Semua Bab Elise and the Scorpion King (Magical Journey Series Book 1): Bab 51 - Bab 60

The four teenagers smiled at each other happily. At last, they were able to meet the king, and perhaps he could tell them why they were sucked into this primitive and yet magical place.However, Diana was grateful on the other hand. It was because she was able to contemplate how such a magnificent yet silly red-haired guy meant to her. She could still recall the first time she saw him. She was with her popular friends at the canteen when she was in her sophomore year. She was just a new member of the cheerleading team.Everybody at the canteen seemed to have blond, brown or brunette hair. But when he entered at the canteen, her eyes seemed to be drawn to this red-haired guy. He was grinning so wide while he talked with his fellow football players.From then on, Diana was aware of his presence. But she soon discovered that he talked so loud and that he was sometimes nitpicky. She felt discouraged and was turned off at his behavior. Nevertheless, she could not ign

They all went inside the king’s tent to talk about some strategy. They were gathered standing around the table with fruits, some other types of foods and wine.They all helped themselves while they talked on who takes who.“I shall naturally take the general for myself,” Mazoi said quickly before anyone could make a decision.They all agreed though.“Then I shall take the Cobra King for myself,” King Hor-Aha said.They all agreed, of course, to that.“I shall take on the sorcerer priest,” Zadi volunteered.“No, I don’t think so. I’m sure he’s going to take his revenge on me for taking the life of his twin brother,” Eric said to Zadi.“Zadi, you must not concern yourself. You can be our back up anytime. You just have to conserve your energy after you initiated us all,” Diana said kindly to the pygmy. “And I shall finish that shrieking pries

Elise was busy avoiding the spells of Priestess Nehes cast on her. She threw back spells against the enemy priestess now and then as well but the priestess had some kind of a shield that she did not even blink an eye to avoid any of her spells.Sparks of greens, blues, blacks, reds, yellows and oranges exploded everytime they blocked each other’s magic. Whooshes and crackles in the air could be heard as well, mixed with the clangs, groans, grunts and yells from the soldiers.The desert sand was now soaked with red liquid that the Egyptians shed. **** Diana grinned at Priestess Nofretete as a sign of greeting. She blocked the priestess’ spells cast on her, and she summoned her cudgels again. The witch priestess’ eyes widened in agitation.“You must have some trauma with my cudgels, witch priestess,” Diana mocked amidst the noise of the battle that was going on.Priestess Nofretete scre

The armies seemed not drained after their strengths were used up on full power of more than half a day battle without food or water. It was amazing that they could go on like that for so long. And it only meant one thing. They were driven by each of their dream that was only one goal—to win.Zadi watched the two kings who faced each other as if they were talking only with their minds. The expression of their faces was like of that a warrior who was ready to slay his enemy.“It is like the two kings are not fighting with their hands and body but with their minds,” she commented rather more to herself.The high priestess heard her, and she too turned to look at the two kings who stood face to face. They had been like that for a long time. She gave Zadi a toothless smile but with sad eyes. “The king did not wish more bloodshed but he knew that it would be inevitable with the Cobra King’s attitude.”“You are right. He

“Hey, shrieking priestess!” Diana called out. She was bored at throwing spells at each other that didn’t yield anything but a few scratches here and there, nothing mortal.The witch priestess stopped and looked at her with suspicious eyes.“I’m bored with this stuff. You know something more interesting than casting spells?” Diana added.The witch priestess still eyed her suspiciously. Maybe this young foreigner witch priestess would set a trap for her, she thought.“Hey, are you listening?” Diana’s voice grew louder.“Yes!” the priestess answered through gritted teeth.“Good!”“And what do you want, young foreigner witch priestess? Surely, you are up to no good for me.”Diana grinned. “You’re so silly! I’m just having a friendly conversation. And perhaps we can have a friendly battle without hurting each other.”
