Draco saw Radcliff hastily following Gale's footsteps. His face looked happy, full of hope. Worry laid between hope and despair on Radcliff's face. Draco looked at Radcliff with a little jealousy. Was that how you feel about having a family? Draco didn't have a father and mother or family who were waiting for him. Sometimes he also wanted to feel it. He wanted someone waiting for him. Thinking about family made Draco's heart suddenly ache.
The only Draco family was Albus, and now Astrid too. Draco looked away, trying to get rid of the jealousy in his heart. He should not be jealous or sad because he did not have a family. He should be happy that Radcliff was seeing his family very soon. And actually, he had two persons that cared about him, three if he counted Edmund also.
Draco tried to distract himself. He gazed at the bamboo forest surrounding the path along the way. There was something that caught his eye in this bamboo forest. He felt many unseen eyes staring at h
Astrid stared at Radcliff's rendezvous with his parents in front of the Salamander Shrine altar with teary eyes. Jealousy filled her chest tightly. She felt sorry for herself. If she also had parents who loved her like that, maybe her heart wouldn't feel empty. Astrid shook her head. She couldn't be jealous. She should be happy for Radcliff. After all, at that moment she had Draco, who wanted her with all his heart. It was more than enough. Astrid wrung her hands, trying to get over her anxiety.Radcliff spoke hoarsely. He looked at his parents with teary eyes. Regret was clear on his face.“I didn't know you were still alive. If only I had known, I would have been looking for you all a long time ago,” said Radcliff, regretting how much time had been wasted. In the presence of his parents, Radcliff became a child again. The figure of a Red Dragon Slayer, leader of the Red Magic Tower, was nowhere to be seen."It's okay, son. It's not your fault. We c
Astrid fell on her knees on the floor. Her body limped. Astrid trembled, holding her head which was so sore. It felt like it was about to explode. Cold sweat flowed from her temples. Her face was as white as paper. She looked terrible in pain."Draco ..." groaned Astrid in pain. She closed her eyes in anguish. She couldn't endure any more pain. She looked suffered.“Astrid, calm down! What did you do to her?" Draco asked angrily. He hurriedly got up from his chair and hugged Astrid, and massaged Astrid's temples slowly."Forgive me. Astrid is sick from forcing herself to recall the memories locked by black magic in her body. Currently, many of her memories are fragmented and incomplete because of the black magic," said Lycus Lewis with a look of regret."What? Black magic? Why is there black magic on Astrid's body? Is Albus's dragon blessing can't purify that black magic?” Draco asked in shock.“If Albus's dragon blessing didn't e
“Genbu! Stealth Mode!" ordered Lycus Lewis in a booming voice.“Wait! Let me out!" shouted Draco in frustration and despair."Dovah Spaan!" exclaimed Zergenth while releasing dragon power in the form of light blue energy waves mixed with silver and gold thread in one powerful explosion. The energy waves formed a protective shield that protects Genbu's body in layers. The Dragon shield protected Genbu’s body with strong and thick energy from Zergenth.Meanwhile, Genbu's power in the form of a white mist surrounded Genbu's body like a ball on the outside and inside the dragon shield barrier that Zergenth created.Draco's mouth and clothes were covered in blood. However, he tried his best to stand up, and with the rest of his strength, Draco changed his form into a dragon shape and flew through the sky, trying to catch up with the gaps in the air that the dragon’s shield still lacked. Just as Draco accelerated his flight, the dragon s
Gale walked closer to Draco's, standing on the shore of the lake. Lycus Lewis stood not far from Draco while Zergenth hovered in the air in miniature beside Draco.“The secret power of the Elves? Are you kidding?" Draco asked, wincing in surprise.Gale shook his head and looked at Draco earnestly."Do I look like I'm kidding with you?" Gale asked Draco."No, I don’t think so. I believe that you're talking seriously," Draco replied quietly.Gale took out a scroll of parchment from his cloak and raised it in the air."Do you remember this parchment?" asked Gale."Yes, I remember that. I delivered the parchments to King Ruven Omanelis on behalf of Albus White. But I don't know what's in it. The writing on the parchment only appears in the hands of the official recipient of the parchment,” Draco replied."Yes, because the contents are very confidential. Do you know the reason Albus asked you to deliver the parchme
When Astrid opened her eyes, she was in a giant birdcage. Her feet were chained in shackles locked to a stake that stuck to the bottom of the cage. Both of her wrists were handcuffed with handcuffs that were connected by strong chains. Astrid looked around and noticed that the birdcage was hanging in a grand and luxurious room with a high ceiling. On one side of the room, there was a throne which was quite magnificent.The walls of the room had magnificent carvings made of the finest quality gold and gems. The throne chair was made of gemstones and pure gold. Astrid realized the hallmark of the carvings made on the chair. Bowen made the throne chair. The jewel attached to the throne chair had extreme magic power. Astrid recognized the aura of power. Those gems were dragon magic stones.The armor's helmet with spears and drawn swords lined the sides of the room from the throne to the front of the large door that provided the entrance. Astrid narrowed her eyes to get a b
Astrid burst into tears before the throne of the ice palace. Albus's spirit embraced Astrid gently and let the girl cry until she was satisfied. Albus embraced Astrid like a very handsome and charismatic father would embrace his daughter. After crying for a long time in Albus's chest, Astrid finally let go of her arms and stared at Albus with her swollen eyes."Thank you, Albus," said Astrid, her face flushed with embarrassment at her spontaneous hugging of Albus.Albus patted Astrid's head gently."Pleasure is mine, my child," replied Albus softly."Tell me how I can get away from Leonard and get back to Draco?" Astrid asked, wiping her tears with her sleeve.“Obey Leonard and earn his trust. Tell him you want to live and have fun. Tell him you want luxury, power, strength over other humans. He will definitely treat you well," said Albus advised."But, that means I betrayed Draco. I don't want to fellowship with Leonard,” Astrid
One month later.Brighton Estate.Edmund was standing on the training ground watching the preparations for the training drill being carried out by the knights of Brighton. The knights all looked so serious about sparring while sweating. Some of them were only shirtless with a chest protector on their heart.“Again! Swing your swords! Don’t be such a lazy! Are you a lady?" exclaimed the knight leader who trained each of the squads.“No, Sir!” said the knights in unison.On a different field, the spearmen were training. Meanwhile, some of the men in charge of climbing and launching explosives were training in different areas.Clank!Edmund had just thrown his opponent's sword until his opponent fell to his knees. Edmund swiftly drew his sword exactly an inch in front of his opponent's neck.“You are a dead man. Try again!" said Edmund, heaving his sword and holding out his hand."Thank you, si
Astrid looked at herself in the mirror. Over the last few months, she had learned about royal etiquette. She learned how to stand, how to walk, how to greet, everything she needed to know as a queen. Despite the fact, she would only become a puppet queen without power or strength. Yet by making her queen, Leonard had a real grip on her.The reflection in the mirror revealed a beautiful woman's face that looked foreign to Astrid's eyes. Her skin was so smooth and soft, and her complexion was enchanting. Her shoulder-length brunette hair was well styled and decorated with jeweled accessories. Her round amber eyes were adorned with sheer eye shadow and eyeliner that emphasizes the beauty of her eyes. The cosmetics covering her face made Astrid hardly recognize herself in the mirror. The woman's figure in the mirror looked so beautiful, but her eyes were blank and cold, as cold as Astrid's heart ever since she separated from Draco and realized the harsh reality that haunted her.
