In the palace garden, Rion, Trish, and Anwen sat together while enjoying dessert.
“What?” Anwen and Trish were shocked to hear of Rion’s plans to retire and leave Panthera.
“Are you serious, Your Majesty?” Trish asked hurriedly. “What’s wrong? Why so sudden?”
“It’s not sudden. I’ve been thinking about this for a long time.”
“Then what about Panthera?”
“There is you.” Rion casually said it as though it wasn’t something serious, then cut the cake in front of him before eating it in delight.
“What?” His eyebrows raised a little upon noticing the sharp gaze from Anwen and Trish. The two of them couldn’t believe what the king had just said.
“Your Majesty, your joke isn’t funny at all,” Trish said flatly.
“This isn’t a joke.” Rion took a deep breath and then looked up at the sky.
“Odette!” Hans finally came. He quickly approached Odette, who was struggling to get away from one of the firefighters who were holding her and preventing her from getting closer to the flames blazing the house.“Senior, help Bee! BEEE!” Odette let out a hoarse cry.Then Hans was stunned to see Bee being carried out by the firefighter. “Bee?”“Baby, Honey.” Odette immediately dragged her wobbling feet to approach the child, carefully taking him from the firefighter. “It’s okay, Honey. Mom is here. Mom is here.” She rubbed Bee’s back and kissed him as she hugged him so tightly. It wasn’t long before Bee suddenly lost consciousness.“B-Bee? Bee!”“Let’s take him to the hospital!”Odette and Hans rushed into the car and took Bee to the hospital. Arriving at the hospital, Bee was handled by the doctor immediately.“Bee…
“Doctor Ody.”“Mia?”Mia smiled and sat beside Odette.“I know you’re feeling scared right now, but we can definitely handle it properly,” Mia said reassuringly.“You’re not afraid of him?”“When Bee was born, and I saw him for the first time, I cried because I remembered when Alvin was born. At that time, I didn’t want to see his face because I hated his father so much. Every time I remembered that, my heart hurt, and I felt bad for having such a thought. Alvin doesn’t know anything, so why should he be hated?”“Mia...”“Bee doesn’t know anything either. He’s a sweet child with a heart as pure as an angel. Why should I be afraid of him?” Mia smiled, then looked at the sky. “Since my parents died, I don’t have anyone anymore. People who should be called family actually treat me like trash. Perhaps even tr
Dark. Cold. Hunger. Pain.That's how the beautiful woman in the red dress who sat in the corner of the cell felt. Her eyes were closed, and her hands were clenched – she was praying.TAP TAP TAPThere was the sound of approaching footsteps.Hearing that, she smiled."Finally, you came, Rion." Her eyes opened. She gazed calmly at the man standing outside the prison cell. The beautiful woman rose from the floor and walked over to the man. For five seconds, her clear brown eyes met with those hazel eyes that threw her a piercing gaze. She smiled and spoke with her sweet voice. "Have you regretted what you did? It's okay, I forgive you."She smiled widely, her eyes sparkling. However, those two beautiful things disappeared in an instant when she heard him speak coldly."Lucas has been executed. Tomorrow is your turn."Her eyes widened, and her bones seemed to tremble at the man's shocking words."W-what…? Y-you really did it…? Why?" Her voice trembled. Tears welled up in her eyes. Her che
In the background of the green hills, an area used for cemeteries, a woman with waist-length brown hair was running while carrying a bouquet of roses. The white coat she wore made her look like a swan. Beautiful, but not so beautiful as to be able to make the flowers green with envy.Bump!"Oh, I'm sorry." Odette accidentally bumped into someone, causing the bouquet of roses she was carrying to fall to the ground. Because she was in such a hurry, she didn't pay attention to who she bumped into.Today was the anniversary of her mother's death. At first, she planned to visit her mother's grave but was told that one of her patients had run away. She then went down the hill, got into the car, and raced the vehicle like the devil.Many times she almost hit other motorists and pedestrians. Her nefarious behavior in driving had really put the grim reaper in a dilemma. It was not her time to be brought to the underworld yet, but her driving was alarming.After a few kilometers
The screams of thousands of people broke the silence of the night as the two armies charged at each other.This was a war where human lives fell like dry leaves in autumn.The number of troops in black was far fewer, but they were able to fight back the troops in red. In the middle of the crowd, a man with long grey hair from the black camp seemed to dominate.He stepped into the crowd of red troops and slashed at his opponents like a frenzied threshing machine. He was Arion D. Panther, the king of Panthera, the demon slayer.Time went on, and victims continued to fall from both sides. Corpses and body parts strewed about. The rancid smell of spilt blood wafted when the wind blew.STABSTABSLASHRion had just overthrown three soldiers in a row. But after the attack, he suddenly fell silent. Of course, the opportunity was immediately taken advantage of by the enemy.An archer from the enemy's side took aim at him. However, before he could shoot an arr
Rion fell to his knees with both hands resting on the ground. A few seconds after the needle struck his shoulder, he felt stuffy, he felt stuffy. His heart was pounding, and his body temperature rose drastically as if a fire was burning him from within.By the second, his condition was getting worse, as he started to sweat, his ears were ringing, and his vision was blurry.Ten meters from him, from behind a tree, a purple-eyed girl was watching."Yeah!! It worked!" She smiled triumphantly. "I'm sorry Big Brother, it would feel a little bad, but all of this is for my future and the future of the Panthera Kingdom.""Princess Anwen?""Huh?" The girl's eyes and mouth widened when she heard a voice from behind. She pressed her lips when she saw the king's wild dog appear behind her. "Tri-Trishy? You? Hi, how are you? Hehe."Anwen smiled awkwardly and started to get nervous when Trish looked at her appearance in a Panthera soldier's uniform. He saw a vial and a small needle-thrower device s
Odette woke up from her stupor and found herself in a river in the forest.She was quite surprised that she was still alive and her limbs were still intact. She didn't suffer any serious injuries but only a few abrasions.She was relieved. At first, she thought that she had been eaten by a crocodile but apparently not. Pfew…Then what did she see when she almost lost consciousness? The surrounding water was red and shining?She inhaled deeply, then exhaled slowly. What she saw was definitely just a hallucination. The girl straightened her clothes, then stood up and looked around. In front of her was a river, and behind her were trees.Where was she?Aish, she must have been stranded very far away. She knew for sure that there were no forests around her town.After Odette was silent for a while and regained her composure, she felt better. She decided to leave the place. If she drifted all the way here, then she could definitely find her way back to where she came from."Arrgh!"Odette
Odette had given up hope to fight back! Tears started to leak out from the corner of her eyes as she lost hope that she would get out of there as a virgin. Who cared if the man was handsome or not? This was against her will! She started crying.Rion, who was already preparing to carry out the final execution, suddenly froze when he saw tears flowing from the corners of the women's two eyes. He immediately pictured Rose's eyes crying when he looked at her from behind the bars of the cell.Rion was stunned. He quickly pushed himself away from her and stepped back, as if he had just received a no-parking warning from Rose. With staggered steps, he continued to walk backward until he accidentally fell into the estuary behind him.GULP GULP GULP.The cold sensation of the estuary extinguished the fire within him and removed all the aphrodisiac effects he was feeling.Meanwhile, Odette had taken a seat on the ground. She panted very hard. Her whole body was shaking and she felt numb. She wa
