"We also have a legend about your deeds... more like it was about the portal. No one knew it existed beside a few nobles and the Rayginaz family," I explained.
"This is strange! I do not dare show off. The portal indeed exists, and I am keeping it at bay. However, it was a matter that I had to do in exchange for debt. We do not dare to blend with people, and also, we do not dare to take a human bride. It is already odd for me that you exist. From your words, that means I took a human as a friend and another human as a bride. It will shorten our lives if we do so."
"In every generation of the Carmander royal family, there was a human bride. As to strengthen the bond between humans and vampires."
"Then that means you are dhampirs. Vampires have a long lifespan, we like living in isolation, and we cannot stand humans. I am already doing my best to coexist with them."
"As I thought. I found it already strange that the royals do not live as normal vampires," s
"Now, I want you to get out of here, and I hope I would never see your faces again," Barbara pointed at the back door and urged us to go. I stopped right in front of the door after Edward left, waiting for me outside."Is it really alright to go like that? I can help. I know I can do it.""You were the only one who was called traveller, you know. You may not know who you are, neither I do. However, you must be someone who had already seen enough and chose to experience the same thing all over again. Please stay out of it. This is our battle. Zadimus must have already knocked your friend. Take him and go. We will take care of these things. Since you exist, our battle will be successful."She pushed me outside and closed the door behind us. I did not know what to do. Suddenly, an idea came to my mind. We can help them kill the demons that will emerge from the portal using Xavier and his pack. I looked at Edward briefly and ran to the hot spring. I was confident I
I woke up in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by flax plants. The sky was dark; it was already night. I was confused because I thought that I was going to die. I was sentenced to death, not because I wanted to, but I took the blame instead of my best friend. I was a soldier; I was a woman soldier. I sacrificed myself because I thought of the great cause. My best friend was planning for creating a rebellion; the empire of Satia is currently at a crisis because of the emperor. He isn’t good enough for the throne. I must help him in his cause, but what am I doing here? Laying down in the middle of nowhere.I get up and scan my surrounding; I am not satisfied with knowing nothing. I search for my clothes and find a letter in my pocket. I open it. I know this handwriting, it’s from him without any doubt, my best friend.«I hope that you are well, best friend. Thank you for sacrificing yoursel
I am tired; I’ll stop to catch my breath. Water is rarer these days; the rain doesn’t drop very often. I need to keep looking for a stable source of water. I want to drink so bad, but I’ll save it for later.Lost in my thoughts, I fell asleep.My dream, it feels so real. It seems I am in a forest; there are a lot of trees around me, they are so tall, they disappear in a long line into the sky, so old, I say that they are ancient like they express a time where things were free. The sun shows through its shining ray the old outer bark in a magnificent way; it’s so patterned, they stretch up, as if so proud to stand there under the sun in any weather.This greenwood seems just undisturbed. Suddenly I close my eyes and imagine the fallen leaves as from a dream, each one with a great past, if they could talk, they would narrate the stories of ancient civilisations, differe
I noticed another thing doing the second test; the infected can’t hear well; that’s why we usually don’t notice them in wildness. They have a short range of reacting when hearing others moving. That’s why we call them weak, a knock into their head will take them out.That’s all I could find near my living place. Damien chose a perfect place for me to live in. Really, I am glad that he thought of it before hand. I know that there are more out there, I remember that I was on a mission with Damien, apparently, there were some survivors from an expedition awaiting for help, they were attacked by a somewhat different creature than the madmen, they were completely different; they had claws, a body more violet than usual and stronger.«You are back, how about playing cards, it was in one of the boxes that you made.»«No, I don’
« Should I do like this or like this? » I asked swaying my sword in different directions.« No, you are still breathing chaotically, do you want to make me go insane? Listen go like this pouffe then do this paf, in the end, do a pouch. »« Your explanation cramps my conversation with you; you should take a formation in teaching. There are two possibilities here, you are joking, or you are trying to joke because I don’t see any other alternative. »«Hahahaha, you are funny. Alright, I don’t want to make you worse, first, try to control your breathing style. Breathe until you don’t have any place for the air then exhale everything. Do it while training, because I want you to be more endurant in a battle, you have great abilities for a human, you are like an unpolished gem that I am tryin
In the orphanage, they did some tests to you to see if you can become a worthy warrior to serve to protect the country. Being at the bottom, you see every worse suffering possible; Beggars, homeless ones, hard-working ones but fate didn't give them enough credit. In our case, there are even nobles who buy children as their toy slaves. Suffocating, I am suffocating. I was an empty shell.«if you do well, I will not make you sit near the fire.»I heard this every time they wanted me to read the ancient language. It’s a language that I knew how to read just like that. I’ve never learnt it. My mother always said to keep it a secret, not to show anyone that I can read the ancient languages. I didn’t listen to her warning and wanted to be praised like everyone, but I was wrong. Instead, they would make me work day and night to translate what they want.&nb
My head spun for a moment, then got better. This situation happened more frequently lately. My body got paralysed, and my head hurt. I felt like my heart was going to stop. Am I sick? I don’t want to. I am not allowed to; if I fell sick, I’d die because I don’t know anything about medicine. I want to stay healthy until I die.«What are you going to do now?» he asked.«I thought of lazying around.»« Then shall we play cards? »«There is no question, because of your cheats, I lost all my belongings to you. I don’t have anything else to put at stake.»«You have your life.»« Are you kidding me? I already feel bad enough about the things that I lost. I don’t want to become
I don’t think that we’re going to arrive soon. The sun is already going down. I need to go back to the capital fast, who knows that greedy mother-in-law would do. Trying to get rid of me by sending me to the mountain to check on the human territory and sending assassins to my back to kill me, I wasn’t expecting her to be so lame.I am never going to follow her commands anymore; shereally bewitched my father to put me in a rough position. That bastard, I am never going to forgive him. To follow her leads to condemning me to the outside world. To me, his son, who was born to his true mate.« Alpha, what are you thinking about? We need to install a camping site, » said Rasha.«I agree. We’ll stay the night here. Maya cast a protective barrier here.»Listening to the crunches of the dead leaves under my boots, I rush
