A few minutes had passed by ever since Jiniya and Alistair had left the academy, their trip was silent until they reached the busy street. The night was about to come, there were fewer people who were outside. Those who were on the other hand were either eating dinner or taking a stroll.
Their journey was supposed to be a silent ride until they reached the palace, until the princess had suddenly asked a question. A sudden traffic then appeared in front of them delaying their time of arrival.
“Captain Alister, what commotion is happening inside the palace?” Jiniya asked. Her eyes gazing upon a restaurant filled with nobles, all joyously eating their high quality meal, cooked by high grade chefs.
“I am not allowed to speak about it, dear princess” Alistair replied.
Jiniya sat quietly in front of her mirror, as her maids changed her clothes and brushed her hair. Her face emotionless and empty eyes looking at her figure on the reflective mirror. It's been years ever since Lyon gave her that dead glance. "Princess, please stand up…" one of the maids asked. The sound of the explosion brought her back to her usual self. She glanced at the door as the ground was suddenly shooked, not knowing she was undressed she ran towards the door. But was immediately stopped by her maids, she forcefully tried to get their hands off of her. She was pulled and tossed to her bed, coughing and cowering. Tears running down her eyes, she was in pain. The maids didn't know what to do, they were trained to take care of the Princess both physically and ment
"They all become guinea pigs, experimented on, mutilated, used as feeders, women who were captured are tortured, raped and used to give birth to more guinea pigs for their experiments! Now tell me captain, which of us is really inhuman?!" Arthur shouted face to face on the captain. Horrified, the captain suddenly dropped to his knees. Speechless on what he had just heard. He was just a newly assigned captain for the 12th squadron who guards the army on a marquess's domain further to the south west of the kingdom, which was near the Gluttire Forest. Most of the Captains were already informed through investigation in the selected few that Arthur had chosen. The Invidian Palace was known to experiment on humans, trying to modify their genes. Their goal was to create beings that could be considered as deities but failed again and aga
Staring at the ceiling. Light enters the room from a small square window inside a small cramped room. An armour stand placed in front the bed, a small table to the right just below the window, a small space for movement on the left. And a one way wooden door further to the left end of the room. Yawning as the bits of sunlight shone open his face climbing from his soft white pillow, Lyon had woken up from his slumber. He sat down and started combing his hair with his hand before drinking a glass of water placed on the table beside him. He stood up on the small space to the left and stared at the gray wall that was in front of him. He started tilting his head side to side counting to eighteen before shifting to his arms, then legs. It was his morning routine of stretching to start the day, before fixing the whi
"We need to go to the Forbidden Library right now!" Lyon said with a loud voice. "But-" "There's no time Princess, I need answers now!" Emotionally confused, she didn't know what to do. It may seem like an act of disrespect for someone like Lyon to order her around but she, of all people knows his situation. When she could no longer think of an answer the Princess simply nodded and helped Lyon to get back on his feet. She lifted up her dress raising its end to knee height before running like her life was on the line. Lyon followed behind her. The two passed by numerous notable people from The head maid, guards, knights, and a few nobles. But before they could even reach the library's entrance they passed by the commander who seemed to be concentrating on the book
“Who would’ve thought that Lyon would be one of the few,” Arthur said, walking from an aisle between two large shelves with a thick book in his hand. Smirking as he got closer to the two. “G-g-good Morning Commander!!” Alister immediately saluted. As he stopped his hands from feeling the wall. Arthur walked closer to them and stood beside the princess as he stared directly at the wall where the path should’ve existed. Arthur on the other hand started to giggle immediately dropping the book, leaning forward and backward with his hands on his chest and stomach pressing against his long-sleeved shirt. Tears formed in his eyes as his giggles became laughter that echoed throughout the large library. “You helped him, didn't you!! You helped him!!” He screamed.
“Shit!” Lyon cursed as he ran as fast as he could towards the stadium to find the gates closed and not a single guard was present. He could already hear the battle commencing from the outside as the participants chanted their attacks and the crowd cheered in joy.He ran around the stadium towards the other entrance but there was no one to find as well, he glanced at his surroundings. No stall could be seen as well despite the event being something that was watched by the whole kingdom. Putting a little more effort he ran on last time towards the last possible entrance. He sighed in relief as he saw stalls in the distance with people wandering around. He quickly made his way towards the entrance and was halted by one of the guards.“Ticket please” the guard asked.
Arthur was amazed by the cyclone's ability to grow to the size of a pillar in such a small time. While wind magic may not be rare, it is much harder to control and master than the other elements. Lyon struggled as he ran back and forth catching those who were thrown in the air, while protecting the still unconscious Ursula. Knights had started to interfere by defending the audiences from chunks of the flooring that was thrown by the cyclone.“Well isn’t this a wonderful scenery” Arthur said as he stood above the stone wall glancing at everyone from above.“If my citizens are harmed, you’re be the one to take all the blame, Arthur”“Of course your highness, if there is even a single death then I will surely place my head in the guillo
"Aaaarghhhh!!" She screamed in agony as her skin began to crack revealing white light from inside her body. Lyon was astounded, speechless as he watched the poor student who was meeting a very horrible end. She paused, her body standing frozen with her arms wrapped around her with her mouth wide-open revealing more of this unknown white light. "It might be rude of me to say this… but I, Arthur, Commander of the Royal Knights, Adviser to the King. Accuse your actions as treason towards the kingdom and his highness. Thus, your family shall be stripped of their noble status and become slaves. It will be passed on as long as your bloodline continues to exist. Without further ado, I shall be the one to sever your head…" Arthur announced. At one of the pathways towards the exit people started coming back, they watched as Arthur pulled out his blade. With a blink of an eye Arthur was already behind the girl with his blade
