IngramDay by day, Julius consumed more spirit energy like a drug. The voices in his head fed on this energy and showed him how to manage his newfound powers. One day, while testing his abilities, he was suddenly drawn into a blurry vision. His dark birds had found something of interest.It took time for the vision to clear, but it was worth the wait.'Arlen?' He had finally caught a glimpse of his Master. The young man was truly alive. "Show me where he is," Julius demanded. He had hoped for a landmark or signpost but got a different clue - Arlen was threading near a field where the Starbloom flower flourished in their numbers. That peculiar flower happened to be a treasure for one town in Cloverdale. 'Rera.'Malachai: 'What are you going to do now?'"Stop making noise; I need to think," Julius muttered.Malachai: 'Tch! What a swine...'"Aren't we all?" Julius smirked.'Hahaha, he sure told you!... Say, Julius, weren't you going to see your father dearest today about that General?'

Ingram Julius marched into the King's quarters and seated himself before Caesar with a rehearsed grin. "Son, is there a problem?" Caesar, observant of his son's moods, sensed something amiss. Julius's body language had always been a telltale sign. Only one person had ever been able to predict his movements so quickly. 'Like father, like son.' Julius thought to himself. "It's nothing I can't handle, Father." "Alright... General Zariah told me you've stopped training." "Not entirely. I took a break to work on my core. Since I returned, it's been challenging to control my abilities without some backlash." The beta lowered his gaze. "Why didn't you tell her?" Caesar inquired, his concern evident. "It's a sensitive subject, Father. I prefer not to," Julius replied. The King took a moment to address another matter he had been meaning to discuss. "Arlen, is it true that you asked Zariah to step down?" Julius raised his head, his expression blank, bordering on offence. "Father, the wa

"You came for the truth, and I'm being gracious enough to tell you!" Lian Xiu snapped his fingers, unleashing spirit strings that wove around the room, causing tiny particles of rocks to coagulate into moving pictures. The images emulated faces Luca was familiar with. And visions Arlen had long forgotten due to trauma. Lian gave himself space from the visitors. He was about to perform a technique that earned him his reputation as the now-twisted Whispering Jade. He could fish out anyone's past, and dig out people's greatest flaws. Lian Xiu's heart tickled with delight as he was about to unveil a shameful secret that ruined the peace in Slora.Years Back - DamarisA caravan arrived at the King's Castle with treasures and livestock. Scores of people abandoned their duties, dying to get a peek at the strongest alpha of their time. A hunter who made men weak in the knees at the mere sight of her double-edged blade."We're here, my liege." A warrior knelt as the soon-to-be head of the Br

It was raining. Servants covered their heads, skipping past the guards who had to remain at their posts. There would be many sneezing and coughing by nightfall if the downpour did not cease soon. Pandora remained indoors, finding rest in that compulsory leisure time. Zariah did not despise a nap, and Pandora did not deny her that right at that hour.Pandora had rid herself of her leather and silver armour, wearing a long-sleeved blouse coupled with a pair of brown pants. With the way she held her hair back, one could easily mistake her for a handsome man. After staring out of the windows for too long, sketching in a hand-sized book, Pandora fell victim to her thoughts. Things were moving smoothly with Roxanne Beaumont since their date, and she could not deny her intelligence, but Pandora was more consumed by her interest in the Queen.The alpha pulled out of her seat when someone entered her room without permission. She was going to rant, as no one but Zariah would do that, but her wo

"You insolent fool! How dare you play such cheap tricks on my future Queen!" Zariah's eyes blazed with anger, her deep voice echoing through the hall, sending chills to those present.Caesar struggled to regain his composure, humiliated by his actions. His face turned crimson, and his confidence waned."It's alright, Zariah. It was an accident," Pandora stood tall, attempting to diffuse the tension in the room. She scanned the crowd for Roxanne but realized she had already left."No, Your Majesty, please permit me to teach this idiot a lesson," Zariah insisted, her determination unwavering. But Pandora dissuaded her from doing so.With all eyes on him, Caesar found himself speechless and defeated. He made a hasty retreat, his dignity in tatters.Later, after the banquet, Caesar, determined to make amends, sought out Pandora. He was met with resistance from the guards at the door, but with their leader's intervention, they let him through.Caesar found Pandora without her heavy armour
