Blood and Darkness Chapter 29: Mine for His
His evil laughter echoed as he blocked the arrows with his sword. It pissed me more seeing how he's enjoying this. I figured he's not just an evil asshole but also a lunatic."I am already the king of Frostville, Ophelia. And soon I will also be the king of this kingdom and will later on be the king of all kingdoms. I'm giving you a choice. If you marry me, I will give you the world as my queen. Be wise, sweetheart. Choose wisely.""You talk too much." I hissed and stomped on the ground. Fire flowed from where I was standing towards where Ren was.He leaped and launched an attack. He must have figured it out that I only want to fight him in long range. I was about to move to defend myself but my lips fell open when I couldn't.I braced myself for the pain it would give me, but to my surprise, I heard Raja's growl and Ren was slammed to the opposite wall.'That was close, My Lady. I apologize,' Raja said. 'His pet is old and quite experienced.'"No. You just came on time."I hurried to
Blood and Darkness Chapter 30: Evil to Evil
The moment I opened my eyes, I felt like I was reborn in new and more powerful body. I could feel the overflowing energy on my veins, the heat of fire around me, my soul aching for blood, and my every nerve screaming for death.Ren Lancaster's death."You really look so much more beautiful when you are all on fire. Maybe I should marry you soon. What do you think, my queen?"I moved my hands in rhythm with the beating of my heart to form the phoenix attack."First, I'm not your queen. Second, I will never marry you," I said firmly and sent him the huge blow of phoenix attack-fire that formed like a phoenix that could burn even a soul.Although he was fast enough to dodge so he won't have it bad, the blow was so powerful it still affected him. His left forearm up to his elbow was burned. I smirked. I knew he can dodge the attack, but I also knew there's no way he won't be injured.His smile vanished. There was no time to waste, I didn't give him time to recover. I sent him a rain of ar
Blood and Darkness Chapter 31: Revelation
"It's not that I don't want it, but as what I have told you, I need to do some things here because of the agreement I had with the old man. Actually, this 'old man' I'm talking about is the legendary magical healer from the west. Our queen, Queen Romina was poisoned by the poisonous flower Lily of Morte during the day of my coronation as the crown princess. No healer could make the cure aside from the magical healer so I traveled with the princes to the West Evergreen Forest. But unfortunately, the magical healer communicated with me privately and offered me the agreement. He will give the cure but in exchange, I will have to awaken his son who is cursed and sleeping in the River of Flames. And that I should also marry him. I didn't have a choice that time and I badly wanted to save the queen.""Oh God. Magical healer of the west! West Evergreen Forest... I can't believe you have went through all of that!" Lucia said, shock of all that I had said."But why were you accused and almost
Blood and Darkness Chapter 32: Whole Truth
"Are you sure you want to go to River of Flames? That place is very dangerous," Orion said again when we were out of the tavern. I don't know it if it was concern or what."I need to," I simply said. "Thank you, Lucia, Orion. But I guess we should part ways at this point?""But you don't know where the River of Flames is, right? How would you get there?""Uh, maybe I will ask some people along the way?"Lucia sighed. "You know what is the reason why I don't want to tell you where that place is? I don't want you to go there because I'm worried that something might happen to you. Even we just know each other for barely a few days, thinking that you might face something dangerous alone makes me worry like hell. Please, think twice about going to that place, Ophelia. You are already a friend to me and I hope that we can see each other again soon after we part ways here.""Will you try to awaken that man you believe is just sleeping there?"Orion's question made me stop. Lucia looked at he
Blood and Darkness Chapter 33: Lucia's Summoning
"Honestly, reading is not my hobby at all, Ophelia. So I only remember vague details about it. Plus the writer wrote it in riddles that made it more difficult to understand for me.""Riddles? What kind of riddles? Do you remember any of it?"She shook her head. "I'm sorry. I only remember one and I don't know if it could even help.""Let's just try. Maybe it could help," I said. At critical times like this, you should see hope in everything for you to see solution. Because if you go negative and full of doubts all the way, you would not solve anything."Under the full blood moon, the wind gushed softly in the middle of dawn. Cries in the forest echoed and the man in the boat kissed the shadows of dark souls..." Lucia stated the riddle she remembered.I contemplated in silence."I don't know what is the meaning behind that at all. No matter how I try, I just couldn't understand," Lucia said frustratedly."Wait... the wind gushed softly in the middle of dawn... cries in the forest... th
Blood and Darkness Chapter 34: The Fire's Foe
The moment I stepped onto the blazing pool of flames, I didn't feel any heat. I only felt warm as though I was traveling in the middle of the winter and it was one of the few times I stop by to warm myself up. It didn't hurt me at all. In fact, it even comforts me at some point."Woah."I opened my eyes at once and turned at my back to see if I failed and got Lucia and Orion hurt. I was relieved when I saw them totally fine."You didn't get hurt at all?" I asked to make sure. I don't want them to be hurt in any way because of me."No," Lucia shook her head at the same time Orion did.Then my eyes drifted to Raja. He was just a couple of yards away, looking at the surrounding in a defensive stance as if he is expecting an unexpected attack from somewhere.I turned to look at my surrounding. Contrary to its name, River of Flames is nothing like a river. It is a cave, a huge stone cave. Only that, all the things you can see around are on fire, blazing, glowing red. And the path in the mi
Blood and Darkness Chapter 35: Not Burned
"Why weren't you burned by the pool of lava?" I asked Lancelot."I think it's because you want to protect the people around you. You went here with a friend, right? You were shielding them from the fire, so that is why when you fell onto the pool of lava at the same time I was awaken, you also unconsciously shielded me, that was why I wasn't hurt.""Did you mean you were sleeping down that blazing lava?""Yes, I was. But I was froze inside a huge ice that was made the witch who cursed me. She was very powerful that was why the ice where she caged me protected me from being melted by the lava."I nodded. "I understand.""May I know your name?" He asked carefully as if he was being careful not to annoy me in any way."Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Ophelia, Lancelot. Thank you for saving me."He shook his head with a warm smile plastered on his lips. "No, Ophelia. It wasn't me who saved you. In fact, it was your presence who awaken me. You saved me from the curse. You
Blood and Darkness Chapter 36: Death Didn't Come
"Yes, but as you see, just a little trick I made and I got so weak." She smiled bitterly."You are still young, Lucia. There are so much rooms for you to grow. You are a princess by birth and I know that just like your ancestors, you would be a great summoner, too.""I hope so, Ophelia. I really hope."I was about to speak when all of the sudden, the ground went shaking. My eyes widened and I was about to hold Lucia when a huge crack of the ground went in between us, it grew larger by the moment, and showed a large mass of burning lava."Lucia!" I shouted in horror because we were at the opposite sides and there was a huge drift between us that would surely melt anything or anyone if one would fell to it.I turned to see if Raja was still at my back but what I saw was the red smoke going to my necklace."What happened, Raja? Are you all right?"'I am fine, my lady. But there is something in this place that forced me to go back to the necklace. It is forbidding you to summon me. I supp
