Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 32 - The Target
Chapter 32Zandrus' echelons surrounded the lone Greyson. I was devastated, I didn’t know what I was most supposed to do."Corin!"The ground where Corinthians rises higher, until it is higher than mine. I stood up and pointed my arrows at Zandrus. And then I let go of my arrow. Simultaneously with the flight of the arrow towards Zandrus I was throwing a dagger at his head. He seemed confused and surprised when I appeared."Argh f*ck!" he screamed and collapsed.I hit his hands, but he dodged my dagger and hit his forehead."Corinthians!" Greyson shouted.Everyone slowed down, I ran to the raised ground where Corinthians was because it was about to fall. I jumped with all my strength from the big stones."Corin jump, I'm going to catch you!" I shout. Before the floating ground on which she was lying collapsed, she jumped. Even though we were both struggling I jumped up and snatched Corinthians into the air. The ground collapsed at the same time as Zandrus fell into the water. Corinth

Chapter 33My hair stood on end when I heard that. Fear gripped me, I was Zandrus' target! For real? I was stunned for a bit. If I am not in a critical situation I'd stood in shock. However, due to my situation and triggered survival instincts, I ran further.Why would Zandrus target me? I sped up my running even more. Even though I almost tripped, I just went straight to get away. No matter how hard, no matter how tired I was getting, I kept running away for my dear life."You can't go any further, the best thing is to stop!" Zandrus shouted, but I didn't listen and kept running. "Stop being stubborn! You're just tiring yourself.""Zavan..." I whispered into the air, hoping he would come and save me from Zandrus' hands. I shut my eyes for a close second to clear my vision, then I kept going."STOP!" Zandrus shouted again.I'm so tired, I'm out of breath. I can't run anymore, even if I keep running they will still catch me.So I stopped running."Zavan," I whispered into the air again
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 34 - The Seer
Chapter 34"Where— why are you stopping? Walk!" Zandrus yelled.I was surprised by him, so I didn't do anything but go straight."I'm sorry, but I really don't see a beryl." I said."Speak when you see the beryl, or I will kill this man in front of you!"I clenched my fist; I was still angry with this prince. He was so different from Zavan, so different!"Blue-green," I whispered.Gemstones are not seen casually, if not in water, in this cave, maybe even underground."Is there a volcano in the Euphrates?""What do you mean?" Zandrus asked."Beryllium is found in the mineral bertrandite, which in recent years has become a major ore of this element. Bertrandite is found in certain volcanic rocks derived from granite. So there is a big possibility that we can find beryl in a volcanic area."Zandrus was amazed at what I said. He let go of Marcus and came to me. Marcus fell on the dead leaves, but the poor people with him immediately supported him."You're a good girl; right now we're goin

Chapter 35Five seconds before he did that, I knew he was going to do that, so my avoidance was faster than everyone thought."Verulia!" Marcus shouted.I thought of nothing else but to get the beryl. But before I could reach it, the ground I was running on cracked.It was Zandrus!I jumped over the big rocks to enter the cave where the beryl was. When I turned to my right, Zandrus was already there, lifting a part of the land towards me."Oh sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!" I screamed as I got up, and it fell on my seat.But before it finally hit me, it broke into the air. I turned my back, and there was Marcus! He used the bow and arrow of an echelon to crash Zandrus' attack on me.I mouthed, "Thanks."I then followed Zandrus into the cave. He looked around, and that's when I was once again given hope of winning this quest. He can't see clearly inside the semi-dark cave; only I can."Good. You are really good; you know how to play games well." Said Zandrus and applauded."I don't play games, Prin
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 36 - Sad Kiss
Chapter 36Both Marcus and I are sitting under a thick tree, gasping for breath due to tiredness. We're both exhausted and barely catching our breath. It seems like we're the only ones breathing away the dust, but none of us has the will to let go of the last breath we want to take. We're both panting and sucking air for our lives, and our presences strongly bonded together are enough to strengthen the will to fight until we survive.Marcus and I are going to survive in this game. We are going back to District 1 to see Laura. She's waiting for us, for Marcus. I can't let Laura down. If Marcus promised to bring me home alive, I also promise to bring him home alive. We will return to Laura. As long as we have air to breathe, we will not give up.As the seconds and minutes passed, I noticed that Marcus was constantly gasping for air, as if he were struggling to breathe. He's suffering more than I do. He's panting harder than I am. He's asking for another breath. It seems like a prayer, a

Chapter 37He cut it off and smiled."I'm sorry, Verulia; that won't happen again. I promised your grandmother that I would do that for you every day. I'll take care of you; I won't leave you. B-but it seems I can't keep that; I'll just watch you grow up while happily forming a family." He said as the pain appeared on his face.I panicked."D*mn, stop this, Marcus! Don't tease me like this; what are you doing? STOP THIS! Please, please, stop this!" Begging, I hugged him tightly and shook him."I'm begging you, yeah? Don't do this. Have mercy on my agonizing heart, please..." I begged."Promise me, promise you'll get out of here alive." He said and fondled my face gently. "I want you to hear it; you can go home. You can get out of here alive." He said tearfully.My heart completely broke under the weight of my feelings. Why is it like this?"Marcus...""Please, promise me."I nodded and hugged him, "Yes, Marcus, we will get home here alive. We will get home!" I cried.This is difficult
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 38 - Trapped
Chapter 38The time was ticking too fast. And my time with Marcus was very short. Even when we were young, until we grew up, our time was really short. I couldn't think clearly about this moment; the energetic Marcus I knew was closing his eyes while being lifeless. But, like I promised him, I will get out of here alive. I'm going home to the first district, but I don't know what to do with my dear friend.Am I going to leave him? Will I have someone to fall back on when I ask the echelons for help?A sad part of our story was that we never had the chance to laugh together. I never had the chance to love him back the way he loved me, because right now at this moment I think my heart is already owned by someone, and I know that we'll never work out.I have so many "what ifs," but I ended up running away from the spring. The sound of Zandrus' group is what scares me. I don't know if I'm just paranoid, but they're getting closer to us, to me. That's why I hid Marcus in a pit and left him
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 39 - Danger
Chapter 39 I could hear the fast beating of my heart as well as my strong and slow breathing. I opened my eyes, but I can't move. I watched the dark surroundings. I knew it was evening already; the stars are shining in the sky, and the moonlight is dazzling. It was supposed to be beautiful scenery, but it wasn't.My body was tied to a big tree while I was sitting. And the curious face of the guard who threatened me in the labyrinth appeared in front of me. He was building a fire, and it looked like he noticed that I was awake because he turned to me and grinned."What the f*ck is a f*cking guard doing in here?" I insulted him and curled my lips. "A traitor perhaps?" I added. He looked like he was insulted by what I said; he clenched his fist and his jaw moved in anger.He is a traitor. He had a plan—a dark and evil plan."Shut up," he said, and he stood in front of me."I can't even move; you even tied me up; are you that scared of me?" I said and grinned.I saw him smirking, and he
