In Love with a Human CHAPTER 53: Too Late?
VERGILBurn's Bar, New York CityVergil fell flat on his face on the concrete once the portal finally chucked him out of its endless vortex of doom.Once he got bearings of his surroundings, he slowly stood up, his knees shaking from his journey in that cursed portal. As soon as he took a step, he stumbled into a bush and threw up the contents of his stomach."Gah!" Vergil wiped his mouth clean from his vomit. "Drat. How could Colter survive that thing? It's a product of torture."It took a while for Vergil to follow Colter on Earth and the magical rabbit was to blame. He had been camped in the forest for a couple of days since the King gave out the order of bringing Colter back. For days, there was no sign of the magical bunny. He thought the King was yanking on his chainmail when he said that Colter followed one and led him to the portal. But after patiently waiting, it did indeed appear. It led him to the portal and now he was on Earth.Vergil took a look around him. He seemed to h
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 54: Humans Are Just Like Us, Aren't They?
VergilNew York City, Planet Earth“I beg your pardon?” the captain of the Royal Guard asked Vida, as he heard her mention Colter. The very person he was looking for. His hand was on the hilt of his sword the moment he said these words, his eyes gave off an ominous glow that made Vida step back and recalibrate what she said.“I believe you said Colter.” Vergil said calmly, disciplining himself with calm breaths, he had fought off the instinct to draw his blade. “Who are you and what do you know about the prince?”“I think it would be better for me to ask you, who the hell you are first” Vida said in a shaky voice, brave but still quivering at the amount of bloodlust Vergil had emanated towards her, remembering the dreams Colter had, this could potentially be an enemy.Vergil relaxed his posture and stood straight and stared Vida in the eyes, “I am Vergil, Captain of the Royal Guard to King Malik Howard and Queen Regina Howard.”“Prove it.” Vida said stubbornly, still worried that he m
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 55: Go Signal
Colter Kingdom of HavoccThe new prince of havoc saw the approaching troops, from a distance he could sense their sheer joy at what happened. This was a squadron of bowmen King Dyron had sent out earlier, his father had briefed him about their plans and now he was caught up.He stared around and saw the Kingdom in all its evil glory, it looked like a place that mothers would use to scare their children with. King Dyron’s palace stood atop of a cliff where it overlooked hovels of countless numbers, where the denizens of the kingdom had stayed.The sky was forever darkened laced with streaks of crimson, trees did not grow, they stayed withered and leafless. A slight pang of pain shot across Colter’s chest as he pondered this, not knowing what might have caused this as he merely set his eyes on the dead trees.Hordes of creatures of all sizes patrolled the areas, all of them were armed to the tooth, their armor was emblazoned with Dyron’s evil looking crest that looked like a skull spla
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 56: Onto The Kingdom
VidaBurn’s Bar, New York City“Hey, Peter…” Vida spoke softly to Peter who was smiling at them from behind the counter, Tessa stood beside her nervously at about what they were going to do. She understood that Peter was a kind man, but they did not want to come off as taking advantage of his hospitality. “Yes, Ms. Vance and Ms. Rodriguez?” Peter asked them in his usually kind voice, “Do you need help with anything?”“About that…” Vida said stuttering wildly, unable to put the words in her mouth, Vergil was patiently waiting for them in the nearby alley. “So, uhhh, we need to take an extended leave of absence, if that’s okay with you, Peter” Tessa interjected suddenly, getting over her nervousness. Peter stopped what he was going and stared at them intently with a blank face, as if trying to read them, “Extended leave of absence?” he repeated.“Yes.” Vida and Tessa said together.“We are needed out of the state” Tessa lied immediately, “But we’ll be back or not, if you do not want
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 57: A Modernized Deity
VidaThe Great Hall, Kingdom of Howard"Damn, their food is something else!""Tessa! Keep your voice down!""Why? We're the only ones here."Technically, she was right. Vida and Tessa were the only ones eating breakfast in the dining room. Vida found that 'room' would be a poor way to describe the hall that they were in. They were seated opposite each other at a table so long you could at least sit roughly twenty people and there might even be room for more."Besides," Tessa said as she stuffed herself with what looked like pancakes. "How will you be able to hear me?"Vida giggled. "I guess you're right." She sliced through her eggs and took a bite. It was the best damned egg she ever had. It was kind of nice not having to cook for once.After their arrival, Vida had a brief glimpse of Howard as they were being escorted toward the Palace.She still could not believe she was in Colter's world.Colter's confession about him not being a human and that he came from a world called Howard,
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 58: Heart to Heart
TESSAThe Throne Room, Kingdom of Howard"Tessa --"Tessa cut her off before Vida could even finish her sentence. "I think the prince needs some help out there." She patted Vida on the shoulder. "You got this, girlfriend.""No!" Vida said in a hushed voice. "Don't leave me with the King here.""You'll be fine!" Tessa said. She turned to the King who was regarding her with a sour expression on his face. He must be thinking that the fate of the Kingdom relies on this reckless deity. "Your Kingship, I'll be off. Dismissing myself!" She did a weird curtsy, her hands flailing around like a helicopter.Tessa ran out of the room and out into the courtyard. She got to hand it to the architects of this world because the Palace was built intricately. The pillars are detailed until the last inch. The grounds were huge and one could easily get lost in it. It was like a maze.If you asked her, Tessa did not know why she had the urge to talk to the troubled prince. It was like something or someone
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 59: Intoxicating His Mind Even More
King DyronThe Kingdom of Howard OutskirtsThey stood on the brink of oblivion itself, covered by the darkness. Dyron and all his forces were unseen by anyone, Flora’s passing had rendered them blind. It was as if they had relied on the deity for their protection. Without her, they are as meek and as weak as sheep.His minions and allies were resting underneath a forest that Dyron covered with a black fog, they were already celebrating as if they had won. Some were sharpening their weapons, some were sparring, as if they were warming up. Dyron grinned at this, seeing that they were battle ready. In the corner of his eye, he saw Colter shuddering weakly, conjuring flames that flickered in and out of existence. “Is he having doubts?” Dyron thought, slightly feeling aggravated, “I cannot have that.”Colter’s eyes showed fear, anxiety and horror. His flames were turning from crimson red to its usual red color. The laces of black flames with it died and sputtered out and this made the pr
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 60: The Start of the Attack
King MalikThe Royal Palace, Kingdom of HowardKing Malik stared into his crystal as he saw the legions of fiends entering the borders, it was a mixture of monsters of different sizes and races. They ran through the ground like maniacs wanting to shed blood, their eyes were filled with malice and violence. Above them, advancing quickly as they were in the air, are the hideous vultures. They were flying towards the kingdom at high speeds, tearing through the air with pure hatred in their eyes. Malik saw his citizens that were not around the capital of the kingdom flee for their lives as they were run down and slaughtered like farm animals.“It’s those things I saw in my visions!” Tessa shouted in horror as she saw them from the King’s crystal viewer, “They’re the ones who captured Colter!”Malik’s eyes darkened, he may have had differences with his son, but he was a son of his, nonetheless. “It may be in poor taste to do this” Malik announced to Vida and Tessa, who were trembling at t
