed the charging monster. Fuschia separates the head of the monster charging at Dylan with her ice saw, while Dylan rips the neck of the monster charging at Fuschia with his sword.Never before seen a romantic and horror moment happen in one frame. So many soldiers thought so and accidentally witnessed the scene.“What's wrong with your sword? Why are they so d
