Chapter 4

Author: Second Blossom
Kael's face twisted with rage upon seeing the state I was in, his forehead veins popping. "Who's responsible for this? Who did this?! I gave explicit orders to bring you here unharmed."

Raven's hand flicked, and three ice spears shot into the thigh of the Demons' commander. "Had we not shown up when we did, what exactly were you planning? You've really got some guts!"

The commander and his cronies all fell to their knees, quaking with fear.

"This... They're from the Celestial Realm! I was see

  • Twin Blossoms in Darkness   Chapter 7

    A millennium passed before we saw each other again.Kael had become the Dark Lord, and Raven had become the Demon King. Together, they had the Celestial Realm on the run.By then, Serena and I had married Rein and Calder. With our loyalties divided, we seldom met, keeping our old fondness buried deep inside, until now.I reached out, and he leaned in close. "Don't worry, we won't be parted again, and I won't go easy on them."In the dungeon, I found Serena, and to my surprise, Raven was with her.Rein spotted me, scrambled to his feet, and banged on the magical barrier, calling out, "Elaya! Elaya! You've finally come to see me."Calder's voice echoed across the room. "Elaya, please talk some sense into Serena. She's actually considering staying in this demon-infested place and divorcing me. Did she take a blow to the head or something?"I could not help but chuckle at his words.He would rather chalk it up to an injury than face the fact that we just did not love them anymore.

    "Mentor Rein, please...don't do this to me..."Her plea was cut short, and she was shoved, her arms the only thing keeping her from falling. Her face was ashen with fear.Her true, hideous nature was then laid bare for all to see."Rein, Calder, do what you want to me. Elaya and Serena will never forgive you! Never!"No sooner had the words left her mouth than she wished she could take them back. She tried to scramble upward, but their boots pinned her hands down."Argh! I was wrong! I shouldn't have said that! Please, I'm begging you, let me up, will you?"I'll be your servant, a slave to you, to Elaya, and to Serena, alright? I just don't want to be banished to the Beast Realm!"Her begging was in vain. Rein pressed down harder, squatting slowly as he said, "Begging me won't help you. The High King of Heaven has spoken. You think you can run from that?""But I'm your student! You promised my father you'd look after me!"Rein looked down, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.

    With a gesture, the Mirror of Fate materialized.The scene played out, showing Lila trailing Rein and Calder as they left the Southern Gate, all sneaky-like.The truth hit everyone like a thunderclap, and Lila nearly collapsed, her legs turning to jelly."Mentor Rein, I was just worried about you. That was why I followed you. You've got to believe me."Rein struggled to clear his head, his throat tightening as the image of me, barely clinging to life, flashed through his mind.Calder was in disbelief, his eyes scanning the scene again and again. "It was one thing to follow us, but why on earth would you smear Elaya's and Serena's names?"She lowered her head, her voice a faint murmur as she said, "I...I was scared out of my wits, and to survive, I had to play this card."She clutched at Rein's cloak. "Mentor Rein, I was really scared, but I swear I meant no harm."A fellow mage could not bear to watch and interjected with a sneer, saying, "Meant no harm? What do you consider ha

"Had we not shown up when we did, what exactly were you planning? You've really got some guts!"The commander and his cronies all fell to their knees, quaking with fear."This... They're from the Celestial Realm! I was seeking revenge for us!"He clearly did not grasp what had set Kael and Raven off, and he proudly presented the lotus he had violently removed, along with the Life Core."Dark Lord, take a look at this! Haven't you always said that Elaya's lotus flower was beyond comparison? The moment I seized her, I took the lotus right off her!"And this Life Core… The Demon King has been struggling to advance, hasn't he? With this Life Core, he's bound to succeed."He was oblivious to the lethal fury in the

    However, in the next instant, Lila's resolve faltered, and the dagger slipped from her trembling hand.As they reached for the weapon, Rein spoke up with urgency, "You can have Elaya and Serena, but let Lila go!""Yes, let Lila go!" Calder chimed in.In their desperation to save Lila, they were willing to overlook the grand scheme of things.The elders were beside themselves, trying desperately to intervene. "This is madness! Giving the Demons the Twin Flowers of Chaos is akin to surrendering our very life force into their hands!"And besides, the Twin Flowers were nurtured by the High King of Heaven himself. They're practically his daughters. How can you just abandon them for someone else?"Their pleas fell on deaf ears.Rein faced the Demons' commander squarely. "Give us Lila, and you can take those two. Deal?""Agreed, or we'd all go down together.""Fine, but don't think it's because I fear you. I just need to wrap this up quickly," the Demons' commander said.Before the

    Rein's face twisted with conflict at the demand.Lila sobbed and said, "Elaya, why did you lie and say my mentor was gravely wounded? I rushed here because of you. If it weren't for you, Mentor Rein and Mentor Calder wouldn't be suffering like this."Rein stared at me in disbelief. "It was you? You lured Lila here? Do you despise her so much that you'd send her to her death?"The words had hurt me over and over again, but their baseless accusations still cut deep."We've been at war for three days and nights, fighting for our lives. How could we possibly have time to trick her into coming?"My feeble attempt at an explanation was met with Rein's skeptical eyes. It was clear he was not buying it.I let out a weary chuckle, shaking my head. "Yeah, right. Like you'd ever believe me."Calder gave a derisive snort and turned to my sister. "Everyone knows you two are always up to some drama. Serena, are you in on this, too? If you've messed with Lila, I swear I'll leave you.""Do wha
