“Mistress, I don’t think it is wise to move her yet, the lady is still unwell,” Rebecca pleads while she was patting the woman’s back.
The so-called lady Kaya was still like a doll, unmoving, unresponsive, and almost lifeless when the apprentice witch was trying to pull her up.“I do not care if she is unwell or not, what I care is that I do not end up being burned to ashes,” she scolds not wanting to experience that torture again.She knew they only had little time before the guards began searching the inner confines of the mansion.They’ve managed to stall for that long after allowing the prince’s men into their laboratory during those first investigations but now that it's come to this, there was no other place where they would be able to hide their experiments.“Mistress, what about the others, what shall we do with them?” Verna asks pointing at the warlocks thatAs the attacks were happening outside, Lilian quickly moved towards the shaking apprentice. If what the magic council said was true, there was still a chance for her to redeem their coven. It would now all depend on her finding the prince’s lady and making her talk.“What is wrong with you and where are the prisoners!” She hissed, shaking the young witch who was still dumbfounded.The whole room was literally empty which was a surprise since there were so many relics there a while ago, along with dozens of crates that contained their prisoners. It was only when she caught a waft of magic that was in the air. Pushing the young witch aside, she began looking around to see where it was coming from.Nothing could be seen within the four corners of the room, yet she could still feel that there was another presence there with them.Her blood coiled sensing the gaze that was being directed to her, it felt like ice was cr
With Serene’s shriek, her wraiths dashed towards lady Kaya, pinning the woman in her place. Verna then started hurling several balls of fire at her, laughing with each explosion that would hit.It seemed the two apprentices were enjoying themselves, letting their rage out, as the two had their own issues with the said woman.It was no secret that Serene and Verna were both Jealous of lady Kaya. Like the other concubines, they held a strong resentment for the woman. All because the prince would always mention her name. Even when he would lay with them, there would be instances that the man would accidentally mistake them for her. Their anger was fueled even more at the truth, that as long as the woman was alive, they would never have a chance with the prince. Proof of that was the fact that they still needed the woman’s essence, just to seduce their liege.And for that reason, the two women were hell-bent on killing the l
One by one the phantom warriors fall, none was able to even lay a single scratch on Alexander even at his current form. The prince could not help but get irritated, feeling tricked into fighting the soldiers that didn’t even manage to put up a proper battle for him.“Where is that warrior? This can’t be it, where are the more powerful phantoms!” He groaned, gnawing his teeth as he saw that there were barely any phantoms left.Though there were more enemies than before, his soldiers were easily able to fend them off, being the lower kinds that they used to take on before.“Sire, perhaps it dared not to show its face again, after going through that humiliating defeat against you,” lord Slog quickly states as he looks around checking on things.“No, I can feel it, that warrior is here somewhere.” Alexander’s guts were telling him that it was nearby, as he could feel the chill in hi
“You did not answer my question, my lady. Where have you been hiding all this time?” Alexander’s voice deepened.Since there was no longer any reason to deny his secret, he no longer dared to answer. All he wanted now was to get answers to what had happened to her. Wanting to know what she had been doing while he had been worrying all this time.That cause Kaya to almost burst out laughing, but she still manage to hold on to it as she gave Alexander a mocking glare.“For a powerful warrior and an amazing lier, you’re still quite a dunce aren’t you,” she says letting out a smirk.That made all the people there gape, eyes balling out from the woman's words. They could not comprehend if it was just sheer boldness or foolishness but it was obvious that her words were full of anger and hatred.“How...How dare you!” Lord Slog tried to retaliate, pointing a finger at the l
Alexander kept jumping from one place to another, dodging every spear and sword that came at him. He tried to defeat as many enemies as he can while moving, trying to help his men who were having a hard time fighting against the phantom warriors. Even while doing all of those things, he still did not lose his main goal, and that was to reach Kaya at all costs.“Come and let's see you save your precious witch,” Kaya screamed out loud, mocking the man to force him to get closer.The energy kept bursting forth from her body together with the emergence of several more phantom soldiers, making it hard to get close.Though it seemed like she was unstoppable, Alexander knew how much power is being drained from her body. He noticed the sudden quivering of Kaya’s lips, every time she’d create new phantom soldiers.Not wanting to waste any more time, Alexander lunges forward, covering himself with his dark energ
Karilaya was using her hands to crawl, her legs suddenly gave up, the moment that she had landed back on the ground. Thankfully, she did not sustain any wound, she was just totally weak from using too much of her power.“Kaya!” Alexander’s voice boomed.Kaya’s eyes grew wide as she turned to see where the voice was coming from. She was only able to breathe a sigh of relief seeing the dust and debris that were still covering the place where they fell. It made it hard for her to see anything which only meant that the man was also the same. She took that chance to keep moving, summoning all her remaining strength to move, not wanting to get caught by the prince.She did not expect that even with her current power the man would still be able to overpower her. Sensing that her magic was almost out, Kaya decided it was better to retreat for now. She moved a nearby crevice, quickly covering herself with a spell in order to conc
After the disappearance of lady Kaya, prince Alexander went into an uncontrollable rage. To try to quell their liege's anger, lord Slog had created a search party, using a third of their army.For months, the prince’s soldiers went in search of the lady to no avail. The whole hunt was only forced to a halt when the changing environment of the land became more of a hindrance.A year had passed, the lady Kaya's whereabouts remained unknown. And on that year, half of the empire’s forces marched out of the castle, returning to the west. The witches, due to their transgression was left to tend to the remaining forces. As punishment, they had to keep the city of Lusha in tack with the remaining forces that they had, until the prince returns.A few months after Prince Alexander left the kingdom of Aselaysia, he had begun another bloody war within the empire. Now setting his eyes on the northern part of their land, the said last remaining area that
“Princess?” A voice greeted her upon entering the room.“Yes,” Karilaya immediately stopped her reading and raised her head to look at the woman.It was Soraya, with a gloomy face as she purse her lips. “The Count is here to see you, again,” she sighed before moving aside to show the man who was standing behind her.Count Sanser Lee bowed down with a wide smile on his face. After years in hiding, he was one of the few remaining lords of the Aselaysian kingdom who were left to start the revolution against the empire. Having managed to gather a small army and being able to band together with a few other lords, the man was now confident about starting their revolt.Karilaya heaves out a sigh, pressing a hand on her temple. “How many times do I need to tell you, it’s a no,” she firmly states with a bored look as she stared straight into the man’s eyes. “I have no interest to j
