“Move. I don’t have the patience to deal with you today,” Kal ordered moving forward to step past Allen, determined to no longer pay him any more attention, only to feel the sharp movements of the wind to his left side, one that instantly made him dart blink away the next second.“You’re fast,” Allen commented, flinging the sword from side to side in such a way that showed that he had only just swung it in Kal’s direction and was prepared to finish what he started.“Fight me…Prince Kal,” Allen said in a slightly commanding tone, one that did nothing but grate on Kal’s nerves as he stared at the proud night in front of him who dared to get in a fighting position.It was obvious to even Kal, that the last thing he should do was injure Allen, Hurai’s knight especially after Rena just died. A fact that Kal was sure that Allen was aware of.With a fierce determination in his eyes, Allen darted forward swinging his sword strongly at Kal with all his might, not at all holding back a single bi

Unknown to anyone but his closest council members, he had contacted the kingdom of Elfina for an alliance, one that he was willing to stand by, if it meant that they could destroy the kingdom of Blodinek, once and for all. He knew he made a mistake by allying himself with his strongest enemy, one that spurred him to attack another kingdom and dragged them into a war he never wanted.The more he investigated the events that happened at the arena, the more certain he was that King Locan had more to do with it than he let on.“I just need to ensure that the witches don’t betray me and all should be fine,” King Horansi thought, going back to read the papers in front of him, while thinking of his next session with Darun which was tonight.He couldn’t wait until after the ceremony which would be too busy for him to meet him, considering the fact that he felt more pent up than ever, even when he continued to visit Mayory, Hurai, and Fera’s mother who everyone thought was dead.Horansi contin

Even her swordsmanship was still pretty basic, Hurai thought to herself, one that put a sad expression on her face.“Let's talk about the work for today,” Sheila finally spoke again, sending an even more intense glare at Xena almost like she was warning her not to sprout any more nonsense.Xena and Hurai understood that it wasn’t like Sheila didn't want to talk about Rena but more like she wanted to distract herself with work, considering that even with how grumpy she was with her, Sheila was the closest person to her.“We might as well begin,” Hurai sighed already seeing how stressful and tiring the rest of the day was going to be.“Good we’ll start with a herbal bath,” Sheila said not surprised to already see Hurai shaking her head from side to side.“I’ve already taken my bath,“You’ll be having three other baths, Princess Hurai,” Sheila replied with a soft smile on her face. The determined look in her eyes was clear for all to see.“The earlier we start the faster we can finish,” X

Of course, he was aware of all that had happened a minute ago and he was well aware of most things that went on in the princess's room but like the loyal guard that he was, he knew it was none of his business.Anything apart from protecting her wasn’t something he should concern himself with, Dari thought while staring at Allen with a slight tint of disapproval in his eyes.He couldn’t help but wonder why Allen couldn’t also do that as he watched him grit his teeth in anger, and walk towards him to stand beside him in silence, even if he could feel the boiling anger he felt coming off him in waves. Fera on the other hand stared at her reflection in the mirror, satisfied at the blood-red gown she wore since it matched the small red crown that had been fixed to her head.It was taboo for anyone to wear a crown where the king was, especially since he would be wearing his own, but Fera had specially gotten permission from Horansi himself.Stating the fact that she needed it, if she was go

The only person who he cared about was Darun and he would be damned if someone were to hurt him.Unsurprisingly, Kal had the exact same thoughts towards Hurai, as he fixed his eyes firmly on her own tub.He had also made some preparations and arranged for his own men to also stay close by including Sir Mallum who was still disguised as one of King Horansi’s head of shadow guards.His eyes glanced at every corner of the rook to ensure that the second something happened, he would know about it.Every inch of the hall was calm and a few more minutes passed with Darun, Fera, and Hurai, submerged entirely in the tub from their head to their toes, leaving only their noses poking out, with enough space for them to breathe.However just when everything seemed to be completely calm, and everyone was already expecting the ceremony to go without a hitch, considering the fact that Darun, Hurai, and Fera had been submerged in their respective tubs for a while, with only the tip of their noses peeki
