The chirping of the birds woke Erella up. She stretched her arms while yawning. Then she rubbed her eyes gently. After that, she got up from her bed and went to the window. She looked outside and she saw the golden rays of the sun that gave a bright color to the clouds and the grounds of the Von Heinlein estate. She felt refreshed just looking at the sunrise outside her window. Erella wanted to stare at its beauty more but a sudden knock startled her.
"Milady?" Merry called her name which means she was asking permission to enter her bedroom.
"Come in, Merry," Erella said.
After she gave her approval, Merry came into her room with a group of maids with her. Erella looked at them in confusion. She was wondering why Merry brought several maids with her.
"Merry, what's going on?" Erella asked her but Merry didn't answer her. Instead, Merry hurriedly gave orders to
Thank you for reading! Merry Christmas to you all! :)
His majesty and her majesty walked towards their royal seat first before the two princes followed them to their royal seats too. Upon sitting on their royal seat, Prince Maverick checked the young ladies in the hall right away, especially the ten-year-old young ladies with blonde hair. His eyes were busy looking for the little angel he saw in the forest but he couldn't find her. He also told the attendant to look for the girl he described. But even the attendant couldn't find the girl he was looking for.'Maybe she didn't go because she has no finances to buy for her dress and to pay for her carriage to come here.' Maverick thought-feeling disappointed. All of a sudden, he lost interest in the ball so when the steward of the palace announces the names of the ladies in front of them, his mind was somewhere off thinking how on Earth he will find the little girl in the forest. He just came to his senses when his father the majesty called his attention in a soft voi
Erella felt uncomfortable sitting inside the carriage because Max was beside her with his gaze glued to her and at the same time patting her head. It seemed like it was forever that he didn't see her. If it was just fine with her, Max also wanted her to sit on his lap. But she just rejected him because her heart couldn't take it if she will sit on his lap. 'Geez!?' His attitude change a hundred degrees from earlier!' Erella thought unhappily. "You are really adorable with your dress." Max complimented happily then patted her head again. Erella rolled her eyes and shook her head. 'It was just minutes ago when you flinched and pushed me when I hugged you. Then now, you want to stick at me like glue.' She murmured and thought about earlier before she got in the carriage. Fifteen minutes ago... Max was anxiou
"So they don't want to hide anymore," Erella said with a serious face. She already felt them when their carriage was going back to Von Heinlein Duchy even though they were trying to hide their presence. But she just ignored them because they are not doing anything to them. Max's eyebrows were knitted together when he heard what Erella said. 'What? They don't want to hide anymore? Does it mean they were already following us from the beginning?' Max thought, feeling disappointed in himself because he didn't feel their presence. 'Damnit! I need to train hard more so I can protect Erella!' He murmured. Max suddenly became vigilant when he felt a great deal of ominous mana outside their carriage. Then all of a sudden, Max held Erella in his arms and flew out of the carriage. When Max landed his feet on the ground the carriage was suddenly cut in half. A big bat monster threw a wind attack on their carriage and it cut in
"Ekkkk!Kekekekek!" Jubatus the giant bat was startled when he saw Erella on his back. But after a few moments, he went back to his senses and he went mad knowing that a little lowly human was on his back. He could never imagine that a lowly human could ride on his back. Surely, his brethren back in devildom will laugh at him if they will know that a weak-looking human was able to ride on him. Just thinking about it, made him more furious. "How dare a lowly human sit on my back!" He groaned loudly. Then he flew higher into the sky to shake off the little girl but Erella was holding up firmly onto his back. It made him more furious. And an idea came to his mind. He flew fast straight to the ground to knock Erella but before he could do it, he felt the aura of the little girl become dangerous on his back. It felt like it could devour him. That was the first time he felt that kind of aura. It was more dominant and terrifying than the aura of their k
A cloud of dust and a tremor could be seen and felt after Jubatus pummeled Erella into the ground. "Ekekekekek! How arrogant you were earlier, but now in front of me you are just a powerless little brat! Ekekekekke!" Jubatus exclaimed proudly. Everyone was shocked by what happened, especially Max. Looking at the giant mallet that Jubatus was holding and the deep hole that it made when Erella was pummeled into it, made Max freeze in his place and was unable to fight the remaining bugbears. He could tell that Erella's body could not withstand the impact of the giant mallet that hit her because her power at the moment was just below the average of the wizards. So she could not put a strong spell on her to shield her from that giant mallet. Then he thought an unimaginable thing happened to Erella. His heart tightened that it feels he couldn't breathe. "E---Erella..No, no, no, please
"M--Max, I need to stabilize my mana so HIT ME WITH THE GIANT MALLET!" Erella exclaimed with all her strength. Max was momentarily confused. His mind couldn't understand what Erella was saying. "ARGH!"Erella groaned in pain once again. And she was still holding Max's collar. "I---I need the giant mallet!" Erella cried out. Max woke up from his daze and at that time he understood what Erella meant. So he laid her back gently onto the ground and in a flash, he went to Jubatus to get the giant mallet. But before he could get it from him, a herd of harpies and minotaurs came. He immediately looked back where Erella was. The harpies and the minotaurs were just a few meters away from her. "Damn!" He cursed and went back to Erella so he didn't have the chance to get the giant mallet from Jubatus. He needed to keep Erella away from them, especially from the harpies. Harpies like to eat young be
THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! Jubatus's heartbeat thumped abnormally after drinking the strengthening potion. It seemed like with every thump of his heart, his soul was escaping from him. Then he felt a sudden pain in his chest. "ARGHHHHHHHH!" Jubatus screamed in pain while holding his chest. Then fell hard on the ground that it made a big hole where he fell. Then he felt all his veins all over his body were wide open and his blood rush in the center of his heart. He kept on rolling and bending his body just to make it feel at ease. But still, it didn't work. It took five minutes before his body calmed down. And when it calmed down, his mouth let out a purple smoke. His normal size body went bulky and he felt he became ten times stronger than before. Then he stood up as if nothing happened to his body five minutes ago. "Hmmmmm." He muttered while checking his entire body. While checking his body, he kept on n
BOOM! A loud crash sound was made when Erella was thrown away by Jubatus' giant mallet. Then a big hollow was made from it. It was bigger than the first time Jubatus pummeled her into the ground. "Urgh! Dang, it!" Erella cursed after her body was buried under the ground and only her head was popping out the ground. She still wanted to curse more but then she felt comfy burying her body in the ground. "AHHHHHHHH! This feels cool and nice." She murmured. She wanted to stay in the ground because it felt like the ground was making her sleepy and the excruciating pain that she felt earlier seemed like it was just her imagination. When she recalled the pain she felt earlier, she hurriedly came out from the ground and check herself. She checked if her body was still in one piece because maybe her body already gotten severely injured because her mana was uncontrollably going wild earlier. When she saw only a few bruises were on he
