Looking below, she saw what was precluding her escape- a black, bony hand that had sprung up from the cracked ground, covered in patches of a malodorous brown liquid that seriously made her want to barf.So it was just a bony hand that was restricting her? She didn't scoff at this verity but took the issue gravely.This hand... Did it belong to a demon that hadn't fully made its appearance yet, or what King Drake actually summoned was just an arm and nothing else? Whichever was the case, she still had to be careful.With a little more effort, she liberated herself from its hold, but there was no time to feel relieved, as she unexpectedly felt immense pressure above her, which immediately nullified her levitating ability.She dropped to the ground and found to her astonishment that the hand that she'd escaped from had surprisingly duplicated. The two hands elongated and grabbed her feet tightly.‘Jeez! I can’t believe two hands are restraining me!’ she thought as she struggled to get f

Wyzeli-Sindi Landia's imperial treasure building. King Drake had just materialised in the main hall where the most precious treasures of the kingdom were kept. But to his shock, everything in it was gone, except a wooden bench that he was sure didn't belong to the kingdom. He looked at the unrepentant couple, not too far from him, with a face that announced max-level spite."You... how dare you purloin the land's treasures?" he barked, pointing his sceptre at them. "Old king, when you and your rats invaded my homeland, took lots of our treasures, and when we asked you to give them back, did you kindly do so? No! Instead, you caused a military friend of mine to die among the others who were hard-lucked that month. You brought me and my darling mate in here without the need for a jade pass. Of course, I must thank you. If not for your order, I wouldn't be able to collect these treasures and burn down your food storehouses," Phoenix smilingly replied before launching a black mist spher

Lavana materialized in an underground passageway lit by a few randomly placed dim candles where the smell of vampires was particularly strong. She covered her nose and rushed in the direction where she had also managed to distinguish the scent of wolf blood.Reaching the place, she found it was a basement that had a silver door serving as the entrance. She simply shook her head and teleported into the basement where she found Rolandro and the others hung upside down in human form, unclad. Also, they were unconscious and bleeding from the wounds on their wrists that for some reason refused to heal. Their blood flowed into the large white bowls that were placed under them on the floor. Seeing this, she gritted her teeth in anger. So these guys wanted to drain Carmelia's mate and the others' bodies of their blood completely!She immediately levitated and used her claws to cut the ropes that bound their feet. As they fell, she quickly caught them with five of her tails.At that moment,

Light Wiz kingdom.Royal palaceThe king's study.King Vellio Atlantes was seated at his exquisite wooden desk reading an unrolled scroll when his right-hand man, Louis Frost entered his study that was attached to his room hastily."Buddy, what's up?" the king said without looking at the man.Louis stopped to bow his head slightly with his right hand across his chest in salutation, "Greetings, your Majesty,"The king gave him a side eye and focused on the content of the scroll again.Seeing this, the brown-haired man sighed and stood upright before walking to sit in the chair opposite the king. He placed his hands on the table and clasped his fingers with a grave expression deeply etched on his face.King Vellio put down the scroll and questioned, "Louis, how many times have I told you that when we're in private, you aren't to address me with my title?" "That..." the man couldn't find words to say and could only defeatedly sigh, "Sorry, I keep forgetting," was the only excuse he coul

“Mom, Dad, how about you guys at least maintain the rule of self-discipline?” Peter offered.“Are you calling us lawless?” their mom asked with a thin smile.“Beatrix, did you hear me say such a thing?” Peter asked his sister and the latter shook her head.“I asked you a question and you’re asking someone else. Is that how you reply to your mum now?” the queen questioned with a displeased countenance.“How about we just focus on downing the fruits, as many as our guts could possibly take, and then you guys can play your boring game of love in your room after the race?” Peter suggested again with a frown.“You’re like this because you don’t want a family dinner and outing?” the king questioned.Peter shook his head, “No, it’s just…”“Are you actually unhappy because Phoenix might be returning with my big sis soon?” Beatrix asked unexpectedly.Peter wore a look of astonishment, “Why would you think such a thing, Riri? Of course, I want to see them again,”“But you won’t be happy to see
