I open my eyes just to close it again. The bright light coming from the sun hurts my eyes so I waited until I got accustomed to the light. Somewhat I smell something like flowery scent so I feel relaxed before I open my eyes. I look around to see that I am in a wide luxurious room. “You are awake?” I look towards the voice to see Lana smiling at me as she leans on the wall.“Not again. Why do I keep on waking up like this? W-Where are we?” I utter in frustration as I slowly get up.I look around the room. It’s a relief to see that I am in a much better room. It is like any other room inside a mansion. Pink princess bed, coffee table on the side, side table beside the bed and other expensive stuffs. I don’t need to be a detective to figure out that I am inside the castle. “When you become unconscious we brought you in one of the rooms of the cattle after we freed the people, the higher officials, and the king and queen from the dungeon” Lana said making me sigh.“How long have I been
After we rested we bid our farewell to the kingdom’s people and to the king and queen before we ride out. I look back to the gate after we ride out of the kingdom. For some reason I feel something weird on my chest. It is not fear, not nervousness, not excitement but something I can’t explain. I look at my companions. I feel jealousy emerging from my chest seeing Leo and Flora riding together in which Leo is like hugging Flora from behind. Lana is riding beside us alone while Leo and Flora are riding in front. For some reason we decided to ride on 3 to make it more convenient and faster. “Are… Are you… feeling alright Riri?” I flush upon hearing that and feeling his warm breath on my nape.“I-I am fine Vlash, no need to worry.” I said hiding my burning face.Since I am not a great rider and that I don’t know how to direct this ‘delph’ a creature they uses as means of transportation like horses on our world, I have to ride with someone. Since Vlash can protect me as what they keep on i
I just look at Vlash still unable to react to what he said. How did he find out that Lana.... is a magical fairy? This is so bad when Lana is not here. Shall I tell him?“I sensed her magic. I put things together and observe you two while we travel before. There is something more to it than what you’ve told us about who you two are. You are hiding things from us, right?” Vlash said looking at me with his intense gaze.“I-I... yes- yes she is. Lana said that her kind was all sold to slave trades for their magic so we have to keep it a secret. T-That is all what we have keep from you.” I said before I look at his face. I don’t want to lie but I can’t possibly tell him that I have a mysterious looking necklace on my neck that he and the others can’t see. That…… THIS is the reason why I meet Lana and why I am here. I look at his eyes just to see him looking at me thus making an eye contact. Once again I start to be drawn into his lovely bluish eyes. Then it happens.... again.I am standin
We all wake up early in the morning and continue our journey. As usual I am riding with Vlash and I can feel my heart beating as fast as we continue the ride. I look towards Leo and Flora riding in front of us, I see how sweet they are as Flora gazes up to Leo and smile. I feel this sting on my chest making me look up at Vlash’ face to see him still emotionless but is looking towards the direction of Leo and Flora to. I swear I see how he swallows hard.“We are already near the edge of Eurie. After a few hours we will cross the border that separates Eurie and the Forbidden Land.” Lana said as she rides beside us.“That is right; it’s more dangerous in there than in here. Stay on guard.” Leo said as I sigh.We are as silent as we travel passing rivers and forests. I feel so tired with my legs on the back of this creature and how the way is so uneven making the ride bumpy and unpleasant for me. We all came into a stop when we arrive on an open field full of beautiful flowers.“We should
When the bright light fades the Lebron soldiers are alerted seeing group of men standing in front of us holding their weapons. The acting leader of the Lebron soldiers steps back in surprise.“Who- Who are they?” the leader utters in surprise making him step back.“The Covans, they are the hunters that are feared by many. They are here, how?” said by one of the Lebron soldiers as they all look so rattled.“We are having so much fun hunting in the forest. Then, OUR little sister calls us just because of the pest like you. Well, this will be more fun than hunting a beast.” Wei said swinging his sword on his sides and his followers attacks those Lebron soldiers. I just watch as Wei’s group fight those groups of Lebron soldiers who seem to have lost their drunkenness when Wei’s group appeared. After a few hours of sword fighting and screaming those Lebron soldiers are all defeated, most died and those who survive run away wounded. “You guys alright? Riri are you feeling good?” Wei said w
I open my eyes and just to be daze as to why I am inside a manmade small shade with leaves roof and wide leaves as my bed. “You are awake.” I look up to that see who owns that cold but heartwarming voice just to see Vlash looking at me as he stand in front of me covering the heat of the fire behind him.To what I see I must be sleeping just beside the fire with this shade covering me. I look at Vlash as he sits beside me making me able to see that it is still dark.“I admit I was shocked to what you did prior to you calling Wei and his group. I never thought that you are capable of doing and saying those unbecoming words.” Vlash said and I just look at his face while he looks at the fire.“I-I must do what I know that I can do to help. I have no training in facing such situations, I don’t even know how to use magic, and I thought I should try what I usually see back in..... back in our world.” I softly utters making sure no other person can hear us.“Hmnnn it’s really best if we train
We all are tired and I can see that it is already midnight base on how clear the moon is so we will have a few hours of sleep before we can have the battle with Wei and his men which is making me uneasy. Can- can we be able to fight them? For me, I can’t possibly hurt someone I know of. That is going to be my weakness. I slowly get up from that bed leaves I am sleeping at and look at Lana beside me. I gasp seeing Vlash going towards the deserted part of the forest away from where we are. “Where- Where is he going?” I get up and follow him just to see him standing there looking at his hand then he creates a ball of light and aim to a tree but when he fired it, it destroy everything on its way leaving a still burning leaves and branches then completely shatters the tree. “Having a hard time controlling your magic?” I said making him turn and sigh upon seeing me.“It’s destructive and strong. I can’t get to focus and control it.” Vlash said looking at his hands.“Hmmnn why not try clea
I sit up shocked and I touch my check then look at my hand to see blood.“Look sir, she is awake!” one of the Lebron soldier said upon seeing me sits straight.I look at where Wei’s traitor friend is to see him standing there as blood come out of his mouth followed by his body falling in half then a fountain of blood gush out and drops everywhere. I can feel something so hot emerging from within me as I look at the body of Felipo on the floor.“Tie her!” shouted that leader with a scar face. “You- You killed him, he did what you wanted him to do just to save his parents. He did what you wanted him to do.” I utter as this rising anger overcome me.His soldier are about to grab me when Lana stand up and fight those soldiers. Flora, Wei, Leo and Vlash also did the same as they fight those soldiers.“You- You take lives as if it’s just so easy. You could have just let him go. YOU!” I said as I pull my sword and hold it firmly.“Riri, that man is mine. He killed one of my men.... even if F
