CHAPTER 24 - SACRED GROUND
MALAIKA’S temperature went high, and she was in a convulsive state. Helga panicked as Frode kept on telling her to calm down.
“This is my fault if only I hadn’t forced her to learn magic.” Helga held Malaika’s forehead, and her body temperature would not subside despite giving her a cold compress.
“Take it easy, Helga. Mala couldn’t properly harness her powers yet. That’s why it happened. At least now we know she’s special.” Frode stretched his arm and held his wife’s hand.
“I-I must be imagining, but Mala could summon the water without incantation. How can it be possible?”
Frode heaved a sigh. “I don’t know. But it’s dangerous to keep her here. Everyone in this village has heard about the melting of the lake.”
“What are we going to do?”
“Once the snowstorm abated, I’ll hide her. Don&rs

Malaika CHAPTER 25 - AUCTION
THE generals of two territories fought with the swarming of enemies near the Bridge on the border of Hala and Axum. The Halan guards on border patrols were dumbfounded by sudden attacks coming from the other side.General Iljun of Hala immediately came to the rescue when the shifter from Valin’s squad, who happened to be one of the aerial guards of the delegates, reported that they were ambushed only an hour after they had sent the warriors to the border. They even assumed that the representatives led by Commander Alleki were in danger as they traveled to Baraf.The aerial squad did not cross the Bridge since they didn’t have a proper invitation to go to Axum.They were severely wounded, and Iljun’s army tended them until they fully recovered.“Let’s finish this, General Rikrus,” Iljun murmured to the elf general who stood beside him.Rikrus had already been fighting when he arrived along
Malaika CHAPTER 26 - RAGE
MALAIKA spent the whole day practicing with Helga and Frode. And her progress was quick. The frozen pool was already in its liquid state that Xoxo enjoyed swimming there.The magical creature kept on congratulating her, and it was happy with her improvement. “Let’s go hunting, Mala. It’s a good exercise, and you can try to use your water summoning.” Frode said the following day. “I would love to!” “Be careful, be sure to be back before dusk.” Helga reminded them. “See you later, my love.” Frode kissed his wife before going out with Malaika. The two went outside the cave. They were immediately greeted by the frigid blast of the icy wind. Xoxo rested under Malaika’s thick fur cloak, not giving them warmth unlike before. They were on their own to survive in this freezing temperature. They walked for three long hours until they found a lone moose that seemed lost. It was massive, and its lo
Malaika CHAPTER 27 - UNCAGED
“FIGHT!” the announcer was more hyper than usual when he gave the signal to start the skirmish. The crowd was delighted at placing higher bets on the two champions.At a glance, they presumed that the challenger teams were weak because they were not as muscular as the shifter defeaters. Darkis attempted to fight, but Seti held his arms to stop him.He slowly lay down his sword.“You are getting us killed, Lioness!” There was a panic in the horse shifter’s eyes.“This is going to be over quick. Don’t move.” Seti was confident.“You are right, lady. This match will be over in a blink of an eye. We will ravish your body to satisfy our thirst, then you and your companions’ blood will spill here along with these weaklings!” said one of their opponents with a towering height. Probably around seven feet. He pointed out the dead bodies inside the cage, with their still
Malaika CHAPTER 28 - WELCOME
MALAIKA gasped as she awoke near Helga, who was in her deep slumber. Bright purple flowers surrounded her body as she lay to rest on the sacred ground of the cave.“Xoxo….” She tried to look for her magical creature. It was on her shoulder as if studying the dead body of Helga.“H-Help her, please. Give her a speck of your power and make her heart beating again.” She pleaded.No amount of magic can revive the dead, princess.Xoxo’s voice was unmistakable.Her eyes welled again. She walked towards Helga and kneeled. Her hands touched her pale face, and it was still warm.Malaika began to sob.Helga’s neck was surrounded by thick tiger fur, and her wound was not visible.It was her fault. If she didn’t get involved with her, they might be living in peace in their village until now. But because the couple helped her, their life was jeopardized. S
Malaika CHAPTER 29 - ETHERA
MALAIKA and Frode reached Ethera after two days of travel. He suggested dropping by the market before proceeding to the stadium where the fight would be held.“Stay here. We can’t attract crowds in this clothing.” Frode jumped down from the saddle of his elk. He walked towards her and helped her remove her thick fur cloak.“Thanks. Please hurry. I’m getting impatient.”Frode nodded. They traveled continuously with only minimal rest to reach here immediately. However, Frode would train her magic control along the way.And she was glad to learn the basics of manipulating the water to harden it.Malaika looked at Xoxo, who was asleep, curling in her neck. The magical creature had been a great help to her. The lady who gifted it was so generous. She must be an ancient cave-dweller, and her magic remnants remained.She noticed the temperature in Ethera was warmer yet colder compare
Malaika CHAPTER 30 - GREEN-EYED KILLER
“I HAVE seen a lone fighter. I was shocked to see she was a young girl! She only entered the tournament yesterday, but she had been fighting non-stop!” Hadir exclaimed to everyone. He was tasked to gather information in the stadium.Seti and Pierre glanced at each other. The lioness could not hide her excitement. “Have you seen her? Tell us what she looks like.”“She looked innocent yet mystifying. Her emerald eyes contain unfathomable hatred. She had been killing her opponents.”Valin dived in. “What’s her name again?”“Alfreda Herfst from Northern Axum. You guys should be wary of her. She’s a beast hiding in a young girl’s body. She is merciless. Even her magic is godly. She must be an offspring of royal blood out of wedlock!” Hadir’s eyes were wide. He had seen the battle on the second floor, and now the girl quickly advanced to the third floor to fa
Malaika CHAPTER 31 - HAVOC
VALIN stood in the middle as they formed their defensive formation. He silently studied his teammates, who were a bit worn out because of the four non-stop fighting. And now they were facing six magic-user elves with their mana still full.The captain glanced around the massive stadium. He could see the wealthy elves giving their opponents a hefty amount of bets. And there was Travion, whose face was worried. He was seated beside Attisha and Darkis, who seemed to be praying to the Water Goddess.The warriors from Hala were at a disadvantage from the numbers alone. The group battle had a maximum member of six, and right now, the shifters were only four. Granted that they were elite fighters from Hala, they could not underestimate their enemies. They didn’t know what kind of water magic they could wield.Valin had seen different kinds of water magic. Some possessed a simple technique to summon it, and some could change its properties like
Malaika CHAPTER 32 - NEW PLAN
MALAIKA slowly gasped as she regained consciousness, and her worried friends’ faces came into view. Her eyes welled up in tears as she saw Seti and Attisha crying, looking down at her.“I thought we lost you.” Seti gave her a warm hug, and Attisha did the same.“We missed you.” Attisha sobbed.“I survived…” she whispered.Malaika was grateful that they were all reunited at last. She gently stroked their backs and felt their warmth to ensure this was not a dream. It had been so long since she had seen them.It was by accident when she witnessed them in that battle. She went down the lower floor to survey the wealthy elves who own a shifter oppressing them. And Malaika thought she imagined things when she saw Captain Valin and Madar shift to their bird form and try to hit their enemy’s neck when she gazed at the arena.Malaika was even more surprised to recognize
