"Y-Your majesty. T-The wolf... it just talked." Cyril said with bewilderment. "After everything I have witnessed these past few days, I do not know why I am still surprised with this." I said while unsheathing my sword from its scarab. "Sirens, dragons, and now this... talking wolves." "Who are you calling talking wolves, Spartan scum?!" A grey wolf snarled ferociously at us. "We are proud lycans. Never associate us with animals." "Lycans?" I said out loud. ’That name sounds familiar.’ I thought. "Hush your mouth Grey." The black majestic one which is the biggest of them snarled at the gray one. It whimpered down after hearing the black lycan’s words. "You, the one with black hair. Are you the leader of these Spartan humans?" "Yes, I am." I replied without letting my guard down. I can feel the intense pressure coming from the black one.If these were normal wolves, then the black one who is the biggest must be their leader, the Alpha. All the others are rallying behind him a
The black lycan stopped attacking and turned towards me. His eyes was on me, and I felt as if his eyes were boring into my soul. Chills ran down my spine. ’These beasts are not something to look down on.’ I thought as I felt the goosebumps all over my body.I have gone into battle with many enemies. I can say that I am a veteran in the battlefield. But recently, we have been crossing paths with opponents that we only read in ancient books. These creatures have been in hiding since ancient times, but for some reason we have been encountering them even if we do not want to. ’Are these only coincidences, or is this fate.’ I thought to myself. ’The reincarnation of the almighty One is now undergoing. Are these creatures feeling the presence of the return of the almighty One?’ This is one of my hypothesis. "You are quite brave, spartan leader." The black lycan said with a menacing tone.The black lycan walked towards me slowly with its head held high, as if showing his dominance. I can
I was feeling elated and actually enjoying this fight. I have never thought I would feel this way in battle, this was the first time I was actually enjoying a fight. Mulan was running swiftly in a zigzag line. I conjure more fire balls to chase after him, leaving him without any time to attack. But to my surprise, he was able to get a fallen tree trunk that was in his way and hurled it towards me. I used my fire magic to push me away from where I was standing to evade the huge tree trunk.When I landed on my feet, I was surprised that Mulan was in mid air, jumping on top of me. I was able to lift my sword up, just in time before his jaws landed on my head. "Ah. ." I cursed, seeing that I am in a difficult situation.Luckily my fire armor was still in effect, because his claws were trying to bore its way in my legs and stomach. I heightened the intensity of my fire armor, setting my whole body ablaze. Mulan was enduring my flames a while ago, but now he cannot endure any longer and
"I like you Spartan. This is a first." Mulan smirked, with his perfectly sharp teeth bared. "I am looking forward to your future. I am sure you will not disappoint me."The black lycan alpha walked towards me slowly, smoke started to engulf his body from the ground up. Once the smoke cleared, what I saw was a man with long black wavy hair. He had a huge build with big lean muscles. I knew how bulk his body was because he was naked after his transformation. Even with his human form, he was taller than me in height. "I think it would be better to talk with this form, if that is okay?" Mulan said.I looked away now that he was standing right before me. It was a little awkward to see someone naked from head to toe, let alone someone like Mulan that is not feeling embarrassed and in turn feels so proud brandishing his naked body. I also cannot undo seeing his huge thing, hanging around like that. "Well, if it is okay... can you cover your body at least?" I said with an awkward voice and
Mulan led the way inside the woods. We were going further in, away from the cliff overlooking the sea. We have searched a wide area from noon till sundown, but the ruins go further into the forest. If we blindly searched for the entrance by ourselves, I am afraid that we would have spent days and precious time. ’It was a good call to have a truce with the lycans.’ I thought. "The ruins are quite big." Mulan said, starting a conversation. "As I recall, this ruins was once a palace. It is said that this was a gift of the first ruler to his wife." "I see." I replied. "It is a shame that this palace deteriorated like this." "The exterior might be in ruins, but the interiors are at least preserved by us. Well, with a little bit of magic that remained within the palace." Mulan said. "You can still see the palace’s interior in it’s full splendor. Hahaha." He laughed out heartily. "It looks like a good lair for you lycans." I said with a smile. "Is that why you were ready to fight us for
The door looked like any other ordinary door. It was made of hard wood, with wooden frames. In a normal human eye, they would only see a door that leads inside a room. The only problem is, no one can open the door. They would only think that it was locked inside. But for us Spartans that were gifted with magic, we are sensitive to magic depending on one’s high magic perception.In my eyes, I can see a thin veil like curtain cloaking the door. It was enveloping the door like a protective barrier or shield. "Have you tried to break open this door in the past?" I asked Mulan. "So many times." Mulan replied with a shrug of his shoulder. "Here, let me demonstrate." He slowly approached the door with his hand to touch it. *CRACKLE*I heard something when Mulan retracted his hand swiftly. "Well, this happens after I simply touch it." Mulan showed me his slightly burned hand. "With just a slight touch, something like this happened." I am now sure for a fact that this room was cloaked wit
The inside of the room was pitch black, it was as if my eyes were closed. The temperature as well was cold. It felt like I entered a room of complete nothingness.I started a small fire burning on the top of my palms to make light. I tried moving it from left to right, trying to figure out how big this room was. But unfortunately, I was not able to see anything. No furnitures, no walls, and not even a ceiling. It was a if I was never entered a room, it felt as if I was not even inside a room in the first place. I walked, trying to assess my surroundings. "Looking around, it feels like I was transported into a different space after entering the room." I said. I walked aimlessly with no direction in particular. After some time of walking, I made a conclusion that this space seemed to be endless. Therefore, even if I walked aimlessly it will not take me anywhere. I stopped walking and was deep in thought. "I will just tire out if I walk even further. Is this some kind of test, what sh
The baby that was wrapped carefully in fine cloth and was being cradled by the midwife, had a crown of silver hair and shining silver eyes. The babe’s expression was so peaceful, as if you would not want to make any noise to startle him. "W-What kind of sorcery is this?!" The male attendant that was beside the emperor freaked out. "How can the concubine birth such an... an albino?!"Everyone inside the courtyard heard the male attendant’s words. They gasp after hearing that an albino was birthed by the emperor’s concubine. The people from Eden’s neighboring country Kabul had olive brown skin and black curly hair, other hair colors were unheard of. With a country that never had seen other hair colors except for black, they will think ill thoughts about the baby. "H-How dare you..." A weak voice was heard from inside the birthing quarter. A beautiful woman who looked like in her early twenties came out with a maid helping her. She had silky black hair and porcelain white skin, but h
