"Pull the screen!" shouted the captain.
A crew member immediately pulled the sail when the ship began to lose direction due to strong winds that hit.
The waves of sea water rocked ships using coal as fuel. Worries began to appear in the captain of the ship, on the crew and soldiers who had memorized the dangerous terrain they were on, especially during a storm like this. Strong winds and heavy rain made the ship experience strong shocks.
Nathania came out of her cabin to check the situation outside after hearing a very loud thunder and the crew of the ship who were busy maintaining the balance of the ship they were traveling on.
"Your Majesty, you better stay in the cabin! there's a storm outside, don't come out!" asked Jia who started worrying about their safety.
"Storm? is it really bad?"
"The soldiers are asking us to stay in the cabin, because it is very dangerous if we get hit by the waves crashing into the ship!" Jia looks very restless. In
Nathania and Keith were silent for a moment, trying to guess what really happened to Aiden. They knew, just because Aiden didn't seem to be chasing them anymore didn't mean they were completely safe. Who will know what will happen next?"Alright, we have no choice but to go in and find out what's really going on!" Keith said. His eyes glanced into the cave which looked very dark from the outside. Yet he had a hunch that they would find answers to the questions that were running through their heads.Seeing Keith's earnestness, Nathania realized that she had to be strong. Even though her little heart still couldn't accept that the sacred treasure had disappeared, she had no choice but to examine it herself."Okay, come on!" She said confidently.They stepped cautiously into the cave, through the eerie darkness. The cave was completely dark as they had expected, but as they stepped further in, a bright blue light began to clearly fill the cave which looked l
"Is it true?" Keith smiled. Seeing Nathania who was so worried about him. Somehow it made him very grateful that he survived.Keith gripped Nathania's hand tightly, the pounding in his chest made him believe that there was still hope for his love to be reciprocated. However, compared to his passionate love, the desire to save the world was much greater, seeing the earnestness in Nathania's eyes.They had been running for 30 minutes and there was no sign of Aiden chasing them. Seeing Nathania's very pale and exhausted face, Keith thought that they should rest, especially since the sky was getting dark."Are you okay?" Keith asked. He stopped in his tracks. Beside him, Nathania was panting with cold sweat running down her body.Nathania nodded, she tried to force herself even though her body was pushing her to give up and rest."I... I'm fine! There's no need to worry!""You're not fine, we should rest now!" Keith pulled her hand towards the r
"Ugh... I can't walk anymore!" Nathania sat limply, after walking through the dense forest to find the cave.She knew from the start that it was impossible to catch up with Aiden, she was too timid to fight him. Although she had intended to use her power. However, considering the risk that would arise from her inability to control her powers, Nathania gave up.Keith had fought, fought with all her might and even sacrificed her own life to get her to this place and now, again she was taking on the role of a useless loser."Hiks ..." tears welled up in her eyes. She hated herself so much. Whenever bad luck happened to her, she would definitely blame herself for having to live by taking on such a huge role like this. Being a savior is not her dream, being a world hero should not be her responsibility. However, she was forced to do all of this."Nathan ... why? why?"Nathania was tight in her chest, the pain she was trying to endure. Nathan's face, Kei
Aiden arrived in front of a large cave. His eyes glanced at the holy scroll he had snatched from Keith and opened it to confirm that he was really in front of the cave where the shrine was."Right, this is the place!" he thought. Aiden stepped slowly into the mouth of the dark cave.When his feet just set foot into the cave, he was greeted by small glowing creatures flying in the cave. The light from their bodies brightened the dark cavern and the blue crystals that filled the walls and ceiling of the cave looked extremely sparkling.Aiden was sure that he was one step away from the divine treasure. Freeing himself from Diavolos' curse, that was his goal. Aiden knew that his mind and soul had been controlled, therefore it was impossible for him to resist Diavolos' wishes."You see? just a step away, that way you can be as free as you want!" he said."Aiden, you are truly amazing! I've been waiting for this moment for so long and only you can make i
Nathania jumped down the cliff by relying on the vines as a handle to keep her from falling."Sraaakkk...""Aaagh..." Her feet slipped on the damp ground. Nathania fell several meters before her feet landed on the ground."Ugh..." She winced as she fell to the ground. This is really bad, her legs are too sore to move. If she didn't find the cave quickly, then Aiden would definitely catch up with her.Nathania got up slowly with pain all over her body. She could not believe that she would dare to jump from up there without a rope or preparation, just relying on the plants and trees around her."Damn, my leg hurts so bad! How is it? If I don't find the cave soon, Aiden will find it first!" She thought. Nathania looked up, trying to watch for any sign of Aiden's presence.She didn't know if Keith was currently still fighting against Aiden and was buying time like he said? however, the outburst made her unsure that Keith would be okay. Nathania
“Do you think I and the other ministers are allowed to hide or run away? You are wrong to think that we are that selfish. It's true, there are so many selfish people who will definitely save themselves, I think it's only natural. If I could, I also wanted to run away and get out of here, getting my family as far away as possible so we could be safe. I don't care if you all have to die to buy time until help arrives. Yes, that's if I become part of the selfish people. But unfortunately, the King asked me and all the ministers, state officials and nobles to stay in our house and not leave our people. The king does not want to sacrifice his people, if someone has to be sacrificed to buy time, then we are the ones! In fact, the king sacrificed the son he loved so much to find the divine treasure alone, all for the safety of everyone. Prince Nathan must be struggling, fighting against enemies who also want the sacred treasure. This morning, the soldiers had prepared with their swords and
