Edith's p.o.vI stood watching my Mistress as she sat where a circle and a pentagram was drawn on the ground. On each end of the pentagram was a lit candle. Her legs were crossed, and the holy sword was floating right in front of her. Below it was the ancient dark book of spells and magic.Her form was one which I wasn't comfortable with, the faceless form.She was sweating, and she looked tired, yet she couldn't stop to eat or rest.Dark energy was coming from the book and entering the sword. The first few hours she had to change into her second form and ask me to bring a bow of animal blood which I complied with, then she asked me to leave the room which I did. But after hours I decided to return because I was concerned about her well-being.The door was locked from the inside and a barrier was put up that only the demon king, the queen and I could penetrate.She wanted no one to disturb her and I too would have been among them if not that she needed me to help out with some of her

Ducan's p.o.v I was woken up by a loud ringing sound in my ear. I slowly sat upright on the bed and looked at Eleanor who was still asleep. Not only was I uncomfortable I felt uneasy. I groaned softly then slowly moved to the edge and got up. "What is it?" I asked huskily knowing that the ringing I had heard was a secret calling from the ancient witch. "The holy sword." Her response came. "I'll be there in a minute," I answered calmly. I was about to move when I heard Eleanor yawn. "Ducan." She called softly. I turned and looked at her. She was rubbing her eyes while moving to sit upright. "Who were you talking to?" She asked in a low tone. "Iris, she wants to have a word with me about the holy sword," I answered honestly. "Can I come along?" She asked. "I think it's urgent, and you have just woken up so...." "Please." She whispered, cutting me off. "Fine," I answered feeling defeated. There was no refusing her when she said please in such a tone. She moved from the be

Zara's p.o.v"Is it still okay for me to spend a night here?" I asked Victor seriously.He looked at me and then nodded.Ever since Iris locked the door, I couldn't go in or open it, that's why I went back to the demon fairies and asked them to take me in for a day or two. At first, they hesitated but later on gave in when Victor talked to them.For the past few days, I dearly missed Iris and at night I did my best to train with Oni to keep my mind off of her.I sighed loudly then leaned against the sofa."What's wrong with you?" Victor asked."Nothing," I answered without looking at him."It can't be, nothing when you have been sighing for quite some time now, this is the seventh time." He pointed out."I'm exhausted from night training." I lied."You can't be serious, you only began training recently." He said loudly.I looked at him and then sat upright."I miss her," I answered in a low tone."You mean your witch lover?" He asked."Yes," I answered sadly."I'm sure she does too."

Hero's p.o.v "No slacking and no holding back," I whispered under my breath. I was more than ready to fight and take down the demon king. Not only was I furious and disgusted with his kind, I also wasn't going to let any of them live. The hero that took down the late demon king was reckless and stupid. How could he let his child survive?. Did he not know that he would grow up!?. For years, I had trained my mind, body, and heart to be the best I could be. I was immune to all mind tricks and illusions. Unlike the first hero, I was very ambitious, and I saw what I could become with the blessed maiden beside me. I was going to end the demon kingdom and take the blessed maiden for myself. Once she would bear my child, I would then toss her to my three lead warriors who would take turns with her and make her conceive. The three of us would become invisible, and I would be a damn god who everyone could fear and pray to. Just the thought itself made me chuckle. The excitement I felt was

Hero's p.o.v I quickly got off the horse in shock looking at the lifeless, headless bodies on the ground. In front of me was a pool of blood of the village warriors. Richie stood with his hand wrapped around his waist like he was in pain. I angrily matched where he was and grabbed him by the neck. "Who did this!" I asked at the top of my voice. He coughed then dropped his sword and grabbed my hand removing it from his neck. "That stupid whore did this!" He answered furiously. This was the first time I was hearing him curse right in front of me. He was very angry that I could see. "Are you telling me that only one woman did all this to our warriors?" I asked in disbelief. "Yes sir. It is hard to believe, but it was a woman. Not only was she strong, but she also used dark magic." He reported. I tightened my grip on my sword and then patted his shoulder with my free hand. "I don't care how strong she is, I'm taking her down," I whispered then walked ahead leaving him in JD's ca
